Lynne never expected to see her master, the dignified Divine Ice Phoenix Empress, fear anything in the world, let alone fear Leon.
Although she didn't understand why her master seed fearful towards Leon, Lynne had to show her master that there was nothing to fear.
In a few monts, Lynne resud rushing towards Leon. In that instant, Leon also dispersed his Nihility Barrier before catching Lynne in his arms.
The ice mountain lost the forr intensity of its coldness after Lynne completely refined the Celestial Ice Spark.
"I missed you so much~!" Lynne expressed her joy in Leon's arms. But then, she quickly added, "But what are you doing here?"
"I went to look for you. What else?" Leon replied with a slight smile.
As Leon and Lynne enjoyed their reunion after a period of separation, the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress observed everything without a sound.
If she were in control of Lynne's, she wouldn't even dare to breathe, let alone utter a single squeak.
At the very least, she would be on her best behavior. Or rather, she would pretend she didn't even exist while she was in such proximity to soone who has control over nihility.
Nevertheless, she shared Lynne's senses, so she felt rather strange while they interacted.
anwhile, Lynne gradually noticed the dark creases on Leon's forehead. He didn't seem to be all that excited to see her again—or rather, sothing was troubling his mind.
"What's the matter? Is sothing bothering you? Are you not happy to see again?" Lynne asked.
"Happy? Of course, I am happy. We haven't seen each other for more than a month," Leon replied with a slight smile.
Alas, if such lines were heard in the Divine Realm, many would scoff at him for being a softie.
It was common for couples to separate for years or even hundreds of years before eting again while pursuing the everlasting.
Nevertheless, Leon shortly sighed and said, "Do you understand what it ans to refine the Celestial Ice Spark? It will limit your future, Lynne."
"Ah, so you were worried about this," Lynne smiled brightly after realizing Leon wasn't excited because he was worried for her.
"You don't have to worry about this. My master made sure such a thing wouldn't be an issue during my refinent," Lynne assured him shortly after.
However, Leon was imdiately surprised by the revelation.
"Your… master? When did you have a master?" Leon wondered with astonishnt.
Furthermore, a master who can resolve the Celestial Sparks' side effects had to be an extraordinary person. However, Leon had his doubts.
The events that led Lynne to the heart of the ice mountain; Leon didn't doubt he had sothing to do with this 'master' she ntioned.
He did not believe this 'master' was a living person. In fact, he suspected Lynne awakened the soul fragnt of a True Divinity.
Nevertheless, Lynne did not intend to keep any secrets from Leon. He was her confidant, lover, and family.
Who else besides him could she entrust with her secrets?
"Mm!" Lynne nodded.
"My master is the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress, the ruler of the ice phoenix race from the primordial era. My master awakened when artificial spirit energy erged from beneath the World Tree."
"So it was the soul fragnt of a True Divinity after all," Leon uttered before frowning in the next mont. "However, at that ti, you shouldn't have been achieved Transcendence yet."
Seeing the puzzled look on Leon's face, Lynne understood what he was pondering.
"I know what you are thinking, Leon. I've also heard about it from my master," Lynne stated.
"Awakeners only have a chance of awakening their True Divinity's soul fragnt during the Transcendent Realm, the realm when Awakeners beco closer in touch with their laws. This also resonates with the soul fragnt of True Divinity slumbering inside them."
"The stronger the True Divinity, the earlier Transcendents will awaken their soul fragnt. However, my master also said it is equally true when the True Divinity has a less fragnted soul. Fewer soul fragnts an less division in the True Divinity's thought process."
"My master couldn't completely avoid the fragntation of her soul during the Great War, even with her divine ability of rebirth. However, she is one of the few True Divinities in Primal Chaos to exist with less than ten soul fragnts," Lynne explained.
"Even if that is the case, the soul fragnt awakening still occurred before you achieved Transcendence, did it not? How do you explain that?" Leon inquired with doubt.
"I believe that has sothing to do with my master's deep grudge for the devil race. The artificial spirit energy contains traces of a devil's energy and law. Thus, it must have triggered her awakening when it appeared," Lynne speculated.
"Ah?" Lynne exclaid after her master quietly whispered a few words to her. Then, she nodded, "I understand, Master."
"My master just said that she was already half-awakened from the awakening pills I ingested. She said I exchanged my lifespan to force her awakening earlier," Lynne conveyed the Divine Ice Phoenix Empress's ssage to Leon.
The Divine Ice Phoenix Empress didn't intend to say anything that would reveal her existence to Leon. However, her disciple exposed her. Thus, she had no choice but to add a few words, albeit through her disciple.
She didn't want to be Leon's enemy.
After all, she understood that her disciple was in a romantic relationship with this person. As such, her disciple would strongly resist her will if she wanted to kill the person.
The Divine Ice Phoenix Empress had no choice but to concede and choose peace even though she felt like the wielder of the Nihility Law had to be eliminated.
It wasn't too late to decide after observing the person's nature.
Nevertheless, after Leon listened to Lynne's words, he furrowed his brows with a pondering look.
"The Divine Ice Phoenix Empress bears a deep grudge against the devil race? I know that the Great War involved every party during the primordial era. However, I thought the beast race was more neutral before that," Leon ntioned.
Lynne received words from her master again before she nodded.
"My master said the keyword is 'was..' The devil race beca her mortal enemies during the Great War," Lynne stated.
