Everyone from Feng Jing's Team had just woken up. Some took a short bath while some started preparing for breakfast and some started their routined morning exercises. But for some reason, today their leader seems to have woken up from the wrong side of his bed. He had a grumpy expression as soon as he got out of his tent. Seeing a frown on his beautiful face as soon as he appeared caused silence and tension in the area.
Everyone from the group tries to pretend not to see his bad mood in the morning. Only the innocent Solaris Vega approached him fearlessly and asked why he looked like that.
Solaris Vega asked worriedly, "Leader, are you hurting somewhere? Or did you have a nightmare? Your expression looks bad..."
"It's nothing like that. I just felt unease since I woke up. Something doesn't feel right. As if... As if something happens to my other half. It is making me feel... Extremely uncomfortable." said Feng Jing as he grabs the clothes above his heart, he feels a wrenching pain inside him for some unknown reason.
Anxiety is filling up his mind and restlessness spreads all over his body. It is something he hasn't felt ever since he got back his memories.
Everyone who had heard Feng Jing's explanation was also confused by his words. But everyone could see he is serious with that frown on his beautiful face. The only ones who could understand him are Tang Si, Si Shen, and Wu Liu who have been paired with their Sentinels and have been marked permanently.
Si Shen and Wu Liu looked at the eldest guide in their group wanting him to explain it to Feng Jing. Tang Si stopped what he was cooking with the rest and approached Feng Jing then sat near him.
Tang Si asked, "Lord Jing, can you answer a few of my questions honestly?"
"Go ahead," replied Feng Jing.
"You have a fiance, right? Did you get a permanent mark from him?" asked Tang Si.
"I only received a temporary one before coming here."
"A temporary mark? Are you sure? Because what you are feeling right now means there is something wrong with your other half. Anxiety can be felt by the guide once something happens to their sentinel. But you have no permanent mark, it is weird that you are feeling like this... Hm? Lord Jing, what is that under your eye? A black no... it's fading to a grey color... is that a snowflake?" said Tang Si.
Once Tang Si mentioned the black snowflake, which usually only appears when one of the soul bonded pairs is in danger, Feng Jing finally panicked at this moment. He immediately looked for something and looked at his face and really found a light gray snowflake on his face.
Feng Jing finally showed a different expression than his usual fake gentleness or calmness. This time the emotions of panic, anger, and anxiety can be seen within his eyes.
"That bastard. What the hell is he doing!?" exclaimed Feng Jing as a burst of his spiritual qi was felt in the whole camp.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe aura which is tightly sealed was spreading in the whole area making his teammates tremble with the huge gap of strength between them. Everyone thought they didn't deserve to stand before the presence of Feng Jing and couldn't help but avert their eyes to avoid Feng Jing.
'What is this?! I can't... breathe...'
'Is this caused by Lord Jing's aura!?'
'S-So strong! I'm already an SSS-ranked Sentinel but feel helpless before Lord Jing's strength!'
Feng Wu knew that his lord was about to lose it. After all, Lord Hei only loses control whenever his husband is involved.
"Please calm down, my lord," said Feng Wu who was also a bit out of breath in the presence of the overbearing aura Feng Jing had released just now.
Only when Feng Wu finally spoke out that Feng Jing realized that he had overdone it. He took back his aura and apologized to his teammates but he had already brought out the armor that his family prepared for him. It's red and white armor with the insignia of the phoenix.
"I'm going out for a bit. Look after the team for me Feng Wu," said Feng Jing but even before he could take his leave something had fallen from the sky.
BBBAAAMM!!
A huge black dragon carrying five soldiers in armor had fallen from above them. The dragon and the soldiers all have red eyes as if they had gone crazy. Feng Jing, Feng Wu, and Bai Yuyan knew what kind of state these soldiers were in.
Han Ling recognized one of them. "Lieutenant General Xue!?"
Qu Yeon exclaimed, "A black dragon king? Isn't that Marshal Sirius's quantum beast!?"
[L-Lord Jing... M-Master... Help my master!]
The black dragon king's voice resounded within the camp before his eyes turned red and went crazy like the other soldiers.
ROAAAR!!
ARRRGGGHHH!!!
Feng Wu said, "This is...!!?"
"It's the same from before. Are they in the state of Mania!!?" said Bai Yuyan.
Everyone was startled when they heard that these soldiers whom they had seen before were now in a state of mania.
Feng Jing's face immediately turned cold when he witnessed this scene. He summoned his quantum beast regardless of his identity as a guide being out for everyone to know. As he knew that only his Reine could calm down the raging black dragon king not far from them.
"REINE! Purify that stupid's snake's spiritual domain!" commanded Feng Jing as a huge and beautiful Phoenix-dragon hybrid appeared out of thin air.
Everyone was left in awe upon seeing Feng Jing's quantum beast for the first time. Of course, not only his teammates were shocked. Even those senior soldiers watching at the monitoring of their battleship were shocked to see a hybrid beast of both a phoenix and a dragon.
[As you command, Master!]
CCCAAAWWWWSSS~~
ROOOAAARRSS~~
They watched as the huge phoenix subdued the raging black dragon and went to the corner. As soon as the huge bird appeared all the attention of the mad dragon had fallen onto the phoenix and surrounded all sides of the phoenix preventing it from leaving. But the Phoenix didn't struggle to escape, instead of getting closer to the head of the dragon purring as it comforted the pain of the dragon's sufferings.
Everyone knew that when two quantum beasts act this way means that they've treated each other as their pair. This is also the mirror image of their owners' relationship. Only then did everyone realize that Feng Jing's Sentinel is none other than the strongest of all its kind. The youngest marshal in the whole empire, Altair Sirius.
Tang San with a twitching smile on his face, "I-Is this for real?"
"No wonder he is so strong as a guide," said Tang Yi.
Tang Si murmured, "If he is an above SSS ranked Guide then even with a temporary mark, it is possible to share the connection between them."
"Fuck! Doesn't that mean that clingy guy who always glares at us when we get closer to the leader is Marshal Altair!!!?" exclaimed Han Ling.
Qu Yul said, "I-I spoke to... the M-Marshal!!?"
Feng Jing scolded his teammates who were left dumbstruck by the situation. Even ignoring the five soldiers who were to attack them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What are you guys doing!? Subdue these soldiers for me!!" ordered Feng Jing.
Upon hearing a stern voice from Feng Jing, everyone noticed the crazy sentinels about to attack them due to their mania state. The Sentinels in the group had worked together to capture the five crazy soldiers. The guides were about to help calm the mania of the soldiers when Feng Jing stopped them.
Feng Jing, "Guides don't enter their minds to calm them down. In the state of mania, their spiritual domain would be like a stormy raging sea. You would drown and suffer a backlash. Inject them with sleeping serum and force them to enter the slumber state and contact the people from the Federation and Fallen Gods Unit!"
Those who were smart enough had looked for the monitoring camera signed to their group but because of its invisibility option, they couldn't see it but feel. Shi Wen, Shi Lou, Bai Yuyan, and Feng Wu helped with putting the mad soldiers to sleep. Among them, only Tang Si with special eyes could pinpoint the exact location of the monitoring camera and capture it instantly.
Tang Si approached Solaris Vega who was hiding behind Lin Yven in fear, "Xiao Vega can you please turn off the invisibility mode of this camera."
"Ah! Yes, please give me a few seconds," said Solaris Vega who used his working glasses to be able to see through the invisibility mode of the surveillance camera.
After a few seconds of tinkering the invisibility mode of the camera had been deactivated and he passed it back to Tang Si.
"Here you go, Senior Si. I have also made sure that the energy wouldn't run out and you would be able to use it to connect your call to every monitoring device on this planet and those within the 1000 radius area outside the planet," said Solaris Vega.
Tang Si pats the innocent yet intelligent young man before him, "Thank you, Xiao Vega." Then he started a video call to connect to the Fallen Gods Unit monitoring room. The conversation between them was broadcasted all around the planet including in the Star Network of the Oberion Empire.
On the other hand, Feng Jing approached Xue Ying with red eyes glaring at him. He didn't allow someone to put this man to sleep as he needed to know the situation of his man from this person. Everyone had witnessed as he grabbed Xue Ying's head with his hand and closed his eyes. His dominant spiritual qi entered Xue Ying's head unhindered, purifying the miasma within his spiritual domain.
He didn't venture deeply within Xue Ying's soul domain as he wasn't his partner. Forcing himself to enter the domain of Xue Ying would mean invading his privacy and as someone, not his spouse he had no right for it. But the slight purification he had done within Xue Ying's mind had somewhat allowed Xue Ying to take back his control over his mind.
Xue Ying with red eyes yet a calm mind saw his cousin standing in front of him. He realized that Roi had successfully brought them over to Feng Jing.
Feng Jing spoke, "Ying-ge, I cannot completely subdue your mania for you but I could somewhat allow you to maintain a calm mind. Please meditate as soon as possible to remove the mania state you are in."
"X-Xiao Jing? You can help... one calm down in their Mania state even if you are not... their partner?" said Xue Ying.
Feng Jing said, "Yes. But this will only work for a few 3 hours at most. You still need to meditate and remove the traces of miasma within your soul domain yourself. Either that or ask your guide to help you purify it."
"Ha,~ 3 hours is enough. Thank you, Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng, I really don't want to say this as you are as important as the marshal to me but... The Marshal's life is in danger and only you as his guide could help him calm down from his mania.
Xiao Jing, go to the central region. The marshal had blocked the enemies to allow us to escape. Within that region, zergs of higher ranks live there. I do not know whether the marshal was captured or not. Please... Please save the marshal, Feng Jing." said Xue Ying.
Feng Jing smiled and said, "Ying-ge, please leave it to me. I will save my other half myself." Then a pair of wings made of fire appeared behind his back and flew away alone to save his lover.
Everyone had also witnessed the real strength of Feng Jing who revealed to the world that he is a guide and a guide that is paired with Marshal Sirius. The whole Interstellar World was shocked by what they had just witnessed. An SSS-ranked Guide who is only 18 years.
