Heavenly Opposers

"Now we can talk"

After Valencia said so, only silence remained, both Xiao and Valencia just looking at each other, Valencia was silent because well she didn't know how to begin, all her life she never cared to think about how to be talkative or even care about another, while Xiao was forming ideas in his mind, thinking of ways how the current situation can benefit him, finally after a minute of silence Xiao spoke,

"How about we become friends?"

"Friends?"

Valencia replied with doubt in her voice, she never cared about the word 'friends' her talent was enough to make any living being in the cosmos jealous, she knew it was just a matter of time before which she would one day stand at the top of the world but she wasn't arrogant to believe that she could achieve things alone.

The heavenly Immortals still sat at their throne destroying lives and talents and if it wasn't for her master, she would have ended up dying alone, her talents stolen and her name lost within the sea of time, Valencia knew she needed people to win, people going through the same situation as her, people with...talent.

And looking at Xiao she could tell that his talent too is high but she couldn't tell how high, the damn treasure he's using was messing with her ability to 'see' but even then she never thought of having friends, all she ever thought of having is.....

"Allies"

She spoke, facing Xiao who was looking at her with keen interest, her naturally flowing charm having no effect,

"I don't need any friends, all I need are allies, people who I think are worthy of working alongside me"

"Oh?"

Xiao's smiled when he heard her arrogant words, she was just as he remembered her, arrogant and prideful but in this regard she had the right to be so, while she might be talking to him now the only reason so was because she deemed that his talent was 'not bad', thus granting him the chance of speaking with her.

In his first life, he didn't even get a word out of her, to her back then he might not have even been worth a grain of sand, unlike the truly cold Xuanyin, Valencia will change her tune depending on who she's dealing with, while she truly is cold, she doesn't believe its beneath her to use her beauty to her advantage, remembering the number of deaths she caused with just her beauty caused a cold wave to pass through Xiao's back,

'I have to be careful'

Xiao wasn't fooled by her current calm face but that doesn't also mean that he's afraid of her, it's just having her as an enemy is just a pain. Leaning forward Xiao smiled as he spoke,

"I'm interested in being your ally since now we hold each other's secrets, we can't harm each other, isn't it?"

"Yes, that's true"

Valencia nodded her head, her voice becoming lighter, she always preferred to deal with intelligent people, Xiao's smile widened seeing her agree, and with a touch of mischief he spoke,

"Why does someone so talented as you need allies, could it be that you want to deal with the HI?"

The moment the abbreviated words were heard, Valencia's eyes widened, and a powerful barrier rose from her body, effectively cutting both of them from the world itself, a powerful pressure like no other crushed onto Xiao's body, while a blurry image appeared above Valencia peering down at Xiao, Adria's eyes focused on Xiao, waiting to snuff his life at a moments notice,

"Speak, what do you know and who are you?"

Adria could accept the fact that Xiao knew about her existence the All-Seer had such ability but the truth of the heavenly Immortals and her true connection could not be known by anyone, only her and her disciple should know about it.

Meanwhile, Xiao calmly sat down, the pressure pressing down on him, didn't affect him much, he raised his head as he looked at the blurry image of the woman that once tried to fight against fate,

"Senior, do not worry about any intervention, I used the All-Seer to bend my fate in a small way, even if they want to they will not be able to get a grasp of what we are to say"

Hearing Xiao's words Adria calmed down a bit but the rest of what Xiao spoke spiked her,

"But I will not tell how I know the Heavenly Immortals true scheme"

"Do you think that I can't take it from you the hard way?"

Adria spoke with narrowed eyes, while Valencia had a hint of greed flashing through her eyes as she gazed at Xiao, the only treasure across the vast cosmos that can elude her eyes is in front of her, if she could get her hands on it, no one will be able to stop or oppose her,

"Yes you can take it the hard way but I can promise you that after my death Valencia won't live for long"

"Are you threatening me?"

Adria spoke, while the pressure on Xiao doubled, he just smirked as he replied,

"You should know senior the All-Seer is a weapon with a conscious, just like how you can tell the world, it can do it too but mine will be such that Valencia will never live a normal life"

"YOU!"

Xiao's words stumped Adria while Valencia's eyes widened, she didn't think that Xiao would have seen through the loophole but more than that what enraged her was the fact that Xiao was using her as a bargaining tool against her master, something that enraged her to the core,

"Calm down Valencia"

Adria spoke with a calm voice, smoothing Valencia's rage, while a hint of doubt filled her eyes, she knew her disciple the best, she wasn't one to lose her calm in any situation this was something that she as a master had drilled onto her disciple but ever since meeting Xiao Valencia was a becoming more emotional.......more human.

She had shown more mention than ever before, something that Adria was coming to realize,

'What's going on?'

With doubt her eyes trialed between Xiao and Valencia, with a frown she looked at Xiao, Adria was capable of seeing through lies, especially with the gift she had been born with, one that helped her to see the truth that was hidden in a web of lies, she turned to Xiao, activating an innate gift that she was only blessed with, her eyes which couldn't be seen blazed golden,

"Tell me, child, do you have any relation to the Heavenly Immortals?"

"No"

"Do you plan on harming my disciple or anybody close to her?"

"No, as long as she doesn't try to hurt anyone I care about"

"What is your goal?"

"To keep the people I care for safe and to enjoy my life as I cultivate"

This answer made Adria surprised, this wasn't the will she normally sees, without having the true will to reach the top, you will never reach the top,

"Tell are you with the Heavenly Immortals or are you against them?"

"I'm with the side that guarantees the safety of the people I care"

"Good"

Finally satisfied Adria nodded her head, her figure becoming paler, her body returning back to Valencia while her voice was heard in her head,

'Take the boy as an ally, my will is telling me that he will be useful in our future endeavors, also you might learn something from him'

'Learn from him?'

There was clear disdain in Valencia's voice, she was Valencia, and one day she would reach height beyond any, there isn't a single being in her age group that could teach her.
