The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

[Dark Universe – 230,012 Lightyears From the Human Universe]

Thyra, one of the Paragon guards and the only dragon among them, had to take charge of the spaceship while Yuying rested after expending half her life force to help her master, the Paragon.

She had been asleep for a while now as they made their way toward the human universe.

Of course, their destination was a distant galaxy where their master was currently living. They sought to find him before the awakening, for they knew the history between the heavens and their master regarding awakenings was not a pleasant one.

“At this speed, we will be getting to the human universe in the next nine months. I hope that the human bitch has made a life for herself that will make things much easier for us to find our master.

If she pulls off that lazy life again, I will personally punish her on my own terms. Yuying can’t make the sacrifice only for her to mess it up.”

Thyra said, already looking forward to seeing her master and sister, whom she pretended to hate but secretly loved.

BANG!

Suddenly, just when Thyra could offload more insults on her human sister, Yuying burst through the door, prompting her to stand up.

“Yuying, just why can’t you—” She froze mid-sentence when she saw the sweat on Yuying’s forehead.

“What is wrong?” she asked, rushing to hold her before she fell.

“Master is in trouble,” Yuying replied, shaking as she spoke.

“Wait, has the world awakening started?”

“No. This is even worse.”

“What can be worse than a world awakening?” Thyra asked, her brow raised.

“Master is angry.”

“Oh, that is bad, very bad.” Thyra broke into a cold sweat. The last time her master fell into his anger, the whole universe felt the wrath of a paragon.

She was scared the whole time, and just when she thought this life would be a good one, she was bombarded with something she never expected to hear.

“This is bad.” Thyra let Yuying settle down and started pacing, her emotions flaring as both fear and anger overwhelmed her.

“What do we do?” she asked, knowing that in cases like this, Yuying was the best person to answer.

“I will have to seal back the anger before it overwhelms him. I still have time.”

“Absolutely not. Let me do it. Your lifespan has already been halved; you will die doing this,” Thyra rushed back to Yuying, holding her hand with an unwilling expression. She didn’t want Yuying to die.

“You can’t, Thyra. I am the only person among our sisters who can help him, and you know that.”

“Still, you will die, Yuying.” Tears started falling from her eyes. Yuying smiled weakly, wiping the tears off her face.

“I won’t die, Thyra. I still have half my life force and my cultivation base. Combining the two, I can help master and remain alive. Master needs me, so I can’t just die like that.”

“But you will permanently lose your cultivation base and might not be able to recover again. At least take half my life force. You are a nine-tailed fox; you can do that, right?”

“I can, but won’t. If both of us lose our life force, who will get us back to the master? You have to do that, Thyra. You must make sure we get back to master, so I will have to do this alone.

Plus, knowing master, he will surely have a way to heal me, so don’t worry, I will be just fine.”

Thyra didn’t have a counter for that, and while she knew Yuying making this sacrifice would be worth it, losing a sister was also painful.

“Damn the heavens. One of these days, I will offload my fury on them.” Thyra held Yuying’s hands and made her a promise.

“I promise when you wake up next time, master will be smiling back at you.”

Yuying smiled and settled down in a lotus posture. Her nine tails spread behind her and quickly lit up in nine different shades of color.

She formed a seal, and quickly, her body glowed golden.

At the same moment, a star tattoo appeared on her forehead, and her consciousness was pulled away. The next second, she was standing inside Klaus’s soul sea, looking at his back.

“Master…” she called out. Klaus, who was struggling to restrain himself, heard a familiar voice and turned back. When his eyes landed on the fox lady, his eyes widened.

“Yuying…”

Klaus called out, and with a quick step, Yuying closed in and hugged him. “Master… I miss you so much.”

Tears fell from her eyes as she embraced her master, whom she had been dreaming of meeting for the past years.

Klaus also hugged her tightly. Among the Paragon guards, Yuying was the one who truly understood him and had lived longer with him.

In a way, he was closer to her than the rest.

“How are you here, Yuying? Have you already arrived on Earth?” Klaus asked, but Yuying shook her head, still not letting go of the hug.

“We are on our way to the human universe. From there, we will look for where you are,” Yuying said, then pulled back but held Klaus’s hand.

“We don’t know the galaxy you are in, so it will take some time to find you. However, with Unity now a Human, she can help us get to you.”

“Who are you coming with?” Klaus asked, a little curious despite his situation. Talking to Yuying seemed to, in a way, bring down the anger in his heart.

“I am currently with Thyra.”

Klaus raised his brow. “Aren’t you and Thyra worst enemies?”

Klaus laughed, and Yuying smirked.

“She is hateful, but she is my sister, so I can’t hate her. However, she is a changed person now, so I guess that was why I went for her instead of the others.”

“We both know she never changes. But since you are the emotional one, I suppose I will believe you. However, when you get to the human universe, just look for the Milky Way galaxy.

I am in the outer part of the galaxy, surrounded by some uninhabitable planets, and have only one sun and a moon.”

“That will narrow things down. But first, can I kiss you… Master?” Yuying asked, blushing profusely. Before she could even second-guess her question, Klaus pulled her in and locked lips with her.

The kiss was deep, intense, and heartfelt—one that dispelled the cloud forming outside and subdued the hatred rising in his heart.

When they broke the kiss, Yuying’s cheeks were red like a tomato. Klaus, on the other hand, noticed the sudden change in his heart, prompting him to look at Yuying.

However, when he saw the smile on her face, his heart broke.

“What did you do, Yuying?”

“Nothing bad, master. It’s good to see you again. Soon, I will be holding the real you. Until then, be happy and say hi to my sworn sisters… tell them I will see them soon.”

With a smile on her face, she vanished and woke up in the spaceship.

“Look for the Milky Way galaxy and the planet with one sun and one moon. Master is there.” With that, she passed out. Her Domain stage cultivation permanently regressed to the Grandmaster stage.
