Leon absorbed this information as they ran. The streets blurred around them, his mind focused solely on the urgency of the situation. The Viscount''s face was set in a grim mask, reflecting the dire nature of Amelia''s condition.


    "Where exactly is she?" the Viscount asked, his voice tight with concern.


    "In her chambers," Leon replied, his breathing in quick, controlled bursts. "She''s trying to control it, but it''s getting worse."


    "what are those array stones you talked about?"


    The Viscount sighed, his eyes narrowing as he picked up the pace. "They are specially designed for situations like this, don''t worry when you see it''s effect you''ll understand."


    Leon felt a surge of hope at the Viscount''s words. If they had already have something designed for this, there might still be a chance to help Amelia. He just had to trust that the Viscount knew what he was doing, even if he was still furious about the secrets kept from them.


    Leon''s brows furrowed at this point, the situation was extremely frustrating and confusing, and it hurt him to see Amelia like that. He was enraged. ''System, are you telling me there''s nothing you can do? How useless can you be?!''


    [Well, there''s a way. Filling her with yang from your rod would calm down her raging yin, but that''s only temporary, but it''ll help. . It would only be a matter of time before the yin would rage again, and next time, it''lle out even stronger.]


    [The best way to resolve this is for her to gain absolute mastery over her physique. I think I now understand why she was sent to the cial Frost Lotus Sect she mentioned earlier...]


    Leon nodded in understanding. Her physique was unusual, but it exined everything. He remembered his father mentioning that he had tried to seduce her before but failed, needing a favor from himter, which was why she was the only one he could trust.


    That favor must have been significant, and it made sense that Amelia agreed to look after him, only to fall for himter on after they shared a bed.


    It was all starting to make sense. Leon sighed heavily. The prospect of their future together was now clouded with uncertainty. He had harbored thoughts of them attending the same academy or sect, but it looked like they might have to separate for a while. The cial Frost Lotus Sect, an all-female sect, must have knowledge about how to help her gain control over her physique.


    Her father had sent her there despite her shadow affinity, believing it was the best ce for her to face a life-and-death situation that would trigger her breakthrough. But that hadn''t happened, and she had returned for a vacation. Her father could never have anticipated her leveling up her physique right here in his estate.


    Now, she would need to be sent back, and Leon had no idea what to do to prevent this separation.


    [To be honest, Leon, you can''t help her as much as you want to. Her physique is extremely powerful, and the only way to manage it is for her to gain mastery over it under the guidance of masters in this domain.]


    Leon sighed, his heart heavy with worry. ''This is bad. This is really bad.''


    The thought of being separated from Amelia filled his heart with dread.


    It didn''t take long for them to reach Amelia''s chambers, the house had been half destroyed...


    The scene at Amelia''s house was one of utter devastation. Half of the house was in ruins, with walls shattered and windows blown out. Sharp icicles protruded from every surface, and the air was thick with swirling frost. The once beautiful garden was now a frozen wastnd, and the trees nearby were encased in thickyers of ice.


    Inside, the blizzard raging out of Amelia had left a trail of destruction, with furniture splintered and frost covering every inch of the room.


    Leon and the Viscount arrived first, the elder man''s face set in grim determination. He scanned the chaotic scene, his eyes narrowing as he assessed the extent of the damage. Momentster, the butler arrived, his usuallyposed demeanor strained by the urgency of the situation.


    He carried a spatial bag from which he quickly retrieved a set of strange ck stones, each engraved with intricate runes that seemed to pulse with a faint, otherworldly light.


    Without wasting a moment, the butler began cing the stones in a precise formation around the house. Each stonended in its designated spot with a soft thud, the runes on them glowing faintly as they connected with the ground.


    Leon watched with a mix of curiosity and apprehension. The Viscount and the butler then began to channel their Qi into the stones, the air around them shimmering as their energy flowed into the formation. The runes on the stones glowed brighter with each passing second, casting an eerie glow over the destroyedndscape.


    Leon had no idea what they were doing, but he trusted that the Viscount wouldn''t do anything to harm his own daughter.


    He wanted to ask what was happening, but the intense focus on the Viscount and the butler''s faces told him that any distraction could be disastrous. He bit his tongue, his fists clenched at his sides, he hated the fact that he wasn''t able to do anything...


    Suddenly, beams of light shot out from all the rune stones, converging in the air above the house. The lights intertwined, forming a translucent orange dome-like array that encased the entire structure. The air inside the dome seemed to settle, the wild frost essence contained within its boundaries.


    Leon''s eyes widened in amazement as the array solidified. He turned to the Viscount, who was now breathing heavily, beads of sweat glistening on his forehead.
