When Emperor Cang Wanhe threw the pill in his mouth, he lied down on his bed and waited to for the effects of the Burning Soul Flower pill to kick in. With Cang Yue by his side, holding his hand, he waited and waited. After a few minutes, he started to feel that he was getting warmer and thus he knew the effects had started. Remembering what Mesa told him, he relaxed his body and let it the effects run its course through his body. Within 15 minutes, his body felt like it was on fire. It felt like his blood was replaced with boiling hot water. But even so, he refused to yield and didn't utter a single scream or grunt. And with Cang Yue by his side, he had the greatest incentive in the world to see this through to the end. And with his body red hot and sweating crazily, he held on and on.

Looking at the scar on his chest, he could see the parasite squirming underneath it, trying to free itself: "Die! You wretch!" He grunted and didn't look away from the scar until he saw the squirming come to an end. An hour later, just as sudden as the pain had come, it faded and he felt like he trained himself to exhaustion, much like he did in his younger years. And so, with his Cang Yue still by his side, holding his hand, he fell in a deep sleep and pretty soon he was snoring like a bear.

At the side, Cang Yue never left her father after he swallowed the pill. And now seeing him in such a deep sleep, she left the room with a contend smile on her face.

Coming to the kitchen, she sees Mesa there hard at work, cooking for them, what seems to be a great feast. He and the kitchen staff were very busily working, preparing the feast, not even noticing here presence there. And so with a gentle smile, she left the kitchen and went back to her father's chamber and waited there for Mesa to finish.

A few hours later

Cang Yue was busy practicing the Strength of a Hundred Seal. She was busily storing more and more Profound Energy onto a specific point on her forehead to create the Hundred Seal marking. In the meantime, the Emperor himself was groggily starting to awaken from his sleep.

".......Ahhhh!! That was a nice nap!" Said Emperor Cang Wanhe while stretching out and looking around confusedly until his eyes landed on Cang Yue, who herself immediately on top of him.

"Father! How you feel?! Are you alright?! Are you feeling any kind of pain anywhere?!"

But before he could answer her question, they both heard a rumbling noise.

GRRRR!!!!

Placing his hand on his belly, he answered with very untypical nonchalance: "Dearest daughter, we feel hungry. Very, very hungry. Is Mesa ready with that feast? Because we could eat an entire whale at this point."

*knock*knock*knock*knock*

"Ahh! There he is! Let him in!" Called out Emperor Cang Wanhe in complete elation.

And so, just like he expected, Mesa and the kitchen staff came in pushing food carts stuffed to the brim with many different dishes on it. Emperor Cang Wanhe, instead of acting all regally like he normally would, was acting completely nonchalant. After the kitchen staff had placed food carts in his chambers and left all the utensils he would need, they left the room, leaving only Cang Wanhe, Cang Yue and Mesa there. And frankly not caring how he would look in front of them, he started digging into the food and kept eating one dish after another. Cang Yue and Mesa, who were also eating together with the Emperor, at some point were staring at him as he devoured one dish after another. And most baffling off all, he didn't seem to have an end to his appetite. Cang Yue was staring in shock at how her father was practically inhaling all that food.

'Holy shit man. This guy can eat. Now I know how Master Roshi, Krillin and the others feel like when they see the saiyans eat like their stomachs are made of black holes.' Thought Mesa who was very impressed with the Emperor's appetite.

Much later, after Emperor Cang Wanhe had singlehandedly eaten 90% of the entire feast that Mesa prepared, did he finally stop and laid back on his bed with a swollen belly and a look of pure contentment on his face: "..Aaahhhhh!! That was delicious! Mesa Uchiha! Thank you so much for this delicious meal."

"You're very welcome, your majesty. I am happy that your majesty has enjoyed this meal." Said Mesa. But contrary to expectations, instead of a reply, he only got silence.

"Uhm.. Your majesty. Are you ok?"

"..."

And still, he got no answer. Worried that something might be wrong, Mesa and Cang Yue immediately checked him out. Only to be pleasantly surprised once again. Because it turned out that Emperor Cang Wanhe had already fallen asleep. This brought a smile on both on their faces.

".... Oh man. That father of yours sure is something. First, he's pigging out like he hadn't eaten in years. Only to feel asleep right after."

"Hahahaha.. Honestly, I am very surprised at his behavior today. Even before he was infected with that parasite, he'd never act like that. It's a very nice surprise to be honest. It looks like he will be recovering just fine."

And so, after cleaning up everything and leaving the Emperor's chambers, Mesa and Cang Yue were free to do what they wanted. And so, they went towards the Moon Embracing Palace for Mesa to help out Cang Yue with the Strength of a Hundred Seals. In order to make it easier for Cang Yue to practice with the Strength of a Hundred Seal, he opened up all 54 of her profound entrances.

For the next few days, Mesa and Cang Yue had fallen into a routine. Mesa would make the meals for himself and the Emperor, who would greedily eat every crumb, and Cang Yue. Then he would help out the Emperor with physical therapy lessons and get him to build up more muscle mass that he had lost thanks to the years that he was bedridden. After having dinner, Mesa and Cang Yue would do cultivation sessions with each other, with Mesa assisting Cang Yue in getting stronger and getting more of a feel for precise Profound Energy control.

After a week, during their cultivation session, Mesa brought up the topic of him having to go for now: "Cang Yue, tomorrow after breakfast I will be going. I have to go to the Frozen Cloud Asgard. I promised them I would come by after I got out of that seal."

"I understand. I imagine that Chu Yuechan is worried that you haven't come by since you escaped that seal." Said Cang Yue.

And so the next day, after having breakfast together, Mesa left for the Frozen Cloud Asgard. Donning the White Dragon Emperor's Scale Mail once more, he flew into the direction of the Frozen Cloud Asgard.

'Alright. It's been a week since I ruined Shinji's wedding and humiliated him and the Burning Heaven Clan in front of the entirety of the Blue Wind Empire. By this time, he must have returned and now they must have dispatched a group of their strongest Elders to take me down.' Thought Mesa in amus.e.m.e.nt.

Flying over Blue Wind Imperial City and away from it, he flew in the direction of the Wasteland of Death since the Frozen Cloud Asgard was further to the north of that. While he was flying, he noticed that he was being followed by several people. And sensing their strength level, there were twenty of them. All in the middle to late stages of Sky Profound Realm.

'Geez, what a surprise. They've sent out a hit squad to kill me.' Thought Mesa totally unsurprised at this action of the Burning Heaven Clan.

Landing just outside the town that bordered the Wasteland of Death, Mesa casually walks into the town. With this, he had managed to secure himself some reprieve, before the Burning Heaven Clan's hit squad would attack him. For as long as he was in this little town, the Burning Heaven Clan wouldn't attack him. For the moment they would attack him, everyone would be witnessing this and rumors would be spreading that the Burning Heaven Clan had sent out their strongest members, just to kill a single, weaker person. That is, if they had managed to kill Mesa. Then they would be regarded as bullies and laughed at. But if they attacked Mesa, and he killed them, then their reputation would be damaged even more. So the best possible scenario would be, if they could ambush Mesa when he was in a place that devoid of all people, and thus a place with no witnesses.

Mesa in the meantime, took out his phone and started calling Jasmine. Waiting for her to pick it up, he spoke up as soon as she picked up her phone: "Yoo, Jasmine. It's me. Guess what. Those Burning Heaven Clan idiots sent out a hit squad after me."

"Wow. Color me shocked." Reacted Jasmine totally unimpressed: "But why would you call me? You're strong enough to take care of them on your own. And very easily at that."

"It's because I wanna set out a trap for them. So what I want you to do is tell my other me there to do this." Said Mesa and told Jasmine about the trap he wants them to set up there.

".... That is a nice plan. Consider it done. Give us like.. 15 minutes. 30 tops. Can you stall them for that long?" Said Jasmine.

"Sure. Consider it done." Said Mesa, hung up the phone and walked straight towards a busy inn and started ordering everything on the menu.

Meanwhile.

The twenty Burning Heaven Clan Elders that were watching were getting confused and angry at Mesa weird behavior. When Fen Juecheng came back to the Burning Heaven Clan and told them what happened during the bridal procession, everyone was absolutely livid. Even Burning Heaven Clan Master, Fen Duanhun, was beside himself with rage. And pretty soon, a hit squad was formed to kill him. But from all the information they've gathered from Fen Juecheng and the eight elder that had accompanied him during the bridal procession, they wouldn't be taking any chances. This time, they would kill Mesa Uchiha, using overwhelming numbers and constant harassment tactics to not give him any reprieve during battle and wear him out eventually.

So with the entire hit squad gathered, they covertly entered Blue Wind Imperial City and watched the entrance to the palace like haws, not willing to chance it that Mesa Uchiha would slip through their fingers. When Mesa Uchiha had finally taken off and leaving Blue Wind Imperial City, the twenty elders saw this as their chance to ambush him and finally kill him. But contrary to their expectations, Mesa flew so fast that they could barely keep up with him. It took all their efforts just to not lose him out of their sights.

After flying at such great speed for the whole morning, they had arrived at the frontier town that bordered the Wasteland of Death. Seeing Mesa Uchiha land in the frontier town, the twenty elders were besides themselves with frustration. The entire way, between this frontier town and Blue Wind Imperial City, not once did Mesa Uchiha come to a stop. And once they had arrived at the outskirts of the town, they were all exhausted from this forced trip. After swallowing an energy pill to restore their spent energy reserves, they were right back on top of Mesa Uchiha. And what they saw, was him walking into a busy inn and ordering everything they had on the menu. On the one hand, this offered them time to recuperate their lost strength. But on the other hand, this just meant that they were forced to watch as Mesa Uchiha took his sweet time in ordering a meal and eating at a snail's pace.

But once all of that was done, once Mesa had eaten everything he ordered and sat there until the food had passed through his stomach. That's when Mesa had finally left and took off in the direction of the Wasteland of Death, the perfect place for their ambush and the perfect place to mark Mesa Uchiha's grave. And this time, they noticed that Mesa was flying at a much slower pace. This time, they didn't need to push themselves just to keep up with him.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Flying through the skies above the Wasteland of Death, Mesa kept good track of the twenty elders that were on his tail. Feeling a vibration in his pocket, he takes out his phone and reads a message that Jasmine sent him.

{Hey Mesa! What is taking you so long? Everything is ready on our side here.}

And with an awkward smile on his face, he sent her a reply: {Sorry. Sorry. Lost track of time. But I am on my way right now. I'll see you two soon.}

"Alright. Time to set the trap and catch some fools." Muttered Mesa to himself as he came to dead stop in midair.

Seeing Mesa floating there in midair, the Burning Heaven Clan's newest Great Elder, Fen Jueran, gave all the elders that were with him their orders: "Just like you, I too want to bring this brat with us back to the clan and have him endure all of our torture. Letting him die here just like this is letting him off too lightly. But remember! This brat is crafty and cunning, and his different moves are even more strange and unpredictable. Don't waste your words with him. Kill him immediately!"

Pretty soon, he was surrounded on all sides by the twenty elders. And judging from the looks on their faces, none of them were happy to see him. And so, with his trademark smug smirk and nonchalance, he greets them: "So, how can I help you?"

And they exception to that: "Bastard, hand over your life!"

And just like that the elders started launching their attacks at him. Only for all of their attacks to pass through him harmlessly, much to the shock of the elders.

"Pftt.. Hahahahahaha...!!! Your f.u.c.k.i.n.g faces man. Hahahahah! Oh man! This shit is priceless YO!" laughed Mesa in ridicule to the vain attempts of the elders to kill him. And with every breath that Mesa took, every show of contempt towards them, their anger would only soar higher and higher, resulting in them greatly intensifying their attacks against him. Only for every single one to pass through him harmlessly and Mesa to laugh at them.

(A.N.: A quick question to all my readers. Now that the Blue Wind Tournament arc is over, the story will go towards the Phoenix Empire Tournament arc. And in the original story, Yun Che would be stuck on the Primordial Profound Ark while the Phoenix Empire invaded the Blue Wind Empire under the pretense of Yun Che having the Phoenix bloodline. While in actuality, they invaded to get their hands on the Purple God Stone mine near Floating Cloud City. In my ff, Mesa had emptied out that particular mine. So my question to you all is: Should the Phoenix Empire invade the Blue Wind Empire in my ff. And know that this invasion is a very big plot element in the original story. Love to hear from you all. And please leave your thoughts on whether this invasion should go on or not)
