Chapter 5 - Chapter 5-Bitter fate

"Who are you and why are you doing this." When Su Lin sees that unknown figure he unknowingly says those words.

"Su Lin did you already forget this old man I am your savior. My name is Feng Yin and you can also call me Master Yin. Now do you remember." When Su Lin hears those words his mind is filled with bolts of thunder. When he tries to recall Master Yin face and match it with this young man he notices many similarities in their appearance. After realizing this tears unknowingly start flowing from his eyes.

"Why Master Yin why" When Feng Yin hears those words he gives Su Lin a soft smile and says in a calm manner. "Kid do you really want to know Then let me ask you something, did you do that." After saying this Feng Yin throws a piece of paper toward Su Lin. When Su Lin sees that piece of paper, he filled with shock because it is his imperial exam paper.

"Now listen to me. you know when i first saw you what you done i can imagine, I never seen anyone who can do something like that. Su Lin, when first time I saw you I couldn't believe my eyes. Just because of your writing, you were able to create fluctuations in world. That was not a ordinary thing a mortal can do, now tell me if you see a beautiful flower and want to pick it for your own use what do you do."

After Feng Yin finishes saying those words Uncle Hong looks at him with hatred in his eyes, in this life may be this hatred can't be erase. Then he looks at Su Lin with a kind gaze and says to Su Lin in a gentle voice. "Su Lin don't be afraid i am here. I don't know about the future, but one thing I can tell you is that he can't kill me. If he wanted to, he would have done that long ago."

"Haha, really you think I can't kill you just because I have some plans in my mind, Such an insignificant thought." When Feng Yin hears what Uncle Hong says to Su Lin, a furious aura gradually rises from him, and while laughing, he mocks Uncle Hong. After that, he lifts his hand and points a finger toward Uncle Hong, After that a small white flame condenses on his fingernail, and then he flicks his finger. Following that the white flame shoots toward Uncle Hong, but at that moment Uncle Hong says a few words to Feng Yin.

"Do you think I am afraid of you." After hearing those words, Feng Yin fury erupts to whole another level. At this moment, just as the white flame is about to touch Uncle Hong a powerful force is released from uncle hong. When Feng Yin sees this he gives Uncle Hong a mocking smile. As for Su Lin when he sees this scene his heart is filled with complex emotions.

"So now in order to save this boy life you even start burning your life force and cultivation base." Before the white flame touches Uncle Hong, it extinguishes in midair. After that Uncle Hong points his finger at Feng Yin. Following this a black sword suddenly appears in front of Feng Yin and shoots toward his neck.

"Just mere tricks before death." After saying this, just as Feng Yin neck is about to be cut by the sword, he moves his hand at lightning speed and casually strikes the sword. That alone is enough to change the sword trajectory.

"Is that all you have." After hearing this, Uncle Hong reveals a bitter expression, but there is not a trace of panic in his eyes. Suddenly, behind Feng Yin the same black sword moves toward his head. When Feng Yin realizes what Uncle Hong is trying to do he turns around and grabs the sword. After catching it, he looks at Uncle Hong and gives him a sweet smile. Then he moves his hand and throws the black sword toward Uncle Hong head.

"Stop interfering with my plan and scram for me." When the sword crosses only half the distance to Uncle Hong it suddenly explodes, and black smoke fills the surrounding area. Some time later, Feng Yin and Uncle Hong emerge from the black smoke, and both are floating in the air.

Right now, Uncle Hong and Feng Yin are engaged in a battle that shakes the entire jungle. However, in this fight Feng Yin has the upper hand, while Uncle Hong can barely withstand every move. Seeing this scene, Su Lin is filled with fear. This fear is not for himself, but for someone he loves.

"Why are you struggling, Do you think you have any chance against me." Right now every move Feng Yin performs and every word he speaks is filled with pride, a pride that believes it cannot be defeated and can never lose.

After exchanging blows for some time, Uncle Hong can barely hold his own. Seeing this opportunity, Feng Yin moves at lightning speed and appears right in front of Uncle Hong. When Uncle Hong realizes what Feng Yin is trying to do, he tries to move his body, but before he can react, a palm strike hits his chest and sends him flying toward the ground.

Seeing this scene, Su Lin can no longer hold back his tears. Despite having his hands tied he runs forward for Uncle Hong. When he sees Uncle Hong heavily injured state, his heart is filled with unimaginable pain. Because of this pain, his whole body feels numb.

When Su Lin sees Uncle Hong gradually dying state, he kneels down and lifts Uncle Hong's head, gently placing it on his thigh, and says in a trembling voice. "Stop protecting me Uncle. You have already done enough for me. Please just let me go."

"Senior Feng yin you want me, so just let Uncle go, and I will come with you. Please I beg you Please." Su Lin knows that he and his uncle are in a desperate situation, where only one man can either save them or kill them both. Despite knowing all of this, he gathers his courage and asks for his uncle life in exchange for his own.

After hearing those words, Feng Yin smiles at Su Lin and speaks in a gentle voice "Let me consider it".

After a few seconds pass, Feng Yin looks into Su Lin eyes and nods. Seeing Feng Yin agree to his one and only condition, Su Lin feels joy in his heart for Uncle Hong.

"Take this and give it to your uncle. These medicines can help him recover. If you had agreed to me from the start, none of this would have happened." Out of nowhere, Feng Yin throws a small bottle toward Su Lin. After catching it and hearing Feng Yin words, Su Lin opens the bottle cap and tries to feed the medicine to Uncle Hong, but suddenly, a hand stained with blood stops his actions. That hand belongs to none other than Uncle Hong.

"What are you doing Uncle Hong, Why aren't you taking the medicine" After seeing this, Su Lin cannot understand the reason behind Uncle Hong actions. But just as he is about to say another word, Uncle Hong looks at Feng Yin. When Feng Yin sees this gaze, he suddenly feels uneasy, but he cannot tell where that feeling comes from. Before he can think any further, Uncle Hong voice reaches his ears.

"Seven stars in the South, one star in the North yet the earth lies at the center." After hearing those words, Feng Yin expression turns dark. On the other hand, Su Lin cannot understand anything why Uncle Hong refuses the medicine, or why he suddenly says those words. But in the next moment, he gets his answer.

A golden and bloody glow come from his body but befor he can do anything about it or think about it, he saw Uncle Hong at this movement he gradually start feeling a heart wrenching pain, because Uncle untied his hands and stand his wounded body between him and Feng yin, Seeing this secrifice of his uncle hong for him su lin can't holdback his tears. Those drop of tears when touch his blood they look like su lin tears that spilled over his face ran dark and crimson red.

"Good, very good. I never thought you knew about formation spells. Then let us consider this a draw. But in this draw, your life will be forfeited, Su Hong." Hearing Feng Yin praise and killing intent, Uncle Hong gives a cold laugh and says in a mocking tone.

"Don't worry. I will go to the underworld first, but in the future, you will eventually follow me there." When Su Lin hears those words, he tries to grab Uncle Hong feet and ask why he isn't saving himself, why he needs to do something like this. But before he can touch Uncle Hong or say anything to him, he senses a golden bubble surrounding his entire body.

When he ask Uncle Hong about it, he realizes that all his communication with the outside world has been cut off. He can see everything happening before his eyes, but he cannot hear a single thing. In front of Su Lin eyes, Uncle Hong turns his wounded body and smiles at him. Then, Uncle Hong raises his ring finger, and a silver colored ring flies toward Su Lin.

When Su Lin catches it and looks at Uncle Hong, he cannot describe how much gratitude and love he feels toward this old man. But before he can express it or do anything, a blur of steel flashes across Uncle Hong neck. In the next instant, Uncle Hong's head separates from his body, and both his severed head and beheaded body fall to the ground.

Seeing this sight, blood tears begin to flow from Su Lin eyes, and his entire body is filled with endless rage. If anyone sees him in the middle of a night, they could easily mistake him for a ferocious beast. Yet despite the endless sorrow consuming him, laughter escapes his lips. In this madness state, he speaks in a demonic voice. "Hahahaha. Kill me, Kill me, Feng Yin this is your chance, because if I survive today, then just as you kill my family, I will kill your entire family and take a bath in their fresh blood right in front of you."

In his maddened state, he continues shouting those words, hoping they reach Feng Yin ears. Suddenly, a voice echoes in his mind."I will be waiting, Su Lin. Come at me with all you have when you find me."

Suddenly, the bubble-shaped barrier begins to rise into the air and shoots toward the sky at lightning speed with Su Lin trapped inside. Seeing this sight, the corners of Feng Yin lips curl into a faint smile.​
