A Perfect Match
Princess Lu Lian had already summoned the royal healer, but even he was powerless to help.Fang Yun wept in despair as he watched the agony that Mei Hwa endured. No matter what happened, he felt that Mei Hwa had become a part of his life — after all, she had accompanied him through months of perilous journeys.“Mother…!” Fang Yun cried silently in his heart. He also called upon Emperor Kong Xiang, hoping that the two beings might help him save Mei Hwa’s life.The moment he called them, the wind roared violently, swirling in a great vortex. Moments later, a golden chariot appeared out of thin air, descending not far from where they stood.Except for Fang Yun, no one knew who owned that radiant chariot.Princess Lu Lian and everyone present stared in astonishment as the dazzling chariot landed gracefully upon the ground.A beautiful and elegant woman stepped down from it and walked toward Fang Yun.“What is it, my son? Why did you call for your mother?”Fang Yun turned and saw Qian Hui,
Eliminating Wang Qiang
Thousands of years ago, long before she took residence on Mount Huazhuo, Qian Hui had once been exiled to Mount Kunlun as punishment for a grave mistake.However, Qian Hui never spoke of her wrongdoing; to her, it was a shameful secret that must remain forever buried.After completing her exile, she was forbidden to return home and was instead sent to Mount Huazhuo to rule as its guardian spirit.Fang Yun smiled faintly as he listened to his mother’s tale. His smile, however, was not of amusement—it was because she omitted the truth that she now resided in another realm entirely.As Qian Hui continued speaking, Qiang Mo interrupted Fang Yun, warning him of the presence of dark energy lingering within the palace.“Wait, Mother… You can continue your story later. I need to speak with you privately.”“Is it so urgent that you must interrupt me, my son?” she asked softly.Fang Yun nodded. “Please, Mother. Follow me.”The young man led her into a small chamber not far from the main hall.“
Farewell
The next morning, thousands of soldiers worked hand in hand to repair the palace structures that had been damaged during the fierce battle between Fang Yun and Emperor Fu Chen.Inside one of the chambers, Fang Yun, Wu Ming, Mei Hwa, and Empress Lu Lian were discussing the future leadership of the Xi Dynasty.“Your Highness must already know a little about who Wu Ming truly is,” Fang Yun said. “But it would be best if he explained his identity and his role in this dynasty himself.”The Empress nodded in agreement.Wu Ming then recounted in great detail the story of his past within the Xi Dynasty.Empress Lu Lian listened carefully to every word he spoke, understanding the truth of everything that had happened.“So,” Fang Yun concluded, “I hope that Your Highness will continue to rule this dynasty wisely. Wu Ming will assist you in leading and stabilizing the government.”“You really intend to leave the palace?” the Empress asked quietly.“Yes, Your Highness,” Fang Yun replied. “But not
The Great Fire
Princess Lu Lian and Wu Ming personally escorted the two of them to the city gates of the Xi Dynasty capital.“Why don’t you just marry Princess Lu Lian?” whispered Fang Yun to Wu Ming as they walked toward the gates.“Are you out of your mind, Fang Yun? Have you forgotten that I’m an old man? Princess Lu Lian is young enough to be my daughter—perhaps even my granddaughter.”“Your age may be old, Wu Ming, but your face still looks young and handsome. Don’t tell me something else of yours didn’t stay young?”“Would you like to find out?” Wu Ming replied with mock seriousness, and the two of them burst into laughter.Princess Lu Lian and Mei Hwa turned to look at the laughing men with puzzled expressions.“What are you two laughing about?” asked the princess.“Just a matter between men, Your Majesty!” Wu Ming replied cheerfully.When they finally reached the city gates, Fang Yun and Mei Hwa mounted their horses. During her stay in the palace, Mei Hwa had learned to ride skillfully and h
The Power of the Water Core Machete
Without waiting for the ship to reach the shore, Fang Yun leaped from the deck and sprinted across the surface of the water. In a flash, he was already beside a small boy who was crying uncontrollably.“Hey, little one… why are you crying here?” Fang Yun asked gently.“My mother… she’s inside!” the boy sobbed, pointing toward a building engulfed in flames.“Helppp…!” a faint woman’s voice cried out from within the burning structure.Fang Yun turned his gaze toward the inferno. His eyes narrowed for a moment before he drew his Water Core Machete and raised it high above his head.Suddenly, dark clouds rolled and gathered across the sky. The once-clear heavens turned pitch black, thunder crackling violently.Fang Yun kept his machete raised until the shimmering form of water appeared to hang within the thick clouds.He knew he had to extinguish the raging blaze that was devouring dozens of buildings across the port. Drawing upon the power sealed within the Water Core Machete, he summone
Punishment for the Vile Duke I
“Divide these gold coins equally among everyone and rebuild your homes. After this, I will make sure the soldiers of the Ghuozing Duchy — and Duke Ceng Ho himself — never come back here!” Fang Yun said as he handed the pouch to Bai San.Bai San grabbed the pouch and opened it. His eyes widened at the sight of so many gold coins in his hands.He then dropped to his knees and offered a torrent of thanks to Fang Yun.“Rise, Uncle. This is only a small help I can give. By chance I was entrusted with wealth to distribute.” Fang Yun placed a hand on Bai San’s shoulder and helped him to his feet.The man looked at Fang Yun with awe. To him, Fang Yun was more than human — a guardian angel. After saving Bai San’s wife, Fang Yun gave away a pouch of gold without asking and promised to teach Duke Ceng Ho a lesson.Once Bai San distributed the coins fairly, dozens of people immediately knelt and expressed their gratitude toward Fang Yun.“Please, stand up, all of you. I am only a man like you. It
Punishment for the Vile Duke II
Moments later, Mei Hwa entered the grand hall. With the Demon Sword hanging on her back, she looked like a formidable warrior maiden.The sword had been given to her by Fang Yun to replace the one she had lost. Considering her current level of skill, Fang Yun believed she needed a legendary weapon worthy of her abilities.Two days passed. Fang Yun, who was still keeping all the officials of Ghuozing Duchy confined inside the main hall, was suddenly alerted by the arrival of a large royal entourage.A man in his forties, wearing the ceremonial robe of an emperor, entered the hall accompanied by several guards. Among them was the same official whom Fang Yun had ordered to summon the emperor to the duchy.“Your Majesty, that is the young man I told you about,” said the trembling official.The emperor raised an eyebrow, astonished to see how young Fang Yun was.“That young… yet he managed to subdue an entire duchy on his own?” he thought in disbelief.From experience, the emperor could te
Three Masked Women in Gold
Meanwhile, Fang Yun and Mei Hwa, who had already left the Lufeng district, continued their journey toward the crater of Dieng Mountain.The long and exhausting journey did not make the two warriors complain in the slightest. Along the way, they even took time to help the villagers they encountered before reaching the last destination on their quest for the Flame Sword.Ten days passed swiftly. They finally arrived at the foot of Mount Dieng—a place that appeared serene yet radiated a mysterious, mystical aura.As dusk began to fall, Fang Yun decided they should rest before climbing the mountain the following morning.“Mei… after this, I don’t know where my next mission to find the Flame Sword will take me. What I want to ask is—do you still wish to continue this journey with me?”“Why are you asking that, Fang Yun? Didn’t you promise to take me to China once your duty is complete?”“Alright then, if you still wish to wander with me, I hope you won’t regret or complain about this long
Golden Shadow Formation
The young man channeled his inner energy to ease the pain coursing through his body.“He’s still standing?” The three women gasped in disbelief when they saw Fang Yun still on his feet, seemingly unharmed. If not for the golden masks covering their faces, their shock would have been clearly visible.“We must be careful. This young man is no ordinary warrior. It’s rare for anyone to survive our combined strike,” said one of them grimly.Not wanting his final journey before seeking the Sword of Fire to end in failure, Fang Yun drew a massive surge of Qiang Mo energy and circulated it throughout his body.“You’ve forced me to destroy this mountain!” he shouted.In an instant, his body was engulfed in blazing black flames. The icy wind atop Mount Dieng was swept away by scorching heat, drying the trees and forcing their leaves to fall like dying embers.Fang Yun strode forward toward his three masked opponents, his entire form wreathed in seething black fire. Every step he took scorched t
The Secret of the Pendant Necklace
If Fang Yun wasn’t mistaken, the three maidens had called the woman Her Majesty the Queen, which meant she was clearly not living alone.“If you refuse to tell me, then return to the foot of the mountain this instant! Do not take a single step higher, unless you wish to see my wrath!”Fang Yun hissed under his breath. “I’ve come too far to turn back now. I won’t leave this mountain until I’ve completed my mission—even if it costs me my life!”“How amusing. Then let’s see how strong you truly are,” the woman said with a faint, mocking smile. “Show me all your power, young man.”Frustration burned in Fang Yun’s chest. His journey to the summit of Mount Dieng had already been arduous, and now it was being delayed further. He released his deadliest killing aura, hoping to pressure the woman into submission. But what he saw next sent a dull ache through his temples—she stood there, utterly unfazed. A faint smile even graced her lips.“Don’t flaunt childish tricks before me,” she said calml
