Heavenly Star (Web Novel)

Ye Wuchen laughed out loud, clapped his hands and said: “You are Feng Lie indeed, talking about cool-headed and steady, as a younger generation I am not as good as you. Regarding the relationship between me and the Southern Empire clan, do you think I will tell you? Since you’ve already believed quite easily, then it will be more simple. You are right, I dared to break into your imperial palace, injured your son, and also putting a knife in your neck, naturally I have my own back up. Whether if you really believed it or not, you can try to attack my Tian Long Nation. But what I need to remind you is, if after the warning you still take your actions, perhaps the Southern Empire clan will destroy your Feng family due to one thing that looked very much important to their eyes, if the Southern Empire clan wanted to really kill somebody, I suppose even Feng Chao Yang will not be able to stop them? Emperor of the Gale Nation, you want to try it?”

Feng Lie was silent, after quite a long while, he shifted his gaze towards Ye Wuchen’s face again, then in a deep voice he said: “You deserve to be called the son of the Ye family, Ye family…… sure enough with each generation greater than its prior generation, no one is a coward. I’ll always feel glad, that the one controlling the power of Tian Long Nation is Long family, and not your Ye family.”

Ye Wuchen hooked up the corner of his mouth, then slowly replied: “You are very considerate, emperor of the Gale, but I believed that, perhaps your gratefulness will not maintain for too long anymore.”

Feng Lie’s eyes suddenly contracted, unable to conceal the surprised look in his face, even Ye ShuiYao who remained so silent like a maiden felt her body shivered, but she didn’t say anything more.

“Hahahaha!” Feng Lie suddenly produced a belly laugh, “What a great Ye Wuchen, looks like I must have underestimated you. Although this was really the first time I met you, yet now you make me feel more scarier than your grandfather. Now…… I’m starting to like you. But……” Feng Lie narrowed his eyes, his produced his ruler’s might and anger, lowering down his voice and said: “You’ve destroyed my son’s huge wedding, injured my son, and took me as hostage, your actions today, you’ve brought extraordinary shame and humiliation to my Feng family which we had never experienced before. Today I admit my defeat, but during other days if you have fallen into my grasp, I will certainly…… cut you up into a thousand pieces! Even if you are related to the Southern Empire clan, I will never be afraid of them, although the Southern Empire clan was powerful, but my Feng family was never afraid of any person, I only wish to dominate the entire world, the Southern Empire clan and the Northern Empire clan……”

“Are they also included in your scope of domination?” Ye Wuchen was still leaning on the carriage window, as he said in a calm face, the corner of his mouth exposing an evident mocking expression. For the most enormous powers like the Southern Empire clan and Northern Empire clan who were full of experts, the one who would be able to stand and fight against them will be someone with similarly powerful strength, was the quantity really that useful? They were already fortunate enough if they didn’t take the initiative to provoke them, if anyone dared to really provoke them, the outcome will simply not happen the second time around. The Heavenly Star Continent had existed for numerous years, the dynasty had changed one after another, several huge influential families have flourished and weakened over the years, only the Southern and Northern Empired clans never faded away, they were still being looked up by all the people in the Heavenly Star Continent, yet they never seen these colossal beings. For so many years they have already accumulated so much power, buried so much undisclosed strength, certainly unimaginable by any ordinary persons. Their foundation, will never be affected by just a tiny Feng family which had only several hundred years of history.

Moreover, currently the Southern Empire clan had already started to gradually penetrate inside the Long family, considering their power, whether they have already extended their claws towards the Gale Nation, it was still unknown. Fortunately, the Southern Empire and the Northern Empire clan physically needed to comply with their ancestral rules of not meddling or interfering with the affairs of the secular world, they could only quietly advanced ahead, or else, if they insisted to dominate the world, perhaps the Heavenly Star Continent will already be in an unstable situation.

Feng Lie wasn’t someone who was ignorant of the worldly affairs, although even in his dreams he wanted to stand up in highest point of the Heavenly Star Continent, and become the very first emperor of the united world, firmly stamping down on the highly positioned Southern and Northern Empire under his foot, even controlling them in his hands, but there were several other rulers with the same ambition as him, some had overreacted, their outcome had became incomparably miserable. He turned his face away, closing his sharp eyes, then plainly said: “Although in the meantime I am not able to touch them, but I believed that even if I kill you now, the Southern Empire clan will never fight against me because of you, because my Feng family wasn’t that easy to be angered. After all, your family name is Ye, and not Shui!”

“Humph, my brother will not be afraid of you!” Before Ye Wuchen could respond, Ning Xue replied angrily.

Feng Lie’s voice was cut off, after he produced his stern voice, his body had turned terribly cold just like being frozen by ice, not to mention moving, he even couldn’t carry out the strength to speak. Only the speed of his heartbeat was multiple times more violent than its normal rate. He felt as if there was a poisonous viper staring at him from behind, causing him to shudder terribly with fear.

That viper, was actually Tong Xin who had released the frightening aura of death, exactly the time when Feng Lie mentioned about “cutting Ye Wuchen into a thousand pieces”.

Ye Wuchen sneered at him, didn’t glance back at him again, his nose slightly moved.

“Brother, sister, are we going home now? Yi? Brother, did you smell a strange fragrance, it doesn’t seem to be the fragrance coming from sister’s body.” Ning Xue sticks out her small nose, and doubtfully asked.

Ye Wuchen smiled and said: “Xue-er was able to distinguish it, this fragrance is indeed not a smell of the body fragrance, it also isn’t the smell of the women’s cosmetics. Maybe……” his produced a disdainful cold smile, “it is a kind of special fragrance that was used to follow a trail.”

Outside the carriage, that imperial guard who was captured by Ye Wuchen to drive the vehicle heard their conversation, he trembled with fear, his whole body was trembling uncontrollably. He knew that even if he was able to return safety this time, there will still be a hundred percent chance that he will be killed by Feng Lie.

Travelling in a corner of an empty street in the city, Ye Wuchen nodded his head towards Tong Xin, Tong Xin flipped her eyes, a dark light shrouded over Feng Lie’s body, causing his consciousness to black out in an instant. Ye Wuchen carrying Ye ShuiYao in one hand, Tong Xin grabbing Ning Xue in one hand, the other hand lifting up Ye Wuchen, they quietly flew out.

Only Feng Lie remained inside of the carriage lying motionless seemed unconscious, that imperial guard who was shaking with fear as he drive around aimlessly seemed completely unaware that the four of them had already disappeared.

When Feng Ru finally reached the carriage with the help of the yellow fur fox, it was stopping by the roadside of an abandoned house. Inside the carriage, Feng Lie’s eyes were still widely opened, just like a piece of wood sitting inside the carriage, despite the shaking he was still unable to regain his consciousness. And the other persons, including the imperial guard driving the carriage were nowhere to be found.

Feng Ru’s anger slowly ignited up, she roared: “Quickly send my father back to the palace, those thieves from the Ye family seemed to have done something evil towards my father, I will certainly capture them back, those remaining people, follow me!”

“But princess……”

“Shut up, quickly follow behind me!”

“Yes……”

It was almost at nightfall, this was a meadowland near the western gate of the Tian Feng City, cool wind blew past, running water babbled beside their ears, Ning Xue and Tong Xin was alongside each other, sitting in the grassland bored, playing with the dried grass in their hands.

A burst of cold wind blew past, Ning Xue catched cold as she pulled back her body, leaning against Tong Xin. Tong Xin opened her mouth, yet didn’t produce any sound. Her one hand was pressing on Ning Xue’s shoulder, a faint bright light illuminated on Ning Xue’s body surface, causing the coldness in her body to fade away in an instant.

“Thank you, Sister Tong Xin.” Ning Xue rolled her brows, contentedly smiled, then turned her body around again, looked at the very far away distance behind her: “Brother and sister must have so many things to say to each other.”

Tong Xin followed with a nod on her head.

Although this place was still closer to the Tian Feng City, but Ye Wuchen believed that they simply wouldn’t chase after them. Even if they followed, with Tong Xin’s presence it wasn’t considered a threat. The first thing that he needed to do, was before they returned home, and during the time where Ye ShuiYao’s heart was still in shock, he must gradually soothe Ye ShuiYao’s remaining worries. Or else once they returned home, facing all the interrogation, even the criticisms, her recently steady up heart might gradually decline again, wavering in the midst of suffering.

Ye Wuchen was pulling her hands, Ye ShuiYao slightly hang down her head, without struggling, the two of them was walking along the creek side, walking for a long time, just like a pair of couple passionately in love, this moment, made Ye ShuiYao forget that he was her own brother, wanting to forever stay in this quiet moment as if the whole world belonged to the two of them, without any other person to disturb them.

“Sister, Do you really have nothing to tell me?” Ye Wuchen was looking ahead, as he smiled and said.

Ye ShuiYao inclined her extremely beautiful cold and elegant face to the side, using a very low close to pleading voice she said: “Today…… don’t call me Sister.”

Ye Wuchen stopped his steps, unconsciously, they have reached a far distance. They were already several meters away from Ning Xue and Tong Xin, but in this faraway distance, they were still walking too fast. For the first time, this moment completely belonged to them, no other outsiders, no other pressure or hindrance.

Coming into contact with Ye Wuchen’s eyes, Ye ShuiYao stretched out her hand, touching his face, her eyes were already full of tears: “Xiao Chen…… why you being so foolish, why would you chase after me…… if you met any accidents, what will I, our parents, and grandpa going to do with that……”

“Because sister was so foolish, so for the sake of sister, I will make my foolish moves just for once.” Ye Wuchen gently smiled, he finally saw the unconcealable gentle feelings in her eyes.

Perhaps, it wasn’t too bad for her to be almost married to Feng Ling, if it wasn’t for today, maybe Ye ShuiYao will never be able to cross over the huge ditch against the ethical morality.

“Why do you want to run away? Sister…… this is not for my own good, but you are tearing my heart apart, you know that?” Ye Wuchen lifted his head, then a long sigh. Yesterday, the moment he received the news about Ye ShuiYao marrying off to the Gale Nation, the pain he felt was indeed almost like tearing his heart apart, so painful that almost made him unable to breathe. “Sister…… during this period, do you really unable to see my feelings?”

Getting along with Ye ShuiYao, he gradually opened her heart, making her to accept him, then with the obscured hints, the eventually leading to one after another explicit indications, he believed that everytime he was able to make her feel something, at the same time touching her heart, one by one, gradually affecting her, then accumulated, until…...
