164 Extra The dawn of fate Part II

“…You’re given this duty as caretaker for Taizi’s garden. But do you know what he looks like?”

“Beautiful, obviously!” Bai Yu swiftly replied, still self-assured.

“Beautiful?” Feilong frowned. “Isn’t this a word used to praise women?”

Bai Yu tilted her head and pondered. “But that’s what I’ve heard.”

“What have you heard?”

“All within the four seas and eight directions said that the younger brother, Taizi Feilong, was as enchanting as a goddess, yet also as majestic as a man can be…”

Feilong nodded. Was he that beautiful? Should he, who was born a man, be happy with that compliment?

“There’s more!” Bai Yu raised her index finger. “…The older brother, God of War Hongxian was magnificent and dignified, while at the same time more gentle than anyone!”

Feilong nodded, agreeing with this rumor. “And…”

.....

“There’s more!” The little goddess Bai Yu did not give him a chance to speak. She continued on and on about the rumors about him and his brother, all without realizing that one of the subjects was right in front of her.

From then on, Feilong could never enter his Meihua garden again. It was not that he could not. He could always teleport inside whenever he wished. The reason that he did not do so was the caretaker, Bai Yu, who always stopped him, then held him back for a long conversation.

Even after moving to another palace, Taizi Feilong still frequently visited the Meihua garden. He gave no order to build a new garden at the east palace, although he greatly favored the Meihua garden.

No one knew that what Feilong favored was not the garden, but the foolish caretaker, Bai Yu.

After many conversations, they had changed from strangers to friends. And from friends, they became lovers within a few years. Taizi Feilong was cold and beautiful. He never spared a glance for any goddess or saintess, yet now he had fallen in love with the caretaker of Meihua Garden. Though their relationship was kept secret, it was impossible that it would not be known by someone else.

Hongxian realized that his uncaring brother was now in love. He should be happy for his brother, but the Taizi already had Taizi Fei beside him, and so he could not support this love his brother had.

Hongxian could not bear seeing Jiuxian hurt because of the love between Feilong and Bai Yu.

Jiuxian was the woman Hongxian had always loved. She was his sister, his friend, and his everything ever since he could remember. Other than his brother, she was the only one he would gladly sacrifice everything for. He could do anything for her, even though she loved Feilong…

How could the eldest prince like him not know the prophecy that had followed her since her birth? Because of the closeness between Jiuxian and Feilong, he decided to let his brother be Taizi, even though he himself was equally qualified. It was all for Jiuxian and Feilong to have a happy ending. The scene of the two embracing hurt beyond words, but still confirmed to him that he had made the right decision.

And now, his brother was committing an unforgivable sin…

“Do you love her?” Hongxian gazed into his younger brother’s eyes and waited for the answer.

“Yes, brother.”

“Since when?” He tried to suppress his anger under the calmness of his tone. No! This was his younger brother. Even though Feilong had strayed from the right path, he, as his brother, had to help him fix his mistake. No matter how much this would hurt his beloved Jiuxian, he must stay calm for his dear brother.

“That’s…” Feilong could not understand the look of restraint on his brother. What was he angry about? “…I do not know.”

Feilong answered honestly. He did not know how he fell in love with that foolish woman. And she also could not answer when she had started loving him. They both only knew that the feeling had been gradually forming and increasing over the time they had spent together.

“Can you not marry her?” Hongxian decided to ask the most selfish question.

“Why would you ask so?” Feilong had never felt that his brother was this unreadable before. He would not be angry if his brother had an appropriate reason.

“Jiuxian has yet to be formally married to you as Taizi Fei, and now you’re having a secret affair with another woman. Will this not be too cruel for her?” Hongxian chose to be direct. “I can see how much you two loved each other. How can you lend another woman your affection?”

Feilong frowned at his brother. “Brother, you ‘see’ that we love each other?”

“I sacrificed the title of Taizi for you because you’re in love. Jiuxian is destined to be the empress of heaven. She won’t be able to marry you if you’re not Taizi.”

“Brother…”

Was this…all a misunderstanding?

“You’re wrong, brother. Actually, Jiuxian and I, we—”

“Taizi! Prince!” A hurried call from a royal maid came and interrupted them. “…First prince’s magical beast has escaped from its restraint! It is not rampaging in Taizi Feilong’s Meihua garden. No one can calm it down.”

“That…”

“Bai Yu!” Feilong immediately teleported away, concerned for the safety of the woman he loved, who was willing to continue to work as a caretaker. Seeing his brother disappear, Hongxian instantly knew where his destination was. It was the place everyone in heaven was heading to… Meihua Garden!

Screeeech!

The sound came from a giant bird, a magical beast that Hongxian had recently caught and had yet to tame. Its cry shook the air above the Meihua garden. However, as soon as the heaven general appeared, the bird’s flame and the chaos it had caused were easily suppressed.

“Call the royal doctor!” Feilong’s order drew Hongxian’s interest from the bound bird in front of him. His younger brother was carrying a woman in his arms as he flew toward his old palace.

Hongxian quickly handled the bird before following behind Feilong. Surprise filled his mind before a wave of sorrow surged through and took over every emotion in his body. It was so overwhelming that he had to stop and kneel down on the ground.

Tears that he had never felt before were now flowing freely from the sadness that was not his own… This was Feilong’s emotion.

Is there something to devastate you this greatly, brother?

“Hongxian.” Jiuxian’s voice made him turn his face upward. As soon as his tear-streaked face was visible, Jiuxian could not remain calm. “What happened to you?”

“It isn’t me…” Hongxian tried to suppress the emotions that were linked between him and his brother. This time, it was surprisingly violent. He stood up, following the little strength from the woman in front of him, who was meant to support him. “…It’s Feilong. He’s upset.”

“What happened?”

“Let’s go.” Hongxian did not want to guess as to the reason behind his brother’s tears. He led the goddess of fate to the palace that used to be occupied by his younger brother. Inside, there was a lying figure of a woman with an almost audible breath. Feilong was sitting next to her, amidst the servants who were kneeling close to the ground, too afraid to utter a word.

“Is that her?” The woman had sustained an injury so great that her face was pale white. Still, her appearance was beautiful and elegant, as if she was only a sleeping goddess.

“Yes, brother.” Feilong raised his face to meet his brother’s eyes. “It is her.”

Tears fell from his brother’s golden eyes. This woman, who was hurt by his magical beast, was the cause of Feilong’s sorrow. An invisible hand squeezed his heart, but before he could say anything, Jiuxian spoke up first.

“She doesn’t have much time left, no…” The goddess of fate seemed to see something. A long moment passed before Jiuxian continued. A drop of tears fell from her beautiful blue eyes. “…Her time is up.”

Feilong nodded. “The royal doctor said that this beast’s flame could destroy even the soul.”

“She is fading away,” Jiuxian said.

“Is there a way to help her?” Hongxian asked, despite knowing what fading away meant.

Fade away… No more lives. No more reincarnation. Nothing was left, not even the soul.

“You wouldn’t want me to do it.” It was not impossible to help, but Jiuxian did not want it to lead to the future she saw. This woman…Bai Yu’s fate was too cruel…

Too cruel for everyone here!

“Help her!” Feilong could not bear to be without her for countless lives from here on, not even a glimpse of her soul. “You have to save her, no matter the cost.”

Jiuxian’s heart was heavy. The fate she foresaw was not something easy…

Bai Yu had to be reborn in the mortal world with an incomplete soul, and that would make her cultivation of immortality immensely difficult. She would not be able to return to heaven so easily.

Feilong had to use every power stored within his soul to patch Bai Yu’s. The Taizi of heaven hoped with the most immense hope that if Jiuxian could return Bai Yu’s soul, he would reincarnate into the mortal world and tie his red string of fate to hers. He hoped that in one of the countless incarnations, he would be able to love her. He would not return to heaven until Bai Yu could.

Hongxian had to follow Feilong to the mortal world to help tie his red string. He could not bear the guilt of his beast being the cause of this tragedy.

The three souls would be bound with mortal coils, facing that fate where they would never converge.

Bai Yu would kill herself, time after time.

Feilong would never be able to meet his beloved woman. Every time he came close to her, she would meet her death at her own hands.

Hongxian could not help his brother. His whole life, he could only protect Feilong before dying, life after life.

Jiuxian could not accept this future…

“Jiejie…” A soft call from Feilong pulled her out of the vision. “…You know well how it feels to lose your love.”

The man, who was like her younger brother, came close, then said in a whisper that only the two could hear. “Brother loves you. He has always loved you. The fate of the two of you was decided from the start…” Jiuxian’s eyes widened at the truth from Feilong. “…I don’t need the title of Taizi. I only need Bai Yu.”

“…Feilong…”

“Please…” The Taizi of heaven kneeled down in front of the goddess of fate, who held his only hope. “No matter what the future might entail, for me, only her being alive is enough.”

Jiuxian was deeply moved by the scene in front of her. She turned to Hongxian. However, what she received was not an answer or a suggestion. There was only silence before he kneeled down next to his brother.

“Help her,” Hongxian said. It was only two words, yet the meaning was terribly clear.

“Even though you will never be with her?” she asked the two men in front of her.

“As long as she lives,” Feilong replied firmly.

“Even though you won’t be able to return to heaven?”

“As long as they could stay beside each other.” Hongxian’s answer was as resolute as his brother’s. There was no more resistance in the beginning. His brother’s tears, his pain, everything Hongxian felt made it impossible for him to try and break the lovers apart.

Hongxian loved Jiuxian. But he equally loved Feilong as well. Again, love had made a fool out of them.

“Please.”

The two princes said it at the same time, still kneeling in front of the goddess of fate.

“Then so be it.”

This is the fate you have chosen. As the goddess of fate, I can only give guidance. From here on, fate will be your own. Do not curse me for it.

“I will help her.”
