Lord Shadow

In that three days, the two Devils seems to be thinking about a lot of things.

Azief could guess they are thinking about the matter of the past. Now that they have seen that Wu Qi had slowly assembling his old life again, they too seem to be deep in thought.

The Three Devils of Han come together because they wanted to avenge their family. Azief sword strike had ended that goal.

The Emperor of Yong that have framed their families is dead.

Then why still stay? What more needs to be done? Azief knows that all the three Devils surely had not thought that they would have a chance to think this.

They must not have thought that they could even fulfil their objective. Azief appearance once again seems to show its impact but changing the fates of the Three Devils.

Xi Feng on the other hand think and ponder of the story of Lin Guifei.

He was deeply amazed at the love that Lin Guifei had for Wu Qi and sometimes Azief thinks his disciple would think of that Poison Maiden in the Poison valley.

He seems to be thinking about whether such love really exist in the world. Such powerful love that no one could come in between them. And he ponders about what is true love.

Time and suffering did not erase the feeling that Lin Guifei had for Wu Qi. Some poets said that woman are fickle and men are coldhearted.

But the story of Lin Guifei and Wu Qi shows a broken man with a strong woman who fought for the love she wanted

Then there is also the matter of the Emperor and Lin Guifei. Men are tender in its compassion towards beauties, and woman is not always a fickle being.

Azief himself was thinking a lot. His mind seems to gravitate towards two women in his life that impacted him the most.

In that three days they did not move away from the forest as they waited. In the third day, Wu Qi returned.

Azief only asked one thing when he returned

‘What is your name?’ he asked. And Wu Qi answer

‘Han Xiao’ Azief only sighed and nodded

He then looks towards that villa in the distance and sighed. He touched the sword in his lap as countless word light were unleashed upon a rocky hill.

When the light faded out what is left is a declaration in the form of a deep carved words into the stony surface of the hill.

Han Xiao look at that word carved onto the stony surface of the hill and he nodded. Xi Feng pushed his wheelchair once again as they leave the forest and the mystical Lin Villa.

The sound of flute playing as they departed was melancholic and very sad but the few notes in the end seems to hint at yearning.

Azief praises at the melodies and even Xi Feng was affected by the music. When the music ended, the forest around the Lin Villa suddenly were filled with fog.

Han Xiao did not look back at that Villa but a tear falls down from his face and there is a fire of determination in his eyes.

Azief knew why the Crippled Devil could not look back.

Because Azief is also like this sometimes. If Han Xiao look back, he might not have the determination to take that one step forward.

Love could be simple…and it could be hard.

It is not this fairytale life where everything is rainbows and full of only happy moments.

There will be pain. There will be hurt but through it all, overcoming it and getting past it, that is how you keep the love.

Azief don’t know what to say to Han Xiao because he could not choose the way other people live their life. Han Xiao had chosen. And he had chosen to follow him.

The only thing he could do was leaving that carving into the stony hill. What he carved onto that stony hill was that

‘Sword God will bring the Three Devils back’

Azief did not know what she would think, but he would hope his promise would ease the heart of Lin Guifei

Once he made a promise he would surely fulfil it. He knows that Han Xiao wanted to accompany him in this last journey.

Everyone could feel it. This is the conclusion. And all of this is a prelude to the epilogue.

Azief never acknowledged them as his disciple but the Three Devils truly thought him as a teacher.

They all have seen the peculiarities that he possesses and they believe that Azief is not some normal human.

No normal human could send a sword strike that surpasses Space and Time. Only immortals from the High heavens could do that.

They believe it to be so and they are not that far from the truth. The story that Lin Guifei told them is a story that none of them, would ever forget.

They continued on, in this journey that is slowly reaching to its end. Azief is now finally coming down to Yong.

They did not take the long road instead coming down toward Jiaping Pass

Azief had expected soldiers would ambush him when he enters the vicinity of the Pass.

But something else happened.

It seems that when he arrived, the soldiers there just let him stroll inside Yong Empire. There was no ambush. The soldiers from Liu pass not far away from the Jiaping Pass did not come out and chases him.

And Azief frowned as he just shakes his head.

He knows that unlike Emperor Wen of Zhou, the new Emperor of Yogh is a bit more manipulative and probably more scheming than his own father.

Azief had seen all kinds of people and he knows a schemer when he saw one.

Even though, that is the truth he was not worried. Simply, because he has a sword on top of his lap. With that sword, he fears nothing., Even without the sword, he will still fear nothing.

There is a lot of places that he wants to go in Yong.

He wants to go to the Sword Residence at Ruo and fought with one of the famous and strongest swordsman grandmaster of the era, Sword of Justice, Fang Jian

There is also the Yongxian Valley where the Cloud Abode is said to be situated.

Like the Temple of Xi, it is also very mysterious but one had said that it is hidden. Azief might have his Divine Sense but he will not use it for such thing.

And there is the Martial Alliance on top of the Yong Mountain. Azief had said it already to Xi Feng.

That this is an enemy that he would not fight for him.

He wanted Xi Feng to master the martial arts that he created and one day storms the gate of the Martial Alliance.

At that time, he could make his own decision. Whether to kill or to spare.

Azief and Xi Feng talk a lot when the sun comes down.

Mostly about the feeling he had after killing all of those Sun Devouring Sect members and the Vulture Peak members.

He felt only emptiness. Killing them would not bring back the children. Then what does he seeks Azief once asked.

Was it justice? Or revenge? What did you learn your martial arts for? What did you intend to do when you become strong?

Is it to foster your ambition? Is it to raise your sword against injustice? Or is it only to avenge?

When one swings the sword, why did one swing the sword? Even if it is only to fight, there is reason.

A kid that swing his fist to another kid because he is angry would say the reason why he swings his fist is because he is angry.

A simple reason but a reason after all. One had to be completely honest with oneself to see past through all the deceptions and lies that some people cover themselves up with.

But if Xi Feng were too break through the grandmaster realm, then he must ask himself tis question?

Energy would not be a problem. Even Xi Feng body could be strengthened with many practices. But the heart?

The intentions? That will lead the path that Xi Feng has to walk on later.
