The Dragon Heroes and the Princess Rong’jie pt.1
"What do they do when you can't kill?"Guo Fen lowered his head, and his shoulders as if the memories were being crushed one by one until he couldn't move and surrendered to his fate."They rushed me," replied Guo Fen.The girl sighed as she put her hands on her hips. “If you can't kill, then you don't have to. That's fine. But, you can't go on forever without killing. Do you not intend to avenge your father?”“My father died because of my mother. Meanwhile, I can't kill my mother. Besides I don't know where she is, I can't do it because… she's my mother.”The girl whose name Guo Fen still didn't know raised the corners of her lips and chuckled lightly. "What a pity. You're still a kid, but the world has shown blood on you. But don't worry, I'm the same as you. At the age of three, I was taught how to kill. And it turns out, it feels so satisfying when you thrust your sword into an enemy when you feel like you're almost dying from the hatred that has seeped into your chest.”Gu

The girl knitted her brows, then threw her sword, and deftly, it spun in the air. Rong Mei catches with the thumb under the grip and the four fingers on top. The wind cut through Rong Mei's running speed, and the girl thrust her sword into Guo Fen's heart again. What Guo Fen noticed all along was that Rong Mei always easily moved her right shoulder towards his heart. It was as if she was so used to it. But of course, Guo Fen dodged it neatly. He spun around and parried Rong Mei's longsword with his ice blade.The sound of swords and ice crystals clinking. Almost gave off a spark. Guo Fen held the ice knife with both hands. When Rong Mei spun around to slash with even stronger force to chop Guo Fen, Guo Fen had already predicted it. He ducked faster, Rong Mei raised her hand, rotated the position of the sword in the air then took the sword in a different position so she could use the long sword like holding a short knife.Guo Fen knew her next move, he spun around, turned his back o

Rong Mei's cottage was directly opposite the cliff wall of the Shen mountains that flanked the plains between Shanyi Village and the Imperial area. When the sun rises, the sun's light peeps gradually from behind the mountain cliffs, illuminating the front of the hut which has no walls. At that time Rong Mei heard the familiar sound of flapping bird wings. She immediately came out of the hut and looked up at the sky.Postal birds came from the air and landed with their wings spread on a large log that was piled not far from the edge of the cliff. Rong Mei approached the bird and then took the small scroll tied behind the bird. Only certain people can send messages to Rong Mei's hut. And those people are those who have used or will use their services in terms of 'revenge' or simply 'annihilate' someone.Rong Mei read the small message inside containing; “Chief Imperial Tea Picker. Wang Chu Xie.”With the wind gently blowing past her face, Rong Mei immediately crumpled the small piec
The Dragon Heroes and the Princess The Boy and the Lotus Girl pt.2
At that time, three years ago, Guo Fen met Lan Ju Xiong who had a gloomy aura. His hair almost covered his eyes and he seemed to have no zest for life. But when the young man raised his bow and shot at the birds in the sky to threaten Guo Fen who did not want to part with the boss who was said to have helped him bury his father's body, Guo Fen knew that the young man's request was not a joke and he would pay more.As a result, Guo Fen apologized and promised to return to the boss at the fruit shop and not forget his kindness. After Ju Xiong took Guo Fen on horseback, driving for nearly an hour, he arrived at the bandit settlement on the outskirts of the city. The residence was a bit far from the mountain, but due to its position on a plateau, Guo Fen could see a stretch of houses scattered to the east near the palace grounds.Then Chairman Han—who looked a little old but had a reassuring smile told Guo Fen to try hauling two pigs at once and take them to the kitchen to be cooked.

The Dragon Heroes and the Princess Mission: Learn How To Kill
The only way to the palace area is through the roofs and hidden behind the layers of clay. Guo Fen certainly wasn't used to walking on rooftops. His position was tilted and he had to make sure his shoes weren't slippery when he stepped on the tile. Although a little anxious, he still managed to balance himself and followed Rong Mei without making a sound. Rong Mei's footsteps did not sound at all. The soles of her feet were as smooth as cloth falling on the ground. Her eyes were sharp and alert lurking from behind hiding and guessed when the officers crossed the middle of the road.“Rong’jie, are we going to the palace? Our position seems to be on its way there,” whispered Guo Fen looking far ahead. In the middle of the bustling and bustling city, Guo Fen could see a majestic grand wall as the palace territory was getting closer.Rong Mei's eyes narrowed. She answered slowly, "No. We are going to the office's residence.""Wang Chu Xie?"Rong Mei nodded. “I have to see who is keep
The Dragon Heroes and the Princess Missed Aim
Guo Fen was stunned. Unknowingly, Rong Mei's words seemed to fill a small jug in his heart which had always felt confusing and empty. Losing a father was the most painful state for Guo Fen. But Guo Fen knew that if he continued to feel sorry for himself, he would not be able to progress and he would not be able to learn to kill and move on. Guo Fen believes that the future is also more precious than wounds. There was something precious that Guo Fen could have from his father's death. Something formed Guo Fen from that wound.“A person can be very strong when he falls hurt. The deeper the wound, the stronger that person survives.” Rong Mei said, adding on seeing Guo Fen speechless at her words. Rong Mei didn't know if Guo Fen understood, but seeing that a child of Guo Fen's age had to think about this matter, she felt a little pity. Secretly, Rong Mei wondered if when she was little her teacher felt the same way when she raised her.At a time like this, Rong Mei misses her teacher w
The Dragon Heroes and the Princess May Lotus Bring Peace of Your Death
Rong Mei put Wang Chu Xie down from her shoulders and half slammed it on the ground. Guo Fen stayed behind, watching the girl take out a knife from her pocket and stab it in one fell swoop, Wang Chu Xie's halting breath was instantly cut off. The sound of silence grabbed. The cold wind howled softly. The tips of the tea leaves around the tea garden swayed gently. Blowing out a last goodbye message to celebrate the death of Wang Chu Xie.“Let this lotus flower take you where it should be. Goodbye," whispered Rong Mei while placing a white lotus flower on Wang Chu Xie's body which was lying on the ground. Behind him, a boulder propped the man up. As it turned out, Guo Fen's arrow had only hit Wang Chu Xie's throat. Not really skewered there.In guilt, Guo Fen remained in place until Rong Mei turned around to find him still holding the bow with mixed feelings."It's finished. Let's go back," said Rong Mei quietly.Guo Fen followed Rong Mei to the tea garden field and walked for near
The Dragon Heroes and the Princess IV. LOTUS LADY
Guo Fen sat in front of the two women at the square dining table in front of the wallless hut building. The stove over the firewood is boiling. The water is used to boil the tea while Rong Mei prepares small clay cups and teapots to mix the tea. There is nothing fancy about the equipment in the lodge. Guo Fen secretly watched."What do you want to ask?" asked the woman suddenly.Physically, this woman was probably around forty or fifty. Her face was so beautiful that she didn't even look forty if it weren't for her deep voice. Her eyes were gentle and showed a hint of warmth, only her expression was stiff and cold. As if not wanting to show the real side.“Many things,” Guo Fen muttered with a small smile.Rong Mei came with a teapot and tea stew in her hands. She walked over to the table and poured tea into a glass. The steam was billowing, and the smell of tea wafted through the air."Just ask. I know by now you must be wondering if this is my teacher who was in the black ink

The Burning Memories
A few days after Bai Lianhua said her name was Hei Lianhua, she wanted her mother to also pretend to be her aunt. Bai Lianhua carefully tells the plan to uncover Bai Naxing's past through Detective Han Wu. Even though it was several days until the day Bai Naxing would marry the future emperor Li Ming Lao, people were too busy to think about where Bai Naxing had appeared from.No wonder the last time she was about to look for Bai Naxing at the Wine Shop and the Spring Maiden's name Bai Naxing, even her mother—Gao Renwei seemed to have forgotten. It must have been since the day the palace officials came to ask about the betrothal with Bai Naxing, everyone had shut their mouths and eyes. She didn't know how dirty it was, but the evidence that twelve-year-old Bai Naxing had been sold to a brothel couldn't just disappear.Unfortunately, recently, if there were people who spoke ill of the future emperor or empress, they would be immediately executed. Apart from being labeled as disrespec
Black Lotus
“Lianhua,” Yao Yupan called when the girl was staring at the black painting in her room. Bai Lianhua got up from the chair and turned to the doorway where her mother was standing."There's someone who wants to meet you."It must be Detective Han Wu, Bai Lianhua muttered. She didn't say anything and walked past her mother. But just as she was about to take a step, Yao Yupan grabbed her hand.With a worried look, the woman whispered softly, “You're not involved in any trouble, are you? That person seems to be from the palace.”Bai Lianhua's eyes swept across the terrace at the front of the residence. The figure of a large man with broad shoulders and slightly white hair standing back."Take it easy, Mother. I'm not causing any trouble.""You know that person?""Yes. I was the one who invited him here.”"What for?" Yao Yupan grew even more worried. “I know you've been angry with your half-sister, but… you have to listen to what your teacher says. Don't live with grudges."Bai Lianhua was
The Never Ending Feelings
The sound of a burning fire broke the silence of the night. Guo Fen suddenly didn't realize he had been crying. While beside him Rong Mei was silent as if she could feel again the sadness her teacher had felt. In front of him, Bai Lianhua's nearly half-a-century-old face did not change. Guo Fen felt that this woman was almost like the granny lotus in Guo Fen's imagination all along.It's the saddest thing to hear granny lotus doesn't get a happy ending.“Then now, where is granny lotus? Are you looking for her in that palace? Bai Naxing is so ruthless! Besides her daring to kill her own mother—although I'm actually a little happy about that part—she really is a cruel woman! What your father said was right, Bai Naxing has a terrible devil's heart,” exclaimed Guo Fen who suddenly understood the emotion that was evident in every story of Bai Lianhua.As a child who had just escaped from a band of bandits, it turned out that his life was not as bad as Bai Lianhua's. All this time he t
Revenge
As soon as Bai Lianhua came back from the lotus swamp hut, she rushed home hoping to think of a plan to face Bai Naxing. Even though her half-sister was almost as tall as the sky—as she was about to become the future empress, Bai Lianhua didn't care. She must find granny lotus and free her. But before Bai Lianhua's mind cleared of all the tightness in her chest, from the door of her residence, a woman—her neighbor, cried out in panic with wide eyes.“Lianhua! Lianhua! Quickly help your mother! She—she—” With the nervousness that was shouted out like that, it was clear Bai Lianhua's heart was getting restless. She saw that there were several people standing in front of the door of the house. Bai Lianhua pressed in. Her thoughts became increasingly chaotic when she walked to the edge of the room where her father was. As she ran, from the hallway came a woman's voice crying. She knew that voice very well.Suddenly, her heart pounded and her hands clenched into fists. When she reached the
Warrior Organization
That night, after accompanying Bai Junhui to paint for a while in the garden of the village in front of the lake, people passing by were no longer interested in seeing Bai Junhui's work. Whereas in the past, Bai Junhui's ideals were so honorable that he was like a noble who had extraordinary talent. Moreover, now people prefer to forget about Bai Junhui and don't want to get involved in anything. Actually, things weren't that bad, at least Bai Lianhua could focus on monitoring her father.After dinner, Yao Yupan cleaned up the dining area and Bai Junhui helped her for a bit. Although the man's movement was still a little weak, he was able to move more nimbly. Although it is not known whether the effect of the egg of the turtle goddess can completely erase the wound inside Bai Junhui, Bai Lianhua can only hope. Bai Lianhua went to the lotus marsh and gave her the box her father had just given her. She had promised that today she would have to practice some moves under the moonlight.
The Day After
The turtle goddess egg given by Granny Lotus turned out to be very effective. Within a few hours after Bai Junhui consumed it, he was able to sit up and look back at his painting. When Bai Lianhua brought food to the room, she saw her father packing up the painting tools into the basket that he used to bring when he wanted to paint outdoors."Father, where are you going?"Bai Junhui turned his head, he smiled happily. Although his face is still a little pale, he already looks healthier and fitter."I want to go to the park. You want to come?"Bai Lianhua naturally wanted to come along. She and Bai Junhui together went to the park where he had painted Gao Renwei for the first time. Bai Lianhua didn't know this garden had once witnessed Bai Junhui fall to his knees at Gao Renwei's beauty.Painstakingly, Bai Junhui placed a wooden canvas stand in front of the calm waters of the lake while the sunlight gently bathed the vast meadow. From behind him, Bai Lianhua saw her father's weak and s
Turtle Goddes Egg
After that incident, Bai Junhui was busy painting all the time. Even Yao Yupan, who was worried because her ex-husband never ate together again, wondered what was going on. At first Bai Lianhua didn't want to tell, but because it seemed that this matter couldn't be covered up for long either, Bai Lianhua explained everything.“Then… is your father going there?” asked Yao Yupan a little worriedly.Bai Lianhua shook her head hard. “No,” with a heart already burning with hatred because of her half-sister's behavior, let alone coming, just to see her, Bai Lianhua would never allow her father to have any further contact with that demon.“No wonder a few days ago, there was news that King Li Ming Lao would be carrying out a marriage. The celebration was so exciting. At the Civil Palace, several lanterns and decorations have been installed to celebrate the day. Because on the same wedding day, King Li Ming Lao will ascend the throne to become Emperor. But… in that case, it's good for Bai
Sudden Revenge
"Surprised, huh?" she replied softly. On her lips, tugged a sly smile. The scene three years ago—when the girl was still wearing a pink hanfu, walking out of the Wine Shop and the Spring Maiden in Li Ming City's palace market had almost disappeared. Her stature was completely different and it made Bai Lianhua freeze. Inside the house, her father stood with a gloomy face. It was as if he had heard something that Bai Lianhua had missed."What are you doing here?" asked Bai Lianhua straightly.Without answering, Bai Naxing raised a hand, and a maid who had been crouching beside her held out a scroll. Bai Lianhua accepted that and unrolled.It was clearly a wedding invitation. But what took Bai Lianhua by surprise was that the wedding invitation was made very formal and had an imperial seal. Bai Lianhua's eyes almost popped out, she gripped the scroll tightly and then looked at Bai Naxing in front of her. The girl smiled sweetly."You will definitely come, won't you?" she said withou
Surprise
Three years after Bai Lianhua brought Bai Junhui back to Shanyi Village, last night was the point where Bai Lianhua could feel her father was truly back here. Even though his soul was occasionally left in the Li Ming city palace, sometimes he still muttered while painting things that smelled of Gao Renwei, but Bai Lianhua has started to understand little by little how her father let go of his stupidity and a broken heart. Every now and then Bai Lianhua would ask granny lotus about a love affair and why humans would succumb to such things, but then granny lotus would just laugh and say, “You're the only one who seems too smart to be fooled by something called love. You're very ambitious, but you're also naive at times. Feeling disappointed because your father left you first build a stronghold high on your own expectations. Makes you more focused on protecting and protecting people from feelings they might be experiencing as you are experiencing too. It's a virtue that can lead astray, L
