Heavenly Star (Web Novel)

“Sister, close your eyes.”

Ye ShuiYao closed her eyes, with one hand pressing on his chest, wanting to soothe his heartbeat that had momentarily accelerated to the fastest. She knew all along, that the white haired and ruined face Ning Xue, was very important to him…… Subsequently, two miserable cries echoed beside her ears, and the sound of the skin being slashed open.

Two red wounds separately showed up in each of their necks, Ye Wuchen had finally killed people for the first time…… what he used, was the Southern Empire Sword. But, his heart didn’t have the slightest degree of fear and confusion after killing people for the first time, because all the fear and confusion in his own state of mind, were all focused on Ning Xue.

He turned around, carrying Ye ShuiYao as he run back crazily using the fastest speed, until they reached the place where they first had their touching emotions. On the ground, a piece of bright-colored delicate flower still blossomed.

He crossed over the creek, laying Ye ShuiYao’s body down in the middle of the withered grass. The grasses here were surprisingly high, enough to cover her entire figure: “Sister, wait here for a short while…… I will bring Ning Xue back.” He spoke calmly, but his voice was slightly shaking.

Ye ShuiYao stood up firmly gripping his arm, using all her strength to shake her head: “Don’t go, please don’t go, Feng Lie said he will never let you get away, when you go now it will similar to throwing away your life!”

“I…… must go……”

“You can’t!” Ye ShuiYao pulled him back with all her might, pleading: “Xiao Chen…… Their place must be thoroughly equipped, by all means please don’t go. Let’s head home immediately, let grandpa show up personally, no matter how huge the price we ought to pay, our Ye family will certainly get her back, all right…… Xiao Chen, please don’t be too impulsive.”

Ye Wuchen pressed down her shoulders, made her slowly sit down, looking at her eyes, those red eyes, with each word as solid as metal he said: “I should be impulsive…… if I’m not being impulsive, I will never forgive myself in this life…… Returning to Ye residence? Don’t say a few days, if Xue-er stayed a second more longer in their arms, I couldn’t bear it…… Listen to me, me and Xue-er will be back soon…… very soon.”

He turned his head away, using his full strength to rush towards the direction of the Tian Long City. Ye ShuiYao didn’t pull him back, she could only stare blankly at his figure as it moved farther away, and disappeared…...

She curled up her body sitting on the grass, the coldness spread through her entire body reaching her innermost being. The only hope she had in her heart, was to wait for his safe return.

Feng Ru proudly returned back to the palace, arriving at Feng Lie’s study room, she discovered Feng Lie and Feng Ling were both there which they were supposed to be resting on their beds, the anger in Feng Lie’s face haven’t gone away, at a glimpse he doesn’t seem to have anything unusual, but when he was sent back to the palace, he was suddenly woken up from his indescribable confused state. Feng Lie’s face was full of shameful expression, bandages wrapped around his body, his sitting posture looked so stiff.

Feng Ru went over and asked: “Brother…… brother, what’s the condition of your injury now?”

Feng Ling laughed bitterly: “It’s not a hindrance, since they’ve connected them back, it will completely recover soon. Having the magnificent cure from Elder Fu, this kind of injury was not that serious. Oh? This person you got……”

Feng Ru laughed delightedly: “This is the white haired little girl beside Ye Wuchen, when Ye Wuchen left I chased after them for a very long time, at long last I have captured one of them.”

“You evil persons…… My brother and Sister Tong Xin will never let you get away!” Ning Xue’s tear stains were still present, she suppressed the fear inside her heart, strongly holding back the tears not to let them fall down again.

With his back facing them, Feng Lie fiercely turned around, his eyes shot a glance at Ning Xue like a sharp arrow, making her to shiver all over, her body retreated back a bit. He was first bewildered, then in a deep voice he said: “That’s right, this was indeed the little girl that was travelling with them, I was discussing with your brother a while ago about dealing with the aftermath…… humph, Ru-er, where did you find her?”

“In a nearby place at the western gate of the city, I knew they wouldn’t gone too far. Sure enough I have found them, other members must be close by, I’ve already commanded our people to find them, even if they found them and unable to capture them, at least we will let them know that this white-haired girl was already in our hands. Maybe, they will deliver themselves here.”

Feng Lie and Feng Ling looked at each other face to face, both were pondering. Feng Ling said: “Father, when Ye Wuchen intruded before, during such dangerous situation he brought this white haired girl along with him, seemed like she is an important person for him. How could he left her all alone by herself. And this little girl’s hair color and face…… there must be something fishy with them.”

Feng Lie nodded his head, gloomily said: “Humph, like what I have expected, they unexpectedly didn’t leave, having their guts! I hope this is part of their negligence, if they really delivered themselves here, then that will be great…… Daring to take advantage of my Feng family, no matter who he was and no matter who the girl beside them was, I will surely make them regret!”

This time, a guard entered inside, knelt down and said: “Your Majesty, somebody intruded in, he was in fact the person who had taken hostage of Your Majesty.”

“Oh?” Feng Lie and Feng Ling narrowed their eyes, Feng Lie replied in a deep voice: “How many persons?”

“Just him alone.”

“Only one?” Feng Lie furrowed his brows, after he returned he had asked Feng ChaoYang, Feng ChaoYang had opened up that the black dress young girl had a power not being inferior to him, she had firmly controlled his moves, Feng Lie was shocked, recalling the terrible feeling he felt in the carriage, causing him not believe the fact. This time he certainly will not just deliver his own life here, that frightening young girl must have been hidden in a dark place.

“Bring him here, no obstructions! Transmit my order, all the imperial guards should make necessary preparations, and be mindful of any command at all times!”

“Yes!”

“We should absolutely not let him escape…… or else the humiliation we’ve suffered today, we could never make up for it.” Feng Lie gripped his fists tightly, with gurgling sound. Then he slowed down his tone of voice, facing ahead he said: “Elder Feng, please handle that scary person.”

“That person didn’t come, only Ye Wuchen came back alone.” A voice echoed back from an unknown place, it was Feng ChaoYang’s voice.

Feng Lie got startled, went silent for quite a long while, couldn’t think of any gaps among these things, then he turned around facing Feng Ru as he nodded and said: “Ru-er, you did it right, this time, you have accidentally obtained a great merit! Today’s humiliation, shall be compensated today!”

Feng Ru’s face was radiant with delight, “Thanks for your praise, Father, to be able to help Father and Brother with the worries and difficulties, I’m truly glad.”

Ning Xue’s heart was greatly worried, she tried hard to struggle free from Feng Ru’s hands, run outside, while she was running she shouted: “Brother, don’t come in, they will capture you, brother, don’t come in……”

Feng Ru grabbed her back in one hand, very fiercely, she said: “Tiny thing, you just shut your mouth. Humph, can’t see Ye Wuchen was truly kind to you, to my surprise he had delivered himself here.”

“Brother----- brother, don’t come in…… brother, quickly return home……” While she was struggling, she used all her strength to shout out, so loud that her voice somehow turned hoarse.

“Shut up!” Feng Ru ruthlessly grabbed her delicate arms, speaking very fiercely, seeing Ning Xue till shouting very loudly, she finally couldn’t take it any longer, she slapped her with the palm of her hand.

“Pak” with this loud sound, Ning Xue endured the very resounding slap on her right cheek, with this slap she got stunned, her shouting voice had consequently stopped. Scarlet fingerprint began to emerge on her delicate face, becoming deeper and deeper, dark red like blood.

“I want you to shut up, didn’t you hear me!” Feng Ru coldly snorted, then disgustedly turned her face away. Feng Ling wrinkled his brows, didn’t say anything, with rapt attention he pondered about the method that Ye Wuchen might use for coming here all alone. Ye Wuchen’s loftiness, he had experienced it earlier. Although he thought that beating this small little girl was unnecessary.

With a hot sore on her face, Ning Xue held back her tears, yet she stubbornly restrained herself not to let the tears fall down.

“Your Majesty, Ye Wuchen has been brought here.”

“Let him in.” Feng Lie yelled, then he inclined glance: “Ru-er, release the little girl.”

Feng Ling also nodded his head. Ye Wuchen taking the emperor as the hostage, that was equivalent to giving the Feng family a ruthless slap on the face. But if their majestic royal family of Feng were to take hostage of a little girl to threaten Ye Wuchen who had came all alone by himself, then that will simply be considered as a disgrace and a joke, it will cause people to denounce them behind their backs. Besides…… based on this situation, releasing her was not only harmless, but will also give Ye Wuchen an additional burden beside himself.

“哥哥……”被放开的凝雪大哭一声，哭喊着向门外跑去，就在叶无辰身影出现在门口那一刻，她一头扎进他的怀中，大声哭喊起来，哭的无比委屈，悲戚。叶无辰将她揽紧，愧疚道：“雪儿不哭了……是哥哥不好，已经没事了……”

“Brother……” Ning Xue cried loudly as she was released, wailing as she run outside, the moment that Ye Wuchen’s figure appeared in the doorway, she run into his arms, crying out loudly, crying out with grievance, very mournful. Ye Wuchen hugged her tightly, and he said with guilt: “Xue-er don’t cry now…… It’s brother’s fault, but it’s okay now……”

瞳心一定遇到了一个可怕的麻烦，他已不可能再等下去，心急如焚的来到大风皇宫，却没有直接闯入，只是让他们去通报，他知道，风烈一定会选择让他进去，而不是将他格杀。

Tong Xin must have encountered a troublesome matter, he couldn’t wait any longer, anxiously headed straight towards the Gale Nation imperial palace, yet he didn’t directly break in, but just let them announce his arrival, he knew that, Feng Lie will definitely let him in, but will not directly kill him.

他目光阴冷的扫过这间书房的每一个人：风烈、受伤的风凌、风茹，另外，必然还有一个隐在暗处的风朝阳，他抚摸着凝雪的头发，冷笑道：“大风国果然有出息，这种手段都用出来了，真是好极，好极了……风凌，我现在有点后悔没把你踢成太监。而风烈……我也后悔没直接杀了你。”

His cold gaze swept through every person inside the study room: Feng Lie, the injured Feng Ling, Feng Ru, furthermore, inevitably Feng ChaoYang who was hidden in a secret place, he gently caressed Ning Xue’s hair, coldly laughed and said: “The Gale Nation was indeed mature enough, even used such kind of method, truly impressive, impressive…… Feng Ling, now I somehow regret that I didn’t kick you hard enough to let you become a eunuch. And Feng Lie…… I also regret that I didn’t kill you right away.”

“口出狂言，现在我看你往那里跑。”风茹站到风凌身前，一副保护他的架势。其实有风朝阳在侧，又何须她，

“Utterly nonsense, now let’s see how you will get away this time.” Feng Ru stood in front of the Feng Ling, striking a posture as if protecting him. Actually with Feng ChaoYang’s presence, there’s no need for her to do that.

风烈冷哼一声道：“叶家无辰，朕不得不佩服你的魄力，居然真的敢孤身前来。既然你来了，就应该有所觉悟。你信不信现在只有朕一声令下，你就会死无全尸！”

Feng Lie coldly snorted: “Ye family Wuchen, I couldn’t help but admire your courage, indeed you really came here all by yourself. Since you are here now, you must have realized something. Do you believe that under my one command, you will die without an intact corpse!”

“哥哥，我们离开这里好不好……我不想待在这里，我们离开好不好……”凝雪抬起头来，双目噙泪，楚楚可怜。

“Brother, can we leave this place now…… I don’t want to stay here, let’s leave please……” Ning Xue lifted up her head, both eyes with tears, so pitiful.

叶无辰低下去，轻声道：“嗯，我们马上离……”

Ye Wuchen lowered down, then softly said: “En, we will immediately leave……”

叶无辰的声音忽然停住，目光一瞬间变得呆滞……又在一瞬间变得狰狞，原本柔和的表情消失不见，脸上的每一个器官，每一处肌肉都在剧烈的抽搐。他的身体开始颤抖，伸出颤抖的手，缓缓的抚向她的脸上……那清晰的指印。那五道血红的印记，如无数刀狠狠的刺入他的心里，让他痛不欲生，眼前甚至开始天旋地转……

Ye Wuchen’s voice suddenly stopped short, his eyes became lifeless in an instant…… and in another instant it turned malevolent, the originally gentle expression had completely vanished, every organ in his face, the muscles in those areas were twitching violently. His body started to tremble, stretching out his hands, he gently caressed her face…… and those distinct fingerprints. Those five bloody red marks, were like numerous knives piercing through his heart, causing miserable pain, the world before his eyes began to spin around……

手摸在凝雪的脸上，无辰之力快速的清除了凝雪残余的疼痛。他抬起头，用变得可怖的眼神看向眼前的三个人，一字一顿的问道：“是……谁……打……的！！”

His hands touching on Ning Xue’s face, his Wuchen power quickly got rid of the remaining pain for Ning Xue. He lifted his head, using the terror eye expression he looked at the three persons before his eyes, with a short pause after each word he asked: “Who…...did…… it!!”

他的左手手背之上，那三个淡色的印记，忽然有两个分别释放出赤色和黑色的光芒，强烈到刺目，比之曾经偶尔闪烁过的几次，强烈了何止千万倍。

At the back of his left hand, those three light marks, suddenly the two of them each released scarlet and black light simultaneously, so strong that it looked dazzling to the eyes, as compared to a few times it flickered up occasionally before, this time it was multiple times stronger.

他的声音明明很低沉，听在耳中，却让他们犹如听到了一只愤怒、绝望的野兽所吼出的狰狞、可怕到极致的咆哮……不，不是野兽，是魔鬼，那是一个魔鬼才能发出的，欲择人而食的恐怖嘶喊。

His voice was evidently deep and low, when it was heard through the ears, it made them seemingly hear an extremely loud roar like a roar from a furious, desperately malevolent, and extremely dreadful kind of beast…… No, not a beast, but a devil, that was something produced by a devil, that terrible shout desiring to consume any human within its path.

一黑一赤，两点光芒越来越强烈，整个御书房也越来越冷，如同一瞬间跌入了寒冰地狱。一刹那，叶无辰脑中已经想好的三个逃离计划全部分崩离析，眼前的世界，蒙蒙一片，犹如被血染红了一般。心中唯有几欲爆炸的怨恨与杀戮之心……

One black and one scarlet, the two lights became stronger and stronger, the entire study room became colder and colder, similar to being fallen into the coldest part of the hell. In an instant, the three escape plans which Ye Wuchen had conjured up in his mind had collapsed and fell apart, the world before his eyes, was vastly misty, just like being turned red by blood. In his heart was only the resentment that will almost make him explode, and the intention to commit a massacre……
