Rise of Humanity

Chapter 1105 - Love and Dao



Zhong Yue shook his head and said softly, “Do you still remember the old man?”

For a second, Feng Xiaozhong’s eyes twitched, his cool lost entirely and he smirked, “You think I wouldn’t kill you by bringing up my old man?”

“The first time I met Old Man Feng Shang was when he is carving a jade statue in Swords Gate.”

Zhong Yue gently reminisced, at this moment, he was not the unstoppable commander that could tremble the heaven and earth with a simple stomp. He had returned to the time he was still a young boy, when he first met the old headmaster of Swords Gate — Feng Shang.

Back then, Feng Shang silently carved the statue of a lady with wings, it was a lady of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race. She had three heads, all of them beautiful yet unique. One was gentle, the other was a little mischievous, and the last one was earnest.

“The old man loved to indulge himself in his statue carving, I thought he was carving a lady he loved, but after some time, he told me that it was his daughter in law.”

Zhong Yue continued, “Back then, he must have already had the intention to set you free, but at the same time, he worried that your unstable Dao heart that plunged you into madness. So he set out to make the statue of your wife, as a beacon so that you wouldn’t lose yourself. You left regardless in the end, but perhaps, the old man knew that you and I would cross paths, so he gave me that jade statue.”

“Are you trying to control me through this woman!”

Killing intent flared up in Feng Xiaozhong’s eyes, his aura made Zhong Yue felt like he was a tiny ship struggling on a raging ocean, Feng Xiaozhong had entirely made up his mind to kill Zhong Yue!

As a Dao seeker, Feng Xiaozhong sought only for Daos, he valued only two things, one being the undefeatable father in his heart, Old Man Feng Shang, and the other being his wife, the love of his life that was executed by the Xiao Mang Celestial Race.

His father resembled caring and love and his wife symbolized everything perfect in his heart.

Thus, when Zhong Yue dugged out the treasured memories in Feng Xiaozhong, the latter took it as an insult and an attempt to control him!

Zhong Yue shook his head and said, “Something is stopping you inside and this is something you must overcome. You loved the Xiao Mang lady with everything you had and look, I found a lady exactly like her, if you are really enthusiastic in seeking the Dao, then kill her!”

Madness rose in the angry Feng Xiaozhong’s eyes, he grinned, “You think I’m scared? Whoever that stops me from seeking the Dao will be struck down with no mercy! There will be no exception!”

With raging killing intent, Feng Xiaozhong started walking towards Pan Suxin, who was still running around in Heaven Breaching Fortress, trying to find a way out, noticing nothing about the approaching Feng Xiaozhong.

As Feng Xiaozhong got close, the lady turned around suddenly and her looks gave Feng Xiaozhong a shock of a lifetime, erasing the killing intent in him. The madness in his eyes faded and he looked at the lady gently.

The soft spot in his heart was struck and he couldn’t help but recall the beautiful romance he once had with his wife.

Pan Suxin blinked her eyes and asked, “Senior martial brother, do you know the way out?”

From his awkward face, Feng Xiaozhong forcefully squeezed out a smile and without him knowing, his tone became eerily gentle, “You want to leave this place?”

“Yeah!”

Pan Suxin angrily complained, “This King Yi is beyond unreasonable! He kidnapped me and trapped me here, I have a home too, you know! I want to get out but this stupid place is so huge that I couldn’t find a way out, were you abducted by King Yi as well?”

For some unknown reason, Feng Xiaozhong nodded and seeing this Pan Suxin angrily shouted, “This King Yi is really evil! Don’t worry, I will protect you from his wrath!”

Feng Xiaozhong nodded again and smiled, “Okay, thank you.”

Pan Suxin looked around, snuck up to Feng Xiaozhong and whispered, “I think we should disguise ourselves with the soldiers’ uniforms. It will ease our escape or they would lock us back here again if they caught us.”

But before she finished her words, Feng Xiaozhong vanished in a split second, immobilized two divine generals far away, stripping their armors down and returned to Pan Suxin’s side.

Yet, Pan Suxin did not even notice that Feng Xiaozhong had already walked away and returned again. She stopped talking abruptly when she saw Feng Xiaozhong taking out two sets of armors. The happy and surprised Pan Suxin shouted, “You had such items with you the whole time? You must have been preparing for a very long time! Oh right, what is your name?”

“I am Feng Xiaozhong.”

The duo put on the armors, Pan Suxin lowered the mask on the headgear, covered her face, held onto Feng Xiaozhong’s hand and whispered, “Come with me.”

Feng Xiaozhong followed behind her and he warned, “It will not be easy….”

“Which is why we must be careful and not let King Yi detect us! That fool is very capable, we must be very cautious!”

Pan Suxin’s expression was very serious and she softly said, “I fell into his Six Paths Reincarnations and I couldn’t get out even after traveling for a very long time. If you are trapped by his Six Paths Reincarnations, you will probably end up dying.”

All Feng Xiaozhong did was nodded continuously.

Pan Suxin then brought him around, sneaking about everywhere and Chi Song who was patrolling around noticed the two sneaking around but just when he was about to approach them, he saw an angry stare coming from Feng Xiaozhong. Seeing this, Chi Song immediately pretended that he saw nothing and walked in a different direction.

The Pan Suxin patted her chest in relief and said, “So close! Seems like we got lucky! Little Zhong, you are right in following me!”

Yet, a divine general approached, “Hey, you two….”

Pa—-

With a slap, Feng Xiaozhong slapped the general’s senses out of him, Pan Suxin’s heart raised to her throat and she let out a breath seeing this, “So fast, little Zhong!”

For a second, Feng Xiaozhong lost his mind under this warm smile and the happy memories he cherished rose.

In the next second, Feng Xiaozhong’s gaze turned devilish and fierce, his hands raised as he mumbled, “You are after all, not her! You are not her!”

“Hurry up!” waved Pan Suxin as she walked away.

The killing intent in his eyes vanished under this wave and he obediently followed behind Pan Suxin as she whispered, “I see the gates now! I’m so nervous right now! We are almost out of here! Make sure you follow behind me closely or you’ll be captured by the demon king King Yi again!”

Feng Xiaozhong nodded, “We will leave whenever you are ready!”

The duo waited for some time until Zhong Yue had the patrols shifting shifts and the two escaped through the loopholes created by the shift changing.

Feng Xiaozhong turned around upon feeling a gaze locking on him and he saw Zhong Yue waving back at him at a corner.

He gave Zhong Yue a complicated glance and he turned away with Pan Suxin seconds later.

As for Pan Suxin, she was shivering under the excitement and disbelief of them getting out, “We actually got out! We escaped from the infamous King Yi’s soldiers! Little Zhong, you really are my lucky star!”

This time, Feng Xiaozhong smiled again but his smile was much more sincere, “Where are you planning to go? Back to Panhu Clan?”

Pan Suxin was caught off guard by this question and she shook her head, “Panhu Clan? I can’t return and there is no other way for them to accept me anymore. Clan master did not hesitate to sacrifice me in order to capture King Yi, if it weren’t for King Yi, I would be dead by now… Little Zhong, the Imperial Star is where the main war is, too chaotic and too cold-blooded for us. Let’s leave this place and together, we will find a peaceful place far away from war.”

“Wherever you go, I will follow.” replied Feng Xiaozhong.

And the two left.

In the fortress, Zhong Yue watched as they left, Yin Fanxuan joined Zhong Yue and she suddenly said, “An ending like theirs is not bad, at least to me.”

Zhong Yue nodded, wrapped his arms around her and said, “I suppose, you and I will be like that one day.”

Yin Fanxuan smiled, “Darling, why do you think Senior Martial Brother Feng will go with her? What if he is as cold-blooded as I thought?”

Zhong Yue rebutted with a shook, “Senior Martial Brother Feng is not someone to be judged with common logic. He is one that pours all his efforts and spirit into Daos, if he is so in love with Daos, then he will be extremely loyal to love as well. Pan Suxin will help Senior Martial Brother Feng find his love again. And because of that, he cannot kill her.”

“And why do you think that the lady will love him back?” asked Yin Fanxuan again.

“Senior Martial Brother Feng is not a good person, but he has his own charms. I’m not too worried about that.”

Yin Fanxuan hesitated, “So… does he thinks that she is Pan Suxin or his wife? Can he differentiate it?”

Zhong Yue too, was confused at this question and he smiled back, “Once Senior Martial Brother Feng finds his love again, his son will be the one that should be worried! Xiao Wuji, if you dare to show yourself in front of me again, I will realize my promise to you!”

In the Dating Clan located in the Imperial Star, Xiao Wuji, who was visiting the clan, suddenly trembled under a mysterious coldness, Huh? Why am I feeling so uneasy all of a sudden?

“Elder Luo, you may have little to no affair to this common world but you are still an elder of the Dating Clan. Now that the clan is losing, how can you sit out of this?”

Feng Wuji cast aside his uneasiness and said towards an innate god with horns, “Now, the Dating Clan is tied to the Heaven Court. As someone from the Bi Luo Palace, you should be out there, Elder Luo.”

The elder, however, shook and said, “Mister Bi Luo only sent us out to see more of this world for ourselves, not to meddle with common affairs. We are here to purify our hearts. We are not interested in your affairs.”

Feng Wuji rolled his eyes and said, “Elder Luo, do you remember King Yi who disguised as me and acquired the ways of immortality from you without you knowing his true identity? Back then, he promised to spare you and you were extremely furious about it, now that King Yi is just out there, you decide to chicken out instead?”

Hearing this, Elder Luo’s eyes twitched and he said, “Fine, I will come with you and meet King Yi myself!”

Happiness struck Feng Wuji right away and he bowed, “To be honest, I am here under His Majesty’s order, with the token bestowed by His Majesty, I am to persuade the Bohuang Clan. Wuhuai Clan, Shuilong Clan into joining us in this fight. Elder Luo, why don’t you come with me, to the Wuhuai Clan and Shuilong Clan I know that there are your senior martial brothers over there as well. Besides, with only me, I’m afraid that I can’t persuade them!”

“Alright, I will come with you to convince them and by then, we will see the differences between us and King Yi!”

The happy Feng Xiaozhong added, “There are already the Signs of Nine-Five in our Panhu Clan’s State of Heavenly River, with your aid, our strength will only multiply!”
