Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

403 An undefeatable Warrior

Yuze was standing at the edge of the cliff and held a walking stick that was carved from dried sap of cinnabar. Along with the wind, his outfit blew along with it. His long white hair and white beard also blew in the wind’s direction.

“Where are you Qiu Qizhen? The Kingdom needs you. Your son is on the path, where he needs you. It is the time for you to show yourself,” Yuze muttered. He heard the footsteps and straightened his face, thus the frown from his forehead disappeared.

“Master, I brought Ye Yujin,” Xiwan said and removed the fabric with which he had coveted his face. Yuze looked at Ye Yujin, who was lying on the floor, and then, he glanced at Xiwan.

“How is Li Hua?” Yuze asked him and walked up to him.

“She is alright and is in the palace,” Xiwan replied. Yuze hummed and looked at Yu Yujin.

“Master, let me kill him,” Xiwan requested Yuze.

“Send his corpse to the palace. You know how to duplicate his writing, so write in the message to the King what I will tell you,” Yuze said.

Xiwan thanked Yuze for permitting him to kill Ye Yujin. “I waited for this day for many years. I still remember the day when Ye Yujin killed my father. Thank you, Master,” Xiwan stated.

“I had promised my student that a day will come when he will avenge his father’s death. Today heavy rain will occur,” Yuze said as he looked at the sky. “Send the corpse in the night. You already know how to do that,” Yuze stated and walked ahead toward his hut.

Xiwan took out the water bag that he had brought with him and poured it over Ye Yujin’s face. He scrunched his brows and eyes as he came out of his unconscious state. Xiwan stepped back, wanting to give Ye Yujin the time to understand his surroundings.

Ye Yujin found him in a weird place, covered in trees and he wondered how he reached that place. He sat up and held his head. He checked the sides of his waistband and found out that there was no dagger. He remembered well that he had carried one with him.

“Are you looking for it?” Ye Yujin heard a masculine voice and turned to look. He immediately got from his place and asked him who he was, and what he wanted from him.

“It is sad that you did not recognize me, Ye Yujin,” Xiwan stated and chuckled. He unsheathed the sword and threw the scabbard on the ground. “Dong Yusheng. Did you not kill him brutally?” Xiwan reminded Ye Yujin.

“Dong Yusheng,” Yu Yujin as he recalled that name. The prime minister when Qiu Qizhen was on the throne. “Why are you asking about him? He is no more,” he stated. Ye Yujin was confused thinking why a random man in his mid-twenties was asking about Dong Yusheng.

He attacked Ye Yujin, who had widened his eyes. He dodged the blade and somehow succeeded in picking the scabbard. He defended himself with that. A fierce duel broke out between them. Ye Yujin was astonished at the way Xiwan was attacking him. He had been in so many battles, but he never encountered such a fighter until today.

Ye Yujin was pushed meters away and got on his knee. The fabric tore from his knee and because of the stony ground, his knee got badly bruised.

Ye Yujin quickly got up, finding a way to stop Xiwan, but it was tough for him. Though he was defending himself, in the end, Xiwan overpowered him. He slashed the sword through his thigh and the blood oozed out with a sharp cut. Ye Yujin flinched in pain. Xiwan did not give him even a single second to balance him and slashed his sword from the surface of Ye Yujin’s skin.

Xiwan remembered the way Ye Yujin killed his father, Dong Yusheng. He stopped as he placed his hand on his shoulder and looked into Ye Yujin’s eyes. “I am his son, Dong Xiwan.” With that introduction, Xiwan stabbed the sword into the abdomen of Ye Yujin.

Ye Yujin coughed blood. “His son?” He managed to speak when Xiwan pushed the sword’s blade deep into his abdomen.

“Yes. I am the son of Dong Yusheng,” Xiwan stated and took out the sword from Ye Yujin’s abdomen. He fell behind while placing his hands there to stop bleeding. But it was his end. His eyes closed and he fell to the ground.

Xiwan picked up the scabbard and put the sword in that. The sky thundered and he looked up at the sky. Xiwan recalled the day when his journey as a spy began.

When Xiwan lost his family, Yuze took him under his care and trained him to be the best spy and assassin in the kingdom. Xiwan’s training was tougher than those soldiers in the military.

Xiwan remembered the day when Yuze smiled at him and said, “A day will come when you will kill Ye Yujin. However, for that, you need to wait long.”

“How long?” Xiwan asked as he wiped the tears from the back of his palm.

“The time is not definite, my child. It may take ten years, twenty years, thirty years, and even more. But, you will surely kill Ye Yujin. In that time period, you must remain loyal to yourself and your aim. The training will be tough,” Yuze told Xiwan. “You have to become strong like an iron,” he added.

“As long as I can avenge the death of my father and the innocent people in my family, I am willing to do anything. Tell me, if you can train me into the best warrior of this kingdom,” Xiwan asked and clenched his fists. His eyes had turned red due to intense crying.

“I will turn you into an undefeatable warrior of the kingdom, if you keep your trust in me till the very end,” Yuze stated.

Xiwan got on his knees and lowered his head. “Accept me as your student, Master,” Xiwan said.
