Chapter 6 - The Wind Breaks the Lonely Shadow
Feng Yuchong also acted subconsciously, he knew that Yu Fei's instrument soul Kunlun Qingyang was a long-range type of instrument soul, and even in a sense, it was a little biased towards assisting other instrument souls. At this time, facing the tornado vortex around him that could attack them at any time, he naturally had to stand in front of Yu Fei without hesitation. Among them, of course, there is a reason to protect the girl and the remote soul used by Yu Fei, but there is also a little guilt.
Because Feng Yuchong had previously unleashed the Ice and Fire Witch Clan's secret technique, his own soul internal force was disordered, so that he could not participate in the final battle with the sea dragon, and it also made it impossible for Feng Yuchong and Nangong Yun, who were ready, to fully devote themselves to the final battle. Feng Yuchong was in a state at that time and couldn't finally confront the sea dragon, Nangong Yun finally went deep into the bottom of the ice lake alone with the help of the Absolute Sea Ice River and the Lotus Leaf Fire, and finally defeated the sea dragon with the help of these two forces.
Although Nangong Yun also managed to defeat the sea dragon in the end, if Feng Yuchong did not fall into the internal force disorder of the instrument soul because of the discharge of the Ice and Fire Witch Clan's secret technique, but cooperated with Nangong Yun to carry out the attack, Nangong Yun would not have caused the internal power of the instrument soul to be exhausted due to the dissipation of the fire of the lotus leaf in the end. It can be said that the current situation where the internal power of the Nangong Yun Instrument Soul is exhausted and finally falls into a coma is more or less related to the Ice and Fire Witch Clan's secret technique that Feng Yuchong irrationally discharged from his body before.
It was precisely because he felt that he had a more important responsibility, so Feng Yuchong naturally stood in front of Yu Fei without hesitation, in his consciousness, Yu Fei had previously gathered to release the Soul Six Absolute Sea Ice River with all his strength, and with the help of the power of snow ice crystals and the fire of lotus leaves formed by Nangong Yun's burning vitality, Nangong Yun finally defeated the sea dragon. Yu Fei's internal power was already close to the limit when he released the Absolute Sea Ice, and now in the face of these tornado whirlpools, Feng Yuchong naturally wanted to protect Yu Fei, on the one hand, because he was a little sorry, and on the other hand, because Yu Fei was a girl after all.
It's just that Feng Yuchong is now doing his best to deal with the tornado storm around him that is constantly approaching their position, and he doesn't see an indescribable tenderness on Yu Fei's face behind him, which is an expression that Yu Fei has never had since becoming a saint of the Ming clan. Even, she is about to forget that she is still an ordinary girl, and in a sense she still craves the love and concern of others.
Yu Fei has lived in intrigue and infighting since she was a child, and she is the orthodox descendant of Yu Xuan, the founder of the Ming clan and the adjutant of the Creation God. Therefore, after the Ming clan weakened from its heyday and was banished to the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, Yu Xuan's orthodox descendants still served as the patriarch. And, by the time of Yu Fei's grandfather's generation, there was an internal strife within the Ming tribe that tried to seize the power of the patriarch, and Yu Fei's grandfather was seriously ill within the Ming clan at that time, and Yu Fei's father had not completely controlled the power within the Ming clan in his own hands, and Yu Fei's father's ability was indeed not strong, which led to the fall of the patriarch's power.
And within a month after Yu Fei's grandfather died of illness, there was a huge upheaval within the entire Ming clan, and the two elders of the north and south, who had already held most of the power in the tribe, took the lead in attacking, and the two of them took the members of the tribe who had turned their allegiance to them to attack Yu Fei's father, demanding that he hand over the rights of the patriarch and let the four elders take charge together. To put it bluntly, what the elders of the north and south thought at that time was to take away the power of the Yu family, the patriarch of the Ming clan.
Yu Fei's father did not grasp the power of the patriarch at that time, and when the elders of the north and south led the people together, he only had hundreds of henchmen and guards who followed him, but at that time, the other armed forces and armies in the Ming clan had all been controlled by the elders of the north and south. Yu Fei's father had no choice in the end, he could only choose to fight to the death, because he didn't want to hand over the power that his father had operated for many years to outsiders, and he was even more unwilling to save his life in this way.
It's just that although Yu Fei's father has made full preparations to deal with the army of the elders of the north and south, and although these hundreds of guards are also quite elite and all of them are loyal to the clan leader Yu clan, the difference in the number of troops is not the same. Yu Fei's father was finally defeated and committed suicide in tears. The power of the Yu clan, the patriarch of the Ming clan, which had been inherited for thousands of years, finally fell into the hands of these two elders.
At that time, not long after Yu Fei was born, Yu Fei's father desperately wanted to send Yu Fei away, but was intercepted by Elder Bei's henchmen. But for some reason, when Elder Bei saw the young Yu Fei, he did not kill her, but kept her by his side, raised her, taught her to read and practice martial arts, and even recognized her as his righteous daughter.
It was precisely because of the protection of the Northern Elder that although the Southern Elder of the Ming Clan wanted to kill Yu Fei many times, he was unsuccessful, but because of Yu Fei's existence, there was a rift in the once unbreakable alliance of the Northern and Southern Elders. Even in the end, the two turned against each other because of this, and the internal strife between the two elders made the Ming clan even more chaotic, and there was even a situation where the clansmen fled from their places of residence on a large scale.
It was in such an opportunity that Yu Fei accidentally got a handwritten letter from her biological father from her grandfather's former confidant guard, in which Yu Fei's father told Yu Fei everything that had happened. But in his heart, he didn't want Yu Fei to go to take revenge, because the grievances in it could not be said clearly in a few words, he hoped that if Yu Fei could survive, he would not bear hatred and must live happily.
In fact, this letter was not written to Yu Fei's father, but to the captain of the guard who took care of Yu Fei and her mother at that time. But the captain of the guard was on the way to escort Yu Fei and her mother out of here when they were stopped by the Northern Elder's patrol post. After a conflict and interception, Yu Fei's mother was stabbed three times in order to protect Yu Fei, and finally died, and the captain of the guard was seriously injured and Yu Fei, who was less than two years old at the time, was taken away by the guards of the North Elder.
The captain of the guard was later kept under his command by Elder North and gradually gained his trust, he was troubled by everything that happened day and night, and even slept poorly every day and night, and in the end he could not resist his inner thoughts. While the elders of the north and south were fighting each other, the captain of the guard finally handed over the letter to Yu Fei, who was just fifteen years old at the time.
At that time, Yu Fei had awakened the most critical soul in the patriarch's inheritance-the Burning Ghost Pipa - according to legend, after the Ming clan was exiled to the Hanhai Demon Spirit Continent, if the descendants of the patriarch could not awaken the soul, it would be equivalent to losing the right of the patriarch's inheritance. At that time, Yu Fei accidentally entered the forbidden land in the depths of the Ming Mountains at that time, so through some kind of accident, Yu Fei successfully awakened his soul and got the burning ghost pipa sealed in the depths of this forbidden land.
Yu Fei once also doubted his background, but the records of the former patriarch were sealed and guarded by the North Elders, so Yu Fei had no way to understand and prove his identity. Until one day, Yu Fei accidentally overheard the conversation between Elder North and his confidants, and finally learned his identity. After that, Yu Fei began to secretly gather her subordinates who were loyal to her grandfather and father, and began to secretly implement the plan to get rid of Elder Bei.
Taking advantage of the civil war between the elders of the north and the south, Yu Fei sent his former henchmen to various places to regather the displaced Ming people, and in doing so, he won the support of the Ming people who were scattered in other towns at the time. In the end, Yu Fei successfully persuaded the three leading generals at that time as a descendant of the patriarch and the banner, and in the end, Yu Fei and the North Elder turned their faces to a showdown, and after getting rid of the North Elder's henchmen and thwarting the forces of the North and South Elders in one fell swoop, the position of the patriarch returned to Yu Fei's hands, and she officially became the Holy Maiden of the Ming Clan.
It can be said that the hardships that Yu Fei endured when she was young are unimaginable to ordinary people, although Elder North did not kill her and taught her martial arts and knowledge, but other aspects can be described as harsh for Yu Fei. She has to do a lot of chores every day, eats less food and sleeps than others, and on weekdays, she is wantonly bullied by other children in the Elder North family, abusing her as a wild child without parents. Since Yu Fei can remember, she has no friends or received any love, and her childhood was a dark time without parents and companions.
However, it is precisely in such a predicament that Yu Fei's current resolute and brave character has been developed. When he was a teenager, from the age of fifteen when he officially knew his identity, Yu Fei not only had to endure the invasion of the dark years, but also pretended to be full of indifference and no ambition on the surface, but secretly contacted the subordinates loyal to the patriarch's clan and gradually brought them under his command. It can be said that Yu Fei, who has survived the difficult days in these difficult years, has experienced everything that others can hardly imagine.
Later, Yu Fei went to Xuancheng to participate in the selection of the Qi Royal Academy, and later met Feng Yuchong and their companions who are now struggling all the way to this day, and these companions made Yu Fei feel a little cordial for the first time. Because when communicating with these partners, these partners are not always a little afraid when they talk to her like the clansmen. In Yu Fei's twenty-six years of life, she felt the feeling of being cared for for the first time, and Feng Yuchong's behavior was something he should take for granted.
Yu Fei felt a very heartwarming feeling, and her eyes softened immediately. This orthodox descendant of the Ming clan, her dark childhood was gradually forgotten by her, and she began to gradually be full of hope for her future life. The lonely dark years she once experienced, but now Yu Fei feels warmth, perhaps, this is what she has lacked since she was a child, but she has always longed to have.
Now Yu Fei, although her heart is still mainly biased towards her own people, if her partners need her life, she will still not hesitate to go to the front line to stop anyone who dares to hurt her companions.
"Yu Chong, let me use the Absolute Sea Ice River again to block these tornado storms with Lingfeng Snow Ice Crystals. ”
