Chapter 29
WUDANG BATTLEFIELD
Chutian was so bittered as she wrapped her hands round her dying mother
"Mother, why did you have to do this" She cried
"Chu... don't..cry.., stay strong... My husband is gone.. I won't be able to live without him" she said gasping for breath
"Mother, you can't just leave, how will I cope without you? Father has died and you also going to leave us? WHY!!
"Make sure to stay safe, I'll... always be... with you... always".... With that she gave up the ghost
"NOOOOOOO" Chutian gave a loud yell as she started wailing
"Ouch! It's really painful to loose one parent in a day, I really feel for you" Sulin mocked
"You monster! I'll make sure I destroy you" Chutian yelled as she rise and rushed towards her before she could reach her a warrior took an arrow and shoot her leg as she gave a painful scream and fall, immediately the warriors all surrounded her with their swords
"Don't kill her yet, she's the only one that can lead me to the remaining traitors, she's more useful, tied her and bring her back to the kingdom, also no one should be spare in this kingdom, kill them all" she ordered as she together with Tianjin mount their horses and head back to Chen Du's kingdom after Chutian had been tied and dragged along.
The warriors carried out Sulin's order and destroy the entire kingdom before returning to Chen Du's kingdom
IN THE FOREST
Chulin and the rest continue their journey in a dead silence, "Brother, I'm feeling uneasy Chutian may be in danger" he said
"I know and I'm also worried but this journey is the last assignment of father and no matter what, we can't disappoint him, we can only keep praying for her to be safe"
"Chutian is a vibrant fighter, I'm sure she'll be able to save herself" Leyuan said
"How come you know much about her?" Chulin asked
"Like I said, the only encounter that I had with her was during the bloody war in Chen Du's kingdom when she came looking for you, to cut it short she's the one that I asked to escape Lee Wuxian and Neoyou"
"So, you're the one she talks about? Thanks for saving my uncle and nephew" Chulin said
"Your uncle?"
"Yeah, I'm Cheng Di"
"Cheng Di? You mean the little crown prince of the late Royal family?" Leyuan asked and Chulin nodded
"But we were told that there's no survivor in the family? How come you're still alive?"
"Well, it's a long story, but I owe my life to Xee family"
"Hmm, please let's stop all the discussion till another time, we're about to reach out destination" Sun Min said and they all continue their journey in silence
WUDANG KINGDOM
Everywhere was littered with blood and dead bodies of both old, young and even an infant was not spared
The once crowdy and peaceful kingdom she become a grave yard with river of blood flowing
Somewhere in the underground where Lee Wuxian was, he was pacing up and down worriedly
"Your highness, you haven't sit for a second since the morning, please sit and rest a little" Xifan said
"How will I be at ease knowing that people are in danger because of me? How will I be at peace? Everything that happens I because of me?" He lamented
"Father?" Neoyou called weakly as he slowly opened his eyes as the duo rushed to him and Xifan help him to sit
"Thank God you're awake son"
"Father, where are we? I don't really remember what happened"
"Don't worry about that for now, when we leave here I'll explain to you"
Neoyou look around but the place is not familiar to him
"Father, where's this place? What really happened?"
"We're hidden here, this is Wudang underground"
"Underground? Why are we hidden?"
"Your mother had discovered our location, and right now a war is going on, so leader Xee liang asked us to stay here till everything is settled"
" Mother?" He called as the realization dawn on him as he quickly moved backward from his father
"Father I'm sorry, I didn't meant to kill you, I don't know what happened to me" he cried
"I know, it's your mother that's trying to compel you to kill me, if not for the timely intervention of Xee Liang"
"Mother is really a beast, he even want to turn me against you,I really hate her" he cried
"it's okay"
"Your highness, let me go out and check how things turn out" Xifan said
"It's dangerous outside, please be careful" Lee Wuxian said
"I will your highness" he said and climbed out of the underground
He was shocked to see a lot of dead bodies in the palace and outside the palace, he quickly climbed down to inform Lee Wuxian
"Your highness, it's bad" he said breathing heavily
"What happened? Explain"
"Your highness, the kingdom was besieged, there are dead bodies everywhere in the palace, I've to rushed down here to inform you"
"What about Leader Xee Liang? What about the Queen?
"Your highness, I don't know, I'll go back and check"
"Let's go together"Lee Wuxian said and they all came out of the underground
They started checking the dead bodies to see who's still breathing but they were sad to see that they were all dead, they keep searching the dead bodies till they reach the battle field, they were terrified to see the Xee Liang and his wife co**se at the distance as they rushed towards them
Lee Wuxian check their pulse and shook his head sadly as a tear escape his eyes, Neoyou was so sad that he cried and refuse to be console
"Why will they have to die? Why? The whole kingdom was killed mercilessly, why must they suffer for what they knew nothing about?" He cried
"Your highness, they were all dead and there's no one that survived" Xifan reported
"Let's clear the co**se and bury them"
"Yes your highness"
"Sulin, you've really gone too far this time around, I will never forgive you for this and you must repay this debt with your life" Lee Wuxian uttered sadly
