The sword is broken, love is cut off

  I was stunned for a moment, and for a while, I couldn't understand what he was saying at all! What do you mean, looking like me when I was young? What do you mean, the princess of the Jade Dragon tribe didn't die, but was sent out of the palace by Long Nuyue? I've seen the newborn babies. They were my older sister's two children. But Yu Feng... His face turned deathly pale.

  Kill him because he has a bad mother! His mother doesn't want him, and he lives alone in this world, what's the point? It's better to end his life with one knife, and it will save him from being scolded for not having a loving mother!

  Long Nu Ya said, Mother! Now that I think about it, that one night was like he had planned everything out. He took me to the Yu Long Fei's estate and told me that Yu Long Fei had passed away. And then...and then I naturally became the guardian of Yu Feng as the eldest son! He asked me to name him, but he already had the child's name tag prepared on his waist. He said that children of the Yu Long clan are called Yu Feng! He said, looking at us two, can't you think of a way to be together?

  Mom, mom, eat cake!

  Yu Feng is going to sleep tonight, but Mother is still sweeping the tower!

  Is it mine? Is it my dragon son? The dragon son who stayed in my belly for ten months? Exactly, the dragon son who protected me for ten months of pregnancy? My tears fell on his face all at once, and he was covered in wounds, all inflicted by me! Yet he still said, Mother, eat sweet pastries!

  "Mother! Think of a way quickly! If you don't think of a way, Little Dragon will be gone forever!" Danju cried out loudly.

  My wake-up call. Holding the child, I trembled all over, "What to do with smallpox!"

  "Find the Emperor! The Emperor has imperial physicians! Find Prince Wang! The five-colored beads in the Feilong Tower can cure all diseases! Just get one bead! Just get one bead! Little Dragon will be fine!" Danju exclaimed loudly and anxiously.

  Yu's cloak was blown open, and Yu Feng was wrapped in it on his back. With red eyes, he said hoarsely, "No matter what, I will save Yu Feng! Tan Hua, take my broken sword to the Emperor and tell him to send an imperial physician. If not, when Yu Feng is gone, I'll follow with this sword!"

  Soft chrysanthemum lowered her head in response, hastily took out the dragon thunder, and held it in her palm. I didn't look at her again, and with a swift movement, I flew towards the Flying Dragon Tower!

  In the darkness, Yufeng's body trembled violently, and my heart couldn't help but tremble along with it. I'm an unqualified mother, my own child is right beside me, yet I never noticed! Me! Tears, uncontrollably fell down. Feeling like I'm about to collapse!

  "Big Brother! Long Yunya! Come out!" I roared into the darkness.

  No sound! I kicked open the door of Feilong Tower with a loud crash, stood up straight and looked around for the Five-Colored Pearl everywhere. Where is it? The Five-Colored Pearl, where is it?! "Long Yunya! Come out!" I roared loudly. My voice echoed in the darkness, but there was no response from him!

  "Big brother! I'm begging you! Hurry up and come out! Save my child! Big brother!" By this point, I was crying uncontrollably. How did I bring him up?! For the past half year, with what kind of mood did I hate him, now with what kind of mood do I hate myself!

  "Mother! Mother!" Yu Feng whispered. My heart ached. I said in a hoarse voice, "Child! My child! Mother won't let you die! You've protected mother countless times, even if mother loses her life, she'll protect you too!" At this point, my tears couldn't be stopped, and I loudly shouted, "Long Yun Jia! Come out! Aren't you the Guardian God of the Tower? Why can't I see you now? What tower are you protecting?"

  Yu Feng started to convulse uncontrollably. I couldn't bear it anymore, so I opened my cloak and carefully held him in my arms, as if holding a fragile porcelain vase! His small face was flushed with redness. He furrowed his brow, pouted his small mouth, and shook his head in discomfort.

  "Yu Feng!" I tightly hugged him, afraid that he would be taken away. I rushed up the stairs and cried out loudly, "Shixiong! Come out! Forgive me, forgive me, I beg of you! Shixiong! Don't do this at this time!"

  When I reached the ninth floor, the door of White Dragon Hall creaked open and Long Yun stood at the entrance, staring coldly at me. As soon as I saw him, it was like seeing a glimmer of hope, and I exclaimed loudly and urgently, "Big Brother! So you're here!"

  His eyes were calm and peaceful, with a hint of reprimand, "It's you! This is sacred ground, you shouldn't have brought the child here!"

  In an instant, my heart was as if placed in an ice cellar! "Big Brother! Please! I beg of you to save my child!"

  His face was expressionless. "Oh? It's Tian Hua! Take her out! Don't desecrate the sacred place!" After saying that, he was about to close the door of the White Dragon Hall.

  I kicked open the door and shouted loudly, "Long Yunya! What are you doing?! This is your nephew! How can you just stand by and do nothing?!"

  He stared at me faintly and said in a low voice, "I just said that he has smallpox! You should go find a doctor! Not me!"

  "It's been three days! He's almost gone! The doctor is useless! Don't you have a five-colored bead? Just one! I only need one! Brother! Please give me one five-colored bead! I only need one, just one!" I cried out loud. Now, I'm no longer the invincible general who dominated the battlefield, I'm just a mother!

  "He slowly said, 'How can the Five-Colored Pearl leave the tower? I am the Guardian God of the Tower, how can I privately take out the treasure from the tower for you? You'd better go! Don't bother me,' and then he slammed the door shut with a bang!"

  I shouted loudly, wanting to rush into the White Dragon Hall, but I was still one step too late. The vermilion red door had already closed in front of us! And blocked my hope!

  He turned around, put Yu Feng back on his back and knocked on the door with force. He shouted loudly, "Long Yun Jia, open the door! Where did my enthusiastic brother go? Fei Long Tower, go to your Fei Long Tower! Has Fei Long Tower ground your heart into dust? You've forgotten, you've forgotten everything! How detestable! Now you're so heartless and ruthless! Come out and take a look! This child is still so small! He's my son, my own flesh and blood!" Slowly kneeling down, covering his face with both hands, he said in a hoarse voice, "You know? If I lost this child, I wouldn't want to live either! I finally found him after all the trouble!"

  I knelt at the entrance of White Dragon Hall for a whole night, knocking on the vermilion door, but there was still no response from inside. My tears had almost dried up! I slowly stood up, and a resolute smile spread across my lips. I whispered, "Since giving out a five-colored bead has put Shixiong in such a difficult position, then Hanmei only has one path to take!" I carefully held onto Yufeng, looking at his helpless and weak little face.

  "When you were just born, your mother hated you so much, but you always protected her. You accompanied her through half a year of war without any complaints, Yufeng! My child. After she had a difficult childbirth, you were taken away by someone. But then your father sent you back to me. I've been treating you poorly all along, and every time I saw you, I hated you. Yet you never complained, and even called me to eat sweet pastries! Now you're afflicted with this illness! Your mother doesn't have the ability to save you, and your aunt isn't by our side, so I can only follow you..."

  I turned back, gazing coldly at the vermilion gate of White Dragon Hall. I couldn't help but shed tears. "So Flying Dragon Tower can make a person become this cold and detached! Even if I begged you like this, you wouldn't soften your heart! From that year on, when we let go of each other's hands in the forest, our futures were forever lost! But I don't regret it. If not for this, I wouldn't have had Jade Wind! Such a considerate and gentle Jade Wind! Until next life, farewell!"

  Having said that, she closed her eyes and split into two. Yu Feng, Mother will accompany you on your way!

  The wind was blowing gently in my ear. I slightly opened my eyes, but saw Yu Feng frowning and not speaking. It wasn't until half a moment later that I realized we were both suspended in mid-air! Outside our bodies, there was a very faint transparent green light surrounding us tightly!

  It's Yu Feng! My heart aches, and I tightly hug him. My Yu Feng is just like when I was pregnant before, tightly, tightly protecting me!

  Yu's loud cry, I supported his soft and slightly curly hair, originally thought that this hair was inherited from Long Nuyue, but unexpectedly, this hair turned out to be just like mine!

  When the first ray of sunlight rose, the two of us landed steadily on the ground. I hugged Yu Feng and knelt down, shouting loudly, "Fei Long Tower! If you are indeed a divine tower, if you truly have a divine dragon, come and save my Yu Feng! He is the rightful son of the Dragon Emperor, he's still so young! How can you just watch him die?!

  Yu Feng's breathing gradually became lighter and shallower, until I couldn't feel his breath at all! "Damn it! Damn you, Golden Dragon God! What are you good for?! You can't even protect your own people!" I cursed loudly.

  I fell to the ground, wailing loudly. But before my eyes appeared a pair of snowy white cloud shoes. I slowly lifted my head, and Long Yunya stood in the morning sun, bathed in its radiance, looking like a celestial being. His eyes shone with confusion and heartache, without saying a word, he took out a string of colorful beads from his bosom and handed them to me.

  I burst out laughing and was about to reach out when he pulled his hand back again. In a hoarse voice, he said, "Can't be missing one! Use the thing on your neck to trade!"

  There's a string of pearls on my neck! Hurry up and take it off with both hands, "Give you give you! I have a lot more! Do you want them? I'll bring them all for you!"

  He furrowed his brow and said in a low voice, "Take out your night pearl to replace the night pearl in the five-colored pearl!" After speaking, he took one of them and held it in the palm of his hand.

  The five-colored beads are extremely beautiful. They are strung together with night pearls, coral beads, jade beads, gold beads, and crystal beads. When placed together, they shine brightly, truly a heavenly treasure! I took down the night pearl and handed it to Long Yunya. He slowly squatted down, and in the morning light, I saw that his skin was almost translucent, and his lip color was extremely pale. His entire person seemed to be shrouded in white clouds. Slowly shrinking the night pearl, I fed it into Yu Feng's lips. Yu Feng's lips moved slightly, and finally swallowed it! The flush on Yu Feng's face slowly faded away. Her breathing also gradually became stronger.

  Our school, hugged Yu Feng tightly, whispered urgently, "Yu Feng!"

  Yu Feng remained silent, only quietly sleeping. He got up, bowed his head, and deeply bowed to the ground, saying in a low voice, "Thank you, brother, for saving my life!"

  His lips slowly turned red, and the confusion in his eyes deepened. Half a moment later, he whispered softly, "Why does my heart ache when I see you like this?" His hand was pressed against his chest, frowning and trying to bear the pain.

  She raised her head in surprise and stood up straight, and we two were deeply gazing at each other. For a moment, neither of us spoke!

  Time passes in silence.

  Yu Feng's unstable movement startled me awake, and I hoarsely said, "I should go back! Shixiong!" After that, he hastily ran away, leaving behind his endless sighs.

  Dān jú hái méi yǒu huí lái! Wǒ de xīn lǐ wēi wēi fā lěng. Ná chū lóng léi lái, shuō chū nà bān jué jué de huà, tā què réng rán bù lǐ bù zhuó! Zì gǔ dì wáng duō wú qíng, yuán lái, jìng shì zhēn de me? Céng jīng nà bān de shēn qíng rè ài, xiàn zài, jìng rán yī diǎn dōu bù liú le me?

  If he loves me, why doesn't he come to see me, or even just take a look at Yufeng? If he doesn't love me, then why did he send Yufeng to my side? Even now that things have reached this point, he could still take him away! He completely can! He can! But he didn't!

  I know that day he was furious! Angry with me, hated me, annoyed me, didn't want to see me!

  Suddenly I feel a pang of sadness in my heart, and at this moment, Yufeng needs to eat something good. Tugging at the corner of his lips, I involuntarily feel a sourness in my heart.

  Just as I was about to get up, I saw Danju holding the broken Dragon Thunder in her hand, slowly walking to my side, softly and weakly saying, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty! I took out the Dragon Thunder and cried for a night at the gate of the Taiji Temple. The Emperor didn't even look at it, and according to your words, I asked the palace guard to pass on the message, but the Emperor just said one sentence, 'Let her be!' I really had no choice, so I could only come back first!"

  Follow me! He said, follow me! Then I went with Yufeng, and he followed me too!

  Gritting my teeth, I thought resentfully, and the corners of my lips trembled involuntarily. Is this man still the one who would make fish soup for me, who would roast suckling pig for me? Just half a year, only half a year! And he's become like this!

  Put me and Yufeng in what place!

  "Your Ladyship, don't be sad. Since ancient times, the ladies in the cold palace have never been able to see the Emperor again! Your Ladyship not only saw him, but also made the Emperor linger for a long time, which is even more than the most favored concubine can compare with. It seems that the Emperor loves and hates you at the same time!" Dan Ju comforted in a low voice.

  Gently stroking Yu Feng's hair, he slept very soundly. I whispered, "Forget it! Dan Ju! Don't say anything else!" He didn't want a child, but I did!

  Thinking of Shixiong, thinking of Guiyue, I have already owed too much emotional debt in this life. Too many emotional burdens weigh on me, making it hard for me to breathe. If I were with him, we would surely burn each other out. And I still have a Yu Feng to take care of!

  He said follow me, so I don't think of him again!

  Dān jú chén mò bàn xiǎng cái xiǎo shēng de dào, "Yù fēng tā!"

  Translation:

  The pale chrysanthemum silently waited for half a moment before softly saying, “Yu Feng!”

  I shook my head and said calmly, "It's nothing!"

  Her face lit up with joy, and she hastily said, "The White Dragon King is actually willing to take out the Five-Colored Pearl for Young Master! It's really great!"

  I smiled calmly, "Yes! Brother Shifu, he really is not easy!" Thinking of when I was about to leave, he said that sentence, why, seeing you like this, my heart hurts! I furrowed my brow and fell silent.

  He, did he remember? How much did he remember?

  Yu Feng opened his eyes and softly called out, "Mother!"

  Her heart softened, she held him in her arms, "Yu Feng! You're awake!"

  "Mother! Has Yufeng just slept for a long time? Sorry, Mother!"

  I smiled faintly and slowly stroked his hair, saying in a low voice, "Yufeng just slept for a long time. So Yufeng, are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

  He opened his mouth wide, staring at me blankly, and made a gurgling sound. The rumbling noise from his little belly made him blush, and he looked at me cautiously.

  I smiled faintly, "So Jade Wind was this hungry! What does Jade Wind want to eat?"

  Yu Feng said in a soft and urgent tone, "Just eating some porridge would be fine for Yu Feng! He's still young and doesn't eat much!" As he shook his hands, the corners of his lips slowly rose due to my rare gentle smile.

  "Fool! This is the time to grow taller, isn't it? As a dragon breed of the Dragon Emperor, whatever Yufeng wants to eat, as long as the imperial kitchen can make it, Yufeng just needs to order it!" I laughed loudly and gently scratched his nose.

  He gazed at me carefully, "But Mother, that is for the Dragon Emperor and several dragon sons, as well as the many imperial consorts to eat. Yu Feng, how can you be content with just being by Mother's side every day, even if it means eating plain congee?"

  My heart was filled with acid, I wrapped the sword in my arms and covered it with a cloak, shouting loudly, "Who cares who eats! As long as Jade Wind likes it, we'll go eat!" With one swift motion, I grabbed the broken sword, pushed open the door, and leaped into the air, heading towards the imperial dining hall!

  The imperial concubine in the Cold Palace cannot leave the Cold Palace, and it's not said to someone like me! For someone like me, it's easy to sneak out of the Imperial Palace, let alone a small gate of the Cold Palace!

  At this time, only a small lamp was left in the imperial kitchen, and all the palace people on duty had gone to sleep. Yufeng whispered, "Mother! No one is here!"

  A faint smile spread across her lips, and I whispered softly, "Then let's get someone out!" Just as we were speaking, a tall figure emerged from the imperial kitchen.

  "Miss! Young Master Wang!" he said in a low voice.

  Looking at Guī Yuè's appearance, my heart couldn't help but ache, and I said in a low voice, "Will Guī Yuè be able to cook!"

  Guī Yuè shook his head, "In this life, Guī Yuè will only wield the Ghost Blade, not a kitchen knife!" Good! That means he won't either!

  "What's going on in the Imperial Kitchen, Kizuki?"

  "It's just a servant. Miss, are you here to eat? At this hour, there's only some leftover rice. We won't be cooking again until tomorrow!" He said in a hoarse voice, curling up the corner of his lips.

  I laughed, "How can my child eat what they left over? Where is the chef? Let him get up and make it for us overnight!"

  He raised an eyebrow and after a moment, a knowing smile appeared. He led me to the west wing of the imperial kitchen residence. With a pointing hand, he indicated the location of the main kitchen.

  I pushed open the door and entered the kitchen silently. The broken sword was placed on his neck! However, he remained completely unaware, snoring away.

  He raised an eyebrow. After waiting for a second, two seconds, he finally discovered that this chef was not ordinary! He grabbed him with one hand and said coldly, "Hey! Are you awake?"

  He let out a sigh and exclaimed, "Actually, the things I make are also delicious! Why doesn't anyone want to eat them?! It's all because of you, this woman! You've ruined my lifelong career! Ugh!" He belched.

  I slapped him in the face with a loud shout, "Hey! You're not waking up even when carried like this, what's wrong with you! Ghost Month! Drag him directly to the kitchen!"

  The ninth month responded to the sound, and with one move, he was lifted up, and our group entered the imperial kitchen like this! His head was pressed into the clear water, and he let out a loud cry of surprise, "Who?! Which killer is it?!"

  At this time, I finally saw clearly that although he was wearing a coarse garment, he looked exceptionally delicate and even had a dimple! He stared at him coldly with his arms around his chest.

  He stared blankly for a moment, then his eyes lit up as he looked at me, "Ahhh! Midnight assassin! Sword-wielding beauty! Could it be that I've encountered another assassin?! Ahhh! Such a beautiful assassin! And she's brought a cute and invincible child who's even more adorable than me! Ahhh! Assassin sister! What do you want with me?! Is there anything I can help you with? Just speak up, and as long as I can do it, I'll do it for you, even if it means jumping into boiling water or walking through fire! You know, being an assassin these days is really tough!"

  As soon as I saw him start chattering nonstop, my face turned dark, and the broken sword was pressed against his neck. "Shut up! No need for you to risk your life! Cook something for me! As long as it's suitable for this kid to eat!"

  His eyes were filled with emotion, "Unmarried mother, for the sake of her child, sneaking into the imperial palace at night, holding a sword to the chef's neck, just so that her child could have one good meal! What is this thing called love in the world? It makes people willing to die for each other! Medicine! Medicine! Where are you now?" He exclaimed with his arms outstretched and his head thrown back.

  I saw Kiyotsugu's trembling lip corners, withdrew the sword in his hand and shouted loudly, "Hey! Are you going to do it or not!"

  He nodded happily, "I do! You remind me of the one I love most! Although she has an annoying little sister!" He yelled at Gui Yue, "Hurry up and start a fire!"

  Guī Yuè responded with a sound, and only then did he start a fire on the stove. He was very talkative, but his hands and feet were quick, cooking didn't seem like cooking at all, it seemed more like juggling! Watching him made one's eyes spin, after half a catty of time, a plate of roasted suckling pig was placed in front of me.

  "Try it! This is my brother's invention, roasted suckling pig! Originally, we used small pigs that weighed over ten kilograms, but later on, Ye Chenghuan's wife messed things up, so we had to use newborn piglets that hadn't even had a sip of milk yet. Who would have thought that they turned out to be incredibly delicious? They just melt in your mouth! Kids will definitely love it, try some!" He said with a sincere smile.

  "Are you Autumn Mo Yan's younger brother?"

  "He shouted out loud, 'Do you know my brother? Do you know?! Ah! I'm the one who's loved by everyone, cars stop for me, and even coffins open their lids for me, Autumn Morsel! However, I don't accept admiration from beauties right now!' He flipped his hair, revealing a hint of foolishness, 'I already have my most beloved woman!'"

  "Oh!" I responded uninterested. Turned around and was about to leave, but he stopped me, loudly and anxiously saying, "How can you cross the river and dismantle the bridge! Why don't you ask me, who this handsome and excellent me loves?"

  "You're so handsome and excellent, who do you love?" I asked casually.

  "Yaoyao! Ye Yaoyao! You know, right? Haha! I bet you've never even heard of her name!" He clasped his hands together, his eyes bubbling with fantasy, and exclaimed loudly, "Yaoyao! My heart belongs to you, heaven and earth are my witnesses! The sun and moon are my proof! Oh oh! Yaoyao! You are my most beloved!"

  "It's a good thing she didn't hear that, or you'd have gotten a good scolding!" I shook my head and couldn't help but hit him.

  "What did you say! What did you just say! How do you know she uses a whip! How do you know she has a violent temper! How do you know!"

  Kui Yue's lips moved slightly, and he said reluctantly, "If you're referring to Yaoyao Miss, then the one in front of us is her younger sister!"

  He stood there in stunned silence, speechless.

  What a silly boy, how can he win Second Sister's favor? Sighing softly, just about to leave, Yu Feng suddenly said, "Mother! It smells so good!"

  That silly boy suddenly jumped up and tightly hugged my leg, loudly saying "Little auntie!"

  Ruthlessly lifting my leg, I kicked him away with one foot. I let out a cold hum and rushed off with the plate! Autumn Morsel wailed and cried, shouting for Little Auntie not to go so fast!

  Things went in an uncontrollable direction. On the second day, Leng Xiangyuan became lively, and Mo Qiuyu came over with Gui Yue and two others carrying food boxes, calling out to each other affectionately.

  He spends his days sitting down and pulling me over to talk about Second Sister. For example, he says that when Second Sister was little, she looked very cute.

  With that one sentence, he was satisfied and went on to say how great his own vision was! How beautiful his second sister was! How brave she was, and how much trouble Cheng Huan had caused him!

  This person, if not a bit eccentric, is probably someone who values relationships. Yufeng really likes it when he comes, and as soon as he arrives, he's called "Uncle" nonstop, because his arrival represents the arrival of delicious food!

  He also doesn't know where he heard about my mother and son's situation, but he actually came to our aid, almost every night!

  Kui Yue accompanied him, and his thin body gradually recovered to its previous state. Now when I see Kui Yue, I still feel a heart-wrenching sadness.

  "Little auntie, little auntie! Today I spoke up for you, haha! No need to thank me too much!" Qiu Mo exclaimed.

  "Aunt's husband! What have you done again!" Yufeng jumped to his side. He put down the red lacquer carved food box, and with a loud voice said, "Today the Dragon Emperor has taken in a new concubine! I've given him something to eat; inside is croton seed! Let's see how he spends his wedding night!"

  My eyes twitched. I didn't want to reason with him! But he hugged Yu Feng and walked in front of me, laughing viciously! "And, I put red flower powder in the food of all his concubines! If they eat like this for a long time, their bodies will be cold, no one can get pregnant with a dragon son! Even if they do get pregnant, I'll make him abort it! Am I not very vicious?" He said, and then burst out laughing.

  "Don't do this again!" I said in a low voice. I know the bitterness of losing children, his harem has so many concubines, he once said that even if one is favored for a night, it would take three months to be favored again. The women in the harem are lonely and pitiful, they can't expect the king's favor every night, they can only rely on their children to alleviate some of their boredom, how could I deprive them of this right!

  He stared at me blankly and said in a low voice, "What? You don't want to? I thought you'd be thrilled!"

  "When Long'er is not by my side, I hate everyone in this world. Now that Long'er is by my side, it's all right! As long as my Yu Feng is by my side!" He took over Yu Feng with both hands, and his face shone with excitement.

  "Hug my neck tightly, whispering urgently, 'Mother! Mother's body smells so good! Yufeng loves mother so much! Loves her so much!"

  A faint smile spread across his lips, I invited him in, he took out the things from the food box and we had a drink together.

  "Alas! In this world, how can there be a woman more elegant and refreshing than your second sister? If I were to marry her in this life, even if it meant dying immediately, I would be willing!" He furrowed his brow, muttering softly.

  I suppressed a smile, but the lovely doll-like face couldn't match this sorrowful look! Guī Yuè couldn't help but leak out, "Isn't it tiring to be like this every day?"

  It's pointless to be infatuated to such an extent, talking about loving her every day, what's the use! Can't he just let go? It's as if he's been possessed by Liang Zhu, making life unbearable.

  Rubbing his sore forehead, Yu Feng suddenly burst out laughing. He glared at Yu Feng hatefully, "What's so funny?!"

  Yu Feng couldn't stop his loud laughter, "No! No! I just think Uncle is so funny! Haha!" At this moment, he was adorable, with a round face that had gradually gained some weight from eating well, looking incredibly cute!

  He smiled, and everyone in the house followed suit, just like spring was about to arrive! My child, it seems he has already forgotten how I treated him badly last time, my heart is warm with emotion, and this silly "second brother-in-law" doesn't seem so annoying anymore!

  Yun Ya still dodges me whenever he sees me, and once even bumped into me, then turned around and ran away!

  I frowned, his appearance always gave me a kind of ominous feeling. Although so, I didn't know that the ominous feeling would become true so quickly!

  On this day, the weather was particularly sultry and dark, as if it were going to rain but couldn't. I coaxed Yufeng to sleep, such weather, such unease, was surprisingly similar to that day on Huoyan Island. Shaking my head, trying hard to shake off the ominous premonition.

  The weather was sweltering and hot. As night fell, it got even hotter, so I held onto Yufeng and went to the courtyard to cool off. Danju was peeling grapes that Autumn Mors had sent over when suddenly a loud rumbling sound came from the direction of Feilong Tower! The ground shook violently, and I almost couldn't stand up straight! Yufeng whispered, "Mother, what's going on? Mother!"

  I hastily lifted my head, only to see the Fei Long Tower, which had stood for thousands of years without toppling, now rumbling loudly. I was shocked and about to act when a bolt of lightning suddenly struck from the sky, splitting the entire tower in two! Covering Yu Feng's ears, the sound of thunder rumbled inside, and before long, the entire Fei Long Tower collapsed with a loud crash! The Fei Long Tower had toppled!
