Although the dean of Yanwu Academy is Yan Yin and the vice-dean is the current monarch of the Fengyun Empire, the people of Yanyin are unknown. And as the emperor of the empire, Fengyun Chengsheng cannot come to Yanwu Academy to take charge. Therefore, the Yanwu Academy’s Everything fell on Ling Yunfeng, the acting dean.
As the acting dean of Yanwu College, Ling Yunfeng undoubtedly shoulders a great responsibility.
However, over the years, Yanwu College has developed well under his careful management.
Even to a certain extent, Yanwu Academy has faintly gained the strength to compete with Qingyue Mountain.
Qingyue Mountain is known as the holy land for cultivators in the world.
And Yanwu Academy has become the holy academy in the hearts of thousands of warriors.
This is the cradle of warriors and the place that all warriors long for.
Because here, there is an existence that represents the highest achievement on the path of a warrior.
Martial Saint. The realm that warriors all over the world dream of.
However, this is also the realm that Ling Yunfeng has been pursuing for many years.
It has been more than twenty years since he became the King of Martial Arts. But after all these years, he still has not reached the next level and achieved the level of Martial Saint.
For him, this is undoubtedly a sad thing.
Fortunately, there are many people like him in Yanwu Academy, such as Di Yi Xing, False Name, Feng Jiujian, Zhuang Shu and others.
On this day, Ling Yunfeng and Xu Xiaohua were walking on a path in Yanwu College, chatting about trivial matters.
Unlike Ling Yunfeng, Xu Xiaohua's strength has broken through from the realm of Spirit King to Spirit Saint after all these years. Currently, she is already a first-level Spirit Saint.
Her appearance remains the same. She is as beautiful as a flower in the morning dew. Even though she has been a mother for many years, her skin looks like that of a seventeen or eighteen year old girl.
Naturally, Ling Yunfeng loves Xu Xiaohua with all his heart.
However, Xu Xiaohua felt that the love Ling Yunfeng gave her was not so complete. There was a corner of his heart that she could never get into.
It seems that there is something hidden in that corner.
Although Ling Yunfeng never said it, Xu Xiaohua also guessed that it should be related to a relationship that Ling Yunfeng had experienced. But that relationship left him some pain, so he chose to seal it in Some corner of my heart.
"More than a month ago, Shangguan Jianhong sent his and Wu Meiqing's daughter to Yanwu Academy." Walking on the quiet path, Ling Yunfeng said slowly to Xu Xiaohua beside him, "Now a month has passed. Then Shangguan Mei My son seems to have adapted to the life at Yanwu Academy. However, she seems to be a bit withdrawn and doesn't quite integrate into the circle of Hai Qian and Yan Yunying."
Sighing softly, Xu Xiaohua said, "I heard that girl Ling Yi say. She said that Hai Qian and the others intended to let Shangguan Meier join them. But she was a little lonely and unwilling to accept their kindness. Every time Apart from listening to lessons from several teachers, the rest of the time is spent practicing quietly by herself. I think this may be related to the reason why she lost her mother when she was young."
"Maybe." Ling Yunfeng sighed, "Although I don't have a deep impression of Wu Meiqing, I know a little about her. It seems that such a unique and proud daughter of Zuiyinfang can become the master of Zuiyinfang. In the end, he was able to leave everything behind without hesitation and follow Shangguan Jianhong around for the sake of love. Shangguan Jianhong was a swordsman. A swordsman that many people couldn't understand. But Wu Meiqing became someone who could understand him. One. The combination of the two of them is not surprising to a certain extent."
"It's just a pity that Wu Meiqing died in miscarriage when she gave birth to Shangguan Meier." Xu Xiaohua said sadly, "For the sake of the child in her belly, she chose to give up her life. This kind of greatness is not something ordinary people can achieve. Made it happen.”
Nodding, Ling Yunfeng said, "Yes. Maybe this is maternal love!"
Speaking of this, Ling Yunfeng looked at Xu Xiaohua with tender eyes. He gently held his lover's jade hand with his only remaining arm. Then he said slowly, "But having said that, sometimes life is so fragile. Holy Spirit, you can." It is said that they are experts who surpass hundreds of millions of people. But at some point, their lives are just as vulnerable as ordinary people. From this incident, I finally understood a truth: human life is not as fragile as ordinary people. It won't change just because of how powerful you are."
With a slight hum, Xu Xiaohua whispered, "That's true. Life is always so fragile. Even a strong man with thousands of years of life may lose his life one day because of some trivial matter."
The two chatted for a while. Finally, Ling Yunfeng stopped. He looked at Xu Xiaohua and said, "In a few days, I want to go out."
"Go out." Looking at Ling Yunfeng, Xu Xiaohua asked doubtfully, "Where to go."
Looking towards the distant sky, Ling Yunfeng murmured in a low voice, "Her tomb."
who is she.
Xu Xiaohua didn't ask because she knew who she was.
That was a woman that Ling Yunfeng loved before her.
That woman, like her, is also a healer.
It's just that she died in the end.
Ling Yunfeng had never told anyone how he died. Even she, who had been his wife for many years, had never heard Ling Yunfeng talk about it.
What puzzles Xu Xiaohua is why Ling Yunfeng suddenly went to her tomb. It has been nearly thirty years since Ling Yunfeng became King Wu and returned to Southern College. In these years. At least in Xu Xiaohua's impression, Ling Yunfeng had never been to her tomb that he mentioned. Why did he propose to go there today?
"How long?" Xu Xiaohua asked aloud.
"I will borrow the Vulcan from Teacher Su and the others. It should take less than half a month." Ling Yunfeng said as he looked at Xu Xiaohua.
"Yeah" hummed softly. Xu Xiaohua remained silent.
Three days later, Ling Yunfeng took the opportunity when Su Xin came to Yanwu Academy to tell her about borrowing the Vulcan.
Su Xin agreed to Ling Yunfeng's request on behalf of Ye Qingchen and the others.
Vulcan also listened to Su Xin's words and happily agreed to help Ling Yunfeng.
So Ling Yunfeng set off and left Yanwu Academy under the load of the God of Fire.
Before he left, he temporarily handed over the work of the college to Yang Qiushi.
More than ten years have passed. Yang Qiushi has become a King of Martial Arts.
Because of Yan Yin's relationship and the influence of the Pirate King and Kuang Limuluo, the generals in charge of the army, Ling Yunfeng deliberately trained Yang Qiushi and became his right-hand man. It was also because Yang Qiushi already had the ability to help him handle affairs. That was why Ling Yunfeng left so peacefully.
But on the other side, Ling Yunfeng flew directly to the southern border on the God of Fire.
I flew over the former site of the Yanyun Mountains. I flew over Donghai City. I also flew over Southern College.
Finally, he and Vulcan came to Tingfeng Town.
"Here." Landing on Lingyunfeng's shoulder, Vulcan said, "I seem to have been to this place before. But it was many years ago."
Indeed, Vulcan has been to Tingfeng Town.
After it was taken care of by the God of Wind in the Gale Bay, it became Ye Qingchen's mount. Then, it accompanied Ye Qingchen and the team trained by Southern College to Tingfeng Town.
Ling Yunfeng did not make a sound. Instead, he walked slowly towards the south of Tingfeng Town.
Tingfeng Town is known as the Storm Bay.
Listen to the wind. What you listen to is the wind in the Gale Bay. It is also the wind that comes and goes without a trace in nature.
The environment of Tingfeng Town is very good. The people here are also very simple and kind.
In a slightly remote place in the south of Tingfeng Town, there is a stream. The stream is densely covered with gravel. The water in the stream is crystal clear. Sometimes you can see fish swimming among the gravel.
There is a forest upstream of the stream.
Taking Vulcan Ling Yunfeng into the woods.
After walking for about half a stick of incense, they came to the depths of the woods. Here, Vulcan saw a wooden house. A wooden house that had gone through countless winds and rains.
There are a lot of weeds in front of the house, but you can vaguely see the gravel paved in the grass. However, it seems that no one has cleaned it for many years. The accumulated leaves are rotting here, and there is a strong earthy smell.
"Once upon a time, she and I agreed to spend the rest of our lives here. We will stay with her till the end of our lives." I don't know if it was the Vulcan who said it or to himself. Ling Yunfeng whispered, "I dare not think about her these years because I Afraid. Afraid of the pain in my heart. Afraid that I will fall into the sadness of memories."
Although Vulcan was very familiar with Ling Yunfeng, he was still confused about the woman he was talking about.
"Who is that she you are talking about?" Vulcan asked aloud, "She is Xu Xiaohua, the mother of that girl Ling Yi."
Shaking his head, Ling Yunfeng said, "It's not Xiaohua."
Vulcan was still waiting to ask again, but saw Ling Yunfeng walking towards the wooden house.
The wooden door has decayed and the iron lock on the door is also rusty.
Breaking the iron lock, Ling Yunfeng led Vulcan into the wooden house.
However, there were no tables and chairs in the wooden house as Vulcan imagined. All there was was a tomb.
The tomb standing in the house. This is the first time the God of Fire has heard of it.
In the world, some people build tombs as luxurious as palaces, and some people build tombs as plain as possible. However, it seems that only the tomb in front of you can stand in a house.
There is a stone tablet standing on the tomb.
Stepping forward, Ling Yunfeng reached out and gently wiped away the dust on the stone tablet. Finally, Vulcan saw the writing on the stone tablet.
"My dear wife, Concubine Lu Zhi. Yun Fengli." The Vulcan read out.
When Yiyi taught Yan Yunxi and Yan Yunqing, the God of Fire was by their side. Therefore, it also had some grasp of human writing. Therefore, it could recognize the handwriting on the stone tablet.
Looking at Ling Yunfeng, Vulcan whispered, "This is Concubine Lu Zhi."
"A woman. A woman that I once loved and still love now." Ling Yunfeng replied, "Thirty years. It has been thirty years since she left me."
Caressing the writing on the stone tablet, Ling Yunfeng silently shed two lines of tears.
For the next three days, Ling Yunfeng stood in front of the stone tablet without leaving the place. The Vulcan stayed by his side quietly.
Although it wanted to know what the relationship was between Ling Yunfeng and Concubine Lu Zhi, it understood that it should not disturb Ling Yunfeng at this time.
Maybe. He is remembering; maybe. He is missing.
Recall his past. Miss his past.
The past with Concubine Lu Zhi. The past with Concubine Lu Zhi.
On this day, Ling Yunfeng finally moved.
Withdrawing his hand, Ling Yunfeng looked at Vulcan who was resting on his shoulder. He said, "Don't you want to know who she is? Then I'll tell you a story."
(Perhaps some people have already guessed my intention of writing Ling Yunfeng. There is no need to doubt it. I will indeed give Ling Yunfeng an ending in these chapters. In the ending part, every important character in this book will have his ending.
The ending. Either good or bad. I will give them a story with a beginning and an end.)
