Legend of the Flute Swordsman

Shi Ming Defeated

"Do you understand how much I've suffered in my present position?" shi Ming asked as he stared at Yang Fei's two eyeballs sharply, then smiled incisively.

"You can't even answer my question." Shi Ming lowered his head.

"Shi Ming, I understand that everything you've been through must have been very difficult for you," said Yang Fei who was truly sympathetic to the man before him at this moment.

"Therefore, I will seize the throne now," Shi Ming said as he lifted Li Yi Cheng and Li Xing Mi into the sky among an unusually thick fog.

"Did you hear me, Your Majesty?" shi Ming asked as he strangled Li Yi Cheng's neck.

"Shi Ming, be careful behind you!" yang Fei cried. Shi Ming turned his head back and Yang Fei immediately saved Li Xing Mi and Li Yi Cheng as Shi Ming was caught off guard. Then, Yang Fei lowered the King and the Princess down.

"You're smart as well," praised Shi Ming with a faint smile.

"Shi Ming, if you really want to become the Crown Prince, you can find a solution together with His Majesty. Why did you have to attack the kingdom today?" ask Yang Fei.

"I have to do it! Let's fight to the death today!" shouts Shi Ming.

"You all just hide in a safe place first" Yang Fei said.

"Okay, General," they said. The Palace soldiers brought Li Yi Cheng and Li Xing Mi to hide in the secret room inside the Xiang Ping Hall. Meanwhile, Yang Fei began to fight with Shi Ming in front of the Xiang Ping Hall. First of all, Yang Fei was unable to retaliate against the sword attack from Shi Ming who was in a craze. Yang Fei could only continue dodging the attack by twisting the Hei Tian Flute until he and Shi Ming were at the top of the Xiang Ping Hall tile.

"Are you afraid of me?" shi Ming asked as he laughed in satisfaction.

"What am I afraid of?" yang Fei did not take it. He began to blow his flute and play some of the notes he had trained.

"Hei Tian Flute? How can you have it? You can even use that weapon?" shi Ming asked in a panicked tone.

Yang Fei did not ponder the row of questions thrown by Shi Ming. He continued to play his flute gently but certainly the flute was able to make his opponent unable to hear his voice so loud in the ear.

"Yang Fei, you're cheating!" shi Ming shouted before he fell down from the tile as it was no longer strong listening to the tones played by Yang Fei earlier. Following which, Yang Fei descended to the place where Shi Ming had fallen and pointed his flute at Shi Ming's neck.

"You won, just kill me," Shi Ming said softly.

"Shi Ming, I don't want to kill you. Be aware," Yang Fei said. Suddenly, Shi Ming's consciousness returned just like that and the fog that covered the entire Palace began to slowly dissipate.

"Yang Fei, what happened?" ask Shi Ming.

"That's..." Yang Fei was suddenly confused as to what to say by him this time. Meanwhile, Shi Ming took note of the circumstances around him.

"Why do I feel like my back hurts so much? Where is everyone?" shi Ming asked in confusion.

"Capture royal advisor Shi Ming!" shouted one of the Palace soldiers while tying Shi Ming's hands together.

"General, thank you for saving His Majesty, the Princess, and all of us. We're really sorry for interrupting your journey" said the soldier, bowing his head.

"No problem, I'm happy to be able to help the Western kingdom," Yang Fei said with a smile. The soldier nodded and took Shi Ming away to the Palace prison.

...****************...

"Your Majesty, the royal adviser Shi Ming has sinned. What is your decision, Your Majesty?" ask Yang Fei.

"He was guilty, but he was also a victim of his own obsession. I will forgive him," Li Yi Cheng replied.

"But why, Dad?" chirps Li Xing Mi curious.

"Xing Mi, in this world everyone has ever done wrong. Shi Ming has been loyal to us all along. Even if he's wrong this time, I won't kill him. As his punishment, he will be repatriated back to his village" Li Yi Cheng explained.

"But he almost killed you, Dad!" shouted Li Xing Mi did not accept.

"That's it. We should forget about the things that have happened in the past" Li Yi Cheng said as he rubbed the back of his beloved daughter.

"Yang Fei, I'm old. My confidants are no longer by my side. I want to leave my daughter to you. Do you mind? I want you to look after Xing Mi for me," Li Yi Cheng said with a pleading expression.

"Your Majesty, I don't mind. Merely, I hope that the Princess also has no objection to my travel route," Yang Fei said as she looked towards Li Xing Mi.

"No, I don't mind at all." Li Xing Mi shook her head while smiling faintly.

"Well, the Princess can come with me. But what about you, Your Majesty?" ask Yang Fei.

"I'm fine. I have to guard this kingdom and do the duty I should as a King" Li Yi Cheng replied with a smile.

"good. Well then, I'll see you next time, Your Majesty." Yang Fei lowered his head and paid his respects.

"See you later" said Li Yi Cheng.

"Dad, I'm gonna miss you. I will definitely stop by here again," Li Xing Mi said as she saluted.

"Dad knows that. Go," Li Yi Cheng said as he tried to hold back his tears from dripping from his two eyes.

"Dad, you have to take good care of yourself." Li Xing Mi cried, then she hugged Li Yi Cheng for a while before she left with Yang Fei.

...****************...

The incident that just happened turned out to have been planned by someone very mysterious. He wears an iron mask to cover his entire face and wears all-black clothing.

"Master, we've trapped Yang Fei, already" said one of his men.

"Hmm, good job" said the mysterious man.
