The Legend of Futian

Ping’an said again.

Sky River Great Elder nodded.
Then Ye Futian, who was cultivating, heard his voice.
Soon, he came over and saw Xu Ping’an.

Ye Futian was a little puzzled and didn’t know who Xu Ping’an was.

“This is Ping’an—the grandchild of my eldest disciple, who was also your older Uncle-Master.
He was the premier sword emperor of Tianhe Realm, who perished in that battle.
Ping’an’s parents also had their cultivation destroyed, and Ping’an took care of them by herself,” said the Sky River Great Elder.

This short remark made a great impression on Ye Futian.
It rendered him speechless for a moment.
The Sky River Great Elder, in a few words, had told a thrilling but tragic story.

And some, because of that battle, and because of the things related to his teacher.

“Your master was there too, and visited Ping’an and her parents, and asked Ping’an to give you a message,” Sky River Great Elder continued.
Ye Futian’s heart was troubled again.
Had Master arrived as well?

Ye Futian looked at Xu Ping’an and saw that she was bowing slightly to him, saying, “Uncle-Master.”

In terms of seniority, Xu Ping’an had to address Ye Futian as “Uncle-Master.”

“Mmm,” Ye Futian replied.
The Master had visited them must be because he had great been affection for them, or else he would not risk so much.
Back then, Master’s senior brother, the premier sword emperor of Tianhe Realm, gave his life because of the thing involving the master.

The Master must have felt guilty.

“Grand Uncle-Master asked me to tell Uncle-Master that from now on, you do not know him when you meet.
Concentrate on cultivating, and don’t forget the words he gave you, no matter when, where, or who you are facing,” Xu Ping’an said.

Ye Futian’s expression suddenly changed.
Those words gave him a very ominous feeling.
It was as if he was telling giving his last testimony and will.

As if he noticed Ye Futian’s expression, Sky River Great Elder asked Ye Futian, “What did he say?”

“As heaven always moves strongly, the gentleman ought always improve himself.” Ye Futian looked at the Grandmaster.
His face was a little gloomy.

“And then?” Sky River Great Elder asked.

“Gentleman does not stand on an unstable wall,” Ye Futian replied.
“The Master was telling me to completely sever the relationship with him—no matter when, where, or who I am facing.
I am to deny that I knew him.”

When he heard Ye Futian’s words, Sky River Great Elder was silent.
Naturally, he understood as well.

Ye Futian told him that Feixue could now concentrate on cultivating, so he had nothing to worry about?

After all, he still came back.

“Grandmaster, what happened in the past, and what did my master intend to do?” Ye Futian asked.

“Some things are hard to resolve, and some things must be faced sooner or later,” Sky River Great Elder looked at Ye Futian, but those murky eyes seemed unusually firm at the moment.
“So, I respect your master’s choice.”

Ye Futian’s face was slightly pale.
“You go back with Ping’an and take her parents here.”

“Very well,” Ye Futian nodded and looked at Xu Ping’an.
“Let’s go,” he said.

“Yes,” Xu Ping’an nodded.
She left with Ye Futian to pick up Xu Haoran and his wife.

At the old house, Ye Futian and Xu Ping’an were coming over.

“Dad, Mom,” Xu Ping’an called out, but no one responded.
Sensing that something was out of sorts, Ye Futian’s body flickered, and he headed toward the inside of the house.

Xu Ping’an seemed to feel it too.
Her face changed as her figure flickered to enter the old house.
Ye Futian and Xu Ping’an’s footsteps suddenly stopped, and they could not move another step.

Xu Ping’an’s body was shaking as were her legs.
Looking at the two figures leaning quietly there, endless tears continued sliding down her cheeks.

After what seemed to be a long time, she walked over next to the old man and knelt down, saying, “Father and Mother, but why?”

In an instant, tears fell like rain.

Ye Futian also walked up quietly and looked at the elderly couple; they were his senior brother and sister-in-law, but they were so old.
Suddenly he felt a pain in his heart.

What had the master gone through? And what was he carrying in his heart?

Xu Ping’an was lying on top of the old couple, but Ye Futian saw a letter next to them.
He crouched down.
Xu Ping’an, at this moment, was so fragile, like a powerless girl.

“They left peacefully and left you a letter,” Ye Futian whispered.
They did not suffer but had left peacefully.

Xu Ping’an was sobbing.
She picked up the letter, and her tears were falling on it.

“Ping’an, don’t be sad.
If it weren’t because we wanted to spend more time with you, we would have left already, but we have been reluctant to let you go.
You will understand the meaning of your Grand Uncle-Master after you are at the mountain.
Although we know it was selfish of us, we hope that you will stay with the Grandmaster so that at least you will be protected when you are in danger, not like when you were with us and we couldn’t protect you.”

There are many other things in the letter, but they were all words of regret.
As Xu Ping’an was reading it, she couldn’t stop crying.
She had never complained about her destiny.
Never.

“Ping’an, don’t forget the words of your parents, even if you are in the muddy world, still shine your light through it.
We can’t see your future, and our only wish is for you to be safe, always.” the letter.
The letter was soaked with tears that had blurred the handwriting.

Ye Futian felt bitterness in his heart.
Master went far away for Feixue’s sake.
However, after Feixue’s matter was resolved, the master followed him.
Now he knew that Master was bearing such a heavy weight.
That constant concern aside, he would accompany him to the Upper Realm.

Same with Ping’an’s parents!
