"Good girl. I will tell you about that instrunt. The na of the instrunt is called the Soul Zither of Phoenix and Dragon. It can be used either as a simple musical instrunt or a weapon. Its strength lies with the soul attack. It will really suit you. Also, this instrunt can even rival the 'Heavenly Charming Zither' of the Celestial Maiden. " Su Feng explained proudly.
"The Soul Zither of Phoenix and Dragon! Nice na. Master, did it have a story behind its na?" Mie Lien asked curiously.
Little Xiuying and Shivarjuna also looked at him curiously.
"Hahaha! Everyone seems to be interested. Then, listen carefully. You are right. There is a story behind this Zither instrunt. " Su Feng laughed and replied.
"Old Su, stop beating around the bush. Co on. Quickly tell us the story." Shivarjuna demanded.
The other two also nodded their heads at him.
"Heeheehee! Alright, alright, I will tell you. It's a bitter love story of two youths. Long ago, before when humans didn't even know how to cultivate, four beasts' families ruled the whole cosmos. They were the Azure Dragon tribe, the White Tiger tribe, the Phoenix tribe, and the Black Tortoise tribe. " Su Feng started telling them a story of the past.
"But, the Azure Dragon tribe and the Phoenix tribe loathed each other very much. With ti their enmity reached a level to even start an all-out war between their tribes. Seeing that, the other two tribes (the White Tiger tribe and the Black Tortoise tribe) intervened and suggested having an inter-marriage between the Azure Dragon tribe and the Phoenix tribe." Then, Su Feng gulped down a mouthful of wine.
"Grandpa Su, what happened then?" Little Xiuying asked impatiently.
"Little Xiuying, if you promise to do sothing for , I will continue the story. Otherwise, …." Su Feng said with a sly smile.
"Alright, what is it?" Little Xiuying asked hastily.
"Can you play two songs for daily?" Su Feng asked.
"Alright, I agree. Grandpa Su, please continue the story." Little Xiuying pleaded.
"Hmmph! What a sly old fox!" Mie Lien snorted and murmured.
"Both the patriarchs of the Azure Dragon Tribe and the Phoenix tribe knew that if they had an all-out war then both of their tribes will suffer greatly. So, they agreed unwilling to the suggestion of the other two tribes. " Su Feng continued telling them the story.
"After a long negotiation, they decided that the 1st young master of Azure Clan, Tien Long, and the young miss, Feng Yan will engage imdiately. And officially they will be married after 5 years. Tien long was the proud and the strongest son of the dragon Patriarch. He was a genius in crafting weapons in those days. While Feng Yan was the only daughter of the Phoenix patriarch. She was a heavily pampered child. But, she was famous for her beauty at that ti. "
"During their engagent ceremony, they glared at each other with extre enmity. Such hatred against each other was bone-deep, carried down from generation to generation. So, it's understandable. In front of everyone, young miss Feng Yan sneakily kicked at the leg of Tien Long. After that, they started fighting openly using their weapons. It was interrupted quickly by their fathers. They sealed the two youths' power and continued the engagent ceremony."
"After the engagent ceremony, both of the patriarchs had announced to imprison the two youths together for their action, shaming their tribes' reputations in front of the other two tribes. At that ti, the Patriarch of the White Tiger tribe suggested a very interesting idea." Su Feng stopped and drank another mouthful of wine.
"Grand Su, what did he suggest?" Little Xiuying asked impatiently.
"He suggested that the two youths must live together in a house to know each other more before their marriage. Also, they have to send outside of their tribes to reduce their enmity. He suggested that they must live together in a mansion in his palace as his guest."
"The two patriarchs agreed to his suggestion and they were sent to the palace of the White Tiger. They were forced to eat and walk together during the whole dayti around the palace. After a few months later, they beca to understand a bit of each other. They still didn't talk to each other much. But, one day the youngest son of the White Tiger, Hu Ming happened to see the beautiful Feng Yan. He was completely enamored of her. Then, he started coming to their mansion and made friends with both of them. A love triangle started developing between them." Su Feng continued.
"After a year, the three of them beco so close that they spend almost all their ti together. On the beautiful night of the full moon festival of the White Tiger tribe, Hu Ming finally proposed to Feng Yan to beco his Dao partner. Feng Yan remained silent and just looked at him. But, Tien Long happened to see and hear all of them. He quickly ran toward his mansion feeling the unfamiliar emotions. "
Inside the mansion,
Tien Long started destroying everything nearby him inside the house.
"Why am I feeling so angry today? Ouch! My heart! " He vomited blood twice.
"Why is my heart hurting so much?" He said and rubbed his chest.
Creak! Creak! Creak!
The door opened and Feng Yan entered the house. She saw that all the things inside the house were totally broken and the rooms were in a complete ss.
"Tien Long, what happened?" Feng Yan asked.
Tien Long quickly walked toward her and pressed her suddenly on the wall forcefully. His both eyes were moist and red showing an extre desire. They made eye contact. He ca to his senses quickly after seeing her clear black eyes. Then, he release her, and apologized, "I am sorry"
After that, he turned back to leave.
Sweech! (Sound of wind)
Feng Yan appeared before him blocking his path. Then she pressed him to the wall forcefully.
"Tell , what is wrong with you today?" She asked aggressively.
"Umm! Sorry, I lost focus for a mont. It is sothing to do with my current cultivation technique. " He replied.
