The Fallen Consort

Yi Feng was starting to get worried. Yi Ling was taking a long while.

She knows that Yi Ling wouldn't take that long. Something must have happened!

She got up real quick and dash to where Yi Ling said she was going.

By the time she got there. Her heart leaped. Her daughter was gone. She found the hair tie that Yi Ling was using but she weren't there at all. If she isn't there, where did she go? Or, did someone took her? All this question was making her heart feel uneasy. She can't believe it. All these years of hiding and protecting her was for naught. She went back to the restaurant and found nothing. She asked the waiters of the restaurant, the stall vendors and the people walking along the streets. No one sighted a young girl or boy as she described.

Yi Feng was starting to get crazy. My daughter, Please be alright. She prayed in her heart.

She went back home hoping maybe she already went home. Nothing. Yi Ling was no where to be found. Yi Feng's knees went weak, she collapsed to the ground.

As she cried, she yelled. "Brother Wen! Our daughter is gone, please. She's the only family I've got. Protect our daughter. Keep her from harm. Please.. Pleaseeeee!!" Yi Feng was devastated. If only she could trade her life for her daughter's, she would. She would rather die than her daughter being harmed. As she prayed in her heart, A falling star passed by in the dark and starless night.

Just outside of town. The middle-aged man was inside the carriage along with Yi Ling. Unfortunately, Yi Ling was unconscious. He was happy. Even though he was a 2nd Rank of Qi Condensation, It was still on the lowest ranks. He didn't thought it'd be easy this time. The reason why he to ordered a bunch of people 5 years ago, it was because he was a coward. He didn't think he was able to fight all the way through the village. Don't underestimate the normal people. Even though they are weaker compared to Qi Cultivators, In desperate time; they can be stronger than most. This time, it was easy. Luck was on his side, he thought.

Looking back at Yi Ling, sleeping soundlessly. He couldn't help but gulped. Even though she was dressed ruggedly, she was beautiful. She was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. Not even the most beautiful courtesan in the Flower Brothel Pavilion can compare.

He couldn't help himself. He felt that his body was drawn to her. As his hands was about to touch her thɨġh, the carriage stopped. The horse neighed and the driver screamed.

The middle-aged man got alerted. Someone is attacking my carriage!

Who has the audacity to attack the Young master of the General's Manor?!

He was enraged!
