The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 754: Fengxi’s Origins (Part 3)

Han Jing widened her eyes, but didn’t interrupt this time, quietly waiting for Su Yu to continue.

"It was when the old master passed by the Feng Family’s ancient tomb that he noticed something unusual inside. Coincidentally, he was an old acquaintance of General Feng. After telling him about it, General Feng went with him personally to the ancient tomb. From what seemed to be an entirely ordinary stone coffin, they discovered a small Crystal Coffin. The old master called the master to join him; at that time, the master was already the Sect Leader of Spirit Flame Sect. The two of them worked together to break the seal outside the Crystal Coffin, and inside they found the Beiming Pearl and a newborn child. They used the Beiming Pearl to awaken him. The old master felt destined to meet this child, so even though he had already secluded himself, he took the Little Junior Uncle as his disciple and personally taught him. However, to avoid drawing attention, outwardly, the Little Junior Uncle was said to be General Feng’s legitimate grandson, though in truth his lineage should be considered from the Feng Family’s ancestors. Because no one knows how many years the Feng Family’s ancient tomb has been there, even the family records do not have a complete account."

After Su Yu finished speaking, Han Jing still hadn’t reacted.

After a long pause, she asked, "So you’re saying that Fengxi, he might have already been alive for hundreds, even thousands of years, or perhaps even longer?"

Su Yu nodded: "Theoretically, that’s correct. Little Junior Uncle was exceptionally gifted, and he was a Water Element Special Ability User. However, he didn’t like conflicts, so very few people knew."

Han Jing said incredulously: "Then how did he die?"

Han Jing truly never imagined that Fengxi was a Special Ability User of the Water Element. But if that’s the case, the Water Ability itself has healing capabilities. Even if he expended a lot of his cultivation to save Han Litong, who was on the brink of death, it shouldn’t have cost him his life!

Su Yu sighed: "Fate plays tricks on us!"

Han Jing...

Su Yu poured a cup of wine and slowly said, "Little Junior Uncle was not someone who clung excessively. Upon realizing that Han Litong had no romantic feelings for him, he let go of that affection. But since he had loved her for many years, and given what Han Litong was going through at the time, he couldn’t bear to leave her unattended, so he stayed in Yanjing City to look after her. Originally, we thought he would eventually send Han Litong away and return to Beihan Palace. But for some reason, he brought Han Litong back to Beihan Palace. At the time, we assumed he reignited old feelings. Then Han Litong attempted suicide, and at that time, she was really beyond saving. Even the master had no way; the only means to save Han Litong was a life-for-life exchange. The master was against Little Junior Uncle sacrificing his life to save Han Litong because originally..."

Su Yu paused for a moment, then continued, "Originally, I wouldn’t have to bear the responsibility of leading the Spirit Flame Sect. The master’s initial intention was to pass the position of Sect Leader to Little Junior Uncle. But Little Junior Uncle, for the sake of Han Litong, created a Beihan Palace. Later, he let go of that affection and agreed with the master that he would succeed as Sect Leader of Spirit Flame Sect in the future. So at that time, the master strongly opposed his method of life-for-life exchange to save Han Litong, but he insisted on saving her, saying he owed her."

Sighing, Su Yu looked at Han Jing: "It was only when I reached Yanjing City, after eavesdropping on the secret conversation between Qin Shutong and you, that I understood why Little Junior Uncle said he owed Han Litong. Because between them, due to that unexpected twist of fate, there was you."
