Legendary Ruler
Darkness Heart

"Can you deliver this letter ?" say the person sitting in the chair.

"Okay sir", the servant immediately took the letter from his master's hand and immediately escorted him to his destination.

"Huf..today was exhausting". Suddenly the man saw a space tear in front of his eyes. The man saw someone coming out of the space. Looked a handsome man with long white hair and wearing all red clothes.

"Who are you !?" He immediately made several spears made from his water element, as a defensive gesture in case the man in front of him had ill intentions towards him.

Han Chen just stared at the ruthless man before him. He was angry that the agreement he made with the man ended in disappointment. Highlight the angry looking eyes he showed Mu Feng.

Han Chen directly threw his Qi ball to destroy Mu Feng's worktable. Mu Feng immediately dodged when the man threw an attack at him.

DUARR !!

Mu Feng's workbench shattered into wood chips.

Mu Feng immediately threw the water spear he had made earlier. While Han Chen who saw the water spear was heading towards him, he simply brushed it off with a hand.

'How can my attack be repelled so easily ?' Mu Feng immediately made dozens of needles made from his water element. The needle pointed quickly towards Han Chen.

"Heh... You think this little trick of yours will work on me ?" Han Chen let out a flame from his hand which made the water needle from Mu Feng instantly evaporate.

"Actually who are you !? Why did you break straight into my residence !?" Mu Feng asked in a loud voice.

The eyes of Han Chen looked angry. In the instant Han Chen was already in front of Mu Feng, he instantly strangled his neck and slammed Mu Feng's body into the wall.

BAAMM !!

"Ekh.. let go.. let go of me !" Mu Feng continued to hold the man's hand, he tried to rid himself of the man's giggling in front of him.

"I asked you ! Didn't I tell you to look after those two women five years ago. Why did you let her marry someone else !" Han Chen's hand grew stronger.

As Mu Feng began to look into the eyes of the man before him, he only realized that the man in front of him was the one who had made a pact with him five years ago while he was still in the Nui Sect. "Are you the one who made the deal with me first ? But can you let me go first ?"

Han Chen released Mu Feng by throwing him onto a shelf. The shelf was destroyed from being hit by Mu Feng. "That's...!" Mu Feng started to wake up while holding his neck which was still aching.

"Tell me what reason you have ! If I am not satisfied with your answer, then I will kill you !" said Han Chen.

Mu Feng felt that his life this time was really on the edge of the horn. "First of all this started about two years ago. Back then they had finished their studies in the Nui Sect".

"Well, my sister hasn't seen mom and dad for a long time, I'm a miss" Ruo Ning said.

"Sister also can't wait to see mom and dad" said Ruo An.

When they were already at the door came the voice of the brand's parents calling out to them from within.

"Ruo An, Ruo Ning"

"Mom's happy that nothing happened to you". Their mother hugged her two children gently.

"Are you guys okay during your time in Nui Sect ?" ask their father.

"We're okay dad. During that time we learned many things" said Ruo An.

"Good, I'm glad to hear it" said the father.

"Oh yes mother has good news for the mother's eldest daughter" said the mother.

"What good news do you have for sister ?" asked Ruo Ning curiously.

"At that time my father and mother were in trouble because the harvest was not good last year. So we can't give the crops as annual flowers to the village chief. The village chief kept coming to our house to ask for annual flowers. We can't give it because our crops are bad. But one day there was a merchant who was quite wealthy offering us help, he said, and as a thank you request we intend to match you with the merchant's son who happens to have a son whose age is not much different from yours" said the mother.

The words heard earlier were like a lightning strike to Ruo An.

"Mother !! Brother already has a lover why mother even betrothed brother at will without the approval of even sister !" Ruo Ning was angry at what their parents had done.

"What ? What about this match ? I can't say undo this matchmaking to mother's savior !" said the mother.

"Then let me take the place of brother to marry the son of the merchant !" Although she looks reluctant but if for the sake of her brother Ruo Ning will do anything agr her brother is happy.

Seeing that Ruo An felt sad for having to allow his sister to replace his marriage. "Sister let only the sister get married".

"But brother what about Brother Chen ?" ask Ruo Ning.

"When I heard what the person I told to take care of the two of them said, I couldn't do anything for him, because it was a choice that Ruo An himself had to make" said Mu Feng.

Despite that, Han Chen was still angry that Ruo An would betray him and choose to marry someone else.

TEERR !!

The flower vase that was in the room broke into pieces due to Han Chen's deeds. Han Chen immediately tore through the empty space with his finger, he practiced entering the tear and disappeared to calm himself down.

"Well, I can't prevent that. Because it was Ruo An's own choice" Mu Feng sighed at the thought of the events that happened in the past year.

In a meadow with a big tree growing with its shade. Han Chen looked as if he was contemplating alone there. "Why would he leave me ? Did he forget the promise we made before ?"

The atmosphere there seemed to match Han Chen's mood. Although the sun shines brightly but its rays are covered by clouds. "Is the feeling he showed me first all fake ? I don't understand why he took such an action".

Han Chen started to recall the man he had helped back then. "I should have just let that guy get beat up, why did I help that time ?"

While in other places can be seen families who are gathering with their cherries. They eat the food from the restaurant they ordered.

"My wife are you sick ? why don't you eat the food on the table ?" Chu Lang looked worried about his wife's state who had looked glum as if he was thinking about something.

"Are you still thinking about that guy ?" ask Chu Lang.

"Ah is not. I was thinking whether the cuisine from the restaurant was delicious or not ?" replied Ruo An who was awakened from his daydream.

"If you just stare at him then you won't know if this food is delicious or not ?" said Chu Lang.

"Dad I want to add more. This food is very good" Chu Ling said.

"Oh does the father's son like this food. Then father will take it again" Chu Lang said.

Ruo An who saw that only smiled. He immediately picked up the chopsticks and tried the fish in front of him. When the fish meat was already in his mouth, Ruo An suddenly fell silent. 'Isn't this the fish soup Han Chen had made just yet'. Memories of that moment began to be recalled in Ruo An's head.

The sun has now set and been replaced by the moon. At night people start to rest. As usual Ruo An delivered drinks to her husband's office, because her husband was a trader so much work because he had to see reports from the branches of his shop.

"Darling this is your tea !" As Ruo An started to open the door, he was shocked by the situation before him.

PRANGS !

The drink he was under fell to the floor. "Han Chen what did you do to my husband ?" Ruo An looked with both eyes Han Chen was trying to kill her husband.

"You can't see what I'm doing !" Han Chen choked Chu Lang's neck while pointing his dagger towards Chu Lang's eyes.

"Please don't hurt my husband he's innocent of nothing !" Ruo An begged while crying under Han Chen's feet.

"Whenever you made a decision two years ago you didn't think about how I would feel when you saw you ! I fought desperately just for your sake ! I was willing to spend five years in the monster world just so I could protect you ! Everything I do is for you !" Han Chen looked at Ruo An with a look of hatred. His heart was now dark as black smoke filled the room.

"I'm sorry I was wrong. But please don't hurt my husband. He is innocent of any kind." said Ruo An tearfully.

"Heh... Now you call him a husband huh ? Heh.. how ironic !" Han Chen still did not release his hand from Chu Lang's neck.

While Ruo An was still crying while pleading under Han Chen's feet. Chu Lang who saw that also could not bear to see his wife pleading at the feet of the man who was strangling him.

"My wife let this man kill me, if what caused all this is me then I am ready to bear the consequences" Chu Lang said

"No, you're not wrong ! Please Han Chen if you want to kill someone just kill me but not my husband". Ruo An continued to plead with Han Chen for her husband to be released.

"My wife let me be the one he killed. I don't want you and our baby in your stomach to get hurt" Chu Lang said.

Han Chen who heard became increasingly uneasy. "Well, I will not kill your husband or you. But to appear before me again, if I see another sign in the future then I will be directly you. Take that !!" Han Chen immediately left and disappeared from there.

In a restaurant, three people look at a paper containing letters.

"Uncle, Aunt, Xiuxiu. Thank you for letting me stay for three days in your place. I'm really happy to feel the warmth of the family even if it's just for a little while. I must leave immediately because I am a wanderer. Sorry for not being able to say goodbye and just being able to leave this letter. Oh yeah, by the way I've left some recipes on the other paper I put there. I hope that with the recipe it can make your restaurant famous not only in the whole city but throughout this water country. Thanks again . Signed Han Chen".

"Dad did big brother Chen really go ?" ask Xiuxiu.

"You've read it yourself on the paper that Nak Chen left behind. We can only pray that he finds happiness in his journey" Yong Gi said.

On the other hand Han Chen was now riding a boat on the river while drinking wine.
