THE LEGEND OF THE SWORD GOD
V2CH 207 PATRIARCH OF THE DEMON CLAN
Lin Chong Wei looked at Heilong's eyes sharply as he said. “Because I lost this fight then I will keep my promise to you. I will tell you my true identity but I ask you to keep everything I have told you a secret. Can you promise me to keep my identity a secret to others because it concerns the safety of my daughter's life.”
Heilong nodded his head and said firmly. “Good, I promise to keep your true identity secret to anyone including my closest ones.”
“Alright, then I will tell you my true identity,” said Lin Chong Wei then he took a deep breath before telling a great many past soldiers of sad memories.
“Fiuh..”.
“I will start from my childhood first so that you can understand why I hid my identity.”
“My grandfather named Lin Dan was a magic hermit in the central continent, he lived in a cave near the white tiger wind mountain. That mountain was where the Byako Divine Beast lived. In that place, my grandfather obtained a bit of the high-level martial arts heritage of the Byako Divine Beast and passed it down to me. After I grew up my grandfather ordered me to go to the central continent and help secure the place because the central continent is the only place closest to the portal that leads to the underworld and not guarded by a Divine Beast. It didn't take long for me to obtain a high position in the Sky Empire Kingdom after I reached the central continent, due to my high level of cultivation and martial arts skills, in just six months I have occupied the position of war general.”
“So you used to be a war general before your cultivation was lost?” heilong asked cutting Lin Chong Wei's story in surprise.
Lin Chong Wei nodded his head. “True. I used to be the most respected war general in the central continent and it was thanks to that position that I was able to marry the princess of the Sky Empire Kingdom that was Princess Fu Mey. Emperor Fu Hao wanted me to continue being and dedicate myself to the Sky Empire Kingdom therefore he married his daughter to me.”
“ Then why did you get to be like this. Were you wounded in a great battle? And your circumstances are like this, wouldn't it be safer if you remained in the Sky Empire Kingdom or returned to the white tiger wind mountain where your grandfather was.” Heilong asked did not understand why Lin Chong Wei preferred to live in hiding.
“ What you said is true, indeed, we would be safe if we were in that place because Emperor Fu Hao or my grandfather would definitely protect me with all his might but I don't want to bring disaster to the people of both continents, either,” replied Lin Chong Wei who left a bit of a puzzle for Heilong.
“Why can that be? Try to say more clearly,” Heilong asked a little commanding.
“This is because the dark shadow demon race is eyeing Meylin, ” replied Lin Chong Wei coldly and containing deep anger in each of his words.
Li Ziqi and Heilong became startled when they heard the name of the dark shadow demon race called by Lin Chong Wei, then he asked Heilong to ask Lin Chong Wei what the devil really wanted from Lin Meylin.
“Ask him what the devil really wanted from Lin Meylin and what the devil's name was,” Li Ziqi ordered to Heilong.
“The devil's name is Ignis Fastlive. He is the Patriarch of the demon Clan who is a direct subordinate of the demon king Dark Etheroz whose body is currently being locked in an eternal ice seal created by the swordsman Xue Tian.” replied Lin Chong Wei.
Heilong became even more surprised and immediately asked another question. “Then what are they really looking for? weren't they just after the Sun's Rainbow Stone to free Dark Etheroz. Why are they targeting Lin Meylin now?”
Lin Chong Wei recalled the time of Lin Meylin's birth. “At the time of Meylin's birth, the sun that appeared in the sky of the Middle Continent had an unusual size and the shape of the sun was also a little strange. In the sun it was like a dragon was staying because my wife and I could see a very large dragon flying around the sun.”
Heilong frowned as this story of Lin Chong Wei sounded very strange. “What might the sun be the cause of the weirdness of the light energy that is in Meylin's body?”
Lin Chong Wei nodded his head.
“True. The sun continued to shine on my newborn daughter's body as if she wanted to give her light energy to my daughter. My wife and I then shared this incident with Emperor Fu Hao. And Emperor Fu Hao became very much when he learned that the light energy emanating from my daughter's body turned out to be very pure. Even in my daughter's body were more drops of light dragon blood than the drops of light dragon blood that were on Emperor Fu Tian's body who was the first to drink light dragon blood.”
“Then what is the relationship between the birth of your daughter and the Devil Nation? The Devil Nation can't use the power of light at all, so what are they after your daughter for?” heilong asked, Heilong suddenly thought of an answer. “Do they consider the power of light in your daughter's body as a threat and want to eliminate her in any way?”
Lin Chong Wei nodded his head and started to tell a story back. “You are absolutely right. I don't know how the Dark Demon King Etheroz got the news of my daughter's birth because her body is currently being sealed in eternal ice.”
“Then how can you be so sure that the attack was an order from Dark Etheroz?” sahut Heilong interrupted.
“When Ignis brought his demon army to attack the Sky Empire Kingdom. Emperor Fu Hao obtained very important information. This attack was a direct order from the Demon King Dark Etheroz. And the purpose of the attack was to kill my daughter because the power of light that my daughter possesses is very dangerous for the life of the Devil Nation. Especially the dark shadow demon race that hangs its life and power on the dark energy,” replied Lin Chong Wei.
Heilong continued to listen to Lin Chong Wei's story with great concentration because this was something information to uncover the true existence of Dark Etheroz.
“Then what happens next?” heilong continued asking because he was still very curious.
“When that big battle happened, the Central Continent was almost flat on the ground. And in that moment of urgency, my wife Fu Mey burned all the power of light within her to create a holy fortress known as the Ardent Fort. The Patriarch of the Demon Clan also did not want to lose, he and his entire demon army set up an attack formation called the Rain Tower Formation. An extremely tall pagoda emerged from that formation and continued to fire at the Ardent Fortress with gigantic dark arrows.”
