The Swordsman of Heaven
Chapter 4: Zhao Feng's confinement

Chapters 4.

Zhao Feng slowly walked towards his father's main building, to find out what was waiting for him. But whatever it was, Zhao Feng would never know what fate would await him.

Geck! Geck!

"Come in, Zhao Feng."

Just as Zhao Feng had just knocked on the door of the meeting room, there was a voice reply from the father to tell him to enter.

The door was opened by Zhao Feng, and he was shocked when he saw the first eldest, Shin Mo, the father of Shin Hye who was sitting talking with his father.

"Zhao Fengs! Sit here!"

Seeing his son who had come, Zhao Yun in a happy mood immediately told Zhao Feng to sit next to him.

Obviously Zhao Feng immediately obeyed the words of his father, even though there was a bad thought in his head. However, he quickly dismissed those thoughts, because not necessarily the father would have the same nature as his son.

"Haha... Zhao Feng's! Be happy because the first elder will train you himself for the competition that will come two years from now!"

Zhao Yun said in an audible voice filled with pleasure, which made Zhao Feng make a light smile after seeing how happy the father was.

"Right, Brother Yun, I alone will train him to be able to cultivate again!"

Shin Mo responded in a voice filled with pleasure as well, with a laugh that looked very wide, indicating that he was also happy that he himself would train Zhao Feng.

But what was unknown to Zhao Yun and Zhao Feng, it turned out that Elder Shin Mo was launching his plan. And after seeing that his plan had gone perfectly, made himself feel very happy. Now was only time to separate himself from Zhao Feng's fate, but it was soon time that would hand Zhao Feng's destiny into his clutches for all eternity.

...----------------...

"Please wait here for a moment, disciple Zhao Feng. I'll take a special cultivation Book for you."

After successfully bringing Zhao Feng into his clutches, Shin Mo finally started the beginning of his plan, a plan that would drastically change the future of Zhao Feng.

Surely Zhao Feng did not know about what Elder Shin Mo was planning, he was currently feeling very happy, because in the end he will be able to cultivate again like all the disciples in the Thousand Star Sect.

Currently he was alone in a cave that looked very beautiful, because Elder Shin Mo was out with a reason to find him a Cultivation Book.

When viewed by him, it appears that the inside of this cave is full of ice crystals that look so very beautiful. And Zhao Feng started to suspect, that he was currently in the Immortal Crystal Cave, a Cave filled with an extremely pure Qi aura.

When Zhao Feng who was being amazed by the condition of the Cave around him that was so very beautiful, suddenly from outside the Cave there were quite a lot of footsteps. A sign that more than one person is approaching.

Hearing that there were footsteps approaching him, Zhao Feng made a wide smile as he imagined that the footsteps were from Elder Shin Mo who had come with a cultivation Book for him.

Yet the beautiful hope of Zhao Feng was shattered into pieces upon seeing the figure from the sound of those footsteps. Zhao Feng's face turned sour when he saw Shin Hye coming here with her friends.

"Hey, trash! How's it going? Have you enjoyed happy moments for the last time in your life?!"

Shin Hye said with a cynical smile, which made Zhao Feng even more confused with all these situations. Shin Hye's? Why would he be here? Wasn't this Cave forbidden by Elder Shin Mo that anyone shouldn't enter because this is where he would be trained? And now, there was even Shin Hye and her friends who were now standing in front of her.

"Shin Hye's? What are you guys doing here?"

The flustered Zhao Feng finally asked Shin Hye as well as his friends, but was only reciprocated by their laughter which sounded very happy.

"What the fuck?!"

Zhao Feng was again struck by great confusion when he saw Shin Hye and her friends who were laughing, but had not yet had time to be aware of the real situation, suddenly he was thrown into the corner of the cave very hard.

Just as Zhao Feng's body hit the wall of the Cave filled with extremely sharp ice crystals, even the collision of Zhao Feng's body was able to break the entire ice crystal he hit.

Fresh blood instantly filled Zhao Fengs back which had now been fatally injured. While Shin Hye and his friends were just laughing at him, Zhao Feng tried to get back up, but all of a sudden, he was, he was surprised by a voice he was very familiar with and also the one he had been waiting for.

"Basic rubbish! How dare you make Zhao Yuan beat my son in such a way!"

There was the sound of a middle-aged man sounding extremely cold, a sign that every single word he uttered was filled with hatred. After seeing someone who had done something like this to him, which suddenly made Zhao Feng shocked and in disbelief, if he had entered into a very deadly trap.

Now he would live with more suffering than his life in the Thousand Star Sect, which would change his destiny even worse. Or not...?

...---------------...

Brakk!

There was the sound of a very loud bang, which was able to make the table that was kicked down instantly shattered into pieces. Seeming to be a middle-aged man who was now emitting a killing aura that was so intense, the middle-aged man was none other than Zhao Feng's adoptive father, Elder Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun was currently feeling extremely angry when he heard a truth that his son was about to live with Elder Shin Mo. How not?! All this time Elder Shin Mo did not say exactly where his son would be trained. And now, that anger grew even more upon hearing that his son would be trained in the Mist forest, a dense forest that existed on the outskirts of the Sect.

Moreover, near the forest was a Cave that was famous for its extremely strong Qi pressure, even the Elders would not dare to step foot there, because the Qi pressure inside the cave would destroy a person's entire Meridian, which could have caused death, or the lightest of which was disability.

"Brother Zhao Yun! Think carefully about what you are doing right now!"

There was the voice of someone who was so extremely annoyed when he saw the anger of Elder Zhao Yun, a third Elder named Shin Mo Chi, the younger brother of the first Elder.

Hearing the words of the other Elders, angering Elder Zhao Yun grew even more. He felt so stupid that he already knew that Zhao Feng could not cultivate, instead he himself happily handed Zhao Feng over to Elder Shin Mo for the purpose of cultivating. So stupid!

"Calm down, Brother. Zhao Feng will be fine, after all the one who will train him is Elder Shin Mo himself, everything will definitely be fine."

In the heart of the Great Elder, he felt very uneasy saying such things to Elder Zhao Yun. He already knew if Continued Shin Mo hated Zhao Feng so much, but this was all he could do, if Elder Zhao Yun continuously burned with anger, just to be sure, then it could have been a very undesirable thing within the Thousand Star Sect.

"All right! But if Elder Shin Mo does something detrimental to my son, then I will not hesitate to beat him even if you will all oppose me!"

With anger still overflowing, Zhao Yun posed a threat to the parties who seemed to be planning something against his son. Zhao Yun did not care, whoever would hurt his son, then he would destroy the person, no matter if the person was a god though.

...----------------...

"Gohhh!"

In the cave that looks very beautiful with various colorful crystals, there appears a young man who was falling down with a body full of bruises.

That young man was Zhao Feng, the adopted son of one of the Thousand Star Sect Elders, Zhao Yun. With a burning spirit in order for him to be able to cultivate, had brought him to this place.

Zhao Feng was very unexpected, if one of the Elders hated him so much. Moreover, that Elder was one of the friends of his father, making Zhao Feng even more feel extremely naive.

"Hey, Trash! Accept food!"

As Zhao Feng was thinking about how miserable his fate was, there came the sound of someone sourced not far from him.

Teetering, Zhao Feng slowly turned his head towards the source of the voice, and found a young man in the typical clothes of the Thousand Star Sect standing not far from him with a sinister face.

The young man was none other than one of the disciples of Elder Shin Mo, who was tasked with always watching over him so as not to escape. But what the young man did not know, was that Zhao Feng was carrying out a plan that he had never thought of.

Surely it would be a miracle to see someone who dared to go inside, because the Qi pressure inside the cave was huge. However, there was an exception to this, using an Artifact that only the first Elder, Shin Mo, had.

Getting the Artifact was certainly not easy for Shin Mo, because the Artifact was only owned by the previous Great Elder, Shao Lan Yang. After the death of the Great Elder, taking advantage of the lax oversight from the other elders of the Thousand Star Sect, Elder Shin Mo finally managed to steal some of the rare Artifacts.

Utilizing the Artifacts, Shin Mo finally had the idea to lock Zhao Feng up in the Immortal Crystal Cave, as the other Elders of the Thousand Star Sect would not have the courage to get close, especially going into the cave.

"Uhugh!"

While trying to get up on his feet, Zhao Feng suddenly coughed up blood and fell back down. Seeing that something was wrong with Zhao Feng's behavior before him, the young man panicked a little.

He quickly rushed over to Zhao Feng's body which was on the ground, trying to check Zhao Feng's condition, because Elder Shin Mo had given him an order that Zhao Feng should not die.

Just thinking about it had already scared the young man to death, how not? Everyone had known how cruel Elder Shin Mo was in punishing his students, and the young man would never be tempted to feel one of those punishments.

Therefore, upon realizing Zhao Feng's condition, the young man was a little frightened. But what the young man did not realize was that he had fallen into the trap of Zhao Feng, which would change the fate of this world forever.

...----------------...

The second elder, Zhao Yun. There was a middle-aged man sitting in front of the porch of his house with a little girl who had a very beautiful face.

Although still a child, the girl had already shown signs of her beauty that exceeded even the goddesses of Nirvana. Even the girl had already received several fiance offers from the genius youths of the other Sects, but all of them were rejected by her.

The girl is also known for her cheerful nature, which makes everyone smile when they see her. With her jovial nature as well as her kind heart, it made the girl highly respected by the Elders as well as all the disciples of the Thousand Star Sect.

But not for today, it appeared that the little girl was crying in the arms of the father, a sight that was very rare to see for the disciples of the Thousand Star Sect.

"Dad! Why did Big Brother Feng leave without saying anything to me?!"

The girl said sobbing, as if she was experiencing a very heavy sadness. The little girl was none other than Zhao Lin, the younger brother of Zhao Yuan as well as Zhao Feng.

Zhao Lin felt very sad when she found out that the elder sister was doing the exercises without her knowledge, at least she wanted to spend some time with Zhao Feng before she went to do the exercises.

"I'm sorry dad, Zhao Lin. Father was in such a hurry to have Zhao Feng go practice."

Zhao Yun also felt how sad the princess was, knowing that Zhao Lin was harboring feelings for Zhao Feng, more than just the feelings of a little sister to her brother.

"Dad... When will Feng Gege return?"

In a voice filled with sadness, Zhao Lin asked the father, hoping that his father would say that Zhao Feng would return soon to him.

Hearing the question from the princess, made the heart of Zhao Yun like a very sharp sliced blade. Not only did Zhao Feng have to suffer during his training, he had now also broken the heart of his beloved daughter.

"Don't worry, Zhao Lin. Your brother will soon be back, with greater strength, he will come back and will always protect you for the rest of his life."

Zhao Yun said with pride, he is currently forced to lie to his daughter. Though, he would never know when Zhao Feng would return, let alone the results of his training. Although he wanted to forcefully cancel the training from Zhao Feng, it would only be in vain. Because all the Elders of the Thousand Star Sect had agreed to Zhao Feng's training together with Elder Shin Mo.

"Really, Dad?! Then I will also train so as not to become a burden for Big Brother Feng!"

Hearing the reply from the father, made the cheer from Zhao Lin return. With the determination to become strong, Zhao Lin had been determined to train hard in order to be able to level up together with Zhao Feng.

Zhao Yun nodded his head slowly while smiling gently at his daughter. And with lightning fast, Zhao Lin suddenly just ran away from his father's residence.

At the sight of how great the spirit was within his daughter, Zhao Yun could only sigh deeply.

"I'm sorry dad, Zhao Lin. But rest assured, that Zhao Feng will definitely come back to you..."

Zhao Yun sat down as he recalled the incident that had just happened during the meeting of the Elders of the Thousand Star Sect. He could only rely on the fate of his son who was so very sad. But there was one thing that made Zhao Yun not lose his hope, that fate would not always be unfair to someone in this world.
