The Legend of Zhu San
184: I am your daughter Shi Ling
The other four Knife King members gasped at the rapid death of their chief. Not one bit did they expect to encounter such a miserable reality.
Sadness and anger towards the death of their brother as a child, managed to overcome the sense of pain in the hearts of the four.
They immediately charged towards Zhu San with two knives clasped in each hand.
Bian Chi who was already very upset, darted ahead of the Husband. He slashed the sword very forcefully after moving quickly against the four of them.
It didn't take long for Bian Chi to finish off all four. The difference in strength between the two sides was too far away. The speed of Bian Chi was difficult for their eyes to follow.
In less than a minute, the four men died in terrible conditions. Their necks were nearly broken by Bian Chi's fast-moving sword slash.
Right after Bian Chi killed the fourth man, a battalion of infantry came to the place with a figure called by the soldiers as Commander Luan Hu.
“Their siege!” The commander in chief was about fifty years old with a huge tall body that immediately gave his orders.
Dozens of soldiers immediately surrounded Zhu San and Bian Chi, upon hearing Commander Luan Hu's orders.
A short while later, Emperor Shi Sung and the Empress walked out from within the residence. Just when Zhu San finished treating the Demon Shadow by removing the poison from his body.
“Thanks Young Swordsman, has helped and saved the lives of the three of us.”
Shadow Semu and his two comrades immediately knelt down to thank Zhu San. Zhu San immediately asked the two to stand up and asked them not to behave like that.
While Bian Chi was being stunned looking at Empress Qiang Ji who was also staring at him with various questions filling his mind.
“Ji’er .. The girl .. I look like you were twenty years ago. Who her? Could she be our lost daughter a dozen years ago?”
Emperor Shi Hung who was apparently also staring at Bian Chi, said in a trembling voice to his wife, Qiang Ji.
Empress Qiang Ji wanted to say, but Commander Luan Hu's booming voice sounded first.
“Capture Those two!” The orders of the Qing Imperial Warlord made Shadow Semu surprised. He immediately restrained the soldiers who were about to move.
“Wait, General Luan, the two of them have helped the three of us and killed five intruders who were about to harm His Majesty the Emperor.”
Commander Luan Hu was a little surprised, but He had a different idea from the Shadow Master.
“Who are the two of them? Do you know him? And what purpose could they have within the Palace complex in the middle of the night like this?”
The Semu Shadow fell silent at the words of General Luan Hu.
The two did not know that Emperor Shi Hung and the Empress, who had been in front of the door that was dark due to some lanterns, had been extinguished by the Five Blade Kings since then.
“Wait for General Luan Hu! I'll ask them both myself!”
All the soldiers kneeled down, following what General Luan Hu and the three Imperial guards had done, after learning of Emperor Shi Hung's whereabouts.
Only Zhu San and Bian Chi were still standing tall. Making General Luan Hu became very furious at the attitude of those who did not respect the Emperor.
“Young people, who are you two? And why come to the palace at midnight like this?” The Emperor's dignified voice made Zhu San immediately kneel down and salute.
After Bian Chi knelt down, Zhu San answered the Emperor's question. While Bian Chi's heart was pounding as he saw the Emperor and Empress approaching towards them.
“Your Majesty, please do not get too close to strangers. They were both very..” General Luan Hu fell silent when Emperor Shi Hung raised his hand.
“Relax General Luan, if they intend evil, perhaps they will not help the Demon Shadow and let him be killed by enemy poison.”
General Luan Hu was silent, but he remained wary of Zhu San and Bian Chi.
“Wake up Son, you are so beautiful. My husband said, Your face reminds me of my face twenty years ago, when I was your age. What are the names of your parents? And where did they come from?”
Empress Qiang Ji who felt there was an inner vibration upon seeing Bian Chi, immediately pulled Bian Chi's shoulder to stand up. He was slightly surprised when he saw the tears in Bian Chi's eyes.
A huge sense of happiness and haru in his heart, made Bian Chi sobbing and unable to speak a word. The Empress immediately hugged Bian Chi to calm him down.
It was then that He felt Bian Chi holding him firmly, sobbing in tears as he said that made all who heard his words shocked, except Zhu San.
“Mother ... I .. Shi Ling …. Your daughter!” Bian Chi's cry immediately burst back and hugged Empress Qiang Ji's body tightly.
The shocked Emperor Shi Hung was once two steps back. While General Luan Hu was silent for a moment before saying that made the Empress release her embrace with a heavy heart.
“Ampuni Servant of Her Majesty The Empress, this woman's words must be proved in advance the truth. What if they are enemy spies who are about to infiltrate.”
Zhu San looked in annoyance at General Luan Hu who said so.
But he realized that what the General did, as a form of loyalty and concern for the safety of his Father and Mother-in-law.
“Chi’er .. Show the birthmark behind your left shoulder as well as Grandma Mi Lin's Phoenix Sword to Her Majesty The Empress. Please Your Majesty the Empress make sure of that, so that this misunderstanding is not prolonged.”
Zhu San said with a fixed position of kneeling, He could see if the shocked faces of Empress Qiang Ji and Emperor Shi Hung upon hearing his words.
Holding back his tears, Bian Chi then took out the Phoenix sword from his Soul Ring. It made everyone shocked when a sword, suddenly appeared in Bian Chi's hands.
Seeing that, Empress Qiang Ji who had quite a high martial ability immediately shot back.
But a moment later his eyes bulged wide when he recognized the sword in Bian Chi's hand. He immediately asked Bian Chi and asked him to play the style that Teacher Mi Lin also taught him.
“That move ... The moves belong to Teacher Mi Lin, Hung Gege.. She is right our daughter Shi Ling!”.
Empress Qiang Ji said with a trembling voice. There was no longer any doubt in his heart about Bian Chi's identity. He immediately darted while shouting.
“Ling’er !… You really are my daughter Shi Ling!” Bian Chi who had just finished playing the moves requested by the Empress, immediately re-entered the Phoenix Sword and welcomed her Mother's embrace.
Emperor Shi Hung immediately came and hugged the two with tears in his eyes.
The two gave up their longing for the only princess who had been separated for a dozen years.
Zhu San held back the water that would flow from his eyes. His happiness was so great when he saw the Wife had met Father and Mother who had been known to have died.
