Chapter 1

The night was dark, in the forest it was raining, as heavy thunder strikes flashed down after a few seconds. The big bumpy man was running like hell into the mug, trying the best to expand a few seconds more for his life. But another thunder strike hit down, showing a figure in white flying in an exceeding speed toward his target.

-Arhhhh, pleases White dragon, please spare me, please let me live! The old man shakily cried out, as he turned to the back viewing the white shadow was approaching more and more closer.

But the figure in white never reply, he held out his famous dragon sworn as in a fast moment reaching toward the old man, putting the white silver sword straight to the front, the moment it was beside the old man neck line. With a slight easy force, he twisted the sworn, which cut deeply into the throat of the goal.

The big man dropped down onto the muddy ground, he was dead in second as his eye still opened widely due to the sudden cut. A quick sound and the sword was put back in its cover. The killer in white turned around and took the last glanced at his latest victim. That was another job he had done another victim he had killed another enemy he just made. But overall it was just another meaningless day to his careless life.

========================

Then it was a bright normal busy day at the market, by noon it even packed with even more people.

-Xiao jie, Xiao Jie! A frustrated little girl was running from stores to stores, her eyes searching around furiously, trying to look for her little mistress, who seem disappeared into the big crown, just a few minutes before.

“Xiao Jie” She continued to call out, while started to move deeper in the market’s street. Finally she gave out a big sigh, after spotted her young mistress, was standing at one of the craft store, looking so attached to it.

-Aiyah, Xiao Jie, why have you go so fast, I thought I lost you! The little maids ran quickly to her mistress, put out the complained while trying to catch back her breath.

-Hey! Hong Er, look at this hand made money pocket, is it cute or what! The little mistress tried out, while excitingly held up a little moneybag from the craft shelf.

-Aiyah, San Xiao Jie! Hong Er normal habit beside her little mistress was frowning from a little things to the big problems that her little hyperactive mistress always get into…We have a lot of that stuffs at home, you don’t need to buy it. Hong Er gave out the rejection, at the same time watched her little mistress changing expression.

-Hong Er! She groaned, as the little maid, quickly nodded in respect. What are we coming here for? She looked down on her stubborn maid in a hard gazed.

-We came out here so you can shop for your wedding day, before you leave the house to your husband place. Hong Er gave out the reply slowly.

-Good! The mistress cried back with satisfaction…So I can buy whatever I want, no comment from you, hao bac hao? (co duoc khong?)

“Shir”(Da.) Hong Er unwillingly answered back, as her mistress happily made her pay for the moneybag, while she walked off again to explore new things. Hong Er quickly dug out a few pennies in her purse, enough to pay for the thing, and quickly dashed over to chase up with her mistress.

-Wei Wei bieo mei (Bieu muoi Vy Vy)! A voice called out from behind, as both Wei Wei and Hong Er looked back to meet the familiar family member.

-Qi Long bieo ge! (Bieu ca Ky Long) Wei Wei gave out a bright smile and started to wave her hand aiming at her cousin. Who was the nephew of her mother.

Qi Long quickly rushed over to his younger cousin, the one he been followed and adored seen they were just a little kids.

-Wei Wei bieo mei! Where are you going? Qi Long excitingly asked out, watching her with devoted.

As normal, Hong Er little maid always ready to jump in first, but this time, she was stopped just in time by her mistress. Wei Wei quickly gave the stare for Hong Er to back out.

-Bieo ge, I’m going shopping. Mother said once I wedded to the Cheung, I may not have a lot of time to go out, so she tell me to get all that I need, before the wedding day! Wei Wei excitingly exclaimed her purpose, as Qi Long fell down inside thinking of her wedding day, where she will be wedded to Cheung famous Magistrate family.

While he was in his puzzle stage, Hong Er quickly jumped in for her chance.

-Qi Long shao ye, Where are you going?

-Hao, where are you going? Any fun places? Wei Wei joined in the question as well, excitingly jumped up to grab on Qi Long’s sleeve, she already prepared, if he was going to some thrilling special place, she will make sure that he’ll take her with.

-Um…Qi Long snapped back to daylight, remembering he had an important appointment with someone…I had an engagement with someone. I can’t take you with me.

Wei Wei quickly frowned her face down, putting out her tongue to him, glancing sharply. Hong Er also followed with a hard look.

-If nothing fun, then I will continue with my shopping. Hong Er? She called to her maid, standing beside her, whom quickly stepped up with support.

-Yes xiao jie!

-Let’s go…Qi Long Bieo ge, tai chen. Together Wei Wei and Hong Er waved good bye, and they dashed back to the market, enjoying them exploration from store to store.

Qi Long stayed behind to watch her for a little while.

“She meant to be mine! If it was for the lousy Cheung family, I would be the one to marry Zhao Wei Wei!” He thought out in his head, with a little smirked, he continued on “But I’m not give up that easy, I wanted her, and I will do anything to get her. That little Cheung kid will never touch her.”

A bright smile let out, as he turned his mind back to what ever he was doing, meeting someone at the river lane.

==============================

The figure of a gentleman in white stood bravely at the river lane, holding his sword in hit folded arms. He took his times slowly, watching at the clean flowing creek ran pass in front of him. He was waiting for a new customer, yet to him there was nothing to be excited about, it just going to be another murder case, as he the named he been giving in the black world. People called him “The white dragon sword” Just a soft slight from his sword would chop of dozen of head in a few minutes. That was also how good his Kung fu is.

Suddenly his calming eyes stirred as he sensed of someone was coming.

-White dragon sword! Qi Long called out from the back of the white figure by the lake.

White dragon turned his head around looking coldly to the new person just arrived.

-White dragon sword? Qi Long asked again, but seeing a man with a gentle build, holding a sword which crafted a dragon head at the handle, dressed all in white. He was sure, he got the right person. I’m Wu Qi Long…He continued, still he other side saw no expression. I wanted to make the deal with you.

White dragon carelessly turned back his view to the water running, and shortly he asked out, without looking back.

-Give me the prince! I need the name and the place!

-Her name is Zhao Wei Wei, san xiao jie (tam tieu thu) of the Zhao family! I don’t want you to kill her, I want you to rescue her! Qi Long put out his demanding news, but to his unexpected. White dragon turned back and rejected the deal immediately.

-Sorry, you got the wrong person! He answered back, and started to move away with his last words. I kill people not rescue them!

-Wait! Qi Long called out quickly before White dragon sword would use his high skill kung fu to fly away. I will pay you anything you want, if you completed the job.

White dragon paused back in the interested to the deal, no one had arranged with him in that exchanged before. Seeing his words had effected, Qi Long slowly moved to White dragon, and began to retell his plan again.

-Another two days, Zhao Wei Wei will be on the wedding carriage, going home to the Cheung family. I want you to take her away to Huan zhou. There are 200 silvers for the deposit, I will give you double when the job complete, plus a wish of anything you want that I can give!

White dragon glanced sharply at the man with the strangest deal that he had ever hurt.

-I don’t harm innocent, especially to a girl! He spoke out in his normal deep voice.

-You will not harm anyone, I asked you to rescue her. Qi Long found a little struggle in convincing the cold heart killer. But he decided that White Dragon was the only one perfect for the job, so finally he started to tell the whole story. Wei Wei is my Bieo mei, we meant to be wed when we grown up. But before I could ask for her hand in marriage, the son of the Cheung suddenly pushed in first, using their power in the Han’s palace to put pressure to the Zhao to agree.

White dragon, still standing tall and brave, looking at the river, he seen not that interested when it come to love stories.

-If she is your lover, why don’t you do it! White dragon asked back, as Qi Long, got into puzzled again.

-I would, if I can. But I can’t, plus I’m planning for something big, so I don’t want to create a big scene with the Cheung.

White Dragon gave a little smirk to the explanation. The meaning of Love is so vain, they can say it out of the mouth, but never show it in action.

-So you will accept the job! Qi Long searched out, hopping for a yes answer. Seeing White dragon still show no sign in acceptation or rejection, he pushed on. You will have to bring Wei Wei to Huan Zhou, I will be waiting for you there. But you have to put extremely protection for her.

“Huan Zhou?” White dragon mumbled back the word, as he turned to look at Qi Long in curious.

-That place is where the Manchurian lived, rebellion is happening down there!

-Ah….So you do know a little big about the battle field. Qi Long sheepishly laughed out, showing his real face as a traitor to the Han…Yes, Manchurian, will start the rebel and will take over the Han people very soon. White dragon, I see you a very bright gentleman, why don’t you…But before Qi Long could finish this invitation, White dragon lifted up his hand as a sign for him to stop wasting his speech.

-I am a free man, you people fighting over the land, I do not interested in taking side.

-Hao la…I understand…Qi Long changed the subject…So will you take the deal, to tell you the truth, I think only your power can over take all the security guards on that day… But truly he was thinking, because of White dragon’s cold expression would be the only thing that can control Wei Wei’s hyperactive habits. And his frozen feeling will be a good protective border, preventing the two of them falling for each other, while spending the times together.

White dragon, gazed his eyes to Qi Long, noticing the man who was making the deal with him was not a normal man, he known how to talk, how to attract other people. Interesting people that he doesn’t usually meet. So it would be fun, playing with them for awhile.

-Hao bac! (duoc roi) I will take the deal. He confidently answered.


Chapter 2

The next two days.

Wei Wei already paid the last goodbye respect to her parents. And now she was sitting uncomfortably in the horse carriage, staring for trip to the Cheung family. People in the town, were gathering along the streets, anxiously and excitingly waiting for the once in a long time wedding parade, from one of the richest household of the town.

This was the second time, that the Zhao said goodbye to their daughters, and would be the last time, as Wei Wei was the youngest child in the family. Her older sister was married off to an also famous magistrate family 3 years ago, and her elder brother married his wife almost 7 years.

Noises, paises, and compliments would be heard along the two sides, as Wei Wei anxiously wanted to lift up the curtain.

-Xiao Jie, you not allow to pull down your veil, only the groom can do that. As the little Hong Er gave out the reminder.

Wei Wei pouted in disappointed, as she sank back to the seat.

-I should be leaving you back with mother! She scolded at the little maid.

-How could you, I’m your favored personal maid! Hong Er cheekily replied back.

-No, right now, you’re my youngest grandmother. Wei Wei spoke out, as then she and Hong Er started to giggles together.

It was true, even Hong Er seem to be very annoying sometimes, or most of the time. No matter what she was like a best friend to Wei Wei since they were just kids. And Hong Er loved to take advantaged of that.

Today Wei Wei was on the way going to her husband, who she never knew before, and was not as keen, when she still wanted to play more. But by the pressures of her parents, and being a girl, she had no choice to agree. But to help Wei Wei correct herself from the little mistakes, that she usually does everyday, Hong Er had to come with her.

==============================

By now the horse carriage had reached to the forest. Due to the far distance, so the groom did not came in to pick up the bride, he will be waiting at the front gate of the town, where Wei Wei will be transfer back to the carrier, and the traditional ceremony will start by then.

-Hong Er! When are we going to get there? Wei Wei asked out in frustrated, she never had to sit still for so long, and it was getting boring for her.

-Aiyah, xiao jie, would you please stop moving! Hong Er cried out, while pressing for her mistress to stay clam.

-Aiyah…this is so boring, can’t I atleast get some excitement! Wei Wei moaned to herself, as Hong Er gave up on her stubborn little mistress, wonder how did she manage to cough with her for all these years.

-----------------------

White dragon Sword was sitting up high on one of the big tree, waiting for his target, to take away a bride, and bring her to a new city. How hard would it be, as White dragon always believed that nothing is impossible for him, until later.

As the carriage appeared from one side, White dragon immediately recognized it was his goal. So in a normal quick action, he released himself from the tree, and flew down to stop on the way of the carriage.

The security guards turned puzzled, looking at the man in white just dropped down in front of them.

-Hong Er, why did the carriage stop, let’s go and see! Wei Wei happily cried out, as she began to push herself out to the door.

-No, Xiao Jie.! Hong Er quickly forced back her mistress in worry… You’ll stay in here, I’ll go and look. After that the little maid turned her body around, as she tried to put her head to the door, taking a peek at what was happening at the front.

-What is it, Hong Er, tell me! Wei Wei excitingly followed behind Hong Er, pulling on her maid’s cloth, pushing for her way in to see for herself of what was going on.

By then, in no communication, White dragon quickly began his attack, as all the guards comprised themselves into the biggest fight of their life.

Wei Wei on hearing the sound of weapons hitting each other. Senses were telling her that there would be a big scene out there waiting for her. So no more patient, she pulled down the veil which been covered her face, pushed through between the doors and Hong Er, as she managed to stick her head outside.

-Xiao Jie, what are you doing, get back in? Hong Er spoke out the minute she saw Wei Wei pushed out.

-Forget it! Wei Wei refused, as her eyes were fully attached to the big fighting scene in front of her…Why are they fighting? She whispered out to her maid.

-I think that guy in white is a thief? Hong Er finally replied, given up on her mistress.

-COOL. Wei Wei cried out in amazed. A thief robbing on my wedding day. Hahaha…That is just the coolest thing I ever see. And when her hyperactive habit arise, Wei Wei in no hassles, jumped right down from the carriage to the ground.

-Aiya, Xiao jie, what are you doing? Hong Er cried out, but it was too late to grab back her mistress, so she had to jump down as well.

A distance away, more men was hit to their unconscious stage, as the defend members got smaller and smaller, while white dragon was getting more powerful after each hit. Unnoticed at a pair of big round eyes were clued to his sight.

Being interested in Kung fu skill herself, Wei Wei couldn’t take her eyes off from the fight. Since her parents always tried to stop her from learning martial art, she still managed to pick out little from here and there.

-Xiao Jie, you should go inside, don’t let the thief see you? Hong Er shakily cried out, as seeing the man in white was getting ready to come over to them.

In a quick fight White dragon managed to defeat all the guards, as they lay around the ground crying in pain. Reluctantly, he turned his eyes to the girls whom were standing beside the carriage. Looking at the big eye girl in bridal custom, he would easily picked out which one was the bride.

-Aiyah…Xiao Jie, we better run, he’s coming to us. Little Hong Er cried out in fear, as she started to pull the unwilling Wei Wei with her in another direction.

On seeing the target tried to escape, just one limp as White Dragon used his kung fu, and twisted himself ahead of the girls, landing straight in front of them.

-Wow. Wei Wei gasped in amazed to the high-trained kung fu skill that she never see before.

-What do you want? Hong Er asked out loud, as she bravely stood up in front trying to cover for her mistress, who tried to push her way out.

White dragon, gave a little laugh of the brave heart from the little maid. He slowly stepped closer, and in a quickly move, he rushed over and pointed to her froze point beside her neck, as Hong Er immediately stood still, even her vocal also had blocked, as she couldn’t say anything.

Wei Wei still stood in one place, not a sign of fear was expressed on her face, but instead she was showing full interested. Her eyes blinked quick in astonished, while watching the man in white moving closer to her.

-Sam Xiao jie! I’m here to take you away! White dragon, tried to be polite to the young mistress at first.

Wei Wei gave out a bright smile, but before she could reply, she also found herself already been frozen just like Hong Er. He then lift up the Bride in red to his shoulder, and in one jump, he disappeared into the sunlight, leaving the little Hong Er standing still behind, looking in worries to the fading figure of her Xiao jie.

===============================

In one run, White dragon carried Wei Wei to a little carve with all the prepared needs, like foods, waters and even cloth were ready.

He laid Wei Wei to sit down leading to the wall, while noticing her big bright eyes before had now turned to burning angers.

Slowly he released her frozen point, but when the moment she was free. “Boop” As her angers busted out on to his face. White dragon turned to look at her daringly. He only killed people, yet never had any one manage to slap on his face, only his strange looking bride who doesn’t know what she was against with. But before White Dragon could response to hit back with the sudden slap, Wei Wei already flung out in anger, as she used her legs, and kicked him out.

-How dares you! She yelled at him, while trying to stand up… I dare you froze me! You could just take me, I hate people used their high power against me like that… By now, she was already up, gazing at him in irritably.

White dragon, could not control his anger no more as he brought up his sword to her throat.

-I’m warning you, never do that with me again. He raged out his deep voice, looking violently at her, as Wei Wei gathered her strength, to stand still in front of his sword. Just a few minutes before that she was flaming mad to his impolite act. Then now she turned to shock, then to fear and finally broke out in tears, as she cried out uncontrollable.

Looking at her innocent eyes, which were dripping down with tears, White dragon suddenly turned puzzle, as he realized he had made a girl cried. Something he never done before. Slowly White dragon managed to calm down, as he released the sword from her neck. But still looking at her hardly, he put out the deal for her.

-Someone asked me to take you to Huan Zhou, so I would appreciate if you stay quiet for the trip, foods and cloths are there, change yourself and we will be leaving tomorrow.

With that he just left, without a look back to check how she was.

Wei Wei was recovering from her shock, as she stared after him in frustration. Dropping down slowly, as she pulled up her sleeve to pat dry her tears. Thinking of the next trip ahead, will it be fun or dangerous.

==================================

-What did you say again, Hong Er? As Zhao Lao ye, was shock together with the rest of the family, receiving the news that Wei Wei had been kidnapped.

-Shir Lao ye (Da. Lao gia) We were going to the forest, suddenly I felt the carriage stopped moving. When I took a peek outside, I…I… saw a man in white was fighting madly with all the guards. Then when I and..and… Xiao jie got down from the carriage. The man just walked straight to us, he…he…he.. freeze me, so I couldn’t move or speak, and he did the same with xiao jie. Then..then…then he picked her up and flew away. The little Hong Er started to repeat the situation one more time, but yet she still felt shaky and shivered.

By now Zhao Fu ren (Trieu Phu nhan) had broke down in tears, as her second daughter, came over to console her. Zhao Lao ye, stamped his fist on the table, as Zhao Fang, the elder son, came closer to Hong Er, to place the question.

-Hong Er, so do you still remember exactly how that man look like?

-Yes da ye (dai gia) He dressed in white, with a sword in his hand, I remember there was a dragon carved on the sword. Hong Er recalled back her memories to give out the description, as Zhao Fang and Zhao Lao ye turned to look at each other in shock.

“White Dragon Sword” both of the men humbled out in starlet, knowing that ‘White dragon sword’ was famous as a number one killer and now Wei Wei is in his hand. They mat had to prepare for the worst.

==============================

As the night moved on darker, White dragon returned to the cave with a bunch of dried branches in his hand. But his step paused as he looked at Wei Wei still fully dressed in her formal red bridal custom.

-Why didn’t you change? He asked out glacially while sitting down and start to feed on the fire.

-Why didn’t I change? Wei Wei stood up again, picked out the prepared clothes that he left for her…Can’t you see, this is man’s cloth, how on earth can I change… How Wei Wei wanted to get mad at that time, but she had to aware of herself, as it was not a normal man that she been dealing with.

-We still in the city, tomorrow when we go out the street, people might be looking for you. So it’s best for you to disguise. White dragon replied back in the normal unfeeling tone, as he didn’t bother to glance back at her.

Wei Wei was not used to be ignoring like that. She wanted to walk to him, and start on the fight. But cleverly, she understood, it was not easy to win over him. So stubbornly she yelled back to him.

-Then get out! I need to change!

White dragon accepted the shout as he told himself, it was just a girl. So slowly he stood up and walked out of the cave one more time.


Chapter 3

By nightfall at the Zhao, where Zhao Lao ye and Zhao Fang were worrying anxiously.

-Father, I know White dragon Sword only do things when people paid him to. He did not kidnap Sam mei mei (Tam muoi) to get money from us or from the Cheung. Zhao Fang explained out his prediction as Zhao Lao ye nodded with his son.

-I thought so too! Cause if he really is after money, then either the Cheung or us would had heard from him by now. But whom do you think that would pay for White dragon to kidnap Wei Er.

Zhao Fang took in a few seconds for the thought, as finally he brightly looked up at his father.

-Father, I think Qi Long!

-Qi Long! Zhao lao ye repeated the name while judging out in his head. Um…he nodded with agreement. Could be!!

-Mother had once promise by mouth, that she will let Wei Wei marry with Qi Long, once she reached her maturity. Zhao Fang seeing his father was with him, so he continued on with the verdict about why Qi Long had planned out to take Wei Wei.

-Um…But when we found out that he was with the Manchurian. I quickly accept the proposal of the Cheung, and forced Wei Wei to marry him. Qi Long was not very pleased, that why he left the city one day before the wedding. Zhao Lao ye was coming on the same road with his son, as it came clearer in his head, of the reason why his daughter had been kidnapped by a killer on her wedding day.

Zhao Fang been juggling all the points in his thoughts, and as the final result, he was sure that his cousin Wu Qi Long was the head of everything.

-That’s right, father! Qi Long is not willing to let Wei Wei go, so he paid for White Dragon to take Sam mei mei away on her wedding day and properly bring her to Qi Long in some special place.

Finally everything concluded, as Zhao Lao ye demanded for his son to communicate with the Cheung of what been happening, and that’s the two families will co-operated together to find Wei Wei back to complete the wedding.

=========================

Followed White dragon’s plan. Wei Wei had to disguise herself as a man so she would not attract any attention of the guards on the street, who were searching for the missing little mistress of the Zhao.

By late evening, they stopped at the end of the city, but since nightfall arrived again, they decided to rest a night in the motel, before exiting the city gate, tomorrow morning.

-Give me one room with two separated beds in it! White dragon demanded, as he put down the money on the desk. Wei Wei was beside and watching at him furiously.

The waiter took them up the their rest room, as the door closed behind her, Wei Wei quickly turned around to rage out the question.

-Don’t you know that male and female can not share the same room! (Nam nu tho tho bat tuong than)

She stood still in anger beside the middle table, watching him recklessly walked over to one bed and place his stuff on it.

-Don’t worry..Was his replied while spreading out the blanket. I’m just doing this to watch over you. I won’t touch you.

Wei Wei had been watching behind his back, how she hated when he never talked to her face.

-But you still haven’t tell me! Who asked you to take me to Huan Zhou and what for? She eagerly wanted to know, as it been a big wonder in her mind since what happened yesterday.

-Wu Qi Long. White dragon shortly answered.

-Qi Long bieo ge? Wei Wei humbled back in wonder, she paused back for a moment and re-asked the question again.

-Qi Long bieo ge paid you to take me to Huan Zhou.?

White Dragon gotten very tied with all her questions, he quickly turned around and gave a definite nod.

-I won’t go! Wei Wei objected, as she finally figured out why Qi Long wanted to take her back. It was only because the promise that her mother once made. But she only sees him as a big brother, and most of all she didn’t want to get marry not to anyone, yet.

White dragon turned a straight look at Wei Wei, dashing his eye brown together, wondering what she was up to.

-I won’t go. It just like you taken me away from one hook to place me on another one, either way my life still going to be hooked up. So I won’t go. Wei Wei cried out persistently, as she annoyingly sat down on the other bed, from the opposite side.

-I don’t care, you willing to go or not. I just know that I’ll get pay to get you there. He aimed out his point to her, as Wei Wei laid a full disgusted look on him.

-Money, is that all you think about? How much will he pay you? She anxiously asked out, thinking that maybe she can negotiate for a release.

-In total 600 silver, with a wish of anything I want. White dragon answered snobbishly.

Wei Wei frowned back on the money figure, as she can’t really get that much right now. But before she could come up with any new plan, White dragon had came to the table and was about to blow out the candle.

-Wait! What are you doing? She asked out in disturbed

-Go to sleep! We will leave early in the morning. He commanded to her.

-I will, But don’t blow the candle, how can I trust you! Wei Wei spoke out, unwillingly with the idea of sharing the same room with a stranger.

White dragon, slowly let the candle glow on as he went back to his bed.

===========================

All night, Wei Wei been thinking of a plan to escape, as it no way she will quietly follower the coldhearted man to Huan Zhou, to be force in marriage again with Qi Long.

So since the drawn just arrived, as the sun hadn’t show it face, but Wei Wei was already packed. Quietly she sneaked out of the bed, looking over to the other side. She comforted herself with safety as seeing White dragon was still fast as sleep, holding his sword beside him.

“You want to control me? You must be out of your mind! Silly man!” Wei Wei teased inside, as then she quickly yet lightly tip toed out of the room, and exited the motel.

----------------------------

-Hah! A single man with a stupid looking sword, and wanted to over power me! Why don’t you go and kill yourself instead! Wei Wei cheekily cried out as she turned back to see that the motel was a far distance away.

So joyfully she turned around, making her way to the city gate. Until suddenly she had to pause back look at the White figure already standing at the gate ahead of her. Wei Wei’s eyes widen in fear, as her lower jaw dropped down ghastly for some air as if she just saw a ghost.

-You! How did you…When did you? Wei Wei found herself puzzle in asking him the questions.

Standing in front of her, was the person that she thought she had safely escaped from. To her he supposed to be in the motel room fast as sleep. But reality, he was already standing bravely at the gate, before she got there, with the old dragon sword in his hand.

-Going somewhere so early, Zhao cu naing! (Trieu co nuong) White Dragon glacially began his word, as he turned his head to look straight at her, the look that shivered Wei Wei through her body and frozen her spines.

She took a step back in fury. Her first attempt for escape had fell right down to the bottom. But her cleverness still quickly came up with the excuse, as she turned the pace the accused at him.

-I was just waiting for you, so we can go! You told me that we will leave early morning, right! So left go.!…She pretended as if she didn’t do anything wrong, coming back to her bossy tone, she ordered for him to go, and at the same time, walked in front of him, to show that she’s still not under his power.

White dragon, slightly shook his head from her back, and speechlessly, he followed her as the two exited from the city, when the first sunlight began to shine.

=================================

At the Zhao resident.

-Father, I already informed to the Cheung, they were not that happy. But they will help in sending trout out to look for Sam mei mei (Tam muoi). Zhao Fang, politely reported back the information to his father.

After he received the news, Zhao Lao ye slowly stood up from the seat and approached to his son.

-I known where Wei er (Vy nhi) will be taken to!

Zhao Fang surprisingly looked up to his father, as he put on the pressure.

-Please tell me father!

Zhao Lao ye, put up a hand to stroke his pepper white bear, and replied.

-Huan Zhou. Manchurian is planning for rebel from Huan Zhou. Qi Long must be going there.

-But it’ll take about a month to get to Huan Zhou, and there are several different ways to get there. Zhao Fang put out the puzzle, he wanted to get back his sister as soon as possible, but things are getting more and more out of hand.

===================================

Since they got out from the city. White dragon picked the road through the forest, as it will be hard for people to chase up, since the road are very rocky and no horse can get through.

As the destination point was still a long way from their reach, but Wei Wei was trying hard everyday, everything she can to escape from his watch. They were entering to a quiet lake, yet Wei Wei had been talking, non-stop. She planned either to annoy him to death, or it would get to his unbearable limit, so then he would just release her for his own peaceful.

-Do you know that you are the cruelest man in the world, the most evil man. I never see anyone with no dignity like you, taking only 600 silver, yet you willing to push a girl life in to the burning oven. Are you even a man? As Wei Wei repeated her made up praise again for the countless time that she could remember.

White dragon just kept walking straight ahead as he had been ignoring her words since these few days. He began to wonder whether she really was a mistress from a formality rich family, because all the time with him she showed no manner at all. Suddenly a sound distracted his thought, as White Sword turned himself to the back, and quickly grabbed at Wei Wei’s hand, pulled her over to him.

Wei Wei was still busing in blaming the curse on him, when she felt a until sudden grip on her hand, and the force that pulled her to the front.

-What are you doing? She cried out, as White dragon stepped in front of her. His sword was ready in one hand, and the other hand signaling for her to be quiet, while his eyes was turning around checking carefully of what were coming to them.

Wei Wei by this time noticed the changing windy atmosphere, as she also turned her head around in curious.

Right then as a quick flash, three figures dressed in black, finally appeared as they twisted their body above the tree, and planning to surround White dragon.

As a normal defended force, White dragon jumped out to the empty area and started to fight off with the three figures.

Leaving Wei Wei stood still away watching at the fight, suddenly a new escaping plan strike down to her, so slowly she started to bend low her body, and quiet stepped backward, thinking she could make the run while White dragon were busy fighting.

Only three men in black were no matched to the powerful skill of the number one killer. At in no time White dragon manage to bring all of them to the ground, and yet his sword was never came out of its cover. In quick sense he turned around to an empty space and realized Wei Wei had gone missing again. That was her second attempt to run.


Chapter 4

With two hands were holding on her clothed so it could not get in her way of escaping. Wei Wei made the run like flash ray into the forest,

“Come on, Wei Wei, can’t you run any faster!” A thought spoke out with courage, as she turned her head slightly to have a quick glance in behind. “If cold blooded white guy, going to get to you again, you’ll be dead!” The thought brought goosebumps to her silky skin, as she could not imagine of how mad, or frustrated that cold blooded guy going to react when he noticed she had sneaked out when he was busy with fighting.

But there was no time for fear, the only think she could do then, was to run, and that exactly what she was trying to do, until the white shadow, caught up to her, and spin his body a metes further, landing just a few steps away from Wei Wei.

“Arhhhh!!” She yelled out, while trying to put on the brake to her speed, before she would go slamming in to his body.

But since she was still trying to collect the balance for herself. He lifted up his sword out of its cover, and flied it straight to the front, aiming exactly under her throat.

“Arhhhh!” Wei Wei gave out another shout, this time was louder, more terrified, as she tried to step backward away from the coming sword, but suddenly her back was blocked up by a big tree. As it gave White dragon the chance to fly his sword even closer, and just stopped in a little inch away from her skin.

Wei Wei swallowed a hard pump in her throat, gasped in silent, as horror expressed in her eyes. She breath in difficulty but would not dare to move, since a little shift could cost her a life.

-Why are you always have to show off your sword in front of me? She finally grabbed back the confidant, on seeing he had paused back on his action. With the sheepish thought, she was planning to duck below from the sword line, and escape from underneath.

But she even not plan how to move yet, White dragon had already taken back the sword, but in the same moment, he put forward two fingers and pinched at the two frozen points on her chest.

-Sorry Xiao jie! I have to stop you from doing another escaping! As the normal heartless voice, he gave out a warning sentence, mocking at her thought of trying to run away from him.

-This is not fair, I did not run away, I was just trying to find a save place to hide, while you were busy with fight, and now you neglected me like this..this is..totally. Wei Wei raged out a long complained, but she never had the chance to finish it, as White dragon got tired of her loud voice, so one more time, he pointed his finger under her neck, to froze her vocal point.

Wei Wei began voiceless. But in her angry eyes, she still not willing to admit the defeat. But as if White dragon would be mind about it, he only wanted to get her to Huan Zhou, and collect the arranged money. Despaired how willing or non-willing she was, he just lift up her body to his shoulder, and walked forward on the road, in a piece of quietness.

==========================================

The technique of frozen the typical point showed to work very effectively, as Wei Wei couldn’t talk, or move at all, since White Dragon put her down in a new caved that they just arrived. He went out to pick down from fruit, collected water. But to pay the revenge Wei Wei refused to eat or until he unfreeze her. But White dragon, didn’t want to take that kind of insecurity risk. So he just left her sitting still in one corner, while he took some rest by himself.

White dragon went to sleep in one corner in his sitting position. As the night grew longer a sudden wind awoke the killer. He glared his eyes over the victim of his cruelty, sitting at the other corner, looking very uncomfortably in her sleep. A certain regret feeling came pass him for the first time, so slowly he tiptoed his way over to her. After kneeled down in front of her, at one point, he put out his finger and unfreezes on frozen points.

But to his incautious of the little mischief lady, who was playing the pretender game. She waited until the victim fall in the track, when he sympathized enough to unfreeze her, at the moment she was off the hock. So quickly she kicked back the return, in a flash when he was kneeling within the reachable distance, she lead forward and hit back on his frozen point. This time he was the one who had to stay still.

-Hahahahah…She laughed out loudly in victory, standing up, and looked down on the her loser… Do you think with your highly martial art skill, and you can bully me all the time! Well too bad, you haven’t met the right person. So this would be the experience for you! I’m going now. Don’t chase after me. You just better sit still…Bye…Hope I will never see you again!

Wei Wei gave a mischief winked of winning, and in the best speed that she can, ran out from the cave heading back into the forest, the third time, running for her escape. Leaving being the boiling hot killer, blaming himself for underestimated the young lady. “Female always is intractable!” He frowned in anger.

=================================

Wei Wei joyfully skipped her way back into the freedom road, believed strongly that she had finally escaped from the sight of the cold blooded guy! But to her determined and confident, she had left out two major points.

One was that, her martial art, was next too pathetic. The only way she learned where is the frozen point, was by copied from when White dragon did it to her. So there would be two chances, one that she pointed to the right place, and the other one was the wrong place. Lucky for her, with the first trial, and it worked half way, which meant she did freeze him, but not as properly, and he could be loosen any time.

The second point was that, Wei Wei never thought of White Dragon was a super highly trained Kung Fu master. And even if she did hit him at the right frozen point, it will take him a very short time to unfreeze himself with his own skill, and go after her again.

That was the theory that she missed out, until while running into the forest, Wei Wei still hasn’t realized the danger she was in, on playing with a heartless killer. But then another danger occurred.

About 5 people well dressed, 3 men, and 2 women, flied quickly toward Wei Wei direction, at they all landed to the ground, deliberately to stop on her way.

-Young boy, have you see White Dragon Sword around here? Asked from a young girl of the new group, as she pointed her finger indicated at Wei Wei.

-What White dragon Sword? Wei Wei asked out of annoying as she girl had misjudged her to a boy. She lifted up her face and took another careful glance at the new people.

The young girl whom spoken to her, was pretty, estimated about her age. She dressed in light pink, and was standing next to a middle age lady in blue. Wei Wei guessed they were mother and daughter, with the big man standing next to them, properly a whole family, but then who is the other two young guys, properly their two older sons.

But with all that analyzed still didn’t help Wei Wei to figure out, who on earth was “White dragon Sword” and why are these people all looking for him in an unfriendly attitude.

-Xiao Zi, we’re asking you, have you see White Dragon Sword.? The older man raged out his voice, losing his patient with the young glad.

-I don’t even know you are “White..what..Dragon..something? Wei Wei irritably replied, looking blankly at every one of them. As the girl in pink gave a little fascinated look on her answered

-White dragon Sword, is the number one killer? Only a non-knowledge person would not know or heard of White dragon! One of the young guys spoke out, looking down on Wei Wei in his sobbed eyes.

Wei Wei in returned gave a sharp glance back at him, which sent a little shock to the guy, he never see a male with such beautiful eyes before, there should be something hidden behind that young guy.

-I don’t know any White dragon. I don’t see any Dragon Sword…On the thought of the dragon Sword her mind suddenly hit back to the cold-blooded guy, with his strange sword. “That could not be him!” She comforted herself, and returned back to the speech… And you people are in my way, so would you pleased spread out.

By the say of that, she continued to walk on, waving her hand at the front so the people could move out. The young girl in pink still watching at her in full interested, while the other young guy had a full questioning look. But the older man and lady were not very pleased with her impolite attitude. So as Wei Wei playfully walked her way pass them, the lady quickly put out her knife and was aiming behind Wei Wei’s back. Her young daughter and younger son were about to stop their mother, when another figure appeared from the distance.

He flied across the group, and landed down like an eagle picking up a victim, as he put his hand around her waist, and lift her up to the sky.

Wei Wei was walking forward, in a suddenly forced, she screamed out, when her body suddenly been lifted up in the air. But then when she turned around to one side, she met him again, still heartlessly cold with no feelings express on his face, except for his angry eyes scolding at her.

The group of people took a few second to recover from the shock of the white figure just appeared to the scene, and took away the young glad. Together at once, they lifted up their bodies and flied after him.

White Dragon, finally landed back on the ground, still holding on Wei Wei tightly between his arms. Turning to the back, he saw the same group of people aiming toward him. A fight was about to begin, but remembering of how Wei Wei tried to escape when he was in the last fight, this time, with his left hand, he held on her right hand tightly, as he pulled her closer for a word.

“I have to get rib of these people. So stay low”

-What? Wei Wei shot out in starlet…What do you mean by stay low? She asked again in confusion, and struggled to get his hand away from her hand.

But White dragon, didn’t bother to listen, he squeaked her hand so tight that Wei Wei had to let out a painful cry, and then she reluctantly leave him alone to do what ever he wanted.

Looking backward, Wei Wei got a little stunned of the quick force that the people at the back were chasing after them. White dragon, already took his sword out from its cover, which tied on to his back, and pointed toward the five targets.

Finally the other five landed down, just a few metes away from them.

-White dragon Sword! We finally found you! The older man spoke out, as Wei Wei turned in stunned looking at White dragon.

“So he is the number one killer! Oh my God what have I been doing?” She cried a little inside, but then the voice from the older lady caught back her attention to the group.

-White dragon, today our Yang family, will revenge for our parents.!

-We will revenge for our Grandparents! The two young guys and the girl spoke out at the same time, all of them had taken out their weapon, most are swords and knifes, as they got the ready position to start the fight.

White dragon, never replied in word he gave a little smirk from the corner of his month, and put his left hand which was holding on to Wei Wei’s hand to the back, indicated for her to step behind him.

In no time to waste the group of people started to fight, at they divided in two groups, with the old man and woman went up at the same time, and their children attacked followed.

White dragon still in the cool stage, as with one hand, to fought all the way from left to right, but never let anyone came to behind his back, where Wei Wei was standing, with her arms now linked to his hand.

The Yang family tried to give out all their skills from the long practicing years to defeat the killer of her family member. But his martial skill through all the years had also got stronger. Added in the powerful strength from the famous one and only Dragon Sword, it was not easy to defeat him, even know they had out numbered him.

So in one point, White Dragon used his force, to push the five members backward to a certain distance. From then he twisted his sword around rapidly, created little fire rays sparkled out. In a quick action, he wiped his sword downward, using a little sharp fire rays to hit the grounds, created a range of explosion, as the air suddenly became dusty and blurry.

The Yang family after been pushed back, quickly lied flat on the ground, hoping to be save from the series of explosion power of the Dragon Sword. Gradually, they stood up again, cough a little from the dust, and waved their hand to get a better view, but by then, White Dragon and the young boy was no where to be seen.


Chapter 5

After the easy escape from the Yang family, White dragon, took Wei Wei straight back to the old cave, as he let go of her hand in a heavy force, that cause her body to slam down on the ground.

“Ouch, ouch, ouch” She cried out painfully, from the fall and from her bruised hand due to his hard gripped on it for such a long time.

-Ouch…My poor beautiful hand, my fingers…She sobbed a little while gently used her unhurt hand to lift up the other one, and sniffed some more.

White Dragon was standing at one corner, he took a brief glance at her curiously, wondered was she really hurt? Or just faking it out to make a big scene. He then moved in a few steps closer, to get a better view at the bright red hand of Wei Wei, but another step further he took, she suddenly yelled out viciously.

-What are you doing? Stay away from me! Her eyes gazed at him in fire, while she took a few steps, back away to the wall. No matter how playful or mischief she may appear to be, but she still was a well-brought up mistress from a very high-class family. Never in her life, that anyone would physically hurt her that much, like he had. Now facing to him, she was telling herself, that one-day she will take revenge for all the hurts that he caused to her!

-Give me your hand! He spoke out the intention in a careless tone, as Wei Wei became more caution and started moving to a new direction.

-I’m not going to give anything to you, unless you tell me the true. Who are you? Her eyes were filled in fury, as she kept on fired the questions at him.

-Don’t you already know! He gave up on chasing her. So if she was in pains, that’s her faults. Slowly he turned his way back to the other corner, lifted up his sword, and started polishing it with a small cloth.

Wei Wei eyes brightened in fear at the beaming ray shone from the sword, was blurring her eyes…

-So…you…you’re…White Dragon Sword…The..number one…killer.

She found her voice typically shook hard on the last word “Killer”, turned half way to find out his reaction. But to her surprise, he was still recklessly paying the tension to his sword not on her.

-So what do you want to do with me? She raised out her voice, finding it was extremely difficult with deal with such an ignorant person. Don’t you there to kill me…she continued on…Cause if you do. My father and my brother will take revenge on you!

White dragon turned his eyes coldly, looking at her with a smirked smile. “Revenge” the word that he heard everyday, from all sources of people whom wanted to kill him. And now she was talking like, as if he never knew the word before. So ignored her intention of making a deal with him. White dragon stood up and head for the door. Then…

-Way!! Ice person, where are you going, I’m talking to you? Wei Wei called out from the other end, in her full demanding tone.

But once again, he just did not care at all, and continued on walking out the mouth of the cave, leaving back the little stubborn mistress, whom usually always got what she want, and now she can’t even communicate to a heartless killer.

Stamping her foot on the ground, tearing between her hair. Wei Wei looked on to his shadow with haters and some more haters.

=====================================

After the Yang had lost the track from the White shadow of Dragon Sword. They had to quickly come back in the near by town, and settled down for the night at a famous ink.

Yang Da ye (Duong dai gia) and his wife Yang fu ren (Duong phu nhan), together with their eldest son, Yang Chi Shing (Duong Chi Thanh) were discussing on a new plan to defeat their greatest enemies, since the unexpected lost at the first encounter before.

The second son, Yang Chi Lam (Duong Chi Lam) was suppose to join in the group, but he was simply not that interested, although he will do what ever they asked him to. Since he wanted to revenge for his grandpa.

The only free person in the family was Yang Xin Ru (Duong Tam Nhu), as her parent considered she was too arrogant in giving out ideas and expected everyone to follow. Leaving the lonely room of her own, Xin Ru walked out to the hallway, at the same time found her brother was sitting quietly outside in the calm night, looking up attractively to the sparkling sky.

-Er Ge (Nhi Ca)! Xin Ru excitedly yelled out as she run over and tapped on her brother’s shoulder.

Chi Lam snapped out his dream as he frowned on seeing his playfully sister, who quickly put the question on him.

-What are you doing out here? Xin Ru made up her baby face, looking cheekily at her brother.

-Oh nothing! Chi Lam denied as he pulled up a hand to push away her little mischievous face.

-I don’t believe you! If not, why aren’t you be in there discussing with tia (Cha), niang (me) and da ge (dai ca)! Xin Ru was always the pain of the family when it come too poking on what other people was doing, even known it was none of her business.

-I’m not interested, that’s all! Chi Lam strongly pressed down the reply, prayed for his sister would let him off the hook.

Just then, Xin Ru suddenly changed in pace, she sat down quickly beside her bother, and silently asked.

-Er ge, do you think we would ever see that boy again?

Chi Lam turned a little confused when first heard the question, but he soon realized of whom Xin Ru was talking about.

-I got the feeling, he will be with White Dragon! He answered back, while his mind played the flashed back of the young charming boy their family just met, before encounter with White Dragon. Even known it was a boy, and he should not be feeling so deeply enchanted. But a special instinct sense that told Chi Lam, he was different.

-I wondered who is that boy? Xin Ru said the question in her mind out aloud.

-Me too? Chi Lam frowned in. He would love to find out as much as possible about that person. He just looked too sensitive to be a guy, but why would he be hanging with White Dragon, who showed to be very protective.

Xin Ru who was sitting next to him, let out a little sigh, as Chi Lam surprisingly looked over to his sister. Was he dreaming or is it true that she finally know how sigh, since Xin Ru was always the type of happy active person, nothing would get her down.

-Why are you suddenly sighed over a boy we just met? He asked back, this time it was his turn to stare the questioning eyes at her, making Xin Ru blushed bright red, as she quickly stood up, to get away from her brother’s pick.

-Oh! Nothing! She lied and in no time made the run to escape from any further notices of her brother.

==========================================

Xin Ru was too bore to return to her room, since she can’t stay back with her brother, who will try to tease her to death. So she decided to take a little walk.

Passing the balcony, as her curious pace, she would sometimes tried to peck her eyes in other visitors room, just to see what other people was up to in the ink.

Suddenly, her interested increased highly, as Xin Ru quietly hidden herself below a half-opened door, watching a young couple, confessing their love inside the room.

-Siu Ge, I made his special floral ribbon, just for you. It’s to show my greatest love for love, and that will never change! Said the young lady, as she lay softly in her lover’s arm.

-Thank you! Was the replied from the man, as he gently held on to the ribbon, on put it on his chest…I will laid this in my heart, my soul, for ever I go I will remember you, and your love! Just after that, the two lovers drawn nearer as then a passionate kissing scene added in.

“Wow…” Xin Ru cried out in admiration, wondering could she ever has a chance to be like that!

Happily she moved on with her walk, leaving the private moment for the lovers. In fact her mind was running through some exciting thoughts as well.

“Maybe I could made one of that floral ribbon to give him!” She gave a small giggle to herself, as then a haunting music distracted her mind.

It was the sound of a flute, yet the rhythm was so seductive. Xin Ru interestedly made her steps followed to the captivated sound, and finally, she reached to the mini garden outside. In the shelter built in the middle of the garden, sat a young man, whose mind was concentrated fully on his flute. The man was very young, Xin Ru guessed he would not be much older then her Er gege. But why such a young-minded person can play those melancholy tone.

-Er! Xin Ru grabbed back one of the waiter who just walked passed her…Who is that man? She asked out, while pointing her finger as the person sitting in the shelter.

-Answer you miss Yang. He’s our new guest, just arrived about 1hour ago. I heard the surname is Lin…After that, the waiter quickly excused himself and moved on, while Xin Ru found a comfy seat from a distance, enjoined the music.

=====================================

White Dragon soon came back to the cave with two fishes on the stick, added in with some other fruits and more water. His first impression when stepping in the cave was astonished, finding Wei Wei was still there, sitting quietly. He would have thought she might make the fourth run already. But thank god! she didn’t.

Wei Wei curved up herself neatly in a corner, as the enemy returned, her eyes turned in caution, watching every single action from which she believed to be a dangerous killer. She didn’t make any intention to run, because of the awareness in her, after knowing he was not a typical delivery guy. So in case of wasting her energy to run and get caught later again. Wei Wei rather, focused on the way the on how to approach with the heartless killer.

-Take it! White dragon gave out a freshly cooked fish to Wei Wei, who carefully crawled over, took it from him, and quickly returned back to her corner.

The two enjoyed their meal, quietly, but silent was never the prefect environment for Wei Wei, so soon she broke out to a range of questions.

-Why are you taking me with you? The first one started. As White Dragon, reluctantly answered in short words.

-I already told you!

-But yours a killer, not a type of person who go and took a bride from one man and place her to another man! She asked out, coming back to her temper self.

-I also work for money! Looking for a long full-length answer from White Dragon was like once in a full moon.

Wei Wei was not at all satisfied with what she received from his replies. So slowly her anger fought out of her patient, but thankfully she managed to came herself down and turned to another subject, may be he would talk more .

-Who are the people before? Your enemies? Started looking at him in curious.

This time White dragon did not bother to speak, as he only nodded in a ‘yes’ form. But Wei Wei still wanted to know more.

-Do you get a lot of situation like this morning!

Once again, he did nothing else but nod. And finally Wei Wei could not control her anger any more, due to many annoying reasons.

-So how can you get me to Huan Zhou, when you can’t even speaks a word with me! Was the deal that you have to send me in a form of a “DEAD BODY”…She stood on her foot, hopping to gain some confidant for her strength.

-It’s my business to worry, not you to concern! This time the replied was actually a bit longer, but still, there was not a single happy soul in his face.

-It’s MY LIFE, you’re dealing with, and you tell me not to concern! She raged out as unnoticed that she had moved in a little closer to him. …But, I want to make a deal with you. Her voice slowed down in a more softens tone, as Wei Wei searched her eyes over her reaction.

White Dragon tiredly glanced a sharp stare at her, curiously of what plan had she up to now. Wei Wei made sure that White Dragon shown no signs in wanting to attack her, while slowly she stepped in a few more closer.

-You know, you can teach me your kung fu, if you don’t want other people to harass me?

As she finished her sentence, White Dragon whipped up his arm, and to move her away.

-I’m not a teacher!

And with a condensed reply, White dragon turned himself to the corner, and squashed down on a sitting position, preparing for a little rest. Wei Wei looked at him displeasingly, as she also returned back to her last seat.

-White Dragon! She yelled out his name, while pointing a finger to him, expressing her madness…If anything happened to me, you’re be responsible for it.

But White dragon showed no interested, which provoked Wei Wei to turn even more irritated. “I’m not going to lose for that cold-hearted guy!” She consoled herself, as the finalized of her mind, she had to get something that she wanted.

-And another thing, We are already out of the City, I’m going to dress as a girl like normal, because I don’t want people to mistake. And I don’t care either you’ll going to like it or not!

Wei Wei believed that her decision of not disguising as a boy would turn White Dragon off his cool stage. But disappointment just continued on, as by now White Dragon eyes were closed as if he was travelling in his deep sleep.

“Stupid soulless guy!” She humbled to herself, at the same time picked up a stone and threw it directly to White Dragon’s face.

Evens known his eyes were closed, but his senses had not stop working. As in an easy quick action, White Dragon put up one hand, using the force from his fingers, he flicked the stone away and dropped on the ground, before it reached to him.

Wei Wei was amazed with his potential, but she can’t stand to see some one who was more stubborn then she is.


Chapter 6

The dawning sky was still waiting for the first sunlight of the day, but Wei Wei already packed her clothes neatly, as she quietly tip toed outside the cave, passing the peaceful White dragon who was still in his sleep. She was not going to escape again ofcouse, cause White Dragon will pull her back anyway. Everyone relax, Wei Wei was just coming to the Waterfall Lake nearby to have an early bath.

A caution observed the surrounding area very closely, when she was sure that there was no other living soul around, beside her. Then she gently released her first layer of clothing, followed by another two. Taking a bath in the wild area, she still must be careful, so leaving back on, her last layer of clothes, which was a bit thinner to reassure for safety reason. Slowly then, she counted her steps while walking toward the water, at a certain of depth that she was looking for. Wei Wei began to dip down her body, so that the water could cover up to her neckline. Then patiently she put up her hand, and released the hairpin, so that her long silky hair could just fall down easily into the water. At the count of three, Wei Wei released her body and went for a swim under the water.

A distance apart, behind a big bushy tree, a white shadow appeared behind her back. He just had a quick glance that she was alright and then quickly turned away without any hesitation, he went back to the cave, pretend to be sleeping.

===================================================

After a long comfortable bath, Wei Wei put on her normal light red and white outfit, since the two were her favorite colors. She clammily patted her hair into the simple floral pattern, and was happy to find her old self back, when looking at her girly imagine from the water. On the way home, it happened to be very handy as she picked out some little jasmine flowers along the way, and started to attached it on to her hair, as they released a beautiful soft smell that could bring any guy down on their kneel. Well, anyone except White Dragon ofcouse.

He was already awaken, by the time she skipped back in the cave, showing a full sense in refreshment. Wei Wei proudly showed her attractive figure in front of him, as she danced a few steps and humble out a few notes. But to her displeased, White Dragon hardly care to show any attraction. By the sign of her walking in, he immediately stood up, and walked out to the cave while ordered out to her, behind his back.

-Get your thing, we’re going to the market! And with those blank words, he stepped outside leaving back a cold air running in the cave.

Wei Wei stumbled her way over to pick her the rest of her things, she glanced passed over his way evilly and mumbled a few words.

-Showing off, stupid cold-blooded guy! I don’t believe that I can’t get to you from here to Huan Zhou! Wait for my revenge. Whispering out a few cursed that was the only thing she could do, and then reluctantly, she had to followed his steps and walked out to the main street.

=======================================================

It was early afternoon, by the time they reached to the nearest market. People were going back and ford, left to right, in and out from so many directly, such a big differentiation to where they spent their night in those single caves.

White Dragon had to transfer some from bank note into useful money so they can spend on small necessary things along the road. So he stopped by the local mini bank, but Wei Wei refused to go in, she rather waited outside, so she could enjoy the busy atmosphere, that she been missing.

Looking around with interested, suddenly her eyes caught downward, on to a blind man, who was squashing down in front of the bank, begging for some penny for his little flat bowl. She felt a certain sympathy for the unfortunate man, as she watched a kind hearted lady, who came to him and dropped a little silver stone in his empty bowl.

“Luckily life was not that hurtful!” Wei Wei sighed as she looked down, and felt a little penny wrapped under belt, walking forward she was about to drop her penny for the man. But just then, a little cheeky small hand, appeared as its quickly took over the silver stone from the man’s bowl and put back to the bowl next to it.

“You cheeky, little rat!” Wei Wei groaned in her head, watching at the shameful action of a little boy, no older than his teenager age, yet already known how to play the dirty games. The little boy had been sitting beside the poor disabled man all the time, also pretending to be blind, and was begging for food. But every time he saw a penny or a stone been dropped down for the old man, he quickly picked it back into his bowl. Unfortunate for him, this time he was caught!

“I’ll catch you for good this time, you little rat!” Wei Wei sheepishly smiled to herself, while walking nearer to where the man and the little boy was sitting, deliberately she dropped down her last penny, correctly into the man’s bowl, and then stayed low from behind, trying to catch the mouse in action.

The little one opened half of his eye, turning slightly from side to side, making sure that no one was watching him and using the same old trick, he smoothly put his little hand over to pick up the penny. But the moment, his finger touched the money, it was immediately caught back a quick hand from the back.

-Hah…I got you, you little shameful rat! How dare you to steal money from the poor man like that! Wei Wei yelled out, while still holding tightly onto his hand.

-Ouch! Let’s me go! Cried the little boy, while protesting to be free. But he was to small, compared to her adult strength, so the more he tried to escape the harder she held on to him, and pulled him out to the opened space, where it was easier to control him.

-You cheeky thief! She scolded, hitting on his back…..Give back the money to the old man now, or you will never use your dirty arm again. Wei Wei used more strength to apply the pressure on his right arm and twisted it to the back.

-Ouch, Ouch, okey, I will, I will! The boy confessed in pain, as he used the other free hand to pick the money from his bell.

By now, they street had been attracted tremendously, as many people gathered around in circle, watching on the pretty lady catching a little thief. The admirers started to give out compliments that distracted Wei Wei’s concentration as she turned over to receive the cheerful comments. Unnoticed that she had accidentally released her strength and the small thief was smart enough to take advantage on the situation. With a strong pulled he managed to free his right hand fairly easy when Wei Wei was not watching at him. And quickly then he turned back to gave her a big push to the ground, after that, he just ran straight to the crown, making the way for escaping.

-You little bastard, come back here! Wei Wei yelled out, while making herself to stand up from the fall, steadied back her steps, she started to separate between the crown to find a way that she can get the boy. But just she used her force to push away from the crown group of people, she immediately bumped into someone else, as their two heads bounced on each other, and the two girls quickly fallen back on the ground in two sides.

Xin Ru decided to gone down the street first thing in the morning, after a quick breakfast with her family. She planned on some personal shopping in the new market, before they head off again to the forest following White Dragon’s step. But as she reached to the corner of one small street, she found an exciting group of people was gathering outside the local bank. A heroine lady was catching a thief, she heard. How exciting, and as a natural nosy habits that she was born with, Xin Ru couldn’t control herself rather then to come over and take a look.

But there were too many people, so as she trying to squeak in from outside, out of the blue, she felt a certain rushing force back fired on her from inside the group. Her head then got hit with some other, and the next thing she knew, she was on the ground, with a slight pain from her forehead to her back bones.

“OUCH” Both girls cried out, as they rolled around, trying to get back their balanced, and also to escape from many pairs of furious eyes were watching on them.

The crowned got amused at first, at the sight of two young ladies bumping into each other. But slowly the gathering was dismissed, and everyone returned to their own things, leaving the two ladies trying to sit up by themselves from the fall.

-Oh! Gosh, who on earth would run into me like that! Wei Wei cried, while still rubbing on the big plum on her forehead.

-How could I know, there a person running out of the crown. Xin Ru fought back.

Slowly in pain, both girls found a way to stand back on their feet, and also to look at the silly person who they just met.

-My gosh! Wei Wei cried out in puffed while recognizing Xin Ru was the girl from the Yang’s family that she met yesterday. Before she could find a way to run and hide, Xin Ru already spotted at her in wonder.

“That girl look awfully familiar, but I’m sure I never see her before!” Xin Ru thought out, as she started to walk nearer to Wei Wei, while observing her from feet to head, from front to back.

Wei Wei firstly got scare that she might be recognized, but on seeing Xin Ru funny way of observation, Wei Wei copied on, as she did the same thing. Walking around in circle, looking at Xin Ru from every angle.

-Do I know you? Xin Ru finally spoke out, as she turned her big eyes, looking into Wei Wei also which was also a pair of big eyes.

-I…don’t…think…so! Wei Wei shook back, trying to mislead Xin Ru that they never met before.

Xin Ru then sighed, accepted with the fact that she definitely never meet the young lady before, she may be just a resemble of someone she knows.

-Sorry! I just thought you were familiar! Xin Ru broke out and relaxed with a soft smile.

As seeing the other side was showing a friendly greeting, Wei Wei sighed: “Phew, thanks god she didn’t recognize me, since I dressed as a boy, yesterday!”

-Oh, that’s okay! Wei Wei replied back, forcing for a smile, while trying to convince herself that she was safe.

-Sorry for bumping into you like that! I’m Yang Xin Ru! Even know they just met in a very critical situation, but Xin Ru somehow felt very close and friendly to the young lady.

-Hi! Yan Cu niang! I’m Zhao Wei Wei! She replied to the new strange friend of her.

-Oh! Just call me Xin Ru..

-Okay! Then you can call me Wei Wei!

They ladies found themselves laughing in silliness to each other in a while, as Wei Wei was the first one to realized that she need to break free.

But Xin Ru was still staying there, looking so faithfully at her and smiling brightly showing her one side dimple. Wei Wei was a bit hesitated, but she had to say it.

-Xin Ru, nice to meet you, but I got to go now! Some one is waiting for me!

-Yeah! Me too, my family is still at the inn! Xin Ru cried out.

-Okay! Nice meeting you! Wei Wei quickly said good bye, but as she about to make the move for release, Xin Ru suddenly called back.

-Wah! Wei Wei, will I see you again?!

-Yeah! If fate will bring our distance closer! Wei Wei cried out and quickly she ran straight to the bank, hoping for Xin Ru not to follow her.

=====================================================

-Gosh! People outside the city just getting weirder and weirder, if I didn’t find a way to get away from that Smiley Xin Ru, my face would be just like a funny clown. Wei Wei was mumbling to herself, when she felt a white figure was walking straight at her, but as experiences leaded to the quick reaction, this time she paused back, and look up, preventing another bumping incident for her….Aiyah! What have you been doing in here, I thought, you killed the bank manager to get money! Wei Wei spoke out, mockingly at his unattended attitude.

White Dragon just ignored, it now was a normal habit for him, as he quickly walked passed her, and called out over his back.

-Let’s go!

Wei Wei was never pleased with the man’s icy acts. But if only a fire stick would warm him up, she surely will have a try on him. But unfortunately, White Dragon, was just too frozen, beyond ice. He may needs something more than fire.

=======================================================

Xin Ru happily rushed into the inn, her exciting movement was quickly caught by a pair of sharp eyes of a another young lady, sitting at one side of the staircase. Xin Ru was looking around for someone for retell her new story to. And finally her first victim appeared.

-Er Ge! She raised over to Chi Lam, who was walking down the stair, with the intention of looking for her.

-Xin Ru! Where have you been all morning?! Tia and Niang with da ge are waiting for you, we have to go soon! Chi Lam, rushed out, while grabbing on his sister’s hand and started pulling her up the stair, but Xin Ru quickly protested back, as she straggling with her brother’s grip, and at the end, she managed to pull him backward with her.

-Wait! Er Ge! Listen, I want you to tell you about this new friend I just met, her name is Wei Wei, and she look so…familiar…While Xin Ru was rushing out her quick speed, Chi Lam had to put up his hand and made a stop sign for his sister.

-Alright! You can tell me later, right now! We have to get back with da ge, or we’ll be late in catching White Dragon!

At the word “White Dragon” been released, it immediately caught on interested attentions from two other person, whom were sitting at both two sides of the staircase, and had been listening to the conversation of the Yang siblings.

One listener on the right was familiar, he was no other then the Lin customer who Xin Ru caught sight of him playing on the flute lastnight. And the other listener was in the left, the young delegated lady, which later know as the name of Fan Bing Bing. She showed more interested in the Yang’s family as her eyes still followed on Xin Ru and Chi Lam, even after they walked up to the stair.


Chapter 7

-Shao ye, I am so sorry that I lost track of White Dragon, and now I had no idea where he and Xiao jie are! The servant shakily brought back the news of the broken plan as he watched for the young master to turn hot, and indeed he did very quickly.

-How useless are you? Qi Long yelled out, slamming his fist on to the arm of his chair…I gave you such a simply task, that was to follow behind White Dragon to see how he treated Zhao Xiao Jie. And now just more than one week and you came back reporting to me that you’ve lost their track.

The servant got stuck on finding a good explanation, he had tried his best, but seemed like White Dragon had noticed that he been followed. So when he was fighting with the Yang, he cleverly used the smoke technique so he could escape from both enemies, the Yangs and Qi Long’s followers.

-Rubbish! You can’t done your job properly and now you’re coming on with a most ridiculous idea ever! Qi Long shouted out, despised the excuse, as he quick stormed his heavy step over, readily to pick up the servant and threw him out of the door.

But before the young master could rage on with his anger toward to unsuccessful servant, he was stopped by his father, who was entering in the room, saw the situation, and quickly yelled out to caught back his hot tempered son.

-Qi Long! What are you doing? Wu Ye spoke out in his deep calming voice, but contained a certain strong power as Qi Long reluctantly turned away from his anger intention before and walked toward to greet his father.

-Father! That reckless servant deserved to be punished! Qi Long rebutted after the greeting. But Wu Ye was even a bigger tiger. He rises his eyebrows looking sharply to his young thoughtless son.

-We are here to plan on the big issue for the Manchurian, not because of your ridiculous love life. So would you please stop concentrating on the Zhao. I accepted for you to bring her here, only if you can concentrate on your study.

Qi Long was not happy with the pouring scold that his father put on him. But as a son, he had no right to fight back. So Wu Ye quickly dismissed the servant, as he turned back to look at the grumpy face of his only son. Suddenly he broke out in pearl of laughter.

-My boy, don’t be so snobby! A gentleman doesn’t mind a little thing! You better think for our plan. And by the way, I had obtained a new Kung Fu master for you!

-But father! My skill is perfect I don’t need anymore teacher.! Qi Long fought back with his wills.

-Rubbish! Wu Ye shouted back, making Qi Long smitten as the sign of his father was raising hot…One high mountain, there always be another higher one! You never say you’re prefect, you have to always practice. Plus I think you will like this one. He them turned to the door and called out…. Tao Kui come out to greet Shao ye!

Qi Long turned his curious view to the door where his father was looking at. A short while later a figure walked in.

-Tao Kui greeted Wu da ye, Wu shao ye! Said the new man in an uneven loosen tone.

Qi Long took back a few steps with shock looking at the most horrible figure he never see before, the small man bending down with a big hump on his back. On his nasty face, half of the left cheek was almost been torn apart, leaving a big hard looking plump. Added to that with the dark custom he was wearing, the messy hair with that cheeky tone. Qi Long couldn’t understand why his father would hire such a dreadful looking person to be his teacher.

=======================================

Coming back to White Dragon and Wei Wei, after they left the new town, the two continued in the forest to get to Huan Zhou like as mentioned. White Dragon was normally wore his Dragon Sword behind his back, as his two arms rounded in the front, he just keep walking straight forward without checking over his back for her.

Wei Wei again felt that she been ignored as then all the symptoms began to show. She walked uncomfortably, eyes glancing on sharply behind him, occasionally she put out all different silly faces to show her annoying to the person in front.

Suddenly then, action about to take place, as two black shadows appeared from their back. White Dragon immediately took the notice, as he grabbed on Wei Wei’s hand with his left arm while with the useful right arm, he reached to the back and pulled out his sword from its cover. As the expert in fighting, White Dragon took every caution look at the two strange figures whom were spinning their way toward him and Wei Wei. In no time, the two black figures were catching up, as a sword fight quickly started. They took no hesitation on attacking strongly at White Dragon.

Wei Wei kept her body hidden carefully behind his back, as every time he moved to left or right, she had to follow. Her heart began to beat faster in to dangerous area, but she still felt quiet protective when his hand was holding tightly on her hand.

But everything does not always go the smooth way, as the two shadow appeared clearly to be powerful, ofcouse they were not yet to be compare with the number one killer. But with him, while trying to fight with one arm he also had to watch out for the little person behind his back. That surely was a big disadvantaged for White Dragon, but never the least he still tried to make his move as steady as possible, and pointed his sword directly as much as he can.

Eventually, one of the men noticed the tension White Dragon had for the little girl standing beside him. As a cheeky attack plan, he took his sword to the fight, aiming its straight at White Dragon left hand, where he was holding on to Wei Wei. Forcedly White Dragon had to took back his left hand for the defendant move, but to his unawareness, the attacker had quickly picked up Wei Wei and flied off to the distance, with only Wei Wei scaring voice echoed back;

-White Dragon, help me! Help me!…

When White Dragon was just about to go after the black man who took away Wei Wei, but he too was attacked again by the left over black figure. Reluctantly, he had to stay back to finish the fight. But this time, with both arms were now freely to move, adding in with his anger and determination in wanting to look for Wei Wei. White Dragon fought extremely well in a different pace, and in no time the left over black figure dropped dead on the ground, when the quick flashed from the Dragon Sword passed over. After prevailed the attacker, White Dragon immediately rushed his way to the smoky air and using the best level of his kung fu, he was eager to find out where had Wei Wei been taken to.

========================================

-Let me go, you stupid bastard! You cheeky old pig, Let me go! Wei Wei tried to twist her body as much as possible, creating a difficulty for the black figure who was carrying her body on his shoulder.

-Let me go! Do you hear me, I demanded you to let me go! She continued yelling out louder from his back, and in the rushing moment, Wei Wei looked still with a quick force, she opened her jaw and gave him a big bite on the back shoulder.

The man gave out a painful cry, and quickly threw Wei Wei body to the ground, as he turned in mad anger, looking down at her daringly.

-You stupid bitchy girl! How dare you bite me, I had to bitten to up in pieces.

Wei Wei was thrown hardly to the ground, as she still struggling between the pains and gathering her strength to stand up. But the man quickly rush over as he picked up her face and gave to it a big slap which leave the red finger’s marks on one side of her cheek.

-Ouch! Wei Wei cried out on receiving the slap, but as her madness also gone over the limited, she used her two legs and pushed a big one on the man stomach.

Compared to the man’s strength her kick was like a little force as the man only lose his balance and fell soft on the ground. But at the same time his masked dropped off, leaving a sheepish face looking at Wei Wei with all the carving arousing inside as he finally spotted on her beauty.

-You little bitch! Can believe how can you be so pretty! Good, now da ye will enjoy you first and torture you later.!

With the first warning sign, and he quickly jumped forward to grabbed on Wei Wei’s body, who was trying to crawl out the danger zone. She was fast but not enough, as when the black man jumped in, he still managed to grab on her right sleeve, with a single forced, he pulled the thin sleeve backward, creating a long torn on her sleeve.

Wei Wei began to fear for her safety, as she looked around trying to find some help, to find his white image.

-White Dragon, where are you when I needed you? She cried while tried to crawl backward away from the man as much as possible.

-…Hah…the man paused back and gave out a snobby laugh. White Dragon now, may already be a dead body under my brother’s sword.

The man was cheering on too much, that when he looked back to her. Wei Wei had already got up and made the run from a distance.

-You bitch! Think you can get away that easy! He groaned, and in quick pick he pulled out a little dagger and aimed its side way on her running figure. In no hesitation he threw the small knife at the targeted point, stabbed right on her upper arm of her left side, just above her elbow.

Wei Wei received the sudden dagger from the back, she cried out a horrible pain, as her slim body began to lose its balance, and slowly slipping down. But in the moment she was falling, a quick white shadow flied through from the distance, he softly rounded his left arm around her waist, making the support and lift up her body above the ground with his powerful strength.

Wei Wei was well in conscious, but the injury surely brought a big painful shock to her. When viewing White Dragon had came, as he whipped her body up in his arm, Wei Wei quickly turned back forward and used her right hand hugged tightly on his neck, as she showed the fear of leaving him could engage herself to more danger. So there they stayed, with her right arm hugging tightly on his neck, her face was buried on his shoulder, as she was too scare to look at the man who just fired the weapons at her. White Dragon, would fell her shaky body against his, so to help her fell secured, he tightened on his arm around her waist, and softly he landed back to the ground, facing in anger with the attacker.

Without a single word, and not waiting for the other side to attack, White Dragon put out his sword into a full circle spin, creating a powerful wind-force. As the fulfill moment, he whipped his sword forward to the attacker, who couldn’t stand with the force, his black body quickly got taken away in mid air, flying backward, and finally slammed on to the big body of a tree, he was killed immediately.

Wei Wei was in pain, but tried not to show it much, as she only tighten her arm on his neck, and hidden her painful expression face on his shoulder, so he can not look at her. White Dragon again didn’t say anything, he still secured his gripped on her waist, and using his mastered skill, White Dragon once again lifted up Wei Wei in the air, and logically took her to a safer place.

===================================

After awhile, returning back to the new town. In the inn, the Yang had finally finished their packing, and was getting ready to pick up their houses and leave for the trip.

Xin Ru was the first one to come down, as she happily skipped back down the stair, suddenly she paused, looking at the young man at the counter.

-Er ge! She raised her hand waved to Chi Lam who was walking just behind her. On the recognising of his sister weird attitude, he just knew who was up to some thing. But still he stopped back beside Xin Ru as eyes followed to the counter and met the young man who Xin Ru was pointing at.

-That’s the young guy, who blow the flute last night, Did you hear him ge! Xin Ru excitingly asked out, as her mind was pushing herself to go forward and make friend with the talented man in music.

-Yes, I heard, but it can’t be him! Chi Lam cried out with disbelieved.

-Aiyah, why can’t you ever listen to me! Come down! Xin Ru was so sure with her answer, but seeing her brother kept on ignoring her word. So she just had to pull him downstairs and raced quickly toward to young man.

Master Lin just finished paying for his bill, as he about to take the leave out the market, when he heard a soft female voice, yelling out for his title.

-Lin Cung Zi, Ling Cung Zi!

-Aiyah, Xin Ru what are you trying to do, we don’t know who is that guy! Chi Lam reluctantly fought, but surprisingly, Xin Ru was strength was so strong in determine as he couldn’t stop her in time.

The young male with surname, Xin Ru called as Lin, wondering turned back, as he watched in fury as the young lady who was running toward him, and pulling with her a young charming man.

Finally Xin Ru caught up, as she tried to catch up her short breath, and greet the new friend to be of her.

-Hi! I’m Yang Xin Ru, I just wondering were you the person who played the flute lastnight.

Lin master watched on the young lady with a bright beauty in amusement, but he tried not to laugh as her naivetes. Formally, he put out his hand together and bow as to show the respect.

-Please don’t mind me! I am Lin Chi Yong, yes I played the flute lastnight, if I accidentally had disturb your time, please forgive me.

-Nah! You didn’t I liked you’re the music you played very much, so haunting and mysterious! Xin Ru quickly gave out to compliment, as she then turned around, and gave a light slap by her brother’s shoulder. See I told you I was right!

Lin Chi Yong then managed to take his eyes off Xin Ru, and turned in curious to Chi Lam. Knowing himself had been explored, Chi Lam politely stepped forward and introduced himself.

-I am Yang Chi Lam, Nice to meet you Lin Cung Zi!

The three got to know each other very quick, and also said good bye very quickly, as Chi Yong explained that he had something very important to do now!

But the moment Chi Yong walked out, Yang da ye, Yang Fu Ren and Yang Chi Shing also came down, and the Yang once again took off to find White Dragon.

=======================================

But left over in one of the little room from the top floor of the inn. A young lady was still stayed back in her room. She was sitting crossed leg on the bed, eyes closing, she was clearing her mind so she can use you minding communication skill to talk with her master, even if he away from her in a far distance.

-“Fan Bing, your two brothers had fail in stealing the Snow Dragon Sword, they were killed by White Dragon so now I left with all the hope on you, don’t fail me!” As the last word fade out, Fan Bing also opened her eyes.

-Shi fu, I won’t disappoint you! She whispered out in full determine, and began to come down from the bed.

Slowly, she made her soft steps to the widow, looking downward she could she the sign of the Yang leaving from the inn. Suddenly a cheeky smile appeared on her pointed face, as she laid and interesting eyes on the joyful Xin Ru and slowly pasted over to the gentleman looks of Chi Shing, Chi Lam and Xin Ru’s eldest brother.


Chapter 8

After an afternoon filled with action, the evening flew by smoothly. By a small water creek, White Dragon was washing the blood stained out of the white cloth and slowly he turned back the attention to the injured Wei Wei. The dagger had been taken out from her upper left arm, thankfully it was not a deep cut, but White Dragon had to clean up the wound before he could apply the medicine and cover it.

Earlier he had refused to undo her cuff and pull up her sleeve, to make the process easier. Instead, White dragon used the cut, which was already made by the dagger, and torn it out into a more opened cut, so he can clean the wound through it.

Wei Wei was surely not very comfortable, especially with one arm was hurt. The wound just stink every time he touched it, but to act in strong, she tried her best not to show the pains. But White Dragon was not very helpful, ofcouse he’s not, he never had taken care of anyone before. So as he placed the cloth on her arm, he just rubbed it hardly, carelessly. Finally she couldn’t hold it anymore, but to yell out.

-It’s my arm you’re holding, not a pig’s leg, can’t you be more gently, ouch!

He looked up annoyingly upon hearing her complain. How can he know how to be gently, when most of his life, he was taught to be tough. But reluctantly, he had to lighten his touch, and slowly clean up her wound.

But Wei Wei was not pleased yet, seeing all the red blood was coming out, added with her favorite custom now had been damaged, she turned the blame on him.

-It’s all you fault! She yelled down, looking at him savagely. Because you’ve refused to teach me Kung fu, I told you before, anything happen to me, you’re going to take responsible for it! See. Zhao Wei Wei I, from small till when I matured, never there is a little scar on my body and now you made my arm like that. You have you paid back for me, you heart-less person!. She just kept on pouring out her anger, but White dragon kept acting as normal, he’s only concentrate on her wound, and it was like he didn’t hear anything from her. And that turned Wei Wei even madder, she tried to move but couldn’t.

White dragon once finished cleaning up the wound, he pulled out from his bell a little piece of folded paper, when opened out there were a special kind of white powder in it. But when he was about to sprinkle it on Wei Wei’s wound, she quickly yelled out.

-What are you doing? What’s that? She asked out furiously, looking at the powder on White Dragon’s hand.

-It will help you! He replied shortly, despairing whether she agreed or not, he just pulled out her arm, and sowed a little powder to cover the wound, he make sure it spread out evenly, and then, used a clean dried cloth, and started to bandage her wound carefully.

As when everything was done, he calmly walked over to the water and started washing his hand. Wei Wei was still observing at her wound, wondering if he really applied on the correct medicine or was he just making it worst, but she had to admit that the pain had decreased tremendously.

-I think it will be better if you keep on disguising as a male! Atleast it will be less attraction! That was the longest sentence he ever spoken so far, while making his way up from the creek.

-What’s the different! Wei Wei was still in prefect form to rebut. I still don’t know how to defend myself! Looking at him mockingly, she showed to be in a full-prepared mode to verbally fight with White Dragon, at any time.

White Dragon glanced pasted her angry expression, he did show much interest in the fight, so reluctantly picked up his sword, tighten it on his back and began to walked forward into the forest, despairing the injured Wei Wei to make her way up by herself to follow him.

-I will show you a few self-defense moves when you recover! Speaking to her over his shoulder, he never thought he would have to say it, but there was no other choice.

But Wei Wei on the other hand developed a delightful smile, forgetting about her injured arm, she raced forward to catch up with him.

-Really? She asked in amazed looking at his face…Hahahahaha….She laughed out of joy and victory…Finally you have to listen to me! As if her wounded arm had fully recovered, Wei Wei skipped her steps happily to the front, leaving White Dragon walking behind, watching at her in wonder. At first he knitted his eyes brow together watching at her silly action, but if you look carefully, there was actually a very little smile on his lips. Wei Wei was really joyful, she even made the number one kill, cold-blooded, heartless person to giggle.

=================================

The Yang family moved on forward to the forest, hoping on any tracks they could find to follow White Dragon. Everybody were always in full cautious, well, almost everybody, expected for the playful Xin Ru.

She kept running from back to front and front to back. One minute was telling her mother, about the new friend Wei Wei that she met at the market. Another minute she was over her father side, describing to him, about Lin Chi Yong and his haunting melody of the flute. And after a quick second, she was walking in the middle between her two older brothers, asking them how did they think about the cute, charming boy, that they met with White Dragon before, because she really adored him.

It was a cry for help that stopped on Xin Ru long speech, as the family of four, turned around to their back, on seeing a young girl just felt of her house, and was on the ground in pain.

By the order of his father, Chi Shing was the first one to rush over, and helped the injured person.

-Cu Niang, are you alright? He asked out while giving a hand to held her up from the ground.

-Xie xie, cung zi! The lady softly spoke out the thank you, as she turned to look in his eyes. In a flash of the moment, Chi Shing’s heart was captured, and locked up in her eyes. He froze still while watching at the beauty he never witness before, adding to it was the reaction from the most poisoned perfume, that could make any male species fall her the moment the sensed it. It was one of the magic tricks of Fan Bing.

By this time, Xin Ru with Chi Lam had caught up, followed by their eager parents, wanting to find out what went wrong.

-Cu Niang, are you alright? What your name! As normal, Xin Ru always was the first one to start the conversation.

-My name is Fan Bing Bing. I’m on the way looking for someone, but because my house riding skill is very poor, that while when I reached to here, I couldn’t control the horse anymore and felt! Fan Bing used her soft smoothing voice, to aim at the kind hearts of the four people from the Yang.

-Nice to meet you Fan Cu Niang. My name is Yang Xin Ru, that is my eldest brother, Yang Chi Shing, my second older brother Yang Chi Lam, and our parents. Chi Lam was too slow on covering Xin Ru mouth, when she carelessly, just reviewed themselves in front of the strangers.

By now both Yang Lao ye and Yang Ren fu was approached closer to Fan Bing.

-Fan cu niang! Why much a weakness girl like you, be traveling alone in the forest, when you can’t control your own horse! Yang Fu Ren was out, while watching at Fan Bing’s reaction, to see if there was any tricks been play.

-Answer you Yang Fu Ren, I’m on the run from an evil person, he liked my father, and wanted to take me as his concubine. That’s way I have to get on the horse and ran at far as I can, but unfortunate that I’m just a very weak girl, can’t cough if everything by myself. And now I even made myself injured. Fan Bing spoke out so steadily as if she been memorizing every single words. Added to the traumatic scene, she tried to move around to show that her left ankle had been injured.

-Tia, niang! Fan Cu niang, is in need for help, plus she is injured, why don’t we let her come with us for now, or until she well again! Chi Shing finally spoke out what he Fan Bing wanted him to say.

Yang fu ren gave an questioning look to her husband, but as they turned back to observed on Fan Bing again, they only see a poor little girl, who in a very difficulty situation, and was needed help. Add to that, Xin Ru had taken side with her eldest brother, as she also looking forward to have a friend joining in with her.

So finally the Yang family accepted Fan Bing. So her planned had first its first step, But why must she need to come with the Yang, and who was she really looking for?

=====================================

After so many incident of attackers coming from no where. White Dragon was force to delay their trip to Huan Zhou, as Wei Wei had to recover from her wound, and also White Dragon also started to teach her a few basic steps of martial arts.

Being natural bright and intelligent, plus with the basic theory of martial art that she once read from her brother’s room. Wei Wei blended in the action very quickly.

The only disadvantage for her was not, she didn’t have any real weapon to practice with. Everyday, it would only be a long branch from the tree. Not because White Dragon didn’t let her to use his sword, but because every time, she started touching to the sword, there was a cold electric shock that went through her body, forcing her to let it go.

Day by day, night through night, finally Wei Wei’s arm was also fully recover as she also began to put out a few quick move from the basic learning that she been gathering everyday.

It was a mid-month night, as the moon became prefect round and bright, shining it light through the cave where White Dragon and Wei Wei was resting, disturbing everyone sleep, as Wei Wei annoyingly stood up, and walked out to the open air, watching at the full moon. White Dragon also awoke, seeing it was acting stranger then usual, normally after a long practicing day, she would drop dead in deep sleep by the night time. Unlike tonight,

Wei Wei stood still watching at the bright moon, as with she was carrying a tons of fixes emotion. Finally she gave out a big frowned, and turned back inside, on the way walking back she saw White Dragon was watching at her.

-Why aren’t you sleep? She asked out, looking at him with her big shining eyes wide opened.

But before White Dragon could open this mouth to reply, she quickly rushed over to where he was sitting and cut in.

-You can’t sleep? How about we talk? Wei Wei asked out, almost begging him.

Hesitantly White Dragon nodded. Being side by side for nearly a month, even how much he try to ignore, she had already become a friend to him, a very strange friend.

White Dragon would no longer ignore Wei Wei even know he still didn’t say much. But in return, Wei Wei had understood him more, she had stop demanding on him to listen to her. But instead she tried to make him talk, to be more friendly, cause she can see there was a good side, a warm blood in the number killer.

On seeing White Dragon had agreed to listen to her, Wei Wei broke out a cheerful smile, as she squashed down, crossing her legs, and sat opposite to White Dragon.

-Do you know why I can’t sleep tonight. I miss my parent. Usually in every full moon night, tia and niang, would come in my room, and listen to be playing the qwen (that music instrument, forgive me if the spelling is wrong!)

White Dragon raised his eyebrows in surprised.

-You can play…He asked..

-Ofcouse, I can…She cut in…I’m a xiao jie, at least I have to know something that a formal lady suppose to know. But now I don’t get to play it anymore.

White Dragon lower his eyes, sometimes he suddenly felt regret for excepted the offer, just like now. But Wei Wei was not aware of it, she quickly moved on and turned to a more exciting pace, as she turned and wave back White Dragon tension.

-Have you ever been loved? She asked curiously, when White Dragon looked up at her in dazed, he was confused on how to answer.

-What about you? Have you been loved? He returned back the question.

-Ofcouse I had! Wei Wei cried out, that caught White Dragon to listen on furiously. My parents loved me, my brother loved me. And I loved them back! What about you, your family!

White Dragon felt uncomfortable on her innocent question, he faced out and looked up the bright moon, gave out a frown and began.

-My mother died when I was just born, my father was murdered five years ago. I have no other relatives.

Wei Wei placed on him a sorrow look, as she bit on her lower lip, regretting for asking the question.

-What is you name? She finally asked, the question that she wanted to know long time ago.

White Dragon was starlet, as he turned his eyes searching through her eyes. What was she trying to play with him. Very long ago, no one had ever ask for his name, they referred him as White Dragon, the number one killer. But no one had bother or as nosy as her to find out everything.

He was frustrating on whether to continue on the conversation or not, when Wei Wei gave in a push.

-Come on, White Dragon couldn’t be your natural name, I like to know your name. She sounded to faithful and honest as White Dragon finally persuaded.

-You Pen! He whispered out.

-You Pen! She repeated in curious. That a very nice name better then White dragon, okay from now I will call you You Pen Okay! You Pen.

“You Pen” the two words coming out from her tone was so soft so elegant, as White Dragon never thought his name sound so sweat until when he heard it out from her. Since taking on the title of the number one killer, he had thought that no one would ever address him my name ever again. But now Wei Wei was there with him, was there to brought back the moral feelings that he thought he had lost.

Suddenly, she stood up, and pulled him to follow her.

-You Pen, I want to practice, come with me!

They both ran to the forest just outside, Wei Wei race over to break down a branch stick, and under the moon light she started practicing the steps of the sword’s movement that White Dragon had been showing to her.

Never that she aware, White Dragon was watching on her with full admiration. Looking on her slim shadow moving vastly against the wind speed, it was a fascinating sight that he had never seen before. And there he grinned, a smile that had died out many years before now suddenly found it ways back on the face of the heartless killer. It was a smile that specially relived for Wei Wei and because of Wei Wei.


Chapter 9

Wei Wei and White Dragon finally made progress on the continuation of their trip to Huan Zhou. Between the two, now was a more closer feeling, as they grown out of the first strange and uncomfortable stage. They now liked friends and later may be more than that.

-You Pen! How long do we have, to get to Huan Zhou! Wei Wei was walking at the front most of the time, then suddenly turned back and asked out the questions.

-About 10 days! He replied, thinking how times flies, it was nearly two months, since the day he took Wei Wei away, also Qi Long must be anxious in waiting, since the normal time to get from the City to Huan Zhou was about a month.

On hearing the answered, Wei Wei sighed to herself quietly. Truly she was not at all looking forward to get to Huan Zhou. Because by the time she get there, her life will automatically be put in the chained lock again.

White Dragon was watching on her disappointment from behind. He understood, that Wei Wei was unwilling to go to Huan Zhou and be marry with Qi Long. White Dragon himself was experiencing a similar resistant feeling, but different from her, he just reluctant on the thought of not having Wei Wei beside him, just like these days.

“WHITE DRAGON! STOP!” Suddenly a voice called out his name from the behind as both White Dragon and Wei Wei turned back to take a view at the new attacker. Wei Wei quickly moved a stepped downward, standing behind him, while White Dragon spread out his arm, waiting in a ready position.

The new figure from behind quickly flew forward, as he did a spin up in the air, behind landing on the ground, pointing his sabre aiming at White Dragon.

-I finally found you, now I can revenge for the Lin family! The new attacker spoke out, while preparing for the biggest fight that he had been practicing during the year.

White Dragon took a full look at the stranger in confusion, he left his mind does the searching for a few minutes, before turning upward and replied.

-I had not killed anyone in the Lin family!

-Liar! My grandfather Lin Fang, was killed by your sword, now Lin Chi Yong I will take the revenge!

Not waiting for White Dragon to answer back, Chi Yong quickly lifted his body forward and started attacking White Dragon in a strong pace. Wei Wei quickly escaped herself to one side, not wanting to get in the way of White Dragon, incase it may cause him to lose attention again.

Lin Chi Yong brought out the Sabre’s skill that he been learning almost all of his life, now with that, he tried the best to take White Dragon’s life. But it was never easy, especially when he was fighting with the number one killer, against one of the most powerful weapon, the Dragon Sword. Chi Yong did not have a lot of chance in winning.

The fight when on for a few more minutes, until Chi Yong slowly weaken on his strength, White Dragon took the chance and left out one of his greatest kick, that Chi Yong had to felt down to the ground. By the time he was trying to get up, only to find that the Dragon Sword, was already pointed at his neckline.

-Just kill me now, I excepted being defeated. Chi Yong cried out bravely while closed his eyes, waiting for the death.

Wei Wei quickly ran over to White Dragon’s side, before she could tell him not to do it. He was like a reader to her mind, turning over, he gave her a slight nod, indicating that he knew what to do.

As a quick flash, White Dragon rounded his sword put in the air, removed it from Chi Yong and put back to the cover.

-Just go! He demanded, as Chi Yong turned his stunning eyes looking in confuse…But I’m telling you now, I didn’t kill anyone who belonged to the Lin family, so don’t come and ask revenge on me.

Chi Yong was in his disbelieving stage, when the number one killer refused to take his life. Slowly he gathered his strength to stand up, but White Dragon was now only a white shadow from a distance, walking beside with another young male.

=======================================

-Sorry shao ye, we still haven’t manage to track down on White Dragon with…

Before the servant could finish his report, “Boop” a big thunder slap was already came down, striking hard on his face, as the dropped down in fear to the ground.

-Useless, what a bunch of useless you all are. Qi Long raged out between his teeth, thinking at the thought of the time was almost 2 months, yet there were no sign of either Wei Wei or White Dragon in Huan Zhou.

Despair how sure he was before when asking White Dragon for the job, now he began to receive the similar fear that he been carrying to other males. The fear of losing the one he loved to someone else. And he would blame himself forever if that person turn out to be White Dragon.

-Get out for me! I want you to go and find them as soon as possible. He slammed the teacup to the servant who was kneeling on the floor, by the shouting and the smashing, the servant curled up himself and crawled outside as quick as possible.

The horrified shadow of the poor servant just disappeared, the sign of the humpback Tao Kui started to appear as he slowly walked his uneven steps to where Qi Long was sitting on fire.

-Shao ye, why must you be so hot? The strange looking Tao Kui asked out in his sheepish tone. But Qi Long didn’t show much interested, he waved his hand quickly telling Tao Kui to go out, but the old teacher kept on continue…Nothing is impossible shao ye, don’t be to depress, water cane make fire!

Qi Long irritatingly looked up, as he was thinking the ugly man had gone mad.

-Are you out of your mind how can water lighted a fire. Just get out, don’t stand there and annoy me!

Despised on the disbelieving and rule attitude from the young master, Tao Kui kept on approaching closer, he pulled out a piece of paper from his sleeve, held up the tea cup on the table and started pouring the water on to the paper in his hand.

Qi Long reluctantly looked on tiredly, but in a quick second later, his eye widened in shock looking at the wetted piece of paper on Tao Kui’s hand slowly fling to a flame of fire. As it came to caution in Qi Long, he wonder who really is the man that his father just hired as

====================================

Coming back to the Huan Zhou trip, Wei Wei and White Dragon had move on in a quicker pace but either of them was urging to get to Huan Zhou. Occasional, they would just paused back for constant rest or for Wei Wei have to chance to practice on her skill. She surely showed a very quick speed in learning, on only a few weeks, yet she managed to perform smoothly with all the basic steps in defending.

They settle down early beside a waterfall creek, today Wei Wei was practicing the skill in balancing, standing on a big slippery body of a tree which laid across the small creek like a bridge. She started to perform the step, trying the best to stable on the top.

White Dragon not standing very far away, his eyes was more watching at her glowing beauty in the male custom, rather then observed at her moves as he suppose to.

Suddenly Wei Wei noticed she foot had stepped in the wrong place, in a blink of an eye later, she let out a terrifying cry, as her body went spinning slipping downward from the log. As quick as he was alerted, White Dragon jumped up on the log, spreading out his strong steady arm to grab back her shaking hand. Used his strength, he pulled her arms toward as Wei Wei then was saved from falling, her body received the pull from White Dragon, in a reaction, she went spinning backward and finally land fitly in his opened secured arm.

Both turned to looked at each other in shock at puzzle, it was their first time staying so close together. Even known they broke free from each other a second after, as White Dragon quickly jumped down from the log walking away feeling confusion. While Wei Wei found her balance, turning her face away, she grinned in shyness. Wondering just what was that warm feeling that just aroused in her.

======================================

Fall night invading the scene creating the special puzzle background for sunset sky. White Dragon and Wei Wei still gathered for their rest beside the waterfall, admiring at captivating scenery, they camped outside beside the fire.

Wei Wei rested her warm heated hand on her cheek, looking at the water flow, suddenly she turned back to White Dragon at behind in curious.

-Can you hear the water?

He turned in the same curious look at her, pausing back for the moment, White Dragon tried to develop on his hearing sense.

-I can hear its running? He replied with a query look. Wei Wei shook her head slightly, as she stood up from her seat and walked closer to settle beside him.

-No not that! Its singing, can you hear the rhythm! Wei Wei urged on for White Dragon to agree, while he tried even harder to take his imagination to the same stage as her.

Wei Wei turned her look her to afar, as dreamily she to confide.

-You know I once thought, it must be really nice to live like a drop of water, you can go anywhere, without limitation on what do can do!

White dragon quietly watched the smile blossom on her rosy lips. But thinking back of her sentence he frowned and replied.

-Living with no direction, no aiming is not that all great! Some times it could cause a lot of trouble! He sighed out, reflecting with his own life, the one with no goal no aiming for the bright future.

She glanced over to him with a look of sympathy. Over these days together, she found White Dragon was not as evil and cruel like other people claimed him to be when they placed on him the nickname of “the heartless killer”. Her eyes soften just like her voice as she put out another curious question for him.

-You Pen! Why did you…um…She suddenly found it very hard to put out the question, as White Dragon gazed at her in realization as she finished of the sentence.

-(Why did you) becomes a killer? He laughed bitterly for his life and slowly reviewed.
My mother was robbed and killed when I was just a small kid. My father was then murder with no reason, he died in my arms when I was a teenager. Then my closest friend, the only friend that I had also murder, he gave he the Dragon Sword before he died and ask me to revenge. Not to mention about my Kung Fu master. Who was burned to death in his own home, just because he refused to take the mean son from a wealthy family to be his pupil. So they killed him.

Wei Wei gasped in amazed, she suddenly felt pity for White Dragon, life must be very hard on him, that’s lead him to choice an occupation, which is so nasty by the meaning. He turned and accepted her sympathy look, and continued on.

-Since then, I had no relative, I began to see life is very unfair and cruelty. The good force had over come by the bad one. So as a thought I just destroy all the bad. White Dragon suddenly paused, he was so confusion with himself. Since long ago he had lost trust in people, and never want to communicate about his own story with anyone, yet now under the moonlight, he was practically telling Wei Wei everything about himself.

Wei Wei did not noticed the confusion that carried on his face, she just thought he need to be lighten up. So shifting a step closer, she broke out a cheerful attractive smile, changing to atmosphere.

-You right! Life is too much cruelty, so that’s why we don’t need to worry about it! That’s why she must entertain ourselves. Trained our brain to be cheerful rather then sad. To proven her point, she moved her face in front of his look, smiling cheekily with a few different silly faces.

White Dragon was thankfully for the entertainment that she was giving him, he not use to laugh, but seeing her silly action, he had to let out a little grin, but quick tried to cover it.

-Nothing fun to laugh about! He rejected, turning the other way so she could not break in his determination.

-Ofcouse there are a lot of fun to laugh and be happy. Look at me, my parents said I’m a very happy person. She stood up again, and stepped in front of White Dragon, kneeled down before his face, forcing him to look at her.

-And you know what? She continued, pulling his body closer by the sleeve…And you look much more charming when you laugh as well. So can you smile for me.? She blinked her innocent eyes constantly, as White Dragon tried to look away in amusement, but as he struggle to be cool, finally a little grin appeared, brighten up his dazzling look. Hahahah…Wei Wei yelled out, laughing with victory…See I’m a laughter maker, You Pen I will try my best to make to laugh, because you look so better! Later if you found a nice lady falling for your smile, remember to thanks me.!

White dragon couldn’t deny it anymore as he spread out a strong giggle upon for delighted feature. Wei Wei too was so prove with herself in turning a fun side back in to a person whom she used to name cold-blooded.

They both were sharing a great laugh with each other, when suddenly everything stopped as they found each other eyes were watching on deeply into their.
All of a sudden, they both started dreaming, a similar dream. More correctly it was just an image an illusion that abruptly appeared in both of there eyes. It was the picture of him and her, walking together by the waterfall, arm in arm. Both was smiling, the happiness in love that showed by their glistening grin when everytime they turned to look at each other.

It felt like the world had stop, the time had paused, when White Dragon and Wei Wei, seriously looked on each other with contended. At first it was confusion, frustration then not long after led to acceptation. A special spiral bonding suddenly aroused, with a special force pushing, White Dragon found himself was moving closer to her.

Wei Wei watched on, as body stepped down clearer, a sudden warm that ran from her heart and spread all over her body, she gasped out for more air, but losing the nerve to speak. When his fingers gently reached out to her chin, Wei Wei closed her eyes, as she felt his fingers were pushing her face up. Her heart suddenly missed a beat as she sensed White Dragon’s breath was just right in front of her. She relaxed in willingness, mentally prepare and waiting for her first intimate moment.

White Dragon was hypnotized by her beauty, by her native attitude. He couldn’t stop himself from moving in closer, wanting to show her something that he been keeping away him his heart. The closer his get, the more yearning his heart become, it was pushing for that first touch to create a stable bonding link for the two hearts which shared the same beats.

He also closed his eyes, as the moment their nose almost touched, when White Dragon closely going to place his kiss on her lips.

Then, they could hear noise moving from the bushes. Both of them broke snapped out from the intimate moment, and turned their caution to where the noise was coming from.

-Who is it? Wei Wei cried out, as she suddenly clutched on to White Dragon’s arm. Using his sharp sense in exaction, he picked up a small stone nearby with his by fingers, and threw it quickly at the moving bush.

“Ouch” A voice cried out in pain, as Wei Wei quickly rushed over and pull out the little person from the bush.


Chapter 10

White Dragon closely going to place his kiss on her lips.

Then, disruptively they heard noise moving from the bushes. Both of them snapped out from the intimate moment, and turned their caution to where the noise was coming from.

-Who is it? Wei Wei cried out, as she suddenly clutched on to White Dragon’s arm. Using his sharp sense in exaction, he picked up a small stone nearby with his fingers and threw it quickly at the moving bush.

“Ouch” A voice cried out in pain, as Wei Wei quickly rushed over and pulled out the little person from the bush.

-Hah, you little rat! Why must I catch you again?

White Dragon looked on interestedly as seeing Wei Wei had just pulled out a little teenager boy from the bush.

-Ouch, ouch…The little boy gave a pity cry as Wei Wei held on tighter by his left ear…Xiao Jie, can you please spare me! I know I was wrong for interrupted in your intimated moment.. But..

-Shut up! Wei Wei cut abruptly, feeling her cheeks were raising hot, with the embarrassed she turned her anger on the little boy by slapping him on his cheek. Let me ask you question, don’t say anything when you’re haven’t been ask. Get it!

The boy was taken back by the sudden slap, noticing himself in a weaker position so quickly he put his hand up to cover his month as a sign of obeying while Wei Wei kept pulling outside, they started to approach to where White Dragon was watching in fury.

-Do you know him? He asked out his curious as the moment Wei Wei came closer.

-You can consider that! She shiftily answered, when the little boy was still whispered out in pains under her grab…Do you know this is the cheeky rat that I met in the market, outside the bank. He forge to be disabling to he can beg for money, then when I caught him, he even pushed me back.

-Xiao Jie, I didn’t mean to you forced me to do it! The little boy cried out for his defended.

-Shut up! She quickly scored back at him, and so he immediately stopped.

Among all the days spending together, this was the first time that White Dragon experienced the temper of Wei Wei. She surely can be very tough sometime. Looking at the poor boy suffering under her hasty anger, White Dragon couldn’t help it to let out a quiet grin.

Wei Wei wasn’t aware of his loving look on her, but the little saw it all.
-Xiao Jie! Why don’t we all do each other a favour? You just let me go and I will let you two get back to your treasure moment, hao bac bao (co duoc khong)?

Upon hearing the sheepish reminder, Wei Wei felt it again, one more time her face was blushing in heat, turning back the blame, she grabbed on one arm of the boy and twisted to his back.

“OUCH” He poor thing cried out from the torment.

-Do you believe that I could hang you upside down on a tree and torture to do death! She gave out the warning in full of cruelty.

==========================================

Back on the track of the five from the Yang family and Fan Bing Bing.

Still following behind White Dragon’s track the Yang family was still a distance behind. Speaking of Fan Bing Bing, she still acting covered her real face, but none of the people from the Rang family realised, that they were been used.

Everybody were resting by the riverside, Xin Ru was playing around with her parents, Chi Lam was busily feeding the houses. Chi Shing just came back from the hunting, he pasted over to Xin Ru a few fruits so she can spread them out for everyone. While he held back to a big juicy pear and quickly walked over to Fan Bing Bing, who was sitting by her side on a big stone rock, looking at the water.

-Fan cu niang (Co nuong)! Have some lunch! He kindly offered the pear to her, when Bing Bing turned over with one of her killing smile and took the fruit in her hand.

-Thank you Da cung zi (dai cong tu)! You are such a nice gentleman!

Chi Shing immediately felt himself just been lift up to the sky, upon hearing the nice compliment from the beauty, but during his hesitated reaction, Xin Ru already jumped in to stir up the pace.

-Fan cu niang, don’t get trick by my da ge! He’s hardly been nice to me his own sister, I wonder why he been acting so sweet to you! With the tease, Xin Ru cheekily glanced over a inquiry look to her brother, who was deeply drown in a pool of embarrassment.

-Xiao mei! Don’t talk non-sense! Chi Shing changed the pace and began to scold on his sister.

On the other hand Xin Ru was ready to hit back the ball, but as her eyes glanced back to the riverside, trying to look for her second brother for exact helps. Suddenly, her eyes paused, pacing on a figure just arrived at the other distance from where she was. The young man was bending by the waterside to wash his face, when Xin Ru finally recognised, she jumped out with joy and ran in one strike to the familiar person.

-Lin Cung Zi! We’ve met again! She cried, causing the attention from the rest of the family and Lin Chi Yong himself.

“Yang xiao jie!” He whispered in amazed, wondering how small the ground sometime is, and how easy for him to reunite with person he just met and adored.

Chi Lam was the closest to Xin Ru, on recognising of the new friend, he also happily joined with his sister, ran faster to Chi Yong’s side.

-Hah….Chi Yong! Xin Ru lift up in excitement, once she and her brother reached to Chi Yong…We see each other again, what a coincidence!

-Yes, Lin Cung Zi, what are you doing in the forest! For once in a lifetime, Chi Lam managed to put out the question before his sister.

-Yang cung zi, Yang cu niang, nice to met you again! Yes I didn’t expect to see you guys here, either! Chi Yong politely greeted as then he view another group of people was approaching to where he was standing.

Chi Lam and Xin Ru took a turn around, and happily returned back to Chi Yong, introducing the rest of their family and Fan Bing Bing.

-Lin cung zi, may we ask what brought you here? Yang Lao ye begin his finding with a young man that he found quite interested.

-Answer you Yang Lao ye, I am on the way taking the revenge for my family, I just had a slight duet with the killer, but unfortunately, my skill is still not strong enough to defeat him! Chi Yong had no hesitation and exclaiming his reason while the Yang family listened on closely.

-Who is your enemy? As normal, Xin Ru was the first one to jump in with the question.

Chi Yong took a moment of silent, before he looked up and spoke out with determined,

-White Dragon Sword!

Everybody together gasped out a surprising shock, including Fan Bing, who was not very interested in the story at first, until three words, White Dragon Sword caught her hearing.

=============================================

We left the Yang family and come back with Wei Wei with White Dragon and the little boy, who was now being punish for his big mouth. As Wei Wei kept with her warning, when the little boy kept talking, she will hang him upside down.

So now he was, feet tight together, hooked to a big branch up in a Gum tree. And his body was dipping downward, but not yet to touch the ground, in other words, he was hanging upside down in midair, trying out desperately for helps.

-Xiao jie, Da cu niang, da da cu niang! Please let me down, I promise I won’t say anything, promise! A begging plead for release.

-Oh yes, why do I still hear you talking now! Wei Wei threw back the reply, enjoying on the torturing of her greatest enemies, the one that made she fell in the middle of the busy market where she amused everybody.

White Dragon was standing in one side, he was wondering his the hanging was necessarily needed, but they both looked like suit with each other arrogant, so he let it go.

-Stupid boy, answer me do you stills making money from the innocent pocket with that cheeky pretending way of yours? Wei Wei began the questioning, swing around a small long branch in her hand as a wipe, preparing to strike down anytime.

-Aiyah, xiao jie, I don’t know what you’re talking about! The little boy replied.

-You want to deny all your guilt. How do you see me? Having see a coffin, so you don’t know how to sheer tears right! Hao la! Let me help you to. After the warning, Wei Wei quickly stormed to where White Dragon was and pull him closer to stand in front of the boy, and she enjoyably continued, pushing White Dragon to held up his sword. So this Silly boy, the sword and remove your fishy head away from your neck in just a second. If I can take the sword I will do that myself. So stop lying and confess your crime.

To Wei Wei and White Dragon’s surprised, the little boy brightened his sight, on seeing the powerful sword.

-The White Snow Dragon Sword! He whispered in amazed, eyes pacing to the sword while both Wei Wei and White Dragon looked on each other in furious of what the boy was saying.

A quickly moment later he turned his upside down view to White Dragon and reviewed.

-So you must be the number one killer White Dragon!…After that, he changed his eyes over to Wei Wei,… And you must be Zhao Wei Wei xiao jie, which was stolen by White Dragon on your wedding day!

Wei Wei knitted her eyebrows in disbelieving, as she pulled on to White Dragon’s sleeve.

-How come that boy known so much about us? She whispered, when White Dragon returned which the same confusion eyes.

-You wondered how can I known all about you? Easy because I’m the known it all kid. I even known thing that you don’t know. You are going to Huan Zhou and Zhao Wei Wei will be returning to Wu shao ye, Wu Qi Long. Who been putting out people to search for you guy’s track to see why it taken you so long to get there.

With no other thought, White Dragon flied up, wiping his sword, cutting through the rope which tighten the little boy’s feet to the tree. In a sudden flash, the boy dropped down to the ground. As he was still recovering to stand up, when Wei Wei rushed over and grabbed him up by the collar.

-Now you better tell me, how come you know so much about us! With a little kid like you how can you know so much, or have you been tailing us, right? She raged out in a hard voice, while the little trying to catch back with his breath to speak.

-Zhao Xiao jie, I already told you, I’m the know it all kid. I have no home, no family, I travel from place to place, living on my earning by sitting out the market street, and ofcouse from then that’s why I picked up so many things.

-I don’t believe, there is such a person like you! Wei Wei fought back, wanting to hear the real truth.

-I believed him! White Dragon firmly spoken out, as Wei Wei turned to him in wonder…I had heard about him awhile ago, but I didn’t take it seriously. He is just a teenager boys, who lived his whole life on the street, everyday he travel from different hotel, motel and inn. Making this earning by pretending as a street beggar, but during all this years he also picked up quite a few secret that other had unintentionally let out.

Wei Wei was still amazed by the explanation, growing up in a high-class family, she never imaged what different jobs there is that people use to make their living. This little boy’s situation was definitely one of the stranger one.

-Yes! You really are number killer in the black world. That’s my life, I always was, don’t know to call it luck or back luck, at the right time, right place to pick up some of the most outrageous stories. I even known one that related to the powerful sword that you are using.

White Dragon and Wei Wei placed a concern looks on each other, asking whether they should believe the words from just a little boy. But it doesn’t hurt to hear about.


Chapter 11

The little boy rushed over by the waterside, scooped up a feel plum of water and drank quickly to refresh himself. After all that hiding, being caught and hanging upside down, he was in serious needs for something to cool down.

-Hey cheeky boy! Wei Wei once again came over, pulled on his ear and pushed him to walk back to where Whiter Dragon and her had been waiting…Don’t think that you can get away with it. That’s enough to resting, get back and tell us what ever you know, then I may consider to let you go…

-Ouch, ouch…How could a nasty temper person like you are born in a formal family…A little try out in complaint, strangling between her force.

-Shut up! Wei Wei yelled out even louder, and in the last force, she kicked on from the back as the little boy went falling in front of White Dragon. He looked up hopefully until White Dragon turned in for a helpless look.

-Now…tell me, what do you know about us? Wei Wei began her questionnaires.

-I already told you what I knew, except for something that I’m sensing but not sure of…The little boy replied, at the same time, giving both Wei Wei and White Dragon a shifty look.

Immediately, both of them took it uncomfortably, as Wei Wei quickly step up to change the topic.

-Then what do you know about the Sword?

The little boy, started a big frown, rubbing seriously on his little pointed cheek, gradually he squash down for a seat, and began to brighten his eyes, toward to fury looks of Wei Wei and White Dragon.

-That something, I’m sure about! That sword, called the White Snow Dragon Sword, together with the Red Fire Phoenix Sword are a pair.!

-Red Fire Phoenix Sword! Wei Wei repeated the phase with an inquiry look as she walked over to Dragon for some help…Have you ever heard of it?

He shook his head slowly in the same blankness, but before either of them can put up the question, the little boy already sighed in disappointment.

-I knew, that you guys don’t know much!…Useless… At the end of the sentence, he already saw Wei Wei was flying toward him with a big kick, with the quick sense he had learnt, the little boy rolled his body to the other side and sat up against with her action… Hey if you want me to talk, then stop harassing me.

-Me harassing you? Wei Wei threw back, after missing her target… Then you better tell the story properly or else.

-You haven’t give me the chance yet! The boy cut in.

Wei Wei was rising hot with tempers as never no body had dare to cut in her speech like that, only this little snobby rat sitting in front of her, feeling like she could go over and strain his neck to his last breath. But at the same time, she felt a firm grab holding back her arm, turning around, she relaxed on White Dragon claming look. Which gave the boy a chance to continue.

-Okey let me continue. The Phoenix and the Dragon Sword are a pair, one for the cold and strong, one fore hot yet sensitive, which can be use by a soul-matched couple. A male and a female.

-What is cold and heat, strong and sensitive, male and female, I’m feeling like you’re talking rubbish! Wei Wei cut in, when the little boy shook his head disapprovingly and moved on.

-I’m not sure how Phoenix and Dragon Swords were made, but not much people know about them or most of them had forgotten, because to take in the Phoenix and Dragon swords, you had to have this special power that born in you. Normal person can’t take the cold electric feeling from the Dragon Sword or the Fire rays from the Phoenix.

-So that’s means the swords are useless, if no one can take its power! Wei Wei couldn’t help again to put in her disagreement, when sudden she turned over to White Dragon with his Dragon sword, and scolded back at the boy. You’re definitely lying, how can he can touch the Sword and use it quiet normal.

-Would you stop cutting in my sentence. Finally the little boy took the blame back to Wei Wei. I haven’t got up to that part yet! Of course there have to be someone who suits with the use of the swords, and only as I known of, there are only two persons. A male for the Dragon sword and a female for the Phoenix Sword. White Dragon if I’m not wrong, there should be a tattoo of a silver dragon in the hollow of your right hand.

Not waiting for White Dragon to reply, Wei Wei already chased over. She quickly opened his right hand and was amazed at the sight of a little Silver Dragon printed in his hand.

-Where did you get this print? She asked out of confusion and amazement.

-No! It was there since I was born! White Dragon replied, uncertainly, while the little boy proudly lift up his face to the correctness of his prediction.

-Is that mean what ever he said is true? Wei Wei asked out in wonder, she been refusing what ever been told were all wrong and would hate to find out that it’s really the truth.

-Not necessarily! White Dragon replied as he stood up and started approaching to the little boy, who turning in confuse. You said there are only one person that is strong enough to take over the Dragon Sword! White Dragon re-asked the question with Wei Wei supporting behind.
-Yes! The little boy still answered in confidant.

-Well! Then you’re wrong, because I once knew a friend who can also use this sword, in fact he was the one who gave the sword to me! White Dragon let out, while the little and Wei Wei took turns to gasp in surprise and shock.

-But I was told!…The little boy fought back, refusing to believe what he had pick up was wrong, but Wei Wei had took the winning pace and continue to attack.

-Well, you were told lie little boy! Face it you got tricked. Wei Wei started her picking.

-No, I never heard anything wrong! The boy stills unease to let go.

-Have you learnt, there is such a word as rumors! So don’t ever believe everything that you heard. If there really is such a horrific story of the Dragon Sword and the Phoenix Sword, why no body else know about it except for you! Wei Wei broke back, enjoying herself teasing the little boy in lost.

-But…He humbled in frustration, but truly Wei Wei was the quicker one.

-But, you’re the know it all kid. Please give me a break, if you’re the known it all kid, then I would be that mighty strong female to take over that Phoenix Sword.

-Sure you can, if your right hand had a tattoo of a golden Phoenix. The little boy cried out the depend, curious enough, Wei Wei took out her right hand and place to the front, while White Dragon also lead over to have a peak at it, and the little ran all the way over for a closer look in person.

“Ohhh” Suddenly he gasped out of wonder, pulling Wei Wei’s hand a little bit closer.

-I never sees anyone had so many lines in their hand like you! He teased, as immediately after that, he felt a slap on his forehead pushing him a few steps backward.

-Idiot boy! After all this you think I still believe you! Wei Wei yelled out, after she gave to him the big hit.

-What! That’s up to you! But I’m telling the truth. Continue on the fight, the little boy still kept firmly on his believe. While facing the non-stop attacks from Wei Wei.

-Oh yeah, so then would you happen to know, where I can find that fascination Phoenix Sword of your! She thought she was putting out the trick question, when the little boy turned the hit around to the innocent, quiet White Dragon.

-Why don’t you asked him?

White Dragon turned absolutely starlet, when both Wei Wei and the little boy turned their argument back on him. Shaking his head viciously to indicate with Wei Wei that he had no idea, when the little boy cried out in disbelieve.

-You took the Dragon Sword, you must had seen the Phoenix Sword as well, because both of them situated together in one place! The little boy cried out, when Wei Wei still kept on her curious look to White Dragon, under her stood up for the defended.

-I told you, I didn’t take the Sword, it was given to me by my best friend. He let out..

-Where is your friend now? Wei Wei asked, finding herself so attracted to the stupid hilarious story between the existing of a Phoenix Sword, partner with the Dragon Sword.

White Dragon, looked down in a moment of silence, like if his emotions had just been stirred up. “He’s dead” The replied spoke out quietly as both Wei Wei and the little boy felt a sorry moment and they had touched.

-That’s impossible, cause where I heard the White Dragon Sword stay in a place where there is snow under the sun. And the Phoenix Sword is in a place where there is fire glow in water. Before he could finish his sentence, another slap was given out, his time from the back of his head “Ouch”

-You known, the more you talk, the more ridiculous you sound. How can there be snow under the hot Sun, and how could fire burns on water, do you know that water kills fire.!! Now, I’m definitely sure that you’re been talking non-sense. Why don’t you take on the job of a cloud playing fun jokes like this in the market! From then Wei Wei broke out in pearls of laughter, while the little boy was running with temper, inside he knows that he’s been telling the truth, but he just told it to the wrong people.

=======================================

After finding out that he had the same aiming with the Yang’s family. Lin Chi Yong accepted the invitation and joined in the journey with the Yang, who were on their way looking for their enemy White Dragon. Now with Chi Yong co-operation, hopefully they can defeat their greatest fear.

Nightfall once again invaded, as everybody all took their rest inside the old temper on the road, while Chi Yong still fully awake, sitting outside alone, he was peacefully watching at the stardom sky, until a disturbing patch on the shoulder that brought him back to earth.

-Lin Cung Zi! What are you doing up so late! Xin Ru asked out excitingly while she came down and sat next to Chi Yong on the lower step.

-Yang Cu niang! I’m just looking at the stars above, and how about you! Chi Yong turned back the question.

Immediately, Xin Ru felt her face blushing in hot heat, looking around to make sure that’s her brothers was no where around, slowly she pulled in closer, to whisper with Chi Yong.
-Lin Cung Zi, can I ask you something!

Chi Yong felt amused upon her secretive hidden action, but

-Yes sure, anything that I can answer! He kindly replied back.

Xin Ru continued to felt the embarrassment, as she twisted each of her little fingers, not wanting to look into Chi Yong furious eyes pacing on her. Hesitantly she softly asked out the question she been wanting to ask, since hearing that Chi Yong just met with White Dragon.

-Lin cung zi! When you had that duet with White Dragon, did you see anyone else was with him?

-Is there anyone else with White Dragon? Chi Yong rephrased the question, when Xin Ru grinned shyly as she continued with some extra details.

-Yes, a small builds guy, but really charming and cute face!

Chi Yong couldn’t help but to let out a little smile, as he gasped with realization of whom was Xin Ru asking for.

-Yes I saw that person, he looked very weak in Kung fu skill, but White Dragon appeared to be very protective for that guy!

One hearing, the man which she been waiting to she again was still with White Dragon, Xin Ru relaxed back, but as the same time she realised of how embarrassing for her as a girl and going around to ask about a guy. So quickly she changed the subject, saying a rush goodnight with Chi Yong, and ran all the way in side the temper.

Chi Yong turns his head around grinning and shaking his head upon her innocent’s action, but reluctantly, he also stood up and found his place to rest for the night.

Hidden neatly behind on of the broken door, was a black shadow been watching and hear dropping on the quickly conversation between Xin Ru and Chi Yong. That person was not interested in either Xin Ru or Chi Yong, but she was curious on the topic about White Dragon.

=========================

Fan Bing returned back to her resting place, just after Xin Ru gad settle down beside her mother. Sitting crossed-leg, in her controlling position. Fan Bing began to gather her power, with the professional skill she was taught, moving her hands around with the clearing out motion, she slowly began to pick up voices from her master.

-Fan Bing have you find out where is White Dragon!

-Not yet master, but very soon, because there is a guy just joining in with the Yang, he said he just had a duet with White Dragon not far from where we are now. I would guess I’m very close to him.

-Good! Once you get to White Dragon, remember what you have to do?

-Don’t worry master, as long as I see him, just on puff of my powder and he’ll…

-You silly girl! White Dragon is not a normal type man that you can seduce him with your powder, he will recognize right away. Using your powder is just like you’re trying to hide your head, but forgetting about the tail.

-Then what should I do master to get the sword of him, while my martial skill is not as strong as his.

-Seduce him with the real power. No matter what he is like. He is still a man and no man can resist the power of beauty.

-Beauty! Fan Bing let out a little satisfaction evil grin, and continued. I know what I should do now master.

-Remember, she can’t touch the Dragon Sword with your bare hand, but try to make White Dragon fall for you, so that he would follow you and come to me. Once White Dragon is under our control and then I will show you where to get the Phoenix Sword.

-Yes! Master.

A moment of silent later, Fan Bing regained back to her conscious stage. Opened her eyes and looked around, everybody still deep in their sleep. Slowly she moved up her right hand and opened it, her smile gone even brighter, looking at the shivering golden Phoenix glowing in her hand. Sank back to seat, Fan Bing remembered back what her master had told her about the Phoenix and Dragon’s sword.

“Fan Bing, you’re the chosen one to take the Phoenix Sword, combine with the power from the Dragon Sword, you can take control over the black magic of the dark world. Then everyone will honor you as the greatest power.!”


Chapter 12

Qi Long gathered up his power and concentration, aiming at the whole lines of big stones standing in front of him a an extensive distance. The moment to explore his power he turned his fists and shot out the power toward to massive stones. Hit one was a success, the stone blow up in thick dusty wind and broken down into small pieces. Second hit got the same target, but in the third and forth hits, they didn’t work quite well. When the two last stone still survive standing tall in front of the irritating young master. Qi Long stamped his foot on the ground, and vigorously turned backward, walking toward his new master Tao Kui.

 -I’m not doing this anymore! Qi Long began to raise his voice, carelessly at the mysterious expression of his immortal looking master…This is useless, I want to look for Wei Wei.

 But just before Qi Long about to walk off from the practicing ground, Tao Kui rushed himself toward in a speed of lighting and stopped in the way of his young stubborn master.

 -Shao ye! You just need to concentrate a bit more, don’t stress yourself.

 -I said I won’t do it anymore, to do hear me! Qi Long angrily replied back, forcing himself to a higher position, looking down at his master, before he used his hand to pushed away the annoying man, and one more time attempting to walk forward. I will not able to concentrate without knowing where she is.

 Yet before he could reach to the gate, Tao Kui somehow managed to catch up and stopped his way once more him. His voice away stayed in a claming and softening level, but his eyes filled up with control pushing for Qi Long to listen and obey under his command.

 -Shao ye, please get that dangerous feeling away from your mind, thinking of a woman is a worst thing that could happen to a great fung ku trainer, Please get back to your field.

 Qi Long got anxious, he was not use to people controlling him, but knowing of how great and evil his master power can be, he hesitantly had to return back in his practice ground.

  =========================================

 After a long week going through the forest, they finally reached to the end of the grumpy road. Now with only one more town to cross, they soon will reach to Huan Zhou, the place where either one of them wanting to come.

 White Dragon still walking straightly in the front, while Wei Wei was tackling her steps from the back. After the moment it almost happen just a few nights before, she was then waiting for him to reveal his thought, when he was coming back to his icy mask, trying to cover the mix emotions growing day after day inside of him. Because so far as he known of, she belonged to someone else.

Suddenly, White Dragon paused on his track, and slight turned backward, Wei Wei noticed the sudden change, as she also took in the same caution, turning backward toward where the suspicious noised were coming from. As both of them get ready for another attack, until Wei Wei viewed a little figure moving behind the bushes, using her newly learned Kung Fu, she chased quickly to the tree and pull out the little figure.

 -Stupid boy, I let you go, so why keeps following us? Wei Wei yelled out to the little boy, as she pulled him out from the big bush.  

 -Aiyah, xiao jie, do you have to be so harsh on me every time you caught me? I was not following you! The little boy cried out the defense, while pushing for a way to get free.

 -Oh yeah, How can I believe you? When every time I turned around, I see you stupid face behind me! She crushed down again, not willing to let go of the fish from her hook that easy.

 The little gave the last strangle and finally got away from Wei Wei’s grab. He used his hand to rub on his left ear, where she was squeezing to tightly before, and cried again.

 -I’m not following you, I just don’t have any where to go!

 Wei Wei soften back, even know he been very disturbing to be with, but since listened to his story the other night, she develop a certain sympathy for a little boy, who almost lost within the great tragic world. That was why, she let him go, never expected that he would continue to follow her.

 As cheeky as he always was, the little boy caught in sight the pitiful look from Wei Wei, quickly taken the opportunity, he slowly walked over and clenched onto her arm.

 -Wei Wei, jie jie! Can you let me follow you!

 Wei Wei looked up in surprise, but her eyes showed a ray of shocks. What was the boy thinking asking her that? Furiously she turned over to White Dragon who was standing from the other side, observing what was going on. Hearing the outrageous seeking, White Dragon decided to come over and work things out more clearer.

 -Little boy, you can’t ask for that, Zhao Xiao jie, can’t take you with her, we have a lot to do! And it is not suitable for you to follow us.   

 To their unexpected, in reaction, the little boy bushed out in long strain of tears, like if he had just fallen to a whole of disappointment.

 -I knew it! I knew my life is just so empty. I have no relative, no friend, no one for me to look upon to. I’m always lost, not knowing what to be for my future, and now all I wish for is just direction for me to follow, a family that I can be with, and…. He sobbed loudly, making sure that everyone can see clearly how painful he felt.

 Wei Wei by then could not control her emotion, despair how many disputes they have had, but at that moment she just want to bring to warmest comfort to me. So running in closer, she quickly hugged on to the little boy.

 -Come on, don’t cry, I didn’t say that I’m not letting you go with me!…Tenderly she wiped out the hot tears on his little cheeks with her soft finger, and gently patted on his back. Hao la, you can follow me from now on…But. Before the little boy can cry out of celebration, he tension paused back until she finish her sentence. You had to listen to me, and only do what ever I told you to do!

 -Yes, jie, I will only do thing when you tell me to! Thank you, now I finally got a jie jie.

He jumped out, bouncing around in excitement when Wei Wei had to rush over and held him back.

 -Wait, now tell me what is your name, and how old are you!

 Like a sudden hit, the boy immediately drifted off from his cheering smile a reluctant looks, as he softly replied.

 -Honestly, I don’t know what is my name or how old I am. I only know that my life has been attached to the street, and people called me different sort of things, that I can’t work out which one is my name!

 A little crystal sincerer tear welled up in his eyes, and quietly fell down on his cheek, as Wei Wei quickly caught back to strain and dried it off.

 -Don’t worry, I’ll give a name for you, let’s me see from now on you will be a new person, you will have a new life, I’ll call you Xiao Xin Ren (con nguoi moi, Tieu Tan Nhan) okey!

 -Hahaha.. I got a name, Xiao Xin Ren is my name, I am Xiao Xin Ren, thank you, jie jie, thank so much. He jumped up and down holding on her hands, his happy and excitement could not hide anywhere, which brought a pleading smile to Wei Wei, atleast she had done a good thing the little life.

 While Xiao Xin Ren kept on exaggerating his excitement, he ran all the way to the front, jumping and shouting out his new name.

 Wei Wei giggled with little laughter on seeing the silly reaction, but as she about to step forward, she felt her hand been pulled back. When turning around, Wei Wei noticed, she had forgotten about him.

 -Wei Wei, what are you doing? White Dragon asked out anxiously filled with fury as the worries expressed in his eyes.

 Wei Wei on the other hand fully relaxed, she slowly used her hand washed his hand away her other arm, looking at him with a shifty smile, she said I out mockingly.

 -You Peng, don’t worry, can’t you see how happy I just made a little boy feel, bring with him actually will be good. Unlike some people, Xiao Xin Ren doesn’t know pretend and he can entertain me during the trip. A little grin, and Wei Wei coldly dashed off, enjoying how she just put out a sharp hit aiming toward as his covered mask.

 ================================

 Unaware to the Yang, who were planning to catch White Dragon, but they accidentally got a head of him a one step. Settling in the new town, the family decided to stay back for a few days to track down for any news of White Dragon.

 Bing Bing was hiding in her own bedroom, when she heard the door knock, carefully she replied in that softy tone to the person outside. A moment later, Chi Shing walked in with a tea tray in his hand.

 -Fan cu naing, here is the tea! He gently spoke out, while placing the tray on the little table, in the middle of the room.

 Bing Bing, lift up herself from the bed, she flirted her long hair trend to the back, and with a killer smile she approach to where Chi Shing was standing beside the table.

 -Thank you, da cung zi, this should not be your job!

 -Don’t worry is my pleasure! He replied dreamily while eyes still attached to her smile.

 -Ah, where is everybody? Bing Bing pretended to ask, as she pour out a teacup for Chi Shing and another on for herself.

 -Oh, Father and mother are resting, Xin Ru gone out to the shop with Chi Yong and Chi Lam. Chi Shing politely replied, not knowing how dangerous the people sitting in front of him really is.

 ====================================    

 At a different inn in the same town, White Dragon and Wei Wei with Xiao Xin Ren finally got in, and settle in there own room.

 Planning he could take a quiet rest in the room, before getting ready to move off again, or he can stayed back in the town a little longer, just to spread out the times being with her. White Dragon fallen back in confusion of his thoughts, not sure what should he do, or what he shouldn’t do until he heard a door knock, and in a quickly moment. Wei Wei pushed in to the room, without waiting for any invitation, followed behind was her new tail, Xiao Xin Ren.

 -You Peng we’re going to the shop, do you want to come! She asked out, preventing to look at his cold expression, she just can’t understand how he can put up an act for so long.

 -Yes, Peng ge, do you want to go, it will be fun. Xiao Xin Ren asked out, being with Wei Wei, he was taught to call White Dragon by his real name.

 -No thanks! You guys can go but be careful. White Dragon uninterestedly replied, while Wei Wei curled up her lower lips in dissatisfaction. Between him and her, they had grown from the border of being total stranger, to be friend, and to feel more than just friend. But now his unattraction attitude just brought a big question mark on her head, wondering what really happening between him and her.

 But ignored the confusion, Wei Wei pulled back a her blank smile and replied.

 -Okay then, Xiao Xin Ren, we go.! After that without any waiting, she pulled on the collar of Xiao Xin Ren, and walked out of the room, while the little boy cried out from shock when being pulled backward.

 White Dragon opened his eyes in realisation, wondering should he be following her. But he sighed back, she was still disguising as a male, with Xiao Xin Ren beside her, they may not catch a lot of attention.

 Walking out to the widow, looking down the street, he managed to snap the quick image of how Wei Wei was pulled Xiao Xin Ren with her, rushing to the market. He closed his eyes in a painful moment, thinking of how empty his life will be, if they reach to Huan Zhou, and if Wei Wei go back to Qi Long. But then he opened his eyes in determination, that his life will be fine, he will just returned back to what he used to be, the number one, cold blooded killer. Except for the scar in his heart, which will be permanent.   


Chapter 13

Wei Wei was not showing any attraction to the active atmosphere while she took her steps slowly along the busy market’s street. Her vacuous expression spoke out clearly that she was not in her normal hyperactive self, even Xiao Xin Ren could tell.

-Wei jie jie! He called out pulling on her sleeve when in a sudden reinforcement Wei Wei turned around with heavy alerting.

-What did you just call me again? Can’t you see what am I dressing at!

Xiao Xin Ren gasped a little “oops” remembering Wei Wei was in a male custom, so quickly he corrected himself.

-Sorry, Hum, what should I call you? Peng ge!

-Hah! Wei Wei abruptly cut in, showing off her irritating side as his name was mentioned. Why must you call me by his name, just Zhao ge will do fine thank you! Not in the mood for any future debating with her mischief tail, Wei Wei rushed off, leaving Xiao Xin Ren had ran forward a few more steps to catch up.

-Hey! …Um..Zhao ge…Why are you mad at him! With his nosy sense, Xiao Xin Ren never learn to lay low, in fact he was best in digging up stories.

-I’m not mad at White Dragon! Wei Wei quickly groaned back, but just then Xiao Xin Ren instantly pulled the in the rob as he got her where he wanted.

-Hey, I didn’t say anything about Peng Ge!

-You!?

-And if you not mad at him, why did you call him ‘White Dragon’! Just after finished the sentence, for safety reason, Xiao Xin Ren stayed low as he tried to dash quickly in another direction.

Wei Wei had turned around, pulling up her sleeves and was about to grab back the cheeky tail, when suddenly she paused back, looking at three familiar people at a craft store from the opposite street.

=======================================

-Xin Ru, we been out the street all day, I think it time to go back now! Chi Lam gave a frown, as his tired eyes kept watching on the active sister, who was still exploring from store to store.

Lin Chi Yong was walking beside, grinning admiringly at the living beauty of the young mistress, soon after that he turned over to his newly made friend and revealed some feelings.

-Yang Cu naing, really known how to enjoy herself!

Chi Lam laughed with a worry expression.

-It’s more like, she know how to get herself into problem, and I told you that she done it many times before.

Both the young friends gave a little giggle to each other, when Xin Ru exciting skipped her way over to join the fun.

-Hey, what are you guys laughing about, nothing involved me isn’t it? Crossing her arms together in the front, Xin Ru turned her big eyes side way, looking at her brother and then to the new friend.

-Oh no nothing about you! Chi Yong quickly thought of a good way to confirm as he tried to straighten himself, not forgetting to indicate for Chi Lam to do the same.

But Xin Ru had not paid very close attention to the faxing expression that the guys were trying to put on. Her mind got caught at the beautiful site of a antique craft store, as she stepped in the middle, and pulled on her brother’s wrist and Chi Yong’s sleeve over to the store.

 

-Okay then, if you’re not talking behind my back, then join me at this stove.

By the strong determined pull, both Chi Lam and Chi Yong had nothing to against rather then followed after their energetic mistress.

==============================

From the other street, Xiao Xin Ren furiously walked to the front, on realizing Wei Wei had suddenly paused still on her steps, while her eyes were trying to analyse something from the other side.

-Wei… I meant, Zhao Ge, what are you doing!?

By the question, it helped Wei Wei to snap back, she immediately grabbed on Xin Ren’s shoulder, and forced him to turn on the other side. With no hesitation, she started to make him walk off quickly, and her uneven steps followed.

-What’s is wrong, why are we turning backward.? Xiao Xin Ren asked out in confuse, while trying to unforced the push.

-Don’t look back, I saw that weird girl again, she may recognised me? Wei Wei whispered to his ear, while continued on pulling her tail back to the inn.

But Xiao Xin Ren was never that easy to bypass any interesting subject, and “weird girl” was definitely one of them. So couldn’t control his curious, Xiao Xin Ren shiftily turned his head to the back to look for who was Wei Wei mentioning about.

=======================================

Xin Ru was still very much attracted to the antic crafts that she kept showing different pieces to her two bodyguards.

-Er ge, look! Aren’t this unique or what, this it just too cute! She proudly move up a little pendant with was beautifully crafted in colourful beams, until Chi Lam waved his hand unattractively to the object.

-You’re a girl, you should be very familiar with his things?

Xin Ru pulled her face down slightly to her brother’s negative comment, disappointedly she put down the pendant to the store, and started to trial off again. But the moment her frowning face turned out the opposite street to meet with that one familiar person who she been dreaming about most of the nights. Xin Ru quickly lifted up her pace in amazement and started waving and running at him.

-Cung zi, cung zi!

Chi Lam quickly focused back on the street on hearing his sister was calling out for some one. But the moment he tried to look for Xin Ru, she was already running to the other street chasing behind two figures that were trying to move away as fast as they can.

==========================================

Wei Wei exceeded her speed more and more when hearing the calling was louder. Luckily just on the dot point, she saw a little street up ahead. Using the street crowding room, Wei Wei planned to hide her view away from the chaser, so she pulled Xiao Xin Ren with her into the small street.

They stayed quiet by the corner, just after seeing Xin Ru had missed them and was running straightforward, Wei Wei released the tension as she puffed in tiredness.

-What’s is up with you and that girl? Xiao Xin Ren finally found the time to ask his question while still leading strongly against the wall, resting from the long run.

-That’s Yang Xin Ru, she once saw me dressed as a female, so she might spoil my plan. Plus her family is looking for You Peng to revenge, and if she see me, then her family will go and look for him! Wei Wei let out the best as she can in explaining the story.

 

-Ah, so now, you’re worrying about him? Xiao Xin Ren questioned back cheekily, as Wei Wei blocked in defend, so she scored her eyes down, and followed by a slight slap on his shoulder.

-Who asked you to be so nosy. Anyway, go out there and check if she still there, cause I want to get back to the inn. Wei Wei ordered out in her pretended tough voice.

But with Xiao Xin Ren never take anything serious, in the heats of the moment, he still managed to come up with a new plan.

-I think it better for you to be friend with her? He said, looking suspiciously into the story.

-What? Wei Wei cried out in shock and rebutted.

-Well, she already saw you, so definitely she will go back and tell on her family, and they will know that Peng ge and you are in town. So why don’t you try to be friend with her, and make she believe that you’re not with White Dragon anymore, and everything done! Intelligent enough his plan sounded, but Wei Wei still was not very supportive when hearing the point that she has to be friend with an abnormal person.

-Me? I can’t talk with her, she’ll drive me crazy!

Xiao Xin Ren paused back a few moments to think of a second plan, actively enough, he snapped his fingers and turned around with a more determines thought.

-Let’s me go and open the conversation, but you may need to give me something as a form of identification that proved I’m talking on your behalf. Then after she understood everything, you can come in! So it just to help the long story short.

Wei Wei looked on more carefully into the plan, but within such a short time, she saw nothing was strong with it.

-Okey, you can find Xin Ru and talk to her, I’ll go back to the inn!

-To checks on Peng ge! Xin Ren cut in with the teased as Wei Wei quickly gave his forehead a slap. “Ouch” he cried out from the sudden hit.

-Stop talking non-sense! Here takes this handkerchief and do what ever you have to do.

Xiao Xin Ren reluctantly took over the pinky handkerchief, while rubbing on his forehead with his hand. And Wei Wei prudently moved herself back to the main street, checking up and down carefully before she made the whole run back to the inn.

-Ouch! Because she’s is bigger than me, that’s why she always tried to get me, that’s not fair. Xiao Xin Ren cried out, still smoothen his forehead, as he walked back to the main street, looking around for the target, and soon he finally found her, still wondering around, looking for the person that she just lost.

=======================

-Yang cu niang! Xiao Xin Ren called out, waving his hand out deliberately to get Xin Ru’s attention.

And in returned she turned back, recognising it was the boy who was running with the guy that she been chasing after, Xin Ru brightened up and walked over.

-Hey little boy, where is he? The first question she spoke out, leaving no room for Xiao Xin Ren to introduce himself.

-He? The little boy whispered back in surprised, but then he started to make the correction. You meant her?

-Who’s her? Xin Ru replied in confuse, but yet she still eager to find out about him. I’m asking about that gentleman who was beside you a few minutes ago? Once again Xin Ru remarked her question, this time it got straight to Xiao Xin Ren.

-Oh! He frowned in big realisation, before turning to another side and giggle from laughter. “So she’s still think she’s a he!”

 

On seeing the weird humor action from the boy, Xin Ru stepped in further, and tapped on his shoulder.

-Wah, I’m talking with you, where is the person who just walked with you?

Xiao Xin Ren, straighten out himself again, covered by a serious face and he played on with his new joke.

-Ah, that person! She, I meant he asked me to invite you for dinner tonight!

Immediately a strong heat force brushed in, Xin Ru felt her cheeks rising hot with shyness and likeness. Finally the man who she been thinking about had asked her out. But as the embarrassment of a girl, she twisted her body slightly and turned back with a few questions.

-Um, why can’t he asked me before, and why did he run away!

-Aiyah! He didn’t ask you before, because he didn’t repair to see you here in a sudden. So he rushed off because he was shy to reveal his feelings… Xin Ru couldn’t decrease on her smile, which was just kept expanding more bigger on her lips. While Xiao Xin Ren gave away a quick cheeky glance, and continued on with his newly thought of story. Yang cu niang, my brother asked me to give this to you!

Xin Ru eyes shined out of glistering hopes as she held on to the little pinky handkerchief, heart was touched with emotion, she cradled the thing gently in her slim finger. Suddenly she paused back in fury, pointing back to Xiao Xin Ren with the handkerchief.

-Hey why are there three words “Zhao Wei Wei” written on it?

Xiao Xin Ren took back in caution, as he didn’t expect Zhao Wei Wei to be appearing on anything, but mischievously how his mind works, he came up with another excuse.

-Um, Yang cu niang please do not misunderstand! Zhao Wei Wei is our mother who passed away, and this handkerchief was one of the treasure things that she left over. Zhao ge really treasure it, he once told me that he only give this to a person that control his heart and to be my sister in-law in the future.

Candy is always sweet and no girl and rejected on such a sugary phrase, which aimed at exactly where they wanted. Soften enough, Xin Ru put up the handkerchief again, she laid it neatly in her hand, and turned over to Xiao Xin Ren for some confirmation.

-Sorry little, your brother…

Once noticing the medicine had worked, Xiao Xin Ren excitingly planned out the last preferment.

-Oh, My Brother is Zhao Peng, I’m Xiao Xin Ren, we are staying at the Southern inn, and if it okey with you, my brother will be waiting in there for you!

Xin Ru tried not to show her beaming expression, it was just a wonderful dream that come true so quickly that she can’t believe if she really was awoke.

While Xin Ru was still likening with her own fantasy, some else was enjoying their own revenge’s plan.

“So sorry Jie Jie, but after all that hits from you I had to do something, but I promised that after this one, I will try to be your prefect little brother!” Grinning evilly with himself, Xiao Xin Ren skipped in rhythm all the way back to the inn, preparing for the final exciting part of his plan.


Chapter 14

In her motel’s room, Wei Wei was still waiting anxiously for the return of her tail, hoping to hear some good news. But when she decided to go out and check on Xiao Xin Ren, surprisingly she noticed White Dragon was standing outside her room since when ever before, on seeing she was coming out, he quickly turned away, rushing his steps back to his room. But it was not fast enough.

-What are you doing out here? Wei Wei asked out, watching at him suspiciously.

-Oh! Nothing, I was just checking on Xiao Xin Ren, whether he’s back yet or not! Turning around hesitantly, he had to find an excuse for standing outside her door then quickly turned back his way to his room.

“Liar!” Wei Wei thought out inside, while her eyes keep watching on from his back, since White Dragon can’t even had to courage to turn back and face her.

-Xiao Xin Ren already gone out doing something for me, and why are you suddenly concern so much for him anyway!? Cheekily she put back the question, waiting on what will be the story that White Dragon going to put out.

He turned puzzled, being as a number one killer, never White Dragon aware that he could be standing in between like this, but still bright enough, he thought up the rest to explain out.

-Nothing! He confirmed back with that cold, motionless tone. I just want to make sure that everybody is together, because I don’t want to go out and look for anyone later. We should be going soon tomorrow, so you may take all the rest that you can. Carelessly or more like trying to escape, White Dragon rushed out every words so quickly, that Wei Wei almost couldn’t get them all. After the promptly phrase, he quick walked off, heading straight to his room, which was an small room away and closed the door.

“Huh” Wei Wei gazed a sharp look at his reaction.

-Faking! Don’t you think I’m so blind that I can’t see through your thick mask. One day, I’ll make you take it down! Cold blooded killer!

==================================

 Coming back to her room and continued on the wait, Wei Wei was anxiously disturbed as he tapped her fingers unevenly, wondering what had took Xiao Xin Ren so long to return.

-Gosh, that stupid boy! I shouldn’t have trusted him! Wonder whether will he’s going to be back or not!

Just at the annoying thought, she heard a sound of footsteps coming in, facing back to the door in a few seconds, Wei Wei finally found the little mischief Xiao Xin Ren pushed in the door and entered the room.

-Jie jie! I’m back! He called out exciting, when in a rush moment, Wei Wei lifted up her body, dashed over to the boy and grabbed hard on his collar.

-Stupid boy, where did you go, don’t you know that I was worry! She warned out between her grumpy expression.

Xiao Xin Ren quickly gasped out from the sudden shock, then slowly he turned to release her tight grab on his collar.

-Aiyah. I was just doing the job for you! Do you know how difficult is it to convince your friend, Yang Xin Ru! Trying to act out the normal pace, Xiao Xin Ren walked passed the annoying Wei Wei and he took a seat beside the table. Relaxingly, he poured out a hot cup of tea and started enjoying it, while Wei Wei had to take on another seat next to him in eager to find out the full story.

-Wah! So, did you tell her at last! She urged out for a good reply.

Putting down the hot cup on the table, Xiao Xin Ren expressed out a long concerned frown.

-Aiyah, Jie, do you know that Yang mistress is very stubborn, I told her that you were a girl right, and she refused to believe!

-Ahh, what did you do then? Wei Wei quickly jumped up in shock of worries.

-Don’t worry! By the mouth of Xiao Xin Ren I could turns black into White, so after so much saliva that I put in the story, she finally believed me! Wei Wei let out a slight sound in relieved, while Xiao Xin Ren continued on his version of the true story. And also I invited her over here tonight, so you guys can clear things out together.

-YOU WHAT? Wei Wei quickly tried out in starlet when she was preparing him to give the cheeky tail a big punch, he understandingly ran away.

-I can explain, let me finish!

Burning angers rising inside, but Wei Wei had to control her heavy breathing and gave Xiao Xin Ren the last chance.

-You see, I was telling you to make friends with her, but it have to be face to face deal, so she coming tonight, you guys can make some connection! And everything cleared! Xiao Xin Ren abruptly put out the reason, but to Wei Wei it was not convincing enough.

-But why must you bring her here, don’t you know that her family is looking for You Peng! She raged out, stepping forward to grab at him, but again Xiao Xin Ren had gotten used to the game, he stayed low and ran.

-So what else do you suggest, let you come to see her, so that her family can recognised you and followed you to get to White Dragon. As you said it was her family that interested in White Dragon, and Xin Ru only interested in you, I mean.. as a friend.

By the long exclamation, Wei Wei finally picked out some sense from it, slowly she dropped down on the chair with some serious thoughts. Xiao Xin Ren took advantaged of the claming moment, he started to move in closer and sat next to her. Finally with his soft swaying tongue, he started to talk the subject into the plan.

-Jie jie, tonight is very simple, she come in, you invite her a meal and a few drinks, explain that you are a girl, and you no longer with White Dragon and that you like to be friend with her and it’s done.

Wei Wei looked up cautiously at the shifty face of the little boy, wondering should she believe him? Is everything going to be as easy as it sounded?

==========================================

After she failed to persuade her second brother since she wanted to go out later without telling her parents. Xin Ru had no other choice then to sneak out of the motel without telling anybody.

Chi Yong was outside, practicing with his flute liked most of the nights, until he distractedly got stopped, on seeing Xin Ru’s figure was tip toeing out of the door.

-Xin Yu cu niang! Innocently he called out, while Xin Ru jumping up in fright, once noticing it was only Chi Yong, she sneaked over to his side.     

-Shrrrr! Don’t call out my name so loud, mother could hear you! She spoken out in the softest voice that she could able to manage.

Chi Yong understood her warning, also tried to whisper in his curious tone.

-Where are you going?

-Shrrr! If I tell you, promise you won’t tell anybody, especially my family! Before letting out her secret, Xin Ru had to be sure that Chi Yong would stay quiet as well.

-Okay, but where are you going? Chi Yong urged on to know, since he also got worry for her to go out in the dark time.

-I’m going to the Southern inn! She reviewed.

-What’s for? He asked back quickly.

In a moment of embarrassment, Xin Ru waved her hand for him not to concern and continued on, she vastly turned to the gate, after giving him the last reminder.

-Don’t worry, I’ll be back later, you just have to be quiet.

Chi Yong was about to ask for more details, but when Xin Ru shadow already vanished outside the gate. He just had to stay clam and wish that she would know, what she’s doing.

===================================

By the first sunrise, Chi Lam was ordered by his mother to go and get Xin Ru out of bed, but later he ran out from Xin Ru’s empty room in shock. Reaching the first person he sees, Chi Lam quickly rushed out the question.

-Chi Yong, have you seen Xin Ru this morning!

Liked been hit at where it was hurt, Chi Yong turned puzzle, but Chi Lam was so worry to notice the hesitation of his friend.

-Mother asked me to wake Xin Ru up this morning, but I couldn’t find her anywhere, can you help me to go out the street and look for her, but don’t tell my parents okay, or else, it will be big! Chi Lam anxiously rushed out, begging for the help from his friend in finding back his playful sister.

 -Okay, Chi Lam you can head North, I will go to the South, we slipped up to find her! Chi Yong planned out, bur it was just a cover up so he can go to the Southern inn to find Xin Ru, clearly that she hadn’t been home since the sneak out lastnight.

Chi Lam quickly agreed, and soon the two males slipped up in two different directions on the street, looking for Xin Run.

==============================

White Dragon just stepped out of his room, planning to see if Wei Wei and Xiao Xin Ren were ready for their trip. But he was not yet reached to her room, when Chi Yong suddenly appeared coming from the opposite direction.

-White Dragon! Chi Yong gasped out in surprise.

-You again? White Dragon asked back in curious. I said I didn’t kill your family, so why are you keep asking for the fight! Irritatingly, he gazed over an annoying look at the young man who didn’t know what he’s up against with.

-I’m not looking for you today! But the deal between you, and me I’ll fix it later! Chi Yong strongly spoke out.

-I’m not interest in dealing with you! White Dragon arrogantly replied, hoping his warning would get the young man of his revenging blood, because White Dragon can’t really control his sword within a fight, and he would hate to kill an innocent.

-It’s doesn’t matter, but I’m not dealing with you today, I have to look for San xiao jie of the Yang family! Chi Yong spoke out quickly and about to move his step, looking further inside the motel, hoping to see Xin Ru save and sound.

But the name caught to White Dragon attention. “Yang family!” He muttered, on remembering of the five members of the Yang who chased up with him before. But Chi Yong misunderstood, by looking at the entanglement expression on White Dragon’s face, he clearly jumped in to conclusion that White Dragon was the person who was with Xin Ru lastnight. It was easy for his cold charming look to attract any feminise side that he had laid eyes on and Xin Ru could have been the latest victim.

So on feeling the envy heats boiling in his heart, Chi Yong violently jumped over and grabbed on White Dragon’s clothes.

-Did you do anything to her, where is Xin Ru?

In a quickly flash, White Dragon twisted around his body to loosen to grab, and put out a sharp kick in returned, while Chi Yong’s body splashed down across the ground.

-I don’t know what you’re talking about! He raged out.

But when Chi Yong was about to stand up for further attack, he heard a loud cry. “AHHHHHHH” It’s was from Xin Ru, Chi Yong quickly recognised, he then paused back to look around for where about the sound was coming from.

Followed after that was another yelled, this time it was from a different person “ Xin Ru!”

-Wei Wei! White Dragon shocked back on hearing it was Wei Wei’s voice.

Together, both men looked at each other in confusion, trying to work out what was happening. White Dragon took no times to waste, he only thought of the safety for Wei Wei, and ran straight to her room. While Chi Yong quickly followed behind, noticing that White Dragon could had known where about was Xin Ru.
