Chapter 21: The Bai Family Tragedy

Purple eyes stare in complex emotions at the woman who was engulf with intense hatred before turning his attention at the currently kneeling old friend of his before expressing weariness on his delicate face.

"... Its everyone fault... and base from it... Green, no... its Bai Biyu right? You are also the reason why your parent died."

The vengeful voice suddenly stop, Green eyes turn into confusion and doubt, despite all the pain she was feeling, she turned her attention to the soft voice of the person who appeared along with Bai Fang, eyes wide in question along with refusal of what he just spoken.

Sighing at this tortured woman, Yun sigh in sadness because himself is also at fault, probably the one who started it all.

Now that he was seeing everything that is currently happening right before him, everything completely intertwined together on about what he has caught of a glimpse in the future in the past before.

On this day, Yun completely loathes his ability that he was born with, if he didn't told his friend Fang about what he just saw before, would everything be different now? But there was no if, because the situation at the moment is their current reality.

"My name is Yun and my appearance might look young but I was born the same generation of your grandfather."

Yun purple eyes flickering at the dangerous young man and the close eyes Regent King, "along with The young Jun grandfather and the reigning Emperor in that Generation."

Yun soft voice turning gentle, filled with nostalgia and longing, along with bitterness at the last person he has spoke of.

"All of us was very close and the one thing that they know about me was the fact that I could glimpse of the future event, and from what I sees was among the strongest possibility of that future happening."

Green eyes widening in incredibly before she started screaming in refusal before Yun has gotten the chance to speak more.

"Impossible! No no! You are all lying!"

Yun continue to speak, eyes closing with a sad expression.

"Everything that you are doing now, was what cause the situation of your parent from the past. There was a reason why the Bai Family has decided to forbid the Cold Poison to exist, but your Father was so stubborn that he just wouldn't accept it. Understandable, it was the only thing that he was finally able to do so in his life."

Bai Fang who has been listening has finally raise his upper body as he sat in the ground with eyes filled with regret because just one wrong move, and everything has spiral out of control.

"Do you know? In my vision, there was two important future that I have seen."

Yun turn to the now silent woman, only the grasp of her breathing hard can only be heard from her at the moment, eyes still filled with overwhelming confusion, doubt and question about what was currently happening, "When you were born, specially when you were able to use the Mystic Energy a rare non-fair user, the Cold Poison ideas has taken place on your father mind, that taboo came from your ability and when its finally created, I saw the destruction of the Bai Family."

Bai Fang eyes closed, among his children, the younger one was born weak, despite being skilled in using medicine, he was still unable to heal his youngest son. And Ironically, the youngest son adored the Bai Family tradition but was just not a skilled medicinal physician, but due to his stubbornness and hard work, he was finally able to create the Cold Poison, he has shown his brilliant ability of inventing something that was never seen before, specially in using both the knowledge of their Bai medicinal and the mystic energy skill at the same time.

It was brilliant, but in the end it was too brilliant and dangerous at the same time.

Cold poison is a very incredible powerful poison, ruthless and brutal to the person that was given by it, and at the same time, brutal and heartless to the user who has the capability to do it.

Only the desperate one will use the Cold Poison to someone else because its the dead end for both of them.

Bai Fang youngest son was the creator of the Cold Poison and his granddaughter were the destined user of it.

"Secondly, I have seen that the Cold Poison might be the cause of the Bai Family being destroyed in the future, and it was in your hand that it will happen. But who would have thought that because of what happen in the past, your hatred and vengeance was what cause the Bai Family to finally disappear?"

Now everything make sense, the cold poison has been the catalyst, the Regent King was weaken by it that he lost the opportunity to fight back and would have died, causing the Young Emperor to also die and after the Wang Family has taken over the Imperial Power of the Rong Dynasty, as the closest person to the Queen Mother, it was easy to think about making the Bai Family disappear later on afterward, a reward in causing the Regent King to finally end in defeat.

But everything has change, as purple eyes look at the two person that has met with each other in this time.

Green that has been listening has her eyes now filled with madness, reason disappearing entirely as she shout in a overwhelming hatred, "I Dont Care About All That! Do you want me to believe it all? Hahaha! Even if it was true, all of you also has a hand of it! It doesn't change the fact that My Father, Mother and Baby Brother died! Everything is all your fault! All I want is for the Bai Family to disappear!"

Li Chen who has been listening about what has cause everything to happen was finally unable to bear his patience, the moving and tragic event was unable to even give him a single bit of pity.

"Are you all done?"

Green who has heard this emotionless voice cause her attention to move away from the two old man, feeling utter hatred at the person who was able to stop their plan, just a bit more and she will get what she wanted! If it wasn't for this person appearing then wouldn't the Regent King and Emperor die?

The Wang Family would have become a winner!

"Hahaha! You wanted me to give the last cure for the Regent King right!?! I will never give it! Even if you torture me and take my life, I will never give it to you! I will also let you taste the pain of losing everything you love in this life!"

Green will make everyone miserable as she felt when her parent and brother was killed! If she hasn't been fortunate, she would have also died that day and would have never has the chance to take her revenge!

Li Chen look coldly at the obviously woman who was descending to madness, murderous intention brimming inside him at the thought of Xen dying along with her, before dark ink eyes move to the Old man of the Bai Family, before his lip curve up dangerously.

"I can fulfill your wish right now and make the entire Bai Family disappear, not even leaving even a single living being that has the Bai bloodline, would you like that?"

Bai Fang and Yun face paled extremely fast as they heard the words of the Young Jun because this person is a madman! He has the capabilities to do and fulfill whatever words come out of that mouth of his!

A bit of reasoning immediately came into Green eyes as soon as she heard the words spoken by Li Chen, her eyes turning in hope but more in wariness at the person before her.

"It doesn't matter if its the main family or branch line. How about it? I can even get you a person from that family to torture this moment on and I even know that there is a person which you found not pleasing to the eyes."

As Yun purple eyes watch the dangerous smile of the Young Jun, the dark ink eyes flashing in brutal ruthlessness before purple eyes suddenly turned unfocused for a moment before quickly gotten his consciousness back.

"Old Fang! What are you hiding? Whats the matter with this person called Bai Fu?"

Yun asked in panic expression since it was only for a short while, but he saw that the Young Jun has miraculously healed the detach part of Bai Biyu, then a young figure brought a person quickly enough that they couldn't even see a glimpse of the appearance of the person that was bought before being place in the corner where a already prepared part, covered with rune as it hide the disturbing and gruesome thing happening inside as soon as the crazy woman torture that poor person to death.

But what makes it all more confusing was the fact that after learning who the person that Bai Biyu has tortured to death, his old friend suddenly cough up blood, his body trembling before fainting soon later.

And as Bai Biyu, after hearing what the young Jun has whisper toward her, she scream so loud, eyes turning into intense despair before completely losing her mind.

Bai Fang who heard the question of his old friend cause his body to shudder as old eyes turned his attention to the young Jun in disbelief before his eyes move to his granddaughter that has her eyes glinting in vindictiveness, showing that she was no longer have any care if what the young man was telling was the whole truth, if she could just make a member of the Bai Family miserable one last time before she died then it was all worth it, even if she end up dead in the end.

Old eyes widening in alarm, he was unable to stop himself from coughing up blood at what's about to happen, because it was nothing but a tragedy!

"Bai Biyu Don't accept it! That's your younger brother!"

How could Bai Fang let it all happen?

A thought cross his mind when his eyes happen to see the young man suddenly showed a very harmless smile as he watch everyone of them.

Overwhelming Intense terror, that was what he felt!

Bai Fang doesn't want to be in the same place as this Young Jun... no... this Monster anymore!

How could he be capable to do all this?

Obviously he has long known about the real Identity of Bai Fu!

"You... there was no need to go this far! Please, just please stop already!" Bai Fang plead with tears on his eyes at the young man while Yun legs has soften and has fallen sitting on the ground, face turning purple as he covered his mouth, looking like he might throw up any second.

While Wei Lei Shan that has been staying silent was shuddering and trembling all over, amber eyes could only look in horror about what was happening before her, having no idea about why this was all happening before her.

Dark ink eyes just remain calm and wave less as he watch everyone around him that was currently treating him as a devil or a monster base from their expression along.

But what about it? Don't you know how much his little Xen has suffered? As long as his little Xen accepted everything about himself, it doesn't matter how the opinions of other to Li Chen are, and as he glance at the still close eyes Xen, at least he has enough mind to not let out any single sounds to reach his little Xen ears.

Although, he was a bit nervous about how his little Xen will further react toward what he was currently doing, but he was glad that he has cast a silent spell around Xen since Li Chen doesn't want to bother his little Xen from all the noise that will be happening when he made his move.

Anyway, Li Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows at this fair person, obviously this person has definitely caught a glimpse another future that he must have done, before tilting his head, because in the end, he won't fulfill the promise of removing the entire Bai Family after that woman torture her brother to death.

It was not that he was unable to do it, or how much trouble it might cause, Li Chen just doesn't want to fulfill what this woman has been wanting all along.

He just want this woman to feel the happiness for a bit, before letting her fall from heaven to hell after learning that the person that she has been making miserable and killed was the baby brother that was still alive, Li Chen has wanted to let her die in nothing but miserably!

But now it was all gone but anyway, even if he didn't get to let the woman use her own hand to take her brother life, there was still something that couldn't be change.

Li Chen smiled gently, dark ink eyes glinting dangerously, this woman has already done something unforgivable anyway.

"You... What? My Brother? Bai Fu? He is?"

Green eyes widened before when she remember everything that she has done when Bai Fu has first enter to work in the Palace, knowing that he was a very talented physician and can become another person that will give another big influence to the Bai family, there was no way that she was able to remain silent and has use a move to ruin him, she might not be able to take his life base from how he was being regard as someone important in the Bai family in order not to cause suspicious.

But they are telling her that he was her brother? The one that she thought has died along with her parent? Her baby brother?

"B-Bai Fang!!!" Green cough, while the blood continue to drip from her lip nonstop but nothing matter more toward her at the moment, as her eyes were filled with nothing but anxiety and desperation as she bellow with all her might toward her supposed grandfather with a questioning voice.

Bai Fang eyes fright with agitation, his mouth opening and closing, unable to speak for a seconds before closing his eyes tightly in defeat, knowing that there was nothing he can do and all he could do was to tell all what he knows at this moment on, specially if he doesn't want that person to make a much more severe move toward them.

"Your mother was a very smart woman, she left the child to the other branch in the Bai Family that got their newborn children dead while also taking a fake child with her, and decided to come back later when everything was alright again. She didn't know how long it will take to convince your father since he receive a great deal of blow when he got refusal of recognition with what he just created, he wasn't on his right mindset. So she told me about it before she left to protect your brother while you are all gone. She wanted to also leave you but it was not that easy to do because of what Yun has told and you has always admire your father."

Old eyes opening while smiling derisively at himself, "But who would have thought that the elders that knows about the future events has decided in secret without my knowing to just finish you off directly in order for that future to not come true?"

"No... " She wanted to deny it but as she lock eyes with her grandfather, the feeling that she can no longer ignore and deny the intuitive feeling that has been making her feel uneasy from the start as she find that everything that they have spoken were true all along.

Bai Fu, the talented young man that she has met was her brother. The brother that carry the love of being a physician that she has crippled the hand of in order to make him live a very miserable life.

"No... Ah... What have I done? Ah... No... I didn't meant to... Ahhhhhh!"

Green eyes turned bloodshot, turning in utter despair and regret, her mind that has barely hanging on as the thoughts of what she was about to do to the only family she has left and what she has done to him, has finally break her mind completely.

"Biyu!" the old man unable to stop himself any longer and has move toward his broken and suffering granddaughter, eyes bloodshot as he no longer care of the dangerous man before him.

He failed to protect his family in the past, now, he could not also protect the granddaughter that he has been trying to find from the past few years!

Loathsome eyes suddenly gaze toward the indifferent person standing before them, Yun seeing the hopeless situation and the disorder mentality of his old friend, finally has chosen to remain silent, he tried to change what he saw before all along but everything is spiraling our of control.

Purple eyes slowly close, as he decided to finally remain silent, no longer trying to change and interrupt what he sees, remaining close lip from whatever he glimpse, something that he should have done long before and let the one that truly has the ability to change the future do their work.

Something, that he learned far too late.

Li Chen who has been indifferent from start to finish, felt his heart unmoved, as he spoke to the Patriarch of the Bai Family with cold voice,

"Just be thankful that my little Xen doesn't have any other thought of eradicating your entire Bai Family. Don't forget as the family that has created the Cold Poison that plague him for years and has almost taken his life, is a crime itself. It was enough reason for your entire family to be exterminated."

Bai Fang remain silent, loathsome eyes started brimming with hatred before refusal began to glint within it, Bai Family, always the Bai Family, because of the reason of it disappearing from History has cause the people he love with no good end.

Li Chen smiled coldy as he was able to tell what the old Fang was thinking about, "Don't forget, you still have your grandson." Bai Fang body shudder, wide eyes gaze to the monster before him as he regain a bit of reason when he heard his grandson name on his mouth, knowing that nothing good ever happen every time he speak, "Don't worry, I will not kill or torture your grandson like what I have done to your granddaughter, better yet, I'll even completely cure his broken hand and allowed him to finally fulfill his dream."

Bai Fang only feel utter desperation, living so long never before has he felt this way because from the start to finish, there was nothing that he was able to really decide, he could only pray that all of it will end soon and something good will come out from it.

He doesn't really know if he can keep his mind sane if this keep going on.

"Jun Chen, you sure have a great courage to order me to bring a person! Remember that We are the Emperor! Just because Imperial Uncle spoil you, doesn't mean that you can act Insolent to this Majesty!"

A young cold voice echoed out, before a young figure enter the dining hall, the young body carrying majestic aura, as red eyes glare at the Young man who has been called Jun Chen.

It was the Young Emperor!

And despite the fact that he was currently glaring at the person that has giving them nothing but horror from the past minutes, they can see that there wasn't really any real heat on the Emperor eyes, even his voice doesn't contain any negative emotion despite how shock all of them felt at the words spoken by the Emperor.

Who dare to order the Emperor of the Rong Dynasty?

Li Chen chuckles and bowed his head with respect, "Yes, Yes! This young man pay respect to the Emperor, please forgive my impudent self."

Seeing the huffing Emperor, even Li Chen feel a bit liking to the person before him, added to the fact that it was the only family left that his Little Xen treat with care the most in the world before turning his attention to the person that has been walking behind the Young Emperor and has stayed silent, nodding his head in secret when the young man was able to get his bearing back quickly after seeing the situation in the hall, obviously got his mentally tempered after what suffering he has face.

"I will go straight to the point. There is one thing I want you to do and I'll need your help for it."

Despite not being able to use his hand anymore to do the work of a physician, he still stayed in the Palace and use knowledge to cram inside his head.

He might not able to use any physical skill for medical but he still has his sharp mind after all.

So he stayed and waited in years for someone to someday acknowledge and appreciate his hardship and will find his talent very useful.

Li Chen admire his persistent and stubbornness as Bai Fu was truly a very talented individual.

So, he got nearer to him, in order to talk more about what he planned to do and what he needed the help with, ignoring the way the old Bai Family pale at the sight of his grandson, while Green can only stay silent when Bai Fu has appeared feeling ashamed and guilt all over at what she has done toward her own brother.

The Emperor that has been ignored, secretly snort before red eyes room around the hall while taking along the situation that has happen calmly, not flinching one bit at the gruesome situation of his grandmother servant on the floor, nor the pale old man of the Bai Family or the quiet fair person.

Before his gaze has taken the pale face of the Queen Mother, his heart beating calmly, no sentimental emotion able to move his heart at the pitiful situation of his other living relative, only infinite hatred at the thought of what this person has done.

He sneered, red eyes flashing with chill, "When you killed the Imperial Crown Prince and my Prince Father, did it never occur into your mind that you will also has this day?"

The Queen Mother that wanted to open her mouth to ask her grandson Emperor to help her couldn't help but panic, cautiously staring at him, "W-What are you saying?"

Seeing that even in this situation, the Queen Mother still acting ignorant about what she has done.

"No need to act anymore Queen Mother, for killing your own children, causing all the chaos happening in the Rong Dynasty, you will soon get your retribution, along with that disgusting man."

Wei Lei Shan eyes widened in fright and alarm as she open her mouth to speak only for a howl of pain to echoed out loudly than ever, turning her head around, she saw the unforgettable scene that she will never forget for the rest of her life.

There her servant on the floor was screaming in pain, begging eyes with a sorrowful expression as she tried to open her mouth to speak to the person before her, but only to choke, cough and scream in pain every time she tried to speak.

The young man eyes only filled with intense hatred at the person on the ground, this was the person who took his ability to do what he love the most!

"How do you feel now? Pain? Fear? This was nothing from what you have done to me! You took away what I treasure the most! Day after Day, I live a miserable life! Feeling so envious of the people I work with since they are doing what I wanted to do the most my entire life!"

Crack Crack Crack, sound of the bone breaking apart as the man who can just easily cut through on the woman chest painlessly decided to torture the woman as he remove her ribs one by one with his bare hands that was miraculously healed!

Li Chen silently watching on how the young man brilliantly give the most pain to the woman while at the same time while also not affecting and damaging what they needed, not only was he keeping the woman awake and conscious, he also knows how to keep her alive, the young man sure got potential.

"Traitor be damn! To think that you also has the courage to even poison the Regent King and wanted to kill the Emperor! Such an unforgivable sin! Criminal like you deserve to die a painful death!"

Rong Nie waive his hand and a shadow guard immediately appear, and covered the mouth of the Queen Mother when she was unable to stop herself from screaming any longer from the scene before them, he doesn't want anyone to disrupt the situation proceeding at the moment.

He has been told about what is happening at the moment, and even knows the real relationship between at the young man that was currently opening the chest of the woman on the floor at the moment and he doesn't find it any cruel at all.

Rong Nie was tired of being kind to the other people anymore, rather than be the one to be hurt by others he rather feel cold emotion toward them. He will just need to feel gentle and kind to the people that he truly cherish the most.

Though, as he look at the fair person that was throwing up but still tightly holding the unconscious head of the Bai Family, knocked out when he tried to protect his granddaughter before Bai Fu started, at least this person will never have to witness the scene before them.

Unless the person holding him will tell him what happened while he was knocked out, though he can tell that a smart person will decide to not tell about how his grandson tortured his granddaughter.

Green who was in the floor no longer has any strength on herself as she can only allow her baby brother to open up her chest, until her beating heart was finally was visible outside, she knew what they wanted as her eyes weakly move to the silent and indifferent young man beside her baby brother.

The last cure has been her heart blood, where all the mystical energy has been building up after the years of the Regent King been poison, right now she can finally use the mystic energy that she was unable to use when she was stop from before and blow her heart out, taking the last antidote to heal the Regent King but now she can't do it at all.

If she does, she knew that person will do the same inhumanly torture to Bai Fu... even if she was being killed and torture into a miserable thing by him at this moment on, but this is her baby brother after all.

And this time... she is also unable to let the Regent King die... if he die then the Vow of eradicating all the Bai Family that Wang Lau has promise her in exchange of taking the Regent King life with her poison will come true.

The Vow of their exchange cannot be fulfilled as long as the Regent King live.

Green can't let the vow be fulfilled because among the Bai Family in that promise, her brother was also unknowingly included.

Ah... how cruel fate is.

She couldn't help but think if this was all karma coming back to bite her back?

If it really was, how cruel this world is.

The feelings and emotions she has felt this day, was something that cannot be fully explain in words along.

"AH!"

As she felt the pain on her heart, her vision beginning to blackened, the tears that she has been stubbornly holding back has flowed down on her faced, while the sound of her baby brother weeping voice echoed on her ears.

"Thank You! I... I didn't think that I will be able to use my hand again for the rest of my life! I.. I thought that I .. sobs... sobs."

Suddenly she felt relief, at least, her baby brother will be safe and will be able to fulfill his dream all along.

Green, Bai Biyu, has finally taken her last breath.

Ignoring the already dead woman on the floor, Li Chen is staring at the heart blood that was given by the sobbing young man beside him.

The heart blood has turned solid and into the shape of a ball.

Handsome face turning soft and gentle, dark ink eyes lighting up in excitement as he finally got the last item that he needed to fully cure his little Xen.
