The Dragon Warrior Pair
DWP 6: Moon Snow Island
The Spirit of the White who changed his form from a beautiful woman to a White Dragon can quickly reach the Snow Moon Island in just a full day.
Xue Bingyue still remembered that when she had taken her father to Yunfei City, they had traveled for almost three days. But now he arrived at an island as white as snow and filled with the frozen ground in just one day.
During the journey Jing Yang unceasingly dispelled Xue Bingyue's fear of heights. The little girl looked at the vast sea of clouds, on the way the White Spirit channeled its aura to Xue Bingyue and Jing Yang so that the two of them would still feel warm even in height.
The bodies of Xue Bingyue and Jing Yang were wrapped in white-colored aura. They both laughed, though there was still sadness left. Both bodies were wrapped in thick blankets, very thick.
Arriving at the Moon Snow Island, the White Spirit sent down Xue Bingyue and Jing Yang in a forest on the island.
“Man's son. I can't get out of this necklace for eight years. So I can't help you when you're in danger. I used my powers without your help. And this is very dangerous for my spirit.” The White Spirit faded and entered into Xue Bingyue's Ice Crystal Necklace.
“Thanks.” Xue Bingyue smiled sweetly, yet she forgot to ask the real name of the Spirit of the White One, ‘By the way, what is his name?’
Jing Yang had just first set foot on Moon Snow Island instantly shivered violently, “Yue, where is your home?” Jing Yang's hand tightly grasped Xue Bingyue's hand.
“I remember this. We just need to go down this high forest slope.” Xue Bingyue led Jing Yang towards the outskirts of the forest.
There is a slope of a plateau filled with snowy land. And where the two of them landed was the forest on the plateau.
Xue Bingyue and Jing Yang went down the slope both. Before the day turned night, Xue Bingyue and Jing Yang arrived at the resident settlement.
“Young Miss Bingyue!”
"Call Chairman Xue Qinghua!"
The residents who were the female warriors from the Moon Snow Island shouted. After thirty minutes at sunset, a middle-aged female figure named Xue Qinghua came together with the male swordsman and female swordsman from the Moon Snow Island.
Xue Bingyue and Jing Yang held hands to warm each other up. It was not long before Xue Qinghua who had just come directly hugged the body of her beloved granddaughter.
“Yueyue!” Xue Qinghua cried seeing her beloved granddaughter still alive. However, it was undeniable that Xue Bingyue was mentally shaky.
Xue Bingyue was speechless. The little girl could only cry. Realizing that his favorite grandson had come with his peers, Xue Qinghua had embraced Jing Yang as well.
Then Xue Qinghua brought Xue Bingyue and Jing Yang into the Snow Moon Pavilion.
Inside the Snow Moon Pavilion, Xue Bingyue directly had the female swordsman boil some warm water for her favorite granddaughter as well as Jing Yang.
Xue Qinghua had already heard about Yunfei City which had become the battleground of the swordsmen of the Shi Empire and the black stream sect that existed in the Jiang Empire. But he did not expect his favorite grandson to still survive, so he could not hide his happiness.
“Yueyue, can I stay here?” Jing Yang looked at Xue Bingyue who was sitting beside him. Both of their hands are still holding.
Xue Bingyue looked at Jing Yang and smiled faintly, “Of course I can. I want you to stay here. Don't leave me alone.” Selfishly, Xue Bingyue looked like she was forcing Jing Yang to settle down on Moon Snow Island and live with her.
Jing Yang turned his gaze to look at Xue Qinghua to express what was in his heart, “Thank you Granny.” Even Xue Qinghua had not said she agreed, Jing Yang had already thanked her.
Xue Qinghua smiled at Jing Yang's attitude, “Nak, can you tell me what your name is and where you're from?” Hearing that, Jing Yang's head nodded slowly.
“My name is Jing Yang. The son of an imperial swordsman named Jing Tian and Third Princess Jian Lian." Suddenly Xue Qinghua was shocked, but not with Xue Bingyue who already knew Jing Yang's identity.
“A few days before I was with Father and Mother heading to Yunfei City.” Jing Yang told Xue Qinghua and Xue Bingyue that he was with his parents about vacationing in Yunfei City, but the disastrous event occurred which was a bloody night massacre in Yunfei City.
Xue Qinghua hugged Jing Yang and Xue Bingyue when Jing Yang finished telling her story. The young man looked tough, but his cries broke and he kept telling everything to Xue Qinghua. Even Xue Bingyue hugged Jing Yang's body and cried profusely.
The night passed with the cries of Jing Yang and Xue Bingyue. They both slept in bed with thick blankets.
Xue Qinghua smiled seeing her beloved granddaughter hug Jing Yang's body while asleep, and vice versa. The middle-aged woman realized that Jing Yang and Xue Jingyue had already understood each other because the two of them had both been victims of the bloody night massacre in Yunfei City and now they had become orphans.
The feelings of pain and sadness Jing Yang and Xue Bingyue fused together. They both encourage each other with action, looking at each other because they feel and love each other because they love each other.
The next day, Xue Bingyue and Jing Yang still remained inside the room. Just two. It looks like the two five-year-old children are still mentally shaky.
However inside the room, Jing Yang was trying to make Xue Bingyue laugh. The five-year-old recounted his experience of drowning in a river and being rescued by his father.
After he finished telling the story, Xue Bingyue came back crying and hugged Jing Yang's body. The young man also cried because he saw the little girl who hugged him still in a state of sadness just like him.
Day after day Jing Yang and Xue Bingyue passed to recover their shaky and broken mental wounds. Jing Yang and Xue Bingyue for five days were only inside the room.
The two of them only do light activities such as telling stories, after which only eat and shower.
And it did not feel seven days after that terrible event. The events that took the lives of their two parents, both Jing Yang and Xue Bingyue stared at each other and made a mutual determination.
News of Jiang Lian's death spread quickly to the Jiang Empire. And it made Jing Yang remember how his beloved mother died in such a horrible way.
Inside the room of the Snow Moon Pavilion, Jing Yang and Xue Bingyue had already chatted for a long time. They both intend to learn and train their martial skills so as not to lose their loved ones again. They both want to protect each other and keep a promise.
“Yueyue, I will become a strong swordsman to protect you. That's the thing I want to do now.” Jing Yang smiled faintly looking at Xue Bingyue who blushed in embarrassment.
The two beautiful eyeballs belonging to Xue Bingyue were twinkling, there was a feeling of guilt because Jing Yang's left eye could not open. Even Xue Qinghua considered Jing Yang's left eye to have received a permanent wound. It was not known if he had found someone who could heal those eye wounds.
“I just want to stay by your side. If you grow strong, then I must also be strong so that I remain by your side.” It was then that Xue Bingyue realized that she did not want to lose Jing Yang.
With deep wounds and a burning determination, Jing Yang and Xue Bingyue looked forward to whatever it was. They both need to keep walking.
