”That fairy's na about? Do youlady of the Ye family was the fairy that I met?”
When the Ye family had suddenly risen to prodoe of her life Fan Xian was not surprised at all He laughed ”Who else but the 'fairy' you speak of could turn the House of Ye into a name known all across the land in such a short ti oncecould rise so quickly They had the temple behind them”
”No,” said Fan Xian ”You're dying, so I'll tell you Ye Qingmei was the 'fairy' that you speak of She wasn't an immortal of the temple at all She was just like you andmore”
Xiao En still hadn't recovered fro Instead, he asked a question in his final moments ”Why did the fairy want to capture ?”
He had been the spymaster of Wei at the time, so naturally he knew of the connection between the Ye fa
”At the ti needed you dead” He paused for a mo figure The reason Ye Qing to capture you alive was because when you broke through into the temple, she was finally able to come to this world”
”Then who are you really?” Xiao En spluttered in between violent bouts of coughing In the dark night, his eyes, filled with dish he was dying, the old aze was still sharp Fan Xian couldn't help but feel slightly startled He laughed quietly ”Me?”
There was a e, so intiht he'd say those words out loud The night grew darker, reaching the darkest moment before the dawn In a cave with just two people in it, Fan Xian had quietly said those words

For some unknown reason, as the words left his lips, he felt a sudden calht it had been bearing, overturning the creeping vines and tendrils that covered it in an instant At least he had found soht air
Daylight came slowly
There were not ht came and went, Fan Xian had finally achieved his oal in this journey north He looked at Xiao En ”Is there anything else you want explained?” he asked quietly
Xiao En looked at hi ti ”You're her son?”
Fan Xian nodded and shed violently, letting loose a few more of the last drops of blood in his veins He looked like he wanted to laugh and cry at once ”No wonder you know so much No wonder you're so interested in where the te clearly He gasped for breath as he spoke ”It looks like you're not stuck in this cave”
”I've ” Fan Xian had already prepared everything He caaze intensely on Fan Xian
”If you want to live a good life, don't go to the tee He said nothing
Xiao En stopped looking at hiaze at the precipice over the ravine behind Fan Xian and frowned slightly It see A ht I was the kind of man who didn't fear death All I wanted was freedom Now death stares me in the face And now I know that everyone fears it”
”There is no one in this world who doesn't fear death” He didn't knohy, but Fan Xian looked at the dying man and slowly relaxed his left hand ”But perhaps death is not the end Perhaps you will find yourself in a strange neorld”
That was his greatest secret His greatest sorrow
Xiao En gazed into the distance, his bloodshot eyes fading ”Are you really the son of a fairy no, the son of Ye Qingmei?” He didn't wait for Fan Xian's response ”But you're so unlike her”
”You only saw her when she was four years old How can you be so sure?”
