Chapter 14: Come Let Us Slightly Break You.

Cough

Cough

Snow weakly raised his sleeves as he cover his mouth, his small body shuddering in pain, amber eyes dimming down but remaining calm as always.

Eyes narrowing slightly as he felt a burst of weakness on his body, while lazily laying on a soft couch since he was currently resting in one of his base, a simple residence in the Rong Capital.

Small pink lip curving up, as he glance at the scroll laying on the desk away from where he was laying at, while the cold food on the table remain untouched since Snow doesn't feel a single appetite to eat any food this past few days but as he think of the food that Li Chen has cook before, his stomach couldn't help but make a rumbling sounds.

"Ah... My taste bud has been spoiled by Li Chen." Snow sighed since Li Chen food are extremely delicious, specially when he taste the leaves of the sweet potato that he has eaten before since this body specially like that vegetable, specially like the sweet potatoes.

Ah, Snow is unable to buy that ingredient even if he want to, since that plant doesn't exist in this world at all.

He could get it in his own trade shop but it was a waste of karma energy point, he will just wait for Li Chen to appear and make him cook his own food again.

And maybe, let the vegetable be planted in the Rong Dynasty, Snow was sure that Li Chen will accept his request if he ask him for it.

Li Chen can just get the seeds on his own system after all.

Ah, such a nice cheat to have and use, it was definitely a good decision when he plan to use Li Chen.

After resting for a while, Snow change his robe into a simple black brocade robe before sitting in front of a mirror as he began to use all kind of items as his appearance began to change into a more normal looking face but still looking adorable, the red tear mark under his eyes completely disappearing, as another small red mark which was dimmer than what he has appeared on his wrist before his amber eyes turning into murky gray eyes.

"Flake make sure that Li Chen system will not be able to detect my presence and locations."

"Okay! Don't worry about it Snow, I got it all covered up!" Flake boasted with a childish voice while feeling happy that he can be of help to Snow.

Snow flash Flake a smile before leaving the room, with a small bag along with a complicated tools on it.

A minutes later, Snow was sitting on a chair with a small table on his front in a busy market and entertainment place of the Capital while people all around was walking before him as they do their own business.

All kind of people with different background keep passing by the small set up place of where Snow was at, some people sometimes stopping by as they asked Snow some simple question while other times a quite complicated one, the people who stop by payed copper coins, sometimes being given a silver coins after Snow has calculate the answer that they wanted to know.

Yes, Snow was currently doing a fortune telling or divination at the moment and has set it up in one of the places around the busy place in the Rong Dynasty where all different people pass by.

Some are rich second generation,a martial arts men, noble ladies chuckling happily but most of all are the normal civilize people.

There wasn't any suspicious about what was Snow was currently doing because there are also other people that has set up the same thing far away from where he was at.

After two hours, a person with a tall and sturdy body appeared as he walk out a door just a few distance away from Snow location, the man has a handsome appearance with a slight overbearing air around him with his short black hair and a light blue eyes and when he was walking almost near him, Snow raise his head slightly, hands holding a slightly glowing crystal ball with a mysterious rune as he open his mouth toward the now closer man.

"I apologize but Sir, the blue ribbon in your memories seem to have been gone a long time ago."

As soon as the words was let out, the man suddenly stop and stood till before the air around him seemed to have gone lower as he turned his head around to the person that has just spoken, seemingly knowing that he was the person that the words was meant to.

Murky gray eyes immediately locking with a wide light blue eyes, before it narrowed down dangerously as a deep voice talk to him expressionlessly.

"... What?" a single word without emotion but carried a lingering threat.

Snow remaining calm, as the crystal ball on his hand, glowed more brighter, mysterious rune start to move around as the murky gray eyes, goes unfocused after the person before him has spoken.

"The blue ribbon has change, the red line that has been destined with has mysteriously been cut down... the promise made can no longer be fulfilled... it was not forgotten but because it has change and no longer the same... AH!" a small cry of pain immediately sounded out as Snow words was cut down before his consciousness came back as murky gray eyes become focused and has locked eyes with a disturbed but hard light blue eyes that is currently staring intensely at him.

"Ah.. Sir... I apologize... I sometimes can't tell what I was saying... since I just speak what I was being shown..." Snow humbly bow his head down as he apologize to the person that was currently gripping tightly on his thin arm.

"Can you... please.. release my arm? Sir... it hurts." Snow weakly asked with a pain voice, causing the man to lessen his grip, light blue eyes still apprehensive about what he just heard.

"Come with me." the man said but there is a certain authority about him that his word cannot be denied, voice still remaining strong but his handsome face has been turning pale white, showing that he was not unaffected from what he just heard.

He knows that sometimes, the people who does fortune telling are not at all true and cannot be trusted but there has been a key word that has been spoken, he is unable to ignored it.

It was a certain secret that he has only known and the only other person that has known it has long been forgotten about it.

Murky gray eyes flashing with doubt, but knowing that he was unable to run away, uncertainly nodding his head before lowering his head down as he was pulled along by the man to a certain place.

Unknown to the person, Snow murky gray eyes flashing before his lip curving up a little bit.

Got you, Shao Feng.

In the third floor of a restaurant building, two people remain inside the room, while a four strong looking men was currently guarding the door outside the room.

"Explain what you has spoken."

The man ordered as the light blue eyes flash ominously as he remember the words that he just heard from this fortune telling person, his blue eyes glancing at the slightly dim red mark on the man wrist, knowing that this person has been born a fair.

Fair person has been known for being good in mystic arts, specially has a good talent regrading in divination.

"Yes Sir." Snow bow his head, knowing that people who does divination has more in depth about what they has just divination and known certain details about it.

Murky gray eyes flashing uncertainly, seeming afraid of what the man reaction will be about his explanation the Feng seemed to has seen the fair person unease thus he spoke to let him relax.

"Do not worry, I will not harm you. I just want to know what you just divine, but if I know that you are lying to me..." the man light blue eyes narrowing down dangerously at his last words in a threatening manner.

Snow frail body shudder before raising his head, murky gray eyes flashing in determination as he make his vow, "Sir, Please believe me, although this humble person is not that known and famous around this place but I pledge that I have never lied about any of my divination and all the words that I has and will be spoken are all the thing that I have know and saw. There will not be a single lies about it."

Biting one of his finger, Snow raise his now bloody finger as he raise it up as he spoken his vow before pressing it over his heart, watching as a mysterious rune appear in the air before entering and disappearing toward where Snow heart is.

Shao Feng eyes widened, he knows that vow cannot be broken or else the person will die and their soul will disappear unable to reincarnate, that is why Feng body suddenly goes stiff as deep down there was still a voice that was telling him that all of this person was telling him might not be at all true.

The last hope inside him disappeared causing his body to shudder, as he felt a bad premonition as he watch the person before him began to explain what he has just been divine.

"Sir... when I said that the blue ribbon in your memories seemed to have been gone a long time ago... it meant that person is no longer here in this world..."

"IMPOSSIBLE!" the man couldn't help but stand up and yell when he heard that words, opening his mouth to tell that he was lying before quieting down immediately as Feng remember the vow that this person has just made, and seeing that he was still alive and not dead cause him to be weak on his knees, his hand couldn't help but grip the handle on the chair to keep him standing still.

Snow biting his lip before continuing, secretly sympathizing with this person because although all of this are part of his plan, but all he has been telling are all true after all, there was not a single lie, but Snow knew that it has to be done, this person is necessary and can be use in a long run, specially for this Dynasty as this man is a really talented person, something that the Dynasty can be benefited from.

Rather than being use by his enemies because of a certain false belief, its better for Snow to use him and telling this person the truth no matter how cruel it is was the least that Snow could do and give to this person as equal exchange.

In the future that Rong Xen has died, Shao Feng has never known the truth, believing that the person he has been following all along was the person that he has been in love with, not knowing that the person has been an entirely different person.

"The blue ribbon has change, mean that it was no longer the same person, red line that has been destined with has mysteriously been cut down, meant that Sir and the real blue ribbon are destined to be together in this life but a strong powerful mysterious being has forcefully change your destiny and can no longer be together with the person in your heart in this lifetime... so the promise that Sir and the Blue Ribbon has made cannot be fulfilled since the blue ribbon is no longer the same person and was not the one that Sir has made a promise into..."

Snow finish speaking all the words and turning quiet as the man before him has knelt in the ground, hand covering his face as his chest keep going up and down really fast, seemed to be breathing really hard.

Shao Feng was no longer the strong and powerful man that he was known for before Snow very eyes, only deep loneliness and despair that can be feel around him.

This person, Shao Feng has been one of Xiao Feiyu lover, the only different was that among the people on Feiyu harem was the fact that this person has truly love the original Xiao Feiyu and not the person that has taken over the body of Xiao Feiyu, Wei Zhou.

Although, Wei Zhou has the God blessing on him, but it was not entirely powerful enough to change a person feeling toward another person, specially when that person has really strong and deep feeling to a certain someone.

If he was really able to change a person feeling so easily, then he would have been love by everyone in the world.

So over his God blessing to charming the people around him, it was not completely a perfect skill, there is always a weakness about it.

And this Shao Feng has shown it because despite being a lover to Xiao Feiyu, he has never went into more in depth with him, just a hugs and a kisses but has never cross the line with Xiao Feiyu, because deep down, he felt that there was something wrong but was unable to tell what it was.

So all he has done is just to follow along in the whirlwind of events, and protecting Xiao Feiyu with all his heart.

It was the reason why, he became one of the best allies with the Wang Family, because Xiao Feiyu became a part of it as the wife of Wang Lou.

Emotionally, Snow can respect this person, although the original Xen seemed to feel certain complex emotion toward him, well the two of them has complicated love life.

"... can... he still be... save...?" a hopeful horse voice suddenly asked causing Snow to raise his head and stare at the currently still kneeling man before him, this worlds is quite mysterious, possessing someone body can be easily believable, that is why Shao Feng reacting this way and asking question can be understood about why he has already accepting the truth about what he was being told into.

Added to the fact that Snow just did the vow, meant that all of this was all true.

"... Sir... although I have long heard about a person body being possessed... I have never heard of a soul being able to truly live in a foreign body for a long time... and since that person was able to live so easily meant that he was very powerful or... a certain powerful being was the one who just did it."

"... What are you trying to tell?" an exhausted voice asked seemingly knowing the answer already but still refuse to accept the truth.

Snow sighed, "Sir... the true person has long disappeared, meant that the soul was either been pushed out of the body... but based from what I just saw... the soul has been overtaken... and has a low chance of being able to rein-..."

"Enough!" Shao Feng roar so loudly that the people guarding outside seemed to have been surprise, but knowing that they have been order not to enter the room without permission, they can only stay still and guard from outside.

Bang!

The man suddenly punch the ground with his fist, the wooden floor breaking under his hands, causing the fair person murky gray eyes widened in fear as he back away from the now seemingly madden man before him.

Light blue eyes turning into bloodshot eyes, as murderous air was being emitted around his body.

"Sir... you cannot take action without reasonable plan... Sir... if you want to have the chance to save the soul of the Blue Ribbon there was a last image and words I saw in my last divination..."

Murky Gray Eyes worriedly looking at him, causing the man to stop still when he tried to stand up as he become quite suddenly that it felt creepy, Snow felt that the man is really going to completely break down so he still continue to speak to get the man to be more rational, better to be slightly crazy than turning more crazier and truly losing his mind.

Shao Feng still has his use, there was no way that Snow is letting the man to truly break down and turn unusable on his plan.

"Sir... it was an item...it was a large and long exquisite mirror full of mystical runes... let the person stand before it, as it can show the truth regarding a person soul... I saw that it was an item pass down from a noble family... it was mainly use to see if people was being use and manipulated... but it also work with a person being possess by certain soul or being..."

The man body shudder, light blue eyes slowly lighting up as he listen intensely about the words being spoken by the fair person before him.

Snow secretly smiling in his mind, but outside, his murky gray eyes was showing a worried expression but his soft voice carrying a strong determination, like he believe about what he was telling causing Shao Feng to believe on him too.

"So .... Sir... if you can see in the mirror image of two person that's mean that the original soul is still in there, although the true blue ribbon is unable to live anymore, but you can still save the soul of the person that was overwhelm, making the person being able to live and reincarnate in another life time."

It was quite for a moment, before a horse voice which filled with a hint of certain hope and despair spoke, "... I got it... thank you... I would have been in dark not knowing anything at all..."

"Sir doesn't have to thank, this humble person is just doing what it was supposed to do."

Snow bow his head, eyes flashing in slyly, now let see how this person will act from now on.

After a few more minutes later as Shao Feng tried to get a hold of himself,

"I'll give you a reward, please stay in this place for now. This Restaurant has great food, order any food that you like, I'll be paying all of it. I'll just handle a few thing for a bit and I'll be back soon."

Shao Feng walk over to the door opening and closing it and ordering the people outside.

"Guard him, don't let him leave this place."

Glancing at the room deeply one last time before walking away. Although, there is still slight suspicious about the person inside the room, the main reason why he wanted to keep the person was because he was talented in divination.

It was quite rare, and having one among his people is a good thing, he will try to get this person to work for him but for now he needed to handle certain thing and a few more times to calm his mind.

Although, he was able to think and react, it doesn't change the fact that his mind is still quite affected, thus it didn't cross his mind at all, that the person might have someone with him or even have the ability to get out by himself.

Meanwhile, Snow secretly left the room by using the window, leaving a certain scroll in the room while he was at it, he knew that the reason why he was able to easily leave the place was because a mystic art user is usually weak physically, not knowing that he was also a martial artist thus being able to leave the room without any problem by just using the window.

Snow then walk into a crowded area, before turning left and walking into an alley, completely disappearing, the fair person with dim red mark on his wrist with a murky gray eyes has never appeared again in the market and entertainment place in the Capital of Rong Dynasty.

Before long, a group of people left the restaurant as they began to run around the place seemingly looking for a certain person.

"Young Master, we are unable to find the person you are looking for. It seemed that he was not alone and has someone with him, thus we cannot find his trail at all." a person wearing an armor reported as he bowed his head.

Shao Feng frowned, dismissing the people around him before opening the scroll that was left behind and a painting of a large mirror appear before his eyes, along with the words that has been divination and spoken between them and the name of the mirror, Verify Mystic Mirror.

And at the lower part of the scroll was a letter that was left for him.

"Sir, I apologize for leaving without saying goodbye, I just want to freely do divination in my life, but sometimes I saw complicated one just like the one just now from time to time. I can only leave you the image of the mirror that I saw in my divination as the only last thing that I could help you with.

There is also one thing that I didn't tell you about regarding the Mirror Sir because I know that it would cause me trouble so I didn't have the courage enough to tell you about it in person.

Sir I just want to live a simple and easy life along with my Husband, thus I am unable to tell you about this in person.

Around the Mirror, I saw a purple air around along with it, and it was a sign of the people that the mirror belong into.

Sir I know that you are smart enough to tell who the mirror belong into, you should have known why I was unable to tell you about this.

I wish you luck and hope that you are able to help your Blue Ribbon."
