"No...Yue Yan grew up without a mother's love and I couldn't be a good father as well. Heaven isn't that fair to every..." His voice came to a halt as Yue Hao stopped talking midway as his words ended incomplete.
His face had a look of regret and yearning for his son but he passed away while being in a kneeling position and a sword supported his hand.
"Don't leave me, master...." Little Cang Xue hugged Yue Hao's lifeless body.
She had lost a father-like figure from her life, her delicate heart shattered into pieces.
That night a heart-wrenching cry resounded in Phoenix city that shook the heart of anyone who heard.
Royal guards reached the scene and surrounded the area.
Emperor came to bring back his daughter and find out that the empress was behind it.
After this incident, he prisoned his wife and sent people to Yue Clan so they could come for giving the continent's Hero a burial.
A few days after Yue Hao's funeral...
Cang Xue was standing in front of Yue Hao's statue, she looked as if she was a different person. The Death of her master had changed her completely.
The naivety from before had disappeared, and the incident had hardened her heart for the rest of the people including Emperor Wuhan.
"I promise you, Master. This Cang Xue will take care of Yue Yan on your behalf."
An unwavering glint flickered in her eyes as she had made a decision that would change her fate completely.
The little princess didn't know the person she was going to take care of would trample the whole world for her and that even heaven would've to bow down his head against his stubborn heart.

The Haven city was abuzz with excitement and the sounds of music and laughter filled the air.
It was a special day, as the Trasia country's Princess was coming to stay in their city for studying under Xia Clan's Patriarch.
The celebration festival was held in the courtyard of the Xia Clan, where a large stage had been set up for traditional music and dance performances.
The courtyard was decorated with colorful streamers and lanterns hanging from the trees.
Many people were dressed in expensive clothing or costumes, adding to the lively atmosphere, all eager to welcome the Princess.
Food vendors had set up stalls around the perimeter of the courtyard, offering a variety of Haven city's special dishes for festivalgoers to enjoy. The smell of spiced meats and sweet desserts wafted through the air, making everyone's mouth water.
As the night deepened, approaching a carriage pulled by beasts could be heard.
The princess finally arrived, greeted by cheers and applause from the crowd.
She was a fourteen years old young girl, Her Blonde hair was falling down to her pale shoulder. Her twin peaks were not fully matured yet but it was well developed even at this age.
She had an otherworldly beauty that was hard to be seen in the mortal realm.
Cang Xue was dressed in a beautiful white dress and her beautiful scarlet eyes were searching for someone in the crowd.
The princess was welcomed with open arms, and everyone wanted to speak with her and hear about her journey.
The welcoming celebration continued into the night, with people dancing and celebrating the princess's arrival.
As the music began to play, people started to dance and the atmosphere became lively and festive.
Cang Xue found a special place to sit with the young miss of the Xia Clan who was similar to her age. Others weren't allowed to come here as it was reserved for both girls.
The daughter of the Xia Clan had muted pink hair that was tied at the bottom. Her purple eyes were filled with pride. She had an alluring figure like the young princess.
Cang Xue asked, "Why are they making fun of that kid, Yuena"
She saw a few young boys of other clans were sitting together and looking in their direction while making fun of thirteen years old.
'I'm feeling as if my Snow Phoenix Bloodline yearning for that boy's presence. Why is it happening?'
Cang Xue had come to this place to find her master's son but since she arrived here her Bloodline was getting attracted to an unknown force.
"You know we are ourselves not much older than him yet you're calling him a kid. He is Yue Yan of the Yue clan.
He was born with a broken meridian so everyone makes fun of him by calling him trash." The pink-haired girl said in a nonchalant voice.
'Ah... that's master's son. Why my Bloodline is reacting towards him.'
Cang Xue's heart jumbled in emotions as she realized the person she had come here for and the person her Bloodline power was reacting to was the same.
"That's a pity. Do his clan and family not care when others Bully him". The young princess asked while a mysterious glint flickered in her eyes.
"Even in the royal family if you have a bad talent you will face a similar fate to him. Unless you're the sole heir to the throne. You should be aware of that.
His clan would have sent him to branch family and abandoned him after his father passed away last year.
But he was engaged to me before we were even born. So Yue Clan is keeping him as a treasure to maintain a good relationship with our clan.
However, grandpa was saying he would break the engagement on my fifteenth birthday." Young miss of Xia clan said.
