A Challenge of Striving
Once the palace which used to be full of glory and joy was filled up with sorrows. Once the palace which used to be filled up with color and light was filled up with darkness. He was devastated after hearing the news of his first queen's death. He was guilty and sad, he was angry with himself. He was drunk and lost in the maze and memories of his lover, that he forgot that he still had someone who was carrying the sign of his betray and fake love. Aiguo who thought he would be okay without Fen Ju was dying. When he heard the news that she took her own life on the way, he wanted to kill himself too. But death wasn't the thing he would get in return for breaking an innocent soul which gave him unconditional love and light of trust. A long way of suffering was waiting to get his worst, in the core of his heart when he would be left with nothing, like her.
Fen Ju closed her eyes while breathing heavily and fall on her knees after practicing for 5 hours. It was hard for her to strive in the rough weather of Bilura and the toughness of training for the trainees. If she was in her past form maybe it could be easy for her but for 2 years and half, she was inside the palace luxury which jammed her bones. She tried to get up but her knees gave up and she fell again on the cold surface of the snow.
Yang Li- I thought it will be hard for you to strive but seeing you, I think it's impossible for you to even survive.
Fen Ju looked behind her and saw Yang Li walking toward her. Trainees and trainers bowed a little.
Yang Li- I think you are really just a waste of time now. I thought you will be powerful enough but looks like you are already giving up.
Fen Ju looked at him with fire in her eyes which made him smile, as he knew he touched her weak point, neglecting and disgrading her,
Yang Li- What's up with those eyes? Look at those boys and girls, none gave up or even bend down while you just throw your sword. Have you decided to give up and be my slave instead of winning your freedom?
Fen Ju- Who said I am giving up,
She stood up and took a deep breath through her body was weak, her mind wasn't weak. He knew it and he used it. He knew that she was broken and only she could fix herself and the first step was making her realize her own worth.
Fen Ju- I will strive, I will win and I will get my freedom and pride again. 14 days, Let's have a fight between us. If I win, you will let me go.
Yang Li- What if I win?
Fen Ju- Do whatever you want to do with me.
Trainees and Trainers gasped hearing her challenge. All knew that there was no one who could fight Yang Li back but no one knew it was Fen Ju, the Aitics Warrior Princess who shook the battle of Taskas[One of the most dangerous and brutal wars of that time] at the age of 17.
Yang Li- 14 days from now on. Let me see how much fire you have inside to melt the ice of Bilura.
Duyi Chao shook his head and looked at Chang who was enjoying the drama a lot.
Duyi Chao- I thought we will get to see romance but I am just seeing action.
Chang- She is a warrior princess, so she has her pride and sense. Do you think Yang Li falls for someone normal that we will see normal romance?
Duyi Chao- Who do you think will win?
Chang smirked and looked at Duyi Chao.
Chang- JuJu.
NEAR A RIVER OF BILURA TENTS
-Yang Li is with 600 men.
-And something unusual?
- There is a girl named JuJu who seems special to Yang Li, she challenged him for a face-off after 14 days.
- Interesting, a girl who challenged The Great Emperor Yang Li.
-but there is one more thing, I don't think he is staying here without any reason,
- Whatever the reason is,Soon Peavlon will be ruled by me. By CARUS BRAN.
