The memory of Chi Chengxin [2]

Devastated by the sudden attack Fēnglóng initiated on his son, Feng Renxing crumbled to his knees from weakness and despair. His eyes flew wide open as the heavy downpour of rain descended on his blood-drenched robes.

The Chi Clan disciples were completely wiped out by Fēnglóng's monstrous strikes. Many of them lay in a scarlet pool of their own blood. As the last remaining Chi disciple, Chi Liwen mustered the courage to confront Fēnglóng singlehandedly.

"Lord Feng!" She called out over her shoulder, deflecting Fēnglóng's tail with her arm which suffered severe damage under the mass of the beast's tail. "Go after Ah-Cheng! I will handle this!"

Chi Liwen's words fell on deaf ears. Consumed by his failure to protect his son and his shortcomings as a fatuous father, Feng Renxing's ears were clogged by the sound of rain and the wild gusts of the Zephyr Forest. The beast's roars and the war cries of the fight grew distant.
