Chapter 42 - The Past is Smoke

Moonlight is like water, and the top floor of the Star Peak's sutra depository is quiet and silent. Lin Jianxiao knelt on the futon, opposite the 1 white-haired elders. The candlelight flickered, reflecting the deep eyes of the elders, as if to see through the traces of the years.

 

"You came after all. "The elder stroked the 1 volumes of ancient books on the table, and his voice was vicissitudes and peaceful," as the prophecy said 20 years ago, the chaotic blood will eventually awaken on the star peak. "

 

Lin Jianxiao moved in his heart. This old man, known as the "Elder Xuanwu", has the highest seniority in the Star School and has witnessed too many secrets.

 

"Dare to ask..."

 

"Do you want to know about the Moyue Fairy?" Elder Xuanwu interrupted him, looking at the starry sky in the distance, "That's a dusty past. Twenty years ago, a snowy night, 1 a woman in white came to Xingchen Peak with a baby in her arms. Her face is peerless and her temperament is dusty, but her eyes are full of unspeakable sadness. "

 

Lin Jianxiao held his breath. This description is very similar to the woman he saw in his dream.

 

"That woman, is the ink moon fairy. "Elder Xuanwu continued, with his voice reminiscing," She is the last descendant of the Chaos clan and the last 1 peerless genius who can perfectly control the power of chaos. When she was alone, she just kept the secret of the chaotic bloodline from the hands of several great men. "

 

The candlelight throbbed softly, casting a flickering shadow on the wall.

 

"In fact, even earlier, the Star School was inextricably linked with the Chaos. "The old man's voice became deeper," 30,000 years ago, the last patriarch of the Chaos clan gave a prediction to our ancestors on his deathbed-when the catastrophe was approaching, the Chaos bloodline would surely awaken at the top of the stars, and the successor of Chaos Jade would be able to guide this force. "

 

Lin Jianxiao subconsciously touched the jade on his chest.

 

"The jade on your neck is the holy thing of the Chaos clan. "Elder Xuanwu sighed," Twenty years ago, Moyue Fairy left it with the baby and then faced those who were chasing it alone. Since then, no one has seen her again. "

 

"The fairy, she ..." Lin Jianxiao's voice trembled a little.

 

"She is your mother. "Elder Xuanwu looked him straight in the eye," she said as she left. One day you will return to the Star Peak and then you will understand everything. The mission of our Star School is to wait for this day. "

 

The night wind blew the bells outside the window, making a crisp sound.

 

"What exactly did that prophecy say?" Lin Jianxiao finally asked the biggest doubt in his heart.

 

Elder Xuanwu was silent for a moment and said slowly, "The prophecy says that when the nine stars are linked and the qi movement of heaven and earth is in disorder, the chaotic bloodline will be the key to saving the common people. And those who can bear this heavy responsibility must be the chaotic descendants bred by the power of the stars. "

 

"So back then..."

 

"Yes, the ink moon fairy chose the star peak, so that you can naturally come into contact with the power of the stars. "Elder Xuanwu's voice was filled with emotion," Over the past 20 years, forces from all sides have been looking for the whereabouts of the chaotic bloodline. Now that your blood is awakening, I'm afraid it will soon lead to a bigger storm. "

 

Lin Jianxiao was about to speak when he saw Elder Xuanwu suddenly take out a yellowed letter from his sleeve.

 

"This is the ink moon fairy left. She said that when your blood wakes up, you will naturally know how to open it. "The old man handed over the letterhead," as for other things, let's wait until you read the letter. "

 

Lin Jianxiao took the letterhead with both hands, only to feel a cold palm. On a snowy night twenty years ago, what did the mother who chose to face the chase alone in order to protect him leave behind in this letter?

 

"Remember," said Elder Xuanwu at last, "no matter what happens in the future, the Star School will always be your patron. This is not only because of the trust of the Moyue Fairy, but also because of the agreement 30,000 years ago. Chaos and stars, this is one. "

 

The deeper the night, the brighter the stars. This night's conversation revealed too many unknown secrets. However, Lin Jianxiao knew that this was only the beginning. The bigger secret is still hidden in the letter left by my mother.
