"Are you saying that the two guardian warriors are Xiao Longnu from 'The Return of the Condor Heroes' and Yan Nantian from 'The Peerless Twins?”
Yun Fei looked at Zi Wei in disbelief."There's actually such a thing in this world? Where did the Guardian Martial God come from?”
" Let's start with the origin of the Big Dipper and the Southern Dipper," Zi Wei said with a solemn expression." It happened during the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. It started with the Zheng family's Eastcalm Dynasty…"
Zheng Jing was the eldest son of Zheng Chenggong. He inherited Zheng Chenggong's title of Yanping Prince and became the third generation King of Dongning Dynasty.
When Zheng Chenggong attacked Taiwan, Zheng Jing stayed behind and had an affair with his younger brother's wet nurse, Zhao Niang, and gave birth to his son Zheng Kezang. Zheng Chenggong had ordered Zhao Niang to be executed, but Zheng Jing had hidden her. Zheng Chenggong was furious. He wanted Zheng Tai and Hong Xu to execute Zheng Jing, but they refused. As a result, the relationship between Taiwan and Amoy became tense.
After Zheng Chenggong's death, Huang Zhao, Xiao Gongchen, and others in Taiwan thought that Zheng Jing had offended Zheng Chenggong, so they supported Zheng Chenggong's fifth brother, Zheng Shishi, to be the governor of Yanping. On the other hand, Zheng Jing also announced that he would be granted the title of Prince of Yanping. He would compete with Zheng Shixi and the others, and the Zheng Dynasty would be divided into two.
Sun Ying and Li Juan, the founding fathers of the Northern Dipper Sect and Southern Dipper Sect, were classmates. They had taken Gui Kong as their master to learn the art of deception and spirit body possession. During their time as classmates, the two of them had a deep friendship and became sworn brothers. Sun Ying was the elder brother and Li Juan was the younger brother.
When Li Juan heard the news that Zheng Shixi was looking for talents, he could no longer endure the hardship and loneliness of learning in the mountains and decided to go down the mountain to seek wealth and honor from Zheng Shixi.
Sun Ying, on the other hand, felt that she was not good enough in her studies and wanted to further her studies. He was also reluctant to leave his teacher, so he told Li Juan that he would not leave the mountain for now and would stay by his teacher's side.
Thus, Li Juan left first. Before he left, he said to Sun Ying,"We brothers are sworn brothers. If I can obtain an important position from Zheng Shixi, Brother Sun, you must come and rely on me so that we can make contributions together.”
The two of them hugged each other and held hands tightly. In the end, they parted in tears.
Li Juan met Zheng Shixi, and Zheng Shixi saw that he was talented, so he let him lead the army to fight. Li Juan performed well and won many battles. Later, he was promoted to general.
During this period, Sun Ying was still learning from Mister Gui Kong in the mountains. He had learned more and Mister Gui Kong passed his secret knowledge to Sun Ying and let Sun Ying inherit the position of sect leader.
After Sun Ying finished his studies, he went down the mountain to seek refuge with Li Juan. Li Juan let Sun Ying live in his residence. Later, Li Juan learned that after he left the mountain, the devil passed the secret technique to Sun Ying and let Sun Ying inherit the sect leader. He was very jealous.
Li Juan took Sun Ying to see Zheng Shishi, the supervisor of Yanping. He did not expect Zheng Shishi to value Sun Ying's theory of deception. He secretly asked Li Juan,"I want to appoint Sun Ying as the Deputy Military Advisor. What do you think?"”
Li Juan was jealous of Sun Ying and secretly gritted his teeth. However, on the surface, he said,"Country Supervisor, Sun Ying and I are classmates and sworn brothers. Sun Ying is my sworn brother. Country Supervisor is willing to make my brother a deputy military advisor. However, my brother has just arrived in the commandery and hasn't made any achievements yet. I'm afraid others won't be convinced. After he has made achievements and won the respect of the people in the commandery, he will be appointed as the Deputy Military Advisor. This should be more appropriate.”
Zheng Shixi listened and did as Li Juan said.
During a private meeting, Li Juan asked Sun Ying,""Brother, you have already submitted to Yanping. Why don't you bring your family over to enjoy life?”
When Sun Ying heard this, she couldn't help but shed tears.""Back then, during the natural disasters and wars, my family members had long died in the wars. I only have a brother named Sun Ping. The two of us are wandering outside. After that, because I was single and sought refuge with Teacher Gui Kong, I lost contact with my brother Sun Ping. These years of war were frequent, and my brother Sun Ping is probably no longer alive.”
"So, Brother Yi doesn't miss your hometown?”Li Juan asked.
Sun Ying said sadly,"People are not plants. Who can forget their roots?" However, since his hometown was in Amoy on the other side of the mainland, how could it be easy to return to his hometown? Especially now that the Eastcalm Kingdom was split into two, it would be even more difficult to return to Amoy.”
A few months later, someone came to Sun Ying one day. That person said that his name was Ding Jianzhong, and he was from Fujian. He brought a letter from Sun Ying's brother, Sun Ping. Sun Ying received the letter. In the letter, Sun Ping spoke of the friendship between the brothers and hoped that Sun Ying could return to his hometown to reunite with the brothers and rebuild the Sun Clan. The tone of the letter was sincere and emotional. He could feel that Sun Ping was looking forward to Sun Ying's return to Xiameng as soon as possible.
Sun Ying couldn't help but shed tears after reading the letter. Then, he sent someone to warmly welcome Ding Jianzhong and wrote a letter asking him to bring it back. He wrote in the letter that he missed his hometown very much, but at present, there were two strong powers in Dongning, and the throne of Yanping Prince had not been decided yet. He could not return to Amoy immediately. After the dispute over the position of the Regional King is over, I will definitely return to my hometown to meet my brother.
Unexpectedly, Ding Jianzhong wasn't a native of Amoy, but Li Juan's confidant. Li Juan had tricked Sun Ying into replying and immediately ordered someone to imitate Sun Ying's handwriting, altering a few key words: "I'm staying in Taiwan because of my feelings. I'll definitely return to Amoy soon and serve Prince Zheng Jing.”
Li Juan handed the letter to Zheng Shixi and said,""Sun Ying has betrayed the commandery. Recently, he had an affair with the traitor Zheng Jing in Xiamu. I am loyal to the Supervisor. I have to give up my brotherhood and secretly stole a letter from Sun Ying's family.”
"What do you think we should do?" Zheng Shixi asked.
" If we let him go back to Amoy, I'm afraid it'll be detrimental to the country's governor..." Li Juan did not continue.
"Do we have to kill him?"
