Ming Yue's Past

"Who are you really YueYue?"

Ming Yue's body stilled for a second before releasing a sigh.

She glanced at the girl in front of her.

Her two eyes, like the starless sky in the dark and silent night, so black and quiet, undisturbed and peaceful.

With graceful and elegant temperament yet her aura, oppressive and heavy as a raging ocean within the storm.

So magnificent yet violently beautiful it can bring destruction everywhere.

This is a person with a lot of secrets and stories to tell.

'Like me.'

"I'll tell you a story."

She said as she put down her mask too.

Her face although that of the child, but without the normal expression a child would have. 

Silver eyes held a cold light, like the moon in the wintry night sky, so clear and breathtaking yet so cold that it can freeze everyone who'll look.

Face void of any emotions as she sat on the bed, ramrod straight, like that of a proud bamboo that bend to no one.

Her small body releasing a suffocating aura.

Like eternal ice covering the world that it can freeze everything.

This is the true Ming Yue.

The woman who was a famous and feared Martial Artist known as the Fairy Of Frost in the Hue Realm. 

Her life as a child was said to be tragic.

She was the concubine born daughter of the General Ming's Household in Black Empire, Ming Yue.

Her mother was just one of the ten women of the General.

Her mother, Concubine Fang Lina was very favored as she is a type of woman who can entice any men with her seductive figure and beautiful face like a fully blossomed flower, clearly a woman raised in the red light district.

Thus the General favored her greatly and visited her courtyard almost every day.

When the news came out that Concubine Fang Lina was pregnant, the general was very happy as he is always active in the night activity in the past when Concubine Fang Lina was not yet in the household and will visit different concubine every night but they didn't get pregnant.

He only have four daughters.

Twin daughter with his main wife, Eldest Miss Ming Yu and Second Miss Ming Ya.

Third Miss Ming Wan with his Fifth Concubine.

And Fourth Miss Ming Lou with his Third Concubine.

But he want a son to inherent his position.

After then he only visits Concubine Fang Lina's courtyard every day to accompany her, gaining the hatred and envy of all the general's women even more, especially his main wife.

The other concubine schemed their way in the Moonlight Courtyard, Concubine Fang Lina's courtyard.

However their schemes always failed as the general ordered a tight protection to the courtyard.

It shows how the general spoil the child even if the woman didn't give birth yet.

After nine months of carrying the child.

Concubine Fang Lina finally gave birth.

But... It was a baby daughter. Again.

The general was so disappointed that he left right away after knowing the child's gender.

The bigger the expectation, the stronger the disappointment is.

From then on he didn't visit the courtyard again, ignoring the well being of the mother and daughter pair.

The other concubines became brave because of it.

Concubine Fang Lina was said to be a formidable woman as the schemes thrown at her, she can manage to escaped it unscathed.

But her body became weaker and weaker by day after she gave birth to her daughter.

But her father didn't even invite a physician to see her mother.

She died when Ming Yue was only one year old.

Leaving her daughter without a parent to guide her.

Thus, she matured earlier than other children her age.

Her mother's trusted maid raised her with difficulty.

The servants in the residence didn't treat her like a miss in a household.

'Who would respect an unwanted illegitimate miss who's mother died?

They cut her monthly allowance, starving her and her guardian, the trusted maid of her mother, Li Li, who stays with her.

But she too...died when Ming Yue turned five years old.

The five years old child was left with no one in her simple and unadorned courtyard. 

There isn't any person left in her side.

Her father didn't want her.

They bullied her. 

Abused her.

Disdained her.

So... She left.

She became a beggar for one year before an old man see her fighting with her life when a group of men tried to sell her to a brothel.

The little girl's eyes is so cold as she eyes the men encircling her.

She swung her thin, short and twig like arms but what can it do?

They just laughed at her.

She was then caught.

The old man watch her and decided to make her his disciple.

He traveled from country to country to look for disciple to pass his teachings but he didn't see any child who is suitable with him, not fated with him.

But when he decided to live in seclusion to cultivate forever.

He saw this scene.

The child's bravery and courage.

In a situation where her life was in the line.

She remain cold and unbending.

So, he brought her to the tallest and most dangerous mountain in Black Empire, where he lives.

He treated her as his own child and train her to become stronger.

To protect herself from the cruel world.

He passed all his knowledge to her.

When she was ten years old, her master let her experienced the world outside.

She challenged powerful and strong Martial Artist and she always win.

Then she gained her own title, the 'Fairy Of Frost'.

In a blink of an eye, seven years have passed. 

She became a budding beauty that can bring destruction and ruin of an Empires and Countries. 

One day when she descended from the mountain. 

She met a young man, riding a strong white horse.

Looking so dashing and blinding.

She felt like her cold heart beat in an abnormal manner.

Her unmoved heart fluttered for the first time.

'He looks so beautiful.'

That's was the thought in her mind that moment.

The young man also saw her and fell in love with her beauty.

It was the legendary love at first sight for the two.

They said love cannot be measured by time.

It will just appear when you will see the right one for you or how you will interpret it.

'What is love?'

Of course not everyone will believe in it.

But for the two, it was.

From that moment.

They always see each other at the foot of the mountain.
