God Slayer Chronicles Chapter 4

Whaaa! Whaaa!

"Madam, young master is wailing again . Why don't I look after him?" A pretty young girl asked, holding her arms out to take the young baby boy from his mothers' arms .

"No . Be gone with you Snow; I don't need your help he's mine . " The woman snorted, as she opened up her blouse to feed the child .

Whaaa! The child screamed even louder than before, refusing to drink from his mother's bosom .

"Come on little Chi; please eat . " The mother sobbed .

"Give Chi'er to Snow my dear, don't worry . You're frail anyway; you shouldn't be feeding him . " A man approached, taking the crying Yang Chi away, handing him over to Snow, who took him in both arms, while bouncing them up and down .

"Snow, go feed him in another room, I would speak with my wife . " He commanded her .

Bowing her head humbly, she left the room while holding Yang Chi tight .

The middle-aged man was tall and strong, standing with broad shoulders and long dark hair, sporting a beautiful beard and mustache . His face was angular, high cheekbones and a dimple on his chin were his best features . He was the type of man ladies would swoon over .

"My dear Ru Yi, please don't cry . The skies of my heart darken with every tear that falls from your celestial lotus like eyes . " The man sat next to the woman on a bed, as she leaned her head on his shoulder, crying into it .

"Yang Fu, I finally bore us a child . He doesn't even want to feed on me . " Ru Yi wept, unable to control her tears .

"My love, it no longer matters . You've finally given birth to a healthy boy . There is no need to worry . I promise you, that boy shall love you to the ends of the earth . You're his mother after all . " Yang Fu's words almost caught in his throat, remembering his disappointment in the past .

Long had he and Ru Yi been trying for a child . The first time was four years ago; unfortunately, the child was born blue, deformed and starved of air . Their beautiful baby girl had just been taken from them like that .

They sent for healers from all over the county of Zi, yet none had been able to save her . There was a small grave in the family estate with the encryption Yang Xiao, or little sun, in memory what could have been .

Unfortunately for both Ru Yi and Yang Fu, there wasn't only one grave marked Yang Xiao, but three . Even the Patriarch of the Yang Clan, grandfather of Yang Fu felt his heart burden by this matter, entering seclusion as to wallow in his pain .

Fortunately, this time was different though . Yang Fu and Ru Yi had both attended the same sect, and fallen in love there, both of them taking the same master .

This master was heartbroken by Yang Fu and Ru Yi's losses . He had taught them from their late teens, and he viewed them not only as his disciples but also his children!

Therefore he, Yang Fu's father – Yang Huo, and a close friend of theirs set out to find a fruit called the Holy Protection Fruit after they had read about it in an old book .

They vanished for four months, only Ru Yi and Yang Fu's master – Lao Zi returned, heavily injured . He would not speak of what happened, just returning with the fruit, then going into seclusion .

Just like that Yang Fu had lost his father and father, he alone was the chief protector of the Yang Clan, an almost impossible task . Even for someone as talented as him .
