Fengjiu spend 3 to 5 years in every mortal realm, she experince mostly job that she think it suit her. Start from helper, teacher, tea shop owner, cooking master, fortune teller she even become material art master, farmer and many more.


One day fengjiu feel bored with the mortal act so she decide to spend the day at the forest far from city, she just come to the city once in a while to help her provide necessities while for food she prefer to go hunting or fishing.


While she at other side of the forest near the river while fishing, her ear fox hear a bunch of people fighting. Although she not intend to interfere mortal life since it will make a changing, she come closer to see.


In a cliff he saw a man being surrounded around 20 people with all black costume with killing aura. A man seem to be hurt badly but still standing with a sword in his hand ready to fight.


But what come in surprice fengjiu gasp while seeing the man face and shout " Donghua" and running down the cliff to help him. When she come towards she materialize her tao zhu sword and attack those black man who appears are the assasin who try to kill Dijun whatever the story are.


In one lash she tossed them away from Donghua, while in an second she able to kill them all.
Quickly after that she reach Donghua and she look at him, the face was as pale as paper now. He lost most of his blood, his pulse is weak. His time is almost up.



He see fengjiu and smile
" I can't believe i can see you here xiao bai"


"Oh no stop talking let me heal you first Donghua"


" No no you must not do that, this is what it must be, listen xiao bai they seal my power so i'm just like a mortal here and every life that i go through, even so they keep my memory attach so i can remember all of the trial i've been through"


" Oh heavenly mother" fengjiu put Donghua in her laps and caress him with all her heart


" I miss you so much xiao bai"


" I miss you more than words can say Donghua"


"Look i think our fate start to changing, if not how can we meet in such a chance. Its must be fate pity both of us so they let us meet. How long its been xiao bai? "


"365 years Donghua"


"Hmm we will sure be together again xiao bai don't cry" Donghua wipe the tears from her eyes.


" You look beautiful xiao bai" Donghua cough blood. Fengjiu start to cry and hold him even tigher. No no no donghua don't leave me stay with me please i'm begging you "


" Don't cry xiao bai, be strong. I must leave now, until we meet again my love " he kiss Xiao bai softly.. with that  Donghua breath his last and left Fengjiu hugging his mortal body.


Feng jiu cry hysterical while hugging Donghua, can't believe what happen don't want to believe either.



After pass many hours while sobbing finally she realize that he is gone. She start to clean his wound, change his robe with clean one amd bury him near the cave at forest where she live for this time. She make a gravestone  not knowing dijun mortal name, and she doesnt want to write dijun name on it either she just write "my one and only"


And she materialize fuling flower and peachblossom petal that Dijun love the most.
With that Fengjiu spend another 30years grieving in the forest before she move to another mortal life.


The next mortal she head up, she end up being dress up like a man to make her easily move and she got over as a soldier in a Song Kingdom but with her capabilty she soon promote being captain.


And her job was to accompany young prince he is 10 years old. since Fengjiu never meet this young prince, the comrade tell her about this young prince sad history that eventhough he is a prince but he 's not being love by his family. He is concubine son, her mother die after giving birth to him, he is smart but not welcome in the Kingdom, his father also very strict to him, but since in the Kingdom among all the harem he is the only one born as a prince while others only born princess, thats why he is become crown prince and being adopted by the Queen. But the Queen hate him so mostly will treat him very bad.
Fengjiu feel bad already with the child story.


At the afternoon she come to the young prince chamber with her senior and being introduce as his guard.


"Xiao Jiu greet Crown Prince" with bowing


The prince look up at the new guard and drop his scroll. Fengjiu not yet see the young prince and keep her bowing.


The young prince with the smirk on his face said " rise" and give a sign to other left the room.
Fengjiu see other left while she stand still


"Xiao Jiu I can't believe this"


Hearing the sound of unbelievable she look up at the young prince but still have no clue
What is happening.


" Well well i see you not know who i am" the young prince said


" forgive me crown prince, i'm still new at this Kingdom so i' m still learning to adapt about the rule here. Is there any mistake i make crown prince"


The young prince come near her and told her to come lower as his height. As she lower her body the young prince suddenly hug her so tight make her jump in surprice since she never been this intimate beside Dijun and her family.


But the young prince hug her even stronger and whisper in her ears


" Don't scare xiao bai, it's me"


Hearing the crown prince call her xiao bai make her fall a sit on the floor while the young prince laugh out loud


" I can't believe it, how come i cross to you in two of my heavenly trial xiao bai, you are indeed full of surprice"


Fengjiu can't believe what she heard when she finally found her voice and slowly said
" Donghua?"


" Yes xiao bai, I'm Donghua"



She lost her words and stand back to hug him


" Heavenly mother, what on earth is happening, how is it even possible and look at you Donghua you are a kiddos, i never see you this young how am isupposed to recognize you with this look" she cry in surprice but can't hide her happiness in her eyes, she feel like hit the jackpot can see Donghua in his younger age.


" Thats what i said how can this being possible" but at least this trial will be so much fun with you around me


Their both laugh in happiness
