Wan Fangting, the Wulin Alliance's greatest beauty, married its young leader, Zuo Xingzhi. The two were perfectly matched and lived in harmony, becoming the talk of the town.
Unfortunately, Wan Fangting was unable to conceive, so the couple carefully chose two orphaned twins to adopt from the Jishi Hall.
They were both exceptionally good-natured and gifted, and quickly mastered all of Zuo Xingzhi's skills.
But fate was cruel. Such a happy family ended up destroyed, with no one left alive.
Perhaps their old enemies from the demonic cult had come calling. They struck mercilessly and took Zuo Xingzhi's life. He was stabbed several times, and his body was mutilated beyond recognition.
The widow and her two sons knelt side by side, burning paper offerings in front of the funeral hall. The beautiful, delicate woman wept inconsolably, drawing one wolf and tiger after another out of hiding.
Wan Fangting was slow to catch on. Whenever someone used a discussion of the Wulin Alliance's affairs as an excuse to flirt with her, she would only wave them off and politely say, "How would I know anything about that? You should ask my two sons instead."
Wan Fangting truly was the very model of gentleness and kindness.
On the night Zuo Xingzhi died, he held his two sons in his arms and wept without stopping. Between sobs, he praised them: "You are both such good children, chosen by your mother..."
