"Valley Master Han...actually hit you?" Long Yitian suddenly felt heartbroken.

Even as cold-hearted as he was, upon learning that Han Yichen was his biological son, he unconsciously felt a little pity for him. And Han Shuying, she had carried this child for ten months and was connected to him by blood! Why would she treat her own child so cruelly? Was that Ouyang Huanggui truly that kind?

"I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. In the past seventeen years, I have seen that woman no more than thirty times. And... every time we met, she beat me up." Han Yichen raised his head to the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, as if trying to stop the tears from falling.

"It's really a sin..."

Long Yitian slowly stood up from the stone bench, walked slowly to Han Yichen, gently hugged him in his arms, and raised his hand to wipe away the tears on his face with his sleeve.

"I'm sorry, kid! I've been trapped at the bottom of the Cliff of Forgetfulness for sixteen years, and I never knew you existed." Long Yitian drooped his eyes slightly, and a tear rolled down the corner of his eye, falling "plop" on Han Yichen's face and melting into his lonely heart.

"You...you mean..."

Han Yichen suddenly stopped crying and looked in surprise at this man who he had only met a few times but was willing to give him the warmth of fatherly love.

"Young Master Han, I... am the biological father that you have always wanted to find but could not find!" Long Yitian raised his hand and gently stroked the head of the man in his arms with tenderness and loving care.

Although Long Yitian hated the woman who took away his innocence and caused him to suffer for eighteen years, Han Yichen... was innocent.
