"My two masters have changed my fate. Without them, I might not even be alive today." Yun Che said with some emotion. After sighing, he immediately thought of the thing he should tell his parents the most, and quickly said: "Dad, Mom, didn't you just ask me where the family master's order came from... I met Grandpa in the Profound Sky Continent!"
Yun Che’s words made Yun Qinghong shudder violently, and he cried out incoherently: “Grandfather? Which grandfather… Which grandfather!?”
"My biological grandfather, my father's father, the Demon King of the Illusory Demon Realm... Yun Canghai!"
"The Patriarch Order was given to me by my grandfather, asking me to bring it back to the Yun Family one day."
"＊＊＊＊Novel Ah!" Mu Yurou exclaimed and covered her lips with her hands.
Phew!!
A violent wind surged in front of Yun Che. Yun Qinghong teleported over instantly and grabbed Yun Che’s arms tightly with both hands. In his excitement, he had no time to control his strength and almost broke Yun Che’s arm bones: “You… you really saw your grandfather… where did you see him… where is he… where is he now… is he okay now…”
The news of Xiao Ying's death had made him very upset, and now he suddenly heard the news about his father. Yun Qinghong's heart and soul might have never experienced such ups and downs in his life. A hundred years, a full hundred years, he had not seen his father again, and he didn't even know whether he was dead or alive...
Yun Che understood that Yun Qinghong must have wanted to know his father’s whereabouts and safety in his dreams. Thinking of the sixteen months under the sword-controlling stage at the Heavenly Sword Villa, his heart suddenly felt sour, and he slowly narrated: “Not long after my profound veins were reborn and I began to cultivate my profound strength, I joined the Blue Wind Profound Palace of the Blue Wind Nation, and then represented the Blue Wind Royal Family to participate in the ranking battle of the major forces in the Blue Wind Nation. The location of this Blue Wind ranking battle was the Heavenly Sword Villa.”
"Heavenly Sword Villa" is a place that Yun Qinghong and Mu Yurou will never forget until their death. Back then, they went through many hardships and used the Xuan Gang Soul Capture to get the news from a person in the Heavenly Mighty Sword Domain that Yun Canghai was not dead, but was imprisoned. The place of imprisonment was Cangfeng Country... Heavenly Sword Villa!
Yun Che immediately sent him to participate in the ranking battle. After the battle, he was led by Ling Kun of Tianwei Sword Region to "visit" the ceremony of sealing the "demon". The "demon" went mad under Ling Kun's words and put Xia Yuanba in danger. He told the whole story of how he was sealed under the Sword Control Platform together with the "demon" in order to save Xia Yuanba.
"At that time, I could never have imagined that the 'demon' would be my grandfather. My grandfather's body was bound by the Starfall Chain, and his profound strength was suppressed by the Heavenly Might Soul Suppression Formation... He was suppressed to the point where he could only release the power of the Emperor Profound Realm, and then suppressed by the Xing Tian Sword into the dark underground..."
"...I was beaten half to death by my grandfather. After I recovered from my injuries, I practiced very hard, just to kill my grandfather so that I could get out...Until one day, my grandfather recognized the Samsara Mirror I took out, and then he forced out my Xuan Gang Seal, and finally melted my blood to recognize my relationship...I realized that he was actually my grandfather."
Yun Qinghong and Mu Yurou were stunned for a long time. More than 20 years ago, although they knew where Yun Canghai was, they almost lost their lives and could not get close to him, let alone meet him. They could not imagine how Yun Che found him... At this moment, they heard the answer. The whole process was so bizarre, so bizarre that it was unbelievable.
"It must be God's will! It must be God's will that you and your grandson meet in a distant world!" Yun Qinghong was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. One was a son who was exiled in the Profound Sky Continent, and the other was a father who was imprisoned in the Profound Sky Continent. They didn't know each other's existence, but they met by such a coincidence and such a bizarre meeting. It was God's will... It was really God's will!
Yun Che continued, “After my grandfather and I recognized each other, he told me the names of my biological parents and told me a lot about the Illusory Demon Realm. After that, he taught me how to practice and used his Xuan Gang to fight me day and night. In the end, he even spent a lot of energy to awaken my Xuan Gang. Then he gave me the things that he had preserved with his life for the past hundred years and asked me to take them back to the Illusory Demon Realm…”
“What happened next? Since you were able to get out from there, did your grandfather come out with you? Where is he now?” Yun Qinghong asked anxiously.
Yun Che’s expression darkened. He lowered his head and said softly, “The place where Grandpa and I were blocked was suppressed by the Xing Tian Sword. With my strength at that time, I could not break it at all. The Falling Star Chain that bound Grandpa, as well as the Suppressing Profound Array on the Xing Tian Sword, are all connected to Grandpa’s lifeline… In order to let me out, Grandpa gave me the thing he had been desperately protecting… and severed his own… heart vein…”
Yun Qinghong felt as if struck by lightning and staggered back a few steps.
Mu Yurou closed her eyes, covered her lips, and tears fell silently.
“That’s fine… That’s fine…” Yun Qinghong muttered to himself in despair, “He’s been imprisoned in a dark place for a hundred years… He’s suffered too much… That’s fine… That way, he won’t have to suffer anymore, he can be free… He can have a good rest… He can find the person he entrusted his life to before he dies, and he can see his own grandson, and he can save the child’s life with his own life… When his father leaves… he must be smiling…”
“Yes.” Yun Che nodded: “Grandpa, I went there with a smile on my face.”
"Hmm..." Yun Qinghong closed his eyes, and two lines of tears silently slid down his cheeks. He died with a smile... This was the only comfort in the heart-wrenching sadness.
"I brought back grandpa's body."
Yun Che took two steps back, and as the light of the Sky Poison Pearl flashed, the Eternal Hub appeared in front of him. After obtaining the Eternal Hub where Hong'er had been sleeping for who knows how many years, he placed Yun Canghai's body inside. Because lying in the Eternal Hub, even if tens of millions of years had passed, there would not be any damage or changes, as if the moment it was closed, the time inside was frozen forever.
Standing next to the Eternal Hub, Yun Qinghong was stunned for a long time. His hands were pressed on the temperatureless hub, and his body collapsed little by little until he knelt heavily on the ground.
The father in his memory, the demon king who dominated the fantasy demon world, was so vigorous and brilliant. There was no trace of time on his body, and he always liked to keep himself in the youngest state. When the father and son stood together, they looked like a pair of brothers of similar age.
But, in the Nexus of Eternity, there lies an old man... an old man who looks like he is about to die...
He was skinny, with a dry face, and his hair, beard, and eyebrows were all gray. He looked like a hideous and terrifying ghost. If it weren't for the unmistakable outline, he wouldn't have believed that this was his father... He couldn't even imagine how much torture he had endured to become like this...
“Father…” Yun Qinghong’s entire body was trembling, and the two words “father” he called out were filled with pain as if they were stained with blood. Yun Che raised his head and said softly, “Returning to my homeland must be one of Grandpa’s wishes… But please allow me to be willful and let Grandpa be buried later. I cannot let Grandpa die in vain… and I cannot let Grandpa bear the ‘crime’ after his death!”
Yun Qinghong lowered his head, his whole body shivering, and the sound of his teeth clenched tightly was so clear that it was unbearable to listen to.
“Hu…” Yun Che’s chest rose and fell heavily: “Dad, if you want to cry, just cry. Here, there are only your family. You are the father of Yun Xiao and me, but you are also… Grandpa’s son…”
Yun Che's words caused Yun Qinghong's defense to collapse instantly. The Yun family's head cried out in grief... From the time he was born till now, this was the first time he cried so freely.
Yun Che pulled Yun Xiao out. From the moment they walked in to the moment they walked out, they felt as if they were in another world.
“Are you feeling a little confused?” Yun Che looked at him and asked.
Yun Xiao shook his head and said, "I knew this day would come a long time ago. I always thought that when this day comes, I will be at a loss... But now, I feel more stable."
“It’s the same for me.” Yun Che smiled and said, “The reason is very simple. Although we both had homes before, our hearts were like floating duckweed. Now, I have found my homeland, and you have also learned about your life experience. Your parents who have been with you for more than 20 years have not lost anything, so of course you will feel more stable.”
“But I didn’t expect things to be so complicated. It feels like I’m listening to a bizarre story.” Yun Xiao said with emotion.
“Life is often far more bizarre and exciting than made-up stories.” Yun Che glanced at him and suddenly said, “Yun Xiao, since you already know your life story, you should change your name. Just call yourself… Xiao Yun!”
"Ah?" Yun Xiao was stunned for a moment, then nodded directly: "Okay! From now on, I will be called Xiao Yun! Even in front of outsiders, I will always call myself Xiao Yun! Otherwise, my father and mother in heaven will scold me to death for being an unfilial son."
“Hahahaha!” Yun Che laughed. After this day’s twist of fate and the shock to his soul, he truly felt that Yun Xiao had grown a lot. Perhaps, after knowing his life experience, he no longer felt the pressure, anxiety and confusion he had always felt, and found the clearest and most definite goal in life.
The two stood at the gate of the courtyard to prevent anyone from approaching and disturbing Yun Qinghong at this time. After the two of them were silent for a while, Yun Che suddenly asked: "Yun... um, Xiao Yun, have you seen the Little Demon Queen?"
"Yes, I have." Xiao Yun nodded. "In fact, over the years, the Little Demon Queen has come to visit father many times. Each time, she came alone and quietly, and no one else knew about it."
“It seems that the Little Demon Queen still trusts and respects Dad. Dad has also always been loyal to the Little Demon Queen, or the Demon King clan.” Yun Che pondered and said, “What kind of person is the Little Demon Queen?”
“Well… how should I put it…” Xiao Yun thought seriously for a while, then said hesitantly, “In fact, I haven’t seen the Little Demon Queen very often, and I’ve basically never dared to look at her straight in the eye, because every time I face the Little Demon Queen, I feel… a little scared.”
“Afraid?” Yun Che frowned.
“The Little Demon Queen’s aura is very scary.” Yun Xiao described it this way: “Even if I’m far away from her, I still feel like I can’t breathe. Her eyes are even scarier. I never dare to look her in the eye. Even if she stares at me, I’ll feel a chill all over my body…Her expression is the same. It’s as if no one has ever seen her smile. Her whole face is like… like it’s completely frozen.”
“Oh… So scary?” Yun Che’s eyes widened.
Xiao Yun tried hard to think of more information about the Little Demon Queen and continued, "The Little Demon Queen always wears gray clothes... not white-gray, but a dull gray. And... and... Oh! When my father and I talked about the Little Demon Queen, he said that she was a very cruel person. After the Little Demon Queen came to power a hundred years ago, she encountered a lot of opposition because she was a woman, and she killed many of those opponents, many of whom she killed herself. After that, almost everyone trembled with fear when they saw her, and never dared to be dissatisfied again."
“…She is indeed cruel and ruthless.” Yun Che’s eyes widened slightly. Following Xiao Yun’s description, his mind also sketched out the image of the Little Demon Queen: a middle-aged woman with eyes as sharp as knives, a terrifying appearance… or possibly ugly, a stiff and mean expression, an icy and bone-chilling aura, and wearing a deathly grey robe…
After finishing the outline, Yun Che couldn’t help but shudder… because he thought of the legendary Yin corpse evil spirit with a body covered in ashes. The degree of fit was as high as 90%!
