Lin Yu never imagined that one day he would learn about his background in this way.
When he was little, he felt that his mother was very special.
His mother would secretly hide from him, fly to a very high tree branch, and play the flute.
They would dive into pools dozens of meters deep to catch fish.
During his childhood, in the years when he lacked his father's love and care, his mother was his hero, all-powerful.
Now that he has grown up and cultivated his skills, he feels more and more that his mother must have had an extraordinary background.
Hua Zhen's words have now precisely confirmed his guess!
My mother's background is indeed extraordinary!
They actually come from a powerful ancient martial arts family!
"But my mother has such a distinguished background, why was she severely injured and hunted down? Who in this world would dare to hunt down the young lady of an ancient martial arts family? Could it be the Divine Blood Clan?"
Lin Yu's eyes trembled, gradually turning bloodshot, revealing an undisguised ferocity.
Hua Zhen quickly explained, "Young Marshal Lin, please don't misunderstand, this matter has nothing to do with the Divine Blood Family! This is an internal struggle within your ancient martial arts family!"
"Huh?" Lin Yu suddenly raised his head and stared intently into Hua Zhen's eyes.
Hua Zhen felt a chill run down his spine and, not daring to keep him in suspense, quickly continued.
"This is a long story, let me explain it to you slowly!"
"Your mother was a close friend of the second young lady of the ancient martial arts family, the Duanmu family. I heard that she often stayed at the Duanmu family's house! However, one day, while she was staying at the Duanmu family's house, a shocking tragedy occurred at the Duanmu family's house. The entire Duanmu family was slaughtered overnight!"
"Only two people survived. One was the second young lady of the Duanmu family, and the other was your mother! The second young lady of the Duanmu family went mad that night and lost consciousness. People from other ancient martial arts families joined forces and went to the Yun family to demand an explanation. They said your mother was the murderer and demanded that the Yun family hand over your mother!"
"Your maternal grandfather, Yun He, the head of the Yun family, naturally disagreed and clashed with several other ancient martial arts families. That night, the Yun family was wiped out by the combined forces of the other ancient martial arts families. Your mother managed to escape and fled north to Yandu to seek protection from your maternal grandfather's old friend, Fang Tianhua, the leader of the martial arts alliance!"
Hearing this, Lin Yu understood the gist of it.
He immediately clenched his fists tightly, "Nonsense! How can an ancient martial arts family say that my mother is the murderer? My mother was perfectly fine, so why would she kill someone from the Duanmu family!"
Hua Zhen shook his head and said, "Because they believe your mother is insane!"
Madness?!
Lin Yu's pupils trembled.
Madness is a word often heard, whether in cultivation of immortality or martial arts.
Madness is to go mad! To fall into the demonic path!
Also known as being possessed by a demon!
Because cultivating oneself is inherently against the will of Heaven, it is easy to attract demons when meditating.
Once possessed by a demon, a person's personality will change drastically, and they may even become a ruthless killer who endangers the entire martial arts world!
Therefore, since ancient times, people in the martial arts world have been terrified of demons, and anyone who has fallen into demonic possession has the right to kill them!
I never imagined that the kind, gentle, and virtuous woman in my mind would be the big devil in other people's eyes!
"Absurd! Utterly absurd! My mother could never be a demon! What makes them say that!" Lin Yu clenched his fists tightly, his teeth grinding together.
Hua Zhen shook his head helplessly and sighed, "The reason they are so sure is because your maternal grandmother was also a demon! Your mother inherited your maternal grandmother's bloodline, and there is a high probability that she is also a demon!"
"What?" Lin Yu couldn't believe it.
Hua Zhen continued, “Your maternal grandmother was the eldest daughter of the Ao family, a family with divine bloodlines. She was also the only bloodline awakener in the Ao family of this generation. Her marriage to your maternal grandfather, Yunhe, was a political alliance! After the marriage, the relationship between the ancient martial arts and divine bloodlines, as well as between the North and the South, was eased, and our Great Xia ushered in a period of rapid development!”
"However, ten years after your maternal grandmother married into the Yun family, she returned to Yandu to visit relatives. That night, a shocking incident occurred in the Ao family! Your maternal grandmother went into a frenzy, killing anyone she saw! By the time the other families with divine bloodlines arrived, it was too late... The entire Ao family of over a hundred people had been slaughtered by your maternal grandmother! And your maternal grandmother escaped amidst the encirclement of the crowd, and her whereabouts remain unknown to this day!"
Lin Yu was covered in cold sweat and felt completely numb!
Hua Zhen's eyes showed some reluctance, but he still said, "Since then, both the divine bloodline families and the ancient martial arts families have reached a consensus that the bloodline of the Ao family has mutated. Once awakened, it will drive people mad! Coincidentally, your mother was also an awakener of the Ao family bloodline, so when the tragedy happened to the Duanmu family, everyone naturally thought of your mother!"
"No! No!" Lin Yu's face was pale, and he swayed as if he were about to collapse.
Even with his mental fortitude, hearing about his family's past still made him tremble uncontrollably. He found it hard to accept.
My mother and grandmother are both insane!
Who can accept this?
If one day he awakens his bloodline, will he also go mad?
Whoosh!
Lin Yu reached out and grabbed Hua Zhen's shoulder, staring into his eyes, and said through gritted teeth, "Are you sure you're not lying to me? Do you know what the consequences are for lying to me?"
This is just one person's opinion, and Lin Yu certainly wouldn't believe it easily.
Hua Zhen's eyes did not flinch at all; instead, his eyes gradually reddened. He gritted his teeth and said, "I, Hua Zhen, can swear that what I just said was not a joke, because I was the only survivor of the massacre of the Ao family by your grandmother!"
“I was only four years old then…I saw my parents lying in a pool of blood!”
After saying this, Hua Zhen closed his eyes tightly, and two lines of tears slowly slid down his cheeks.
Forehead!
Lin Yu's expression froze, and he subconsciously released Hua Zhen's shoulder.
He shook his head and kept backing away, his heart filled with complex emotions.
If we really talk about it, aren't Hua Zhen and I actually sworn enemies?
Hua Zhen took a deep breath and said, "So many years have passed, I've let this matter go! My parents were indebted to the Ao family back then! Besides, your grandmother was already insane at the time and didn't intend to kill anyone, so I won't hold this grudge against you!"
Lin Yu took a deep breath and it took him a long time to calm down.
He couldn't bring himself to apologize.
Because he knew that the other party didn't need it either.
He could tell from the other person's upright character and current status that the other person was by no means a narrow-minded person.
But deep down, he still felt a profound sense of indebtedness towards this man.
He thought for a moment and then asked, "I have investigated and found that when my mother came to Yandu, she fought a battle at the city gate. She was seriously injured in the battle. Do you know who she fought?"
