Chapter 270 Senior Brother, That’s All in the Past
"I am actually the son of the previous master of Baiyu Ling in Divine Doctor Valley. Ten years ago, all the members of Baiyu Ling were wiped out, and I was the only one who escaped."
Pei Luobai's voice was soft and calm, but Ye Linglong could hear the pain in it.
Even after ten years, he still remembers vividly the tragedy of his entire family being wiped out.
"I have inquired about this past. It is said that your father went astray and killed all the members of Bai Yuling's family. In the end, he was killed by the people of Danxin Hall. From then on, your family was expelled from the Divine Doctor Valley and became an unmentionable shame for the Divine Doctor Valley."
Pei Luobai sneered.
"Bai Yuling's sect was destroyed by Danxin Hall. My father is just an alchemy practitioner. No matter how obsessed he is, he doesn't have the ability to kill Bai Yuling and his entire sect by himself without leaving anyone alive!"
"I remember that night, all the people from Danxin Hall came. They were very polite when they came, as if they were visiting, so no one was on guard. Only my father hurriedly handed the pagoda to me and asked me to hide in the secret passage.
He told me that I must not come out no matter what happened. He wanted me to hand over the pagoda to the Divine Doctor Valley. If I couldn't do it, I should destroy it. I must not let it fall into the hands of Danxin Hall again.
I was two years older than you at the time. I was the only swordsman in Baiyu Ling. I was disobedient since I was a child and preferred sword training to alchemy. My father didn't care about me because he didn't think I had the talent to inherit his family lineage. But who would have thought that in the end, I would be the only one who could take away the pagoda.
Not long after my father hid me, Danxin Hall took action. I hid in the secret passage. I wanted to go out to save people, I wanted to fight, I wanted to live and die with Bai Yuling, but I couldn't. I could only listen to my relatives die one by one in pain, while I hid in the dark to survive. "
Pei Luobai took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
"If I remember correctly, the pagoda has always been the treasure of Danxin Hall. How did it end up in your father's hands?"
"Because once when he was a guest at Danxin Hall, my father accidentally discovered the secret of Danxin Hall. They were doing some unknown and insane things, so after he came back, he has been trying to get the pagoda. He wants to hand the pagoda over to the Divine Doctor Valley and let the Divine Doctor Valley deal with Danxin Hall."
“And then he did.”
"Yes, he did. He thought he did a good job, but Danxin Hall found out right away. Before he could hand over the pagoda to the Divine Doctor Valley, Danxin Hall came looking for him."
Hearing this, Ye Linglong sighed.
It seems that not everyone has the talent for counterfeiting.
"What happened next? Where did you go?"
"Later, I was discovered by the people from Danxin Hall. They chased me all the way. I wanted to go directly to the Divine Doctor Valley to hand it in to the Pagoda Tower, but before I got there..."
Pei Luobai's voice became low, and his body in the spirit pool kept shaking.
"Before you arrived, you heard the verdict from the Divine Doctor Valley. Your father went insane and killed the entire Bai Yuling family. Your family was expelled, and Danxin Hall was rewarded for killing him."
"I didn't expect the Divine Doctor Valley to make such a decision! If they had checked carefully, they would have known that my father would never do such a thing! Why did they help the Danxin Hall to frame my father? Why did they want our family to be wronged? It's ridiculous that before my father died, he asked me to hand over the pagoda to the Divine Doctor Valley so that they could handle it fairly!"
Pei Luobai took a deep breath, his voice trembling.
"My father trusts Divine Doctor Valley so much, and trusts his senior brother so much."
"It's so despairing. What can you do?"
"What should I do? I don't know what to do. I can only keep running, without hope, running aimlessly, fleeing with the pagoda all the way, fleeing to a place I don't know where. The world is so big, but there is no place for me to stay. Even my father's persistence is meaningless."
Ye Linglong sighed and placed his palm on Pei Luobai's shoulder.
"Later, I was chased by Danxin Hall and fell into a deep valley. I thought I was dead, but when I woke up, I was taken back to Qingxuan Sect."
Ye Linglong was stunned. It turned out that the senior brother was picked up like this.
"After you came back, didn't you think about revenge? Why do you suddenly want revenge now?"
"Because my memory is sealed."
Ye Linglong was suddenly startled.
That makes sense!
She said that the eldest senior brother was a good person before, and didn't look like he had any deep hatred at all. He lived a very relaxed life in Qingxuan Sect every day.
It turns out his memory was sealed!
"In other words, you suddenly went to kill everyone in Danxin Hall because your memory was unlocked and you remembered everything!"
"Yes. The moment the memories that had been sealed for ten years suddenly came flooding back, it was as if it happened yesterday. Everything was so vivid in my mind. Their painful cries for mercy when they died kept echoing in my ears. The way they died tragically reappeared in my mind over and over again. The White Feather Tomb, planted with magical herbs, was covered in blood. My family died in the land they loved so much, bearing the stigma and suffering injustice for ten years."
Pei Luobai laughed bitterly.
"Ten years ago, I didn't have the ability to avenge them. Ten years later, I can do it, so why shouldn't I do it? They deserve to die, they should have died ten years ago! There is not a single innocent person in Danxin Hall! They are all stained with the blood of my relatives, and they also slandered my dead relatives, so that they will not be able to rest in peace in their graves!"
Seeing Pei Luobai's emotions gradually getting out of control, Ye Linglong quickly reached out and covered his eyes.
At the same time, the power of the Great Rebirth Technique was injected into him little by little, helping him to slowly calm down.
"Brother, don't think about it. It's all in the past."
"I can't get over those things! I can't clear their names, but at least I can avenge them! Even if it means death! Anyway, I couldn't find the meaning of living ten years ago. Before I die, I will take them with me and bring them to my father to kowtow and confess their crimes!"
Ye Linglong had never experienced such pain, so she couldn't feel it personally. However, the intensity of Senior Brother's emotions infected her, and even she felt suffocated and filled with despair.
"Brother, don't be like this. They can clear their names. I will accompany you. We can do it. Believe me!"
"Junior sister, this matter has nothing to do with you. You shouldn't get involved."
"How can it not be related? From the first day I entered Qingxuan Sect, you gave me a ring, a bag of spiritual fruits, and ten thousand spiritual stones. Everything about you is related to me. I will never forget your kindness."
Pei Luobai smiled bitterly.
"That's not a favor."
"I said it's up to me. No one took me in at that time. My parents in the mortal world were biased and didn't love me. It was you and the Qingxuan Sect who gave me a place to live."
"I'm just going through the motions."
"But to me, that is precious kindness and unconditional love. Senior Brother, if one day I am surrounded and attacked by others, and I am ready to be killed by everyone, will you ignore me?"
"Of course not."
"So, me too."
At that moment, Pei Luobaixu's eyes, which had not been wet for many years, became warm.
