Chapter 228: Grudges of the Past
"But I know that this child was only born from my belly. She does not belong to me. She is just a body, a gift prepared to please the gods."
"After I gave birth to the child, Zhong Zhenhai asked me to secretly add some medicine to my husband's tea to increase his cultivation. Then I learned that my husband had entered the God's Falling Battlefield and knew the situation inside the battlefield. He also tried to repair the formation and eliminate the evil spirit inside. This affected the interests of some people, so someone found Zhong Zhenhai and promised him the position of the head of the family, asking him to get rid of my husband."
"When my daughter was five years old, she was given to the Supreme God Chengsi. He was very satisfied with my daughter's body with great luck, but he could not merge with her body no matter what, so he had to give up. However, my daughter's luck was so coveted that the Supreme God took away half of her spiritual roots and refined them into evil magic, so that we can control her and take her luck away and put it on Zhong Yuxue to cultivate his spare body."
"After that, my husband ascended to heaven, but most of his cultivation came from the improvement of medicine, so he failed as expected. But at this time, I had to plan for myself. I had been the wife of the head of the family for more than ten years, and I didn't want to give up this position. So I took advantage of the most difficult time for Zhong Zhenhai to take over the Zhong family and proposed to remarry him on the condition of helping him become the head of the family. Then I got what I wanted."
"The person I feel most sorry for is my daughter, but there is nothing I can do. Her birth was a conspiracy, and she must live in the conspiracy. The power of the gods is too strong for her to resist, so I can only be cruel and treat her as dead. What is still alive is just a shell, and then I will take everything from her and give it to Zhong Yuxue. In this way, I can live, and live well."
"But she is not a peaceful body. She is disobedient. Zhong Yuxue always asks us to control her, but she is blessed with great luck and we can no longer control her. In fact, they are just bodies, so why bother about it so much?"
From an outsider's perspective, it was Li Sirou who kept circling around a stone table. After a few circles, she looked absent-minded, as if she was exhausted to death. Zhong Ling'er just asked a question, and she confessed everything. The content of her words was even more shocking.
"It turns out that Junior Sister is the child of Master Zhong, who spent hundreds of years of merit to condense a drop of blood. No wonder she has such good fortune."
"God, Shell, it turns out that such incredible things are happening in secret. This is the first time I have heard of such a thing."
"It turns out that Junior Sister's spiritual roots were damaged by the Supreme Gods. What are these Supreme Gods trying to do hiding in the dark? Are they going to harm us?"
"Master Zhong was murdered. If she hadn't said anything, who would have known that there were so many twists and turns? It's amazing that they could have come up with such a murder method."
"Li Sirou mentioned the Godfall Battlefield just now. Master Zhong wanted to repair the formation but blocked the interests of certain people. Who are these certain people? Do you want to discuss it?"
The opinions of outsiders had no influence on Zhong Ling'er. She squatted on the table with her chin in her hand and asked in a low voice, "How many gods are there in the world of cultivation like Cheng Ming and Cheng Si? Do you know who is the leader?"
Li Sirou was stunned for a while before answering: "There are nearly a hundred people in Dengtian Pavilion, Pavilion Master...ah..."
Li Sirou held her head and rolled over. She tried hard to say the name, but for some reason she got a splitting headache when she thought of it.
Zhong Linger understood that he was under a ban, and hurriedly comforted him, "Forget it, don't think about him, he is not important. Think about Chengsi, why does he want to deal with Taiqiong Sect?"
Li Sirou paused for a moment before saying, "It's not just the Taiqiong Sect. The Taiqiong Sect is just the beginning. In fact, the Lingjian Sect was the first one. They were the ones who caused the ghost attack ten years ago, but my husband saved them. As long as there is an innate divine object to protect the sect, they are their targets."
"Innate divine objects, so their goal is to get the innate divine objects. What is their purpose in snatching the divine objects?"
"Open...ah..."
Li Sirou rolled over in pain again, and then fainted.
Qi Haoran moved the rope and pulled Zhong Ling'er up. "She is too weak to bear such a small pain. Let's go ask Zhong Zhenhai."
Zhong Linger sighed, "It is precisely because she is weak that it is easiest for her to break through. Zhong Zhenhai may not answer whatever she asks."
Zhong Ling'er didn't have much hope of asking Zhong Zhenhai. She found that as soon as she asked the core questions, the ban would be triggered. This would probably happen to everyone except the Fallen Angel. So if she really wanted to ask, she had to catch a Fallen Angel.
Li Sirou was unable to wake up for a while, so the few people could only find Zhong Zhenhai, who was swinging his sword wildly at a wall. A large section of the wall on the other side collapsed, but Zhong Zhenhai seemed to be fighting with the wall, and he was attacking along the wall while constantly cursing.
"I am the patriarch of the Zhong family. I was the one who got back the formation secret book. Without me, you are nothing, Master Zhong."
"I am the eldest, and the Zhong family should be centered around me. I also raised you, but you make me depend on you. Why?"
"I won't let you have an easy life. You won't die well, and neither will your daughter. She is only fit to be a stepping stone for my daughter."
"Kill you! Everything you have is mine. Your wife is mine, your property is mine, and everything you have worked so hard for is mine!"
Zhong Zhenhai's vision saw a blazing flame, but the fire was glowing blue and not hot at all, but rather a bit chilly. So, it was a ghost fire, and his second brother standing in the ghost fire was naturally also a ghost.
But what can the ghost do? He can kill him once, he can kill him a second time, and he can kill him countless times, so he has to keep killing until he is completely dissipated.
Suddenly, the second brother in front of him spoke, "If I die, can you support the Zhong family? Will the people behind you be willing to help you?"
"This is all your good daughter's fault. What she made is so strange that even the gods can't figure it out. Otherwise, the gods would definitely help me, and the Zhong family wouldn't have become like this. This is all your fault. Did you teach her? You made all of this, right?"
"Is there anyone among the Supreme Gods who understands formations? I can't even understand Ling'er's little tricks. Are you afraid that this Supreme God is fake?"
"You are talking nonsense. How can it be false? The ancestor of the Lin family was able to create a ten-thousand-year-old family. He is much stronger than you...ah...no, you are trying to trick me. You are not the second brother. Who are you?"
Zhong Zhenhai stopped moving and his eyes gradually became clear.
Zhong Linger smiled and waved, "Hey, uncle, are you okay? You just expressed all your resentment towards my father. How do you feel? Are you refreshed and in a good mood?"
