Lin Yan even saw that when his parents first met, it was his mother who saved his father who was being chased. He never imagined that his powerful father would look so disheveled.
Everything was unexpected.
It turns out that my mother and father met when they were young and fell in love. They traveled together, facing many hardships and often encountering people sent by the former Demon Lord to kill my father. However, my mother was intelligent and my father was quick-witted, and both of them had excellent talent in the art of chain cultivation, so they escaped death several times...
Lin Yan witnessed firsthand how they relied on each other and worked hard step by step to survive in this cannibalistic world.
Their lives were very hard. Their father was a demonic cultivator, but the demonic realm could not tolerate him, and the righteous path was the same. Their mother was a furnace vessel, coveted by others, and was almost forced into sexual intercourse. If their father had not arrived in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
It wasn't until they successfully connected with the current Demon Lord and devised a series of plans that the Demon Realm changed hands.
The father and mother were finally able to find a place to stay.
They could finally stay in the Demon Realm in peace, no longer having to wander and be hunted down.
The father has become a meritorious figure in helping the current Demon Lord, no longer the lowly person he once was. The current Demon Lord has promised the father power, status, and elixirs and treasures.
That day, my mother's smile was especially radiant...
After laughing, she looked at her father with reluctance in her eyes, while her father remained silent, his eyes filled with a deep mystery that Lin Yan could not understand.
Lin Yan didn't understand.
Such a loving young couple, how could they end up with such a tragic fate?
In the past, the people in the Heavenly Demon Palace only said that the father had upset the mother, which made it impossible for her to get over that hurdle, and they even extended that hatred to the child...
Lin Yan thought that no matter what mistakes her father had made, time had passed and so much time had gone by, so why was her mother so persistent?
But when the bloody truth was laid out before him, and that familiar face of the Demon Lord came closer and closer, the disgusting sensation made Lin Yan want to kill this shameless scoundrel immediately!
He heard the man's flippant voice, with the mocking tone of a superior: "I was merely curious about a pure Yin body, why must you make things so awkward for me, Madam?"
Immediately following was a warning from his male friend, delivered through gritted teeth.
But it had no effect. Finally, in her mother's tear-filled eyes, Lin Yan saw the faint green cloth peeking out from the window. In that instant, Lin Yan felt her mother's body stiffen.
Because it was the grand ceremony for the new Demon Lord, my mother specially prepared light-colored clothes.
She said that you can't dress too flashy on days like this, otherwise you'll overshadow your boss and be punished later.
Separated by a window, Lin Yan could not see the figure behind it, but he could deeply sense the silence of the person behind the window. The other person seemed to be staring at everything, and the unfathomable light was like a net that could not be opened, trapping people.
So that's how it is—
Lin Yan understood.
So, it was a sacrifice to curry favor, a compromise for future advancement, a pledge of allegiance...
Later, Lin Yan witnessed her father's shamelessness.
Even though the mother was unwilling, the father still forced her.
Perhaps he had seen similar scenes before, but at that time, he only felt that his mother's refusal was just asking for trouble.
Imprisoned and coerced into having a child, Lin Yan watched helplessly as the vibrant young girl was ruined into a resentful woman filled with despair. She did not want to give birth to the child in her womb, but everything was out of her control.
Lin Zeyu believed that the child could salvage their relationship.
Little did he know, some scars can never heal, and some mistakes can never be forgiven; he was simply pushing her further and further away...
She went mad and attracted lightning, attempting to strangle the flesh that had fallen from her own body. Everyone said she was sick, but who drove her to this state?
Lin Yan saw her walking alone in that cage-like courtyard on countless dark nights, circling that small area endlessly, like a soul unable to find its way out. The clamor of the world was irrelevant to her; she was determined to find her place of belonging.
The cold night wind howled past, but she seemed oblivious.
Finally, she stopped by the bridge over the pool and looked at the woman, whose face was ravaged, reflected in the water.
'Tick-tock'.
Ripples spread across the pool.
