“Maybe I was pitied by the heavens and given a chance. An opportunity personally given to me by you. I finally snatched Fumei back. But for so many years, even though I got her body, I never could get her heart. Unable to see her smile, and unable to get her to take the initiative to talk to me as well. Even if she got pregnant, she would be the first to destroy the child herself. She hates me like I hated you back then…”
“Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! ! Haha…hehe…hahahaha…” The creepy roar continued in this cave for a long time, like the desperate cry of a demon.
“Her children I won’t hurt. Don’t dare to hurt. Her son is just like you when you were young. When I see him, it only irritates me further. He has no direction in his life. Her daughter is more obedient than you. Never disobeying my orders and even when asked to marry someone older than you and me for the entire Southern Emperor’s dominance… Maybe, this is also a kind of fate. Although you are already a madman, you still have descendants after all, and you still occupy Fumei’s heart. I don’t know if I should pity you, or continue to hate you and be jealous of you. At the very least I am not willing to kill you anymore. Death would only be a relief to you. Your life being worse than death is really what I want to keep seeing the most. ”
Shui Yuntian’s expression was indifferent and terrifying when he spit out those merciless and cold words, not reacting at all to the evil ghost-like figure in front of him. He had repeated these words time and time again over the years. This person whom he hated and was jealous of, and whom was destroyed by his own hands, facing him now, the depression in his heart was always replaced by a kind of sick pleasure.
“I definitely won’t let you die early. I’ll pray every day that you live one day longer. ”
Shui Yuntian finally turned around, and when he turned around, a stray wind blew out the dim light, making the cave dark again, leaving only that frantic hellish roar. Shui Yuntian stepped forward, leaped out of the dungeon that no one wanted to approach, and returned back calmly.

A few days later. Southern Emperor Zong’s Star Picking Tower,
Shui Yuntian’s body was tall and pale as he meditated silently. His eyes tightly closed without the slightest movement. He maintained this state for a whole day and night.
At this moment, he finally opened his eyes. Outside the attic, there was a slight sound of footsteps getting closer and closer. From their breath, he had already guessed the identity of the other party, making him furrow his brows.
“Father, I’m back. “Shui Mengchan was dressed in pink, her face habitually covered with a veil, as if she was a fairy.
“Is there a problem? “Shui Yuntian asked, slowly sitting down on the wooden chair next to him.
Shui Mengchan shook her head and sat down opposite Shui Yuntian: “I haven’t been back for a long time. Today’s the full moon. I missed mother and father a little, so I couldn’t bear it and came back. ”
Shui Yuntian smiled: “Since you are back, go and accompany your mother. Over the years I have really made you suffer. ”
Shui Mengchan shook her head slightly: “Compared with my uncles, what I have done is nothing but a meager effort. “She paused for a while and asked: “Where is brother?” ”
When she asked about Shui Wuqian, Shui Yuntian frowned and snorted coldly: “Huh, where this rebellious son loves to go how would I know. ”
Shui Wuqian was her brother who was younger than her by two and a half years. Greedy and playful by nature. Although he is the only son of the Sect Master, he doesn’t fit in with other people of the clan, so he’s always absent. However, the relationship between them as brother and sister was pretty good.
Shui Mengchan said in a slow voice, “Father calm your anger, he is still young and at the age of being willful. Forgive him. ”
“Hmmf! “Shui Yuntian shook his head disappointedly, and sighed: “You used to always protect him like this. Now he is a man in his twenties, and he is no longer a child… Not to mention, he has never put a father like me in his eyes so I’ll leave him be. Alas, if he could be half as responsible as you, I would be content as a father. ”
“I’m gonna go see mother. Later, I’ll come back to talk to father about the recent situation of Sky Dragon City. “Shui Mengchan stood up, eyes like water.
“Go ahead and stay with your mother for a while. “. After Shui Mengchan left, he slowly closed his eyes again breatheless.
He was a true martial arts genius, coupled with a hardworking nature that couldn’t be matched by that of ordinary people, his future achievements will definitely be immeasurable.
That night.
Dark and cloudy. The full moon that should have been shining all over the earth was completely obscured by a dark cloud. In the darkness, a graceful figure, wearing a pink dress, silently stepped on the ground under her feet, and walked towards a place in her memory. She didn’t change into any night clothes, but instead put on her most ordinary dress. Otherwise, once she was caught, people wouldn’t be able to tell who she was.
As she got closer, she finally heard a beast-like roar. Tonight, the lunatic didn’t rest, and the terrible sound added a few minutes of a horror-like feeling under the dark night.
Even so, Shui Mengchan wasn’t an ordinary woman, and even in this atmosphere that could make ordinary people scared silly, she was still able to keep her calm, and at the same time raised her alertness to the highest level. Unsurprisingly, there was no one else around here, and she didn’t disturb anyone when she appeared. Because nobody worried that this lunatic would escape.
A person who had his tongue cut off and his body and strength locked by a magic chain that could even firmly seal the woman of Heaven’s Punishment, even if he had great abilities, he had no chance to escape. Every night, people avoided here out of fear. After all, who would want to listen to those horrible ghastly sounds all night.
In the vast dark night, standing in front of the cave that was submerged by withered grass, she hesitated and stood there quietly. In a confused state of mind, the terrible howl and the pungent rotting smell permated through.
She longed for the truth, and was also deeply afraid that everything was true. If everything is true, then her whole life would be upheaved, and even she wouldn’t know where to go.
She hoped that everything was fake, but she still came here without telling anyone. What Ye Wuchen said, she had subconsciously believed. Even though she only interacted with him a few times, she was extremely afraid of him, and because of this fear she derived something similar to trust in him. Such a trust even made her believe his extremely absurd sounding guess.
She knew that Ye Wuchen worked hard to get the information, and to make that guess, it would take a lot of effort and thought. Everything would never be as simple as Ye Wuchen’s few words that day. She wasn’t so naive to think that Ye Wuchen spared no effort just to help her. On the contrary, instead of being kind, she was sure this was a part of his ruthless plan to mess with her Southern Emperor Sect. But… Ye Wuchen’s ruthless trick was based on the most fundamental part of human nature. She knew that, but she still had to voluntarily step into it. Who would want to continue being deceived and living a fake life of deception.
Therefore, compared to the Evil Sect who she hadn’t experienced directly, it was still Ye Wuchen who she feared the most. The former possessed extremely strong power, and she was shocked but not afraid. The latter, however, was a knife that wouldn’t stain itself with blood, but pierced the heart in such a way that people couldn’t avoid it.
“If his guess really is the truth, then what should I do…” Shui Mengchan muttered in her heart. At this moment, she couldn’t help but hesitate. If she stopped here, she could avoid this possibly terrifying reality, complete the rest of her life while hiding this in her heart, and no longer thinking about it.
But she couldn’t do it. The blood in her bones determined that she could not be such a cowardly person.
She was slender and petite, like a demon butterfly dancing in the night, silently falling into the dungeon that she usually would never approach. In the darkness, she was greeted with a nauseating smell, and the madman’s screaming voice was also louder by several times in her ears.
When she made the choice, her heart suddenly calmed down, and there was no more hesitation and uncertainty. She hoped that Ye Wuchen’s suggestion was only his ridiculous rhetoric, but if it were not, she would not escape from the truth. Because after all…
In response to the increasingly loud and grim voice, she walked forward slowly, put her right hand into her arms, and took out a fist-sized bright pearl which released a brilliant light into the dungeon. The surroundings became as bright as day, and Shui Mengchan clearly saw everything in front of her. The ragged and disheveled lunatic, who looked far more terrifying than she had imagined, also appeared in her sight. Having not seen the light for more than 20 years and suddenly being exposed to such a strong light, he suddenly closed his eyes, struggling frantically and wailing in pain. The chain that reflected in gorgeous golden light looked as good as new. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call this lunatic who was suppose to be a human as a wounded evil spirit.
Shui Mengchan looked at the lunatic in front of her in a daze, carefully observing everything about him. The hair covering his head, coupled with him hanging his head low because of his inability to adapt to the light, she couldn’t make out his true appearance. Holding a pearl in her hand, reflecting her own brilliance. The dreamy and beautiful blurred figure largely contrasted the rough environment and atmosphere around her. And the madman in front of her was more like a crazy evil spirit who wanted nothing more than to devour this quiet fairy.
“Who…are you? “Shui Mengchan knew that he wouldn’t be able to answer her, but she still involuntarily asked.
The answer she received was just the unchanging roar of the madman, as his black palms and pointed nails flailed crazily like a devil who wanted nothing more than to tear people apart.
“… You may be my biological father… My biological father who was murdered by my current father. Answer me… Is it really you? Is this all true? If it’s not then who are you? Is everything really as they say, you’re just a friend my father grew up with, who was kept here for more than 20 years because he rebelled… what’s the real truth of everything…”
The madman’s roar continued without any silence or pause. But vaguely, Shui Mengchan felt two gazes looking at her from inside of that messy and long, hair, making her heart tremble uncontrollably as she spoke sentence after sentence.
