Chapter 214: Bolt from the Blue
Yin Lingchen was speechless. If he could tell her, he wouldn’t be avoiding her like this.
But. Seeing Yin Lingyan like this, he couldn’t hide it anymore.
More than ten years ago, Mother was not with Father Yin. It was just that after getting drunk every time, Father Yin would entertain himself alone, while she was with someone else.
That person… was the father of Ji Mofeng and Ji Xingchen. Their father had an unusual identity; he was the founder of the underworld.
Hearing this, Yin Lingyan’s eyes widened. The underworld’s… founder? She couldn’t have heard that wrong.
So, Ji Xingchen and Ji Mofeng were both her brothers? Half-brothers. They were siblings, and she and Han Wuyu could be together legitimately.
The reason Mother stopped them from being together was that she had a conflict with Father Han more than ten years ago, which made Mother hold a grudge and not want her daughter to marry into that family.
“Actually, Mother loved us very much. She didn’t remarry; she lied to us. Her life was quite difficult, and the real reason she didn’t want to acknowledge you was because our father… was extraordinary.”
After Yin Lingchen said all this, he believed Yin Lingyan had understood. “I understand, Brother. Let me process this for a while.”
So many truths… were making her on the verge of a breakdown…
Han Wuyu received Yin Lingyan’s recording and opened it to listen. He listened word for word, and the truth turned out to be like this.
Next. He knew what he had to do.
At this moment, a figure appeared outside. Han Wuyu went to look and saw it was Old Master Ji. “You are… Xiao Yan’er’s father.”
After hearing the conversation between Yin Lingyan and Yin Lingchen, Han Wuyu also saw through it.
Old Master Ji nodded. “If you want to be with her, destroy the Heart of the King and the Pearl, and withdraw from the underworld.”
Han Wuyu was stunned. He hadn’t expected Old Master Ji to say this, but why?
As if sensing Han Wuyu’s doubt, Old Master Ji shook his head. “Don’t ask why. The Heart of the King should not exist.”
This Heart of the King had come about rather strangely.
“After you destroy the Heart of the King, you will know its secret in three years, and then you can be with Yin Lingyan forever. The method to destroy it is to soak it in water for an hour, then burn it with fire.” Old Master Ji stopped speaking and turned to leave.
Han Wuyu was left alone to ponder. He took out the Pearl and the Heart of the King. Was this Heart of the King, which the underworld fought over fiercely, really going to be destroyed in his hands?
He glanced at the information in his hand, decisively turned, and threw the Pearl and the Heart of the King into the water.
An hour later, the Heart of the King had begun to lose its luster. Finally, he hesitated before lighting a fire and burning the Heart of the King.
A miraculous scene occurred with the Heart of the King. It actually vanished into thin air, and a streak of light flashed across the unseen sky.
“Hello, I want to withdraw from the underworld.” As soon as this was said, posters appeared outside.
The owner of the Heart of the King has withdrawn from the underworld. The whereabouts of the Heart of the King are unknown.
What is the true identity of the owner of the Heart of the King?
Why did they withdraw from the underworld?
Questions like these were posted everywhere. Many people saw them and widened their eyes in shock. Of course, Old Master Ji would not miss such explosive news.
“It seems he has made his choice. In that case, I have no reason to stop you anymore.” Old Master Ji smiled happily, put down the newspaper, placed his hands on his legs, closed his eyes, and sat in the sunlight, enjoying himself to his heart’s content.
