Tang Dahai did not like others kneeling to him, nor was he willing to kneel to others. Moreover, how could he, who was simple in his bones, accept such a big gift.
Lan Yu was forced to stand up and support Tang Dahai: "Old man, lie down first. Don't tire yourself out."
Tang Dahai let out a long breath, the corner of his mouth squeezed out a smile and said: "You mother and son have reunited. Have a good chat first."
"I have nothing to talk about with her." Tang Zheng said with a straight face.
"Who said there is nothing to talk about. We must talk! "Tang Dahai said firmly. Tang Zheng was helpless as he did not want to go against his grandfather's orders.
Lan Yu said with a smile: "Old man, since the child is not willing, I will not force him."
"How am I forcing him? This child is usually very obedient, but at critical times he likes to be stubborn with a bull's temper. This is all because I did not teach him well." Tang Dahai said with a calm face.
"Old man, you are modest. It is because you taught him well that he has today's achievements." Lan Yu said from the bottom of her heart.
Although Tang Dahai did not have much culture and was a rough person, and the conditions were so difficult, teaching a child like Tang Zheng was indeed a feat that many wealthy families could not achieve.
The corner of Tang Dahai's mouth revealed a trace of a relieved smile as he kindly looked at Tang Zheng. "With your words, then my twenty years of hard work have not been in vain."
Seeing his grandfather's attitude, Tang Zheng knew that he could not avoid it this time. He said to Lan Yu in a bad mood: "Come out and talk."
Lan Yu was flattered and hurriedly nodded: "Okay, let's go out and talk."
Tang Dahai did not forget to remind him: "Little Zheng, speak properly. Don't put on a bitter face, understand?"
Tang Zheng reluctantly squeezed out a smile at his grandfather and walked out of the ward with Lan Yu. When they arrived at the stairwell, he looked at her with an unkind expression and said: "I don't know what you are planning. You actually went to find my grandfather and angered him to the point of being hospitalized. Do you think I will forgive you?"
Lan Yu's face was full of shame. She took a deep breath and said, "Child, I don't dare to ask for your forgiveness. Before I went to find the old man, I didn't think that things would turn out like this. This is my fault. I apologize to you."
Looking at her sincere expression, Tang Zheng could not help but think of the Martial Order Sect Master. These two people seemed to be very different. The Martial Order Sect Master always had a straight face and did not smile, giving Tang Zheng the impression that he was cold and heartless. However, Lan Yu really had too much of a motherly radiance.
He had made things difficult for her time and time again, and even attacked her, but she did not complain at all. Instead, she took the initiative to admit her mistakes and ask for forgiveness.
Everyone's heart was made of flesh. Tang Zheng's tone also softened a little. "Then what exactly do you want?"
"I just want to see you. I want to hear how you've been through all these years. I want to have another me in your life from now on." Lan Yu said expectantly.
Tang Zheng frowned and asked, "You're so sure that I'm your son?"
"Of course. Perhaps before I saw you, I would have doubted it. However, after seeing you, this feeling of connection between mother and son will not lie to me."
"Heng, how come I don't feel it." Tang Zheng said without any trace of politeness.
"You will feel it in the future." Lan Yu said without any objection.
"Then why did you abandon me in the past?" This was the question that Tang Zheng was most confused about. When he was young, he had asked the sky many times, but no one answered him.
Even though he was now an adult, he still wanted to know the answer to this question.
"It's a long story. In short, as a mother, I did not protect my own child. This is my fault." Lan Yu did not try to defend herself. Instead, she took the blame.
"I don't need such a general answer. I want a detailed answer." Tang Zheng was not satisfied.
"Don't worry, I will tell you the whole story. This is related to the Martial Order's complicated matters. It is not something that can be explained in a few words. Moreover, this is related to the safety of your life in the future."
"In the future? Could it be that I'm still in danger? "Tang Zheng was flabbergasted.
Lan Yu nodded, "Yes. Back then, someone wanted to harm you. Although the main culprit is no longer in this world, he still has some remnants. If he knows that you are still in this world, I'm afraid that he will not let this matter rest and will harm you."
Tang Zheng laughed coldly and said, "Back then, I was just a baby in swaddling clothes. You could decide my life and death at will. However, I am no longer a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. If you want to kill me, it won't be that easy."
To be honest, although he did not remember what happened back then, the other party had actually made a move on a baby who did not know anything. This enmity was too great. Tang Zheng would not turn a blind eye to it.
Even if the other party did not come looking for him, he would not let them go.
Seeing him make such a solemn vow, Lan Yu's face revealed a gratified expression. She praised, "You've really grown up. Don't worry. Back then, I was weak after giving birth, which gave the bad people a chance to take advantage of me. Now, if anyone wants to harm you, they will have to step over my dead body first. "
Tang Zheng's eyebrows jumped. Her tone and expression were definitely not right. If anyone really wanted to deal with Tang Zheng, she would not hesitate to give up her life to protect him.
Tang Zheng was somewhat moved. He was a person who knew how to be grateful. How could he not be moved when a person was so good to him?
However, when he thought of the fact that he was abandoned back then, Tang Zheng's heart became stone again. He still had a straight face and asked, "Then who wanted to harm me back then? Who wants to harm me now?"
Lan Yu hesitated for a moment and said, "Martial Organization's Sect Master."
"Martial Organization's Sect Master? Didn't Martial say that I was his son? "
"No, it's not the current Sect Master, but the previous Sect Master. When I gave birth to you, he said that you were not suited to practice martial arts. Instead, you had the Nine Yang Saint Body that only appears once in a thousand years. This is a very suitable physique for cultivators. The Martial Organization's mission is to kill all the cultivators in the world. He immediately decided to kill you to prevent you from becoming a powerful cultivator that can threaten martial artists in the future."
Tang Zheng's heart was in turmoil. The previous Martial Organization's Sect Master really had a pair of fiery eyes. He actually recognized his physique. Moreover, he knew too much. He knew that this kind of rare physique would not be small and would threaten the existence of the Martial Organization.
"The previous Sect Master decided to sacrifice your little life in order to prevent the Martial Organization from being ridiculed by the world. All of this was done behind my back. By the time I found out, it was already too late. I thought that you had already fallen under his evil hands." Lan Yu said in agony.
"Why didn't I die? Why did I come to this Ordinary Balance?"
Lan Yu shook her head, "I don't know either. I'm afraid that only one person knows the answer."
"Who?"
"Your birth father, my husband, the current Martial Organization's Sect Master."
"Him!" Tang Zheng could not help but recall that stern face. From his eyes, he could see the kindness of a father. On the contrary, it was the decisiveness of a superior.
"Why is he the only one who knows?"
"Because of the jade pendant on your body. That jade pendant is the keepsake of the successor of the Martial Organization's Sect Master. Back then, your father was the successor of the Martial Organization's Sect Master. This jade pendant was always with him. Later on, it appeared on your body. Therefore, only he knows what happened back then."
Lan Yu also wanted to know the answer. She could not wait to fly back and ask her husband clearly.
"Then where did the previous Sect Master go?" Towards this enemy, Tang Zheng could not ignore it.
"He's already dead."
"Hmph, he got lucky. Since he's dead, why do you say that I'm still in danger? "
"Although he's dead, his influence still exists. Although the Martial Sect has a new Sect Master, many old people are still thinking about the old Sect Master. If they knew that you weren't dead, these old people would definitely not let this matter rest."
Tang Zheng frowned and said: "That's not right. Since that's the case, then why is this Sect Master still thinking about it and asking Wu to do everything he can to get me to go to the Martial Sect? Isn't this throwing himself into a trap?"
"This …" I know that too. "Lan Yu shook her head.
Tang Zheng rolled his eyes, and with a flash of inspiration, he said: "Could it be that he wants to kill me like the previous Sect Master?"
But in the next moment, he rejected this thought. If the other party really wanted to make a move on him, then he wouldn't have sacrificed his martial arts to save his life in the Ten Thousand Huge Mountains.
"No, he's your father after all. How could he do anything to you?" As expected, Lan Yu immediately retorted.
Tang Zheng was unable to calm down after all. He asked snappily: "Back then, your body was weak and you couldn't protect me. Could it be that his body is also weak?"
"No, you don't know how powerful the old Sect Master is. No one is his match. In the Martial Sect, his words carry weight. Even the successor doesn't dare to go against him."
"Hmph, could it be that if the other party wanted to kill his son, he would turn a blind eye to it?" Tang Zheng asked disdainfully.
Lan Yu was speechless.
Although Tang Zheng was furious, his interest was also piqued. Back then, this matter was undoubtedly a secret of the Martial Sect, and no one else would know about it. Since he was involved, then he had to get to the bottom of it.
"No matter what happened back then, in short, this was too cruel to an infant child. Today, you guys are spouting nonsense, so don't think that I can easily forgive you guys. Furthermore, my surname is Tang now, not any other surname. "Tang Zheng said resolutely.
"Right, what is the current Martial Sect Master called?"
"He was an orphan adopted by the old Sect Master. He followed the old Sect Master's surname Wu and was named Jun Shan. However, very few people know this name." Lan Yu said.
"Wu Jun Shan." Tang Zheng muttered and said happily: "Fortunately, I didn't stay in the Martial Sect. Otherwise, using this surname would be a lifetime of shame."
Seeing him so resolute, Lan Yu didn't correct him. Perhaps, in her heart, she also had a natural resistance to this surname.
"Child, it's impossible for your identity to be hidden from too many people. As long as they know about this matter, they definitely won't let it go. So, from now on, you have to stay by my side so that I can protect you," Lan Yu warned.
"I don't need your protection." Tang Zheng flatly refused.
Lan Yu stubbornly said: "I know you are angry at me, and I also know that you are very powerful. However, the enemy cannot be underestimated. When they join forces, the explosive power will put you in danger. I have the responsibility and the obligation to protect you. Just treat this as making up for my mistake back then."
Tang Zheng didn't appreciate her kindness and coldly said: "There is no need. Counter soldiers with arms, water with an earth weir. I have been like this for so many years, and I will be like this in the future."
