"That's right. Not just any demon or monster is fit to be a member of my Helian Clan. We should have killed such evil creatures long ago. I didn't expect that my descendant would almost die in the hands of this guy. It's fate, it's fate. Looks like this little friend's strength is not to be underestimated. This evil creature dying in your hands can be considered to be a worthy death. "
A deep voice sounded in Yue 'er and Jiang Chen's ears. A figure in a snow-white robe appeared. Her long hair was loose and her temperament was unparalleled. Her beautiful face looked similar to Yue' er.
The lady stood with her hands behind her back. Her shadow floated in the air and her eyes were like torches as she looked at Yue 'er.
"Are you … the ancestor?"
Yue 'er asked in a low voice.
Jiang Chen squinted his eyes and looked at the lady in a snow-white robe calmly.
"If you're really the ancestor of the Helian Clan, it's a good thing."
Jiang Chen smiled.
"Haha, not everyone is like that evil creature. Do you think that my Helian Clan is filled with sinister and cunning people?"
The lady was not angry at all. She said with a faint smile and shook her head. Jiang Chen could not bear any hostility towards her because she looked extremely similar to Yue Er. Looking at her from afar, it was as if they were the same person.
"I'm the leader of the Helian Clan, Helian Piaomiao. The Helian Clan has lost a lot of talents. The Gate of Heaven's Will can't change the situation. For us who have been dead for thousands of years, there's nothing we can do."
The woman seemed to be very helpless as she sighed and said.
"Yue 'er greets the ancestor."
Yue 'er cupped her hands and bowed. Her face was filled with respect.
"The person you got rid of earlier was none other than the Seventh Generation Ancestor of the Helian Clan. However, he had committed many evils. Although he was also an ancestor of the Helian Clan, he was as incompatible as fire and water with me. Taking advantage of my slumber, he wanted to kill me. It's useless to kill this kind of evildoer. Even if you didn't do anything, I definitely wouldn't let him have the slightest chance of survival. The one who entered the Gate of Heaven's Will in the previous generation should be your father, right? "
Helian Piaomiao said.
Yue'er's eyes reddened as she asked nervously,
"Ancestor, you mean —"
"Your father has already been killed by him. Speaking of which, it is also because of my incompetence. Otherwise, how could my Helian Family end up in such a state? Back then, your father was a heavenly genius. However, he wanted to seize your father's body and soul. In the end, your father risked his life and didn't let him succeed. However, he himself also disappeared like smoke in thin air. My heart is willing, but my strength is insufficient. The ancestral land of the Helian Family is supposed to be a place that benefits the younger generation, but it has become a place that hides filth. It makes one's heart feel cold and heartache. I, Helian Piaomiao, am duty-bound. "
Helian Piaomiao shook his head and said, full of self-blame.
Yue 'er's body went limp. Her face was filled with despair, and she almost fell to the ground. Jiang Chen hurriedly helped Yue' er up. He sighed in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. He didn't even know what to say.
"Father, I'm sorry … father …"
Yue 'er murmured. However, there was nothing she could do. Her father had passed away, and her heart was as calm as still water.
"As a member of the Helian Family, you should understand your responsibility. The Heavenly Fortune Secret Manual is carved on the Heavenly Fortune Stone. Only by mastering the Heavenly Fortune Secret Manual can you become one of the strongest geniuses of the Helian Family. Only then can the Helian Family continue to exist. However, not everyone could learn the Secret Manual of Heavenly Secrets. Therefore, many people would only learn half of it and would not be able to finish it. That was why they would forget about the past, and that was why they would only remember the future, unwilling to live in the past. The true Heavenly Secrets Codex is a divine ability that can predict the future of the Heavenly Secrets. The Great Heavenly Secrets Art is only a small part of the Heavenly Secrets Codex. Only the Heavenly Secrets Codex is the most terrifying divine technique of the ancient times! "
Helian Piaomiao's eyes flickered as he looked at Yue 'er. It seemed like the burden of the Helian Family's rise was on her shoulders.
"It's fine if you learn it, but won't you forget the past if you only know a little?"
Jiang Chen frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"This is the Helian Family's matter. Little friend, you shouldn't ask so much. However, since you've helped us, I have no choice but to answer your question. What you said is true, but this is something that every member of the Helian Family has to experience, especially since she's the genius of the Helian Family. She carries the hope and mission of the entire Helian Family. The Gate of Heaven's Will has chosen her, and that's her destiny. If she can have her own unwavering belief and master the Heavenly Fortune Secret Manual, she won't forget about the past. "
Helian Piaomiao hesitated for a moment and said,
"However, the final choice is still in your hands. Yue 'er, make your own choice. I won't force you. Although the mission of the Helian Family is important, I respect your decision more."
Helian Piaomiao's words made Jiang Chen very angry. This fellow was setting a trap for Yue 'er. Given Yue' er's character, she would definitely not give up the great cause of the Helian Family for her own selfish desires. If she hadn't entered the Gate of Heaven's Will, perhaps there would still be a chance. However, after knowing everything, it was impossible for her to choose to escape.
Yue 'er wasn't a cowardly person. Moreover, Jiang Chen could see the determination in her eyes.
At this moment, no matter what Jiang Chen said, it would be futile. He had already seen through Yue 'er's choice. As a member of the Helian Family, Jiang Chen didn't have the right to change Yue' er's mind. Helian Piaomiao's original intention was naturally for Yue 'er to bear the glory of the Helian Family. He definitely didn't want her to retreat at the last minute. Yue' er would ultimately bring along her stubborn side and not disappoint everyone. She would choose to bear the difficult mission of the Helian Family.
"I'm sorry, big brother. I want to leave with you. However, I can't abandon my family. This is my mission and my destiny. Believe me, I will definitely not forget myself. Even if I forget myself, I will not forget you."
Yue 'er smiled. Her smile was so bright and heart-wrenching. Jiang Chen couldn't say a single word. He didn't even know how to dissuade her. However, dissuading her was destined to be useless. Yue' er's choice would definitely not change, just like how she had chosen to enter the Gate of Heaven's Will without any hesitation.
From that moment onwards, she had already disregarded her own life and death.
