Due to various reasons, my condition has been deteriorating recently. Nanhuangzong's problem was supposed to be solved in three chapters, but because I couldn't find a direction, it took me a long time … I'll update one more chapter, so that I can finish it as soon as possible.
"That year, when I returned home, I overheard a conversation between my father and my uncle. At that time, my uncle mentioned my name and called me 'his child' in a strange tone. Since then, I had some doubts buried deep in my heart, but I wanted to believe that I heard it wrong, or that I misunderstood my uncle's meaning. So, I buried these doubts deep in my heart. I didn't dare to ask anyone. Until one day, a person whom I respected from the bottom of my heart dug up these doubts, and I couldn't help but remember everything. I can't run away anymore. If I don't know the truth, I won't be able to live in peace for the rest of my life. "
"Men with the direct bloodline of the Southern Emperor have a deep loyalty to their ancestors. No matter how many generations pass, it won't change. That's what that person told me. As for my father, he gave up searching for the Sword Of Emperor Nan a long time ago. If it wasn't for the news about the Sword Of Emperor Nan that suddenly appeared three years ago, he wouldn't even believe in the existence of the Sword Of Emperor Nan. His ambition was to rule the world. My brother, Wu Que, insisted on traveling the world to find the Sword Of Emperor Nan. He didn't want to follow his father's wishes no matter what. Because of this, father and son became estranged and rarely returned home. He said that it was because my brother had the direct bloodline of the Southern Emperor, but my father didn't … Is this all true? "
The madman's hysterical screams continued without any signs of stopping.
"You … Are you really crazy? He also hinted to me that you're not crazy. You endured the humiliation just to see the light of day again, to lead Nanhuangzong to the path you want … Tell me, are you crazy? If you're really a madman, then all his speculations aren't empty words, and I can let it go and not think about it anymore. If you're not crazy … then tell me that you're really not crazy. "
Shui Mengchan looked at the lunatic in front of her, searching for his eyes that were covered from time to time. Her heart beat faster and faster. His entire body was extremely dirty, but his eyes, which flickered from time to time, were so clear and bright, without any signs of filth. She didn't know if anyone else had ever met his gaze, but at the very least, she had met countless people over the years and had a thorough understanding of human nature. This kind of gaze with hidden emotions shouldn't belong to a madman … She had already gotten half of the answer to her question.
She needed a precise answer.
She stretched her hand towards her neck and slowly took off a piece of Ice Blue Aqua Jade that was tied with thin ice blue threads and was in the shape of a water droplet. She had been wearing this piece of water jade since she could remember. When she could remember, she knew that this was formed by her father and mother using the Water Jade Technique when she was just born. The water jade aura in it not only allowed her to have perfect skin as she grew up, it could also help her practice the Water Jade Technique. After twenty-five years, the water jade aura still hadn't dissipated, and a dreamy blue light could be seen in the darkness. On her third birthday, her mother, Shui Fu Er, told her to never throw away this piece of water jade, and she had always worn it. Today, she started to understand why her mother never smiled, and why her mother told her to never throw away this piece of water jade.
This was because this piece of water jade was formed by the combined efforts of her birth parents and was worn around her neck. It was a symbol of her identity that only her family knew.
The rich light element didn't cover the dreamy blue light, instead, it gave the strange blue light an extension carrier. Within the light, there was a faint and comfortable blue color.
The madman's roar suddenly disappeared completely, and his crazy movements also stopped at this moment. The sudden silence made Shui Mengchan's heartbeat seem to have stopped. Time, froze in an instant.
This moment of silence allowed Shui Mengchan to get the answer that she longed for, and was extremely afraid of.
"Chan … er …"
The pair of eyes that appeared and disappeared behind his head began to shake. Gradually, they became misty, as if they were separated by a layer of water vapor that was getting heavier and heavier. In the deathly silence, an incomparably dry voice came out from the madman's mouth. Although it was hoarse and hard to recognize, but Shui Mengchan was still sure that the two words that stirred her heart was' Chan 'er' …
Shui Mengchan was stunned, although she was already prepared, but when she really faced this terrifying and cruel reality, this incomparably strong woman was still stunned for a short while. Then, she took a deep breath, and said with a trembling voice, "You … you can speak?"
Madman … he could no longer be called a madman. Perhaps because he hadn't spoken for a long time, not only was his voice dry, it was also quite distorted. He didn't answer Shui Mengchan, but said slowly, "When you were two years old … I asked you what you wanted for your birthday … you said, you wanted snow from the sky …"
Shui Mengchan felt like she was struck by lightning, her body shook violently.
"… When I said I couldn't do it, you were so disappointed that you cried … At that time, I told you, when you grow up, I will personally go to the far north, to find the Snow Lady who can make snow from the sky … but, this promise, a father's promise to his daughter, was not fulfilled for a whole 23 years …"
That sorrowful voice was mixed with a man's mournful cry, containing the blood and tears in his heart. At this moment, he didn't look like a madman at all.
His every word was like a heavy iron hammer fiercely smashing into the depths of Shui Mengchan's heart. In an instant, her tears soaked the veil, sorrow, bitterness, shock, confusion … all kinds of complicated emotions surged up, intertwining chaotically in her heart. When she was two years old, the birthday gift that she and her father wanted was a secret that only the father and daughter knew.
It was also after she was two years old, she never saw her mother smile again. Her father was still kind, but she clearly felt estranged from him. She could no longer enjoy the fatherly love that warmed her body and mind, that allowed her to act coquettishly to her heart's content.
The crystal ball that released the light element and the water droplet-shaped warm jade slipped from her hand at the same time. The crystal ball fell onto the moist ground, while the warm jade was still hanging in her hand because of the silver string, swaying in the air with a faint blue light. Shui Mengchan's lips trembled, and a voice that sounded like a cuckoo crying blood came out, "Father … it's, it's really you …"
'Why … why is it like this …'
This madman … turned out to be her father … Then, who was the person she called father outside? What was hidden in this!
"Chan 'er, it's been 23 years … You've grown up so much … Being able to see you again, even if I die soon, I can finally have less regrets." The madman's tears flowed down. This man who had suffered for too long, who had been suppressed for too long, who had not collapsed under 23 years of inhuman torture, finally shed tears. His uncontrollable tears drew clear traces on his face …
23 years, how many 23 years could there be in a person's life? 23 years ago, he was at the best age of a person's life. He had a lovely daughter and a wife who he doted on and loved him.
He. He was also the only candidate for the lord of Nanhuangzong.
However, since the huge change 23 years ago, everything changed. It was like a nightmare, which turned his whole life upside down and brought him into another nightmare, a nightmare that lasted for 23 years.
23 years, this kind of torture could easily turn a normal person into a complete madman. Everyone thought that he had gone crazy. However, he was not crazy.
"Live …" His father, who had also been plotted against, told him these three words in a weak voice before he died. He could not die, because if he died, the direct bloodline of the Southern Emperor would be completely cut off. Thus, he relied on his deep-rooted loyalty and unbelievable obsession, his longing for his wife and son who were still alive, and the oath and monstrous hatred that he had been repeating in his heart for a full 23 years, and he survived. As long as he did not die, there was still hope. He waited for an opportunity, and he also believed that the Heavens would not allow the bloodline of the Southern Emperor to be cut off.
Later on, he learned from Shui Yuntian's resentful recount that his wife, who was pregnant at the time, had given birth to a son for him. He cried loudly in a crazed roar … From that moment on, he understood the meaning of his life even more. He would rather endure all the pain and humiliation in order to continue living. Because he had to tell the truth to his son. Only those who had the pure blood of the Southern Emperor would know the truth. What they had was unwavering loyalty to their ancestors. Even if the world changed, it would not change. His son would definitely not change his belief because of his' father '.
All these years, he pretended to be crazy so that he could survive, and also so that the people he hated would let down their guard, so that he could wait for that slim chance. He succeeded. After 23 years, when his madness had become a habit, some people who were wary of his survival had also let down their guard as time passed, and even stopped thinking about his existence. Other than Shui Yuntian, no one else was willing to go near where he was. They did not want to see the once high-spirited person become miserable and miserable again. Just the environment he was in was enough to make them avoid him endlessly.
For 23 years, the pain he had suffered was unimaginable … The Heavens pitied him, and today, he finally saw the light of hope in the darkness — he saw his daughter whom he had been separated from for 23 years. His heart that was struggling in pain seemed to have been awakened, and the tears that he had suppressed for too long flowed down like rain. When Shui Mengchan first arrived, his heart was moved by his words, but after enduring for too long, how could he not be cautious, how could he let his 23 years of patience go to waste? When Shui Mengchan took out the water jade that he had personally put on her after she was born, he finally confirmed that it was not a test … he saw his daughter. That moment of palpitation made him want to cry, but in order not to alarm others, he forcefully suppressed his almost uncontrollable excitement, but he could not stop the tears from flowing down. In front of his daughter, this father's strong will was easily defeated.
"Why … this is not true … why is it like this … tell me, why is all of this …" She could not see his face clearly, and could not recognize his voice, but his reaction when facing the water jade, and the words he said, made her no longer have any doubts.
He was her father …
