“Sure.” Zang Xin nodded. He could tell that there was a wisp of forced reluctance on Yuanen Zhentian’s expression.

A layer of light screen capable shielding all voices enshrouded four of them as Yuanen Zhentian brought the three of them and walked a few steps to the side.

Yuanen Zhentian took a glance at Tang Wulin. “Take a seat while we discuss. His words were obviously meant to emphasize the severely-injured Tang Wulin.”

The four of them sat on the ground. Yuanen Yehui was seated right next to Tang Wulin. She looked at Tang Wulin and then looked at her grandfather before squinting her eyes.

Yuanen Zhentian’s gaze landed on her on the other hand.

“Yuanen, you hate me, don’t you?” Yuanen Zhentian indifferently asked.

Yuanen Yehui abruptly raised her head as her emotions were getting beyond her control. “Why should I not hate you? You caused the death of my mother and crippled my father. Could it be that I’m not even allowed to hate you?”

Tang Wulin could not help but draw in a cold breath after listening to Yuanen Yehui’s words. Even though he had figured out that there was some conflict between the grandfather and granddaughter, he had not expected it to be this bad. Moreover, even a vicious tiger will not eat its cubs! It was truly unimaginable that the Limit Douluo would even harm his own son.

Yuanen Zhentian indifferently said, “Your mother committed suicide but your father was genuinely crippled by me. However, are you aware of the hidden reasons behind these events?”

Yuanen Yehui roared in rage, “Reasons? What about the hidden reasons? Isn’t it because my mother was originally an evil soul master? She was inherently a kind person. She had never done anything bad since she married my father and she had never done anything bad in the past either. She was a good person. Why did you have to force her to her death? Had it not been because of you, would my mother have committed suicide? I’ve become a motherless child when I was young. I’ll never forget how you disregarded father’s begging with a cold face when I was seventeen years old. From that day onwards, you’re no longer my grandfather. You’re an enemy!”

Radiance flashed in Yuanen Zhentian’s eyes as a dash of deep bitterness flashed past them.

“That’s right! I’m the enemy that killed your mother. You must understand that I did so because I didn’t have a choice either. You were still young at the time and you would never accept the departure of your mother no matter what I told you. Your temperament is very similar to your father’s. You’re tough on the outside but soft on the inside. The toughness on the outside is showing signs of bending from being overly rigid.”

“You’ve already grown up now. You’re different from before so there are matters that you can know now. No matter how much you hate, I would still do it again if I had to. Don’t be impulsive if you wish to find out about the truth of the affairs back then.”

Tang Wulin pulled at Yuanen Yehui’s arm. Yuanen Yehui loudly panted for a few breaths. “The truth? The truth is just something concocted by living people like you.”

Yuanen Zhentian remained indifferent. “This old man has never lied even once in his lifetime. It’s beneath me to do so.”

Amorous Douluo made a hand gesture for Yuanen Yehui to calm down before he turned towards Yuanen Zhentian. “Please go on.”

Yuanen Zhentian continued. “I’m going to start from the story of Yuanen Yehui’s father back in those years. I was too hung up on cultivation in my early years so I put everything into it. I had been to almost every corner of the continent in order to search for suitable places for cultivation. I had achieved success when I was twenty-eight years old and stepped into the ranks of Title Douluo. I was a Hyper Douluo at the age of thirty-five and broke through to Limit Douluo when I was forty-seven years old. My entire process of cultivation was considered smooth-sailing in the soul masters’ world.”

His phrases sounded simple but it sounded different in the ears of Amorous Douluo who was also a Limit Douluo himself. Amorous Douluo spent decades to cultivate to Limit Douluo. Only those that had cultivated to their rank would understand the difficulty and painstaking effort behind this process.

A Title Douluo of over twenty years of age could always be described as the proud son of heaven.

Tang Wulin was also a Title Douluo of over twenty years old but how many adventures had he experienced before? Let alone everything else, his Golden Dragon King Bloodline was the most important reason that facilitated him into achieving the extent of his powers now. Moreover, there was also that massive breakthrough he made when he became one with Gu Yuena, and also the elevation achieved after consuming heaven and earth treasures. He had also cultivated for over a decade before he could achieve a breakthrough to his current state.

It was not considered overly powerful for a soul master to become a Title Douluo at twenty-eight years of age yet it was already very terrifying for a person to become a Hyper Douluo at the age of thirty-five. Moreover, the man had successfully cultivated to the Limit Douluo realm just after one decade. There was almost no pause in between and the old man had achieved his rank now without taking any detour.

“After achieving Limit Douluo-rank, I only felt the stress that originated from this world. I began to comprehend laws and pursued the breakthrough of laws. However, I had no choice for a person who would certainly be restricted by societal standards. The stress from my family left me with no choice but to search for a partner. I had a wife when I was fifty years old. The next year, she gave birth to my eldest son Yuanen Tiandang. He’s precisely Yuanen Yehui’s father.”

It seemed like Yuanen Zhentian had almost completely immersed in his recollection of memories at the mention of him.

“It wasn’t until having Tiandang that I discovered in astonishment that family love was a miraculous matter. The concept of ‘family’ began to expand in my heart. Tiandang had intelligence that surpassed his peers ever since he was young. Moreover, he was willing to work hard and he was very obedient. His only flaw was possibly his weakness in his relationship. However, I thought that this could be improved through hard work in the future at the time.”

“Tiandang grew up day by day. Just as we had predicted, he had already cultivated his foundation when he was six years old. His martial soul awakened to show that he had inherited the clan’s Titan Giant Ape. Moreover, he was inherently filled with soul power.”

“After discovering this, I had already made the decision that I would cultivate him to become my successor. This was because I was already a Limit Douluo at the time. After having a progeny, the former clan elder would pass down the position of the clan head to me.”

“I cultivated Tiandang with great effort. Tiandang did not disappoint me either. He cultivated painstakingly and he had elevated at a speed even swifter than mine back then. He had already cultivated to four-ringed when he was twelve years old. He was a Soul Douluo when he was twenty years old. His cultivation speed had even surpassed me. According to my calculation at the time, he could achieve the Title Douluo rank by the age of twenty-five.”

“After possessing Soul Douluo-ranked cultivation base, this signified that he had already possessed adequate ability to protect himself. In order to allow him to comprehend this world better, I made the decision for him to venture out to train himself so that he could comprehend the heaven and earth. Every soul master will find a path that belonged to them. There’s no one else that can completely repeat after another person’s path. I hoped that he could find the path that belonged to himself before he advanced to a Title Douluo. It would be very beneficial for him when he elevated himself to my rank in the future.”

“Tiandang began to venture outside and wandered from place to place. I gave him three years’ time to return to the clan and engaged in closed-door cultivation for a breakthrough. He would advance to Title Douluo before twenty-five years old and I could officially announce to the clan that he would be my successor in the future as long as he could successfully achieve a breakthrough to the Title Douluo realm.”

“After having Tiandang, I had a few other children as well. However, whether it was their natural endowment or temperament, the children that came after Tiandang were all weaker him. Either their natural endowment was inadequate, or they were not as composed as he was. Tiandang was the biggest hope of our Titan Clan at the time. I made a breakthrough slightly earlier but I believed that I could stay until he had achieved his Limit Breakthrough. By then, we will have two Limit Douluos in our clan. Our Titan Clan would be able to face everything by then.”

The Titan Clan! The clan had genuinely existed in reclusion. Even Amorous Douluo Zang Xin had never heard of them, let alone Tang Wulin.

“Yet, you crippled him with your hands in the end. You crippled my father!” Yuanen Yehui could not refrain herself from chiming in.

Yuanen Zhentian closed his eyes and revealed a pained expression on his face. “If I had another choice, do you think that I’d be willing to do that? Between my child’s life and ability, I could only choose one.”

Yuanen Yehui was stunned for a moment because it was her first time listening to this statement.

Yuanen Zhentian heaved a sigh. “I told Tiandang when he was leaving the family that he was allowed to take home the girl that he liked if he were to meet one during his travels. There was no need for him to give up having a family just because of cultivation. There was no need for him to be like me.”

“After one and a half years, he had returned. Moreover, he had truly brought along a girl. I had no choice but to say that he had discerning eyes. The girl had an exquisite appearance, a head full of long red hair and even her cultivation base was rather impressive. Her name was Ye Hui and she was your mother.

Yuanen Yehui immediately quieted down as soon as she heard Zhentian mentioning her mother. On the other hand, Tang Wulin had only learned that her name was derived from her parents simultaneously. She took her father’s surname and her mother’s name.

Yuanen Zhentian continued to speak. “Yuanen was a good-natured girl. Moreover, they loved each other very much. Even though Tiandang had only left for one and a half years, but his cultivation base was already elevated to rank-48 upon his return. He had not reduced his cultivation speed because he had found a girl. I was very satisfied after his return. It was until that very day...”
