When Qin Wentian asked this, he was incomparably nervous, staring at Uncle Black, wanting to know the answer no matter what even if the answer was a negative one.
“I have no idea.” Uncle Black sighed. His answer caused Qin Wentian to stiffen. Have no idea?
“However, he did die once. But your father was a true genius, pampered by the heavens. Even that incident didn’t really manage to take his life away. I only know that he restarted his cultivation and lived on but as to his exact whereabouts now, I have no idea. I also don’t know if he is still alive or not.” Uncle Black sighed. Qin Wentian’s heart trembled, he died once but survived somehow and restarted his cultivation?
“I once saw it in a memory fragment. Father died after being surrounded by many inconceivably powerful experts in a clan. The supreme ancients of the clan grouped together and seized away his everything. Uncle Black, by saying that he died once, are you referring to this incident?” Qin Wentian asked.
“Yes, seems like you have seen it.” Uncle Black nodded. “The memory fragments your father left you, might have contained the memories of two lifetimes. During his first life, he was wild and unrestrained, powerful enough to do anything he wanted to. He could spread his hands and give up on everything, or could give it his all and slaughter the heavens. However, at the end, he grew tired of such a life and wanted to leave. But someone refused to allow him to do so and this was the reason why he had a second life.”
“During his second life, your father was more steady, not as wild as before and was more mediocre in comparison. He wasn’t as brilliant as he was in his first lifetime. He hid away in a particle world and grew up there, practicing his cultivation from the start. Later on, he and your mother had you and after that, in order to protect you, they had no choice but to choose departure. It isn’t that they didn’t want to watch you grow up but the safest way for you to survive was to sever all connections they had with you. In that case, no one would know your identity, that you are his son. Despite the pain in his and your mother’s hearts, they still willingly chose to do this to protect you.”
Uncle Black slowly spoke, Qin Wentian’s heart trembled as he heard these words. He naturally would trust Uncle Black. He had once seen how powerful Qin Yuanfeng’s clan was. The palace his father stayed in alone, was even vaster and more majestic than the entire Evergreen Immortal Empire. The experts of that clan were so strong that their strength was inconceivable. Even though his father had a second life, he was clearly still in danger. This was why his parents chose to sever their relationship. If he grew up and was mediocre, he would never know all of this and would be able to live an ordinary life of peace and happiness.
However, Uncle Black was reluctant. Uncle Black hoped that he would be extraordinary, the same as his father Qin Yuanfeng, capable of warring against anything under the heavens. Even if it was against the king of that clan, I can choose not to fight with you but if we fought, I will still be able to defeat you. It was just that his father Qin Yuanfeng was too unrestrained, with nobody able to control him. He wasn’t happy with his clan’s way of doing things and in the end, his clan elected another king, plundering everything that belonged to him and bestowed it to the chosen king.
“Not only for you. Even for us old fellows, we are actually the servants of your father. We decided to change our appearances after being heavily injured, becoming half-crippled, hiding in the shadows. But even so, we still had to be extremely low-profile and could only hide in the remote corners of a particle world and watch as you grew up step by step. And now, since you made it to the immortal realms, we will never appear again because we also have to sever our connection with you. Before you have sufficient strength, you must remember not to let others know that you are the son of Qin Yuanfeng.”
Uncle Black’s words caused Qin Wentian to be speechless. As a son, he had to keep his parentage a secret, living in trepidation? It was all because of his family’s powerful enemies.
“They shouldn’t be in this layer of immortal realms right?” Qin Wentian asked.
“They are not. Your father has long left his hometown, in fact, he even didn’t dare to stay in this layer of the immortal realms. However, there are still some vestiges of your father’s past deeds here and it’s possible someone might know of his existence. As for the people of your father’s clan, they are able to cross worlds easily and they have sent their men here before. Hence, even if our enemies are now not in this layer of the immortal realms, you still cannot let anyone know about this. Now, if our enemies investigate you, they would only know that from the start until now, you are an orphan that was adopted by Qin Chuan of the Qin Residence in the particle world. To the outside world, this is the reason why you are surnamed Qin.”
Uncle Black slowly continued, “It’s just that your bloodline power might be a little suspicious as it’s extremely extraordinary. But as long as the person who sees it isn’t someone of your father’s or mother’s clans, nobody here in the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms would know. But after you leave this layer, it’s best for you to be more secretive when you need to activate the power of your bloodline. Try to minimize the need to use it, especially so after your cultivation grows stronger. After your strength reaches a certain level, if you use your bloodline powers, its unique characteristics would be extremely evident. You have to remember this.”
“Mhm.” Qin Wentian nodded. Upon knowing that his father did have a second lifetime, he felt more relaxed. Although he couldn’t be sure if his father was dead, there was now hope that his father might have survived.
“Which of the 33 heavens are our enemies from? What clan is that?” Qin Wentian asked.
“At the strongest layer of immortal realms, the first heaven. It’s an extremely ancient and powerful clan but the you now have no need to be too clear about this. When you reach that step, even if I didn’t tell you, you would know it yourself.” Uncle Black spoke. Qin Wentian’s heart trembled for a moment. The strongest layer? How strong are they exactly. From his memory fragments, he could see their terrifying and unfathomable strength.
Right now, he was at the immortal king realm and could have a proper gauge of the strength levels he saw in the memories. He could tell that even for immortal emperors, they would disintegrate into dust in an instant if they were involved in a battle of that level.
“Why did that clan want to act against my father? In the battle of the past, my father defeated the king of the clan, why didn’t they allow my father the freedom of choice? I don’t understand.” Qin Wentian was burning with hatred. Although he did not experience the battle back then, but when he personally saw the enemies using a supreme treasure to seize the bloodline power, rune bones, treasured flesh and energy essence of his father, giving it to his opponent instead, an incomparably towering killing intent would gush forth in this heart, surging up a million times.
One day, if he could reach that level. he would definitely make the enemies pay it back. For the things they took from his father, the entire clan had to repay this debt with their blood.
“This is the greatest secret of your father. He is actually of the direct line of descent. His parents are also great characters of the clan but sadly, they died in battle. From young, your father became an orphan and his personality was slightly antisocial and eccentric, a man of few words. The elders of his faction brought him up, treating him as the future of their faction in the clan.”
Uncle Black stared at Qin Wentian as he continued, “Your father didn’t disappoint them. He was sent with other chosen of each respective faction that were of the direct line of descent for training. His talent was extraordinary and other than him, there were two others in the same clan who were just as outstanding. One was a young king of the clan, while the other was a female your father secretly admired then. The three of them were good friends since young but in the end, the two of them got together. Your father was depressed but he still gave them his blessings. After that, he decided to leave the clan to roam the world outside, tempering himself alone. He experienced countless difficulties and almost died on many occasions, as time shaped his character, resulting in him becoming wild and unrestrained. He met the woman that would become your mother on one of his trips and began to pursue her madly.”
“At the same time, that young king of the clan also grew to prominence, like the sun in the sky. There was no one in the same generation who could compare to him and he became one of the possible successors of the clan and was heavily nurtured. He was born a king, dazzling to the extreme. However, he knew that there was one who could compete with him, and that person was none other than your father. However, your father initially didn’t even have the intent to compete for the clan’s authority. He matured in a place far from the clan and only returned very rarely. But when he did return, there were no longer many interactions between him and others of the clan. The young king slowly grew stronger and gradually became the indisputable true successor. It seemed that there would be no further interactions between him and your father.”
“It was only until it was rumored that when your father was adventuring outside, he managed to obtain an ultimate treasure. Countless people in the world wanted it, and your father was hunted by the major powers there ceaselessly. The clan summoned him back but he refused to return, choosing to elope with your mother instead, roaming the world. No one could bind him, not even the clan. He wanted to live the life of a recluse but one day, the young king and his wife actually found his location. They went to pay him a visit, and your father passionately welcomed these old friends of his. Under the pretext of not meeting for a long time, the young king asked for a spar. He was defeated and left, but it was not known what he told the elders of the clan when he returned. Not long after that, even the members of the clan started to join in the hunt for your father.”
“Under a fit of rage, your father decided to sever all connections with him and the clan. His actions only served to further enrage the elders, they had never met such an unbridled clansman before. They sent out even more experts but the end result was that everyone they sent out was heavily injured by your father. In the end, even members of your mother’s clan joined the hunt, they found your parents and forcefully brought your mother away.”
“However, things weren’t concluded yet. The hunt of the clan has never ceased and one day, your father finally decided to return to settle things. The vast majority of his faction within the clan was willing to follow him. They openly claimed for a fair battle between your father and the young king, giving your father a chance to get back everything he lost when he had chosen to leave when he was younger. In that battle, the young king of the clan lost again. However, nobody expected that the other factions were so despicable, actually making the excuse by saying that your father won only because of that ultimate treasure. If he gifted the treasure to the clan, the young king would be ten to even a hundred times stronger than your father.”
“How could your father be willing to give up the treasure? A great battle naturally unfolded, and those who followed your father were either killed or heavily injured. Your father’s anger boiled over and he started a slaughter spree. This act enraged the supreme ancients of the clan, they who held the most authority. They came out and used a supreme treasure to seize everything belonging to your father, bestowing it to the young king instead. Now, so many years have already passed. That young king of the clan must have already grown so strong that it’s unfathomable, there’s no one else who could influence his position or compete with him. He wields unquestionable authority and is worshiped and respected by countless people.”
Uncle Black’s voice was filled with boundless flames of fury. Qin Wentian’s eyes also gleamed with the fire of hatred.
Everything was stolen from his father?
Blood for blood, he would make them pay for everything they’ve done sooner or later.
As for the king of that clan. Right now, his radiance knew no bounds and he was peering down from the heavens like a god?
Qin Wentian’s fists were clenched as his veins throbbed. The law energy from him fluctuated wildly. Although he has personally seen what happened in one of the memory fragments before. But when he truly heard Uncle Black confirming the fact, he felt incomparably wrathful as his hatred towered up into the skies!
