In a roo each other And no , Mu Yurou or Yun Che, the feeling of family beca told Yun Xiao in a sentimental and appreciative tone the story of the three years he and his wife had spent in the Profound Sky Continent He especially recounted how he had otten to know each other, had hit off, and how they becaed to save their lives by putting together an escape route for them, how he had even swapped his own son with theirs…
Yun Xiao just sat there and silently listened Once Yun Qinghong had finished his tale, he sat there in a daze, but after that he said to himself in a lifeless voice, “Oh… So my homeland… really is the Profound Sky Continent…”
“The Profound Sky Continent is not as sinister as the Illusory Demon Realm has made it out to be Only a portion of the people there are truly sinister and vicious Coest difference that the Illusory Demon World has with the Profound Sky continent is the composition of races The Profound Sky Continent is a world where humans and beasts rule, there are very few demons there” Yun Che said In the Illusory Demon Realm, the Profound Sky Continent was a heavily-demonized place, and he did not wish for Yun Xiao to harbor such needless prejudice and internal conflict towards the Profound Sky Continent because of this
“Right…” Yun Xiao gently nodded his head His expression was still a bit dazed He needed sufficient tis, “Xiao… So ave ht of one day letting you go back to the Profound Sky Continent to recognize your ancestors” Yun Qinghong told hi Brother, my birth parents… Are they still well now? And are they still living in that place called… called Floating Cloud City?” Yun Xiao asked with a hazy expression on his face
Even though Yun Che had known that this question was unavoidable and made sufficient preparation for it, once Yun Xiao asked this question, his expression instantly froze, and he could not est of ti’s expression to change as well After he once again thought of all the tribulations that Yun Che htened even rabbed Yun Che’s shoulder and looked at hiht now? In Floating Cloud City, his Xiao Fa a carefree life now, right?”
Yun Che gave a heavy sigh He did not answer Yun Qinghong’s question Instead, he looked at Yun Xiao and declared in a solemn tone, “Yun Xiao, remember what I had said before A truethat has happened on this earth, whether they be happy or sad But once they have happened, you can only accept and confront them… How you accept and confront your fate will be a test of your character”
Yun Xiao looked at Yun Che and both his hands quietly tightened After a while, his eyes grew detero ahead and say it… No matter what the conclusion, I will face it with calm acceptance”
Yun Che nodded his head, closed his eyes, and said in a gentle voice, “Uncle Xiao, he… he already passed aenty-two years ago”
Yun Qinghong stood up in a hurry, his face had instantly turned as white as a sheet of paper In this world, there were very few things that would be able to provoke such a strong reaction fro was the only sworn brother he had in his life, the only true confidante he had ever had Not only that, Xiao Ying was a ratitude that was as heavy as a o, if not for him, he and his ould not have been able to make it back to the Illusory Deht that he was actually already… dead… That he had actually died… twenty-two years ago…
And at that time… Could it be… Could it be…
“He… He… He, how did he die? How did he die?” Yun Qinghong said in a quavering voice
Yun Che did not hesitate or try to conceal anything, he said straightforwardly, “Twenty-two years ago, after Father and Mother had escaped fro after the both of you somehow found out about your interactions with Uncle Xiao They found Uncle Xiao and they tried to force him to reveal your whereabouts, but Uncle Xiao would rather die than tell the’s entire body shook violently
“After Uncle Xiao died, his wife very quickly passed away due to grief and loss And randmother drowned in such sadness that her iven birth to little aunt, as one year younger than me, she passed away as well I do not even rerandfather alone who raised ’s mouth violently treave a violent heave as a spray of fresh blood violently spurted froround
“Ah… Husband!”
“Father!!”
Mu Yurou and Yun Che cried out in unison They hurriedly went to support Yun Qinghong’s body The corner of Yun Qinghong’s ly eye-catching His gaze lifelessly drifted to the sky and two fierce streams of tears poured from his eyes, “It was I… It was I who caused Brother Xiao to die… It was I who caused the death of his family… It was me… It was ratitude I owe to Brother Xiao is as heavy as a mountain… But what I repaid him with… was only… death, and destruction…”
