Chapter 152 Shu Yan’s life experience, past and parents (4k)
About one kilometer away from the Star King Hotel, Shu Yan and Su Tong appeared on the rooftop terrace of another hotel.
This hotel is the property of Xu Jiujiu. As a royal princess, Xu Jiujiu has many properties under his name, and he is involved in many fields, and almost every one of them is in a very lively and prosperous area of Xingluo City. , the annual income it can bring They are all extremely terrifying figures. It is simply unimaginable for ordinary people. Xu Jiujiu gave nearly 30% of the dividends from all industries to Shu Yan. Coupled with her occasional gold coins and her earnings over the years, Shu Yan’s current net worth is There are already tens of millions of gold soul coins.
Although these properties are hugely profitable, she has never cared much about them. She has some specialized personnel to take care of these properties for her. She only needs to wait in Shu Yan's arms to collect the gold soul coins.
There are several seats placed on the terrace. This place has never been open to the public. Only Xu Jiujiu and Shu Yan sometimes come to sit. The view here is excellent, and you can overlook the streets with constant flow of people. Coupled with the fact that this hotel is much higher than the surrounding buildings, you can almost overlook the entire Xingluo City from here.
"Sit down, this is my territory, no outsiders can come in."
Shu Yan pulled out a chair and sat down directly.
Su Tong was not polite, and sat directly opposite Shu Yan, but his eyes were always on Shu Yan, as if he was a little complicated, but also seemed to be rejoicing.
Shu Yan sighed imperceptibly. To be honest, he didn't know how to face Su Tong.
In the past, even if he was dealing with life-related matters, he had never been so at a loss, but now, he was indeed a little confused. In two lifetimes, this was the first time he had come into contact with his blood relatives, and he was in a state of turmoil. He was also surprisingly calm, but his thoughts couldn't be concentrated.
"Tell me what you know. I'll be honest with you. I don't know what to say, and I don't know how to face you or the family behind you."
After thinking about it, Shu Yan said directly.
Su Tong lowered his eyes and then said:
"That is not only my family, but also your family. For so many years, my parents have been trying their best to find you and never gave up."
Parents?
Shu Yan's hand tapping on the table paused for a moment, but then quickly returned to its original position.
Su Tong took a deep breath, and Shu Yan could feel that her body was trembling undetectably. This was a sign that her emotions were so complicated that she couldn't control them. She tried her best to maintain calm, but in Shu Yan's eyes, there was still a loophole. All kinds of things.
"Let's talk about these things later. Tell us about your family and things related to me. I just want to know this now."
Shu Yan said softly.
Su Tong's eyes flashed with sadness, but soon she cheered up and said:
"The origins of our lineage are too long and long, and can be traced back to a period that ordinary people can't even imagine."
"Maybe you can't imagine that there can be such a bloodline that has survived countless years of time and has been passed down since the days when humans were still very weak."
"But what I can tell you clearly is that our ancestors are related to the legendary gods. You can understand it this way. We have the blood of gods flowing in our bodies and are the descendants of ancient gods. This blood has been passed down from generation to generation, and one of them remains to this day. A secret that has not been cracked by us. This secret protects us, guides us to avoid disasters time and time again, and passes on the bloodline.”
Su Tong's voice was soft, but then it became a little heavier.
"Four thousand years ago, when the two continents collided, our secluded place in Tianhun was discovered by the army and strong men of the Sun and Moon Empire. The patriarch of that generation was unwilling to surrender and led the strong men of the family to kill them all. The Sun and Moon Army, led by a ninth-level soul master, also suffered heavy losses to their family, and it can be said that there is no one left in the clan.”
"Afterwards, that generation of Shrek Academy Poseidon Pavilion masters stepped forward and led the three empires to defeat the Sun and Moon Empire. The remaining blood of the family moved eastward into the Dou Ling Empire, which was the weakest at the time, and chose a new location. Hidden world.”
"I am four years older than you and am my parents' eldest daughter. You are my younger brother and my parents' eldest son. Apart from that, my parents have no other children. When you were born, my father Mom took the two of us to the hometown of Tianhun to worship our ancestors. After worshiping our ancestors, we planned to go south to meet some old friends, but we never thought that something would happen on the way.”
"At that time, a group of us were traveling with a large caravan heading to Xingluo. My mother was not in good health. In addition, the journey was long and rugged. My mother's old illness relapsed and she felt unwell, so she handed you over to me while you were sleeping. My personal maid took care of you, and at the same time, she was afraid that the illness would affect you at a young age, so I went to another carriage where my aunt and others were to rest for a while.”
"But no one expected that an accident happened halfway. Days of heavy rain made the road more and more difficult to walk. The caravan leader temporarily changed his mind and took another road, but he never expected that he would encounter a group of evil spirits at the border between the two countries. The soul master intercepted and killed."
"The weather was too bad at that time, and some of the evil soul masters could actually control the corpses to explode. The scene was extremely chaotic for a while. The horses were frightened and the carriages were running around. From time to time, corpses would cause big explosions nearby. Even if my father was very skilled, Far better than the group of evil spirit masters, but he was still caught off guard, and he was accidentally contaminated with corpse poison."
"My mother's cultivation level is not very high. In addition, she has been in poor health and is not in a good state. Faced with that situation, she can only take my aunt and I to protect ourselves. Even if the other strong people traveling with my parents We couldn't protect ourselves even if we wanted to. The method of corpse explosion was too weird. In addition, the heavy rain affected the vision, and everything was too sudden. When we rushed to the carriage you were in, we found the maid and you in swaddling clothes. All have disappeared.”
Shu Yan closed his eyes and then said:
"You mean, you were intercepted and killed by the evil soul master at the border between Tianhun and Xingluo?"
"Can you be sure whether those evil soul masters are deliberately seeking revenge or they met by chance?"
Shu Yan asked two questions in succession.
Su Tong nodded. Over the years, the memory of that day flashed before her eyes like a nightmare. The gloomy sky, the violent rain, and the mud on the ground were mixed with countless pieces of meat and meat. The blood, even though she was only four years old at the time, is still fresh in her memory.
"Yes, the mountainous and forested areas on the border between the two countries have always been a densely populated place for evil soul masters to hide. As for seeking revenge, it is unlikely. It's just that we were unlucky and happened to meet them."
Shu Yan sighed lightly, and then continued:
"What happened next?"
Su Tong pursed her lips and continued:
"At first we just thought it was the maid who escaped temporarily to protect you, but then my parents, aunt and others almost searched the surrounding mountains and forests, but still couldn't find any trace of you two. In the end, we were not far away from the place where we were attacked. The body of my mother's maid and the swaddling clothes that wrapped you were found on a road more than ten miles away, but you, who should have been with her, have disappeared... ..." "After you disappeared, your parents led people to kill almost all the evil soul masters hiding in the nearby mountains and forests, but there was still no whereabouts of you. They judged that you were either devoured by that group of evil soul masters, or It was picked up by passers-by, but no matter how much manpower and material resources we invested, we still never found any news about you.”
"My mother has been ill since then, and my father has almost become bald overnight. This is their eternal heartache. Over the years, my mother has regretted and collapsed countless times. Her health is getting worse and worse, and she can only rely on various life-extending herbs. Breathe a sigh of relief with the obsession in my heart..."
Su Tong's tone became darker and darker, and her expression slowly became lowered. Over the years, she has grown up day by day, and her mother has grown older day by day. She has witnessed her mother's style in the past, and she can better understand what she is like today. How painful and depressed my mother really was.
She was born with seventh-level soul power. Under normal cultivation conditions, she should have broken through to Soul Saint at the age of nearly fifty. However, due to a heart disease, her mother had only broken through to the third-level soul power in the past fifteen years. , on average, it is almost five years since the first level, and so far they have never entered the soul saint realm.
Even her father was deeply affected and had serious flaws in his character. He has not yet entered the realm of Super Douluo.
Shu Yan was inevitably touched. His emotions had become extremely complicated. He could understand the pain and suffering of parents after losing their children. This kind of suffering can easily lead to the breakdown of a family. If the person concerned had any weaker willpower, I'm afraid...
"Back then, I was picked up by someone in Xingluo City, and then I was sent to the Xingluo Welfare Institution to be raised. After awakening my martial spirit at the age of six, I was secretly trained. Over the years, Jiujiu and Brother Huang have helped me investigate many times. My life experience, but in the end I gained nothing.”
Shu Yan was silent for a moment and then said.
The memories of his past life were suddenly recalled after he had a high fever when he was two or three years old. However, he could not recall any of his memories before he was two or three years old. If he could recover his past life memories earlier, I am afraid that all this would happen again. Very different.
Su Tong analyzed a lot of things from Shu Yan's words. The titles Jiujiu and Imperial Brother meant that her younger brother had a deep bond with the Xingluo royal family. Jiujiu was undoubtedly the current Xingluo Princess Jiujiu. She had already met him just now, and the so-called imperial brother could only be Xu Jiawei, the current Emperor of Xingluo.
However, she was also happy about it. At least her brother had received excellent training and had not endured so much hardship in the past, nor had he completely disappeared from the world.
"My current name is Shu Yan, Shu from comfort, Yan from evolution. I can't pronounce the name sister for the time being. I have guessed my origin more than once, but now that it is really clear, I don't dare to face it. Yes.”
"I don't blame you for everything in the past. None of this is your fault or mistake. It's just that fate likes to play tricks on people."
Shu Yan chuckled somewhat self-deprecatingly. He learned about the current situation of his parents from Su Tong. His mood was extremely complicated. He felt heartbroken and melancholy, but also full of confusion and bewilderment. His rationality was at a loss at this moment. When it failed to work, Shu Yan allowed his thoughts to wander and let such complex emotions engulf him. At the same time, for the first time, he felt that while fate loved him so much, it also made him unfortunate, and even more so. The family has suffered the consequences.
"My name is Su Tong, your past name was..."
Before Su Tong could finish speaking, Shu Yan reached out to stop him.
"No need to tell me this, I am who I am, whether my surname is Shu or Su, I am still the same person."
Shu Yan leaned back on his seat, feeling a slight pain in his heart.
A hint of heartache flashed in Su Tong's eyes. She opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.
The reunion of sister and brother is obviously a very exciting and happy thing, but the gap between her brother and her and the family behind her still needs time to be eliminated. She really wants to hold Shu Yan in her arms and express her longing. and pain.
When Shu Yan was just born, she vowed to be a qualified older sister and to protect her younger brother from wind and rain, but in the end, they ended up being separated for more than ten years.
After a long silence, until the sky turned dark and the lights all over the city came on, Shu Yan slowly stood up, took a deep breath, and then said:
"Ignore other things first, just for these two days, you will lead the way, I am going to meet them. Since all this has a cause, it must also have a result. Don't have any psychological burden. I will take care of all this from beginning to end. I have never blamed you, and I am willing to accept you, I just...some...some..."
Shu Yan was a little speechless and couldn't say the next words.
Su Tong raised her head suddenly, and then there was a hint of surprise in her eyes. She originally thought that Shu Yan was unwilling to accept them, but now it seems that all this is different from what she thought.
She doesn't mind whether Shu Yan is willing to recognize his ancestor and return to the clan. As long as he is willing to recognize her as sister and her parents behind her, everything will be fine. She doesn't care about the rest.
"Okay, are you ready to tell me that the family is now stationed in the northern part of the Dou Ling Empire, and I will immediately pass the news back to the family..."
Su Tong's voice was trembling slightly, and a drop of crystal flashed across her cold and fair face. It was hard to imagine that an ice beauty like her could shed tears.
Shu Yan's eyes were complicated, and he stretched out his hand to gently wipe away the tears, and then continued:
"Come back to the palace with me. The Titled Douluo accompanying you must have been taken back by Jiujiu and the others. I still have one more thing to deal with. We can talk again in the next two days. If you have You can feel free to ask me anything you want to know, no need to be cautious.”
Su Tong looked at Shu Yan blankly, sniffed, then nodded slightly and said softly:
"I listen to you..."
Shu Yan also nodded, stretched out a hand and put it on Su Tong's shoulder, and said at the same time:
"Don't resist, I'll take you back..."
Su Tong was very obedient without any resistance or rejection. In a flash of silver light, the two figures disappeared instantly. They were about two kilometers away. In less than a minute, the two successfully entered the palace...
