Chapter 704 Yao Wan’s Parents
After basically understanding the current situation on Donglong Island, Yao Wan and Xiao Yan naturally stayed on Donglong Island for the time being.
Looking at the many figures flying above the sky, Xiao Yan can naturally see that the current situation on Donglong Island is not optimistic, and the security is getting tighter now.
“I’m afraid she’s not that easy to be the Dragon King.”
Yaowan couldn’t help but shook her head slightly behind Xiao Yan, and then said.
"...Every family has sutras that are difficult to recite. At least he is no longer the kid who asked me for pills."
Xiao Yan smiled, but couldn't help but think of it again. What did he say? The smile on his face unconsciously shrank and he said softly.
“That’s true.”
Yao Wan nodded in agreement. On this point, the Yao clan was actually pretty much the same.
It’s just that Zi Yan is different from herself.
Obviously, their daily personalities are very different, but the choices they make for their ethnicity are completely opposite.
With a particularly out-of-touch temperament, she chose to take on the responsibility of Donglong Island. After all, she had no elders and needed to take charge of the family as soon as possible.
Yaowan's eyes unconsciously showed a bit of pity.
"What's wrong? Poor people?"
Xiao Yan noticed that Yao Wan's tone was somewhat wrong compared to before, and it was not as relaxed and freehand as before, so he couldn't help but turn his head to look. He couldn't help but speak to the person beside him.
"Poor... The dignified Dragon King, do you need others to pity you?"
Yaowan chuckled and shook her head, but she was noncommittal. She was a little happy, but if anyone dared to pity her, she would definitely forgive her. Can't reach him.
“A little girl who has no love from her father and no love from her mother is probably more uncomfortable than anyone else when facing the predicament of Donglong Island.”
Yaowan sighed, at any rate There are several elders in the Medicine Clan who can help her. Although Zi Yan is talented and even more powerful, she still needs to shoulder the responsibility, and the pressure is much greater than hers.
Although it’s not like I don’t have any family members alive, it’s not much different from being dead now.
Yao Wan couldn't help but shook her head slightly. She didn't want to talk about this cheap dad now. It didn't make any difference whether he said it or not. What if the girl's rebellious mentality aroused her and she thought it was her dad who didn't do anything to get rid of her? It would be a lot of fun if he abandoned his son in the Northwest Continent and had his boss retaliate for a while.
Although the facts are quite different.
"... It's pity, but actually it's sympathy."
Yao Wan said unintentionally.
"Sympathy...?"
He said it unintentionally, but the listener had intention. Xiao Yan couldn't help but murmured softly, and then he remembered a question that he had always wanted to ask but had never asked due to various reasons.
......Wan'er's parents.
I don’t know why, but I have never heard Wan’er mention it.
I originally wanted to ask, but after thinking about it, I always felt that there might be some hidden secret in it. It felt bad to speak rashly. It was always too presumptuous.
Just mentioning it again now made Xiao Yan even more confused. He couldn't help but subconsciously said: "Speaking of which, did Wan'er's parents encounter something unexpected?"
"My parents?"
Seeing Xiao Yan suddenly mention this topic, Yao Wan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. She didn't expect that his mind would be so distracted that he suddenly mentioned this topic.
"...If it's not convenient to say, then just pretend I didn't ask."
Yao Wan's hesitation made Xiao Yan feel a little worried.
“That’s not the case, I’m just a little surprised that you suddenly asked me such a question.”
Looking at Xiao Yan's inexplicably worried expression, Yao Wan couldn't help but smile, then subconsciously raised her hand, gently caressed his cheek, comforted him a little, and said slowly: "It's just that I never mentioned this much. "I'm just a little surprised to see you asking about it."
"It's a big deal for your parents, aren't you afraid that Wan'er will be angry?"
Xiao Yan's tone was a little helpless, and he couldn't help but laugh. Herbs.
“I don’t think you have ever calmed down when I was really angry.”
Yao Wan smiled, but she couldn’t help but complain. He beat and scolded him so much that he couldn't drive him away. When had he ever seen him so scared?
But as soon as he finished speaking, Yao Wan couldn't help but let out a breath of dirty breath, and the smile on her pretty face gradually disappeared.
“Well, it’s okay to talk to you about this matter. It’s not a taboo that cannot be discussed anyway... You have been in the Yao Clan for a long time. You should also know that the Yao Clan includes other Among the eight ancient tribes, who accounted for the largest population?”
Yao Wan’s question made Xiao Yan slightly nodded, and then said: “Is Wan’er talking about the Yi people? "
"Well, I have been waiting for these many days in the Yao Clan in vain." Yao Wan nodded and followed the words and explained: "There are millions of medicines in the Yao Clan. Ethnic people, they have no cultivation or status, and the vast majority of them are indeed no different from ordinary people, living at the foot of the sacred mountain that we have never been to.”
"They are the people with the largest proportion of the Medicine Clan, but according to the legal principles of the Medicine Clan, they cannot be considered people of the Medicine Clan in the true sense, but can only be called people of the Medicine Clan."
"Having said that, they also shoulder an extremely important mission for the Yao clan."
Yaowan took a deep breath and said: "Proliferation is important for the Yao clan. It is an extremely important matter for every race.”
“But for the Yao Clan, the bloodlines of the people of the Yao Clan have not been awakened, and it cannot help them awaken these bloodlines. Some things, It has been destined since the moment they were born that even if they were forced to activate their dormant bloodline, it would not be able to bring them much power, and would even put their lives in danger."
"These bloodlines that are too thin will not bring them much strength. This has been hidden in the bodies of the people of the medicine clan until the end of their lives, and there will be no moment of natural awakening.”
"But their existence is still irreplaceable and important to the Medicine Clan."
"Relying on the huge base of millions of Medicine Clan people, occasionally there will be births that can awaken the Medicine Clan. After individuals of the bloodline undergo the special awakening ceremony of the Medicine Clan, these gifted newborns will become true members of the Medicine Clan, receive training and education, and embark on the path of cultivation. From then on, they will be completely different from their mediocre parents. Different paths.”
“There is a special name for this among the Medicine Clan, called Bloodline Selection.”
“Those who pass the Bloodline Selection become a true member of the Medicine Clan. , and those who do not meet the conditions will continue to live as the people of the Yao people, and as the next generation of the Yi people, continue to create a new bloodline for the Yao people."
"This is the Yi people. They are born with a mission, and the blood in their bodies is like a seed. They often decide how many children they can give birth to in the future based on the results of the blood selection, whether two or three, to ensure that the number of descendants is healthy, while the Yao clan The bloodline will not deteriorate.”
Yaowan replied calmly.
And after she said so much, Xiao Yan had naturally already realized what Wan'er meant and what she wanted to say.
"So Wan'er is actually...?"
"...Well, my biological parents are also one of the millions of people of the Yao clan. "
Yaowan nodded slightly. Regarding this fact, she did not feel the need to cover up or deny it. She just felt that there was no need to mention it specifically, so she never said it.
"It's just that I am different from other compatriots who were selected by blood. Because of the specialness of my soul power, I alarmed the patriarch and many other elders since I was born. Therefore, when I was just born, the patriarch took me away. "After that, it was the patriarch who raised me."
Yaowan's tone was particularly calm, as if he was telling something that seemed to have nothing to do with him.
“For this reason, when they are about five or six years old, newborns will be taken for bloodline selection. Those who pass will stay in the middle of the sacred mountain, and their parents will also receive corresponding awards. After adulthood, if you still have feelings for your new parents, you can apply to the elders in charge of personnel to go back and visit."
"So that's it..."
Xiao Yan nodded subconsciously. He nodded and looked at Yaowan with a hint of apology.
"Then Wan'er's parents...Have Wan'er ever gone back to visit?"
"No."
There weren't many answers. Yao Wan's answer was short and simple, as usual. .
“Want to ask me why?”
“Don’t you go back and have a look?”
"——To see what? To see two familiar strangers, to see their inexplicable love and expectation for me?"
"I neither know how to face their love nor how to face it. I know how to answer their expectations of me."
Yao Wan shook her head slightly: "I heard the patriarch once accidentally mentioned that they had no worries about food and clothing because of my existence, and lived a peaceful and prosperous life. Life, for me, it is enough that they are still alive and living happily and carefree."
"You know my temper, although they are kind to me for giving birth. , but there is really no such thing as love, and I can’t express any false love for them.”
“Perhaps the best I can do for them is to live their lives peacefully like this. Good thing.”
Yao Wan's tone was calm, and then she said: "And since this is the case, my body and blood are all because of them, and I can't let others break into the Yao Clan and destroy my home."
"...No way."
Xiao Yan subconsciously stroked her hair and couldn't help but say.
"The Yao Clan will be safe, and we will be safe too."
Xiao Yan then hugged the person in front of him.
Yaowan didn't struggle, so she let Xiao Yan hug her, snorted softly, as if to express her approval, and then couldn't help but get closer to Xiao Yan's face.
It is rare for someone to do this, so Xiao Yan will not refuse.
It’s just that some people like to come to your door at any time.
“Dong dong dong——”
