Chapter 12: Hand-to-hand combat! Nan Yuexi’s past!
The Seven Blessings Inn buzzed with excitement, as everyone present was convinced that the collaboration of these two great Heavenly Prides would undoubtedly reshape the world and usher in an era of greatness.
In a corner of the inn, Elder Fei Long expressed his astonishment at Shi Hao’s newfound status as a teenage supreme. He shared his optimism about the future prospects of King Wu’s Palace.
Elder Fei Long stroked his beard and smiled, his eyes shining brightly.
As Ning Chuan’s story unfolded, they listened to the story and had already put themselves in the perspective of the King Wu’s Palace.
Naturally, they hope that this palace can be better.
Therefore, seeing that Shi Hao was also a teenage supreme, they all felt sincerely happy.
However,
“Two Heavenly Pride in one clan at the same time… I’m afraid it’s not a good thing.”Nan Xiyue said indifferently.
Hearing these words, the Elder Fei Long at the side couldn’t help but be stunned.
“Your Highness, what does this mean?” Elder Fei long inquired.
Nan Xiyue had a calm expression and said indifferently:
“The world is jealous and aggressive.”
“No one would want others to live better than themselves, to be stronger than themselves. Even if they are brothers of the same clan, it is also the same.”
“Mr. Ning also said earlier that this Shi Yi is high-minded and arrogant, and I am afraid that he has already held that he is the only one in the world and is destined to stand alone at the peak of this great world.”
“Now, Shi Hao suddenly appeared. Not only is he not weaker than him, but his future achievements may even be higher than him.”
“Elder Fei Long, what do you think of Shi Yi, what would be his mind?”
Hearing these words, Elder Fei Long’s eyes instantly shrank violently.
“Your Highness, what you mean is ……” Elder Fei Long’s heart sank, surging with a bad feeling of foreboding.
A person would become shrewd and crafty with age, elder Fei Long had lived for nearly a thousand years and had long been a sapiential essence.
At this moment, Nan Xiyue slightly nodded as a reply. Despite the situation without any explanation, he still immediately comprehended the meaning behind it.
She kept calm but looked deeply at Ning Chuan.
“How exactly, I’m not sure, still have to see how Mr. Ning arranges the following plots.”
After the words, Nan Xiyue did not speak anymore.
Instead, she raised her head, and her gaze seemed to pass through the roof of the carved artistic design, looking towards the boundless long sky.
In her eyes, a retrospective look appeared.
A memory that was once the most painful for her came flooding back to her mind.
“I hope the plot doesn’t develop as I did back then.” Nan Xiyue murmured and sighed softly.
…….
Meanwhile, on the high platform, Ning Chuan observed the audience’s reactions. He noted the various emotions and reactions playing out across their faces, which provided insight into their characters and inclinations.
One clan, two heavenly prides?
Working together to open up a great era?
Walking together towards the peak of the Dao?
“Naive.”
Ning Chuan faintly smiled in his heart.
Then, he picked up his cup of tea and took a sip of the tea that had already cooled down.
Ning Chuan’s voice became lower as he slowly opened his mouth and said:
“When Shi Yi saw the Supreme Bone in Shi Hao’s body, at that moment, no one knew what was running through in his mind, a boy of not yet ten years old.”
“Only Shi Yi knew clearly that it was a feeling of a toy that originally belonged only to him, suddenly being snatched away by half.”
“That toy was a glory that belonged exclusively to him, a halo that belonged exclusively to him.”
“He looked at his innocent Shi Hao, and inexplicably, he had an indescribable feeling of disgust for him.”
“No, instead of saying that it was a sense of disgust, perhaps it would be better to say that it was his fear and lack of confidence that originated from deep inside.”
“He’s afraid… Fear that he will be inferior to Shi Hao in the future.”
“So, he took the news and told his mother Yu about it.”
“At that moment, Yu’s entire heart was beating madly!”
” ‘It’s the Supreme Bone! Shi Hao actually had a Supreme Bone on him! If my son, Shi Yi had it, would… would he be truly invincible in the future?’ In Yu’s mind, an extremely crazy and bold idea suddenly arose.”
“In the following time, Yu’s surface behavior looked as usual, everything was as normal, but in reality, she had been scheming and planning something.”
“She was waiting for an opportunity, waiting for a foolproof opportunity.”
“Until one day, news came from the battlefield of the hundred clans that Shi Ziling and his wife were deeply surrounded by the enemy and their lives were unknown.”
“Yu knew that her chance, finally… has come!!!”
After Hearing this, all the listeners present were instantly shaken and drew a cold breath backward.
“What Yu… wants to do?”
“This Yu, is she crazy? Does she want to harm Shi Hao?”
“No!”
“My God, Shi Hao is only two or three years old. Could it be that Mrs. Yu has the heart to harm the little one?”
“Shi Hao called her ‘aunt’. Aunt, that’s equal to half a mother! How could Yu be so cruel to harm someone who called her mother?”
“No, the plots are too cruel!”
In a moment, the audiences in the hall all understanded what would happen and their heart and soul couldn’t help but become depressed.
The little child Shi Hao, naive and innocent, had long been deeply loved in their hearts as well.
At this moment, seeing Yu wanted to harm little Shi Hao.
The listeners were all unable to sit still.
……
“Even if it is a story, is it too cruel? Do the plots have to go down this road …?”
In the south corner of the Inn, Nan Xiyue’s face surged in mockery.
“Have the supreme bone, is it the fault of little Shi Hao?… Just like me back then, having the Extreme-Yin body, is it my fault?”
Remembering her past, she was born in the Nangong family of Li Province.
Because of the extreme Yin body, she not only couldn’t cultivate, but also couldn’t touch others.
Anyone who touched her would be penetrated by Yin Qi, causing significant harm to their vitality.
But at that time, the Nangong family did not know the reason that Nan Yuexi had the extreme Yin body.
Therefore, she was considered by the family as a ‘calamity’, ‘bad omen’, and ‘scourge’.
All kinds of unpleasant words had fallen on her.
Those words, like a knife, had stabbed this young girl devastated.
The blood relatives in the family were all afraid of her like snakes and scorpions, avoiding her for fear as if they would be catched by bad luck.
Thus, everyone secretly cursed her, and wanted her to die immediately!
Even her own parents, unwillingly getting close with her as well.
She once remembered.
During her childhood, she would experience unbearable coldness throughout her body every full moon night, akin to falling into an ice-cold pit . The unbearable pain was resembling to enduring a grievous torture.
It was a cold and stabbing pain that penetrated deep into her marrow.
“Mother, I’m so cold.”
As a child, Nan Xiyue had been lying on the sickbed with white lips and trembling and said towards her mother.
She reached out her hand, wanting her mother to hug her.
Even if this hug would not let her alleviate half of the pain, it would still be a great psychological comfort.
“Don’t close to me! Take your hands away and don’t touch me!!”
However, the answer was her mother’s hysterical, shrill scream.
“Don’t call me mother! I’m not your mother!!! I don’t have a catastrophic child like you!!!”
This moment, her heart twitched as if being stabbed by a knife.
These cruel words were uttered in her mother’s mouth.
Her heart was dripping blood.
Whereafter, by chance , she met the elders of Heaven-Saint Palace.
And she was detected to be the constitution of the extremely yin body.
When she ran back to the family with great joy, wanting to tell them: [Father and mother, I am not a calamity, I just had the extreme yin body, I will not hurt you].
She imagined the scenes that her parents would be happy, honored for her, they would be willing to hug her from this moment.
Instead, the families reacted indifferently. Even her mother proposed using a secret method to transfer her extreme yin body to her brother…
“Xiyue Ah, you are a girl, finding someone to marry will be your fate, I am your mother and will arrange a good family for you, and they will not treat you badly.”
“But this extreme yin body of yours, if it is transferred to your brother, your brother will have a bright future!”
“Maybe our Nangong family can rise because of your brother!”
On that day, Nan Yuexi let out a miserable laugh.
Therefore, at this moment when she saw the familiar plot that the ‘aunt’ Yu was about to harm Shi Hao, her heart couldn’t help but ache once more.
