Could it really be as Yang Jiutian said, that Jiang Hai was behind it, ordering the kidnapping of the two children?
This thought had just emerged when Chen Yi dismissed it; her Daughter was still in Jiang Hai's hands, and if Jiang Hai knew of her suspicions, her Daughter would be in danger.
"Don't cry, Chen'er, you must have mistaken him. If he were truly your Dad, why wouldn't he recognize you?"
Chen Yi hugged Chen'er tightly and comforted him softly.
"No, Chen'er wasn't mistaken, he is Dad, wuwu..."
After a long while, Chen Yi looked at Chen'er crying in his sleep, her mind filled with Yang Jiutian's image.
Is it really you?
Jiang City, on the banks of the Old Dragon River.
After leaving Chen Yi's home, Yang Jiutian came here, like a statue, looking down at the surging river water.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, he knelt heavily on both knees, and the stones beneath his knees shattered in response.
"Dad, Mom, your unfilial son Yang Jiutian has come to pay respects to you!"
Yang Jiutian's expression was pained and twisted, his voice choked with sobs.
"Bang!"
Then he heavily kowtowed again, prostrating on the ground, not getting up for a long time; only from his slightly trembling body could one see the grief in his heart.
"Five years ago, the Yang Family was annihilated, and we were chased here. It was you who pushed me into the Old Dragon River, fighting desperately to hold off the Assassins, which allowed me to survive."
"Yet I didn't even have the chance to collect your bodies."
"Your unfilial son Yang Jiutian bows again!"
"Bang bang bang!"
He kowtowed repeatedly, shaking the heavens and earth.
Yang Jiutian's forehead was already a bloody mess, but this physical pain was less than one-ten-thousandth of the grief in his heart.
"Teacher!"
Seeing this scene, the disciples standing behind him were all stunned.
Yang Jiutian slowly got up and asked without turning his head, "Are there any results from the matters I assigned you?"
Di Long quickly stepped forward and replied, "The Sheng Tian Group, founded by your Father, has been recovered, and you now have one hundred percent control."
He then added, "However, there are currently no clues regarding the annihilation of the Yang Family."
Yang Jiutian frowned slightly. With his current power, could he really not find anything?
It seems this mysterious force is truly not simple.
"Teacher!"
Just as Di Long finished speaking, Xiang Zhan immediately added, "Teacher, I've found out something very important. The reason Mistress had to marry Jiang Hai was entirely out of necessity!"
"What did you say?"
Yang Jiutian spun around abruptly.
Xiang Zhan quickly said, "Mistress used marrying Jiang Hai as a condition to beg him to save the two children."
"Jiang Hai deceived Mistress, saying that the young Junior Sister was frightened and was recuperating at the Jiang Family, and that he would let the mother and Daughter see each other after he married Mistress."
Suddenly, an astonishing killing intent erupted from Yang Jiutian, "So you're saying she didn't truly want to marry Jiang Hai, and it was all out of necessity?"
"Yes! Mistress is still being kept in the dark by Jiang Hai and doesn't know the truth at all."
Xiang Zhan said, "Also, the little boy who was rescued with the young Junior Sister is not Jiang Hai's child, but... your child!"
"What did you say? What did you say?"
"He... he is my son? My son?"
Yang Jiutian suddenly grabbed Xiang Zhan's shoulder, his emotions extremely agitated, "The little boy who was rescued with Yu'er, is he my son?"
Xiang Zhan quickly nodded and took out a paternity test. When Yang Jiutian saw the result "Confirmed Biological Parent," he could no longer control his emotions.
"Hahahahaha..."
Yang Jiutian laughed wildly towards the sky, "I have a son, I Yang Jiutian have a son!"
He couldn't imagine how devastating the incident five years ago had been for Chen Yi.
He also didn't dare to think about how Chen Yi had endured carrying a child for ten months while also taking care of her Daughter.
He didn't dare to think about what this woman he loved the most had gone through and how many hardships she had endured over the past five years.
He laughed wildly towards the sky, but his tears were uncontrollable.
"Teacher, after the tragic annihilation of the Yang Family that year, the Chen Family, fearing implication, drove Mistress out of the Family."
"It was then that Mistress discovered she was pregnant. To preserve the Yang Family Bloodline, no matter how hard or tiring it was, she was determined to give birth to the child."
"Over the past five years, Mistress has been alone, having to take care of both the young Junior Sister and the young Junior Brother. Life has been very difficult."
"The young Junior Sister, to lighten Mistress's burden, even went to a shady clinic to sell her blood."
"Teacher, she has sacrificed too much. In this life, I only recognize her as my Mistress!"
After Xiang Zhan finished speaking, Di Long immediately knelt on one knee, "Teacher, if the Jiang Family is not destroyed and Jiang Hai does not die, it will be against the laws of nature!"
"I will go and destroy the Jiang Family now and bring Jiang Hai's head to see you!"
Di Long had a fierce expression. As the dignified Hall Master of the foreign Dragon Hall, he would never be soft-hearted towards enemies.
"I didn't expect this bastard to be so despicable."
Yang Jing also knelt on one knee and roared, "Teacher, Yang Jing requests to fight! I am willing to lead Beijing's Nine Great War Gods to go and conquer the Jiang Family!"
"Teacher, Divine Doctor Sect's Li Changsheng requests to fight! I am willing to mobilize the Divine Doctor Sect to conquer the Jiang Family!"
"Teacher, Beijing's richest man Qian Duoduo requests to fight! I am willing to mobilize all assets in Jiang City to conquer the Jiang Family!"
...
Any one of these nine people was a top figure with immense power in their respective fields. At this moment, they were all requesting to fight, demanding the destruction of the Jiang Family!
Any single one of them could flatten the entire Jiang City, let alone the Royal Venerable Nine Disciples, all declaring war together!
"A mere Jiang Family dares to threaten my woman?"
Suddenly, an astonishing killing intent erupted from Yang Jiutian's body, "My woman, Yang Jiutian's woman, shall be as revered as an Emperor!"
Yang Jiutian stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the surging river water, and suddenly spoke, "Three days from now, I will hold a grand wedding for her! As for Jiang Hai..."
"On that day, I will make him lose everything and be utterly disgraced!"
