Back at the apartment. Ye Chen poured a glass of water for Wei Ying and asked, “Did you feel anything when you used the ice sword just now?”
Wei Ying shook her head and said, “I don’t know. It’s a strange feeling. It was as if… I can’t explain it clearly.”
She scratched her head in frustration.
“What should I do? I feel like there’s something wrong with me. I think I have schizophrenia. Do you think I should see a doctor?”
“I keep feeling like there’s a voice and another person inside me. She can talk to me, and even says that she is the Fiendish Blood Cold Physique…”
In the end, she still voiced out the doubts she had in her heart.
She would never tell her parents or even her best friend about this.
Those people would definitely think that she was crazy. Therefore, Ye Chen was undoubtedly the best person to talk to. After all, he seemed to be at the center of all of these mysterious things.
Ye Chen frowned. He had guessed correctly. The Earth Soul Mystical Stone could no longer suppress the Fiendish Blood Cold Physique in Wei Ying’s body.
“This isn’t some kind of mental illness. This is the power condensed in your bloodline, or you can say that it’s another you.”
That was the only explanation Ye Chen could give her.
“Another me? What if the other me controls me one day? Will she devour me? Then will I die?” Wei Ying asked a few questions.
There were some things that she did not understand, but that did not mean that she was stupid.
“This is also the reason why I want you to cultivate. You can still control the Fiendish Blood Cold Physique a little now, but in the future, it will become more and more powerful. The only thing you can do is to cultivate. The stronger you are, the stronger your mind and divine soul will be. Only then can you suppress the Fiendish Blood Cold Physique and use it to strengthen yourself.”
When Wei Ying heard Ye Chen’s words, she frowned, and her face turned pale. She did not want to be controlled. In that case, she could only cultivate.
The living room became quiet, but suddenly, she thought of something and her eyes were filled with determination.
“I will definitely cultivate diligently.”
Wei Ying then stood up and walked towards her apartment.
However, after taking a few steps, she turned back and stuck out her tongue. She said shyly, “Ye Chen, I’m a little scared to be alone. Can I stay here for a while longer? Just for a while.”
Ye Chen looked at Wei Ying and nodded.
He was the one to blame for this. He had killed someone in front of Wei Ying, and that brutal scene was likely to haunt her nightmares.
Wei Ying smiled when she received Ye Chen’s reply. She then sat down at the side and began cultivating. Within a one-meter radius around her, the air seemed to freeze.
Ye Chen ignored Wei Ying and took out a book that Bao Xinhe had found in the Lin family’s residence.
There were complicated symbols recorded in the book that only he and Ye Tianzheng could understand.
For example, if the word ‘kill’ was expressed in this secret language between father and son, it would appear as a steel fork symbol.
However, because it had been so long since he last used this secret language, Ye Chen could not remember some things clearly.
While Ye Tianzheng was trapped, he had been thinking of ways to leave day and night. However, he did not have the ability to do so.
His father knew that Ye Chen would eventually come to save him, but was afraid that he would either not be alive or would be taken somewhere else. Thus, he used this method to communicate.
Ye Chen flipped through the pages, translating every symbol as he did.
After an entire hour, he finally understood what was written here.
“Little Chen, I know that if you are reading this message now, I would probably have been transported elsewhere. Don’t be disappointed if you don’t see me.”
“I’m really happy that you have become strong now. Although I’m trapped, there’s no danger. There’s no need to worry about me.”
“Now that you’re the pillar of the family, you must protect your mother well. Your mother is a kind woman and has suffered too much to be with me all these years. All this while, her wish has always been for our family to be recognized by the Jiang family. I’ve tried my best to help her realize it, but eventually realized that it was impossible for me.”
“However, I believe you can do it.”
“I hope that you will take good care of your mother while I am away. Your mother has contracted rheumatism thanks to our years of being confined in the Ghost Prison. If there is a chance, take her to the best hospital to have it checked out.”
“I hesitated for a long time before deciding to tell you what I’m going to say. Actually, I still have to thank the Lin family. If it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t have been able to calm down and think about these things.”
“First, I am temporarily safe. At least it seems very difficult for ordinary people to kill me. There seems to be a force in my body that is secretly protecting me. I to kill me. There seems to be a force in my body that is secretly protecting me. I don’t know how powerful it is though. All I know is that when the Lin family had someone try to attack me, they failed. Even the person who attacked me was seriously injured.”
“Second, I realized that the Lin family kidnapped me in order to obtain something, or some information, left behind by your grandfather. At first, I thought that the Lin family was interested in your mother’s family, but this seems to not be the case.”
“I thought about it a lot and I combed through all my experiences and discovered that there are various suspicious points regarding our family.”
“From the moment your mother got pregnant with you, your grandfather seemed to have been preparing for something. He knew your gender and gave you a name early on. From the time you were one year old, your grandfather seemed to have a special ceremony every year. Before you were three years old, he even took you to three places. One was Xiangjiang City, the other was the Kunlun Mountains, and the last one he didn’t elaborate on.”
“He arranged everything for you in an orderly manner. He even seemed a little mysterious. Do you still remember the stone I gave you on your birthday? Grandpa told me to give it to you, and the timing must be extremely precise.”
If you have time, you can go to Xiangjiang City and the Kunlun Mountains. Also, your grandfather had a close relationship with someone. I don’t know his name, but there is a symbol that was on his neck that I drew on the last page.”
“At this point, don’t think about it. You must take good care of your mother and keep her safe.”
Ye Chen frowned and flipped to the last page. There was indeed a picture there. Although his father’s drawing was a little unpracticed, he could still roughly determine its features.
Ye Chen realized that things were getting more and more complicated.
His grandfather had taken him to Xiangjiang City and the Kunlun Mountains. In that case, he should have been to the Kunlun Mountains when he was very young. As for what he did there, he did not know.
Also, he did not think that an old man would bring a child who was less than three years old to travel in Xiangjiang City.
There had to be a shocking secret hidden somewhere related to his background, the Samsara Graveyard, and his bloodline.
Mortal roots?
He suddenly remembered something that the Slaughter Dao Lord had said. If Ye Chen had mortal roots, then all the experts in the world would have useless roots!
Ye Chen walked over to the balcony and lit a cigarette. His thoughts drifted far away, only to be interrupted when the phone rang..
