Chapter 65: Who is he?
Jin Hanyuan wrote down the names of several enemies, and left without telling others.
ββ
"The old turtle is dead, you can come out by yourself, or you will simply wait for me to destroy your whole clan. β
Jin Hanyuan had already come to the door of the last enemy on the list at this time.
βWith a bang, as the dilapidated wooden door was pushed open, a thin old man came out.
"I'm the only one left in my family, and it's the same if you don't die, but it's ......"
Jin Hanyuan has seen a lot of this kind of tricky old guy, and he doesn't bother to say anything.
"I can tell you some secrets, and you don't have to spare my death. β
What a strange person.
Jin Hanyuan thought to himself, and stepped into the wooden house.
"My name is Roqueko, and I was a friend of the previous patriarch a long time ago. β
The old man sat at the table, poured a cup of tea for Jin Hanyuan, and refilled another cup for himself.
"Once upon a time, there was a big war. At that time, it was only us in the Transfiguration Realm, the Dark Realm, and the Ability Realm, and the Goblin did not participate. β
Taking a slow sip of tea, the old man continued.
"Because I don't know when the war started, but I can tell you that a man died at that time. β
Jin Hanyuan slapped the table.
"Joke, the war is not just a death, I think you have lived enough to entertain me. β
The old man shook his head.
"I didn't make it clear. At that time, because of the death of a person who was very important to the former transfiguration patriarch, he ......"
Suddenly, the old man's eyes widened.
"So the former patriarch had to die!"
"What do you mean?"
"I don't know anything else, as a former friend of his, that's all I know. β
"Is he injured? or is he poisoned?"
"No, it was fine when I came back. It was he himself who said it, fate is like this, and he has to die. β
Jin Hanyuan pondered for a long time, and suddenly thought of what Xiu had said. So he asked again.
"Then why did the former patriarch let that cat succeed the current patriarch?"
"Huh?"
The old man's eyes lit up.
"I thought what Tandin said was false, is it true?"
"What did Tandin say?"
"He said that he had received a letter, and the former patriarch said that the cat demon was designated as his successor, and at first I thought that the cat demon was growing too fast at different ages and was a threat to him. I didn't expect it to be true. β
"What else?"
These things are not of much value to Jin Hanyuan.
"Then there is no other. β
The old man stood up, "You can do it, I also know that sooner or later there will be this day, I thought that it was either Tanding or the cat demon, but I didn't expect that it was indeed a woman we didn't know." β
Seeing that the person in front of him really didn't know anything else, Jin Hanyuan didn't hesitate, and learned about this person's life.
ββ
"You're back, Kite. β
Jin Hanyuan sat on the ground and threw out a small cloth bag.
"It's all dead, look at it. By the way, does the succession ceremony need anything else, or if there are more than how many opponents you can't succeed?"
Shaking his head, he opened his mouth.
"No, as long as the diamond-shaped key is taken out, no one will object, but ......"
"What?"
Xiu stretched out her hand to hold Jin Hanyuan's cold hand, she didn't pull it away, but she didn't clench it either.
"I just want to spend the rest of my life with you, I haven't thought about being a patriarch, you can go with me, okay?"
Jin Hanyuan was expressionless and looked at him coldly.
"Why are you so confident that I will be with you again?"
Xiu slowly moved closer to Jin Hanyuan.
"Kite, don't be afraid, there is me. β
As he spoke, he slowly hugged Jin Hanyuan and said softly.
"What are you doing?"
Although Jin Han's mouth was tough, perhaps because of his greed for this long-lost embrace, he stalemate for a few seconds and did not break free.
"Kites...... When I regain my age, I will still protect you. β
Jin Hanyuan was in Xiu's arms, not struggling, and not responding.
Xiu's right hand was gently placed on Jin Hanyuan's silky hair.
"I know what Kite is worried about, you've always been so ......"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiu suddenly saw a picture flash in front of his eyes.
A man in a plain robe pointed at another man, and behind him was an abyss.
The mouth moved, and the man was imprisoned in mid-air. Then, like a flying insect with broken wings, it fell straight into the cliff.
Although he couldn't see the faces of the two of them clearly, and he couldn't hear what they were saying, such a familiar feeling poured into Xiu's mind.
What's going on, why has such a strange picture appeared recently, and only Jin Hanyuan's memory Xiu shook his head.
Jin Hanyuan saw the strangeness of Xiu and wanted to ask, but he still held back, broke away from his embrace, and put his hands in front of him.
"In that case, gather the elders tomorrow to prepare to take over, and I'm leaving. β
"Where are you going?"
Xiu was pulled back by Jin Hanyuan's voice.
"I naturally have a place to go, you don't have to ask. β
Jin Hanyuan turned around and left the sacred tree, leaving down the cultivation that he still wanted to keep.
Jin Hanyuan and Gu Debai were at the foot of a deserted mountain that was rarely inhabited.
"Don't give this thing to him, after I leave, this is the only thing you can contact me, and you can only use it once. β
Gu Debai took a piece of broken jade from Jin Hanyuan's hand.
"Why are you doing this, you really can't think about staying?"
"I ......"
"If that Xi is really so important to you, there will be no gap in your heart that can accommodate other feelings, which means that you don't love him as much as you imagined. Perhaps, you are just guilty, or maybe it is ......"
"Get used to it!"
Gu Debai raised his head, and after blurting out the two words, Jin Hanyuan's expression froze.
Habit......
What a blunt and terrible word, a word that made Jin Hanyuan occasionally feel painful.
"I think all this strife started because of it, and I hope that through me, it will be over. If you get used to life here, you stay, and if you want to go back to the world and be with your family, that's good. β
Goodbeth shook his head, "I don't want to go back, they might think I'm dead." β
"After all, it's your biological parents, it can't be like this, you're still a teenager, just willful. In a few years you may change your mind, but I won't persuade you. β
Goodbeth found a stone and sat down.
"Then I'll tell you my story. After all, you have made up your mind, and I am afraid that there will be no chance to chat like you do now. β
"I have a brother who told you about it before. β
Jin Hanyuan nodded. "Hmm. Said. β
"My parents were big businessmen and sometimes they would take me to see the world, but for the most part, I was in the role of showing how good my brother was. β
"That's normal, after all, you're a bit of a fool of yourself. β
"No, I used to work as hard as my brother until one day, I saw ...... with my own eyes"
Goodbeth seemed in pain and rubbed his head.
"I saw with my own eyes that he was trying to trample me under his feet and manipulate a copy of my admission letter. And pretended to be my parent and turned down the invitation to enroll in that school. β
"Why didn't you tell your parents?"
Gu Debai didn't answer, but suddenly stared at Jin Hanyuan nervously.
"Have you ever seen a kind of person? the kind that will do whatever it takes to get the end, without any bottom line, without mercy, without humanity. β
"Naturally. β
"Behind every smile, behind every compliment, there is a knife that is quenched with poison. β
"That's how my brother felt for me, and even though it was only for a moment, I knew that if I resisted, I would die without a place to die. β
"Then how do you know you can't resist?"
Goodbeth raised his head and looked at the beautiful clouds.
"Of course I can't win against him, he doesn't have a heart. It's better for me to pretend to be crazy and stupid and let him get what he wants. In this way, I also protected my parents. β
A breeze blew out of the valley, and Gu Debai took off a coat and threw it to Jin Hanyuan.
"I know you're not afraid of the cold, but a woman being cared for by a man doesn't mean she's weak and incompetent. β
Gu Debai saw that Jin Hanyuan didn't speak, and spoke again.
"The slender man is so handsome, if I were a woman, I would have knelt down and begged him to be okay with me. I'm willing to call him dad every day!"
Jin Hanyuan looked at Gu Debai with a smile and punched him in the head.
"Otherwise, you and I should go back to the Realm of Abilities. Recognize you as a little brother. β
