Chapter 69: Suspicion 🤔

Published: November 30, -0001

Three hundred years have passed, and now the two have become the top experts in the Tianwu Continent. One is the Xuanyuan Great Emperor, and the other is the Lingbo Female Emperor. They have established an unparalleled imperial dynasty and the most elite sect on the continent.

These two forces combined hold immense power, and even in remote places like the Great Qi Nation, the legendary names of the Xuanyuan Great Emperor and Lingbo Female Emperor are widely known.

Numerous geniuses across the Tianwu Continent idolize them and aim to emulate their success.

"I must surpass my past life to have a chance to seek revenge, reclaim what was once mine."

Suddenly, a sharp light flashed in Qin Chen's eyes, and an indomitable will soared skyward.

At this moment, a soft noise came from outside the door.

"Who is it?"

Qin Chen woke with a start, looked towards the door, and in a flash, like an agile cat, he arrived in the courtyard with a click.

"Chen'er, it's mother."

Outside, Qin Yuechi stood in the cold wind, looking at Qin Chen with warmth.

"Mother, why are you here? It's cold outside, come in quickly."

Qin Chen breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly brought Qin Yuechi inside.

Closing the door, the cold wind was instantly shut out. Qin Chen said with concern, "Mother, how long have you been standing outside? Why didn't you say anything?"

In this period of being together, Qin Chen fully accepted Qin Yuechi. Having been an orphan in his past life, Qin Chen felt the warmth of a mother's love in this life.

"Mother is fine, I'm just happy today." Qin Yuechi looked at Qin Chen with gentle eyes, lightly caressing his face. "I just remembered when you were three, once you accidentally fell into the pond in the mansion while playing. By the time the servants found you, you had already fainted. I was so worried and rushed to take you to the Xuan Yi Medicine Pavilion for herbs. You only woke up the next day. You don't know how scared I was then, afraid of losing you."

As Qin Yuechi spoke, tears dripped onto Qin Chen's face, warm and gentle.

Qin Chen paused and said with a smile, "Mother, you must remember wrong. I remember that I was five when I fell into the pond, and I was unconscious for three days. You stayed by my bed for those three days, and when I first opened my eyes, I saw you asleep by the bed, crying in your dreams. The pillow was wet. I secretly swore not to let you cry again."

"Really?" Qin Yuechi smiled gently, and Qin Chen sensed she seemed relieved. "Perhaps mother remembered it wrong."

"Yes, maybe you've been too tired these days. And it wasn't that I accidentally fell into the pond, but that Qin Fen tripped me. If Sister Qin Ying hadn't found me and called the servants to rescue me, I might not be alive now," Qin Chen recalled with lingering fear. "But today, I finally avenged that incident."

Qin Chen's eyes flashed with determination. "When I was in the Qin family, I swore to become a strong person. So I trained hard and joined the Tianxing Academy. But I couldn't awaken my bloodline until after Wei Zhen injured me. Suddenly, I understood things I couldn't before, my bloodline awakened, and my cultivation speed increased significantly."

"Oh?" Qin Yuechi frowned. "I've heard that some people on the Tianwu Continent truly achieve late-blooming greatness. After experiencing a certain event, their understanding of martial arts becomes much easier, maybe you're in such a situation."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, actually, this late-blooming isn't about suddenly becoming smart. There's a saying outside, called 'enlightenment.' Could it be that you have become enlightened, Chen'er?"

"Enlightenment." Qin Chen nodded. "Maybe I have. In the future, I will become even stronger, so strong that no one can harm you."

"Chen'er, as long as you're well, mother is happy."

Qin Yuechi looked at Qin Chen with warmth and hugged him tightly.

"Huh." Suddenly, Qin Yuechi looked at Qin Chen in shock, "Chen'er, you... have your cultivation improved again?"

"Yes, I've just reached the peak of the Human Level late stage."
