As the stone door closed again, the light in the secret room dimmed. Only a small ventilation window could vaguely cast some light from the outside into the room.
Suddenly——
Wow!
The nine iron chains that locked the skinny figure with his back to all living beings suddenly straightened up one by one, and the scattered gray hair was flying in the wind, as if there was an inexplicable "momentum" leading all of this.
.
Slowly, the thin figure's originally lowered head suddenly raised.
Like a dragon, raise your head!
Two rays of divine light burst out, which were his eyes. He opened his eyes, and the divine light in his eyes was like two blazing sacred fires. What stood out against his face was that it seemed unusual at first glance.
A ferocious face.
There were two vertical and horizontal wounds on his face that was so thin that it was almost skinny. These two wounds almost cut off his face, making it difficult for people to imagine how badly he suffered back then.
As the wound healed, the new flesh turned a dazzling red color, looking like a large earthworm squirming.
Even so, this face gives people a masculine and domineering look. Judging from the outline of the face, he was also an extremely handsome and elegant man back then.
His eyes were originally filled with endless grief and silence, a lifeless sense of desolation, as if a person sinking under the abyss could not see the sorrow of seeing the light of day again. Nothing is greater than the death of the heart.
gaze.
But now, a little bit of vitality began to gather in these eyes. After this bit of vitality began to gather, it began to take root and sprout, growing rapidly, making his heart, which was already as lifeless as a dry well, begin to inject silk.
Silk vitality.
"My—son!"
He opened his mouth to talk to himself. Just when he asked Ye Huang where his child was, Ye Huang was in a very brief trance and lost his mind.
He sensed it and captured it, from which he deduced that his son, who had suffered an accident before he was a full moon that year, was still alive, and that the Ye family knew about his son's condition.
In the sudden change that year, he fought alone against three powerful warriors in the Martial Saint Realm, fought his way out of the endless siege by masters, and allowed his beloved woman to leave with her son who was not yet one month old.
At that time, he only had one thought in his mind: he should not be afraid of dying in battle, but he must protect his wife and children before he died in battle. Before he fell, he must let his woman leave with her children and escape from the ancient martial arts world.
You have to live incognito.
He did it. Even in the face of the siege by the three powerful Martial Saint Realm experts, even if there were half-step Martial Saint Realm and peak Martial Ancestor Realm powerhouses around him, he still fought his way out and let his
The woman fled with her child.
In the end, he fought until he collapsed from exhaustion, but he did not die.
The Ye family came forward to protect him on the condition that he be imprisoned here with the Nine Dragon Lock.
Unexpectedly, more than half a month later, a bad news came. The woman he loved died. She returned to the ancient martial arts world and killed all the way towards the Ye family, with the purpose of saving him.
But how could she, a woman, be able to defeat the powerful men from all sides who initiated this incident?
She was intercepted on the way, stained with blood all the way, and finally fell down in front of the Ye family gate.
He heard that she kept chanting his name when she fell, with no regrets in her eyes and a smile on her face.
He understood what she meant. From the moment she married him, she was born as a member of the Ye family and died as a ghost of the Ye family.
Even if he is about to die, he still has to come to Ye's house and wants to see him again.
At that time, he was so filled with hatred that he frantically struggled against the nine thick iron chains until his body was covered in blood and blood flowed all over the floor. How could he, who had suffered huge injuries, break free from the most cruel Nine Dragon Locks?
However, the Ye family did not mention his child. He once thought that with his wife's intelligence, he must have found a thoughtful way to entrust the child, so he went back to the Ye family alone to rescue him.
go.
How could she survive knowing that she was imprisoned?
From that moment on, he was despairing of all thoughts and his heart was as dry as a well. He sat alone with his back to all living beings, with only one belief supporting him - his child!
He had a premonition that his child would still be alive.
The masterminds back then were so ruthless that they would probably try their best to get rid of their own children in order to eradicate the root cause.
But since he is worthy of the trust of the woman he loves, he presumably has a way to protect his child so that he can grow up healthily.
Therefore, if he waits for more than twenty years, he is giving himself a chance and giving his children a chance to grow.
Judging from Ye Huang's brief reaction during the test just now, he was sure that his child was still alive and had grown up.
This was the reason why his dead heart was rekindled with life.
"Qing, Qingshi... my, our... child... is still alive! I, I will wait for him to come!"
The skinny figure was talking to himself, but his turbid eyes began to turn red and moist.
"My son... I am waiting for you as a father!"
There was a trace of gentleness flashing in the red eyes of the skinny figure.
To this day, he still remembers the chubby little face when he was a baby, and the innocent eyes that were as dark and bright as the boundless starry sky. He even remembers the feeling in his heart when he held the little hand for the first time when the child was just born.
The warm feeling of being touched.
That's the feeling of being a father.
That was his child. At that time, he could only babble.
He still remembered that one time when he was changing diapers, he held the child on his body, but the kid peed all over him, which made him laugh. He smiled to the woman he loved and said that his child would definitely be upright in the future.
Such a big shot, he dared to urinate on the head of a saint-level powerhouse at such a young age.
His beautiful and virtuous woman reached out and patted the child's butt and said with a smile, then pee more.
Bits and pieces of precious memories came to mind, making his heart throb.
"Qingshi, in this life, I, I can't protect you... but I will definitely protect our child!"
The skinny figure muttered to himself.
His skinny hands were tightly clenched into fists. Once upon a time, his fists were all over the world, and he dared to make the powerful martial saints surrender to their fists.
How long has this been?
His fist has never been clenched again!
How long has this been?
The blood in his body has never boiled again!
As he clenched his fist again, a domineering and boundless momentum filled the entire secret room, as if the dark dragon that had been sleeping for eternity was about to wake up and take flight again.
When the day comes when the dragon raises its head, he will dare to let the world understand what it means - to be proud of the dragon and regret it!
The dragon lurks in the abyss, but once it soars, it will regret it if it rises high!
