Ye Chen looked at Shi Xiuyun, his heart warmed, and he briefly recounted his experiences over the years, skipping the story of his life and death in search of strength, and just said that he survived and moved to Sichuan Province.
Shi Xiuyun cried while listening. Ye Chen lost his martial arts, lost all his martial arts, and even lost the protection of the Ye family. From a top young man, he became a homeless orphan living in the open. Over the years, Ye Chen
Chen Dingran suffered countless pains.
Mother and son, who had only met for a long time, were sitting and chatting like this, just like when Shi Xiuyun told Ye Chen bedside stories.
The two chatted about many interesting things about Ye Chen's childhood. This chat lasted until late at night. The sky was dotted with stars and was vast, but the emotional bond between the two mother and son remained unchanged.
Shi Xiuyun looked at Ye Chen, and could still vaguely see his childhood appearance between Ye Chen's brows, and was extremely emotional.
"Chen'er, you were only a little tall back then. Nine years later, your mother is only as tall as your shoulders!"
When Ye Chen was expelled from the Ye family, he was just a ten-year-old child, petite and weak, but now, he has grown into a man of indomitable strength.
"Of course, you, mom, protected me in the past. Now, it's my turn to protect you!"
Ye Chen smiled mischievously, just like before.
In the past few years of life and death, he thought he had become indifferent to family affection, but only when he saw Shi Xiuyun did he realize that these feelings had always been hidden in his heart and had never been forgotten.
The family affection that blood is thicker than water is irreplaceable!
"By the way, Mom!" Ye Chen suddenly asked, "How did you recognize me?"
Shi Xiuyun smiled when he heard this: "When you were first born, you were weak and sick, so I went to the Qilian Mountains and found many rare medicinal materials to heal your body. This lasted for three years. It was not until you were four years old that I gave the medicine
It’s broken, but because of long-term use of medicine, you naturally have a medicinal fragrance that is different from ordinary people!”
"The smell is very light and others can't feel it, but you are my son, how can I not tell the difference?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen suddenly realized and was even more moved. Nine years later, Shi Xiuyun could still remember all his characteristics. With such a mother, he would have no regrets in his life!
"Chen'er!" Shi Xiuyun's eyes paused, and his tone suddenly became a little lower.
"Do you... hate your grandfather and your father?"
With these words, the atmosphere in the entire Zen room suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Ye Chen did not answer directly. He pondered slightly and his eyes suddenly turned cold.
"Mom, I want to know why they did this back then!"
"Tell me, why did everything happen to me?"
Ye Chen's voice was cold and his eyes were piercing. Shi Xiuyun could feel the overwhelming anger in his voice.
It was not hatred, but anger, a kind of rage at being abandoned and betrayed by loved ones.
"Chen'er, you have the right to know the truth, and you should also know the truth!"
Shi Xiuyun was silent for a moment, his eyes flashing slightly, as if he had returned to that stormy night that year.
"Chen'er, you were born in the Ye family, but because you were too young at the time, you didn't know some of the history of the Ye family!"
"The Ye family has a long history and a mysterious origin. Even your father and your grandfather don't know where their ancestors came from. We only know that the first generation head of the Ye family in the capital was your grandfather, your grandfather's grandfather!"
"The Ye family is a martial arts family. Almost every generation will produce one or two martial arts geniuses. They use martial arts to secure the country and rule the family. After you were born, you showed extremely powerful martial arts talents. You are the most outstanding in the history of the Ye family in the capital.
Martial arts genius!"
"More than a year after you were born, I gave birth to your younger brother Ye Xing, but compared with Xing'er, you are more talented and progress faster, so your grandfather and your father both have high hopes for you and just want to give everything to you.
The best things for you, they really love you and care about you meticulously. These things come from the heart and you should be able to feel it!"
Ye Chen was silent and did not refute. Indeed, he was the proud son of the Ye family at the time. The entire Ye family, including Ye Shan, all the guards and servants, regarded him as the Ye family's treasure and took good care of him in every aspect.
.
All this is definitely not artificial, he can feel that Ye Shan and Ye Yunlong attach great importance to him!
But he didn't feel much gratitude, and his face was still frosty, waiting for Shi Xiuyun's next words.
"Both your father and your grandfather have trained you as the future head of the family, and they have taught you all the treasures of martial arts!"
"But all the changes happened nine years ago, on your tenth birthday!"
Shi Xiuyun's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice.
"The Ye family has been handed down martial arts, and in the Ye family, there is a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation, called the 'Tongtian Mirror'!"
"There is no way to know where the Tongtian Mirror came from. It is said that it was passed down from ancient times and was obtained by the ancestors of the Ye family, so it has been passed down to this day!"
"The Tongtian Mirror does have incredible magical powers. Although it can only be used once every ten years, it has the power to predict future misfortunes and provide guidance for the Ye family. Seventy years ago,
Your grandpa once followed Tongtianjing’s instructions and asked the Ye family to follow Taizu to conquer the world. In the end, he became famous and laid the foundation for the Ye family to establish a foothold in the capital and become famous in one fell swoop!"
"Fifty years ago, your great-great-grandfather also allowed the Ye family to recuperate and survive the darkest period because of the Tongtian Mirror's predictions. Only then could he accumulate strength and attack in one fell swoop, ascending to the throne of the top wealthy family in the capital.
!”
Ye Chen nodded secretly, not feeling strange at all. In this world, magic, martial arts, and supernatural powers are rampant. Many treasures have been around since ancient times, and it is not uncommon for them to have magical effects!
Shi Xiuyun continued: "Since then, the Tongtian Mirror has become the Ye family's supreme treasure, and your great-great-grandfather has even set an ancestral precept that every generation of family heads and every descendant of the Ye family must follow the instructions of the Tongtian Mirror.
Only in this way can the Ye family be prosperous and the firepower be passed on!"
"Nine years ago, your grandfather would suddenly order you to be expelled from the Ye family, and your father would strip off your martial arts veins, just because of the Tongtian Mirror!"
When Ye Chen heard this, his eyes suddenly focused and his fists were already clenched.
"On your birthday nine years ago, it was the time when the Tongtian Mirror wakes up every ten years!"
"That day, your grandfather followed the example of previous Ye family heads and asked Tongtianjing about the future direction of the Ye family, and Tongtianjing gave very clear instructions!"
"The reality of Tongtian Jing is that in nine years, the Ye family will encounter a disaster unprecedented in history, enough to destroy the Ye family!"
"The only way to survive this calamity is to abolish your martial arts and throw you into the barren mountains!"
When Ye Chen heard this, he felt extremely ridiculous.
Nine years later, the Ye family suffered a catastrophe. They wanted to survive, but they had to destroy a ten-year-old child. What kind of truth is this?
Throughout the history of the Ye family, there have been many disasters, but no one has ever said that they need to harm their fellow clan members to be saved. However, Tong Tian Jing signaled Ye Shan to attack him. This is simply a big joke!
He snorted coldly, feeling extremely ironic.
"Is this the basis for Ye Shan to designate me as the bane of the family? Is this the reason why Ye Yunlong wants to abolish my martial arts?"
Ye Chen sneered three times, each one more mocking than the last, and each one more desolate than the other.
He originally thought that he had done something wrong and he didn't even know it, so Ye Shan and Ye Yunlong were so cruel to him.
But in the end, the Ye family expelled him from the Ye family and stripped him of his martial arts just because of the instruction of a mirror. This is simply stupid.
If a family needs to destroy its fellow clansmen in order to continue, and cannot rely on itself to survive the disaster, how can it be strong and why is it necessary to exist?
