Taoist Master Leaves the Mountains: All My Senior Sisters Love Me

Chapter 773: Even the Afterimage Has Withdrawn into Itself


"Isn't it, how do you speak to your master?"

Wang Ye's tone when speaking to Wang Yifeng was clearly causing dissatisfaction in Wang Yifeng's heart.

"How do I speak? It's only because you deceived me first!"

Wang Ye roared!

After that, Wang Ye launched a fierce censure against Wang Yifeng.

Wang Yifeng remained silent, waiting for Wang Ye to finish speaking, then finally spoke languidly, "Did I ever tell you that your parents were in great danger?"

Wang Ye paused.

"No."

"From the very beginning, didn't I tell you to investigate your own heritage? So aren't all these problems ones you discovered on your own?"

Wang Ye paused again.

He realized something.

Though Wang Ye was unwilling to accept this in his heart, the fact was right before him, and he could only continue with some distress, "Right."

"Then that's settled."

Wang Yifeng, with an arrogant smile on his face, said, "From start to finish, I merely asked you to investigate your own background. It was you who encountered problems while investigating your heritage. How can you blame your own mistakes on me?"

"I..."

Wang Ye suddenly found himself at a loss for words.

He realized that most of the leads on his parents had actually come from Zhao Han.

What Zhao Han said wasn't wrong, either.

Although it was mostly Zhao Han's conjecture.

But in Zhao Han's eyes, since Spirit Star existed, it must be an extremely dangerous place.

And with his parents' strength, entering Spirit Star would surely lead to problems.

Thus, Wang Ye felt like he was punching into cotton.

Autistic.

Noticing the autistic frustration in Wang Ye from behind, Wang Yifeng's smile grew even more pronounced.

Ever since Wang Ye left the mountain, the achievements he gained among Earth Star people made him increasingly dismissive in his interactions with himself.

Now, to make Wang Ye feel this frustration, Wang Yifeng felt... extremely pleased!

After wallowing in frustration for a while, Wang Ye thought of something else, "Then why were my parents able to go in at that time, but no one else could enter afterward?"

"Is it because the ancient relics have a limit on the number of people, or was it just open at that particular time?"

Wang Ye found it strange.

Why did it feel as if that ancient relic was targeting his parents specifically?

If it were a matter of timing, that would be too coincidental, wouldn't it, that just at that moment, his parents went in?

If it were because of the number of people, that would be even more coincidental.

Just the right number of people?

Not one more or one less?

That would be utter nonsense!

"Ancient relics are what you Earth Star people call ruins, but here in Spirit Star, we just call them relics. Don't get it wrong, and before you become strong enough, revealing that you are an Earth Star person carries great risk."

Wang Yifeng first corrected Wang Ye.

From here to Ice Sect was still a long way to go. Even using a magical treasure, it would take Wang Yifeng, with his level, about two to three hours.

Other people would take even longer.

For an ordinary cultivator, to travel from there to Ice Sect without ten days or half a month's time, they simply wouldn't arrive.

So, on the way, Wang Yifeng also had many key points to discuss with Wang Ye.

"I understand."

Wang Ye silently took note.

Although it seemed like just a detail, this detail could, at times, cost Wang Ye his life.

Sometimes, what's revealed are exactly these kinds of detail issues.

Wang Yifeng, upon seeing this, continued to speak to Wang Ye:

"Originally, that relic was open to all, and in the eyes of many, it was a land of opportunity and even attracted many clans to vie for it."

To this, Wang Ye didn't feel too surprised.

But now, in his heart, he grew even more puzzled.

How could such a land of opportunity directly end up benefiting his own parents?

Wang Yifeng, upon reaching this point, revealed a bitter smile on his face, glanced back at Wang Ye, and finally said to him:

"The words I'm about to say might not be too friendly towards your parents, but I'm speaking the truth, don't take it to heart."

"Go ahead," Wang Ye replied.

Although Wang Ye said this, his mind was brimming with curiosity.

What could it be?

Whenever his master spoke with him, their relationship had reached a point almost like that of father and son, under normal circumstances, he wouldn't have this conversation with him.

Wang Yifeng had specifically made this remark.

What was he about to say that could be so outrageous?

"The crux of the matter is, your parents, when it comes to comprehension in cultivation, are just too lacking in all aspects, no matter how the Afterimage tried to teach them, it couldn't improve their abilities by much."

"The Afterimage was also a stubborn one and, in the end, the Remnant Spirit shut itself off and sealed the relic, focusing solely on teaching your parents how to cultivate, determined to make them learn."

"..."

Wang Ye raised his head to the sky.

At that moment, Wang Ye suddenly felt his emotions grow complex.

He felt some admiration for his own parents.

He truly admired them!

To have driven a Remnant Spirit to shut itself off.

Just how formidable were his own parents?

Wang Ye even started to feel a bit sorry for the Afterimage.

Really pitiful.

Having already died and become a Remnant Spirit, even in death, it encountered such a vexing matter.

No wonder, his own master, before telling him this, had said so.

Wang Ye fell silent.

Wang Yifeng thought it was because the words he had spoken had angered Wang Ye, so he didn't say much else, only continued to pilot the magical treasure.

After a long while.

Wang Ye's voice, filled with utter seriousness, reached Wang Yifeng's ear:

"Master, do you think, could I truly be the biological child of my parents?"

"What?"

Wang Yifeng was taken aback by Wang Ye's question.

So Wang Ye had been silent all this time not because he was angry, but because he had been pondering this question?

"Why would you think that?"

Wang Ye, sounding somewhat muffled, responded:

"My talent is so good, in my opinion, my parents should both belong to the category of geniuses, but in the end, they turned out to be so..."

He couldn't speak ill of his own parents.

So Wang Ye frowned deeply, thinking of an appropriate word to use that wouldn't disparage his own parents.

After pondering for nearly a minute, Wang Ye finally continued to speak: "So one-sided in their skills! Why do I feel, based on the laws of inheritance, that something doesn't quite add up?"

"Is that so?"

Wang Yifeng also raised his head to the sky.

To be doubted by one's own son as being his biological parent because of learning abilities...

I don't remember hearing about such things before.
