Chapter 32 The Villain's Tragic Childhood
…
[Lan Yue: Wait, the main villain? I suddenly remembered that there was indeed such a main villain in the original work. It seems that his mother also died tragically and he was abused by having his blood drawn during his childhood.]
I think I remember now, that villain's name is Fang Shuo! Fang Shuo, Yuan Shuo? So that's how it is, so that missing disciple was Yuan Xia's real child, who just escaped at some point and accidentally ended up in the Southern Spirit Sect.
Yuanbao sensed something was wrong and tried every means to take action against Yuanshuo, and finally succeeded!
On a dark and stormy night, the disciples of the Weapon Forging Hall went mining together, and the result was...
Lan Yue stopped just like that, and both the people from the Four Arts Hall and the elders in the sky were extremely anxious.
Why did you suddenly stop talking?
Especially the Spirit Weapon Hall Master, Yuan Su, was as if struck by lightning.
Was the missing disciple Yuan Shuo actually his nephew?
So just now, he not only wanted to protect that ghost, but he even thought that Yuan Shuo should just die completely?
This blow caused Element to cough up blood again.
However, this time when he vomited blood, everyone else was already used to it, and some elders even calmly drank spiritual tea.
Fang Ding couldn't stand it anymore and stuffed a life-saving pill into his mouth.
"You haven't even found your real nephew yet. Don't get so angry that you die here first. Who will avenge your nephew then? Who will avenge your sister?"
His words completely awakened Yuan Su. Just moments ago, the Spirit Weapon Hall Master, who had been standing there pale-faced and swaying as if a gust of wind could blow him away, suddenly stood up straight.
Yes, he still needs to avenge his sister, and he also needs to find out where Yuan Shuo is.
Maybe Yuan Shuo was just hidden away by that guy. After all, if Yuan Bao wants to maintain his bloodline, he needs to have blood drawn continuously.
Yuan Shuo, Yuan Shuo, why didn't he think of that before?
Yuansu still remembered the first time he met his nephew. It was the boy's first time visiting the Spirit Hall, and he was very fond of the spiritual energy there.
However, due to the suppression and abuse she suffered from a young age, even though she liked those things, she appeared very timid and even lifeless.
At first glance, he didn't really like the child, feeling that the child exuded a deathly aura.
Looking back on those scenes now, Yuansu feels extremely embarrassed whenever he thinks about the displeasure he showed at those times.
[Lan Yue: As a result, Yuan Shuo was called aside and lured into a series of pre-set formations. He was bound with Yuan Bao, first tortured, and then most of his blood was drained...]
Seeing this, Lan Yue herself couldn't help but want to know what happened next, but she still insisted on reading on.
The head of the Spirit Artifact Hall clenched his fists tightly, as if he had stopped breathing, and everyone else looked away.
"They will definitely not harm Yuan Shuo's life in order to continue drawing blood. When you find him, you must make it up to him properly," Fang Ding sighed.
No one wanted Yuanxia, that lively and lovely little girl, for her child to end up like this.
Fate is cruel!
"Xiaxia, she went to the newly discovered ruins at that crucial moment to find a healing elixir for me."
"If it weren't for me, he wouldn't have encountered any of this, and her child would be safe and sound."
The element was already in tears.
He's the one who wronged his sister! And because of his stupidity, he never knew who his real nephew was.
Thank goodness Lan Yue reminded him! Otherwise, what good would it have done if he had found out later?
Actually, it's already very late.
"It's just losing that blood. As long as I have the elixir, I can save him and bring him back to the path of cultivation." Yuan Su clenched his fist and made up his mind. He was determined to do his best to make it up to this child and let him feel warmth again.
[Lan Yue: Holy crap, how can those people be so perverted? It's one thing to draw so much blood and torture him, but they even destroyed all of Yuan Shuo's meridians!]
In the Hall of Four Arts, Yun Chong could no longer bear to listen. He stood up and was about to knock out the element that was going crazy again.
Suddenly, another sound followed, which drew everyone's attention.
[System: Those people are indeed despicable, but Yuan Shuo is not beyond saving.]
[Lan Yue: Where is Yuan Shuo now? How can we save him?]
After asking the question, Lan Yue slapped her forehead. Even if she knew it herself, it wouldn't matter. The head of the Spirit Hall, or even the sect leader, would have to know.
Perhaps she could also use divination to lie and claim that she had divined the image?
Above, the element that had been furious had also become much more sober.
There's hope! My little nephew can actually be saved!
The head of the Spirit Weapon Hall quickly swallowed the blood in his mouth and looked down at the scene with a tense expression.
Everyone else was also very curious about this rare celestial artifact. Whether they were eating spirit fruits or drinking tea, they all stopped what they were doing.
[System: You've already read the original novel, how could you forget? Yuan Shuo possesses an extremely rare ghost spirit body. This kind of constitution usually appears in ghost cultivators; it's very rare for it to appear in a human.]
[System: With this kind of physique, if one truly wants to achieve something, one must break through and rebuild.]
[Lan Yue: To break through and then establish oneself again—how does one achieve this? Is it some kind of sudden enlightenment?]
[System: You can interpret this as an epiphany, but what he needs isn't an epiphany, but a profound enlightenment, a rebirth from the brink of death. This is a very crucial juncture; if he can overcome it, he can completely abandon his physical body and cultivate using his ghostly spirit form.]
[Lan Yue: What if one cannot achieve complete enlightenment?]
[System: Then you'll have no choice but to become a demon and head to the Demon Realm.]
[Lan Yue: I see. No wonder when I thought of Fang Shuo, I thought of the major villain from the Demon Realm. It turns out he had already fallen into demonic possession in the original story.]
[Lan Yue: Where is he now? Tell me quickly! The cultivation world is already tough enough; we can't afford another major villain! Even lying down would be exhausting!]
The system silently presented her with a map, and even included a picture.
[System: The most dangerous place is the safest place. He is currently in the Spirit Artifact Hall.]
[Lan Yue: I'll study divination techniques right away and use them to reveal this scene!]
[System: Don't waste time. By the time you use divination to condense the image, how long will that take? Just let Yin Xue break through. This ancient sword can break through all restrictions; no formation can stop him.]
[Lan Yue: Wouldn't that expose me? Then both of us would be in mortal danger!]
[System: That was something Yin Xue did, not something you did. What does it have to do with you?]
So that's how it can be done!
In that instant, Lan Yue understood.
"Yinxue, this time it all depends on your performance. Just rush in, throw a tantrum, do whatever you want! I'll take care of everything!"
Yin Xue: "..."
[Don't think I can't hear you two talking!]
[However, since I'm the only one who can help now, I'll reluctantly lend a hand this time!]
As soon as Yin Xue finished speaking, she transformed into a streak of silvery-white light and rushed over in a flash.
