Although Shi Jiujian always told Shi Sheng that his parents had passed away, Shi Sheng never believed it, just regarded it as Shi Jiujian's excuse to circumvent him. Now Shi Sheng finally confirmed the news of his mother's death from his grandmother. The hope that had always existed in his heart was ruthlessly shattered. Shi Sheng felt extremely sad and sat silently on the chair, sad.
Guo Yanxi comforted him: "Son, people cannot be resurrected when they die. You must be mournful and follow the changes, at least your father is still alive."
Shi Sheng raised his head and said, "Where is my father?" Guo Yanxi said, "I don't know, Xun'er has been here three times in total. The first time was to send four swords, the second time was to bring your mother to see me, my mother-in-law, and the third time he left a letter and asked me to pass it to you."
Shi Sheng said, "What kind of letter is it?" Guo Yanxi said, "I have kept this letter for decades, and I can finally hand it over to you today." After that, he took out a wooden box from the boundary stone and handed it to Shi Sheng, and said, "It's right here, open it and take a look."
Shi Sheng reached out to take it, looked at the wooden box silently, and after a while, he opened it, took out the letter paper inside, and looked open, but saw that it read:
"Sheng'er, when you see this letter, it means that you have grown up, I am very relieved and guilty.
Forgive me for not being a responsible father, I can’t be by your side. When you watch you grow up, you can blame me, but you can’t blame your mother.
Your mother, she is the most selfless mother in the world. She loves you more than her life. No one can compare to you. Her efforts to you are better than everything. You must respect her from the bottom of your heart, love her, and miss her.
Sheng'er, you have inherited the blood of your parents and are destined to not live an ordinary life. Your life may be extremely bumpy, but no matter what, you must not give up and move forward straight.
You must want to know where your father is. I can tell you that I am in the snowy land of Tianshan Mountain, remember the words of your father. Before you survive the death disaster, don’t come to Tianshan to find me, otherwise you and I will die, and even hundreds of millions of people will lose their lives.
Ten years, twenty years, or thirty years, I don’t know how long I can last here. Sheng'er. You have to survive the death disaster soon. I don’t have much time left for you.
There is a person. You can trust him. His name is Xiao Junlin. He will probably be a palace lord of the twelve palaces of the Emperor. He will take you to the overseas fairy mountains, where you will know everything.
Sheng'er, I'm not a good father, but I still want to tell you that like all fathers, I love you deeply, my son."
In the short letter, Shi Sheng's eyes were slightly red. He could feel the deep fatherly love conveyed in his handwriting. Shi Xun was not with him, but the fatherly love he gave him was not less than that of any father. Whether it was the Five-Meridian Divination Art, Long Yu, or "Dao Dian", everything Shi Xun prepared for him, I don't know how much effort it took, all of this was fatherly love!
Shi Xun had high expectations for Shi Sheng and even hoped that he could survive the death disaster. This was something Shi Sheng dared not think about before, but now, Shi Sheng no longer thought about it. He had no choice and no way out. He had to survive the death disaster! He wanted to see his father! I really wanted to!
Shi Sheng put the letter into the wooden box, looked at the wooden box deeply, then put the wooden box into the boundary stone, looked up at Guo Yanxi, and said, "Grandma, do you know who Xiao Junlin is?"
Guo Yanxi shook his head slightly and said, "Have you ever heard of it, is it from the Xiao family of the Great Chu?" Shi Sheng shook his head and said, "I don't know, my father asked me to find this person, and he also said that he might be a palace lord of the 12th Palace of the Emperor."
Guo Yanxi was surprised and said, "The palace lords of the twelve palaces of the Emperor's twelve palaces? They are all top figures." Shi Sheng nodded and said, "Grandma, do you know how to contact the twelve palaces of the Emperor's twelve palaces?"
Guo Yanxi said, "Child, do you have to go find them?" Shi Sheng nodded with certainty and said, "I must find Xiao Junlin!"
Guo Yanxi sighed and said, "Your temperament is exactly the same as your grandfather. Once you make a decision, no matter who advises you, you can't change it. I will tell you that you are said to contact the twelve palaces of the Emperor and you can only go to the Emperor's Martial City."
Shi Sheng said, "Where is the Emperor's Martial City?" Guo Yanxi said, "On the coast of the northwest, I will send someone to give you a map later, you will know at a glance." Shi Sheng said, "Thank you grandma!"
Guo Yanxi touched Shi Sheng's head kindly and smiled and said, "Silly child, why are you polite to grandma?"
Shi Sheng smiled and said, "Grandma, today I saw Gai Jianxiong from Shatuo Palace coming to our Shimen to play wild. Why did he say that he would stay in our Shimen for a long time in the future? What's going on?"
Guo Yanxi sighed and said, "It's a long story, Sheng'er, you have to know that our Shimen can have today's status dependent on the cultivation resources left by your grandfather and your father, and some treasures for the enemy. Decades have passed, and the cultivation resources are almost exhausted, and there are not many treasures for the enemy. To be honest, our Shimen lacks masters to take charge, and the younger generations trained are inferior to the previous generation. Xueer, Mingyu and Xian'er are all among the younger generations of our Shimen, but they are far behind the rising stars of other major forces."
Guo Yanxi paused and sighed, "To be honest, with the strength of our Shimen, we are indeed not worthy of being at the head of the Blood Sand City. The Shatuo Sect of the Gai family is much better than us. If they hadn't been afraid of the treasures of our Shimen, they would have called us long ago."
Shi Sheng said: "The so-called dragon head is just a false reputation, so it's okay to give it to them Shatuo Palace." Guo Yanxi said: "Son, it's not unreasonable for you to say this, but Shatuo Palace is not interested in the false reputation of the dragon head, nor is it eyeing our Shi family's ancestral home, but it's eyeing the priceless blood sand mine!"
Shi Sheng frowned and said, "How much do they want to share?" Guo Yanxi said, "Sun son, you are too naive. They don't want to share as much, but want to swallow all the portion of our Shi family!"
Shi Sheng snorted coldly and said, "Swallow them all? You are not afraid of suffocating them to death!" Guo Yanxi said, "The snake swallows the elephant in a bad mood. Shatuo Palace hopes to take the entire blood sand mine for himself."
After saying this, Shi Sheng felt relieved and said, "Shatuo Palace wants to embezzle my share of Shimen, but he is afraid that he will fight with us and both sides will be defeated. He will be taken advantage of by others, so he proposed a battle, right?"
Guo Yanxi said, "Yes, the bet is half of each share." Shi Sheng was stunned and said, "Isn't it all?" Guo Yanxi said, "This is a delaying strategy. There will be a second time in this battle. They want to gradually embezzle our share." (To be continued...)
