The sound of the cell door being smashed open instantly woke up the two people inside.
The haggard-looking Ye Xingzhi frowned instantly, and a look of vigilance instantly appeared in his eyes.
But when he saw the young man in front of him, he was stunned.
Because he vaguely saw a bit of himself in this young man's body when he was young!
Liu Hansu, who was sitting next to him, was also stunned.
For some reason, she felt a hint of connection with the young man in front of her.
This kind of connection feels illusory, but it seems to be real.
"...Who are you? How did you get here?"
Ye Xingzhi was the first to react.
He glanced at the old man in purple robes outside the cell, and found that he suddenly didn't notice at all, and a look of shock could not help but appear in his eyes.
Being able to make a fifth-level overlord not notice at all shows that this young man is quite extraordinary!
He turned back to look at the other person again, but suddenly found that the expression on the other person's face was filled with an expression that seemed to be both sadness and relief.
Ye Qingchen also found that he had lost his composure.
He smiled apologetically at them and answered Ye Xingzhi's question:
"My name is Ye Qingchen, and I came here secretly. Don't worry, he won't be able to find me."
Ye Qingchen not only used [Simulated Fog] to transform the cell into the same scene as before, but also simulated the breaths of Ye Xingzhi and Liu Hansu.
In this way, the purple-robed old man absolutely couldn't detect anything unusual!
"...a very strong means."
Ye Xingzhi looked surprised and finally praised him.
Randomly, he looked puzzled again and said: "But this little brother...it seems we have never met, right?"
According to his memory, he should have never met Ye Qingchen.
As for his surname, Ye... Although they were the only Ye family in Wuhuang Kingdom, he also knew that they were definitely not the only family with the surname Ye on the entire Mowu Road.
But where does such a strong sense of familiarity come from?
He turned to look at Liu Hansu and found that she was staring at Ye Qingchen's face in ecstasy.
Obviously, she also felt a strong sense of familiarity from Ye Qingchen.
Ye Qingchen felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Liu Hansu and did not dare to look directly into Liu Hansu's eyes.
He swallowed and forced himself to calm down.
He nodded and said, "Well, we have indeed never met before."
"Then why..."
"I heard that the Ye family in Wuhuang Kingdom was in great trouble, so I thought I could come over and see if I could help someone with the same surname."
Ye Qingchen's poor excuse made Ye Xingzhi open his mouth, but hesitated to speak.
He thought for a moment and was about to speak, but Ye Qingchen spoke first.
"By the way, Master Ye, I have a question to ask you..."
Ye Qingchen's face turned serious: "This will affect the future of your Ye family. I hope you can answer truthfully!"
Is it related to the future of the Ye family?
Ye Xingzhi and Liu Hansu were both a little confused.
The future of the Ye family...could it be possible to change the status quo?
After pondering for a moment, Ye Xingzhi said solemnly: "Okay, you can ask. As long as it can change the current situation of my Ye family, you can ask whatever you want!"
Although it is very unrealistic to place any hope on answering a few questions, Ye Xingzhi can only do this for now.
"First... may I ask you two... have you ever given birth to a child?"
After asking this question, a nervous look suddenly appeared on Ye Qingchen's face, and he stared closely at the changes on their faces.
When he asked this question, both Ye Xingzhi and Liu Hansu were startled.
Ye Xingzhi was stunned for a long time, and suddenly a look of sadness appeared on his face, and he said softly:
"Yes... Hansu and I gave birth to a child."
Liu Hansu on the side also thought of his child who was living outside, and felt sad for a moment. He couldn't help hugging Ye Xingzhi and sobbed softly on his shoulder.
Ye Xingzhi also hugged him gently, exuding an aura of sadness.
Abandoning that child back then was really what they had to do.
After so many years, they shed tears countless times, missing that child.
How many times have I wanted to commit suicide, but because my children are still in this world, I have chosen to live on.
Their biggest guilt in this life, apart from being unable to revitalize the Ye family, is that they were unable to personally accompany the child as parents.
They didn't know whether he had been picked up by someone or whether he was living well in someone else's home...
They didn't know whether the child was so alone in the wilderness and might starve to death...
But they really have no choice.
If they could, at that time, they would choose one person to self-destruct and sacrifice in exchange for the other person to escape with their children.
But if that were the case, they would never be able to do it.
Because they don't want each other to leave this world one step ahead of themselves.
"That child... was left in a deserted place by me... there was a small country nearby. I don't know if he was picked up by anyone in that small country..."
Ye Xingzhi murmured: "If not... I guess..."
He opened his mouth, but he really couldn't tell the possibility that frightened him.
He shook his head and continued to murmur: "Eighteen years have passed in a flash...he is now eighteen years old...and Hansu and I have not been able to be by his side these years..."
"We are such unfit parents!"
Ye Xingzhi suddenly roared hoarsely, and two lines of clear tears finally fell from his face.
Seeing Ye Xingzhi like this, Ye Qingchen suddenly felt like a lump in his throat.
After a moment of silence, he endured the shock in his heart and asked aloud:
"Then...why did you abandon him?"
Ye Xingzhi fell silent.
Obviously, this question touched the most painful part of his heart.
For him, as a father, he can only save his child's life by abandoning him. This is the most incompetent manifestation of a father!
Liu Hansu raised her head, with tears still on her face.
She replied softly:
"At that time... we were being chased and we all suffered many serious injuries. If we continue to escape with our children, it is very likely that all three of us... will fall into the hands of the other party!"
"Therefore, he and I decided to hide him in an inaccessible place, leaving him with a protective barrier and a breath-concealing barrier for a month."
"Those two layers of barriers are specifically aimed at the monsters there. The monsters there cannot detect that barrier."
"As long as someone discovers our child and wants to take him away, the barrier will automatically break down."
At this point, Liu Hansu's voice became trembling again: "I just hope that he can meet a good family..."
They regret it now.
I regret my original decision.
Seeing them like this, Ye Qingchen's heart couldn't help but ache. The stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
He could see that Ye Xingzhi and Liu Hansu really cared about the safety of their children.
If the situation hadn't been critical at the time, they would never have made this choice.
After being silent for a while, Ye Xingzhi adjusted his mood and forced an apologetic smile towards Ye Qingchen.
"I'm sorry...we lost our composure."
He breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "I would like to ask, little brother, do these questions... have anything to do with the future of our Ye family?"
He didn't understand Ye Qingchen's intention in asking these questions.
Hearing this, Ye Qingchen came back to his senses and took a deep breath.
Suddenly, he knelt on his knees in front of Ye Xingzhi and Liu Hansu!
"!!"
Ye Xingzhi and Liu Hansu were shocked by his move.
"Little brother, what are you doing! Get up!"
Ye Xingzhi quickly stood up and was about to help Ye Qingchen, but Ye Qingchen stretched out his hand to stop him.
"You guys sit down first, okay?"
Ye Qingchen said softly: "Soon, everything you want to know will be known."
As soon as he finished speaking, he had a thought in his mind, and a sword-shaped jade stone suddenly appeared in his right hand. He stretched out his hand and showed it in front of Ye Xingzhi and his wife.
"Excuse me...do you still recognize this?"
"!!!"
When Kendama just appeared in front of them, Ye Xingzhi and Liu Hansu's expressions suddenly changed!
Ye Xingzhi stood up from where he had just sat down and said in shock:
"Heritage Kendama!! How come it is in your hand?! It was not placed by us..."
As soon as he said this, he suddenly felt like a fish bone was stuck in his throat, and he could no longer say the next sentence.
He stared blankly at Ye Qingchen's face, his face full of disbelief!
At that moment, he thought of a possibility!
"My child!! You are my child!!"
But Liu Hansu suddenly screamed and threw herself on Ye Qingchen!
She hugged Ye Qingchen tightly, tears rolling down her face uncontrollably.
When they were being hunted, they placed the inherited kendama in their arms in their children's swaddling clothes.
They originally thought that they would probably never see their children and inherited kendama again in this life.
Unexpectedly, God actually allowed the inherited kendama... to appear in their hands again!
They even brought their children back!
"You...are you really my child?"
The huge surprise hit Ye Xingzhi's mind, making him feel dizzy for a while.
"If you don't believe it, we can shed blood to recognize your kin."
Ye Qingchen said with a smile, took out a bowl of water, his true energy burst through his fingers, and a drop of blood dripped out of it.
This time, Liu Hansu suddenly felt distressed.
Ye Xingzhi also swallowed hard, used the little remaining Qi to break through his fingers, and dropped a drop of blood inside.
Then, under the gaze of the three people, the two drops of blood slowly merged together!
"You, you are really... my child!"
Ye Xingzhi lost control of his face and his whole body was trembling.
Seeing the result he most wanted to see appear, Ye Qingchen's eyes turned red, and he gently helped Liu Hansu in front of him, and then suddenly kowtowed heavily to them!
"My child is unfilial! I have never been with my parents for eighteen years!"
"Now that the baby is late, please forgive me, parents!"
