Chapter 1890: “The Twelve Palaces’ Summit (4)”
In regards to that matter, Gu Yi had never told anyone about it.
Betrayed by the person he loved, thinking that he had won the hand of the fair lady, never ever thought that he would turn to beco such a joke.
Calculating based on the ti that Gu Ying had been born, it was deed that before the young princess of the Nine Temples married Gu Yi, she was already pregnant. Gu Yi had already beco the Blood Fiend Palace Lord at that ti and the humiliation caused a drastic change to his personality, but with the Nine Temples behind their little princess, he was unable to avenge the humiliation but acknowledge Gu Ying as a son, and cover up the entire matter.
“He is not of my blood but I have still brought him up for so many years and had people to guide him in his cultivation, I have already shown more than enough benevolence to his parents. With such big trouble he had gotten himself into this ti, am I then expected to still protect him and put the entire Blood Fiend Palace into danger?” Gu Yi had spoken of all these because he did not want his own daughter to hold it against him.
Towards Gu Ying, there was only hatred, but with Gu Xin Yan, he was a real father, one who doted on and loved his own child.
Gu Xin Yan stood frozen in shock in her spot, unable to recover for a long ti.
She was suddenly recalling back to the tis when she was very young, when she was forced to draw lines with Gu Ying, seeing Gu Ying being dragged away by the Elders while she cried in her father’s arms.
Maybe, at that mont, she should already have guessed it.
They were both Gu Yi’s children, but the difference in treatnt she and Gu Ying received was like Heaven and Earth.
Though the position of the Palace Lord among the Twelve Palaces was passed down through one’s blood lineage, it prioritized sons and disregarded daughters. But over the years, Gu Yi had been acting like he had completely forgotten all about Gu Ying, devoting all his ti to grooming Gu Xin Yan into the next successor of the Blood Fiend Palace.
“Little Yin, you can just keep this matter to yourself. I know that you have a kind and soft heart, but Gu Ying is not your real brother, and you do not need to worry about him.” Gu Yi said in reassurance to Gu Xin Yan.
But Gu Xin Yan was stunned into speechlessness by the revelation of that truth.
Engaged in long conversation with their knees together in the room, the father and daughter pair had not noticed that outside the tightly shut door, Gu Ying was quietly standing in the corridor, separated only by a wall where every word spoken inside fell into his ears.
Upon that handso face, was tinted faintly with a sneer.
“That’s really heartless.....” Gu Ying whispered with a soft laugh to himself. Towards all this, he seed to have known it all along.
A black shadow silently appeared at Gu Ying’s side.
“Young Lord, quell your rage. You only need to bear with it for just a while more. If the Young Lord does not want to remain in the Blood Fiend Palace anymore, the Temple Lord has already given orders that the Young Lord can go back there anyti.” The dark robed man said softly by Gu Ying’s ear.
However, Gu Ying shook his head, his eyes narrowed with smiles as he stared at the tightly shut door.
“Should I be feeling rage? It is not a matter of a day or two that Gu Yi has treated like this. In his eyes, I might even be less than a dog he keeps at his side. If not for the fact that I hold good enough talents and am able to help him with so things, he might have already have had drowned in an icy lake.”
“Young Lord has suffered.” The dark robed man quickly said.
Gu Ying that said with a smile: “You help tell my maternal Grandfather that I will not be going back yet. Rather strange rumblings are brewing in the Twelve Palaces recently and I am feeling that there is soone secretly manipulating strings behind it. During this Twelve Palaces’ Summit, barring any accidents, there would surely be a good show to watch.”
“And what are the Young Lord’s intentions?’
Gu Ying said: “This place will turn into purgatory hell soon. Have the n watch things closely.”
“Then do we need to make a move at that ti?”
“No need. You just need to enjoy the show.” Gu Ying then paused, his eyes darkening slightly as he stared at that shut door before him, his ears resonating with that impactful debate.
