"What you say makes sense. It's the n who change, while the won indeed remain unchanged." Zhong pondered for a mont and nodded.
"So, is this story finished?" Chen Guan asked.
"Almost done, just a little twist in the middle." Zhong continued, "The boy originally aspired to achieve success, never considering having children. But because he changed later, he wanted a child, and the girl beca pregnant for him."
"Unfortunately, after becoming pregnant, the girl realized she no longer loved the boy because he was no longer the heroic savior of the world."
"Wait a minute!" Chen Guan's pupils shook in shock, his mouth gaped open, and he looked at Zhong in disbelief as he asked, "You're not about to tell
that the Chief Judge's child is..."
"Exactly as you think." Zhong nodded, confirming Chen Guan's suspicion.
"Impossible... Absolutely impossible... How could such a person not know if the child is his? A simple DNA test or paternity test could easily reveal the truth, there's no way such a mistake could happen." Chen Guan firmly refused to believe such a thing.
"Indeed, it is hard to believe. An ordinary woman couldn't possibly pull off such a feat. But do you think a woman who has navigated between two such n effortlessly for hundreds of years, yet remains unforgettable, could be ordinary?" Zhong said.
Chen Guan was stunned, not saying a word.
"Personally giving the boy another wife, saring the boy's reputation by saying he couldn't father a child, fabricating stories of long-term neglect and emotional abuse, making the talented boy willingly marry her 800 years later—do you think an ordinary woman could achieve this?"
"Speaking of which, I really don't know who this lady is?" Chen Guan thought carefully and realized he had never heard of the Chief Judge's wife's na.
Among Ji Beizhu's three husbands, there doesn't seem to be such a person, right?
"You may not have heard of the na Feng Wuci, but the surna Feng should be familiar to you." Zhong said.
"The Feng Family of the Ten Great Families?" Chen Guan's heart skipped a beat.
"Ji, Feng, Xia, Shang, Jiang, Du, Gong, Qin, Chu, Zhang—among the Ten Great Families, the Feng Celestial King and the King of Du are the most mysterious. The King of Du follows a self-reliant path, while the Feng Family prohibits marrying outsiders. Although the Feng Family maintains connections with other families, they are not as close-knit as the others. Especially the Great Cave Heaven of the Feng Family, which does not allow anyone outside the family to enter for cultivation."
Zhong first explained so things about the Feng Family, then said, "Feng Wuci is the most beloved daughter of the Feng Celestial King. The girl's role was crucial to the achievents of those two boys."
"The most beloved daughter of the Feng Celestial King?" Chen Guan realized that this woman's background was no less significant than the Chief Judge and General Ji. They might even need to rely on her in so ways.
"The reason for telling you all this is to let you know that you're in a very dangerous situation right now." Zhong looked at Chen Guan and said, "If it were the forr talented boy who loved beauty over power, destroying the Celestial Court Army, cutting off the resources of the Celestial Pillar Grotto Heaven, and slaying many institutions of the Ancestral Court in the Blessed Land wouldn't be a problem. But now, this Chief Judge will absolutely not let you and Ji Nanhong go."
"He can't deal with you in the Grotto Heaven and Blessed Land, but as soon as you enter the Great Cave Heaven, you'll be walking into the jaws of a tiger." Zhong said.
"Fine, then I'll just avoid him and not go to the Great Cave Heaven related to the Celestial Court," Chen Guan said.
"If it were that simple, I wouldn't have co to find you." Zhong said, "That Chief Judge has a special ability. As long as he knows your na, and you are in the sa space, or rather the sa Secret Realm, he can transfer you to his side."
"Wherever you go in any Secret Realm, as long as he is aware, he can travel there and directly transfer you to his side. At that ti, escaping will be incredibly difficult."
Chen Guan realized the seriousness of the problem. He was far too ignorant of the Great Cave Heaven, which has abilities vastly different from the Blessed Land and Grotto Heaven.
If the Blessed Land is considered a martial arts Secret Realm, then the Grotto Heaven is a fantasy Secret Realm, while the Great Cave Heaven is like the Immortal Realm or God Realm, with all sorts of bizarre abilities that are impossible to defend against and can't be judged using common sense.
He had previously believed that as long as he entered the Great Cave Heaven and left human cities, hiding sowhere would make it difficult for those seeking revenge to find him.
Now it seed that simply hiding wouldn't work. He would need self-preservation capabilities in the Great Cave Heaven.
"So, I can only enter the Great Cave Heaven after that Chief Judge is dead, right?" Chen Guan asked.
"Indeed, you have to wait until soone dies, but it's not you who needs to die, it's Ji Beizhu." Zhong said, "His lifespan is running out, no more than three months at most, that will be the end of it."
"Since he sent
to tell you this, he's already devised a solution for you. Before his death, he will use the Secret Technique to temporarily store
within you, using my power to block his ability, which can temporarily protect you from being directly captured by him. I can also reside within you for a longer ti."
Zhong calmly said, "But it must be done before Ji Beizhu's life nears its end, no more than three months. Before that, he still needs to stay alive to take care of so matters."
Chen Guan gazed at Zhong in disbelief. He couldn't believe that such a good fortune could occur in the world.
It was like walking on a crowded street, and suddenly a lottery ticket blew down the street. Despite many people, no one picked it up.
Chen Guan happened to see this ticket, and just on a whim, he picked it up, only to find it was an unexpired jackpot ticket.
This kind of fortune was sothing Chen Guan couldn't comprehend. How could it fall upon him? He couldn't help but think to himself, "Could it be that Ji Beizhu has a thod to extend his lifespan, and plans to use
as a power source?"
Zhong seed to see through Chen Guan's mind and said with a smile, "You're a cautious person, which makes Ji Beizhu more at ease entrusting Nanhong to you."
"Would he do so much for an adopted daughter?" Chen Guan still didn't believe it.
"Who said Nanhong is adopted?" Zhong's words stunned Chen Guan.
"Isn't she?" According to Ji Nanhong, and what she heard from Qi Zhi'an.
But if Qi Zhi'an fabricated this, how could Ji Beizhu allow Ji Nanhong to suffer such humiliation without saying anything?
"Of course not." Zhong replied calmly, "I can confidently tell you, Ji Nanhong is definitely Ji Beizhu's biological daughter, the daughter he finally managed to have after Feng Wuci left him."
