Gaya’s real father

"How?" Gaya almost immediately asked Ashton Kane.

"Before I answer that, I need to know how you regained your ability to cultivate again. When I went to Nagaland, they said Xanali broke your meridians,"

"Ghost cured me," answered Gaya. 

"So he knows the real you?"

Gaya nodded.

"Don't only be a couple. Be best friends. That's what makes your life worth living," said Ashton. Gaya noticed a tinge of sadness in his eyes.

"Is that what you and my mother are? Best friends?"

Ashton Kane sighed. 

"We grew up together. Can you believe it?" Ashton Kane let out a miserable chuckle. Gaya's eyes went wide in shock. Her mother was not only a Naga but also a royal. She wondered how a human-like Ashton Kane ended up growing up together with her mother. According to her memories, her mother always talked down on humans to the point Gaya thought she hated them.
