Chapter 44: About the Past

After Nian Zhen revealed that he knew about her past, Bibi Dong's face flashed with an extremely chilling cold. She looked at Nian Zhen with blank eyes. Her mind had become empty.

"H-How did y-you know?" A trembling voice came out of Bibi Dong's mouth. Her whole body was shivering from the news. Countless fragments of memories flashed in her mind. The sad and bitter past stinged her heart with immense pain.

Standing up weakly, Nian Zhen, now taller than Bibi Dong, slowly took her in a gentle embrace and patted her head.

"I saw it. My eyes have the power to see someone's memories without them noticing." Nian Zhen said in a gentle tone. Though what he was saying was just rubbish. To be able to see someone's memory, he would need to make direct eye contact with that person.

Embraced in the warm and gentle arms, Bibi Dong's shaking gradually stopped as she buried her head on Nian Zhen's chest, listening to his heartbeat. (AN: Suck my D Xiaogang!!)

"I don't know how I will tell her that I am a spirit beat…" Nian Zhen thought bitterly.

"Renxue...come in." Bibi Dong said faintly, freeing herself from Nian Zhen's embrace.

Outside Qian Renxue had a shocked expression on her face. She had never heard her mother speak so gently to her.

Exhaling deeply, Qian Renxue came inside the room as she lifted her transformation. Nian Zhen, seeing two beauties with him alone could not help but sigh in bliss.

"Am I in heaven.." Nian Zhen said, loud enough for both the mother and daughter to hear. Qian Renxue, having failed to understand Nian Zhen's shameless remark, tilted her head in confusion. Whereas Bibi Dong's face became slightly red but that disappeared in a flash.

"L-Linghun how are you?" Qian Renxue asked with a hint of worry on her eyes. She was slightly shocked when she saw Nian Zhen's eyes but the worry in her heart completely made that surprise disappear.

"Yah, I am fine. Now.." Nian Zhen said with a serious look on his face as he nodded at Qian Renxue. Slightly clenching her fists, Qian Renxue looked at Bibi Dong.

(AN: This thing cannot go without slight drama so bear with me, plss)

"Uh..Linghun told me that...that something happened between you and my f-father?" Qian Renxue said resolutely, looking straight into Bibi Dong's eyes.

Taken aback by Qian Renxue's eyes, it took a long time before Bibi Dong could calm herself down.

"Sigh..I did not want to tell you this at all...but." After hesitating for a while, a sharp light flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes.

"You already know this but I am a holder of twin spirits. At a young age I was already a strong spirit master. Due to this I had become the disciple of the previous Supreme Pontiff, Your father." Bibi Dong said with a hint of hatred in her eyes.

"At that time I did not know anything that was gonna happen to me. I was foolish, pure and inexperienced about this world ruthlessness. I was blinded by the fact that I was a genius. As time went on, I-I eventually met my f-first love, Tang San's master, Yu Xiaogang." Bibi Dong said, trying to hide her embarrassment as she was telling her daughter about her love life.

Behind her, Nian Zhen was trying his best not to smile looking at the flustered Bibi Dong.

"But, my 'teacher', forced me to forget Xiaogang as he was from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. I did not accept it at first but...but that bastard forced me to make him leave as he tried to harm Xiaogang's life. At that time, I was also crowned as the next Supreme Pontiff after Qian Xunji retired. I could not stay with him." Bibi Dong said, with anger and sadness in her tone, eyes and face.

"Then, as Xiaogang departed, hell arrived. Your father...that bastard assault….assaulted me and f-forcibly impregnated me...And you were conceived....Your father died soon after that. I did not have anyone else to whom I could direct my hatred for him to...So...So, I pushed it all to you. I know, t-that was selfish of me but because of 'Him' I-I lost everything dear to me." Bibi Dong said everything, even things that were not told in the novel which were new to Nian Zhen. As she trembled, a murderous intent flashed in her eyes mixed with tears.

Seeing that Bibi Dong was close to losing her composure, Nian Zhen quickly stood up and embraced her, gently stroking her back. Qian Renxue was devastated by this news. Her grandfather had refrained from telling her anything regarding such an incident. Unable to digest all of this, Qian Renxue was about to fall down.

"Ohh Come on!!" Nian Zhen shouted inwardly as he rushed forward with Bibi Dong in his arms and embraced Qian Renxue to balance her.

Bibi Dong, unable to get rid of her emotions, could not help but cry as she buried her head in Nian Zhen's chest. After so long, she was able to feel such a warmth other than Xiaogang, so she let out all of her grievances and collapsed in Nian Zhen's arms with tears flowing down her eyes.

Qian Renxue herself was not that good either. She, having known about her mothers past and having gotten her answers, was also crying, the same way as her mother as she collapsed in Nian Zhen's arms.

"They really are like each other." Nian Zhen thought with a bitter smile on his face. Caring the two unconscious beauties simultaneously, Nian Zhen slowly laid them down on the bed, side by side.

"Let them rest." Nian Zhen said, as he slowly wiped away the tears from the cheeks of the mother and daughter. After that, Nian Zhen suddenly felt as if he was wet. Looking at his clothes, Nian Zhen saw that the white cloth, which must have been replaced after his black robe got damaged, was wet from the tears and saliva from the two beauties.

"They cried their eyes out huh.." Nian Zhen said bitterly, scratching his head. Taking out a set of clothes from his inventory and replacing the current clothes with them.

Wearing a fresh and dry dress, Nian Zhen looked at the two mother and daughter sleeping peacefully.

"It seems opening up about her grievances made her stress become relieved a lot." Nian Zhen thought with a smile, as he looked at Bibi Dong who was sleeping with a peaceful expression on her face.

"The same goes for Renxue, having learned why her mother hated her must have relieved most of her worries." Nian Zhen added, looking at Qian Renxue.

[Now what? Coax them to be your woman?]

"Shut up...Lets meet the old men. They must be waiting for me." Nian Zhen said, with a creepy smile on his face as an old man's name came in his mind.

(AN: As of now...the identity of Hei Linghun is over. Meaning that Nian Zhen has only three identities. Hongchen, Nian Zhen and Ying Yun.)
