At this mont, Ye Xunhuan's face was filled with tension and anticipation.
Father, such a distant and unfamiliar term, but now Ye Xunhuan has finally discovered that soone knows who his father is. How could he not have any reaction?
Seeing Ye Xunhuan's expectant yet tense expression, the man slowly moved his gaze away from Ye Xunhuan and said slowly, "Sorry, I can't tell you!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, Ye Xunhuan's fist imdiately clenched tightly, and his expression beca sowhat unsightly. "Why?"
At this mont, Ye Xunhuan's voice sounded very deep and hoarse!
"There's no such thing as so many 'whys' in this world!" the man said lightly, "I can't tell you, simply can't, no reason why!"
"You..."
"If you want to know everything, just defeat , or defeat the person you t before at your mother's tomb!" the man said indifferently, "Otherwise, you'll never know!"
"Just you wait, I will defeat you sooner or later!" Ye Xunhuan said through gritted teeth.
He didn't press the man any further because he knew that no matter how he pressed, it wouldn't have any result. The other party didn't want to speak, and regardless of how he asked, they wouldn't say anything.
Moreover, Ye Xunhuan wasn't a match for the man, and forcing him to speak would only bring humiliation upon himself!
The man turned his head to glance at Ye Xunhuan. Upon seeing Ye Xunhuan's angry face and the look of resilience in his eyes, a faint smile slowly erged underneath the man's mask. "Talk is cheap. Once you can defeat , say that again!"
"I might not ask about my father, but my mother..."
"Depends on whether I feel like telling!" the man interrupted Ye Xunhuan's words directly!
"You..."
"It's you who need sothing from , not from you. You also need to understand one thing," the man interrupted Ye Xunhuan again, "If not for today, not only would you lose the Taiji Seal, but the won around you would also face disaster one by one!"
"I am your savior. Although I have received beneficence from your parents, I am also your lifesaver. Is this the attitude you have towards your lifesaver?"
The man was right; he was Ye Xunhuan's life savior. Without him, Ye Xunhuan would have been dead long ago.
Ye Xunhuan then took a deep breath, slowly suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, and said, "Thank you for saving my life!"
"Just fulfilling the trust put in , no need to thank !"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xunhuan really wanted to give the guy in front of him two swords. How could there be soone more of a scoundrel than himself in this world?
Ye Xunhuan chose not to bother with this man, and once again, he spoke up, "What kind of person was my mother really? Was she killed by the king?"
"Your mother was a good person, no doubt about it," the man said flatly, "As for whether your mother was killed by the king, that doesn't seem very important to you!"
Ye Xunhuan opened his mouth, just about to say sothing, but before he could, the other's voice ca again, "You can't kill the king, can you?"
"Moreover, even if I say she wasn't, you'd definitely ask all sorts of questions, which is quite boring!"
Ye Xunhuan fell silent. The man was right, even if Qin Fenghuang was killed by the king, what could he do about it?
After all, as things stood, Ye Xunhuan couldn't defeat the king, wasn't a match for him.
"But one day, I will be able to defeat him!"
"When that day cos, you'll know!" the man casually replied.
Ye Xunhuan, upon hearing this, was so angry that he wished he could strangle the man in front of him.
This guy had no intention of telling him anything; everything was just to toy with Ye Xunhuan!
"When that day cos, I hope you'll speak to as you've just said, and tell everything!"
"Say it again when that day cos," the man said with a slight disdain towards Ye Xunhuan, "But before then, I advise you to keep a low profile. Don't go head-to-head with the king for nothing, and don't think that besides the king, you can bully anyone else among the Guardians!"
"If you truly think that way, you will definitely suffer a major setback. Even if I intervene, I might not be able to save you!" the man's voice beca extrely serious, "Learn to keep a low profile when needed!"
"See the king? When he needs to bow his head, he bows without hesitation!"
The man's words seed very unremarkable, yet when they fell into Ye Xunhuan's ears, they carried countless implications!
Could it be that there are existences within the Guardians comparable to the king?
For a while, Ye Xunhuan's heart started to race.
"You are quite knowledgeable about the Guardians?"
"Just so-so," the man said lightly, "But I surely know more than you. By the way, let tell you that you're not unnoticed; there's a force behind that has its eyes on you!"
"Also, the king isn't targeting you because he wants to use you to completely draw out the other side, but as of now, the king hasn't succeeded," the man advised, "If you don't want to be a pawn, then fight to be the player!"
"Who is the force behind?"
"I'm not certain yet, but for now, that person probably won't do much to you. Just be careful not to fall into soone else's trap and be led by the nose!"
Ye Xunhuan let out a long breath, "Thank you for telling all this!"
"Thank your mother instead; you have a good mom!" the man let out a deep breath.
The man was right, Ye Xunhuan indeed had a good mother. If not for Qin Fenghuang, Ye Xunhuan might not have survived safely until now.
Ye Xunhuan opened his mouth, just about to say sothing, but before he could, the man spoke again, "Spend more ti studying the Taiji Seal in your spare ti, there are significant secrets within it. Once you find those secrets, you'll be invincible!"
"You know the secrets of the Taiji Seal?"
"I've heard it contains the Marquis's riddle, but as for what that actually is, I don't know. Everything depends on you to uncover!" the man said softly, "You'd better find out the secret soon!"
"Otherwise, if soone else takes the Taiji Seal and discovers the secret, then it'll be too late!"
"Can you make it clearer what the Marquis's riddle refers to?"
