Chapter 321: Chapter 321: Yao Ye Extra (43)
“Young Master, you have finally returned. The Family Head just coughed up blood and fainted, saying… his days are numbered.”
This was the news that greeted Shen Yaoye as soon as he entered the Shen Family.
He abruptly clenched his heart.
Shen Yaoye headed to Shen Jingyun’s room, a path he had traversed countless tis, one he could navigate blindfolded.
But when he got to the door, he hesitated…
Shen Yaoye took a deep breath, straightened his slightly disheveled clothes, and then pushed the door open to enter.
“Jingyun, you’ve been working too hard these days. Don’t push yourself so much, everything will get better…”
A woman’s soft voice of reproach drifted to Shen Yaoye’s ears as the door swung open.
He suddenly froze.
The people inside looked up at the sound of the door opening.
“Yaoye, you’re back.” The beautiful young girl sitting by the bed imdiately stood up and asked gently, “Where have you been? With your brother like this, how can you still wander off?”
Shen Yaoye didn’t speak.
He stood at the entrance, unable to see the person on the bed.
“Co in,” the girl beckoned to him.
But Shen Yaoye stepped back and quickly left.
“Yaoye…”
He faintly heard Shen Jingyun’s voice calling out.
Shen Yaoye turned several corners before he stopped, finally releasing the breath he held since the doorway, the cool air rushing into his lungs.
“Young Master…”
Soone called out to him from behind.
Shen Yaoye composed his expression: “How could he suddenly beco like this?”
“You are also well aware of the recent disturbances in Dongyuan; various troubles are incessant. And with you away, all the burdens fell upon the Family Head.”
“The Family Head’s health was already poor, and the trip to Heavy Snow Night Moon made things worse…”
“So…”
Shen Yaoye felt his ears suddenly start ringing.
He couldn’t hear what the person behind him was saying.
“Give this to him to take.” Shen Yaoye handed over what he was holding to the person behind him: “Don’t let him know.”
“Young Master, what is this?”
“Primordial Spirit Golden Pill.”
Shen Yaoye’s figure flashed and disappeared from the person’s sight.
Shen Yaoye left the Shen Family. He still had to fulfill the conditions he exchanged with Chuzheng.
The turmoil within the Jun Family rapidly intensified under Shen Yaoye’s interference.
That woman wanted the Jun Family destroyed.
Shen Yaoye asked her why.
She said because Xie Shu wished it.
Xie Shu wished it, so she was willing to sacrifice even her own clan.
Shen Yaoye, following Chuzheng’s instructions, found out who was involved in the annihilation of Heavy Snow Night Moon and spared none,
By the ti he found the Jun Family Master, the man was barely clinging to life.
“Shen… Shen Yaoye.” The Jun Family Master’s murky eyes fixed on Shen Yaoye: “Your… your cultivation…”
The Shen Family had two children.
One was Shen Jingyun, the other Shen Yaoye.
Shen Jingyun had always been a genius, the center of attention.
However, Shen Yaoye was of average talent and always prone to causing trouble, which made him quite annoying in contrast to the sensible Shen Jingyun.
The Jun Family Master had never imagined that Shen Yaoye’s cultivation would not be inferior to Shen Jingyun before his injury…
“Jun Family Master, I’m sorry.” Shen Yaoye said softly.
“You…”
The shock remained in the Jun Family Master’s eyes.
And it would be frozen there forever.
Shen Yaoye walked past him, his sword dripping with blood, blossoming on the snow like a blazing red lotus.
–
The Jun Family and the Murong Family’s initial struggle led to a major reshuffle in the entire Dongyuan.
The Murong Family Master mysteriously disappeared, along with several core mbers, plunging the Murong family into internal chaos.
Shen Yaoye couldn’t rember how many people he had killed or how long he had wandered through this turmoil.
After the Jun Family and the Murong Family were dealt with, only the Shen Family remained.
Shen Yaoye returned to the city where the Shen Family resided.
He aimlessly walked the streets, snow lightly falling from the sky—weather that had persisted for a long ti.
Sotis the sun would shine, but it never lasted too long.
Shen Yaoye stopped in his tracks and gazed at a building not far ahead.
He was the sa age as Shen Jingyun, born in the sa year and month, but they didn’t look alike at all.
Because Shen Jingyun wasn’t a child of the Shen Family.
Shen Jingyun was the child of Father Shen’s dear friend. Due to being hunted by enemies, he beca an orphan shortly after birth.
So Father Shen adopted him.
Ever since Shen Yaoye could rember, his father had always shown special favor towards him, and Shen Yaoye knew he wasn’t his father’s biological son, which made him quite discontent with the man.
He felt his presence was the reason his father didn’t like him.
Shen Jingyun also knew his own background, so he always took extra care of him, shouldering the bla for any mistake he made.
Every ti he stepped forward, Father Shen wouldn’t punish him.
This made Shen Yaoye even more unsatisfied deep down.
During that ti, his relationship with Father Shen beca extrely tense.
Shen Jingyun indeed had talent; his progress in strength was extrely rapid, and he beca the paragon of the younger generation, held up as a model by others.
Shen Yaoye wasn’t bad either, but he refused to be like Shen Jingyun, seeking to attract Father Shen’s attention in another way.
So he didn’t take his cultivation seriously and instead constantly caused trouble.
When people talked about him, they referred to the genius of the Shen Family and the profligate son of the Shen Family.
At the age of fifteen.
Shen Yaoye was in the peak of his rebellious phase, his relationship with Father Shen was on the verge of breaking, and he ran away from ho alone.
Along the way, he encountered the opening of a Secret Realm. Shen Yaoye didn’t want to go, but for so reason he didn’t understand, he turned and charged straight into the Secret Realm.
The Secret Realms of Dongyuan were sotis dangerous, sotis not.
Shen Yaoye had bad luck.
This Secret Realm was extrely dangerous.
Trapped inside the Secret Realm, Shen Yaoye thought to himself in despair: dying here might be just as well, since no one outside cared about him.
But he didn’t expect Shen Jingyun to co looking for him.
When Shen Jingyun found him, he hadn’t eaten for several days and was curled up in a cave, mistaking any noise for a Xuan beast.
When Shen Jingyun ca in, Shen Yaoye couldn’t clearly identify his feelings.
Moved, shocked, embarrassed…
Perhaps all of the above.
“Yaoye,” said Shen Jingyun as he approached with a light, lifting him up gently and consoling, “It’s okay now, it’s okay.”
Shen Yaoye’s face flushed red, and he broke free from Shen Jingyun, “Who wants your false kindness?”
Shen Jingyun shook his head a bit helplessly and tousled his hair, “I’ll take you out.”
“Don’t mind your own business,” Shen Yaoye pushed away Shen Jingyun and walked out.
“Yaoye, slow down…”
The thods of exiting a Secret Realm varied, and although Shen Jingyun had made it in, he also didn’t know how to get out.
By evening, Shen Jingyun had made a fire, and Shen Yaoye sat alone in the distance, unwilling to get close.
Shen Jingyun had sohow caught a wild rabbit, now roasting it over the fire. The aroma wafted over to Shen Yaoye, prompting his stomach to embarrassingly growl.
Shen Yaoye hugged his stomach and turned away, back facing Shen Jingyun.
But having not eaten for several days, the enticing sll incessantly summoned growls from his stomach.
“What are you growling for, it’s just a few days of hunger? Is there a need to be so loud?” Shen Yaoye quietly chided his own stomach.
He wouldn’t eat anything from Shen Jingyun.
That’s what Shen Yaoye thought, yet he cautiously turned his head back to look that way.
There was only the burning fire and the at on the fla, Shen Jingyun was nowhere to be seen.
Shen Yaoye’s thoughts suddenly sprang to life.
