"Shangguan Jun, you... very good." Luo Chao turned and left.
"What? Do you plan to retaliate?"
A fierce glint flashed in Shangguan Jun's eyes; he had no qualms about strangling danger in its cradle.
"If it were you, what would you do?" As Luo Chao said this, his body was tense, mind alert, ready to make a move at any mont.
"Shangguan Yunxin is my granddaughter." Shangguan Jun's tone turned desolate.
"You killed your own granddaughter with your own hands!"
"Then tell , what should I do?"
"Just let them coexist like this; what's the problem?!"
"Yunduo is the Patriarch of the Shangguan family. She cannot marry for life. And Yunxin? She is growing up every day and will inevitably marry. Tell ... how can the secret remain hidden?!"
"I..."
"dically speaking, they are one person, but... sotis it's Yunduo, sotis it's Yunxin. In my eyes, they are two different people."
Shangguan Jun seed lost in mories, his voice like a dream: "One is cold but brilliant, the other mischievous and elfish. To , actually... I'm their grandfather. Compared to the perpetually icy Yunduo, I personally prefer Yunxin because she has flesh, blood, and emotions. But what can I do? Only the exceptionally talented Yunduo can control the family and lead it to greatness—if one of them must be sacrificed... Luo Chao, if you were in my position, what would you do?"
Luo Chao was silent.
Yes.
Coexistence between the two is not feasible; this issue must be resolved, and the solution is, one of them must disappear.
For Shangguan Jun, both options are painful.
Which one to sacrifice?
When personal feelings cannot decide, one must consider from the family's perspective—clearly, Shangguan Yunduo's value to the family far exceeds Shangguan Yunxin's.
"So you killed Yunxin?" A cold voice ca from behind.
"Yunduo!" Shangguan Jun was horrified.
"Yes, I heard it all, heard every word."
Shangguan Yunduo, her face pale, slowly stood up from the chair and glared at Shangguan Jun: "From childhood, you all ingrained in the thought that Yunxin would co back when I slept. When I grew up, this lie couldn't fool anymore, so you devised various reasons—for twenty years, I believed I had a twin sister, but... it was all false!"
"Yunduo, listen to , your parents and I had no choice, you..."
"And you!"
Shangguan Yunxin's eyes flashed with a compelling chill as she looked at the stunned Luo Chao: "Only at certain tis would Yunxin's and my mind coexist. I could learn so things from her."
Indeed!
Only in rare special circumstances, when either of their emotions fluctuated greatly, could both souls appear simultaneously.
Shangguan Yunduo had no emotions, so her mood wouldn't fluctuate, only Shangguan Yunxin's would.
More than once, when Shangguan Yunxin's emotions fluctuated greatly, the sisters' minds were activated simultaneously, the body taking on dual roles, communicating with each other.
In those special monts, Shangguan Yunxin had the chance to inform her sister of so situations in that way.
"What?" Luo Chao asked dumbfoundedly.
"I initially wanted to kill you, but Yunxin said she liked you and asked not to. Yet you killed her with your own hands!" Shangguan Yunduo shouted frantically.
"I... I... I didn't know..."
"Then accompany Yunxin into the grave!"
Suddenly!
Shangguan Yunduo's form cut through the air, charging rapidly at Luo Chao.
What...
Luo Chao's face paled in shock.
Because, despite Shangguan Yunduo being at the Middle Tier of Eighth Grade, her cultivation skyrocketed to Ninth Grade, and she displayed so kind of special amplification.
At this mont, Shangguan Jun showed a look of elation, as if he already knew it would turn out this way.
Indeed, he already knew!
Despite Shangguan Yunduo's exceptional talent, to truly control a family, intelligence alone wasn't enough; powerful strength was also necessary, or how to command the clan?
Shangguan Yunduo ascended rapidly, reaching the Eighth Grade while still young, but to beco Patriarch...
Previously, Shangguan Yunduo didn't have a special constitution, her cultivation and combat power were at the Middle Tier of Eighth Grade. What reason was there for her to be appointed Patriarch?
Actually...
Years ago, when Shangguan Jun was trying to find out the sisters' ailnt cause, he inadvertently ca across an ancient book.
It ntioned dual-souled individuals.
Dual souls are rare in millions, but by certain ans to rge them, it would combine the two's talents, sothing extraordinary and unparalleled.
This was Shangguan Jun's ultimate goal in finding Luo Chao to heal Shangguan Yunduo—achieving Shangguan Yunduo's exceptional cultivation!
When Shangguan Yunduo and Shangguan Yunxin's cultivation talents fused, not only did her cultivation breakthrough to the Ninth Grade of Martial Dao, but her talents also underwent a shocking transformation.
A punch was launched.
The winds changed.
With Luo Chao's speed, he was unable to dodge, nor could he draw his weapons in ti, he had no choice but to brace himself for the incoming punch.
Bang...
Luo Chao was in the Late Stage of Seventh Grade, his attack power was slightly inferior to the Late Stage of Ninth Grade.
In contrast, Shangguan Yunduo's cultivation had reached the Initial Stage of Ninth Grade, and with the realm's amplification, her battle power already surpassed the Ninth Grade.
It should be noted, within the sa realm, differences in grade are minimal, but cross-realm discrepancies are truly staggering.
The gap between Luo Chao and Shangguan Yunduo precisely reached cross-realm levels.
With a thunderous sound.
Luo Chao flew out like a cannonball, spitting out two mouthfuls of blood while still in mid-air.
His body crashed into the study's wall, the entire wall caved in with a human-shaped crater nearly ford!
One move!
Severely wounded!
Luo Chao couldn't react, and Shangguan Yunduo had already shot out, sending a flying kick towards Luo Chao.
Clearly, with Luo Chao's severely injured state, he couldn't withstand this kick!
Absolutely fatal!
Damn it... to die at this vile woman's hands!
Boom!
Amidst another explosive sound, Luo Chao realized he wasn't dead, because Shangguan Yunduo altered her move in mid-air, and the kick landed on the ground.
Crash...
A large section of the floor turned into wood splinters, centered on her landed foot, countless dense cracks spread outward, threatening to collapse the floor beneath.
Shangguan Yunduo gasped heavily, seeming especially exhausted.
How could this be!
To be tired after just one move?
No!
The fatigue wasn't physical, but spiritual.
Her face showed extre complexity, a look of tangled thoughts incapable of understanding, as if countless ideas were intertwining and pressing.
"Yunduo!"
Shangguan Jun finally reacted, urgently shouting: "Don't kill him!"
"Get out!"
Suddenly, Shangguan Yunduo fixed her staring eyes on Luo Chao, sternly shouting: "Never let see you again, or I'll make sure you die with no resting place! Get out!"
