  Yuanen Zhentian’s expression became slightly unpleasant at this point. “On that evening, crying voices and strong dark elemental fluctuations awakened me from my sleep. When I saw Tiandang, his entire body was covered in blood. He was being pursued and killed by a demon-like creature. I rapidly stopped the demon. Tiandang stopped me just as I was about to kill it. He profusely begged me not to kill it. On the other hand, the demon that I had beaten into unconsciousness slowly transformed into a human form. It was precisely Ye Hui.”


  There was no doubt that Yuanen Zhentian had not elaborated much in detail, but one could imagine how shocked he was upon encountering this situation.

  “I had only come to realize afterward that Ye Hui was an evil soul master and her martial soul was the Fallen Angel. The Fallen Angel was inherently evil and was somehow linked to the demonic plane far away. Moreover, it would very easily lose control of its emotions. It transformed into the demon or summoned the demon when it lost control.”


  “Tiandang profusely begged me. He said that it was true love for him and Ye Hui. Even though Ye Hui’s martial soul was an evil martial soul, Ye Hui had never truly harmed anybody before. I truly believed him at the time. After all, Tiandang was my most beloved son. However, how could Ye Hui never have truly harmed anyone before? Tiandang was hurt by her hands that very day! I regretted very much that I was indecisive when I could have immediately made a move and killed Ye Hui. If I were to do so at the time, perhaps Tiandang could accept it more easily. It would not have resulted in so many things.”


  Yuanen Yehui was about to lose her temper upon hearing Zhentian’s words but she was forcefully calmed down by Tang Wulin.

  Yuanen Zhentian’s voice turned deep. “All of you should be able to imagine the situation that followed afterward. Even though I opposed it strongly, Tiandang arbitrarily acted. He inherently had a fragile temperament but he was extremely stubborn. My attempts and efforts were fruitless while Ye Hui had also genuinely paid close attention to her actions. Three years later, Tiandang advanced to Title Douluo at the age of twenty-four. On the other hand, Ye Hui had never undergone the transformation before in three years’ time. I had also tacitly consented to their relationship.”


  “After advancing to Title Douluo, Tiandang proposed about his marriage to Ye Hui. After careful consideration, I did not manage to remain obstinate in the negotiation so I could only consent to Tiandang’s request to get married. This was because Ye Hui was already pregnant with you. Had it not been for it, I would have never consented to their marriage.”


  “Uneventfully days passed. Tiandang cultivated with great effort and elevated at an extremely swift speed with very little detour. He had also found his direction. It was different from my choice of Mainstay back then. He had embarked on a path of protection. He said that he wished to protect the ones he loved, his clan, his wife and his daughter.”


  At Yuanen Zhentian’s mention of this, Yuanen Yehui’s eyes reddened at once. Even though her memories of her father were only limited to her younger days, she could still clearly remember how affectionate he was to her when she was just a little girl.

  Yuanen Zhentian continued. “At the age of thirty, your father stepped into the ranks of a Hyper Douluo. He was the first man to achieve this rank at the age of thirty years in the history of the clan. At the time, the entire clan was saying that he could even possibly surpass me and became the first pseudo-god-ranked clan head. Your family was also very happy at the time. Ye Hui had barely made an appearance in public ever since that incident. She took care of you at home. All of you genuinely loved one another. That was until the day when the catastrophe dawned upon us.”


  “The day of the catastrophe remains fresh in my memory even today. Do you know why your second uncle is filled with hostility towards you? Do you know why you were sent to the Shrek Academy? Also, your mother’s death and your father’s crippling were all because of that catastrophe.”


  “Catastrophe?” Yuanen Yehui was slightly confused. She did not seem to recall any such catastrophe that had happened.

  Yuanen Zhentian said, “That’s right. It was precisely a catastrophe and the catastrophe was brought by your mother.”


  “I told you earlier that your mother’s cultivation base was quite powerful. Back then, she revealed that she had the ability to suppress your father when she transformed into the Fallen Angel and lost control of her emotions. She was not just a Soul Douluo-ranked soul master at that time. On the other hand, even though she had not intentionally cultivated in the years that followed, the abilities possessed by her would still elevate despite her lack of cultivation. Her cultivation base was elevating under silent influence and she had finally ascended to the Title Douluo-rank. The Fallen Angel that had ascended to Title Douluo-rank brought the catastrophe.”


  “According to Ye Hui, she was unaware of what happened to her at the time. After breaking through to a nine-ringed cultivation base, an uncontrollable notion came into her mind and made her walk to the outside to a spot quite some distance away from the clan. Then, her ninth soul skill was formed. Her ninth soul skill was a door. It was a door that led to the demonic plane. When the door was opened, it linked the demonic plane to our Douluo Continent. Terrifying demons dashed out from the door. On the other hand, Ye Hui had already lost herself at that time. What was even more terrifying was that the Demon’s Door was enlarging continuously and more powerful demons had gradually began to descend following the enlargement of the door.”


  “The catastrophe began from that very moment.”


  Yuanen Zhentian deeply frowned. “Demons were already spread out all over the hills and valleys upon our discovery. Your second aunt had returned from her travels precisely at the time and encountered the demons’ attack. She resisted with great effort but there were overly powerful and too many. When the clan learned about that and rushed over, your second uncle witnessed her being stabbed by a demon through her chest.”


  “You have always only seen the surface of many things. Do you know how your second uncle was in the past? He was a very cowardly person in temperament. He would always smile at anyone and greeted everyone kindly when he was young. His natural endowment was not as good as your father but he was well-loved by everyone in the clan. Even though your second aunt was married into the clan by arrangement, she had a very good relationship with him. After witnessing the tragic death of your second aunt on that very day, he had a tremendous change in his temperament.”


  Yuanen Yehui was slightly stunned. She recalled all sorts of situations that happened when she was young. Yes! She could indistinctly remember that she did not see her second aunt anymore after her mother was driven to her death. On the other hand, her second uncle had a sudden change of personality after the death of her mother. Her second uncle picked faults and hysterically criticized her mother.

  Yuanen Zhentian spoke, “The clan discovered a large number of demons so the people of the entire clan risked their lives to resist them. I had also personally taken part but we remained incapable of suppressing the growth of the Demon’s Door. We had no other choice so I asked help from the Shrek Academy at the time. Atlas Douluo brought along the numerous powerhouses from Shrek as they swiftly came rushing over. They helped us resist the invasion from the great demonic troop and chased them back to the Demon’s Door.”


  Zhentian looked towards Tang Wulin. “The spear you used earlier was the Atlas Douluo’s Atlas Divine Spear, right?”


  Tang Wulin nodded.

  Yuanen Zhentian continued, “Had it not been because I figured out that you came from Shrek, I would have never allowed you to listen to the story. If I’m not mistaken, you’re not Yu Longyue but Tang Wulin. You’re the leader of this generation’s Shrek Seven Monsters.”


  “Yes, I am.”


  Yuanen Zhentian heaved a sigh. “That very day, we defeated the demons and destroyed the Demon’s Door with the help of Atlas Douluo. Ye Hui was already unconscious and she had once again transformed back into her human form. I only came to the realization after discussing with Atlas Douluo that the Fallen Angel could be so terrifying. It was not just a martial soul. In simpler terms, the Fallen Angel martial soul was more like a seed. It was a seed projected by the demonic plane using some unknown method onto our plane that hid from the lord of our plane. The seed develops inside a human’s body until the soul master achieves a nine-ringed cultivation base then the Demon’s Door will uncontrollably open and the demons will invade us by linking the door to the demonic plane.”


  “It was no longer the affair of our clan but was related to the safety of all mankind. I was in disbelief when I learned of this and I corroborated this repeatedly with Atlas Douluo but the answer remained the same.”


  “Your father completely refused to accept the answer. He seized the opportunity to sneak your mother away when we were engaged in the conversation. Yes, it was me who personally stopped them. I could not let them go. Not only for the clan, but it was for all mankind. These words sound exaggerated but if you had seen the terror of the demonic troops back then with your own eyes, you would understand why I had to do what I did. Fortunately, Atlas Douluo came just in time. Had it been a little later, more terrifying great demons from the demonic plane would have entered our plane and would have brought an even more terrifying catastrophe. Even as such, thirty-seven people from our clan had fallen in that battle.”


  Tang Wulin had taken part in battles with the abyssal plane before so he was of course well aware of the horrors of a collision between two planes. He could not help feeling a sense of heaviness draped over his mood at this exact moment.
