Chapter 93 Cruel Family
"Dad, drink some water first."

After Qin Buyi came and sat down on the sofa, Qin Siyu obediently poured him a cup of hot water.

Jiang Hou wiped his face in the bathroom and came to the living room: "Uncle, you came back suddenly, what happened?"

It was just past seven in the morning, and Qin Buyi's company was far from home. It took nearly two hours to drive one way, which meant that he had set off at five in the morning.

Qin Buyi took a sip of water and then said unhappily, "What do you think? You didn't even tell me about such a big thing as becoming a Transcendent."

There was martial law yesterday, and Qin Buyi and his colleagues, who did not have to go to work, were watching TV in the activity room.

When he saw the black-haired girl standing on the top of the building and the black-haired young man standing with a long sword in his hand, he recognized Jiang Hou at the first sight.

Then he drove back before daybreak when the impact was over.

"It's definitely my fault."

Jiang Hou coughed dryly and explained, "At first I was afraid that you would worry, and I didn't know what a transcendent was at that time, so I didn't dare to tell you."

"Later, when I was preparing to explore slowly, I joined the Heavenly Punishment by chance..."

Then Jiang Hou briefly explained what had happened during this period, and finally said, "Actually, since you didn't come back today, I was going to call you."

After hearing this, Qin Buyi was not as happy as he had imagined, but had a complicated look on his face: "I never thought that Xiao Hou, you would become a transcendent one day."

"Fortunately, you survived the mutation and your current condition seems very stable, which makes me feel relieved." When he said this, Qin Buyi showed fear on his face.

"Dad, from what you said, it seems that you knew about the existence of supernatural beings a long time ago?" Qin Siyu was a little surprised.

Qin Buyi nodded and did not hide it: "Well, because of your mother, I knew more than ten years ago that under the surface of society, there is a group of people with extraordinary abilities."

"And I also know that although extraordinary people are very strong, they are at risk of losing control and turning into monsters at any time. They are not as desirable as imagined."

"My mother." The person whose memory was a little vague was suddenly mentioned, and Qin Siyu suddenly became silent.

Noticing the change in the girl's expression, Qin Buyi reached out and touched her hair, sighing, "Your mother hasn't come back for so many years, and she actually has her own reasons."

"Dad, you say this every time, but what difficulties could lead to not calling you for more than ten years?" The girl's tone was a little stiff.

But it's normal to think about it. Her biological mother left for more than ten years when she was a few years old. There was no news or phone call from her. Anyone would feel resentful.

Qin Buyi smiled bitterly: "She really doesn't have time to call, or she doesn't dare to call."

"why?"

The girl frowned and stared at Qin Buyi. She knew that her father must know a lot about her mother, but she had always been perfunctorily refuted every time she asked him in the past.

Today, Qin Buyi did not avoid the topic. After a brief silence, he said softly, "Because she was afraid that something might happen to you, she didn't dare to come back."

"For me?" Qin Siyu was stunned.

Marquis Jiang sat up straighter. It was obvious that Qin Buyi was about to reveal some unknown secrets. No wonder Zong Zheng Nanmo liked to listen to gossip so much.

"You know Nanshan Kingdom, right?" Qin Buyi asked.

"know."

Marquis Jiang nodded. There was a small country between Nanshan Kingdom and Dongqin. Its national strength was medium in the world. It was not as strong as the three major empires, but it was not comparable to ordinary small countries.

This country is different from Dong Qin. Although it has entered modern society, the country still worships Shintoism and has many temples and statues.

"Xiao Yu, your mother's full name is Natalie Songmu Weimeng. She is from the Songmu Weimeng family of Nanshan Country. The head of the family is one of the priests of the Moon God Cult, the first religious cult in Nanshan Country."

At this point, Qin Buyi picked up the water cup and prepared to drink some water to moisten his throat. Seeing this, Jiang Hou was a little confused.

"Uncle, aren't you a retired soldier? How did you 'meet' the daughter of a big family in Nanshan Country?"

It's no wonder that Lord Jiang was curious. After all, judging from their identities and the fact that they were from two different countries, Qin Buyi and Qin Siyu's mother should have nothing in common.

"Natalie is the seventeenth child of her generation in the family. She is also a daughter, so she is not valued and is not restricted by the family."

"Because I like studying biology, I came to Yidu to study for a master's degree. It happened that I had just retired and had not yet started working, so I met her by chance."

"But although Natalie comes from a big family, she is very simple and kind, and knows nothing except studying."

"One year after we were together, Xiaoyu was born. She continued her postgraduate studies, and I went to work at the mining group. We lived happily like this for a few years until Song Muwei received a call from Meng's family."

Jiang Hou asked with great interest, "They don't agree with your marriage and force Auntie to go back?"

Qin Buyi shook his head: "Song Muwei Meng's family doesn't know that Natalie and I are together, so there is no such thing as disagreeing with our marriage and forcing her to go back."

"The phone call was to tell her that most of her brothers and sisters of the same generation were dead, and the family needed her to go back and do some work."

"All the brothers and sisters of the same generation are dead!" This development left Jiang Hou and Qin Siyu stunned.

"Yes, they are all dead."

Qin Buyi had a complicated look: "Song Mu, Wei Meng's family is a little special. For some reasons, there have been extraordinary people in these two generations, but the price is a bit high..." Then Qin Buyi told everything he knew about Song Mu, Wei Meng's extraordinary family, and the secrets of the cult in Nanshan Kingdom.

More than thirty years ago, there was no Moon God Cult, until a statue appeared from the ruins and turned nine people into extraordinary beings with great powers.

The first generation patriarch of Song Muweimeng was one of them.

At this point, the Moon Cult appeared and quickly developed into the number one cult in Nanshan Kingdom. The original nine people became high-ranking priests of the cult, holding high positions of power in Nanshan Kingdom.

In addition, the nine great priests have signed a contract with the statue. Anyone with their blood can draw on the power of the statue and receive blessings, which is actually touching the pollution.

Once successfully awakened, one would obtain the inheritance of the Moon Goddess, which was a powerful force far beyond the ordinary awakening inheritance.

However, the pollution is uncontrollable. Over the past few decades, only two people in the Song Muweimeng family have successfully awakened. The second generation of Moon Master is Natalie’s cousin.

Except for her cousin, dozens of her peers of the same generation were basically turned into monsters and killed due to contact with pollution. The mortality rate was frighteningly high.

This also led to the fact that the bloodline of Qin Siyu in Song Muwei Meng's family was sparse, and even with the 'non-existent Qin Siyu', there were only six people.

This is also the reason why Natalie, who was originally marginalized, ignored and ignored, did not dare to contact this side again after returning, for fear that Qin Siyu's existence would be exposed. In the end, she was forcibly taken back by her family and asked to receive blessings, and touched the pollution to turn into a monster.

Although the emperor is far away, with the power of the Song Muweimeng family, Qin Buyi and Natalie, who are just ordinary people, cannot protect Qin Siyu at all.

Originally, Qin Buyi was not going to tell Qin Siyu this secret. More than ten years have passed, and she has long forgotten what her mother looks like and has gotten used to her current life.

But I didn’t expect that the times would change drastically and the extraordinary would be revealed by the Demon Dragon Temple.

At the same time, he didn't expect that Jiang Hou had such bad luck and encountered a pollution incident. At the same time, he had incredible luck and successfully evolved and awakened with a one percent probability.

By the time Qin Buyi finished saying this, Qin Siyu was already standing there in a daze.

As for Lord Jiang, he lamented the fickleness of fate. He did not expect that the aunt he had never met was actually from a prominent family in Nanshan Country.

It's just that this family is a little crazy. For the sake of "power", only a few people are left in the huge family, and the others have turned into monsters.

After a long silence, Qin Siyu asked softly, "Dad, when was the last time you and Mom contacted each other?"

“Five years ago!”

All three of them fell silent. It was really hard for a family to be separated and not dare to contact each other for many years.

"Dad, did you say that one day mom and I will see each other again?" Qin Siyu's eyes were red and her tone was low.

Qin Buyi touched her hair and comforted her: "Don't be sad, as long as someone from Song Muweimeng's generation obtains the inheritance, we will be able to see Natalie again."

"According to the time, in one or two months, the Moon God statue will be revived after fifteen years. Then we will know the result."

Qin Buyi looked at Jiang Hou and said in a heavy tone: "In this increasingly chaotic era, it should be a good thing for you, Xiao Hou, to become a transcendent."

"You have power, even if it can get out of control at any time, but before it gets out of control you have the right to decide your own destiny."

"I came back this time just to hope that you would remember that even if you become a top-level warrior who can suppress others one day, you should never forget that you are still a human being."

"Natalie and I have talked a lot about pollution."

“She once said that many extraordinary strong people who have fallen into the state of being evil creatures and demon gods have lost their humanity, including the several priests who lost control in the first generation.”

"The extraordinary have no humanity. Self-awareness no longer defines oneself as a human being. This is the key to losing control."

"...I understand, uncle, I will remember your words." Jiang Hou nodded seriously.

Qin Buyi had a complicated expression on his face: "At my age now, I don't care if you guys are successful or stand out."

"My only hope is that you can live a peaceful and simple life, but now it seems..."

"Don't worry, uncle. Our family, including aunt, will live a peaceful life." When he said this, Jiang Hou's eyes became extremely firm.

"Haha...Okay, let's stop saying these unpleasant words. Xiaoyu, make two more dishes for lunch. Let's celebrate Xiaohou becoming a fourth-level expert."

"...Okay." The silent girl came back to her senses.

Qin Buyi drank a lot at the lunch table today. After the meal, he felt dizzy and went back to his room to sleep.

When Jiang Hou cleaned up the kitchen and returned to the living room, he saw Qin Siyu sitting on the carpet, with her hands on her cheeks, staring at the lazy white kitten on the sofa in a daze.

"Why? Are you still thinking about your aunt?" Jiang Hou walked over and sat down next to the girl.

"I didn't expect that this was the reason why my mother left, and I have blamed her for so many years. If she knew, how sad she would be..."

"Don't think too much. Life is full of disappointments."

"But as long as we look forward and persevere no matter what difficulties we encounter, everything will be fine one day, including between you and your aunt."

The girl hummed and gently rested her head on Jiang Hou's shoulder. The living room fell into silence for a moment.
