Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 198 Entrustment...

"After Yuechou and Qianxue's mother left, my wife was depressed all the time, and she passed away early. Until her death, she never forgot Yuechou and wanted to see him one last time... After that, I also became dejected and all alone. At most, I would secretly go to see Qianxue from time to time. So many years have passed like this..."

"Sigh, that's pretty much how it is... What a misfortune for our family!!!"

With a final sigh, Bai Sanren revealed the answers to all the mysteries.

Crackling!

The room fell silent for a moment, except for the red-hot, round pieces of wood burning in the brass-colored charcoal brazier, making a crackling sound as the dry wood met the fire.

"Sigh, every family has its own troubles..."

'

After Han Yi had processed what Bai Sanren had said, he sighed inwardly.

In essence, it's not a very complicated matter. It's simply a classic case of unfulfilled hopes for a son leading to family conflict. And to appease his parents and convince them, he hastily married a woman and had children…

Then comes the story of a rich girl who falls in love with a heartless man, pursuing her love despite her family's objections. However, the heartless man abandons his wife and children and leaves his family in pursuit of cultivation.

It's practically an alternate world version of the classic story of a devoted woman and a heartless man!

It can be said that in this family drama, the most innocent and hurt person is Lian Chengyue, and of course, Xiao Qianxue!

However, Han Yi had a peculiar feeling about Bai Sanren's son, Bai Yuechou...

This man is exceptionally handsome, possesses extraordinary talent, and is adored by beautiful women. Most importantly, he can resist temptation and focus solely on cultivation…

All these descriptions make him sound like the perfect child for someone else, as if his life is the epitome of what a protagonist should be!

"Cough, cough... I am incompetent; it is the father's fault for not teaching his son properly. To raise such a heartless, ungrateful, disloyal, and unfilial son is a heinous crime!!!"

After a long silence, Bai Sanren suddenly burst into tears, covered his face with his hands, and cried loudly.

Qianxue couldn't help but cry too. She stepped forward and hugged Bai Sanren's arm: "Grandpa Bai, I, I won't blame you. You've always been so good to me, how could I abandon you!"

"Cough... I am a man of such sins, it is a miracle that I have survived until now. Qianxue, Han Yi, you two should leave now, don't worry about this old man anymore!!!"

"Master Bai, why bother..."

Han Yi also strode forward and offered his advice. After Bai Sanren's explanation, many things that were previously unclear and unpredictable became clear.

For example, Bai Sanren's closest friend, the one Huang Ze mentioned as Bai Sanren's heartache, probably had Huang Ze taking care of Bai Yuechou quite a bit back then, but unexpectedly, he raised someone who had severed all emotions and desires...

For example, Bai Sanren had repeatedly reminded Han Yiren that he had seven emotions and six desires, and that he must remember that cultivation is about cultivating the human body and refining the human heart. He should not believe in the so-called severing of emotions and desires or cutting off ties and feelings in order to improve his strength. Those are crooked and evil ways!

Even during the recent Chinese New Year, Bai Sanren was worried that Han Yi would become so engrossed in cultivation that he would lose the warmth and humanity of a normal person…

All the questions and doubts that Han Yi had previously had were now answered.

But why did Bai Sanren suddenly bring these things up at this time?

It's not like we're facing life and death! "Master Bai, now that we've talked things out, we can deal with it later. Now, let's pack up and get ready to go back!"

"Yes, yes, Grandpa Bai, I only knew before that my mother had a knot in her heart, but I didn't know the specifics. Now that I know, no matter what, it's not Grandpa's fault. I'll go back and explain it to my mother, and then our family can be reunited!"

Qianxue had indeed matured a lot. After regaining her senses, she didn't complain about Bai Yuechou, whom she had never met and who had abandoned his wife and children. Instead, she comforted Bai Sanren.

"Good, good, good child!" Bai Sanren became excited, an unnatural blush appearing on his face. "Qianxue, with these words from you, I would be content even if I died!"

He coughed, turned his head with difficulty, and said to Han Yi, "Cough... Han boy, Qianxue just agreed to go back with you, so I'll entrust Qianxue and the 'Bai Family Sword Technique' to..." "Wait!"

Han Yi quickly waved his hand. The more he listened, the more something seemed off. Why was he suddenly about to set up a flag and leave his last words?

"Brother Bai, you seem to be in good spirits, why are you saying such things!"

"Alas..." Bai Sanren sighed, "Family members know their own situation. I can feel the damage to my meridians and the excessive loss of vital energy. My time is up... It's beyond cure now. I've come to terms with it. To be able to see my family's swordsmanship and the legacy before I die, and to have my granddaughter have someone to rely on, is enough for me..."

Having said that, he slowly rose, leaning against the bed, and unwrapped the gauze from his chest again: "The three treasures of a martial artist are essence, energy, and spirit... Now, my essence, energy, and spirit are exhausted, so I certainly cannot go to the Hidden Moon Temple with you. Even if I could force myself to walk, I would only be a burden to you..."

"Besides, I can feel that I'm already a candle flickering in the wind, and it's time for me to go. It's a miracle that I've held on until now..."

Beneath the gauze, there was still that huge gash, showing no signs of healing. Although the lingering yin energy was no longer present, it was clear that the amount of blood and qi flowing was extremely small, and the heart and lungs were beating very slowly.

Most importantly, you can vaguely see several tiny holes in the blood vessels, which prevents the blood and qi from circulating properly.

"Huh? This..."

Han Yi instantly understood the reason. The total amount of blood and qi in a martial artist's body is fixed, but Bai Sanren had too much of his fresh blood and qi absorbed by those bloodthirsty seeds. In addition, he was old and frail, and his total blood and qi was already declining year by year. This also caused his blood and qi to be unable to recover and his wounds to not heal!

Moreover, near his wound were small holes caused by the seeds taking root and sprouting, making it even more difficult for Bai Sanren, who already had insufficient blood and qi supply, to recover…....

In short, Bai Sanren's current symptoms can be understood as insufficient Qi and blood, leading to multiple organ failure, which explains his feeling of being on the verge of death...

Therefore, although Han Yi used the Evil-Breaking Force to remove the Yin energy from Bai San's body, he overlooked one point: the Yin energy was removed, but the lost Qi and blood and the wounds caused could not be restored by the Evil-Breaking Force!

I wonder if the other type of power in "Qianyang Gong," the Rejuvenating Power, will be effective...

Han Yi frowned, thinking, "But now that things have come to this, I have no choice but to try anything..."
