The Book Soul Chronicles: Godslayer

Chapter 18 Ye Ling's Background

Ye Ling, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened her eyes and realized that her position on the ground was really indecent.

I slowly got up, but before I could even stand up, my lower back started to feel stiff from sitting in that position for too long. So I had to sit cross-legged to rest for a bit.

Ye Ling thought to herself, "How come even after cultivating, my body still looks so easily injured?"

Ye Ling recalled that she had never properly trained her body before. How could this be? She had to find a way to train properly in the future.

However, since this is my first time encountering cultivation, I should first sort out my memories before making any plans.

Ye Ling is a direct descendant of the Ye family of Nanpu. Her father is Ye Zhenyu, the head of the Ye family. She has two older brothers, Ye Xiao and Ye Ling, and a younger brother, Ye Tan, who is three years younger than her.

Her mother was Yun Chuyue, the youngest daughter of Yun Lei, the patriarch of the Yun family in the Desolate Ancient Era. As one of the three great families of the Desolate Ancient Era, and with her mother being the youngest daughter, she was deeply loved. In the first place, the Yun family did not agree to Yun Chuyue's marriage, let alone marrying into Nanpu, which was so far away from the Desolate Ancient Era.

Finally, after much pleading and cajoling, the mother and father agreed to marry her in the desolate wilderness. The father also promised that he would not take his mother back to Nanpu until the day he became the head of the family, and that he would accompany his mother back to the desolate wilderness whenever she missed home.

Large families like the Yun family usually need to form alliances through marriage to solidify their position. However, the ancestors of the Yun family did not value the glory gained by sacrificing their children. They believed that their glory should be earned and protected by themselves. Therefore, the Yun family was relatively free in terms of their children's marriages.

However, there is a rule that the person getting married must be approved by the Yun family, especially the head of the family; anyone who gets married without permission will be immediately removed from the family register.

Ye Ling thought this rule was good, to prevent people like Ye Ling in the original book from being blinded by love and letting wolves into the house, dragging down the Yun family and ruining the Yun family's thousand-year honor.

Her maternal grandfather saw that his daughter was determined to marry her father, and he was reluctant to let her go. He also saw that her father was good-looking, talented, and virtuous, and he was so sincere. So no matter how reluctant he was to let his daughter go, he could only turn a blind eye and agree.

Anyway, my daughter will eventually get married. Choosing someone she likes, who is of good character, and reliable is probably a kind of luck.

Therefore, Ye Ling had lived with her parents in the Ancient Wilderness until she was six years old, and had always stayed with the Yun family. It can be said that she, her brothers, and her eldest brother were all born in the Ancient Wilderness, and her eldest brother was a genius who grew up in the Ancient Wilderness.

Until her sixth birthday party, there was an uninvited person. She clearly saw that person in her memory, but now she couldn't remember what he looked like. It was as if his face was blurred, but she remembered that he was very handsome.

At her birthday party, she publicly called him "handsome uncle." Yes, handsome. Her mother gently said, "You can't call an uncle 'handsome.'"

She remembers saying at the time, "All beautiful things in the world should be praised for their beauty, beautiful flowers, beautiful butterflies. I think Uncle is very handsome, that's Uncle."

The other person seemed amused by her childish words, and gently tapped my brow with a fan that appeared out of nowhere, saying with a smile, "Truly a chosen one, capable of reversing fate, so adorable!"

After saying that, she put a jade bracelet on my wrist that could change shape freely.

When he said that, everyone present was stunned. Fortunately, it was a family dinner, and everyone was family. The grandfather immediately realized what was happening, invited him in alone, and instructed him not to reveal a single word about it before leaving.

I was still playing with the jade bracelet on my hand. I wanted to take it off to take a closer look, but I couldn't get it off no matter what I did. Then I got bored and stopped taking it off, and started drooling over the food.

When I saw my maternal grandfather again later, he always looked worried and his eyes were filled with complicated emotions.

The family held a secret meeting, and everyone looked at me with complicated expressions. I was the only child present.

I was playing around at the time and only heard some things, like... there was a world-ending war, the Yun family was severely damaged or even wiped out, the Ye family was wiped out, but I am the chosen one, and in the future, time will be reversed because of this, and I will be able to participate in stopping the world-ending crisis and fight for a glimmer of hope for the prosperity of the Yun family and the survival of the Ye family.

However, my opportunity lies in Zhongzhou, in the Floating Heaven Sect, and the Yun and Ye families cannot interfere. This opportunity will only appear when I turn eighteen. I can only return home and reunite with my family when I am twenty-six.

After that, my parents went back to Nanpu with my second brother, my younger brother, and me. The reason was that my grandfather did not want to deal with family affairs and told my father to hurry home and inherit the position of family head.

Before leaving, my grandfather told me, “Ling’er, the reason why our Yun family is so powerful is not only because there are many geniuses in the Yun family, but also because we have a dragon vein. The entrance is in the Jade Pool in the Yun family’s Jade Pool Palace. You only need to drip your blood into the pool water and recite the incantation that I sent into your sea of ​​consciousness.”

"If you return and find that the Yun family has already met with misfortune, do not be sad. If there are any surviving members of the clan, take them into the Dragon Vein to cultivate diligently. If they can survive, then rebuild the Yun family."

"Also, you can't tell anyone about this, and you can't mention a word about the family secret meeting to anyone either, understand?"

"Ling'er understands, Grandfather. Are you leaving me? Ling'er will miss you, Father, Mother, Brother, Brother, and everyone else."

Ye Ling felt sad and sorrowful at that time, but she did not shed any tears, nor did she show any fear of the future in her eyes.

Yun Lei looked at his granddaughter with great satisfaction, but also with heartache. At such a young age, she had to leave their protection and be alone in the outside world. He wondered if anyone would bully her while they were away, what if she was deceived, or what if she got hurt and no one would take care of her. The more Yun Lei thought about it, the more heartbroken he became.

"Ling'er, you can come back to see us when you are twenty-six. But before that, for your safety, you must never reveal your relationship with the Yun family or the Ye family. Remember, you cannot trust anyone, and you must never tell anyone."

Ye Ling nodded.

Yun Lei looked at her intently for a while, as if imprinting her image in his mind, and then made up his mind that it was better to end the pain quickly than to suffer for a long time.

“Ling’er, just in case, your grandfather will seal your memories for now. The mark between your eyebrows will also gradually fade until it disappears. Once it disappears, it means your memories will be completely sealed. Don’t worry, when you turn eighteen and find your opportunity, the memory seal will be broken and you will remember everything.”

"Remember everything, follow the arrangements, don't worry or be afraid, your maternal grandfather will arrange everything for you, and will also prepare various gifts for you every year. When you come back at twenty-six, your maternal grandfather will personally give them to you."

"Yes, Grandfather, you mustn't lie to Ling'er."

"Alright, alright, I won't lie to Ling'er."

"Ling'er, stand in the middle."

Ye Ling remembered that she was standing in the middle, surrounded by five beads. Her grandfather, father, and three uncles each poured spiritual power into one bead. The beads emitted different colored lights, eventually forming a five-element pattern. Ye Ling's body floated in the air, as if she had fallen asleep, and then she knew nothing more.

When she awoke again, she was at the Floating Light Sect in Zhongzhou, the sole survivor rescued from the clutches of evil cultivators by True Person Wuwang. Yes, she woke up as an orphan, an orphan who had suffered severe trauma and lost her memory.

She was raised by Master Wuwang and watched grow up by the other elders.
