I think my luck is turning around.

An Ge walked over to the bloodstains on the ground. At that moment, Zhan Shi, sitting in a chair, slowly opened his eyes. He knew what had happened to him. His recent cultivation had reached a bottleneck, and breaking through was difficult.

"Your inner demons are hard to control, and you can't rush things lately. But what's going on now?"

An Ge organized and summarized the limited information available. The questions she asked were also focused on key points.

“I want to see her, but that island needs me to become stronger. I don’t have time. I can’t afford to slack off at all.”

"That island? Which island?" An Ge naturally asked Mu An with practiced ease. Mu An slowly replied, "Nange Island, a misty, ethereal island. It is said that there are immortals there who are kind and generous, bestowing elixirs upon people to bless them with good health and help them ascend to immortality."

There are many fairies on this South Pavilion Island, but these fairies cannot leave the island at will; otherwise, they will be killed and their souls will return to South Pavilion to complete the cycle of reincarnation.

"Reincarnation? Doesn't their reincarnation end after death? Why do their souls have to return directly to Nange Island?"

"Their souls are inextricably linked to Nangkat Island; they can never leave Nangkat Island in their entire lives."

Mu An's explanation shocked An Ge. She looked at Zhan Yu in horror, but Zhan Yu looked back at her with a puzzled expression. Why was she looking at her like that? Was there something wrong with her?

She carefully made sure she was alright before asking the question.

"Why are you looking at me like that? It's kind of scary."

"I suspect you are from Nangkat Island."

This statement is indeed somewhat unfounded, but An Ge still said it without hesitation. The person in front of her looks quite similar to James, but he looks more like someone else.

Perhaps it's because of her mother's appearance, but are Zhan Yu and Zhan Shi really just a simple master and apprentice? An Ge wasn't sure, but based on Zhan Yu's age, she could make a guess.

"Zhanyu, how old are you? Could you tell me your birth date and time?"

"Twenty years old, the thirteenth day of the third month of the Xin Si year, at the third quarter of the Chou hour."

Despite being an adopted child, he could accurately state his age, date of birth, and even the time of birth.

"you sure?"

“This is what my master said, this is my birth date and time.”

As Zhan Yu spoke, she looked at her master, but he simply turned his head away, refusing to look at her. At that moment, Zhan Yu felt a little confused and somewhat afraid.

"Why? How do you know my birth date and time so accurately? Didn't you find me?"

At this moment, Zhan Yu went through all the possibilities in her mind, but she still couldn't predict the actual outcome.

"Did you kill my parents?"

Hearing this, James actually breathed a sigh of relief. Well, let's just admit it! If she knew the truth, she might not be able to bear it even more.

"While your mother was indeed his mission point, your father did not die."

But to outsiders, the outcome is already clear; some facts cannot be hidden. He's growing older and looking more and more like someone else—it's a matter of genes, something that cannot be overcome.

At this moment, An Ge was already sitting there with her legs crossed, watching this good show. Although she would occasionally send a comment from the side, it was still very important.

I really have to say, in this emotionally charged scene, Zhan Yu's tears were truly overflowing, falling in large drops! The doubt, the questioning, and the grievances were expressed perfectly!

"My mother was your target? Why didn't you kill her before I was born, but waited until after I was born? There are many suspicious points here."

You've known my sore spots and my most vulnerable points since I was little. You're my only master. I have no parents. Even though others mistakenly believe you're my father, they still scold me, calling me a child without a mother.

But I never imagined that it would be you who hurt my mother! My master.

Every word Zhan Yu spoke was a question and a challenge, but Zhan Shi remained silent, simply listening attentively.

Perhaps letting Zhan Yu continue with this misunderstanding would be a better outcome. But the person beside her, who had a complete understanding of the situation, didn't think so. She only knew that the situation was getting bigger and more interesting.

"Let me add something else: your father killed your mother."

An Ge spoke with such ease, even a hint of joy. At this moment, Zhan Yu's shocked gaze fell entirely on An Ge. What was she saying? Hadn't she just said that her master killed her mother? How did it become that her father killed her mother?

With her slightly dazed expression from the rain and the shocked looks on the faces of those around her, the scene was truly hilarious. An Ge couldn't hold back her laughter after seeing it.

"Hahahaha, don't make such a funny face, okay?"

I am only someone who knows the past; the future is still uncertain.

"So you mean that her master isn't actually her master, but her father... right?"

Li Yuesheng hesitated for a long time before finally voicing his last question. He couldn't believe that their relationship was like this, not just a simple master-disciple relationship. Besides, Zhan Yu and Senior Zhan Shi didn't look that alike!

At this moment, Li Yuesheng looked back and forth, comparing the two people's appearances. To be honest, they didn't really look that alike.

"Stop shaking your head. Zhan Yu looks more like his mother. You should know why James has always been afraid to face her."

Because seeing his rain-stained face would make him feel guilty, afraid, and remorseful.

An Ge stood up, picked up a pot of tea and a cup from another table, and leisurely began to drink.

At this moment, Xu Han and Li Yuesheng, who were outsiders, were already dumbfounded. As for An Ge, since she was the one who raised this question, she wasn't shocked; she only found it more and more interesting.

Is what An Ge said true?

Zhan Yu asked cautiously, afraid that the answer she gave would not be what she wanted.

“I’m going to Nangkat Island. I’m going to find your mother. I want to… see her.”

But James, who said those words, did not open his eyes; they remained closed, as he dared not face his daughter.

"What exactly is this Nangka Island? Where is it located? Where are you going to find her? You killed her with your own hands, where are you going to find her?"

Zhan Yu's repeated questions directly exposed James's deepest pain. Indeed, the two people who know each other best always hit the most painful spot.

“Your mother is there. She didn’t die; she just went back. I’m going to find her.”

"You killed her with your own hands. Don't you know whether she's dead or not?"

Rainy words are still just as heartbreaking.
