  This was a beautiful memory. Qin Wentian could sense the happiness of his father, Qin Yuanfeng in it. The carefree and unrestrained personality of his was truly a marvel. After seeing the woman he secretly fell in love with being together with his other best friend whom he regards as a brother, he was able to bless them and let go just like that.

  He started to pursue this young woman he met. Back then when Qin Wentian’s mother was younger, she was more beautiful than the memory he saw her in. Exuding magnificence, grace and elegance, it was like all the spiritual qi in the world was concentrated onto her. Her personality was the same as his, uninhibited and carefree. Despite Qin Yuanfeng’s attempt to pursue her, her heart remained unmoved, akin to that of a goddess.

  The memories of his father pursuing his mother continued on but weren’t fully complete and was somewhat fragmented. Even so, Qin Wentian could clearly feel that the memory of this whole experience was deeply etched in his father’s heart, with emotions both bitter and sweet.

  She seemed to be from an extraordinary birth, and had countless pursuers. Qin Yuanfeng worked even harder in his cultivation and despite the years passing, he would frequently think about her. However soon after, she was summoned back to her clan and it was very rare for her to come out. In fact, at that time, she didn’t want to accept Qin Yuanfeng’s pursuing of her.

  The next stretch of memories was a little chaotic as the scenes in those memories jumped about to different timings. As he continued watching, the next scene was years later, and Qin Yuanfeng must have cultivated already for a very long period of time. He was clearly older but his personality was as the same as before, carefree and uninhibited. But this time……no matter how he tried, he couldn’t let go of the goddess-like woman whom he fell in love with.

  And one day, he barged into a forbidden ground, bypassing layers of heavenly moats, experienced countless instances of life and death…… all this just to see a smile from her. Finally, Qin Yuanfeng obtained her heart. He brought her together with him to roam the world, to rest and fly together, living a life of boundless joy.

  However just at this moment, Qin Yuanfeng’s clan members found him. The two parties had some conflict and the elders of his clan wouldn’t allow Qin Yuanfeng and the young woman to be together. How could Qin Yuanfeng submit? He fought against people of his own clan, doing what his heart told him to. For the past few years, he has always been following his heart. Him who was lonely since young, had cultivated a stubborn personality as time passed. Right from the start, none of the elders of his clan had ever looked on favourably or took care of him, so how could he listen to them now? This was a love that belonged to them, nobody can obstruct him.

  Qin Wentian’s mother’s clan also objected to their union. They even sent out experts to kill Qin Yuanfeng. And not only them, the many pursuers of Qin Wentian’s mother also banded together, wanting to hunt down the two of them. Many earth-shaking grand battles occured, the magnitude of which was something Qin Wentian who was currently in the immortal foundation realm, had no way to imagine. The heavens and earth trembled, the ghosts and demons wailed, the sky changed color. Qin Wentian had no idea how powerful his father was then, but all their opponents were so overwhelmingly powerful that his heart shuddered with fear just from spectating.

  His parents continued fleeing while their clans sent people to hunt them down unceasingly. In the process of fleeing, Qin Yuanfeng established his own power. Many of those servants who served him when he was a boy, all chose to lay down their lives and join him, fighting side by side. He fled to a place where no know knew him, yet the assassins never stopped. It felt like this was their destiny. But during this period of time, the feelings between his parents grew deeper and deeper, they were willing to live and die together.

  At this moment, all the unlocked memories have been cleanly digested by Qin Wentian. He was immersed within them for a long period of time, the memories were either the growing up of his father, or the love story between his father and his mother.

  Qin Wentian opened his eyes, gleaming with sharpness yet intense anticipation was in his heart.

  What happened later? What happened exactly?

  Although he didn’t manage to unlock the complete set of memories, merely fragmented ones, he could still deduce something from everything he has seen. Most likely, his conjecture wouldn’t be too far off the mark. This was the memory of his father growing up.

  "I need more memories." Qin Wentian closed his eyes and continued. Astral light from his constellation flowed continuously into him as his dimmed immortal foundation flared up resplendently once more, filled to the brim. Qin Wentian once again sent his immortal sense into the tiny astral-being, he wanted to use the powerful immortal might to unlock the memory fragments hidden in the deeper layers. He wanted more memories to solve the puzzle of what truly happened to his parents.

  Qin Wentian’s immortal sense flew deeper and deeper into the starry space within the tiny astral-being. He only stopped after his immortal foundation dimmed again and started to arrange these memories.

  "That’s a cultivation art, and its temporarily useless to me." Qin Wentian categorised the memories related to innate techniques and cultivation arts to one side. These were all the power techniques and arts of his father and were all extremely strong. But now, Qin Wentian clearly had no interest nor the heart to study these. He wanted to know what happened to his parents.

  After some time, he finally managed to sort out the sequence of the remaining memories and started to digest them.

  These memories weren’t complete either. His parents had fled for many years, Qin Yuanfeng grew older yet the manly charm exuding from him furthered intensified. His presence had a gravity to it, Qin Wentian knew this was many years later.

  Today, Qin Yuanfeng’s old friends, the two of his best friend from his teenage years found him. Now, they were already married. Qin Yuanfeng naturally treated the two of them with great courtesy. After exchanging pleasantries, the man he regarded as a brother proposed a spar. Initially Qin Yuanfeng didn’t want to agree, but seeing how passionate his best friend was, Qin Yuanfeng finally conceded, and decided to have a match with his friend. However, he didn’t use his full strength because he don’t want to push his friend too far. But contrary to his expectations, his friend went all out and there was a few times where his friend issued some ruthless strikes that narrowly heavily injure him. And at this very moment, the girl he fell for in his youth, launched a sneak attack at his wife.

  Right now, Qin Yuanfeng was truly angered. He went all out, unleashing the entirety of his strength, causing the space around them to break apart. The particle world he was in had no way to withstand the magnitude of his strength. Waves of destruction leveled the ground, each of their blows created new mountains and rivers, turning existing fixtures into dust. The fight grew in intensity, Qin Yuanfeng’s best friend was the king among the younger generations of his era, how could he be weak? His strength was like a heavenly god, and divine glow circulated his entire being with every attack he launched. There was almost no one in the entire world who could stand against him, so powerful that Qin Wentian trembled despite him merely being an observer of this memory.

  Qin Yuanfeng also erupted with inconceivable power. He was like an ultimate god of battle, and his current strength actually made his two childhood friends start in fear. They actually had no way to take him down.

  One must know that they were kings and queens of their generations and would be the future leaders of the clan. Their combat prowess far surpassed others in their generations and would surely be legendary heaven-shaking figures in the future. Yet, for all their vaunted powers and potential, they actually couldn’t defeat Qin Yuanfeng.

  They understood that Qin Yuanfeng must have some miraculous encounters. There was a high possibility that it was that legendary encounter that made him so powerful.

  Finally, the two of them was forced into retreat. Qin Yuanfeng didn’t feel happy, he was extremely depressed instead. However, this memory also ended here as the scene in Qin Wentian’s mind jumped to that of another memory.

  Qin Yuanfeng and his wife changed their location, but they still couldn’t escape the clutches of their clans. The battle before caused an immense stir in Qin Yuanfeng’s clan. Qin Yuanfeng’s clan then sent their true experts, and in addition, they also actually allied with Qin Wentian’s mother’s clan members and decided to hunt them down together. For the battle now, it was experts of the older generations who acted. Yet another heaven-shaking grand battle occurred and the end result was Qin Yuanfeng’s wife was taken away. Despite so, Qin Yuanfeng refused to submit, the elders all wanted to take him back to their clan but he refused to obey, choosing to leave alone and announcing to the world that he, Qin Yuanfeng, has cut off all relations and ties, no longer belonging to their clan. The commotion grew bigger and bigger, to the point where there was no salvation.

  Until one day, when Qin Yuanfeng turned even more ancient, he eventually chose to return to his clan. However, this wasn’t a sign of his submission. His good friend from childhood now already has a lofty position in their clan and he returned precisely to challenge him to a fight. His combat prowess was naturally much higher than before, on the level of gods and demons. Once again, he used unimaginable power and defeated his friend, and many clan members of his faction decided to follow him.

  However, the elders from the older generations from the other factions in the clan didn’t take too kindly to his attempt to cause chaos. Numerous super strong experts appeared, all of them joining in the fight. However, Qin Yuanfeng and experts from his faction frenziedly fought back valiantly. This battle caused the territory of his faction to be leveled to the ground, all the buildings disintegrated into dust from impact of the fight, shaking the hearts of countless people. But to everyone’s immense shock, even the powerful super strong elders had no way to take down Qin Yuanfeng.

  The battle continued until the point where the old core ancient members of the clan stepped out. These were all people in the upper echelons, and they heavily injured Qin Yuanfeng, preparing to imprison him while they judge his crimes.

  The people of Qin Yuanfeng’s faction naturally resisted. The struggle lasted until one of the core ancients took out a heaven-fate changing treasure. Boundless heavenly law descended onto Qin Yuanfeng, ripping out waves of energy and power from him every instant. His old best friend from childhood who was defeated by Qin Yuanfeng, was at the other end of the treasure, receiving and absorbing the energy and power plundered from Qin Yuanfeng.

  Upon seeing this scene, the people of Qin Yuanfeng’s faction all turned crazy. They spared nothing and even gave their lives as they fought on. However, it was no use, they were obstructed by the power from that treasure as their power and life force was stripped away from them.

  Qin Wentian’s body involuntarily trembled. Many of these memories were soundless, there were only a few fragments with sound in them. He had no way to know everything that happened exactly. When he saw Qin Yuanfeng’s blood transforming into rivers, flowing out on the ground, the power being plundered away, when he saw Qin Yuanfeng’s strength and supreme law energy from his rune bone being forcibly ripped out, when he saw Qin Yuanfeng’s flesh lacerated with so many wounds, when he saw that even Qin Yuanfeng’s memories were transformed into light, being stolen away……An extremely overwhelming killing intent burst out from Qin Wentian.

  But at this moment, Qin Wentian saw his father Qin Yuanfeng laughing maniacally. This wasn’t a laughter born from despair. Before everything could be plundered, a brilliant beam of light flashed as his body self-detonated, disintegrating into dust and smoke. After which, this memory ended. Since there was no more Qin Yuanfeng, how could there still be more memories?

  "NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Qin Wentian roared in rage, his thunderous voice shaking the heavens. He inclined his head, as his eyes reddened. His killing intent soared up to the sky, terrifying to the extreme.

  That life of legend, that life filled with countless tribulations, that life of loneliness, that life of heroism.

  Was all of this, truly the end?

  "No, there are still more memories. Father didn’t die. He must still be alive." Qin Wentian clenched his fists, filled with an intense determination. In those memories, he wasn’t even born yet, he knew that the self-explosion he saw was only because his father wanted to destroy everything. In fact, even his father’s cultivation might have been destroyed but there was one thing he could be sure of - his father is still alive.

  In the past, a memory he saw then was still fresh in his mind. His parents were together, hugging him, giving him their everything. There must still be more to the story, in a lifetime where his father lived again!
