Chapter 332 The night before
The night before the red sun sets in the sky.
At the top of Huoyun Peak, there is Tianhuo Zuiming Mansion.
Wei Haolong stood in front of Tianhuo Zuiming Mansion, looking at the towering and majestic mansion, Wei Haolong's palms couldn't help but become sweaty.
This is the residence of his father, Tianhuo elder Wei Kaicheng. In Huoyun instant, his status is only lower than that of the supreme leader, the Immortal Wusheng Palace. It can be said that one person is inferior to ten thousand people.
Ever since he could remember, he had been afraid of this majestic mansion, because here he would only feel endless pressure from his father. As long as he did anything that made him unhappy, Elder Tianhuo's brows would frown, like a scabbard. The blade cut into his heart one after another.
Ever since Wei Haolong appeared on the Heavenly Fire Ranking Arena wearing women's clothing, this mansion seemed to have been closed to him forever. Elder Tianhuo also did not summon Wei Haolong, as if he had abandoned his son. Wei Haolong knew that he had embarrassed Elder Tianhuo, but he would never regret what he did back then.
Therefore, the father and son have not spoken to each other since the Heavenly Fire Ranking.
And tonight, just the night before the red sun sets in the sky, Wei Haolong received the edict from Elder Tianhuo.
He took a deep breath, opened the door that was both familiar and unfamiliar, and walked into Tianhuo Zhouming Mansion. As soon as he entered the door, Elder Tianhuo's powerful voice rang in his ears: "Come here."
As soon as the sound came out, the location of the sound immediately appeared in Wei Haolong's mind. It was a place he had never set foot in before. He followed the prompts of the voice until he reached the depths of the mansion and entered a secret room. He grew up in Tianhuo Zhuming Mansion. He was familiar with all the rooms in the mansion, but he didn't know this place.
The secret room was lit brightly by the earth dragon fire. The layout of the secret room was very simple, with only a futon and a long brown table.
Elder Tianhuo stood in front of the long table with his back to Wei Haolong, his back still looking majestic.
Wei Haolong struggled again and again, and finally shouted: "Dad..."
Elder Tianhuo did not turn around and said calmly: "Haolong, have you hated your father very much over the years?"
Wei Haolong was confused by such a question. For so many years, Elder Tianhuo only had unquestionable orders and requirements for him, and never asked him how he felt.
Wei Haolong didn't know how to answer for a while, and finally said reluctantly: "There is no reason for children to hate their father."
"But dad has never liked you, you should know that."
Wei Haolong smiled bitterly: "Of course I know."
"Do you know why?"
Wei Haolong said: "It may be that my son has failed his father's expectations over the years and has embarrassed him."
"It's one thing."
Elder Tianhuo said: "But it's not the main thing. The main reason why dad doesn't like you is because he didn't want your mother to give birth to you at all. If it weren't for you, your mother would still stay with me and she wouldn't be in trouble. to that end.”
Hearing this, Wei Haolong was confused and angry.
"Why did Dad say this? If you hadn't thought that it was useless to have a daughter, you melted another female fetus alive with heavenly fire. How could it have made my mother so heartbroken that she got mad? After that, you suppressed her in a cave for hundreds of years. , it was you who caused my mother to do this, how could you have the right to say such things!"
Hearing Wei Haolong's voice gradually losing control, Elder Tianhuo became abnormally silent.
Elder Tianhuo said solemnly: "I told you this back then because I wanted you to realize that your life was hard-earned, so that you could learn to cherish it so that the sacrifices your mother and sister made would not be in vain!"
Then he took a long sigh and said slowly: "Back then, when I was young and vigorous, I devoted myself wholeheartedly to the development of the Sky Fire Pain Technique, and I did not hesitate to draw the Sky Fire into my body and burn myself. Although I successfully developed the Sky Fire Pain Technique, I was also struck by it. The poison of heavenly fire that will last a lifetime. When your mother was pregnant with you two, you were both born with the deadly poison of heavenly fire because of me."
"As you grow in your mother's womb, the poison of heavenly fire is slowly transferred to your mother. But I discovered that if your mother gives birth to you all, the poison of heavenly fire will all accumulate in her body. She is a female. If you don't cultivate enough, you will definitely be burned to death by the poison of heavenly fire. My original intention was to melt you siblings with heavenly fire, so as to keep your mother safe. "
"It's a pity that the child is always the mother's heart. Even if your mother is poisoned and dies, she still insists on saving you siblings."
"But I don't allow it!"
Elder Tianhuo suddenly roared.
"It's okay for me, Wei Kaicheng, to have no heirs, but I can't live without Zhu Yue because of this! There are thousands of female cultivators in the world, but there is only one Zhu Yue."
Elder Tianhuo said regretfully: "Your sister was melted by heavenly fire without permission after I knocked your mother out with medicine. The original intention was to melt you siblings together with heavenly fire. However, after melting her, it may be because of the relationship with the fetus' heart. Life is connected, your mother woke up halfway. After that, Zhuyue threatened her with death, and I never had the chance to take action against you."
Elder Tianhuo said this and moved away, revealing the spiritual tablet on the long brown table, which had the name of his beloved daughter Wei Ruyan written on it.
He touched the coffin with a trembling hand and said, "I'm sorry for your sister. I've been giving her a ring for more than three hundred years, but I still can't get rid of the guilt in my heart. But if I had to choose again, I would still do this." Do."
"From now on, only you will grow in Zhuyue's belly. A share of the poison of sky fire will not kill Zhuyue. However, because of your sister's death, Zhuyue was too sad, and with this share of the poison of sky fire, Zhuyue was born Soon after, the poisonous fire attacked my heart, and it became like this. I have tried countless methods over the past hundred years, but I still can't cure Zhuyue."
"In order to suppress the Skyfire poison in Zhuyue's body and prevent her from hurting herself, Dad had to suppress her in a cave far away from Huoyun Shanna."
When Elder Tianhuo said this, he finally turned to look at Wei Haolong. Wei Haolong was already in tears. He didn't expect that the ultimate source of Madam Tianhuo's madness was because of him.
"This is why Dad has always disliked you, because Dad feels that it is because of your existence that I lost my Taoist partner who has been with me for hundreds of years."
Elder Tianhuo sighed: "But Dad has always known that it is wrong to think so. You are innocent. The source of everything is Dad. You can break Dad's formation and bring your mother out of the cave, which means that you have lived up to the sacrifices made by your mother and your sister. You are Dad's only and outstanding son!"
Wei Haolong clenched his fists and said in a trembling voice: "Dad... How can I... save my mother..."
At this point, Elder Tianhuo's eyes flashed.
"Tomorrow, the sun is setting. The master promised my father that he would use the Nascent Soul Regeneration Technique to heal your mother after he breaks through the Nascent Soul. However, the master's breakthrough to the Nascent Soul tomorrow will not be as simple and smooth as imagined. The master has long noticed that under the calm surface of Huoyun Shanshan, we father and son must work together tomorrow and do everything we can to clear the obstacles for the master."
"Only in this way can your mother have a chance to recover! Do you understand?"
Wei Haolong's eyes were firm, and he said in a sonorous voice: "The child will definitely live up to your trust!"
