How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 177 - 0174 Background and the Insect

Chapter 177: Chapter 0174: Background and the Insect Chapter 177 -0174: Background and the Insect Leaving the Chu Family.

Chen Yu did not tarry a moment, heading straight for the Chen Family in Xiangyang City.

Inside the hall.

The return of Chen Yu, a true disciple of the Yunyue Sect, was met by the family’s high-ranking members, including the Chen Family Patriarch clad in plain clothes, all personally accompanying him.

But this time.

The reverence in the eyes of the family’s upper echelons was more than sufficient, while the warmth was much less than before, with a vague sense of deliberate distancing.

Family Head Chen Tianwei and others, when faced with Chen Yu’s gaze, had a trace of strangeness and avoidance.

This made Chen Yu think of the situation when he visited the Chu Family.

At that time, the Chu Family Ancestor did not meet him in person but was observing in secret.

Chen Yu’s spiritual senses, superior to an ordinary Postnatal Qi Transformation, had naturally not missed the Chu Family Ancestor’s movements.

“Clan Leader, uncles, you all must be aware of my half-year agreement with Lv Tiezu, right?”

Chen Yu took a sip of tea, smiling calmly.

“Yu’er, regarding this matter, we too heard about it recently when Ying’er came back!”

Family Head Chen Tianwei smiled awkwardly.

Father Chen and Mother Chen, however, showed faces full of worry and concern.

“Yu’er, are you really the murderer who killed Lv Santong?”

Mother Liu Wen couldn’t help asking.

Chen Yu’s gaze, however, meticulously scrutinized his father Chen Tiande and mother Liu Wen.

Enhancing his perception with the mysterious heart.

He found that both of his parents were very ordinary people of the secular world.

“Dad, Mom, with Lv Tiezu’s tyranny, does it really matter whether I am the murderer or not?”

Chen Yu did not answer directly.

Upon hearing this.

The faces of Father Chen and Mother Chen turned somewhat pale, and their breathing became more rapid.

In front of so many clan members, Chen Yu naturally wouldn’t mention the true details of the event; that escape plan, besides himself and his master, must not be known to a third party.

“I came back this time mainly to see you, Dad, and Mom.”

Chen Yu rose quickly, his calm gaze sweeping across the high-ranking members of the Chen Family.

Family Head Chen Tianwei and others did not dare to meet his gaze, feeling somewhat guilty.

Ignoring these people.

Chen Yu took his parents back to his private estate.

Watching Chen Yu and his parents leave, the high-ranking clan elders of the Chen Family wore faces of regret, lamenting.

“Chen Yu’s return this time, it seems a bit like he’s preparing for the worst?”

“Alas.

Having provoked Lv Tiezu, the top figure of the three Sects, no matter how exceptional he is, he won’t escape the palm of a Guiyuan Realm powerhouse.”

…

In a chamber within Chen Yu’s private estate.

The family of three conversed late into the night by candlelight.

“This visit home, on one hand, was to ensure Dad and Mom are settled well…”

Chen Yu began slowly.

If his escape plan fails and he dies at the hands of Lv Tiezu, then perhaps there would still be a slim chance of survival for his parents.

In the world of sects, grudges mostly did not involve the secular.

This was a taboo.

But once Chen Yu successfully escaped, it would likely provoke Lv Tiezu’s rage.

At that time.

Not just Lv Tiezu’s lineage but also people like Guardian Shangguan and Palace Master Fu of the Bone Demon Palace, wielding immense power, could, with a few underlings attempting to curry favor, implicate Chen Yu’s parents.

Regarding the arrangement of Father Chen and Mother Chen, Chen Yu had discussed it with his master, Elder Mao Zhang.

Once the plan was set in motion.

Father Chen and Mother Chen would be properly settled by Elder Mao in a secluded and isolated location where they could live out their lives in peace.

For a Sect Elder, it was but a simple effort.

Subsequently.

Chen Yu then explained the arrangement plan to his parents.

Father Chen and Mother Chen wore expressions of deep sorrow, affected by the notion that Chen Yu was preparing for the worst.

Chen Yu sighed inwardly, for all details of the plan had to be kept absolutely secret, making it impossible to be completely honest with his parents.

“Rest assured, Dad and Mom, I have at least a fifty percent chance of overcoming this calamity.

Once successful, I will be parted from you for some time, and I hope you will take care of your health.”

Chen Yu tried to reassure them.

“Yu’er, are you really confident that you can survive this disaster?”

Mother Liu Wen’s tearful eyes conveyed a glimmer of hope.

Although she understood.

Perhaps, this was a benevolent lie from Chen Yu.

“Without a doubt.”

Chen Yu nodded earnestly, easing his parents’ concerns slightly.

Next, the second matter.

Chen Yu thought of that absurd dream but didn’t know how to broach the subject.

Just then.

Father Chen and Mother Chen exchanged glances, seemingly having made a decision.

“Yu’er, as you are nearly sixteen, you may be parted from us for a while, or even forever.

There are some things we should tell you.”

Mother Liu Wen took a deep breath, resolutely making a decision.

With that said.

Mother Chen took out a piece of a jade pendant that she wore close to her body.

The jade was crystal clear and flawless white, but it was incomplete, one side clearly showing signs of being broken off.

Its material seemed like jade indeed, yet it emitted a hint of a mysterious metallic sheen.

Thump, thump!

Thump, thump!

The half pendant, upon nearing, caused Chen Yu’s mysterious heart to beat abnormally a few times.

“What is this?”

Chen Yu took the half pendant, noticing that on one side, the character “Yu” was engraved.

Yu?

Chen Yu’s heart stirred slightly, could this word be related to his name and identity?

Suddenly.

His previous speculations and unease grew stronger.

“Yu’er, in fact, we are not your biological parents.

More than a decade ago, while your mother and I were out on an excursion, a wounded man suddenly appeared by our side.

He handed you and this jade pendant to us, and in an instant, he was gone.”

Father Chen laid it out plainly.

“Dad, Mom, you…”

Chen Yu’s heart was greatly shaken, this “truth” coincided with that bizarre dream.

He had always wondered.

Why had that mysterious heart chosen to descend on Yunyue Sect of all places, select him, and then integrate seamlessly with him?

If that dream had only appeared once, that would have been the end of it.

But that dream had recurred multiple times, relating to the mysterious heart, and it made Chen Yu feel uneasy.

He did not want to accept the “speculation” in his heart.

However.

Father Chen’s current confession shattered Chen Yu’s self-deception.

“Because your dad and I have never been able to conceive.

When that mysterious man brought you to us, we decided to raise you as if you were our own son…”

Tears glistened in Liu Wen’s eyes.

“As for this half of the jade pendant, the man said that it should be handed over to you when you came of age.”

Mother Chen explained.

Chen Yu extended his hand to touch the half of the white, flawless jade pendant and felt a sudden clarity in his spiritual platform.

As if a warm spring nourished and cleansed deep within his heart.

With his current spiritual power, he felt as though the jade pendant contained an endless ocean, deep and unfathomable.

Chen Yu was certain.

This half of the jade pendant must be an extraordinary treasure, far more advanced than the Ice Heart Tears.

“Your mother, originally weak and sickly, has been invulnerable to disease since she wore this half of the jade pendant, looking much younger than others her age.”

“Now, your mother is returning it to you, perhaps to help Yu’er confirm the mystery of your own identity.”

Liu Wen’s eyes were moist as she helped Chen Yu wear the jade pendant close to his body.

From his parents, Chen Yu felt profound love, along with a hint of loss.

After all.

They had raised Chen Yu for over a decade, yet suddenly one day, they had to reveal the mystery of his origins to him.

“Dad, Mom.

Rest assured, no matter what my background is, in my heart, you’re no different from my own parents.”

Chen Yu wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes, more serious than ever before.

Could he sever the parental grace of a dozen years?

Mr.

and Mrs.

Chen Tiande, though not his biological parents, had given him kindness greater than the heavens.

…

Late in the night.

Chen Yu sat cross-legged in his room, touching the half of the jade pendant, his gaze flickering.

Previously.

He had been reluctant to trace the so-called mystery of his identity, preferring to believe he was indeed the biological son of Mr.

and Mrs.

Chen Tiande.

However.

The couple in his dreams, with deep concern in their eyes, especially the mysterious woman who sacrificed herself to enable the Chen Yu baby’s existence.

Such selfless maternal love, given in silence, resonated deeply in Chen Yu’s heart.

If the scenes in his dream were real.

Chen Yu’s biological parents might not have provided him with nurturing, but the sacrifices they made could be greater than the nurturing itself.

Involuntarily.

Chen Yu developed a bit of interest in the mystery of his origins.

But immediately.

Chen Yu chuckled bitterly to himself; there was no need to ponder further before resolving the looming disaster facing him now.

In the cold light of the night’s moon.

While Chen Yu was contemplating, he suddenly felt a slight itch and stirring somewhere on his body.

“Eh!”

Connected in spirit, Chen Yu sensed consciousness from the other end, his face brightening with joy.

Whoosh!

An iron-gray insect, the size of a thumb, shot out from his sleeve and landed on Chen Yu’s hand, affectionately caressing him.

It was the awakened Iron Moon Strange Insect.

Chen Yu took a close look and saw that, while the Iron Moon Strange Insect’s size had not changed much, its surface shimmered with faint silver spots that gave off a lustrous moon-like sheen.

Moreover.

There were a few blood-red crystal membranes remaining on its body which rapidly peeled away as it squirmed.

The aura emanating from the insect had clearly surpassed a significant level; the power fluctuations it released invisibly were even more potent than a common Postnatal Qi Transformation.

“How strong is this insect’s combat power now?”

Chen Yu looked forward with anticipation.

As usual, Chen Yu let the Iron Moon Strange Insect patrol around the estate and even enter every corner underground to check.

At a certain moment.

The Iron Moon Strange Insect, joyfully frolicking, transmitted an unusual image.

Hmm?

Chen Yu focused on that image, his expression becoming stern; as long as it’s within five miles, he could share the images and sounds transmitted by the Iron Moon Strange Insect.

At the periphery of the estate’s orchard.

Swoosh!

A man and a woman drifted in and stared at the main house in the center of the estate.

The man was a blue-robed youth, around thirty, standing with his hands behind his back, an air of arrogance on his face.

The woman appeared to be in her twenties, dressed in a dark green gown, and she was somewhat charming and beautiful.

“Hmph, that kid will eventually die at the hands of Lv Tiezu; is there a need for us two Postnatal Qi Transformed experts to take action?”

The blue-robed youth was visibly reluctant.

“Who asked him to be the murderer of the Young Sect Master?

The Sect Master, after investigation, has confirmed Chen Yu as the prime suspect, and this youngster possesses great fortune that must be terminated early to prevent future troubles,” said the green-robed beauty with a hint of indolence in her voice.

The man and woman casually strolled towards the center of the estate’s courtyard.

This scene.

Was shared by Chen Yu’s senses, darkening his expression.

The “Young Sect Master” mentioned by the two was naturally Yi Yunfei from the Water Moon Sect.

That Water Moon Sect Master had still not been reassured by the calamity that Lv Tiezu would bring to Chen Yu, dispatching two Postnatal Qi Transformed experts for an assassination attempt.

As for the death of Yi Yunfei, why it was pinned on him, Chen Yu guessed it straight away.

At the Blood Sky Hall, while escaping with Chen Ying’er, Chen Yu had used an “Ice Split Ball” to block their enemies, leaving behind that minor detail, a flaw in their escape.
