"That person is ... Uncle's father" Liu Yang's words all on the spot, for they never imagined that the former patriarch of the Ling clan would be someone who conspired with the Remnants.
"Liu Yang, could you give me any proof of this?" Ling Xi was not believing what he was hearing, he could not believe that his father, someone who had always cared for the clan would become a traitor. Ling Xi was struggling not to get angry with these words, even if it was spoken by his son-in-law.
"Uncle, I can not show any proof of this, but if you want to find out if it's true or not, just wait for the Remnants to finish completing the tenth secret realm and achieve their goal. It will only be another thirty years at the most before the third level is completed.
Or uncle can do it the easy way, which is to ask the old man about it, but I do not think that's a good idea, because the uncle still has his wife, daughters, and granddaughter to care for. "
Liu Yang could not reveal that he had a power that allowed him to look through the objects and see the information that no one could see. This would bring a great calamity to him and his family.
"Alright, I'll wait ..." Ling Xi's face was extremely sad and desolate, Liu Yang's words left him deeply tormented. For he never imagined that his father would become someone who would betray his own clan and kill his own grandson.
"Darling…"
"Honey, it's okay. I'm just too shocked by these revelations, I'm coming back first ... "Ling Xi came out of the private hall and disappeared after using the spatial distortion.
"Boy, are you really sure that my father-in-law is a traitor?"
"Yes, I'm quite sure, although I can not tell you why I know that."
"All right, younger sister, you and your husband should be preparing for the worst, for it is very likely that in our clans there will also be traitors"
"Yes, big sister, we're leaving too. Until another day "
"Thanks for the visit"
"Boy, I hope you take care of Hanying and Guiying while we're gone."
"Auntie, do not worry about them, nothing would happen to them while I'm around."
"I believe in your words. Darling, let's go "
"Sister-in-law, boy, we'll meet another time." The couple bowed and left.
"Boy, I hope you can take care of my precious daughter and granddaughter during these times of chaos"
"Aunt, as I said before, I will not let any of my women and children get hurt. Besides, n.o.body knows I'm at level 1000 and rank 10 besides you. This can help when it's time to fight."
"All right, take care of yourself. I need to go to the meeting, I hope my husband does not do anything stupid ... "
"I believe this can not happen ... Uncle has already made a mess." The moment Liu Yang finished speaking, he disappeared from the scene.
The matriarch was frightened by the words and the sudden disappearance of Liu Yang, she understood what her husband had done something he should not, she started to get worried and used the Ring of Lovers, but the item did not work, this proved that Ling Xi had removed the ring.
She became desperate and used the s.p.a.ce Distortion to search for her husband, the matriarch and her husband had a skill that allowed them to feel each other's presence, the closer they were, the greater the presence. The matriarch used this ability to try to find her husband more quickly.
...
In some isolated place of the Xiao clan, five people were in place, the two couples of the family Ling and Ling Xi. The five of them were staring at each other.
"Father, tell me, are you conspiring with the Remnants?" Ling Xi asked in a trembling voice. This question surprised the other four, for they never imagined that Ling Xi would ask such a question.
"Brother, what kind of question is this? Are you doubting our father? You insinuating that he took part in the death of my son, his own grandson?" Ling Li could not stand it and started shouting, he was not believing what his big brother was talking about.
"Son, did you bring us here just to ask me that?" The old man asked Ling Xi with a solemn face.
"Yes"
"Son, before you answer that question, could you answer one thing?"
"What question?"
"Son, are you proud of your wife's achievements? Or do you feel good about being someone who is in a lower position than a woman? "
"Dad, what are you asking?"
"Son, just answer me"
"Of course I feel proud of my wife's achievements, for her achievements are also my achievements, we both share that. Xiao Zi always says that if I was not with her, she would never have achieved the current achievements. I have always been by her side and sharing her burden.
In the Nine Worlds, custom is patriarchy, where man is the most important and holds more power, but after spending these last three hundred years with Xiao Zi, I began to realize many things, one of which was the difficulty of the patriarchs of others clan or the elders of the Xiao clan, accept Xiao Zi as leader, although she is much stronger, clever and talented than many of them. These men could not accept a woman in a position equal to theirs, even if she were stronger in every way.
Xiao Zi endured all this and managed to become one of the great matriarchs of the clan Xiao and the leader of the Mercantile Alliance after much struggle and pressure the other clans, in the end, all could only accept her because Xiao Zi was the most qualified person for this. Xiao Zi always thanked me for being by her side and never forsaking her.
So I am grateful to have a strong wife like Xiao Zi, and I will never regret having married her. The only thing I regret is that I have not helped Xiao Zi much more, and have support more of her burden.
Dad, you asked me if I'm proud to be in a lower position than a woman, right? I say that I am proud because the woman above me has fought twice more and has had twice as much determination to get where she has arrived. This proves her willingness to fight and not give up.
And I'm even prouder that this woman is my precious wife with whom I have two beautiful daughters."
Each word of Ling Xi was spoken of his heart, contained every emotion he felt during the nearly three hundred years he spent beside the matriarch. Each moment of the two together was turned into words, but there were still millions of things he could not speak for there was no way to describe the emotions he felt when he saw his wife's smile after a long day at work.
"Son, is that your answer?"
"Yes"
"Son, your thinking is different from mine. This must be because of the fact that I've always been at the top and you're not. Son, one day you will understand my words"
"Dad, did you kill your own grandson cause it? Just because a woman controls a clan? Father, you must know that over the years, in the history of the Nine Worlds, there were thousands of leaders who were super powerful women without comparison"
"I did not kill my own grandson, he who killed himself, he was weak and useless. I spent hundreds of years' efforts to train him, and he died so pathetically. I can not imagine him being my grandson, my two sons are so good, but my grandson is useless, this is a waste.
Son, this may be true, but in my generation there was none, but in the present generation there is only your wife. But in the end, it's just her, there's no other. Son, one day you will understand that a woman is not meant to control a clan or lead an organization, even if she is the most appropriate person. You will see when the time comes, before that, live well or die like any other person."The old man's words were like blades cutting Ling Xi's heart, he never imagined that such a thing could happen, his father, the person who always cared for him and cared for the clan, became a heartless person who would kill his own grandson.
The same was true for Ling Li and his mother, they could not believe what they were seeing, the old man they were familiar with would never say something like that, they immediately thought there was something wrong.
"Dad, what happened to you? How did you become like this? "Ling Li was startled by the scene.
"Son, you should ask your wife to know the answer"
