"Whether you are outstanding or clumsy, you and Xiaochi are my children, Yun Tianyi. I just hope that you will be well and grow up healthily and happily. What's more, what use is the origin of wood to me? How could I recognize you for the origin of wood?"
Xi Yue listened in a daze, and a cold smile slowly appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Yes, the origin of wood is useless to Daddy, but it is useful to him."
Although she was smiling, the girl looked as if she was about to cry at any moment.
Yun Tianyi looked shocked and distressed. He didn't know what had happened and why his daughter, who was fine in the morning, had become like this.
Thinking of what she said about the origin of wood, Yun Tianyi's heart moved and asked: "Yuer, did Ji Mingyu bully you? Tell daddy, and daddy will definitely help you."
Xi Yue closed her eyes and asked softly, "Dad, do you know that Ji Mingyu was poisoned by the Ice Prison Cold Poison?"
Yun Tianyi nodded and said, “Ji Mingyu is the youngest of the four God Lords. Long, long ago, he was only a God Lord, but the second priest of the temple predicted that he was the most likely candidate to become the God Emperor.”
"At that time, other gods were jealous of him and joined forces with the temple's high priest to plot against him. He was killed by the demon lord of the demon world and was poisoned by the Flowing Marrow Ice Prison. Originally, it would be impossible for him to survive for more than a thousand years after being poisoned, but the temple's second priest found a way to prolong his life, so he can survive until now."
As Yun Tianyi spoke, he looked at his daughter's expressionless face and said softly, "Yuer, do you know that the Wood Origin is the only way to get rid of the Flowing Marrow Ice Prison? So you think that Ji Mingyu approached you just to covet your Wood Origin?"
Although he didn't like Ji Mingyu, Yun Tianyi didn't want his daughter to be sad, so he quickly said, "Yuer, listen to me. Ji Mingyu did look for the origin of wood, but your father knows him better. He is cold and ruthless, but also proud. He would never do anything behind someone's back. It's impossible that he did what happened in Tianyi Valley..."
Xi Yue suddenly interrupted Yun Tianyi and said in a hoarse voice: "Dad, do you know what Ji Mingyu's method of prolonging his life is?"
Yun Tianyi was stunned, hesitated for a moment and said: "I am not very clear about the specific method, but I know that the poison of the Flowing Marrow Ice Prison can only be alleviated by separating the soul."
"But once the soul and body are separated, Ji Mingyu's cultivation will drop greatly. However, his cultivation has not dropped in recent years. On the contrary, it has far surpassed other gods. Even my father is almost no match for him. In addition, he falls into a coma for decades every once in a while. I guess it is because the second priest of the temple has exhausted his lifespan to cut his flesh and bones and reshape his clone so that part of his soul can be transferred to the clone to experience the cycle of life, aging, sickness and death, so as to alleviate the pain brought by the Flowing Marrow Ice Prison."
“Before his death, the second priest predicted that the origin of wood would reappear in the human world in a lower plane. So Ji Mingyu’s clone traveled through the worlds, not only to alleviate the pain of the Flowing Marrow Ice Prison, but also to find the trace of the origin of wood.”
"It is indeed the incarnation's travel through the ages, and it is indeed for the origin of wood?" Xi Yue murmured in a low voice, her eyes full of sadness and despair, and she could no longer hold back the tears that rolled down her cheeks.
Yun Tianyi saw his daughter crying sadly, and her eyes were no longer as strong and energetic as usual, leaving only the pain of a dead heart. He was very anxious, "Yuer, what happened? Did Ji Mingyu's clone have something to do with you..." (To be continued)
