“Amitabha, the Celestial Immortal can see through the secrets of heaven, I admire him greatly.”
“Back when I was at Hanshan Temple, my master often advised me to let go of my obsessions, forget my hatred, and devote myself to Buddhism.”
"I believed it at first."
“It wasn’t until my master died because of his devotion to Buddhism that I realized it was all a lie.”
"Therefore, this humble monk is willing to use the thirty-six forbidden techniques of the Rakshasa Hall as payment to ask the Celestial Immortal about the secrets of my origins."
"Twelve years ago, the Eastern Expedition to the Outer Heavens failed. How exactly did my father die, and who is my mother?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's faces showed curiosity.
The Eastern Expedition of Tianwaitian twelve years ago was a major event that shocked Beili, and the name of Tianwaitian leader Ye Dingzhi has been a taboo ever since.
However, the reason for the failure of this eastern expedition has never been clearly explained in the martial arts world.
At that time, because of the Tianwaitian's eastward expedition, many other foreign tribes also took the opportunity to attack the border of Beili.
Although the various factions in Beili joined forces to resist, the momentum of Tianwaitian was clearly stronger.
Some say that the Tianwaitian expedition failed because its leader, Ye Dingzhi, died, leaving the sect leaderless and forced to retreat to Tianwaitian.
However, some say that Ye Dingzhi was highly skilled in martial arts and single-handedly stormed into Tianqi City, almost killing the Emperor of Beili.
No one knows how the crisis in Tianqi City was resolved or how Ye Dingzhi died.
Thinking of this, everyone turned their attention to Su Chen, wanting to know what happened back then.
Su Chen nodded and said, "As you wish."
Based on his observation, the system quickly responded:
"Successfully told Wuxin's fortune."
"Congratulations, host, on obtaining the divine-level spear technique, 'Mystic Ice Spear Technique'."
Su Chen's heart stirred; he vaguely remembered that this spear technique came from a very powerful fantasy world.
If this "Mysterious Ice Spear Technique" is indeed the spear technique he remembers, its power is probably no less than that of the "Divine Sword Thunder Control True Technique".
Thinking of this, Su Chen showed a hint of satisfaction, then quickly regained his composure and said:
"I've figured it out."
"The Eastern Expedition of the Outer Heavens twelve years ago was closely related to your mother; in fact, it could be said that it was caused by her."
"Your mother is Yi Wenjun, the daughter of Yi Bu, the sect leader of the Shadow Sect, and also the current Consort Xuan."
"She was born with exceptional beauty and an extraordinary temperament; she was the kind of woman who would be unforgettable at first glance."
"She won the top spot on the Beili Rouge Ranking for two consecutive years, but after marrying into the palace, she stopped participating in the Rouge Ranking."
"She was also a pitiful person."
"In order to consolidate the position of Yingzong, Yibu betrothed her to Xiao Ruojin, the Prince of Jinyu at the time."
"Xiao Ruojin fell in love with her at first sight, and even after he ascended the throne, he still doted on her and made her a Consort Xuan."
"The two also had a son."
"It is one of the two princes who are most likely to inherit the throne, the Crimson Prince Xiao Yu."
"But Yi Wenjun always longed for freedom."
"She seized the opportunity to secretly leave the palace and come to the martial arts world she longed for."
"It was during her travels that she met your father, Ye Dingzhi."
"The two fell in love, built a hut at the foot of Hanshan Temple, and had a son named Ye Anshi, who is you."
Everyone in the hall was stunned by these words.
The unintentional mother is actually the current Consort Xuan?
Ye Dingzhi, the leader of the Outer Heaven Sect, actually cuckolded the Emperor of Beili?
This news is so shocking that it's almost unbelievable.
Xiao Se stared wide-eyed at Wu Xin in surprise.
He was a prince, and Wuxin was actually the son of Consort Xuan. Didn't that mean that the two of them were brothers?
Although they are not from the same parents, the blood relationship is still there.
In contrast, Wuxin and Chi Wang Xiao Yu are half-brothers, which makes the plot quite complicated.
Wu Xin herself never expected that her background would be so complicated.
It turned out that his mother had not passed away, but was in the palace, and he also had a half-brother.
"May I ask, Celestial Immortal, since Mother had already left the palace, why did she return?"
"Furthermore, why did you say that the Eastern Expedition twelve years ago was caused by my mother?"
I had no intention of asking any further questions.
Although he had a premonition that things wouldn't be simple, he still longed to understand.
Su Chen took a sip of tea, pondered for a moment, and then slowly began to speak:
"Yi Wenjun is, after all, a mother."
"Although she deeply loved Ye Dingzhi, she always missed Xiao Yu, whom she hadn't seen for many years."
"So she decided to secretly return to Tianqi City, wanting to bring Xiao Yu out and raise him herself."
"Unexpectedly, Emperor Mingde, Xiao Ruojin, learned of the news in advance and sent people to imprison her in the palace."
"Although Yi Wenjun made a serious mistake, Emperor Mingde did not blame her because he loved her, but instead chose to forgive her."
"But Ye Dingzhi couldn't accept that his beloved had been taken away, and he was so angry that he almost went crazy."
"In order to win back Yi Wenjun, Ye Dingzhi returned to Tianwaitian, killed the old sect leader, and led many experts to attack Beili."
"This was the world-renowned 'Eastern Expedition'."
After Su Chen finished speaking, everyone's faces showed surprise.
It turns out that the cause of the Eastern Expedition was related to Yi Wenjun, and was entirely due to Ye Dingzhi's infatuation.
Among them, several women, including Ye Ruoyi, Sikong Qianluo, Tiannv Rui, Jiang Yuyan, and Ji Xue, developed a strong interest in the character "Yi Wenjun" in the story.
They were curious about just how beautiful Yi Wenjun was.
Not only did she top the Rouge Ranking for two consecutive years, but she also made two powerful figures, Emperor Xiao Ruojin of Beili and Ye Dingzhi, the leader of the Heavenly Outer Heaven Sect, both infatuated with her.
This is no ordinary emotional entanglement.
Despite being the ruler, Xiao Ruojin was able to tolerate Yi Wenjun leaving the palace without permission to marry and have children with someone else.
Ye Dingzhi even went so far as to use the power of his faction to attack the entire dynasty.
The two men's deep affection for her was clearly ingrained in their very bones.
Wu Xin suppressed his excitement and asked in a low voice, "I heard that during the Eastern Expedition, my father, Ye Dingzhi, fought his way to Tianqi City and almost killed the emperor. Why did he ultimately fail?"
Su Chen sighed softly, and looking at the curious gazes of the crowd, slowly said:
"This rumor is true."
"At that time, Ye Dingzhi had already entered the realm of divine travel and his demonic arts were invincible."
"Even if the top experts from the Imperial Observatory of the five major prisons in Beili joined forces, they would not be his match."
"On the Qingyun Terrace in the Imperial Palace, Ye Dingzhi was less than fifty steps away from Emperor Mingde, Xiao Ruojin."
"In the entire Beili region, only a handful of people, including Li Changsheng, Mo Yi, and Baili Dongjun, can stop Ye Dingzhi."
"Li Changsheng had long since gone into seclusion and his whereabouts were unknown."
"Mo Yi lives on a fairy mountain overseas and doesn't care about these mundane matters at all."
"Only Baili Dongjun remains."
"Bai Li Dongjun arrived at the critical moment and stopped Ye Dingzhi."
"But he was not Ye Dingzhi's enemy; on the contrary, he was one of his best brothers in life."
"Bai Li Dongjun stopped Ye Dingzhi not to protect the emperor, but for the sake of the millions of people in Beili."
"At that time, Beili was besieged by foreign tribes such as Beiman and Nanjue, and was suffering repeated defeats."
"If anything were to happen to the emperor, the entire Beili would collapse immediately."
"At that time, millions of people will become slaves of foreign tribes."
"A true hero is one who thinks of the country and its people."
"For the sake of the Beili Dynasty and the millions of people, Baili Dongjun chose to stop his good brother Ye Dingzhi."
"But he wouldn't let the emperor kill Ye Dingzhi either."
"After defeating Ye Ding, Baili Dongjun took him away from Tianqi City."
"It can be said that if Baili Dongjun hadn't intervened, Ye Dingzhi's plan might have actually succeeded."
"Because he also invited another top expert to help him."
"This person is also his close friend, the now renowned leader of the Five Great Sword Immortals of Beili—the Lone Sword Immortal Luo Qingyang."
"While Ye Dingzhi was fighting his way into the palace, Luo Qingyang also successfully rescued Yi Wenjun."
"Unfortunately, the appearance of Baili Dongjun prevented Ye Dingzhi from killing his love rival Xiao Ruojin, and he himself was seriously injured."
"Later, Baili Dongjun brought Ye Dingzhi, and Luo Qingyang brought Yi Wenjun. The two of them met at the foot of Hanshan Temple."
"At the same time, various sects in Beili Jianghu also learned of this matter and sent their experts to besiege Ye Dingzhi."
"Li Hanyi of Snow Moon City, Su Muyu of Dark River, Wang Rensun of Tianshan Sect, Luo Yulan of Chaowang Pavilion, Lei Qianting of Thunder Gate, Wen Leng of Wen Family..."
"These people are now all well-known figures in the martial arts world."
"And twelve years ago, even if they joined forces, they were no match for the heavily injured Ye Dingzhi."
"In the end, Ye Dingzhi died."
"If we are to find the murderer, perhaps we can only say it is your mother, Yi Wenjun."
