Chapter 640: 640
”Father! How . . . how are you?” Shui QianRou was startled and she grabbed onto her father's arm, shaking it as she wept .
Shui ManKong's maniacal laughter stopped abruptly and he panted heavily for a long while before regaining his cool . He then turned to look at his daughter . ”Rou'er, you must not let your mother know about this! You have to hide it from her forever! She will not be able to endure such a blow and would definitely go crazy . Do you understand? Your brother is still alive and was taken away by Justice for treatment!”
”I know what I should say, but Father, what should we do? It seems like it still isn't the right time . . . ” Shui QianRou nodded her head in agreement . She originally intended to hide it from her father as well but she was unable to do so . Although she truly wanted to take revenge for her brother as well, she knew that . . .
”I . . . have my own plans!” Shui ManKong looked at his daughter before stroking her on the head indulgently, ”Good daughter, don't cry . ”
Shui QianRou's tears streamed down her cheeks .
”I originally intended to engage you to HuangFu Jun after your return,” Shui ManKong said with a self-mocking laugh, ”but it seems like there isn't a need to do so any longer . Rou'er, you are in love with Ling Tian, right?”
Shui QianRou's face flushed red and she was awkwardly silent .
Shui ManKong smiled at her indulgently . ”I also know that that darn HuangFu Jun would never be a match for my Rou'er with his horrendous character . However, I only wanted to gather some support to deal with your two uncles . Now that our family has completely fractured from within, why would I still sacrifice the happiness of my only daughter? Don't worry, I will certainly not stop the two of you . After the generational battle, it can be considered that you have given your all for the family and you can go back to Heavenly Star to find Ling Tian . No matter where you go, you must always remember to be happy . Alright?”
”FATHER!” Shui QianRou cried out and dove into her father's embrace .
Shui ManKong patted his daughter on the head and wanted to let out a sigh . But after a long while, he did not let out the sigh and swallowed it down instead . Looking at a direction where Shui QianRou wouldn't be able to see his face, Shui ManKong's eyes glowed with a thick killing intent . . .
This night which was supposed to be a silent one was destined to be thrown into chaos . With Heavenly Star's lord of ma.s.sacre arriving at Heavenly Wind, he would definitely carry a storm of blood with him .
While the members of the Yu Family and Beyond Heavens were probably drifting in the sea and would only reach Heavenly Wind a couple of days later, it was destined to be a sleepless night for the Shui Family today . After Shui ManKong sent Shui QianRou back to rest, he walked out of the secret chamber and stood in the pavilion alone . He looked at the starry night and basked under the stars for a whole night without moving a single inch . It was as though he was thinking about something or he was trying to accompany someone . The dew drenched his s.h.i.+rt and hair as this family head of the number one family stood silently in the night . . .
There were plenty of others who had a sleepless night like him as well, including Shui ManCheng . Shui ManCheng also sat in a daze for a full night with the grief of losing his son . As for Shui ManShu and Shui ManPing, they gathered those who had just returned from Heavenly Star and a.n.a.lyzed every single event in detail . They hoped that they would be able to come to the conclusion that things weren't the worst that they could be . . .
As for Elder Shui WuBo of the Shui Family, he had a nice and cozy sleep .
The sun was up and the continent became busy again .
The hottest topic of discussion was undoubtedly the sudden appearance of the three Sky Alliance Heads . Their sudden arrival to Jade River City and current disappearance scared all the aristocratic families in the city to the point they did not dare to even leave their houses .
The second hottest topic of discussion was the conflict between Song Kuang and Tian ZhiYi from the Sky Alliance . Song Kuang and his 25 followers had disappeared mysteriously with their life or death unknown . . .
Another strange matter was the fact that both the members of the HuangFu and Song Families were weaving around Jade River City with their faces solemn as though they were about to have a huge clas.h.!.+ The atmosphere in the Jade River City was immediately in a state of tension .
Thankfully, both families were able to restrain themselves .
When it was noon, news began to spread from some unknown source that it wasn't only young n.o.ble Song Kuang from the Song Family who disappeared . There were plenty of others who disappeared along with him . For example, the second young n.o.ble of the Song Family, the illegitimate son of Song TianQiao, and the concubine who Song TianQiao doted on the most .
