Chapter 1391 - Nirvana of the Heart and Soul (1/2)

Towards Yun Wuxin, Yun Che would always feel boundless love along with boundless guilt.

However within this guilt, there was something that had always comforted him… and that was the fact that Yun Wuxin had inherited a small part of his Evil God divine power and as a result, she possessed an innate talent towards the profound way that was extremely impressive, a talent that far outstripped anyone’s understanding. At the age of twelve, she had already become an Overlord on this lowly plane and her future was undoubtedly incomparably bright. Before too long, she would definitely surpass Feng Xue’er and cause the “legend” that he had created to reappear once more.

This was not only a form of consolation, it was also something he took great pride in as her father.

But today...

The extremely fortunate thing was that even though Yun Wuxin’s profound strength had completely dissipated, her profound veins did not receive any harm. Or perhaps even if they had been harmed, they had not been completely destroyed, so the current Yun Che could also repair them. Even though she had lost her profound strength, she could cultivate it once more. But… the innate talent she had that was enough to allow her to stare down at the rest of the world was gone.

It was gone forever.

His long dormant Evil God’s Profound Veins had been awakened. His profound strength, divine body, divine soul, and divine sense were recovering with every second that passed… but the price for everything had been his daughter’s future.

If he was able to give everything back to her, even if he would be crippled forever, he would definitely not hesitate in the slightest… Yet it just so happened that this was the one thing that he was unable to do.

His entire body was trembling as his heart convulsed and spasmed. His heart and soul had been thrown into complete and utter chaos and his gradually contorted fingers had gripped his skull until it had started to faintly change shape. Yet he did not notice anything… he did not even notice that Yun Wuxin had woken up, he did not notice her lightly opened eyes.

“Daddy…” Yun Wuxin lightly called out to her father as she looked at him. It was just that she was far too delicate and frail right now, so her voice was also as soft as cotton.

Yun Che’s entire body convulsed as his head jerked up. The moment his eyes met Yun Wuxin’s eyes, eyes which were as hazy as mist, he hurriedly sprang forward and using all the gentleness he could muster, he spoke in a still-hoarse voice, “Xin’er, you’ve woken up… You… Are you hungry right now… Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere…”

Yun Wuxin shook her head very lightly, “Daddy, why are you crying?”

“Eh?” It was only when he heard Yun Wuxin’s words that Yun Che felt the icy-cold traces of wetness on his face. He hurriedly extended a hand and wiped those traces of wetness away in a fluster as a faint smile appeared on his face, “I’m not, I’m not. How can it be possible for your Daddy to cry. It’s just that… It’s just that…”

Before he could even finish speaking, he had actually started choking up… No matter how hard he tried to control it or suppress it, he could not stop himself from choking up in tears.

“...” He turned his head away, his body and voice still trembling. He tried his hardest to regulate his emotions, yet he was simply unable to force himself to calm down. He could only speak in a pained voice, “Xin’er, you… Why did you… have to…”

“Daddy,” Yun Wuxin cut off the words that he had just said, an incomparably pure and beautiful smile spreading out on her pale white face, “you were so weak before, you didn’t make me feel secure at all. But from now on, I can finally be protected by Daddy as much as I want… Hee hee.”

“...” His heart and even his entire soul had been filled up with something that was far too warm. It was only after a long while that he could speak with much difficulty, “Daddy will… protect you for the rest of his life… If anyone dares to harm you… I… will definitely…”

He did not continue speaking nor could he continue even if he wanted to.

“Mnn!” Yun Wuxin responded with a lot of vigour. She had clearly just lost all of her profound strength and innate talent, yet her face was filled with happiness and satisfaction, “Then Daddy needs to first protect himself well… Wuuu, I’ve clearly just woken up… but I’m already feeling a little tired. Daddy looks really tired as well… Why don’t you also go to sleep, okay?”

Yun Che’s face was extremely pale and haggard… only, Yun Wuxin did not know that the level of her father’s power was very high, so he no longer needed to sleep.

“Alright…” Yun Che gave a soft nod of his head.

Yun Wuxin’s lips curved up softly and her eyes closed heavily. She tried to fight the feeling but her overly weak and frail body was unable to resist the sleepiness she felt. With a slight tremble of her eyelashes, she once again fell asleep.

“...” Yun Che breathed a sigh of relief but his chest heaved in an incomparably violent fashion.

As he silently stared at Yun Wuxin, he slowly stretched out a hand towards her sleeping face… just when he was about to touch it, however, his hand froze before suddenly jerking backwards.

This hand of his had been stained with countless sins, had touched an endless amount of darkness, had been dyed by an ocean of blood… and it had even personally robbed the innate talent of his very own daughter.

He withdrew his arm before soundlessly standing up and walking out of the room.

His eyes were murky and muddled.

Upon opening the door of the room, he realized that the sky had already gone dark at some unspecified point in time. Feng Xian’er stood in the corner of the courtyard, tears filled her beautiful eyes and the rims of those eyes were completely red. Upon seeing Yun Che, she hurriedly wiped the tears from her face and moved towards him, but her steps were extremely timid and overcautious...

“Young Master, I…” Feng Xian’er’s head dipped, she did not dare look Yun Che in the eye.

“There’s no need to say anything,” Yun Che did not even look at her, his eyes were dazed and his voice was powerless, “it wasn’t your fault.”

“I… I…” Yun Che’s emotionless voice threw Feng Xian’er’s heart into an even greater panic, “I really did not know the Lord Phoenix God would… I…”

“You should leave,” Yun Che’s face was expressionless and he did not even spare her a look from beginning to end, “Return to the place where you belong.”

“...” Feng Xian’er was stunned by those words and the tears she had been bitterly holding back now fell from her face like drops of rain, “Young Master… Do not chase me away… Let me take care of Xin’er please… I…”

“Go,” Yun Che closed his eyes.

“...” Feng Xian’er’s body swayed and tears gushed out of her eyes. She pressed a hand forcefully against her mouth so that her sobs would not spill out. With eyes that had been completely blurred by her tears, she dazedly stared at Yun Che’s back for a long while before she finally turned around and left...

Under the night sky, sparkling and translucent tears sprinkled down like little stars.

“...” Yun Che raised his head and looked towards the full moon in the sky.
