Chapter 493: The Truth Of The Past (Part 4)

Seeing him speechless, Amalia continued, "Your eyes are getting redder and redder. Are you going to turning back into your other personality? I’ve never understood the principle behind this."

Different personalities, different spiritual veins.

Kenny Lin shrugged, "I’ve been eating all the milk candy nonstop, but even if you eat too much of it, you’ll get tired of it."

"For me, can’t you endure a little bit?" Amalia said.

Kenny Lin suddenly smiled, revealing a captivating grin that sent shivers down Amalia’s spine.

"Oh right, I plan to go back to the central disaster zone for some training soon. If I can, it would be even better if I could find out more about the origin of the black fragments," Amalia said.

Kenny Lin immediately frowned, "Can’t you wait for me?"

Amalia said, "there’s no way, it’s your own fault for being so unreliable."

Kenny Lin huffed while puffing out his chest, "If I’m unreliable, then who in this world is reliable?"

"Stephen Zhao is quite reliable. I heard he’s been working hard and even broke through to Tier 1 Beginner Stage," Amalia said.

Kenny Lin narrowed his eyes, silently warning her, "It’s not a good habit to praise other men in front of your boyfriend."

Amalia rolled her eyes, "Get lost."

"I’m not leaving, I’m not leaving," Kenny Lin switched to his stubborn mode.

Amalia decided to ignore him.

Seeing the dynamic between the two of them, their elders remained silent.

It seemed like their daughter/granddaughter hadn’t suffered too much in this relationship.

The next day, Amalia went to see the Lin family’s Head without bringing Kenny Lin.

It was time to clear up some things.

"Why did you come alone? Where’s Kenny?" the Lin family’s Head asked her while looking past Amalia.

"He didn’t come. I came to see you on my own," Amalia said calmly.

The Lin family’s Head immediately understood, "Are you here to ask about Kenny?"

"Big Brother really worthy as the head of the family," Amalia smiled.

The Lin family’s Head cleared his throat, "Forget about being the head of the family. In our family, the head is often overshadowed by the ancestors."

Amalia looked puzzled.

Without further explanation regarding the family head’s authority, he continued, "If there’s something you want to ask about Kenny, go ahead. I know what you want to know, and I’ll tell you."

"In that case, I’ll be direct. I want to know about his childhood, why he developed two personalities, and how these two personalities can exist separately but share the same body. Also, what’s the deal with Kenny’s mother? He doesn’t seem to like her very much," Amalia bluntly asked her most pressing questions.

"That’s because he doesn’t know that he’s lost his memory or that his memories have been tampered with," the Lin family’s Head sighed.

Amalia wasn’t surprised.

There were indeed secrets involved, and her guess wasn’t off the mark.

This was something even Kenny himself didn’t know.

Suddenly, a speculation emerged in her mind.

"So, are you suggesting that Kenny’s memories were altered by his mother?" she inquired.

The Lin family’s Head nodded, "Our mother is a person with a special constitution. Not only is her spiritual vein is unique, but she also cannot cultivate. However, she can alter a person’s spiritual vein at the cost of her own life, which goes against the natural order of things.

When Kenny was born, he had a dark-type spiritual vein, and he cultivated at an extremely fast rate. At that time, it was to protect him while he was still young.

We never publicly announced his spiritual vein attributes, but it was unexpected that when he suddenly began to exhibiting traits of a light-type spiritual vein at around two years old.

These two types of spiritual bodies are inherently incompatible. The struggle within him threatened his life, regardless of which side gained dominance. For a period of time from when he was a little over two to three years old, he was so weak that he spent most of his time in bed."

The Lin family’s Head sighed once more.

"Our mother couldn’t bear to see Kenny, who was just over two years old, confined to his bed permanently. So, she begged to our father to let her save Kenny. Initially, our father disagreed because defying fate carried immense risks. However, he couldn’t resist his wife’s desperate pleas.

But, if our father had known at the time that his wife’s method would cost her life, he probably wouldn’t have agreed.

"Did Mrs. Lin lied to Mr. Lin?" Amalia asked.

"Yes, our mother knew that our father wouldn’t agree to her methods, but she was afraid she would not able to deceived him, so she only said that there’s 40% chance of success."

Mrs. Lin was indeed very clever.

Although she left behind her husband and other children, it couldn’t be said that what she did was wrong.

The Lin family’s Head continued, "Later, our mother sacrificed herself to alter Kenny’s spiritual vein, allowing the two types of spiritual bodies to coexist peacefully within him."

Amalia noticed a loophole, "If it’s a peaceful coexistence, Kenny couldn’t have been oblivious to it. Why would he think that the spiritual bodies split along with the personalities?"

The Lin family’s Head chuckled, "Do you really think he doesn’t know? He might know it, but perhaps he hasn’t bothered to prove it yet.

Both dark-type spiritual vein and light-type spiritual vein, regardless of the type, are more special than the others Five basic elements spiritual veins. With proper cultivation, they can surpass ordinary people.

His supposed ignorance might just be a matter of not pursuing the truth. There’s also the issue of our mother altering his memories, which we initially didn’t know about."

The Lin family’s Head sighed deeply, "Our mother was very gentle. She didn’t want Kenny to know that she died to save him after he grow up. So, she deliberately altered his memories.

The reason why she makes Kenny resents her is that she didn’t want him to blame himself or to confront his father when he grow up and bringing up everyone’s sadness again.

Our mother didn’t discuss to our father about altering his memories; she did it on her own initiative. We only learned about it later when we spoke to Kenny."

After a moment of silence, Amalia spoke, "Mrs. Lin was very noble, but I still think she shouldn’t have tampered with Kenny’s memories. She should be remembered, and Kenny isn’t someone who can’t handle adversity; he should have the right to make his own choices."

The Lin family’s Head smiled and shook his head, "Do you know why our father chose to spent decades stationed in Fruit City No. 1?"

Amalia speculated internally; was this related to Mrs. Lin?

"It’s because our mother’s final wish was for our father to scatter her ashes near Fruit City No. 1. She couldn’t see the central disaster zone subdued in her lifetime, but she hoped to witness it after death. So, to fulfill our mother’s last dream, out father rooted himself in Fruit City No. 1 and never returned to the royal durian capital city."

Reflecting on the past, the Lin family’s Head sighed heavily once more, "I was afraid that our father would feel too lonely in Fruit City No. 1 alone, so I let Ruben accompany him. Fortunately, Ruben has never let me down."

"Why didn’t you tell Kenny about these things?" Amalia inquired.

The Lin family’s Head smiled and shook his head, "Since our mother didn’t want him to know, we wouldn’t let her efforts to go waste. Of course, this secret won’t remain a secret forever. We all believe that one day, there will be an opportunity for him to know. And now, you’ve appeared."

Amalia couldn’t help but feel surprised once again by the people of the Lin family.
