Chapter 411: 0412 The Lonely Origin (Thanks to ’Love is Eternal’ for the reward)

The sun rose in the east.

Ye Qiu’s chest emitted a thunderous roar as if a dragon was born. He slowly ended his practice, and the sound gradually faded. His tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, shooting out two beams of lightning towards the distance.

Bai Xiong cast an envious look, also sitting nearby cultivating but without the dramatic effects of Ye Qiu.

He sighed inwardly, perhaps this was the difference between a warrior forged by technology and one who solely relied on personal cultivation.

The early morning was the best time for martial training, which Ye Qiu adhered to daily without fail, regardless of the cold winter or the scorching summer, maintaining this habit.

They had been staying in these mountains for half a month, and during that time, Ye Qiu had continuously tempered his strength. Now, his True Qi was twice as dense as before. One could say he was at the peak of the later stage of True Qi Realm, having thoroughly solidified his foundation and accumulated a significant reserve.

Ye Qiu slowly got up, ready to find the Malignant Spirit Mystique. Everyday sparring with Bai Xiong wasn’t enough for his continued progress; he needed to engage in life and death battles, as mere bouts with Bai Xiong couldn’t bring him much benefit anymore.

Ye Qiu understood in his heart that Bai Xiong, fearing the Malignant Spirit Mystique, dare not go all out against him. Holding back during their fights was the main reason Ye Qiu no longer wished to continue sparring with Bai Xiong.

His eyes glanced towards the figure standing on the mountain peak, then slowly retracted his gaze, thinking it was time to inquire about the questions in his mind.

"Senior," not long after, Ye Qiu appeared behind the Malignant Spirit Mystique, speaking softly.

"I know you have doubts, you must have a lot you want to say, right? Now you can ask," the Malignant Spirit Mystique said slowly, turning around to face Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu was slightly startled, seemingly the other had discerned his thoughts. In his days with the Malignant Spirit Mystique, he was no longer as wary of him as he had been at the beginning.

Although he didn’t understand why the Malignant Spirit Mystique displayed no intent to kill him and instead often gave him guidance on the martial path, he believed the man would ultimately reveal his reasons; he hadn’t asked before because the timing felt inappropriate. Now, while their relationship couldn’t yet be called friendship, at least it wasn’t marked by particular indifference.

"Thank you for saving my life, Senior. Although I don’t know why you chose to save me, I’m truly grateful for your guidance in martial arts and for providing Bai Xiong as my training partner," said Ye Qiu.

His words were earnest, and he locked gazes with the Malignant Spirit Mystique. After a few seconds of silence, the Malignant Spirit Mystique smiled, "Actually, I was planning to kill you, and I’ve been tracking you down for that very reason."

"Then why didn’t you kill me? Even if not by your own hand, if you had just stood by, I would have died, thus fulfilling your wish, wouldn’t it?"

"Hehe, that fellow appreciates you and is willing to instruct you; you probably consider him as a master in your heart," the Malignant Spirit Mystique said, referring to the Malignant Spirit’s Goodwill Personality. He wasn’t wrong, as Ye Qiu held great respect for the Malignant Spirit’s Goodwill Personality in his heart.

"I didn’t spare you just to respect his wishes, but rather because of... those eyes of yours!"

The words of the Malignant Spirit Mystique caused Ye Qiu to stand in place, unable to calm his heart for a long time; it was indeed because of his eyes.

"Your eyes can see through all things. Do you know why?" the Malignant Spirit Mystique asked slowly.

Ye Qiu indeed didn’t know why his eyes had this ability, different from ordinary people. The reasoning provided by the old pervert, that his body had undergone a mutation, was unsubstantiated, and Ye Qiu himself wasn’t entirely convinced.

"Does Senior know the reason?"

"The reason is... because... you are from the Dugu Clan!" the Malignant Spirit Mystique declared dramatically, his eyes flashing with an unusual light after speaking.

"I am from the Dugu Clan?" Ye Qiu felt bewildered; how had he unwittingly become a member of the Dugu Clan? Did that not mean that the Dugu Clan he had been desperately trying to find was himself?

"The Dugu Clan is not one person; it’s a surname, and you are a descendant of the Dugu Clan. Do you understand now?" the Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man explained.

"I am a descendant of the Dugu Clan..." Ye Qiu murmured to himself, lost in thought, with only three words echoing in his mind: Dugu Clan!

The words of the Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man struck like a thunderbolt from a clear sky, pounding Ye Qiu’s heart because he had finally found a clue to his origins.

Ye Qiu had never known who his parents were. From the time he had memory, he had been wandering until he met the old lecher, who took him away to become his disciple. Only then did Ye Qiu’s life stabilize, ending his existence as an orphan.

"Why are you so certain that I am a descendant of the Dugu Clan?" Ye Qiu’s heart was in turmoil; he still needed to be sure whether what the Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man said was credible.

"The Dugu Clan possesses the God-given Divine Eyes, a gift from the heavens, and they are also the family closest to the divine spirits on the vast lands of China."

"You can see through everything because of your Dugu Clan bloodline. In this world, you won’t find a second person with these eyes."

As he spoke, there was a desolate aura emanating from the Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man.

"But you also have a pair of penetrating eyes. Are you from the Dugu Clan too?" Ye Qiu digested the man’s words and then fixed his gaze on the other’s eyes and asked.

"Me? Haha... Although my eyes can also see through everything, their original owner does not belong to me!" The Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man laughed sorrowfully.

Does not belong to you? Their original owner?

Ye Qiu’s eyes widened. Could it mean...

"You guessed it right. These eyes were given to me by the Dugu Clan; I don’t carry the Dugu surname," the Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man continued.

Shaken and puzzled, Ye Qiu listened as the Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man went on, "I was originally blind. The Dugu Clan took me in. Regrettably, the Dugu Clan could not escape that catastrophe. When I awoke, I found that I could clearly see the world around me. I knew that my eyes were given to me by that noble Dugu gentleman because I often told him how much I wanted to see the world, the real world. Unfortunately, when I finally saw it, he..."

"I owe the Dugu Clan. By the grace of Heaven, I found you, a descendant of the Dugu Clan. I think it’s about time I repay this kindness."

"Remember, you are the only descendant of the Dugu Clan. You must live, and you must become very strong, to avenge your father, your grandfather, my benefactor." The Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man spoke as if he were about to suddenly leave, never to return.

"Ye Qiu, remember the blood of the Dugu Clan flows in your veins. I, too, must go to that place and take back what belongs to the Dugu Clan." Suddenly, a powerful aura burst forth from the Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man, startling all creatures within a ten-mile radius.

"Bai Xiong!" The Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man called out sharply, and the white bear quickly ran over, looking at him respectfully.

Poor Bai Xiong, a top-tier beast-human, had been turned into the endearing ’Bai Xiong’ by the Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man, who then said to Ye Qiu, "I’m taking Bai Xiong with me. From now on, you must walk the path alone. I believe that, as a descendant of the Dugu Clan, you will surely live and return to China!"

"As for who your enemy is, when you see me next time, I will tell you slowly."

"You must survive!"

The Ill-intentioned Mysterious Man left, taking Bai Xiong with him, leaving Ye Qiu standing in place, lost in thought.
