0256 Chapter Shadow's Secret
Liu Meiling was originally a kind girl. For her family and happiness, she walked into the Dragon King Palace to work, suffered all the grievances, and tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, in order to leave here one day and then spend a simple and happy life with her family.
But all of this was destroyed by these two people.
Chu Nan walked over with his two heads, sighed and said, "Let's go."
For some reason, although the Dragon King died, Chu Nan was not very happy. Perhaps it was because of Liu Meiling's death, or because he just felt an inexplicable sadness in Shadow... In short, this was a successful night, but not a night worthy of being too excited.
Chu Nan was about to leave the Dragon King Pavilion when he suddenly heard a painful moan. He turned his head and saw the old butler slowly awakening on the ground. After so many powerful impacts just now, the old butler did not die. He was lucky, but looking at his painful appearance, he felt that he had not lived for a long time.
The old butler struggled to get up from the ground, supported the ground with his hands, and finally lay weakly on the ground and sighed.
"Mr. Long is dead?"
"Dead."
The old butler sighed and said, "I didn't expect that the undefeated Master Long would be defeated after all. I, the old man... cough cough, have to go with Master Long. Where is the shadow, is he dead too?"
"No." Chu Nan said, "He ran away."
The old butler breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, just run away. Poor child, I hope he can spend the rest of his life safely."
Chu Nan walked back, sat cross-legged on the ground next to the old butler, put the heads of the Dragon King and Mo Baichuan aside, looked at the old butler seriously, and asked, "Can you tell me about shadow? Is he the Dragon King's son?"
"Why should I tell you?" the old butler said with a hatred, "You killed the Dragon King."
"You are wrong. The Dragon King was not killed by me, but by Shadow himself."
"How could it be..." The old housekeeper was shocked at first, then shed tears in pain, and sighed, "That's right, what you said may be right. Alas, the injustice is really an injustice..."
"It doesn't matter if I tell you. If I don't say it, maybe some things will be buried under the loess forever. Although I would rather bury these forever than let others know, after all, this is the Dragon King's family scandal, and it should not be circulated no matter how you say it. But I have been holding these words for too long. If I don't say them, I will never be able to say them."
"Tell me, I'll listen."
Tu also came over and stood beside Chu Nan, waiting for this perhaps bizarre story.
How could Shadow be the son of the Dragon King? How did Shadow become the ugly thing he is now? Why did Shadow hate his father so much? What happened between them? These are all a mystery, just waiting for the old housekeeper to solve it layer by layer.
"Perhaps, the only one who truly knows this secret in the world is me except Mr. Long..." The old housekeeper sighed, "Many people think that Mr. Long has never had children in his life. In fact, it is wrong. A woman once gave birth to two sons for him. That woman was the most beautiful woman in the Dragon King's Hall and the most famous socialite in the hands of the Dragon King. She died after giving birth to these two sons. The Dragon King disliked these two children very much because they were the seeds of socialites. It was a great shame for him to give birth to a child with a socialite. So from the time that woman was pregnant until her child was born, almost no one knew about that woman, except me."
"After the birth of the two sons, the Dragon King hired a special nanny to take care of the children, and it is strictly forbidden to leak news. Because I am the closest person around the Dragon King, I have followed the Dragon King for decades, and I am responsible for all the big and small things around him, so I am basically responsible for the daily life of these two children. Over time, I actually like these two children very much and have persuaded Mr. Long to say some good things in front of him, but Mr. Long is a stubborn person and never listened to it."
"Until one day, Mr. Long went out of a long journey and came back from another place, and suddenly became very happy. He went to see his two sons as soon as he came back. I had never seen him as happy in front of his children, nor had he been so close to him. At that time, I was also very happy to see this scene. Although I always felt something was wrong, I didn't think too much."
Both Chu Nan and Tu could imagine that things were abnormal and there would be monsters. It was impossible for Long Master to repent after going out. This did not conform to the personality of the Dragon King.
Sure enough, the old housekeeper continued: "From that day, the Dragon King rarely visited the children, but he told his servants to take good care of the children, just to wrap the children in a courtyard, not allow them to enter and exit, nor allow outsiders to enter, and no one is allowed to disclose any information about the relationship between the children and the Dragon King. Until the children were seven or eight years old, Master Long suddenly told me one day that he would send them away."
Chu Nan asked, "Where did you send it? In the end, it became what you look like now? This shadow is one of them, so what about the other one?"
The old butler sighed and said, "Later, Mr. Long told me that when he was out, he learned that a human evolution experiment could feed children with various medicines from an early age, train them in some special ways, further improve their abilities and reach a non-human level. It is said that this method is still under test, and there were no successful examples at that time, but once it was successful, the person's strength would reach a shocking level."
Chu Nan felt cold in his heart: "So the Dragon King has such thoughts about his children?"
"That's right."
Chu Nan said a little angry: "The Dragon King is really good at it. Why don't you catch other people's children to provide past experiments, but to catch your own children?"
"This is because of a special reason. If the test subject is really successful, in addition to obtaining unprecedented power, he can also use drug control to obey the orders of the closest person. He will lose his will and completely obey the person who gives the orders. However, there is a premise that the person must be the closest person, that is, he must have a direct blood relationship."
"Beast!" Chu Nan filled his chest with anger, "that means turning his child into a cold-blooded machine with super combat power!"
"It should be that." The old housekeeper burst into tears. "I also strongly opposed it at that time, because I have been taking care of this child since I was a child. Master Long is willing to do it, but I can't bear it. But Master Long cannot resist the order, and the two children were sent over. At that time, the older brother of them was only nine years old and the younger brother was only eight years old. It was said that almost all the test items in the past seven years failed. The only semi-successful test items were Master Long's youngest son. Master Long was ecstatic and sent all his wealth out and took his son back."
Chu Nan asked, "Where is that brother? He is dead?"
"Die, the only consequence of failure is death!"
Chu Nan said coldly: "It's simply inhumane. What organization is doing this experiment? Why is Shadow a semi-successful test product?"
The old butler shook his head and said, "That organization is very mysterious. Master Long has never told me that the reason why shadow is a semi-successful test piece is precisely because of his appearance. Although he has gained unprecedented power, his appearance makes him shameless from now on, and is a hundred times ugly than ghosts. But Master Long doesn't care about this. Master Long got this machine that lost his will. From then on, Master Long has an additional guardian saint around him. The Dragon King Palace has completely become a forbidden area of Province H. There are no more people in the world who can threaten Master Long's safety. All the rights of the underground world of Province H. Master Long has been captured in his hands."
"Right... For the sake of rights, do you even want your own son?" Chu Nan shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't know if I should sympathize with him or dislike him. So the old housekeeper... is such a dragon master worthy of your loyalty?"
"Mr. Long has always been very good to me. He cannot repay his kindness when he knows it. Haha, haha, you may feel ridiculous, but among the older generation, this is very important... I have said almost everything I should say, it's time to go on the road."
The old housekeeper suddenly took out a dagger from his arms and inserted it directly into his heart. Then he lay on the ground, panting heavily in his mouth, and said in a weak voice: "You know the kindness of meeting, only the road to the underworld can repay you..."
Chu Nan could have stopped him from committing suicide, but Chu Nan did not stop him. Although this old man could no longer bring much threat to him, he was an enemy after all. What's more, once a person has the will to die, even the King of Heaven would find it difficult to stop him.
Chu Nan grabbed the two heads again and stood up. He looked at Tu, sighed and asked, "Tu, do you have anything to say?"
Tu was silent for a moment, then sighed slightly, "This Dragon King... deserves to be killed!"
Chu Nan smiled: "I think so too. Maybe I kill the Dragon King for the sake of ambition, but what he did can make me feel at ease and find excuses to act on behalf of heaven."
A smile appeared on Tu Lengbingbing's face: "Young Master Chu, you are very interesting, and you can even say this excuse. However... I am becoming more and more curious about you now. A strong man approaching the king level at the age of 20, and at the peak of the Grandmaster, you have learned a trace of the law of space. Your comprehension is the strongest I have ever seen. Although the shadow is strong, he improves his strength through external objects. He will never reach a true peak in the future, but you are different..."
"What's more, you are a dual practitioner of medicine and martial arts. You made me feel a little bit."
"What does it feel?"
"I'm witnessing a miracle, the biggest miracle ever!"
