Chapter 43: Sharing Some Secrets, A Thousand Years' Plan

--- Chapter 42 ---

Yu Long, Yu Zhan, Xu Sanshan, and Xu Nannan returned to the Yu Clan's Compound. 

"Let's meet your mother first." Xu Nannan said with a smile.

"After leaving our side for fifteen years, she deserves to know the truth." 

Xu Sanshan sighed slightly and glanced at Yu Long, "Fine, we didn't plan to expose ourselves this early. However, my grandson is so outstanding that he might be the person prophesied by Lady Mu." 

"Prophesied? Lady Mu?" Yu Long was puzzled.

"Hehe, we will explain it to you soon." Xu Sanshan laughed, patting his grandson's back.

"Father-in-law, mother-in-law, let me escort you to Yu Xin's courtyard." Yu Zhan patted his chest nervously.

Xu Sanshan nodded and didn't say anything. It seems Xu Nannan's words earlier are working fine.

His grandfather's cultivation base is the 9th Level of the Emperor Profound Realm. On the other hand, his grandmother is weaker, standing at the 2nd Level of the Emperor Profound Realm.

They are both what one called 'Thrones' in this world.

Thrones are the title for the Emperor Profound Realm.

Yu Long frowned and thought, 'Grandpa is cultivating the Illusory Devil Tome of Eternal Night, so his cultivation base is understandable.' 

'However, I could sense that grandma isn't a Dark Profound Master.' 

'Her profound strength is... Wood Element?'

Yu Long was surprised to find Xu Nannan's profound strength is a rare Wood Element.

Besides his self-created [Art of Wood], Yu Long couldn't remember any profound art with similar attributes on this planet. 

They arrived at Yu Xin's courtyard and saw her reading books inside the garden.

"Xin'er, we are coming to visit." Xu Nannan was the first to call her.

Yu Xin stopped reading and lifted her head, seeing her mother after ten years. "Mother!" She excitedly ran and hugged her.

"I missed you..." 

Xu Nannan rubbed Yu Xin's head and replied, "We missed you too, darling." 

"Now, hug your father. He was lonely as well." 

"Father!" Yu Xin's eyes lit up.

"Xin'er!" Xu Sanshan grinned happily. 

The father and daughter hugged each other. 

It looks like a grizzly bear is hugging a small deer, to be honest.

But Yu Long won't deny that it was heartwarming.

After the reunion, they sat in the pavilion and had some servants preparing tea and snacks.

Xu Sanshan and Xu Nannan glanced at each other, sensing the servants hired by the Yu Clan weren't ordinary people. They are profound practitioners with decent foundations.

"Don't be alarmed. Those servants are my people, grandfather, grandmother." Yu Long said casually.

"This is..." Xu Sanshan couldn't believe it.

"Well..." Xu Nannan felt her grandson was more mysterious than before.

Yu Xin tilted her head and cluelessly asked, "What are you talking about, Long'er?" 

"It as it is, Mom." Yu Long helplessly raised his arms. "Remember when you were buying me those books about martial arts?" 

"Yes." Yu Xin nodded, thinking it was nothing special.

Yu Long smiled and added, "Through those books, I was about to develop my own profound art." 

"Also several other things like medicine, and theories of profound ways." 

"It took me two years to develop it, another two years to make my people train it. Until now, my profound art and cultivation method have proven effective as many loyal people submitted under me." 

"I founded an organization, steering it from the shadows to protect the Yu Clan and everything in the Blue North County's territory. We are still growing, but in a few years, another superpower will appear in the Profound Sky Continent." 

"Oh yeah, the Yu Clan's business has been in my hands all these years. So, Father is only helping me with connection and budget sorting." 

"I didn't plan to expose my secret this early but fuck it. I believe my strengths are enough to protect my family now." 

Cough! Cough!

"..." Xu Sanshan choked on his tea.

"..." Xu Nannan's jaw dropped.

"..." Yu Xin was speechless.

"..." Yu Zhan felt betrayed. He did more than sort the budget.

"Is this true? You're not playing a prank on me, right?" Yu Xin suppressed her surprise.

Yu Long raised his eyebrow and clapped in a specific pattern. Three Shadow Agents appeared and kneeled behind him.

"Lord Shadow, what's your command?" They said in unison.

Yu Long waved his hand, " It's nothing. You can return to your post." 

"Dismissed." 

"Roger!" The Shadow Agents vanished into thin air.

Yu Xin opened her mouth and wanted to say something but couldn't bring herself to because the shock was too much. She breathed heavily as if panic just struck her.

Yu Long grabbed Yu Xin's hand and flowed his profound strength, calming herself down.

"H-How long have you hidden this?" She gazed into her son's golden eyes.

Yu Long thought at the top of his head and answered, "A little over four years?" 

"And you never told me?" She looks upset.

'Uh, oh. It's time to throw someone under the bus.' Yu Long thought immediately.

He faked a cough and answered, "Well, you see..." 

"I told Father about this in my first year."

"I thought he'd tell you..." He cast an apologizing look at Yu Zhan.

"Husband!" Yu Xin moved her gaze to Yu Zhan, making the latter smile in defeat.

Yu Zhan cursed his youngest son for being too slick and replied, "Okay, okay. Let me explain first." 

"I admitted that I did know this earlier... "

"However! I didn't know Yu Long found an organization and reached a cultivation realm beyond father-in-law." 

"My understanding of Yu Long's accomplishment is only the tip of the iceberg. I superficially assumed he was a rare genius and must have a powerful teacher behind him." 

"I'm shocked, just like you. But here we are, sitting together in this unreal conversation." 

"I could only accept the shock." He shook his head bitterly. 

"No, we should accept that our son is such a remarkable genius!" 

Yu Xin rubbed her temple and frowned again, "Wait... Did you say Yu Long reached the cultivation base over Father?" 

"Uh, I did." Yu Zhan dodged Xu Sanshan's menacing gaze.

Xu Sanshan cursed, "Yu Zhan, you little prick..." 

"Motherfucker, I should have broken your arm earlier..." 

"Father! How could you say such a thing? Yu Zhan is my husband!" Yu Xin defends her husband. 

"Yu Xin..." Yu Zhan felt touched.

Yu Xin huffed and continued, "I should be the one who broke his arm!"

"..." Yu Zhan felt betrayed again.

Where is my gentle wife?

"And Father! How could you hide this from me?" She lashed back to Xu Sanshan, who hung his head low.

"Dayuum." Yu Long enjoyed the drama. He wished he had popcorn right now.

Yu Xin was angry. Why did they hide such an important thing from her?

She felt very ignorant.

She doesn't know how much her parents sacrificed.

She doesn't know how much her husband felt pressured all this time.

She doesn't know how much her son suffered all those years.

They lied to her!

A sense of hopelessness grew in her heart.

"Xin'er, we are going to tell you the truth now." Xu Nannan finally opened her mouth. She released a calming aura to soothe the atmosphere.

"Honey, I can explain it, right?" 

"...Go on." Xu Sanshan nodded lightly.

Xu Nannan became their center of focus as she opened her mouth.

"Aside from Yu Long's matter, I'll explain why we hide the fact that we are profound practitioners from you, Xin'er." 

"Do you know about the Great Sacred Grounds?" 

"No..." Yu Xin shook her head.

Xu Nannan smiled, "Good, it seems Great Sacred Grounds' influence doesn't reach this place." 

"In the Profound Sky Continent, there are originally Five Superpowers." 

"They are Absolute Monarch Sanctuary, Supreme Ocean Palace, Sun Moon Divine Hall, Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, and Eternal Night Royal Family." 

"Due to the slanderous act of the Four Other Sacred Grounds, the Eternal Night Royal Family is framed as an evil faction and exterminated." 

"Before the framing, the Eternal Night Queen saved a woman. That woman lost her memory and strength but soon recovered them as time passed and built the Frozen Cloud Asgard." 

"Unfortunately, her strength isn't enough to help the Eternal Night Royal Family, so she prophesied a future event."

"Fortunately, those Sacred Grounds didn't know the Eternal Night King planned something." 

"The prophecy helps the Eternal Night Clan to devise a contingency plan, which he later passed to his second son, who at the time adventuring outside the Eternal Night Royal Family to temper himself." 

"The second prince survived and hid for years, even changing his identity several times." 

"And that contingency plan is?" Yu Long couldn't help but ask.

Xu Nannan smiled, "Strengthening the Devil Bloodline of the Eternal Night Royal Family. And create the strongest warrior." 

"The second prince followed this plan and married a princess of the distant empire, giving his descendant a unique body suitable to carry bloodlines." 

"Of course, there could only be one descendant at the time." 

"If it's a male, he'd be a fine warrior with a hybrid bloodline. But the probability of passing it to the next royal descendant will be low..."

"If it's a female, then she'd also be a fine warrior with a hybrid bloodline too, but she also could incubate and pass the genes better to the next royal descendant..." 

"You, my dear, are the 5th generation princess of the Eternal Night Royal Family." 

"You're also an excellent royal descendant with Myriad Devil Physique, which is very strong, so we have no choice but to suppress it." 

"But why...?" Yu Xin clutched her robe.

"It's because your bloodline and physique are too absurd..." Xu Sanshan answered this time. "The Four Great Sacred Grounds have a technique that detects our Devil's Bloodline." 

"And yours is like a beacon of light in their radar." 

"So, we sealed your bloodline and physique." 

"Or you'll get hunted for the rest of your life."

He sighed, "We raised you in the countryside, hoping you'd fall in love with ordinary people, live normally, and weaken your bloodline and physique." 

"And then... You fell in love with this bastard, Yu Zhan."

"When I saw your lovesick expression that day, I knew we must cherish this chance and let you live peacefully." 

"Even after knowing Yu Zhan has three wives, which were 'inherently' chosen by his parents to maintain Yu Clan's business, I still allow you to marry him." 

"He might be a bastard, but at least he genuinely loves you. And with his three wives, I could see him giving you a sufficiently luxurious life." 

"..." Yu Zhan doesn't know if this was a praise or an insult.

Xu Nannan sipped her tea and commented, "Yu Zhan, having four wives, is also a good cover for your protection." 

"No one would pay attention to a local businessman with many wives because it was 'literally' expected in this era. Those Sacred Grounds wouldn't lower themselves to ordinary people's level..." 

"You might wonder why we only visited you once every ten years?" 

"That's because we have limited contact between you and your father." 

"When the Eternal Night Royal Family's bloodlines met, they created a powerful resonance that alarmed the Four Great Sacred Grounds." 

"Three days is the limit before the bloodline's resonance causes a disturbance in their radars." 

"I-I see..." Yu Xin looked down at the tiles.

Tears welled up in her eyes.

"There, there." Xu Nannan hugged her tightly. "Don't cry, you're a mother now." 

"Show some grace. Yu Long is watching you." 

"I don't mind, you can cry." Yu Long suddenly said.

'Yu Long, dear... Read the room!' Xu Nannan's mouth twitched slightly. 

Her grandson is really something else.

Meanwhile, the men are glancing at each other.

Xu Sanshan snorted at Yu Zhan, "Good job, you're doing great all this time." 

"A-Are you praising me, father-in-law?" Yi Zhan was shocked.

"Hmph!" Xu Sanshan looked away.

"Anyway, Yu Long." He gazed at his grandson.

"Without a doubt, you're the strongest warrior our Eternal Night Royal Family ever have." 

"Even at such a young age, you're already stronger than me." 

"Not to mention, you're very talented and even created your own profound art." 

"As the 5th Prince of the Eternal Night Royal Family, you have the highest chance to revive our family and become the second Eternal Night King!" 

"Will you do it?" Xu Sanshan gives him a small smile.

"Hmm, interesting offer." Yu Long responded calmly, pondering the Eternal Night Royal Family's contingency plan. With his current arsenal, reviving the Eternal Night Royal Family is a simple matter for him.

And sooner or later, the Four Great Sacred Grounds will be his enemy anyway.

Even then, He has a greater goal than that! It seems his reincarnation in this world isn't that simple. He actually forced some changes before his arrival. This mystery is more interesting.

He smirked at his grandfather, "Interesting offer... But I refuse!"
