Chapter 843 The Truth of the Relics of the Guwei State

Huh? Mr. Zhu turned out to be her biological uncle!

In that instant, Lin Mengya was stupefied by this news.

She shook her head subconsciously and denied the shocking news.

That was impossible! How could Mr. Zhu be her uncle?

“How could that be possible? You claim to be my uncle, but do you have any evidence?” Lin Mengya asked.

Then she took a step back and fixed her eyes on Mr. Zhu.

In any case, she could not believe that the man in front of her was Zuo Qiuyu and Zuo Qiuchen’s biological father.

Mr. Zhu suddenly sighed, showing a weary look in his eyes on his handsome face, as if he had seen enough of life.

Staring at Lin Mengya, he began to recall what had happened many years ago.

He said, “I have expected you won’t believe me. Mengya, your mother and I are siblings, and I’ve managed to survive to this day just in order to free our Zuo Family from the curse that has been plaguing us for more than a thousand years. Now that you’ve found out about this today, I know it’s time to resume our relationship.”

Lin Mengya was so confused that she almost lost the ability to think.

Could she believe Mr. Zhu? At present, she was unable to make an accurate judgment.

She was only sure of one thing: Mr. Zhu’s following words might reverse her original thoughts.

Casting a loving glance at Lin Mengya, the man in blue clothes looked particularly cold and lonely, as if he were the only person in the world who insisted on keeping those secrets he could not tell.

“The story began from the Guwei State that existed more than a thousand years ago. Kid, our Zuo Family had been a notable family in the Guwei State since then,” Mr. Zhu said in a very deep voice.

Despite Lin Mengya’s complicated feelings, she leaned against the wall and watched him vigilantly while listening to him talk about the history she had no way of learning.

Although the Guwei State was a legendary country that existed more than a thousand years ago, it had been an extremely glorious piece of history to their Zuo Family.

At that time, the Jin State, the Lieyun Empire, the Nation of Lintian and the Nation of Dongxia were all part of the Guwei State, an ancient kingdom that had existed for thousands of years.

No one knew when it was established and became prosperous, and the reason for its degeneration had also become an unsolved mystery for thousands of years.

But Mr. Zhu’s narration presented this mysterious ancient kingdom to Lin Mengya in a different way.

The Zuo Family had been one of the notable families close to the royal family of the Guwei State in its late dynasty.

The last emperor of the Guwei State, Emperor Wei, was versed in both literature and military affairs.

He did well in running the Guwei State and led it back to the peak.

But at that time, something serious happened in the country.

Regarding what exactly happened, there was no reference.

However, after that, Emperor Wei of the Guwei State became decadent overnight and no longer cared about the country.

Meanwhile, a rebel army, which had waited for a chance to cause trouble, started a war that spread all over the Guwei State.

The large and powerful Guwei State collapsed overnight.

The rebel army, which was going to intrude into the capital city, did not expect the capital city of the Guwei State, which had existed for thousands of years, to turn out to be built on a huge mechanism.

The night before they were going to occupy the capital city, Emperor Wei, in dire straits, activated the mechanism in the capital city.

Then the capital city sank deep underground and vanished into thin air.

The rebel army, the common people in the capital city and the royal family all become history.

Lin Mengya did not expect the truth turned out to be this.

She asked, “Since the capital city of the Guwei State is gone, what does it have to do with my mother’s family?”

What Mr. Zhu said really shocked her.

Who would have thought the Guwei State which had been a superpower disappeared in this way?

Mr. Zhu answered, “As one of the guardians of the royal family of the Guwei State, our family was supposed to sink underground with the capital city. But our ancestors received an even more important mission: to protect the capital city and eliminate all those who seek to disturb the sleeping Emperor Wei!”

What? Lin Mengya opened her eyes wide. It was not until now that she realized the relics of the Guwei State she had tried hard to pursue turned out to be the capital city that had sunk underground after the mechanism was activated!

“Even so, it’s been more than a thousand years. Shouldn’t we put our mission and responsibility out of our minds? Besides, whether the relics of the Guwei State can be brought to light has little to do with us, doesn’t it?” Lin Mengya said.

If this was the case, she was even more confused by what made the so-called responsibility binding on the Zuo Family.

Mr. Zhu said, “If that’s the case, why did your mother and I have to do all this? The royal family of the Guwei State was proficient in making mechanisms, and their skill of breeding venomous insects had reached the peak of its development. The music score for the green stringed instrument your mother possessed is just one of the relics she got from the Guwei State. Both the members of our Zuo Family and other survivors had the unique venomous insects of the Guwei State implanted in their bodies, and this kind of venomous insects would be inherited from generation to generation, so we must perform our mission.”

There were survivors other than the members of the Zuo Family?

Lin Mengya, who seemed to have suddenly realized something, opened her eyes wide and glanced at Mr. Zhu.

Mr. Zhu nodded with a bitter look and said, “The Lieyun Empire is established by those survivors. The Guwei State is what they believed to be the heaven, and Emperor Wei is the legendary King of Various Venomous Insects.”

The truth turned out to be this. Lin Mengya was at a loss for how to express her complicated feelings.

She had thought all this happened by chance, and had never expected that they were led here by their destinies that had been written over a thousand years ago.

“So that’s how it is. But since our family is destined to protect the relics of the Guwei State, why did you lead me to the truth step by step and then help me solve the mystery of the relics of the Guwei State?” she asked.

If the Zou Family was supposed to protect the relics of the Guwei State as Mr. Zhu said, what she was doing now was totally wrong, wasn’t it?

However, Lin Mengya saw Mr. Zhu show a cold smile as if he had included everything in his scheme.

He said, “No, in fact, I’m the only one who knows this secret, and now you know it too. So far, the relics of the Guwei State people have been pursuing is not the one we need to protect, because the real relics of the Guwei State can no longer be found. At present, what they have been trying all they can to seek is merely a legendary paradise city, and the pursuit of it is the most important task Emperor Wei assigned us !”

The truth shocked Lin Mengya to an even greater extent.

The so-called relics of the Guwei State turned out to be merely an illusion and bait used to mislead people.

Lin Mengya stared at Mr. Zhu in disbelief, wondering how many secrets she was unaware of.

Mr. Zhu said, “At present, our ancestors have found the general location of the paradise city after spending more than a thousand years searching it. Once we find it, the curse of our family will be completely removed. Back then, in order to make the descendants of our Zuo Family continue performing the task Emperor Wei assigned us, our ancestors spread the news that the key to the mystery of the relics of the Guwei State was in the possession of our family. At the same time, in order to prevent our family from being eliminated, Emperor Wei gave us sufficient resources. Although we have become the royal family of the Nation of Lintian through a thousand years of development, it doesn’t mean that we can rest assured. This is the slim chance of survival our ancestors tried hard to earn for our Zuo family!”

Learning all this, Lin Mengya was too stunned to react.

Compared with the truth of these legends, the news that Mr. Zhu was her biological uncle did not seem to be that shocking.

“Although you said that, how can you prove to me that what you said is true?” Lin Mengya asked.

Her eyes were still bright and wise, and she was not puzzled by this at all.

Mr. Zhu said, “You react the same way as your mother. When our father mentioned this to us, your mother questioned it as you do. Mengya, I can’t prove it nor that I am your uncle. But we have to do this. Furthermore, there is one thing I think only the two of us know. Your soul once traveled to another world, right?”

If it were not for the wall behind her, Lin Mengya probably would flee away in shock at once.

However, she, who had no way out and was driven to extremities, had no choice but to face it.

She asked, “Who... who on earth are you?”

It was impossible! There was no way to give a modern scientific explanation for soul travel. How did he, an ancient person, learn it?

With a sigh, Mr. Zhu put away the serious look he had shown when talking about the relics of the Guwei State.

It seemed to Lin Mengya that he was like an elder who really cared about the younger generation.

He said, “I know it because there had been a legend passed down from generation to generation in our family before you were born. Considering our family’s loyalty to Emperor Wei, Emperor Wei left us a way out after implanting the venomous insects in our ancestors’ bodies. If we failed to find the paradise city a thousand years later, we would have a baby girl, the first member of our family capable of throwing off the venomous insect, on the condition that the baby’s mother must marry a descendant of the survivors of the paradise city. The descendant is your father, Lin Muzhi, and you, Lin Mengya, are the only girl free from the torture of venomous insects, as well as the only hope of our Zuo family!”

Could it be that her mother and father’s meeting was arranged?

Lin Mengya suddenly found it a little hard to accept the series of truths she learned.

She stared blankly at the air. After learning the series of truths, she, who had been extremely determined, had a mental breakdown for the first time.

“I... I was born to be the tool for you to remove the curse, wasn’t I?” she asked.

All of a sudden, Mr. Zhu held her in his broad and warm arms, temporarily embracing her who slightly wavered in her resolution after learning the truth.
