Qiao Feng took a few sips of wine and sighed.
Lu Chen patted him on the shoulder. After drinking with him, he advised,"Brother Qiao, you weren't the only one to blame for the bloody case back then. If it wasn't for the fact that the heroes didn't distinguish right from wrong, how could you have lost your life in vain?”
Qiao Feng sighed." To be honest with you, Little Brother, I, Qiao, am really unwilling to harm their lives. Back then, there were many heroes in Juxian Village, and many of them knew me. It was because I could not stand them using my bloodline as a test question and insulting me as a Khitan bastard that I…started a massacre!”
At this point, Lu Chen put down the wine jar and said solemnly,""Brother Qiao, what if you know that your bloodline is really as those people say, and that you flow the blood of the Khitans?”
"Impossible!"
Qiao Feng smashed the wine jar on the table and said angrily,"Little brother, don't joke with me like this. Otherwise, you'll be letting down my father, Qiao Sanhuai, who raised you!”
"According to my investigation, the deaths of your father and master were caused by the same person, and this person has a great relationship with you.”
"Who is it?" Qiao Feng hurriedly smelled it.
Lu Chen dipped his finger into the wine and wrote three words on the table,"Xiao Yuanshan"!
Qiao Feng looked at him and said,"I don't remember having any interactions with this person surnamed Xiao. Why would he want to harm me?"”
" He's not trying to harm you," Lu Chen said with a smile." He's trying to take revenge on the Chinese server!"”
Back then, Master Xuanci of Shaolin Temple believed Murong Bo's slander and thought that Xiao Yuanshan was coming to the Central Plains to seize the secret manuals of Shaolin Temple. Therefore, he joined forces with the leader of Beggar's Sect, Wang Jiantong, Master Zhiguang of Tiantai Mountain, Taoist Master Heyun of Yellow Mountain, and other 21 masters to intercept and kill Xiao Yuanshan outside Yanmen Pass.
However, Xiao Yuanshan had only come to the Central Plains to visit his family with his wife and children.
Under the siege of a group of martial arts experts, Xiao Yuanshan killed several people, but his wife was accidentally killed.
In addition, Xiao Yuanshan had promised the Southern Dynasty master not to kill the Han people before he became a disciple. Now that he had broken his oath, he was even more miserable. He wanted to die with his wife and leave an orphan behind before jumping off the cliff to commit suicide.
This orphan was picked up by Xuan Ci and the others who were lucky enough to survive Xiao Yuanshan's hands. They now understood that this assassination was just a misunderstanding, but it caused Xiao Yuanshan's family to be destroyed. In addition to regret, they took in this orphan and entrusted him to the home of the Qiao couple on Shaoshi Mountain. They also arranged for their junior brother Xuan Ku to take care of him and teach him.
Hearing this, Qiao Feng instantly understood. He opened his eyes and asked,"Are you saying that the orphan is me?”
Lu Chen nodded.
"That Xiao Yuanshan is my father. I'm really a Khitan, I'm a Khitan…"
Qiao Feng repeated the same sentence over and over again, pacing back and forth in the attic as if he had lost his mind.
"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!!!”
Qiao Feng roared loudly, and the true energy in his entire body leaked out, surging in the pavilion like an avalanche.
Lu Chen hurriedly circulated the Nine Yang Divine Technique to resist the overbearing Genuine Qi. At the same time, he said loudly,"Brother Qiao, don't you want to know Xiao Yuanshan's whereabouts?”
Hearing this, Qiao Feng regained his rationality for a moment.
"Tell me, since he jumped off the cliff, why didn't he die? Since he's my father, why did he want to harm me?”Qiao Feng asked in pain.
Lu Chen told him the whole story.
"That day, Xiao Yuanshan didn't die after jumping off the cliff. He hid in Shaolin Temple to seek revenge. Your master Xuan Ku and the Qiao couple were killed by him. Coincidentally, you just met these people because you were looking for your background, so you were misunderstood by people in Jianghu.”
After learning the truth about his master and adoptive father's suffering, Qiao Feng's face was filled with pain.
"Why? Why did he do this? Why did he kill them?”
Lu Chen also sighed and said bluntly,"Your master, your foster father, and the others knew your true identity, but they were unwilling to tell you the truth. This might be the reason why Xiao Yuanshan killed you!”
Qiao Feng, who knew the truth, stood in front of the window of the Heaven Ascension Pavilion and said in a deep voice,"Little brother, where is Xiao Yuanshan now?”
His calm tone could not hide his anger at all. Lu Chen understood his current feelings. Such a complicated past, even a true man would not be able to recover in a short time.
"What will you do after you find out about his whereabouts? Do you still want to seek revenge on him?”Lu Chen asked.
Qiao Feng was silent, only the anger burning in his body.
A moment later, Qiao Feng said," I've been wronged for so many years. Everyone in the martial arts world thinks that I, Qiao Feng, am disloyal, unjust, heartless, and unfilial. Isn't it all because of him? Even if my teacher and my father knew about my background, they wouldn't be punished to death, but he killed me…"
Lu Chen asked," So what if Xiao Yuanshan has a blood feud for more than 30 years? He saw his son being raised by his enemy and became a martial arts hero in the Central Plains. Who knows the pain he felt during this period?"”
Lu Chen's words made Qiao Feng gradually calm down.
" I'm a Khitan!" He could not help but feel sad about his complicated background." Ever since I was young, my father taught me to do righteous things and be a true hero. But in the end, I'm really a Khitan. How sad and lamentable!”
Lu Chen came to Qiao Feng's side, and the two of them looked at the crescent moon outside the window.
"Where there are people, there will be Jianghu, and where there is Jianghu, there will be grudges. There is nothing in this world that can escape the words 'grudges' and 'love'. Brother Qiao, why don't you let go of your bloodline obsession and accept your true self?”Lu Chen said.
"Accept my true self? Who is my true self…Who is my true self?”
Qiao Feng muttered to himself as he carried a pot of wine and sat cross-legged in front of the window, unmoving like a rock.
Seeing this, Lu Chen didn't say anything else and fell asleep in the corner while he was drunk.
The next morning, Lu Chen was jolted awake by a deafening laugh.
Lu Chen rubbed his eyes and could not help but ask,"Brother Qiao, why are you laughing?"
Qiao Feng stood in front of the window of the Sky Ascension Pavilion, full of pride. His aura seemed to have changed completely. Seeing that Lu Chen had woken up, Qiao Feng said,"Little brother, I understand. Accept your true self. I understand!!!”
"All of this was caused by Murong Bo's attempt to stir up a conflict between the Han and Liao Dynasties. Whether it was my father or adoptive father, they were all implicated by this conspiracy. Every injustice has its perpetrator, and every debt has its perpetrator. Even if I want to seek revenge, I should find the thief who sowed discord.”Qiao Feng said.
Lu Chen could not help but exclaim in his heart," Good heavens! Qiao Feng's cultivation base has advanced another level in just one night. I'm afraid that he's already half a step into the Free and Unfettered Heavenly Realm. Has the karma in his heart disappeared?"”
Hence, he said,"Congratulations, Brother Qiao, for breaking through your karma!"”
"Since I've accepted my true self, little brother, please don't call me Brother Qiao. From now on, my surname is Xiao and my name is Xiao Feng."”
Lu Chen could not help but smile bitterly. Qiao Feng's strength was already extraordinary. Now that his cultivation had broken through, it was even more troublesome. This time, he had found himself a big problem.
Xiao Feng came to Lu Chen and said solemnly,"It is all thanks to little brother's kind words that I was able to let go of the obsession of my identity and overcome my negative karma. If little brother doesn't mind, today I, Xiao, am willing to become a Golden Orchid with you.”
Lu Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said,"Brother Xiao, since there is true love between us, there is no need to add this bond. If we are not brothers Jin Lan, we are still good friends.”
At this moment, Lu Chen was still having a headache because he was forced to get involved in the dispute in Snow Moon City. Xiao Feng had accepted his true self, and in the future, he would not be able to escape from the Great Liao Dynasty. He did not want to be involved in another storm.
However, not only was Xiao Feng not puzzled by Lu Chen's rejection, he even admired Lu Chen's elegance. He immediately took out a good wine and continued to drink with him.
Finally, after several days of drunkenness, the system's voice sounded again.
