Chapter 289: Dad, What Exactly Are You Doing?
If it had been before, Qin Feng would never have associated his own father with the renowned Chief Ghost Head.
However, when Sister Mo mentioned it, he suddenly realized that many things were too coincidental.
Firstly, the Ghost Head lived in this Jinyang City in seclusion.
Secondly, whenever Jinyang City or when he and the Qin family encountered danger, the Ghost Head would always appear in time.
The more Qin Feng reflected, the more unease gnawed at him.
Our Qin family ancestors were esteemed third-grade generals. Though the lineage may have weakened, our decline to this point feels suspiciously rapid.
And every time Dad goes out for business, he always returns safely. Although he hires people from the Demon Slaying Department to escort him, he has never encountered any danger, which is too unscientific.
And that night of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk, Dad said he went to find a lost money pouch, but ended up in a brothel?
Coincidentally, during his disappearance, the Ghost Head appeared and, with absolute strength, killed that monster. Dad and the Ghost Head always appear at different times!
Qin Feng was increasingly skeptical, But could Dad, that fumbling, unreliable man, truly be the Ghost Head? He was gravely injured back then, trapped in the courtyards heavy abyss formation. Unless his usual demeanor is just a masterful performance.
But is that possible?
A person who is clearly powerful, how could he consistently behave like an ordinary person for more than a decade, even worse than an ordinary person?
Moreover, if Dad is really the Ghost Head, why didnt he teach his second son the martial arts tradition and let him explore it himself?
Qin Feng was puzzled, but this thought made him restless. He was eager to know the truth.
No, I have to figure this out. Qin Feng squinted his eyes and muttered to himself.
Cough, cough. In the hall, Dad, who was drinking tea, suddenly choked on the tea.
The second mother on the side did not care, but said with a faint smile, Choking on tea, could it be that youre thinking about someone else? The black-robed woman who came today, though she transformed from a demonic beast, even I, as your wife, find her stunning.
Madam, what nonsense are you talking about? In my eyes, except for you, all women are ordinary. Qin Jianan spoke with conviction.
The second wife was a refined lady after all. Although she felt a bit embarrassed hearing this, she blushed slightly, scolded him, and most of her inner grievances disappeared instantly.Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
Qin Feng fell into silence.
According to the memories of the original owner, Dad had told him that his mother passed away shortly after giving birth to him due to a lingering illness.
Dad, what kind of illness did Mom actually have back then?
Qin Jianan hesitated for a moment and then sighed, You were young at that time, so I made up a reason to deceive you. But now that youve grown up, you should know the truth about what happened back then. In fact, your mother did not die of illness but because of the demonic creatures that invaded the city.
Qin Fengs expression changed, and he listened as his father recounted the events of that year.
Eighteen years ago, Dad left Heavenly City for some business, and as a result, powerful demonic creatures dared to invade the capital of The Great Qian!
Although the Demon Slaying Department intervened and severely injured the demonic creatures, Heavenly City still suffered a one-fifth destruction.
Countless families were shattered, and numerous lives were lost.
And Qin Fengs birth mother forever slept since that day.
When Dad reached this point, he self-blamed, If I hadnt left your mothers side back then, perhaps such consequences wouldnt have occurred.
Qin Feng initially thought that these words were spoken by his father out of guilt.
After all, there were many experts in Heavenly City, and the demonic creatures daring enough to invade Heavenly City and successfully escape under the attack of the Demon Slaying Department were certainly extraordinary.
Even if his father stayed by his mothers side, he would be of no use, and they might even face the same fate together.
However, when he connected his fathers identity with the Chief Ghosts Head, these words took on a profound meaning.
Qin Feng took a deep breath. Originally, he intended to slowly investigate, find flaws in his father, and confirm his true identity.
But after learning the truth about his mothers death and seeing his fathers current guilty look, he wanted to directly ask, Dad, what exactly
Before he could finish speaking, a cry of surprise came from outside the study.
The father and son exchanged glances, hurriedly ran out of the study, and saw a figure flying away in the sky not far away.
Judging by the appearance, it was actually the Lord Ghost Head!
