How was this related to Yu Aofeng?
"That's right." Professor Song blinked at Yu Huang and smiled as he said, "That child called Sheng Xiao is Yu Aofeng's soul clone, right?"
Professor Song knew everything, so there was no need for Yu Huang to hide Sheng Xiao's identity from him.
Yu Huang nodded. "Yes, strictly speaking, he and Yu Aofeng are indeed the same person."
"As expected." Professor Song leaned back in his chair and recalled, "Back then, Yu Aofeng turned into an alchemy bone and was refined into a Divine Transforming Pill by Prime Emperor Ze An for the Patriarch of the Divine Feather Phoenix Clan, Jing Huang, to consume. After Jing Feng, who was a Prime Emperor, obtained Yu Aofei's power, she was about to break through and become a Divine Master. However, Jing Huang would rather her soul dissipate than accept her lover's bone and become a Divine Master. She used the Soul Dissipation Incantation on the spot in exchange for Yu Aofeng's resurrection."
"When Yu Aofeng woke up and discovered that Jing Huang had long disappeared from the world, he was in so much anguish that he wanted to die. He fought a huge battle with Prime Emperor Ze An and killed him in a desolate place, causing his power to disperse in the universe. Then, he began to search the world for a way to allow a person to gather her soul again. One day, Yu Aofong received news about me from somewhere, so he shuttled through space to the Cang Lang Continent and begged to see me."
"At that time, I had already established Cang Lang Academy. I had heard about him and Patriarch Jing Huang, so I admired him quite a bit. When he came to see me, I naturally treated him warmly. That day, we sat in the courtyard outside."
As Professor Song pointed at the overgrown courtyard outside, he recalled the scene of Yu Aofeng visiting that day.
Yu Huang looked into the courtyard. When she thought about how twelve thousand years ago, Yu Aofeng had also stood in the courtyard and spoken to the gentleman in front of her, Yu Huang's heart tingled.
Yu Aofeng…
Yu Huang had heard about Yu Aofeng's love for Jing Huang from many people, causing her heart to ache when she heard the name "Yu Aofeng."
"He just sat there and told me, "Mr. Song, they all say that your eyes can see the future, so help me see if Jing Huang will come back."
"I told her that when a person dies, it's like a lamp going out, let alone their soul dissipating."
"But he was very stubborn and affectionate. He asked me, 'Sir, everyone says that the heavens are omnipotent. Then tell me, can I I pray to the heavens in exchange for her revival?'"
"I even told him: Your Highness, everything has a price. Even if you want Prime Emperor Jing Huang to be revived, can you bear the price?"
"He said yes."
Professor Song continued, "That day, I was moved by His Highness's deep love. At the cost of sacrificing my cultivation, I opened the Eternal Eye and saw your figure on the Holy Spirit Continent twelve thousand years later. When I told His Highness that you would exist in twelve thousand years, His Highness smiled. Not long after he left, I heard that His Highness gave up the chance to become a Divine Master and was suppressed at the foot of the Soul Formation Mountain."
Yu Huang choked on her tears as she said, "He knew that I would appear in the future, so he took the initiative to give up the chance to become a Divine Master and dispersed half of his cultivation just to pray to the heavens for a chance to let me return to the human world, even if the process took 12,000 years?"
"That's right." Professor Song nodded heavily as he said sadly, "I heard that until today, on the Soul Formation Mountain of the Demon Beast Continent, nine bolts of lightning will flash every noon and midnight. That's the torture he endured day and night in order for you to return to the human world!"
Pa!
Yu Huang's tears fell on the muddy ground.
She didn't want to cry, but she couldn't hold back her tears.
Professor Song asked Yu Huang, "Do you know why Sheng Xiao appeared in the Holy Spirit Continent?"
Yu Huang shook her head.
"He hid half of his soul in a snake egg of the Green Python Clan in advance. He also warned the Patriarch of the Green Python Clan that he had to protect the green Python egg for generations and could only hatch it after 12,000 years. That egg was Sheng Xiao's mother, your mother-in-law. Do you think your mother-In-law and your father-in-law met by chance?"
Yu Huang said, "Could it be that my mother-in-law and father-in-law's encounter was also Yu Aofeng's arrangement?"
"That's right." Professor Song marveled, "Back then, the Green Python Clan was almost exterminated by the enemy. It was His Highness Yu Aofeng who helped. Yu Yaofeng had done them a huge favor. In order to repay their kindness, they fulfilled what His Highness had instructed them to do. A portion of His Highness's soul was hidden in your mother-in-law's body. The Green Python Clansmen found an opportunity to send your mother-In-law to the Holy Spirit Continent and let her marry a male cultivator there. Then, she gave birth to Her Highness' split soul."
"As for your father-in-law, he was only lucky enough to ascend to the Demon Beast Continent at the right time. His Highness did all of this just to grow up with you in the alternate world."
Since Yu Huang didn't want Professor Song to see her red eyes, she licked her lips and lowered her head.
Professor Song looked at Yu Huang lovingly as he told Yu Huang, "All these years, I've vaguely felt that 'it' was about to wake up. It seems to have been searching for my whereabouts. I was afraid that I would suddenly die one day, and the Eternal Eye would disappear, so I wanted to give it to a suitable person."
"Therefore, I found Jing Rujiu, who was also proficient in divination. That child also sensed a world-destroying crisis. After hearing me tell the true colors of 'it', she agreed to my plan without hesitation."
"What plan?" Yu Huang was a little nervous for some reason.
Professor Song said, "We used the Eternal Eye to make a spirit embryo and let it grow and be born in Jing Rujiu's stomach. However, the spiritual power of the Eternal eye was too strong, so Jing Ruli almost died when she gave birth. Fortunately, the child was successfully born."
Hearing this, Yu Huang subconsciously retorted, "That's not right. If the original Yu Huang had the Eternal Eye, then why did she have self-awareness and fall in love with Xuanyuan Jing? A spirit embryo shouldn't have self-awareness!"
Professor Song didn't answer this question directly. Instead, he asked Yu Huang, "Yu Huang, during the Doomsday Era, you didn't feel any hunger or pain, right?"
Yu Huang was stunned, then she nodded gently.
"That's because I found two wisps of your soul power from the three thousand worlds and fused that portion of your soul into the spirit embryo. This is also why Yin Huang's body and soul were very weak after she was born."
Professor Song smiled at Yu Huang as he said, "Yu Huang, Yin Mingjue and Jing Rujiu's child is actually you. To be precise, she's a part of you. Even Yin Huang herself didn't know about this. Only Jing Rujiu, your father, and I knew."
After knowing this shocking truth, Yu Huang was extremely stunned.
No wonder she felt a strong father-daughter connection with Yin Mingjue when she saw him. So they were father and daughter in the first place.
But…
Yu Huang's expression became strange when she thought about how Sheng Xiao, who was also a soul clone, had only loved her from the beginning to the end, but a part of her soul had actually fallen in love with Xuanyuan Jing.
What kind of taste in men did she have?
Yu Huang only wanted to poke her own eyes out.
