Chai Xi Lou was furious:

• "You're insane! Bing Qing never had a mother his entire life! And now you say he has a mother and a brother?"

Clark nodded yes, then said:

• "Trust me, Bing Qi. You really resemble your mother, perhaps even more than your brother."

Suddenly, with all malice, Clark bowed and said:

• "I'm sorry, Wu Bing Qing. It was my mistake that I didn't come to you sooner."

Bing Qing felt Clark's emotions, even though they were just lies, and patted Clark's shoulder, saying:

• "It's alright, Master Zo Long. Let's just go."

Clark stood up, a smile on his face.

While on Chai Xi Lou's face was a very ugly expression.

She was suspicious of Wu Bing Qing: what could she do to him?

Bing Qing, as a man, had wanted to know his origins for a long time. He didn't like living like this as a side character that no one ever cared about, of course.

Now he found value in himself, to obtain his mother's inheritance.

The four flew: Clark, Beho Chenqing, Jin, and Bing Qing.

Chai Xi Lou thought about following them to see what was happening.

But she waited a bit so no one would notice her, of course.

Meanwhile, Wu Bing Qing didn't notice. He was excited to meet his brother and obtain his mother's inheritance.

While they were flying north, everyone was strangely quiet.

Even Bing Qing noticed it.

The faces of those flying with him now carried a frighteningly calm and cold expression.

Wu Bing Qing wondered:

• "Is this the cold intention to kill?"

Wu Bing Qing didn't understand. Throughout his life, no one had ever targeted him or tried to kill him.

He had just lived and developed his strength. Even his combat experience consisted of trivial duels; he had never experienced a real fight: life or death!!!

So now, if there was anyone, any person in Wu Bing Qing's position, they would flee quickly.

Even if Bing Qing realized, the matter was practically over.

They arrived at a huge icy slope. Inside this slope was a massive tunnel...

The four entered the tunnel. Clark walked calmly behind Wu Bing Qing.

Stab!!!

Wu Bing Qing looked at his chest. His mouth began to bleed.

It was Clark's palm! It had pierced him so easily!!!

Soon, Clark removed his mask, and Wu Bing Qing's blood began to pour into the mask, which in turn began to swallow it and emitted a bloody light.

Shocked, Wu Bing Qing said:

• "Just... why?"

And he breathed his last and fell dead.

Meanwhile, Clark put on his mask and successfully became the exact shape of Wu Bing Qing.

Beho Chenqing and Jin looked on coldly. Now they were interested in the celestial island that would only open to the son of Wu Ling Lan.

And now Clark had taken the form of Wu Bing Qing.

After the long walk through the tunnel, a huge celestial island appeared.

Everyone looked around and saw its enormity.

But soon strange people appeared. They possessed immortal cultivation and looked at Clark and his companions in bewilderment.

Clark spoke calmly:

• "Who are you??"

An old man named Wu Ning Bing laughed:

• "I am one of the ancient elders of the Wu clan, and I am called Wu Ning Bing."

The others quieted down, then Jin asked him:

• "Are you the ones who were exiled by Lady Wu Ling Lan?"

Everyone was shocked that someone knew this. Even Clark and Beho Chenqing, who themselves didn't know.

Wu Ning Bing:

• "Yes. In truth, we were imprisoned inside the celestial island belonging to the great lady."

• "Because we targeted the lady during her pregnancy."

Everyone was surprised.

Wu Ning Bing continued:

• "In truth, the close ones in the clan knew about the lady's pregnancy, and of course, I was one of them."

• "But honestly, I had feelings for the lady."

• "But when I learned that she had given her body to a despicable reclusive cultivator in the northern sea, I became furious."

• "Therefore, I targeted her by various means."

• "The lady transferred our problems outside the clan."

• "She fought and fled to the northern sea only to give birth in peace."

• "When she gave birth peacefully, she realized she had to leave her son here and entrusted his care to someone."

• "She couldn't find his father; she actually felt disappointment and anger."

• "When we met again, she imprisoned me in her celestial island, me, my children, and my grandchildren, generation after generation."

• "Until you come and free us, Wu Bing Qing."

Clark laughed internally. The disguise was perfect, and they still didn't know he was just a liar.

Clark and his companions followed them until they reached a mortal-level formation of a huge, black palace, with many floors and many rooms.

Today they would have dinner in honor of the savior's presence: the son of Wu Ling Lan.

Clark looked coldly at the dining table and asked:

• "What are the conditions for the inheritance???"

Wu Ning Bing replied:

• "Well, in fact, the first condition is that you appear so the door opens for entry."

• "Second: You must get our votes to be nominated for the inheritance."

• "The third condition: Your mother hid her will somewhere and placed this thing for you to find, see her, and speak to her one last time."

Of course, Clark began to sob:

• "Oh, Mother! What a great mother you were! If only I were a bit older, I would have protected you from the traitors."

Wu Ning Bing's team looked at each other: Does he mean us?!

But Clark displayed strong emotions. Even though he was disguised and lying, he had to show some credibility so they would at least believe he was Wu Bing Qing.

A beautiful girl entered. She had combed her hair back and tied it with a single knot.

Her face was white like pieces of snow. She had a proportionate body and height consistent with her figure.

But the shocking part: she was mortal, possessing no cultivation rank at all!

She smiled at Clark and sat next to him.

Clark paid no attention to her at all.

While the others were angry. Ning Bing spoke:

• "This is my granddaughter, Wu Shang Lu."

Clark turned to her and smiled:

• "How are you, Lady Shang?"

Shang Lu was, strangely, wearing civilized and new clothing, unlike the rest of her family, who clearly seemed old-fashioned and understood nothing of the outside world. The old-style clothing specific to them was no longer worn by anyone.

While Shang Lan was different, making Clark even more surprised.

Clark spoke with a cute smile:

• "So, who are you, Lady Shang?"

Shang Lan replied:

• "I am actually a merchant outside."

Clark was surprised:

• "But how?"

She looked down, then Shang Lan smiled, saying:

• "In truth, the lady's will has been hidden for a long time. And I, by nature, was mischievous and loved exploration."

• "I had an ambition to leave this desolate place and see humans outside."

• "Coincidentally, I found Lady Ling Lan's will."

• "At that time, I disappeared from the family for a full year. They thought I was dead."

• "While in reality, the lady's will allowed me to leave, because I was saving them and I was also mortal, and I still am mortal."

• "And from time to time, I return to the family."

Clark laughed internally:

• "Does that mischievous girl think I'm a fool?"

• "Of course, and I'm sure of it. The will certainly tasked this girl with searching for Wu Bing Qing without any doubt."

• "And who better than this girl? She has a kind personality and certainly wouldn't even kill an ant."

• "Perhaps even I, if I needed a favor from someone, would choose people similar to this girl's personality."

• "But she could be a good intermediary for me. What do you think, friends?"

Clark was conveying his thoughts to Beho Chenqing and Jin, and they were also thinking the same thing:

• "This family is undoubtedly traitors."

• "We just need to exploit this Shang Lan!!!"

Clark spoke in a cold voice:

• "Master Ning Bing, may I speak with you alone? I want to talk to you about something private."

Ning Bing ushered out all members of his family, and in turn, Beho Chenqing and Jin.

Clark spoke coldly after everyone left:

• "Well, Master Ning Bing, I expect you know what I'm going to tell you."

Wu Ning Bing laughed:

• "Of course! You want us to vote for you, right??"

Clark spoke in a hoarse voice:

• "Otherwise, why would I come to you?"

His face sank into darkness, Ning Bing then said:

• "Well, but everything has its price. I have approached death as you know, and I've become an old man, and I want to see the marriage of my precious granddaughter, Shang Lan."

• "Will you fulfill this desire?"

Clark looked coldly: Clark wouldn't mind! In the end, after he obtains the inheritance, he will kill them all along with Shang Lan.

And Clark hadn't expected that this damned old man would become greedy after a few days!!!

Clark quietly left the room and met Shang Lan.

They were looking at the green mountain slopes. Clark said:

• "What does it feel like to have lived thirty years of your life in this place?"

Shang Lan laughed, her laughter was cute, saying:

• "It felt like a bird whose wings were cut off."

• "It was extremely unfair. I truly felt wronged by my family."

• "But the reality was miserable. After all, the one who put us in such a situation was my grandfather himself."

• "So how can I blame Lady Ling Lan who only wanted to protect you? Do you agree with me?"

Clark smiled:

• "You're right. But in truth, I hold no grudge against you all, and I truly want to free you and return to our clan."

• "Therefore, Shang Lan, will you accept marrying me?"
