1018 You’re a Variable
Ye Jiushang looked at his hand and took a deep breath. Then, he continued to tell her about himself.
“The ninth life’s background is a little strange. My biological mother is actually a member of the Succubus Clan like in the eighth life. Although I was born in the Ye Dynasty, I am not of the Ye Dynasty’s royal bloodline. The late emperor is well aware of this matter. As for who my biological father is, I don’t know either.”
“Didn’t you reincarnate with your memories? Why don’t you even know who your biological father is?” The more Xue Fanxin listened, the more she felt that it was mysterious.
Ah Jiu’s life was too strange and unimaginable.
“Whose child I reincarnate as depends on fate. Even if I reincarnate with my memories, there are many things I don’t know. Take my biological parents for example. Before I was born, I didn’t know who they were.”
He had once investigated his background and wanted to know who his biological father was, but no matter how hard he searched, he could not find any clues.
Perhaps even his biological mother did not know about his father.
“You’re right. Parents depend on fate. What happened after that? What happened after your ninth life’s mother gave birth to you?”
“On the 20th day after my birth, she suddenly died and disappeared into thin air. Her body turned into starlight and disappeared from the world.”
He did not know why his biological mothers in his two lives were from the Succubus Clan, nor did he know who his biological father was in his ninth life. However, he could sense the abnormality of the bloodline in his body. He had inherited an extremely powerful bloodline.
However, the power of the bloodline had yet to be unsealed, just like the God’s Seal in Xin’er’s body.
“Why would a perfectly fine person suddenly die?”
“The late emperor did not seem to be surprised by Mother’s death at all, as if he had known about it long ago. When Mother died, he quietly held me. I still remember his gaze and expression at that time even though I was a baby. Although it was filled with reluctance, it was not sad. In a few days, the late emperor conferred upon Mother’s maidservant the title of consort and asked her to take care of me, the current Consort Dowager Jing.”
At this point, Xue Fanxin basically understood Ye Jiushang’s background and could guess his subsequent deeds.
The Master god with the memories of his previous life had experienced nine reincarnations and become the current Ninth Lord, Ye Jiushang.
The ninth life was too important to Ah Jiu, so he had started planning and nurturing his forces since he was young. This was where the Black Shadow Guards, the Nine Cloud Palace, and the Purple Cloud Tower came from.
Xue Fanxin briefly sorted out her emotions before asking the thing she was most concerned about, “Ah Jiu, you didn’t live past thirty years old in your previous eight lives. What about your ninth life? Don’t tell me…”
“In this ninth life… If I had not met you, I would have died. You are a variable in my tribulation.”
A long, long time ago, that Star Diviner had told him that if he wanted to successfully transcend the tribulation, he had to find the Phoenix Star. Otherwise, he had no chance of winning.
Hence, he placed most of his attention and energy on finding the Phoenix Star.
In the beginning, he had indeed come to look for her to transcend the tribulation and that was why he had approached Xin’er.
But now, he really liked her and was in love with her. Therefore, even if the road ahead was the abyss of hell and a life beyond redemption, he had to barge in. Only then could he give her a future.
Xue Fanxin rubbed her aching head, feeling confused.
However, no matter how confused she was, she would work hard to help Ah Jiu transcend the heavenly tribulation.
