She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement

Zhan Wuya told Sheng Xiao, "My mentor is already quite old, so he has as many as a hundred disciples under his name. Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui was one of them, but many of my senior brothers and sisters have died already. I joined the sect late and was my mentor's last disciple, so I have never seen many of my senior brothers and sisters. But every Sacrifice Festival, my mentor will bring me and the other senior brothers and sisters to pay respects to those who died."

"Because I have to toast my fallen senior brothers and sisters every year, I have some impression of that senior brother called Sheng Pinghui. I remember that about twenty years ago, I asked my mentor about Sheng Pinghui's deeds and he told me about it."

Next, Zhan Wuya told Sheng Xiao what he knew without reservation. "Sheng Pinghui was a Beast Tamer who had ascended from a small world. At that time, my second senior brother happened to be working in Ascension Town and was an examiner. Sheng Pinghui performed well in Ascension Town. After he successfully completed the mission, my second senior brother wrote him a letter of recommendation and asked him to study in the War God Clan."

"Just like that, Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui became a disciple of the outer sect of the War God Clan. The next year, a fiendish cultivator barged into the War God City where the War God Clan was located and kill many innocent people. He didn't even let off children on the streets. Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui happened to be present. He clearly knew that he wasn't a match for the fiendish cultivator, but he risked his life to fight the fiendish cultivator. Fortunately, my mentor arrived in time and saved Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui, who was on the verge of death."

"My mentor was impressed with Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui's character, so he made an exception and took him in as a disciple. He brought Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui back to the War God Mountain to become an inner clan core disciple. Later, Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui didn't disappoint my mentor's expectations. He became a student of Cang Lang Academy's inner academy and broke through to the Grand Master realm within three years. If not for that accident, Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui would have broken through to the Prime Master realm and become a respected big shot of the War God Clan…"

Sheng Xiao asked anxiously, "What accident?"

As Yu Huang raised her head and glanced at the moth diagram on the wall, she heard Zhan Wuya say, "More than a thousand years ago, an extremely powerful fiendish cultivator appeared on the Cang Lang Continent. Everyone called him the faceless fiendish cultivator. This faceless fiendish cultivator killed people like ants. At that time, many experts were secretly killed by him. Later on, my mentor's father killed him in Ascension Town. It's said that even now, the resentment of those demonic creatures still lingers outside the mystic realm of Ascension Town."

Upon hearing this, Yu Huang thought of the vengeful spirits that Lin Jiansheng had successfully Purified Spirit when he was training in Ascension Town.

So those vengeful spirits were the remnant power of the faceless fiendish cultivator.

"But a hundred and seventy years ago, the faceless fiendish cultivator actually secretly revived and made a comeback. On the day before the Sacrifice Festival, he secretly infiltrated the War God Clan and secretly possessed the body of a disciple of the War God Clan. Coincidentally, this disciple was Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui…"

At this point, Zhan Wuya didn't want to continue anymore.

He believed that the smart Sheng Xiao and Yu Huang could guess what happened after that.

Sheng Xiao had guessed it too. "That fiendish cultivator possessed my grandfather and walked into the War God Clan in my grandfather's body. Then, he harmed his fellow disciples and was killed by Prime Emperor Jiuxiao, right?"

Zhan Wuya nodded. "…Something like that."

"Actually, that's not all he did. What's even more outrageous is that in order to insult the War God Clan, the faceless fiendish cultivator actually kidnapped my mentor's eldest daughter, Zhan Jianxue's elder sister. The faceless fiendish cultivator crippled my mentor's eldest daughter's cultivation and threw her into the slums. Then, she was raped and died with hatred."

"After my mentor found his eldest daughter's corpse, in his anger, he had no choice but to kill Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui along with that fiendish cultivator. What was heartbreaking was that after that battle, that faceless fiendish cultivator escaped, but Senior Brother Sheng Pinghui was dead

"Actually, many people are relieved that Sheng Pinghui is dead." Zhan Wuya looked at Sheng Xiao calmly. "If he was still alive, he would have been ostracized and bullied."

Sheng Xiao understood this, but he still felt heartbroken about his grandfather's situation.

"It seems like my grandfather was unlucky enough to be chosen by the faceless fiendish cultivator." Sheng Xiao closed his eyes as he leaned against the sofa. His heart sank when he thought of his father's regretful expression when he mentioned his grandfather.

He could understand that Prime Emperor Jiuxiao had killed Sheng Pinghui in order to avenge his daughter and his clansmen.

But he still couldn't accept it.

"I really didn't know that you and Sheng Pinghui were related by blood. If my mentor knew, he would have come to apologize to you personally." Zhan Wuya lamented, "Even now, my mentor feels guilty whenever he mentions Sheng Pinghui."

Sheng Xiao said, "Please don't tell Prime Emperor Jiuxiao about this."

Zhan Wuya was puzzled. "Why?"

Yu Huang explained for Sheng Xiao, "Although Prime Emperor Jiuxiao had no choice but to kill his grandfather, he was Sheng Xiao's grandfather after all. He can accept it rationally, but not emotionally. People from small worlds are timid, so we can't forgive people who killed our family members."

Then, Yu Huang stood up and held Sheng Xiao's hand to leave.

Before leaving, Yu Huang glanced at the painting on the wall from the corner of her eye again. Then, she said to Zhan Wuya, "You've already pulled yourself together and matured, so I don't think that moth painting is suitable for the current you. If it has a special meaning to you, taking it down and safekeeping it properly is a better idea."

When Zhan Wuya heard Yu Huang's words, he subconsciously looked at the painting.

Zhan Wuya only walked to the painting after Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao left. As he reached out to touch the painting, he frowned and muttered softly, "What does Yu Huang mean?" Zhan Wuya was very smart, so he wasn't stupid enough to think that Yu Huang was just being nosy.

She was definitely hinting at something.

However, Zhan Wuya had carried this painting with him for more than ten years and had never noticed anything strange.

Was Yu Huang overthinking things?Thɪs chapter is updated by (ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt

The two of them didn't talk on the way home. When they got home, Sheng Xiao asked Yu Huang, "Why have you been staring at that painting?"

​ Yu Huang said, "That painting makes my hair stand on end. I feel uncomfortable all over just by looking at it." Yu Huang rubbed her arms and frowned as she said, "That painting is strange. If it were me, I definitely wouldn't hang such a painting in the living room. It would make me feel like I was being monitored by it day and night."

"I see. However, Zhan Wuya might not be able to accept your suggestion." Zhan Wuya was a stubborn person and wasn't the kind of person who would obediently take down his painting just because of Yu Huang's words.

As Sheng Xiao looked through the window of the living room on the first floor and in the direction of the training area, he said in confusion, "If my grandfather was killed by Prime Emperor Jiuxiao back then, then that Succubus Witch couldn't be the culprit. What do you think is the relationship between the Succubus Witch and my grandfather?"

After Yu Huang pushed open the window, she looked at the training area and said with a sneer, "There are three possibilities."

Sheng Xiao said, "Huh?" There were three more possibilities?

Yu Huang extended her index finger and said, "One, more than a hundred years ago, the weak Succubus Witch accidentally met your grandfather and was taken care of by him. Then, it awakened its wisdom and learned the Holy Spirit Continent's language and your grandfather's cultivation technique."

She extended her middle finger and continued, "Second, the Succubus Witch is not really a Succubus Witch, but a monster transformed from the remnant energy of the faceless fiendish cultivator!"

After Yu Huang looked up at Sheng Xiao, her lips quivered for a moment before she said, "Third, it's your grandfather."

Sheng Xiao took a step back.

But then he quickly stopped and stabilized himself.

"You…" Sheng Xiao looked at Yu Huang with a complicated gaze as he asked curiously," What's wrong with your brain? How dare you suspect that the ugly Succubus Witch is my grandfather? "

"What's impossible about that?" Yu Huang said, "Have you forgotten Anna's experience of almost becoming one with the spider? Sheng Xiao, if you want to know the real relationship between the Succubus Witch and your grandfather, it's very simple. Let's go straight to the forest, catch the Succubus Witch, and interrogate it."

"But it escaped into the depths of the forest."

"Then let's gather the big shots in the inner academy and go to the depths of the forest to capture the Succubus Witch." Yu Huang pouted as she looked towards the third floor. "There's a ready-made Prime Master big shot here. It would be a waste not to use him."
