"Since I was a trash, my mother became useless to him! So he dismissed my mother as his wife and married another! On the day he married someone else, my name was removed from the genealogy and I was driven out of the family. At the same time, his new wife had me thrown into the Forest of No Return."
With every sentence Yun Xiao spoke, Yun Luofeng's heart ached more. She had never seen a father who was so cruel as to drive his own son out of the family and leave him outside to die.
"Yun Xiao."
Stretching out her arms and gently hugging Yun Xiao, Yun Luofeng lowered her eyelids and said word by word: "Don't worry, I will avenge you. No one can get away with hurting you."
No matter how powerful an enemy he was facing, she would always stand by his side even at the expense of her own life. Yun Xiao paused and then, he reached out his arms and embraced Yun Luofeng, a faint smile on his cold face.
"I have you now. That's enough."
Due to the torture he suffered when he was a child, he had a cold and unrelenting heart. However, only when he was facing the girl in his arms, he would put down all his defenses and submit himself to all her orders.
It seemed that something occurred to Yun Xiao and he continued: "It seems that the Xiao Family didn't know that the woman had thrown me into the Forest of No Return. Now, they are looking for me all over the Continent."
The forest was called 'No Return' because nobody could return from it alive. If the Xiao Family knew he had been thrown into the forest, they would have thought that he had died there and would not search for his whereabouts.
"They're looking for you?" Yun Luofeng raised her eyebrows and sneered, "They drove you out of the family back then. Why are they looking for you?"
Yun Xiao shook his head. "I don't know." After saying this, he paused, adding, "No matter why they are looking for me, I will not go back to the Xiao Family. Here is the only place I should stay."
Yun Luofeng stroked her chin: "Do those people know about your current strength?"
"I wear a mask outside, so nobody knows I'm the Ghost Emperor."
Hearing his words, Yun Luofeng pondered. Since those people didn't know the real strength of Yun Xiao, why were they looking for him? Yun Luofeng believed that they must be doing it for a reason!
"Let's just roll with the punches. Yun Xiao, I will always stand by your side, no matter what kind of difficulties you encounter."
Listening to the girl's words, a wave of warmth swept through the man, and his dark eyes were no longer cold.
"I don't want to see the people of the Xiao Family, just because... I don't want to let those people pollute my eyes and my hands," with a serious face, the man gazed at Yun Luofeng, "My eyes will only look at you, my hands will only hug you, and my strength will only be used to protect you. I don't care about anyone else."
Yun Xiao was not good at speaking sweet words, but every word he said was so sincere and hearty that people couldn't help but believe it.
Yun Luofeng said, a smile hovering on her lips, "Yun Xiao, you don't want those people to pollute your hands, but I can't forget that they used to bully you. Whoever hurt you, I will let them repent forever!"
