Qian Jinglan said up to here and paused. The expression between her brows suddenly became frightened, angry, and sad…
　　Ye Qiu didn’t say a word.
　　He knew that on the night Qian Jinglan left the capital, something big must have happened.
　　Sure enough.
　　He heard Qian Jinglan continue to say： “I don’t know what’s going on. The news that we were going to leave the capital leaked out. Before we even walked out of the capital, we were surrounded.”
　　”Those people were shouting loudly, asking Wushuang to hand you over.”
　　”At that time, facing hundreds or thousands of enemies, Wushuang only said one sentence. If you want to kill my son, you have to step over my dead body.”
　　Hearing this, a great and imposing figure immediately emerged in Ye Qiu’s heart.
　　Qian Jinglan continued to say： “Those people were determined to kill you. In the end, a great battle was inevitable.”
“That night, the capital was a river of blood!”
　　”Wushuang, alone, with one sword, killed 483 people in a row.”
　　”No one could stop him.”
　　”He was in a white robe, with peerless grace！”
　　Saying up to here, an adoring gaze appeared in Qian Jinglan’s eyes. Then she continued to say： “Finally, Wushuang killed a bloody path and took us out of the capital.”
　　”Originally, our family of three could have fled far away. However, those people said that even if we fled to the ends of the earth, they would still kill you.”
　　”Wushuang　was　furious.”
　　“Ordered the Ghost Servant to take us mother and son to Jiangzhou, while he alone returned to the capital city, determined to kill all those who wanted to kill you.”
　　“I remember when we parted, Wu Shuang said to me, if a man can’t protect his wife and children, how can he be called a hero？”
　　“Wu Shuang also said that he was willing to use his life in exchange for the safety of us mother and son！”
　　Speaking of this, Qian Jinglan was in tears.”
　　Ye Qiu’s eyes also turned red.”
　　“On the way that the Ghost Servant escorted us to Jiangzhou, we encountered another attack. He risked his life to protect us mother and son and had his legs cut off by the enemy.”
　　“After that… we got separated.”
　　“Since then, I have never seen the Ghost Servant again.”
　　“At that time, I was worried that the news of our going to Jiangzhou had leaked. For the sake of safety, I then changed my course and went to Suzhou and Hangzhou, wanting to seek the protection of your grandfather for us.”
　　“The Qian family in Suzhou and Hangzhou is a century-old aristocratic family with extremely strict family traditions. I gave birth to a child out of wedlock, which made your grandfather very angry.”
　　“Your grandfather asked who your father was, and I refused to say anything. In the end, I was expelled from the family.”
　　When Qian Jinglan said this, not only did she not feel sad, but a smile appeared on her face.”
　　“Although your grandfather drove me out of the house, in fact, he still loved me in his heart. When I left Suzhou and Hangzhou, he secretly sent someone to give me a large sum of money, several million.”
　　“But I didn’t take a penny. At that time, I only had one thought, no matter what, I must raise you.”
　　“Mom, you’ve worked hard all these years.” Ye Qiu said with red eyes.
　　Qian Jinglan smiled and said, “Haven’t we come through no matter how hard it is？”
　　Ye Qiu asked, “Then what about my father？”
　　Qian Jinglan continued, “After I was driven out of the house, I brought you from Suhang to Jiangzhou and have been waiting for your father to come to us. However, I never waited for him.”
　　“Later, I couldn’t help but inquire about your father’s news through secret channels.”
　　“It was only after a long time that I found out that after Wushuang returned to the capital that night, he went on a killing spree in a rage.”
　　“It is said that three thousand souls died under his sword that night.”
　　“Among them, there were no shortage of top dignitaries in the capital and masters of various forces.”
　　“Zhuge Qing, who spread that you were a disaster star from the sky, was also said to have been split in half by Wushuang with a single sword.”
Since then, people have called Wushuang the killing god.
　　“And Wushuang’s name has also become a taboo in the capital.”
　　Ye Qiu was stunned.
　　One person, one sword, killed three thousand people！
　　What a heroic feat is this？
　　I’m afraid that even the number one on the Heaven Ranking, Marquis Xiao Jiu, couldn’t do it, right？
　　“Not only that, Wushuang also killed all the people who had seen our mother and son.”
　　“He did this to protect us.”
　　“Otherwise, we wouldn’t have lived so peacefully in Jiangzhou for the past twenty years.”
　　Qian Jinglan said, “Qiu’er, your father has made enemies with the world for you. So you can hate anyone, but you must not hate him.”
　　”Mom, where did my father go in the end？ Is he… dead？” Ye Qiu asked in a deep voice.
　　”I don’t know where he went. There has been no news of Wushuang since that night.”
　　”Some people say that Wushuang is dead, killed under the siege of countless masters, and didn’t even leave a whole body when he died. But I have a feeling that Wushuang is not dead！”
Qian Jinglan’s emotions suddenly became excited, and she said, I have been waiting in Jiangzhou for so many years, always waiting for Wushuang. I believe he is not dead! Wushuang is definitely not dead!
　　Ye Qiu felt very sad. So many masters besieged Ye Wushuang, and the hope of Ye Wushuang surviving was extremely small.
　　But he couldn’t say such words.
　　It can be seen that in Qian Jinglan’s heart, her father is not dead yet, and she is still waiting for her father to come to Jiangzhou.
　　”Mom, no matter where my father goes, I will find him.” Ye Qiu said solemnly.
　　”Qiu’er, don’t look for your father. If your identity is exposed, there will definitely be many people coming to kill you, and all that Wushuang has done will be in vain.”
　　”But…”
　　Qian Jinglan said, “Wushuang didn’t hesitate to make enemies with the world just to protect you for a lifetime. Qiu’er, listen to me, don’t go looking for Wushuang, okay？”
　　Looking at Qian Jinglan’s worried face, Ye Qiu nodded and said, “Okay, I won’t go looking for my father. I believe that one day, he will come to Jiangzhou to find us.”
　　“Well.” Qian Jinglan wiped away her tears, put away her sadness, and said, “Qiu’er, I didn’t tell you about Wushuang before because I thought you were too young and afraid that if you knew, you would not be able to help but look for Wushuang.”
“Now that you have grown up and become mature, I tell you about Wushuang, hoping that you can cherish your current life, strive to become an excellent doctor, and not disappoint your father’s expectations.
　　“Qiu’er, do you understand my good intentions？”
　　“I understand. Mom, don’t worry. I will definitely become an excellent doctor.”
　　Although Ye Qiu said so, he was secretly vowing in his heart that one day, he would go to the capital and kill those who besieged his father back then！”
　　“Mom, since my father could kill so many people, his martial arts must be very powerful, right？” Ye Qiu asked curiously.
　　“Well.” Qian Jinglan nodded.
　　“Is he as powerful as Xiao Jiu？ Mom, do you know Xiao Jiu, the Champion Marquis？” Ye Qiu asked again.
　　“Xiao Jiu？” Qian Jinglan showed disdain at the corner of her mouth and said, “A hundred Xiao Jius are no match for your father.”
　　“No way？” Ye Qiu didn’t believe it.
　　“Don’t you believe it. More than twenty years ago, your father was not only the number one son in the capital but also the recognized number one master in the world.”
　　Qian Jinglan then said, “I’ll tell you another secret. Your father is the heir of the Ye family, the number one family in the capital.”
　　What！
　　Ye Qiu was dumbfounded.
