Grandpa, Situ Yan?

Emperor Bei Chen gazed at Bai Li Hong Zhuang, and he didn't want to disturb the current atmosphere. However, this matter was truly important, and he needed to inform Hong Zhuang before returning to Tian Gang Sect, so she could be mentally prepared.

"Wife, this matter might exceed your expectations," Emperor Bei Chen said slowly.

In fact, when he first heard his master talk about his past, he was also filled with astonishment. But as they delved deeper into their conversations, everything seemed to connect, like a puzzle falling into place. Now, both he and his master believed that Hong Zhuang was his master's granddaughter, but true confirmation still required Hong Zhuang's participation.

Upon hearing Emperor Bei Chen's words, Bai Li Hong Zhuang frowned, looking at him with concern. "Something happened to my parents?"

Seeing the instant tension in Bai Li Hong Zhuang's nerves, Emperor Bei Chen quickly reassured her, gently caressing her and saying, "Wife, don't worry, it's not about that."

Bai Li Hong Zhuang breathed a sigh of relief, and the nervousness in her sparkling phoenix-like eyes diminished slightly. "Then what is it about?"

She sat up straight, able to sense from Emperor Bei Chen's tone of speech that this matter was far from simple. Otherwise, he wouldn't have prepared her mentally beforehand.

"I believe that my master might be your grandfather," Emperor Bei Chen said, pursing his lips. His dazzling starry eyes gazed at Bai Li Hong Zhuang, penetrating her heart.

Upon hearing this, Bai Li Hong Zhuang couldn't help but freeze, her clear eyes reflecting surprise and disbelief. Her expression was filled with confusion and doubt. "Bei Chen, are you saying that the Sect Master might be my grandfather?"

"How is that possible? Didn't you say before that my mother was an outstanding disciple of the Sun Moon Palace? And you've never known about the existence of my grandparents?" she continued.

In the Holy Profound Continent, where cultivators were prevalent, dangers lurked everywhere, and the possibility of losing one's life was great. That's why many children ended up as orphans, so such situations were not uncommon.

Based on the information Emperor Bei Chen had gathered earlier, Bai Li Hong Zhuang believed that Mu Ling Bing had been adopted by the Sun Moon Palace, and her parents were no longer alive. But now, how could she suddenly have a connection with the Sect Master of Tian Gang Sect?

With the Sect Master's wisdom, how could he not know about his own child?

Seeing Bai Li Hong Zhuang's perplexed expression, Emperor Bei Chen explained, "The reasons behind this are somewhat complicated. Even my master didn't consider this possibility at first, but he came to this conjecture later."

Bai Li Hong Zhuang silently looked at Emperor Bei Chen, waiting for his explanation. Both Emperor Bei Chen and the Sect Master were not people who spoke without a purpose, so if they said so, there must be convincing reasons behind it.

"This matter starts from when my master was young..." Emperor Bei Chen held Bai Li Hong Zhuang tightly and slowly began recounting his master's past.

Bai Li Hong Zhuang listened attentively to Emperor Bei Chen's words. However, the more she heard, the more astonished she became. She never expected that the Sect Master had such a complicated past, filled with emotional twists and turns, which truly troubled her.

However, she also greatly admired Mu Jinse and felt sorry for her. A misunderstanding had caused a delay of several decades. Compared to the Sect Master's regret over the years, Mu Jinse must have endured these years full of hatred and suffering.
