Chapter 336: Severing Ties (3)
The Old Man’s eyebrows twitched, and he looked at him coldly without speaking.
"Perhaps it’s because you’ve never been willing to believe that my mother is dead, so you kept me in the Yan Family, by your side, hoping that one day she might appear again?" Yan Sijue smiled slightly.
The Old Man’s hands trembled fiercely!
"What do you know?" He finally changed his previously calm demeanor, his face turning ashen!
"Grandfather, as I said before, everything I have done is just to live well, even now, I still stand by those words. If it weren’t for your relentless pressure, I really wouldn’t want to tear my face off with you. No matter what, I am grateful that you took me out of the Ghost Market, even though you regret doing so, even though you were ill-intentioned from the beginning and never showed much kindness to me. But, let’s separate matters as they are, so for everything you’ve done to me, I can let it go, even if you attempted to assassinate me, or had someone inject drugs into me, I can let it go."
Yan Sijue’s voice shifted, and a bit of anxiety crept into the Old Man’s expression.
"Yan Sijue!" He shouted his name viciously.
"Grandfather, you used to be very powerful indeed. But, you are old." Yan Sijue said softly, "You really are old, you were already old thirty years ago!"
The Old Man heard the implied meaning in his words, and his expression became even more ashen!
"...Do you know your mother’s whereabouts?" His gaze appeared somewhat fierce.
"I don’t know." Yan Sijue’s voice was somewhat ethereal, "Long before I left the Ghost Market, she already..."
He seemed unwilling to continue, took a deep breath, and looked at the Old Man: "Grandfather, allow me to boldly guess, do you have some unspeakable feelings towards my mother?"
The Old Man’s hands clenched suddenly, his eyes widened!
Yet Yan Sijue didn’t care about his gaze, and continued to speak on his own: "I look very much like her, don’t I? So for so many years, every time you saw me, your heart was conflicted? Mother’s beauty then could captivate your son Yan Feiyu, it wouldn’t be impossible for it to captivate you too. Back then you were only in your fifties, still believing your strength hadn’t waned, naturally thinking you were also qualified to have her."
"What do you know?" The Old Man’s voice trembled intensely.
"What should be known is known, what shouldn’t be known... is also fully known." He smiled faintly, "You coveted her, and my uncle noticed it, so he discreetly sent mother to your bed... snatching your son’s woman, haha... Grandfather, do you think you are Tang Xuanzong or something? And my uncle, truly remarkable, no wonder he’s been so trusted and valued by you over the years."
"Si Jue, you..." After all, these are disgraceful past events, the Old Man couldn’t even maintain his dignity.
"This situation continued for several years." Yan Sijue spoke, with a chilling coldness seeping between his words!
The Old Man just trembled, his eyes finally revealing some weakness.
But Yan Sijue continued narrating calmly: "Mother was weak in character, initially becoming a hidden lover for my father, it was already very painful, and then being possessed by you... You were at ease, but she was tormented extremely. Finally, you were unwilling and wanted to monopolize her, so you sent a few mistresses to Father, allowing him to gradually neglect mother."
