The Yandere System in the World of Cultivation - Chapter 58 A shadow from the past

Chapter 58 A shadow from the past

“About his origin, it’s a little strange…” The man hesitated a little.

‘As expected,’ thought the woman, clearly aware that it couldn’t be simple.

“The information we received while researching Victor’s origins is absurd. This man can be described as enigmatic. As a child he was a genius who might appear once in a century, at the age of ten he was already in the middle stage of the Initial Stage(1), but beyond that…

“Did something happen?” – Asked the woman.

The man nodded his head.

“At twelve, he broke through to the late stage, but after that, he suddenly stopped cultivating, spending all his time on his infatuation with a certain girl…”

The woman thought she was going deaf.

‘Developing a crush on a girl at the age of twelve.’ She had no words to describe it…

“This girl was Mu Bing Yun of the Mu clan and they even had a marriage contract. Victor pursued this woman daily, unlike him who was allegedly a trash, she was a genius of her clan, this infatuation seemed to have gone beyond all limits, rumor has it he was even called a stalker since he pursued her for over 9 years.

“It was only recently that he changed. One day he drastically changed as if becoming a different person, the first action he did was to break off his engagement with Mu Bing Yun who he had been pursuing for 9 years, it’s honestly strange…”

“That same night he saved a girl in an alley and killed three bandits, rumor has it he was smiling and laughing like a crazed maniac while killing them as if he enjoyed it.”

“The next day he left his clan and showed up in Tangxiang City to undergo sect selection process and when he passed the cultivation base test, it was revealed that he was already in the late stage of Earthly Ascension(2), this, what baffled both me and the people gathering information, a cultivator cannot possibly break through the realm in a span of barely few days.

“After that, he somehow disappeared from the city and ended up in the Temple of the Dark Moon. How he got there is unknown, except that the woman he saved is also quite unusual. On the test, her cultivation level, just like Victor’s, was at a late stage of Earthly Ascension(2)…

‘How could a woman who supposedly couldn’t defend herself have such a cultivation level?’ Pondered the empress, everything the man had told her was like made up nonsense.

The Empress thought that some of the situations in the man’s story were easy to explain, the persecution and the fact that he had stopped cultivating was only a screen behind which there was a deep calculation.

He just didn’t want to attract attention so he played the idiot who was obsessed with a random girl and once he achieved what he wanted, he dropped the shell behind which he was hiding.

In her opinion this was the type of person with whom it was dangerous to deal, he clearly tolerated the mockery and hatred of the girl he pursued and even liked but at the same time did not say anything…

This made it clear that he could harbor a grudge and when the opportunity presented itself he would stab in the back like a venomous snake.

“What about his family?” – The empress asked.

“It’s also quite strange. He is from the Yang Clan which is located in our empire, his father is Yang Feng and he is the patriarch of the clan and his mother is Su Rong…”

CRACK!

The armrest of the throne suddenly cracked from the Empress’ grip. The man lifted his head and watched as her face contorted at the name Su Rong.

“Describe this woman’s appearance.” – With a bit of anger in her tone, you could tell that she was clearly taking this more seriously than with the question of Victor’s identity.

“White hair, purple eyes, lush figure, you could judge her to be no more than twenty years old by her appearance.”

‘What the fuck!?’ The empress was speechless, at the man’s description, she recalled long-forgotten memories that she never wanted to remember.

‘That bitch is still alive!’ If before her mood was bad then it was even worse now, she knew that Su Rong was damn strong and was at least on par with her or Xue Yan.

‘Is he her son?’ She thought, but soon shook her head, there was no way that she would find a man suitable for her, but Victor and Su Rong’s looks were similar, white hair and also purple eyes…

‘Perhaps he’s from her family.’ The Empress didn’t think that Yang Feng was his father, she couldn’t believe that Su Rong would choose such a weak partner, it meant that like Victor, she was hiding really deep. She reckoned that they were probably working together.

“Where is Su Rong now?” – The empress didn’t notice that every time she said that name or thought of it, she unconsciously released pressure on the man in black causing him to be as pale as paper and he even began to bleed from his nose.

Gulp.

The man swallowed.

“We found nothing, Victor left the clan without her and it seems that after he changed he started avoiding Su Rong, he left the clan without informing her. Only after I arrived at the Yang Clan was I surprised as it was ruined and only when I pressed with your authority did Yang Feng surrender and admit some facts.

“Su Rong is not his wife and Victor is not his son, this was all an act that Su Rong ordered, also Victor is unaware of it, Yang Feng said that Victor chose to avoid her and join a sect, walking the path of cultivation.”

“Only a few days later, Su Rong found out about it and almost killed Yang Feng and went off to look for Victor.”

“HAHAHAHA, of course she’s still that crazy bitch.” – The empress laughed, narrowing her eyes she ordered the man:

“Don’t touch Victor and don’t go near him, soon there will be a great show to watch!” – She clearly understood Su Rong’s character, simply put she was a crazy bitch.

With a wave of her sleeve, she shooed the man away, causing him to sigh heavily.

‘The Empress is clearly in a bad mood today.’ He wiped away a cold sweat.
