Chapter 6 | Agreement

"Light Blades?" That name seemed the exact opposite of the Shadow Guards.

"Light Blades are different from Shadow Guards who stand in the darkness. They stand in front of the crowd in the public's eye. Unless necessary, they won't let others see blood. It was created by one of my friends from Jianghu." Qi Xutian seemed to know the answer to Qi Mingyue's question but never answered.

However, Qi Mingyue didn't forget, "Father hasn't answered my question yet, why am I so special to you?"

Qi Mingyue looked at Qi Xutian's calculating eyes but couldn't understand what he was thinking, "Do you really want to know?"

"Yes." Qi Mingyue nodded, thinking that Qi Xutian's attitude at that moment was slightly strange.

"I'm afraid that it'd be a long story, MingEr will have to be patient..." Qi Xutian laid down, his lips curved into a mocking smile. Seeing that, Qi Mingyue guessed that it probably had something to do with what happened twenty years ago.

He raised his lips and exposed a sly smile, "I almost forgot to tell Father. In my past life, I was already twenty-five. Do you think a thirty-year-old like me would lack patience?"

Qi Xutian raised his brows then laughed out loud, "A thirty-year-old soul trapped in a five-year-old body, no wonder MingEr is dissatisfied. Seems like I took advantage of you..."

"That's right, you took advantage of me, my cheap Father. You can start your story now." Qi Mingyue nestled in his arms and settled in a comfortable position. Then he looked at the face that no longer had a cold expression on it, then smiled.

Qi Xutian seemed to notice something, then retracted his smile as he looked at him meaningfully, and held him tighter, "MingEr is definitely special to me. Do you still remember what I said before, that you're like me?"

"Yes, Father did say." Thinking back to their conversation on the hundredth-day celebration, he did say something like that, Qi Mingyue suddenly came to a realization and began in surprise, "Is it..."

"Seems like MingEr guessed it," Qi Xutian continued: "That year, Tan Wu said something that angered the previous Emperor which caused him to be imprisoned in the palace. Everyone in the palace was conflicted about it, but still, the previous Emperor sent me out of the palace to an isolated manor, wanting me to die there quietly..." Saying that, Qi Xutian gave a smile in loathing, "Does MingEr know what Tan Wu said?"

Qi Mingyue guessed a few things but still shook his head. He knew that if it was similar to what happened on the hundredth-day celebration, then he must be the same as him, Tan Wu had calculated his destiny as well, "What did he say about Father?"

Qi Xutian gave an expression of devilish charm, the madness in his eyes hinted at a smile as if he had immersed himself into the past, "He said that I have the life of an Emperor but I also have a cultivator's heart. Half man, half-demon - emotionless and bloodthirsty. Destined to kill my father! Killing all of my blood relatives!"

Qi Mingyue was shocked by those words, killing his father and relatives.... It was the same destiny as his mother. Pausing for a moment, he suddenly laughed out loud, "Father! Together, you kill a father and I kill a mother, isn't this amusing?" After speaking, he seemed to find it interesting and continued to laugh.

"That's right, it is very amusing." Qi Xutian smiled gently, neither of them found this fate improper. If it was necessary, then they would kill. It was only a matter of time. Holding Qi Mingyue in front of him, he smiled in a slightly evil manner, "Now you know why you are special. To be so similar to me, of course, I don't want you to get hurt. Father is only interested in MingEr...." saying that he leaned down and kissed his soft lips.
