45 years ago, Takeru Sakai came to hide in Lui Village. He vainly hoped that the Japanese Imperial Army would make a comeback, so he kept the virus made from the lab, and waited for the counterattack of their army.

But time passed day by day, Takeru Sakai realized that day wouldn’t come— He thought about suicide but he was not so courageous to cut his belly. Therefore, he persuaded himself that it would definitely come true someday.

He seized the weakness that Immortal Huang was greedy. So he applied the knowledge he learned in the military school to help that woman purposely make a mystery of simple things in Lui Village. Their purpose was to fool the villagers then brainwashed them gradually.

“Humph! You schemed to spread the virus you took out and made a nonexistent legend of sea lord—Sacrificing living persons just for deifying the old female immortal! Then you passed the antidote, so nobody else got infected after that!”

Grandpa A Bao…Takeru Sakai kept silent with words of blame. Everyone else tried not to receive the truth… but they had to believe it.

“It turns out that this is the truth…We, what did we do that year! What a sin we committed!”

Several seniors covered their faces, crying in a sad voice.

They dared not see Lui Hai or Lui Yiyun, dared not face the persons here— they could only kneel down to Lui Hai, kowtowing with tears.

“Lui Hai! We’re so sorry! Damn us! You should kill we old guys! But don’t hurt those young people, please! Forgive them! It’s not their fault! They are innocent and still young!”

“Sorry!”

“Damn us!”

“Lui Hai… Forgive them! Please!”

Lui Hai looked at these people, laughing with sorrow, “They are innocent and still young? I cried that year, I knelt down and walked on Hear-The-Sea Cliff with my knees. I cried till throat turned raw, I knelt in front of you, making kowtows to everyone, but you… did you forgive my mother?”

The seniors didn’t talk but kept making kowtows. The middle-aged, strong and young men followed.

Every family here had spoken badly about Lui Hai’s family privately saying he was not welcomed. Being influenced by what they heard and saw, thinking about these years… had they ever called this man ‘uncle’ or ‘brother’ even though he had the same surname as them?

No… never ever.

Lui Hai stretched out to point at Takeru Sakai, “You started the trouble and everything else! Old fart, how dare you be peaceful and happy living in this world!”

Takeru Sakai looked quiet. His appearance of that year showed up again, after taking off his clothes, “Lui Hai, yes, I fooled the village. So what? If you guys were not stupid, ignorant and self-concerned, would I do so much? If you didn’t have a bad conscience, how would you be suspicious, distrusted and atrocious? Haha! But Lui Hai, you don’t think…”

Furious, Lui Hai threw a heavy punch on Takeru Sakai’S face.

It hit his mouth. A heavy fist hit an old body, Takeru Sakai’s teeth were almost knocked out.

But it didn’t release all of Lui Hai’s anger. He pressed Takeru Sakai, a second fist had been punched into his face.

One, two, three fists… until Ma Houde had his fellows stop Lui Hai!

“Officer Ma, the old man fainted.”

Ma Houde nodded, he felt uncomfortable but didn’t know why… Anyway, since Lui Chaosheng and Takeru Sakai admitted that thing, then there was nothing else to tell.

Lui Hai still held a grudge against that thing and found the secret between Lui Chaosheng and Takeru Sakai, then held this to scare them and revenge all the other villagers… this reason made sense.

“Lui Hai, you goddam demon!” unexpectedly Luo Aiyu voiced with hate, “If you’re gonna take revenge on them, do it! But you almost caused that I’ve been thrown down the cliff! One night of love is worth a hundred years of friendship. Did I do anything wrong to you?! You even treat me this way! Damn you!!”

“Yeah, damn me! But did you do a wife’s duty since you married here? I have had enough of your disgusting character. You punched and swore at my family, I can’t bear you any longer! Your good fortune has been spent on these people that failed to throw you down!!”

“You, you…you!!” Luo Aiyu panted for breath because of the anger, “Officer, you saw that this guy committed a murder! Catch him!! And shoot him dead!”

“I know what we should do!” Ma Houde snorted, “Are you a cop?”

At the same time, Lui Chaosheng gazed at Lui Hai, begging piteously, “Brother Lui, I promised you and told all of them the story… you should take out the antidote quickly.”

‘There’s an antidote!’

‘There’s an antidote!’

Both parties shifted their attention to Lui Hai.

At this time, Lui Chaosheng made a kowtow, “Brother Lui, I know I deserve to die. I’m greedy and mean… after I came back, Takeru Sakai told me everything of that year but I didn’t reveal that; rather, I desired wealth and honor greatly and helped him with this virus…I made the antidote unintentionally but I forgot the recipe and can’t make it anymore. Can you give it back to me?”

Watching Lui Chaosheng imploring, Ma Houde voiced low, “Lui Hai, you confessed your crimes and know clearly what you are doing. So you should give him the antidote! I know you still hate them but those young men are innocent! And these seniors should be punished by law! Don’t make a mistake… besides that, think about your daughter. Do you want her to live with a bad reputation, knowing that she has a murderer for a father?”

Lui Hai moved his lips. He seemed to be struggling.

He took a deep breath, raising his head. After a long time, he turned to Lui Yiyun slowly.

The girl’s tears had dropped since some time ago.

Lui Hai smiled faintly, “Yiyun, I hid it with the wine I placed, go take it out… this policeman was right, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t let you suffer the infamy. And take care of your grandpa.”

“Dad… don’t.” Lui Yiyun kept shaking her hand and cried.

“Are you not going?!” Lui Hai eyes glared, “Or I’ll commit suicide here!!”

Lui Hai yelled again, “Go get it!!”

The girl lowered her head, covering her mouth and rushing out of the room.

When Lui Yiyun came back, she had a 15cm-long test tube with some transparent liquid in her hand.

Lui Yiyun held it by both hands, walking in step by step.

Lui Hai stretched out his hand, saying softly, “Give it to me.”

Everyone looked at the object the girl held, without daring to breathe heavily as if being afraid that she’d drop it down.

Lui Yiyun lowered her head.

But she stopped, holding it tightly in front of her chest, “Sorry, dad… I won’t give you that.”

“Yiyun, listen to me!” Lui Hai urged her with patience, “You’re just a kid, don’t be willful.”

“Yeah, girl, hand out the antidote.” Ma Houde helped, “It’s just a minor offense for your dad before anyone die. Or else, it’ll be a serious problem!”

Lui Yiyun shook her head, stepping back. The tear stains turned clearer on her face. She looked at Lui Hai and kept shaking her head, “No.. no, that’s not the truth!”

“Don’t talk nonsense! Hand it out!”

Lui Hai shouted, rushing up and reaching for the test tube, but Lui Yiyun threatened, “Don’t come over! Or I will smash it down!”

“Yiyun you…”

The girl talked sadly, “Dad… I can’t forgive them! I can’t! I can’t!! Don’t commit a crime for my sake, please!”

“Yiyun, stop speaking nonsense! Don’t act without consideration!”

“It’s not what he said, totally not…” Lui Yiyun shook her head. She sobbed, the white neck turned a little stiff and red due to agitation. She looked around the room with resentment.

The girl pointed at Luo Aiyu suddenly, “Firstly! This woman deserves to die!! Dad, do you know what this woman did in private?”

“You, what did you say? What did I do?!” Luo Aiyu screamed.

Lui Yiyun said angrily, “I know the flirty affairs you and the village head did! Each time you go to purchase something, you’ll have sex with him secretly?!”

“That’s a total bullshit!!”

“That year!” Lui Yiyun sneered, “The villagers felt sorry for our family, so they discussed and decided to distribute more land to us for compensation! You flirty woman, would you marry my dad without those lands? And the village head is not a good guy, he covets our land too! You two f*cked that day and discussed how to kill my dad and my father, then embezzled my land!”

“You, you speak nonsense! I did not!!” Luo Aiyu’s face turned pale.

Lui Yiyun sneered, “My dad and you slept separately since years ago! Tell me, who is the father of the baby in your womb? If you don’t have an abortion, you can’t hide it two months later!”

Luo Aiyu covered her belly subconsciously.

Lui Yiyun said angrily, “You’re feeding slow poison to my grandpa, I know that! If I didn’t change it every day, you would have succeeded, right? Look at the medicine hiding under your bed!”

Luo Aiyu quivered, trying to rush out of the room.

But she was caught by two young policemen easily. She wanted to struggle, punching and scratching them fiercely, so the two policemen had to press her to the wall.

Lui Yiyun smiled suddenly, it was a terrible smile. She tilted head, her eyes opened wide, “You cursed my grandma secretly, then let me have you suffer the pain of my grandma that year, letting you die early!! But it failed in the end!”

Lui Yiyun gave a wry smile, “I was waiting for a chance to let all the villagers experience the pain… The scandal 45 years ago shouldn’t be concealed and these people should not live peacefully. I had a chance, I know this b*tch is trying to expand the business of the resort, so I suggested to her to find some journalist to write a report—Whoever she would get would have something to write! Not the scenery of this resort, but the crime 45 years ago! Write what you threw away, the evil of Lui Chaosheng and Takeru Sakai! I’ll let the whole Lui Village be condemned by the society, and all of your descendants will be criticized for their actions for the rest of their lives!! All of you are murderers, forever!”

According to Lui Yiyun’s accusation and the scandal that she said, everyone felt how terrifying this girl was.

So did Ren Ziling… she couldn’t imagine that how serious the hate was to have this girl take such extreme methods. Since the time when she just arrived here, the girl had started to implement her plan of revenge.

That was too terrible.

While Lui Chaosheng screeched, foaming at the mouth, saying with pain, “Antidote… give me antidote… Lui Hai, you promised you’ll give me the antidote… you promised that if I do what you asked, and pleaded guilty, you’ll make her hand out the antidote… Lui Hai… Save me… I don’t want to die…”

Lui Hai suddenly became disappointed. He looked at Lui Yiyun with pain, his voice turned hoarse, “Yiyun… why do you have so much more hate than me…”

Lui Yiyun’s tears dropped.

She turned around slowly, taking off her clothes and revealing her back.

From the smooth and tender shoulders to many ferocious and horrible scars at back.

Shocking to the sight.

Nobody would feel happy; all of them hearts twitched.

“Why?”

Lui Yiyun cried bitterly, “Dad, do you know how the ones my age and a little older treat me outside?”

“They said that I’m a freak, they heard from their families that my granny was the wife of the sea lord, actually a sea monster… they said that I’m the kid of the monster. Do you know that they will catch me, ripping my skin and see if I’m different from them?”

Lui Yiyun’s face turned quiet, saying in a cool voice, “It started with a knife, to cut open my arm, see my blood is red, then they asked to see my bones. Afterwards, they burned me by fire, and pressed my head into the water.”

“It might not be exciting enough, so they did something more exciting. Two men grabbed my feet, one peeled my toenails with pliers. They were happy to hear a scream of the descendant of a monster. What’s more, would you like to hear more… to hear what the so-called innocent young persons did and how they look like?”

Lui Yiyun’s tears dried, putting on the clothes.

The girl look showed extremely cold, all young guys felt afflictive under her gaze.

No one knew how many tragedies she had experienced that turned such a young and passionate heart frozen and lifeless.

“I can’t say it out, or I’ll suffer more.” Lui Yiyun laughed at herself, “I’m such a coward… but why did these people treat me so cruelly? Why did such a rumor exist— Oh, I see, that is because the villagers distort the fact, just for relieving their emotions and living better and making sure their next generations do not realize the ugly things they did.”

“You guys!” Lui Yiyun pointed at those villagers that kept quiet, “How cold your can hearts be!”

“I won’t forgive you! Forever!” Lui Yiyun took a deep breath, a savage look appeared on her face.

Ma Houde made a gesture. Two young policemen nodded slightly, moving their steps. At the moment when they intended to pounce on Lui Yiyun, she opened mouth.

“Don’t come over!!”

Her mouth was opened wide. An extremely hoarse voice was heard.

Everyone covered their ears, falling down painfully.

That voice lasted several seconds, people collapsed and got fainted one by one on the ground.

After all of them fell, Lui Yiyun walked to Lui Hai slowly, heading down and holding her father’s head, tidying his messy hair.

The girl said, “Dad, take care of my grandpa.”

She took a deep breath, putting it down and standing up.

Suddenly, at the moment when she turned around… she found a person still standing there, who appeared from nowhere.

That guest with blonde hair!

Momo.

Momo frowned, glancing at the senior who fell down… ‘This guy is feigning death. That voice is too weak to make him die.’

He didn’t know what this senior would like to do but he had his belief and rules of action—Escorting Luo Aiyu back, he hid in this resort. That was why he knew about everything happened here.

He had the impulse to take a fight after hearing her miserable experience—But she shouldn’t leave with the antidote.

“Hand out the antidote, don’t repeat your mistakes.” Momo sighed, “A monster is a strange species. Hostility will give monsters a stronger power but it comes with being lost. If you don’t stop, the nature of the monster will swallow your humanity.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Lui Yiyun maintained vigilance, “But it’s impossible to forgive these people!”

Golden light emitted from Momo’s eyes, he yelled in a low voice, “If you refuse to realize your errors, then I have to do something! Momo, the successor of Taoism of Dragon Tiger Mountain will kill you at this place!”

He threw up his suitcase, it was opened soon and countless pieces of yellow spell paper dropped with wind and thunder sound, turning into one and one golden-light fierce tigers.

Lui Yiyun raised her head, ears and fingernails turned sharper—and her teeth too, like a sharpening saw.

“Kill the demon!” Momo shouted, several golden tigers rushed towards Lui Yiyun.

Lui Yiyun made that extremely hoarse voice, which rushed out to stop one of those fierce tigers.

Nevertheless, it couldn’t stop the others. At this time, Momo face reddened slightly and those tigers struck Lui Yiyun.

She couldn’t defend against them, like a lost kite, her body broke through the wall, falling down on the blue-star flower sea in the yard of the resort.

When Momo planned to pursue and attack, Lui Yiyun stood up and fled outside.

“Trying to escape?!”

Momo didn’t have time to guess the intentions of the senior who was playing dead… the monster was easy to handle but the thoughts of the senior were hard to guess.

But the most important thing, for now, was to grab the antidote.

The room turned quiet all of a sudden.

The club boss and his servant girl stood up slowly now.

Luo Qiu gazed at Lizi. The servant girl then understood his thoughts, going towards Lizi quietly and pointing at her forehead.

Lizi’s eyelids moved slightly… then she fainted.

Luo Qiu carried Ren Ziling and made her lean against the wall. Then he looked out of the room, ordering softly, “Let’s go to Hear-The-Sea Cliff with Lui Hai and his father. It’s the time to finish Lui Buhai’s request.”
