Capítulo 774: Chapter 142 Request for Assistance from the Hao Tian Clan_1
The immense sadness overwhelmed Wang Dong'er's heart.
She couldn't control herself anymore, large tears plumping down onto the ground.
Even though she covered her mouth with her hands, muffled sobs still escaped.
The sounds were soft, but the two in the hall were no ordinary individuals, being the top fighters of the Soul Land. Such a clear disturbance could not escape their ears.
"Who's out there?"
Titan bellowed, transforming into a shadow and in an instant, was outside the Sect Main Hall.
He raised his hand, ready to squash the sneaking thief outside the door.
"Dong'er, is that you?"
When he saw clearly that it was Wang Dong'er peering outside the hall, not a thief, Titan's raised hand couldn't come down.
On his rugged face, the anger disappeared instantly, replaced with a flustered look upon seeing Wang Dong'er's miserable demeanour.
"Uh, Dong'er, when did you get here? How long have you been here?"
Titan used the hand that was raised to rub his head.
"I... have been here for quite a while."
Wang Dong'er paused, then continued, "I heard what I should have and even what I shouldn't have. It turns out you've been lying to me for so many years, you knew my father."
Ah, this.
Titan's face stiffened, and Wang Dong'er's words petrified him in place as if he had been hit by a spell.
"Hey, Dong'er, now that it has come to this, we won't hide it from you anymore, I indeed know your father," Niu Tian emerged from the hall and joined them, his eyes showing a complex mix of emotions.
What else could they say now?
They should definitely come clean about everything, hoping to win Wang Dong'er's forgiveness.
"My father, what kind of man was he?"
Wang Dong'er's expression had a momentary haze before she couldn't help but ask.
As a child, even one who has never met their parents, there's an innate curiosity about one's parents...
Niu Tian hesitated briefly before speaking solemnly, "He is a... very powerful man. His surname is Tang, sorry but that's all we can tell you for now."
Wang Dong'er flinched, then queried, "Then is my mother's surname Wang?"
"No, your mother's surname is 'Qin'..." Titan felt like he could answer this without Niu Tian's help.
Wang Dong: "..."
"My father's surname is Tang, my mother's surname is Qin... and I'm surnamed Wang?"
"Does that make sense?"
She felt that she should have her father's surname, or at the very least, her mother's if anything.
She never imagined that her surname would have nothing to do with either of them.
However,
Niu Tian and Titan exchanged a glance, nodding in unison, "We think it makes perfect sense."
Wang Dong'er: "..."
Now that it had come to this, there was nothing left to say.
Thinking again of the Tang-surnamed father's actions towards her, she was even less inclined to entangle herself with this father she had never met.
"Dong'er, I think there might have been some misunderstandings in what we just said, how about we explain it again?" Titan thought for a moment, then earnestly asked.
Wang Dong shook her head faintly, "It's nothing, thank you for taking care of me all these years. I just want to be alone right now."
She declined Titan's suggestion.
What more was there to say?
Her two adoptive fathers, the people she was once closest to, were also deceiving her.
She felt as if the world was suddenly devoid of love.
Before she knew it, Qin Xiao's image emerged in her mind.
That guy might be cunning, but as long as you paid him, he would sincerely help you.
"Dong'er, if you speak like this, your Grandfather and Second Father will be very heartbroken," Niu Tian said with a pained expression.
Wang Dong'er's gaze flashed, and she said firmly, "All I know is, you weren't happy when the curse was lifted and I could use soul tools, but instead became anxious and restless...
Ask yourselves, do you truly care about me, have any regard for me? Or do you see my existence as a task, a burden?"
This...
After hearing Wang Dong'er's words, the expressions of Titan and Niu Tian changed again.
Indeed, Wang Dong'er's words struck right at their hearts.
At the beginning, their acceptance of Wang Dong'er was indeed due to Tang San's mission and request, but after so many years, their thoughts had already changed.
"Dong'er..." Niu Tian opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but Wang Dong'er did not give him the chance and walked past him.
"You..." Titan shouted, trying to make Wang Dong'er stay.
But Niu Tian interrupted him, "Titan, let it be, let Dong'er calm down for now. We shouldn't disturb her."
"She's not a little child anymore, I believe that given enough time, she'll understand," Niu Tian consoled.
Titan opened his mouth and then conceded, "Alright then."
He could only watch as Wang Dong'er's figure disappeared from his sight, choosing not to act.
"Grand Sect Master, Second Sect Master, someone has arrived at the mountain gate."
After some time, a disciple of the Hao Tian Clan approached them, speaking with respect.
"Who is it?"
Niu Tian frowned slightly.
After all, the Hao Tian Clan had been secluded for many years, and few people knew about its location. Many of the younger Soul Masters didn't even know that there was such a sect as the Hao Tian Clan on Soul Land.
So for someone to come here, and specify their intentions, it meant the person was not simple.
