Chapter 1047: Change of heart
Chapter 1047: Change of heart
Inside Alena’s manor.
"You are Elder Song’s eldest daughter..." Alena looked at the young lady with great surprise. The last time she met Genelia, she was simply a small girl, not more than five years old; at that time, Yohan was just an toddler in Alena’s arms.
"Time sure flies, huh? You used to carry Yohan in your little arms during those gatherings..." Alena whispered, a bittersweet smile appearing on her face. She clearly remembered how protected this young lady used to be around Yohan, carrying him everywhere like a protective old sister.
"..."
Genelia was dumbfounded by this revelation. She did not remember anything that happened when she was a child, but her cheeks slightly turned red regardless. Jasmine and Kana exchanged glances upon hearing that, realizing Yohan was technically way younger than them.
After talking with Genelia for a short while, Alena turned to Elaine.
"You are Yohan’s guest..." Alena whispered, after all, earlier that was what Kana had told her. Jasmine had a different look on her face upon seeing this mysterious lady. This was the first time she had seen her, and more importantly, Yohan had never mentioned anything related to Elaine; she had appeared out of nowhere.
All of them were curious regarding her identity, especially Genelia and Kana. Their cultivation bases were pretty high compared to Jasmine’s and Alena’s, and the two of them could sense that this woman was not simple; she was on a completely different level.
"Well..." Elaine started explaining the things that had happened inside the Solane Town. Alena and Jasmine’s facial expressions changed drastically when they learned that Yohan had rescued her and two others from some psychopaths who were pretending to be him.
"Young Master Yohan was very kind to us. Not only did he save us, but he also gave us a place to live... we are indebted to him," Elaine said as her eyes become teary . Genelia and Kana were dumbfounded by her words; after all, earlier she was ready to take on Aana, but now she was pretending to be some weak woman who got bullied by some random dude and got saved by Yohan.
Alena immediately moved to Elaine’s side, hugging her.
"It’s alright, you are safe here... you don’t have to worry about anything..." she whispered while caressing her back.
Jasmine also approached her, carrying warmth on her face. Elaine’s story was pretty much similar to her own; Yohan was the one who had saved her when Marcus Nichole intended to destroy the Hundred Poison Valley.
"You don’t have to worry about anything. When it’s safe to travel, we are definitely going to send you back to your families!" Jasmine said, wiping tears from her own face. Both Alena and Jasmine felt sad for this lady.
"Unlike those two... I don’t have any family... I am just an orphan!" Elaine whispered in a trembling voice. Alena’s and Jasmine’s hearts sank hearing her, but the two of them tried to calm her nevertheless.
At the same time, Kana and Genelia were watching everything from the sidelines. The two of them had dumb looks on their faces, wondering what the hell was going on; she was a completely different person with those two ladies.
Meanwhile, at the same time, the warden began circulating the confession video with the help of his men. The video contained the confessions of the five Great Elders. In just a couple of hours, the video spread like wildfire; the entire River Shore City and the people of the Lin clan were shocked to their core learning of the betrayal by the six Great Elders and the seven branch families.
In just a couple of hours, their attitude towards Yohan changed. Earlier, he was just a dictator—a man controlled by the Lady of the Hundred Poison Valley, a man captivated by Jasmine’s beauty. But right at this very moment, he was just a Young Master of the Lin clan who was punishing the traitors. People started hailing Yohan and began cursing those elders and the branch families.
Yohan could be seen standing in the sky, unfazed and unbothered about everything that was happening on the ground.
"Young Master, what are you planning to do now?" Elder Song finally broke his silence and asked Yohan what he intended to do now. Aana, Athena, and Lucine also looked at him, awaiting his answer.
"As I said earlier... I am going to kill every last one of them... that’s what I am going to do now!" Yohan responded, as he had no intention of stopping. Elder Song gulped nervously hearing Yohan. Now that Yohan had destroyed the six great factions and killed the six Grand Elders, hanging their severed heads at the entrance of River Shore City, those people might have already learned everything and would be waiting for him, knowing his personality.
Elder Song was aware of what Yohan did when the Feng clan got annihilated and Feng Yun, the patriarch of the Feng clan, got killed. Without a second thought, Yohan had waged war against the Nichole clan; in the process, he killed one of the ministers of the Northern Royal Family, and at last, he destroyed the Nichole clan, one of the major clans inside the Northern Region.
"Young Master, they know you are coming for them... if what those elders said is true... if the Northern Royal Family is involved one way or another, then there will be tons of spies inside this place keeping an eye on everything that is happening inside the city!" Elder Song said as he looked at Yohan with a serious gaze.
"I know that... that’s why I am going to do what they expect me to do..." Yohan responded to Old Man Song. Hearing Yohan, Elder Song let out a long sigh.
"Then I am coming with you. Su Wan is my friend; if anything happens to him, then I am not going to forgive myself!" Elder Song exclaimed as he made up his mind. But to his surprise, Yohan refused him.
"I am sorry, Elder Song... but I am going all alone. All of you stay here and protect this place in my absence!" Yohan responded, surprising everyone except Athena, who remained calm as if she was somewhat expecting this.
"You are going alone?" Elder Song’s facial expression darkened, wondering what was wrong with this kid.
