"Master, do you like me?" The words of Yuzhen from that passionate night echoed in Zoe's mind.
"Isn't he more like you than Chen Ling?" The hinted words of Zhen Zeon finally made sense.
"Dada…" Yuan's expectant voice pierced his heart.
Gathering each puzzle piece, Zoe figured out the truth. Happiness and sorrow filled his heart. "How stupid am I? The truth was always in front of me, but why didn't I realize it sooner…" he blamed himself.
"Mmm…" Yuan's faint voice, as he regained consciousness, made everyone alert.
"What are you waiting for? Quickly finish the process," the old man commanded the chanter.
As the spell worked, the magic circle where Yuan had been placed beamed with light. The onlookers' faces lifted with greed at what they were about to achieve. If the ritual succeeded, even the demon lord, Long Yuzhen, would have no choice but to surrender for his beloved son.
"Aaa…" Feeling heat and pain all over his body, Yuan screamed in agony.
