Chapter 378: illegitimate child?

At this moment, an even more shocking scene unfolded before him.

From who-knew-where, fragments emitting a blue light began to piece together, bit by bit, into an arrow in Liang Yu’s hand, on the full moon bow that originally had no arrows.

It was also at this moment that the alarm bells in his heart rang loudly, and he felt a fatal threat, which came precisely from the glowing arrow in Liang Yu’s hand.

Although he was very confident that he could avoid this arrow, Zen Master Qizhen also gathered all his spirit. This was the first time he had felt a fatal threat from Liang Yu, which forced him to be cautious.

Perhaps a small mistake could cause him to suffer a setback.

At this point, both of them were ready, just waiting for the other to show a flaw, and then deliver a fatal blow.

At this moment, Liang Yu opened his mouth and asked.

“Old bald donkey, isn’t it just about letting your disciple Hui Nian out?”

“Do you have to be so desperate?”

However, Zen Master Qizhen’s reply made Liang Yu wonder if the other party had taken the wrong fake medicine or traveled through time, as he couldn’t understand a single word.

“Are you planning to beg for mercy now?”

“It’s too late!”

“I won’t let you take Hui Nian away.”

Liang Yu saw that the other party was already crazy, even starting to talk nonsense, and could directly issue a critical illness notice, essentially sentencing him to death.

When did he say he wanted to take Hui Nian away?

From beginning to end, he only said to let Qi Zhen release Hui Nian; how did it turn into wanting to take the other party away in his ears?

Liang Yu suddenly had a bold guess, and this guess was related to Hui Nian’s background. In this way, Zen Master Qizhen’s reason for being so desperate made sense.

He shouted loudly at Zen Master Qizhen.

“Stop!”

“I never said I wanted to take Hui Nian away!”

“I just asked you to release him from confinement.”

Saying that, he shot the arrow into the sky and put away his longbow, indicating that he had no intention of attacking.

However, this was just an appearance.

Liang Yu, that cunning fellow, was already prepared to escape. As long as Zen Master Qizhen attacked him, he would slip away then, which was also why he had the confidence to shoot the arrow into the air.

Zen Master Qizhen was also somewhat surprised to see Liang Yu’s actions. His current state was not very good either, and his right hand was still faintly aching.

Seeing Liang Yu give up the attack, he also prepared to send his left-hand charged attack into the sky, but before that, he stared at Liang Yu and asked, word by word.

“You’re not someone sent by the royal family?”

“Don’t try to lie; I still have that much discernment.”

Liang Yu gave the other party a big eye-roll. Him, a member of the royal family?

Was the other party blind or mentally deranged, or perhaps he had taken the fake medicine he mentioned earlier.

How did he, Liang, get involved with the royal family? Looking at the other party’s stance, he was even acting as a lackey for the royal family?

Facing Liang Yu’s questioning, Zen Master Qizhen, however, spoke with reason and evidence.

From the moment he entered the market, everything he did was reported to Zen Master Qizhen, except for his entry into the Mountain Cave behind the mountain, for which there was no evidence that he did it.

But Zen Master Qizhen was exceptionally clear about his subsequent actions in West Sand City, including City Lord Mo Yuan calling him ‘Sir,’ and the miraculously improved condition of the severely injured and dying Mo Yuan.

All this evidence pointed to the royal family.

Moreover, Zen Master Qizhen had the most crucial irrefutable proof!!!

That was the one-man army!

To them, the one-man army was not a robot but rather a puppet, and these self-moving puppets were generally only in the hands of the royal family.

As for the few special cases, they would not come to this borderland.

Therefore, all the evidence pointed to Liang Yu, and the one-man army was the definitive proof that Liang Yu was a member of the royal family.

After listening, Liang Yu felt numb all over again.

These Indigenous people were too imaginative; just based on a robot, they could prove that he was a member of the royal family. This made him consider that if he caused any trouble later, he would just reveal the one-man army and use his identity to suppress people.

But there was a problem at hand: how to explain it so that Zen Master Qizhen would believe that he was not a member of the royal family, and had nothing to do with the royal family!!!

Liang Yu stretched out his hand and scratched his hair, then directly turned the tables and asked.

“Zen Master Qizhen, do you have any way to discern or prove that I am not a member of the royal family, and have no connection with the royal family!”

Zen Master Qizhen was also confused. What was going on with the person opposite? Could he be more shameless?

Normally, wouldn’t you find a way to provide evidence to prove your innocence? It’s fine if you find it, but if you can’t prove it, you ask me to find a way to prove it for you.

This made him fall silent for a moment; he had never encountered such a thing before.

At this moment, Liang Yu looked at him and suddenly blurted out.

“Alright, alright, don’t ask me for any proof of identity anymore.”

“Actually, I understand!”

“Little Zen Master Hui Nian is your illegitimate child with someone from the royal family, right?”

“To put it bluntly, you’re just afraid that someone from the royal family will take him back.”

However, at this moment, Zen Master Qizhen’s heart was already furiously raging; he had inexplicably gained a son!!!

At this point, he just sent his left-hand charged attack into the sky, looking at the person who was ruining his reputation. He wished he had hit him directly with that last attack.

However, Liang Yu was not wrong about one thing: one of the main reasons he confined Hui Nian was his concern that someone from the royal family would take Hui Nian away.

Liang Yu saw that Zen Master Qizhen did not speak and chose to remain silent, thinking he had guessed correctly, and that Hui Nian was indeed Zen Master Qizhen’s child.

So he became gossipy, asking questions non-stop.

“Old Zen Master, I’m just curious and want to know, with whom from the royal family did you have Little Zen Master Hui Nian?”

“Let me guess.”

“Is it the eldest princess in the dynasty?”

However, Zen Master Qizhen ignored Liang Yu at this moment and instead dealt with the injuries on his hand, starting to set the bones, piecing the shattered bones of his arm back together, and then fixing them.

As long as he rested for a period, it would naturally heal. He still didn’t quite understand how the bones in his arm had shattered at that time.

Liang Yu also came closer, constantly muttering about the eldest princess and similar things beside him.

“Get lost!”

“There is no eldest princess in the dynasty at all!”

At the same time, this also made Zen Master Qizhen begin to believe that Liang Yu was not from the dynasty. If he were, he couldn’t possibly not know that there was no eldest princess. If it was intentional, it didn’t seem like it.

Liang Yu was uncharacteristically silent for a moment after hearing Zen Master Qizhen’s reply, then estimated Zen Master Qizhen’s age, and suddenly a light bulb went off; he had thought of the answer.

Since it couldn’t be the eldest princess, and it was impossible to have a child with the empress due to the huge age difference.

Then the only one who fit the description would be the emperor’s mother, the Grand Empress Dowager.

In other words, Little Zen Master Hui Nian was the current emperor’s biological brother!

And the Old Zen Master was the current Emperor Emeritus??
