From the end of the world

Chapter 129 Ying Lingyun 2
It is not uncommon in the history recorded by demon hunters for demons lurking in the strange world to transform into beautiful women and attack talented people in the secular world. Especially when the demon is a fox demon, it seems even less surprising.

However, due to the rules that strange things cannot truly influence the operation of secular society, even if these monsters are powerful, they often cannot make any splash in the open.

But as a father, Zhu Ba still couldn't stand his daughter's beloved having an affair with the monster woman.

Not to mention that as he investigated, he discovered that the monster itself was not an ordinary fox demon.

The fox demon was once a powerful monster called "Silver Moon", with power far exceeding that of a master demon hunter. Legend has it that she has lived for hundreds of years and has an extremely evil temperament. She has caused countless disasters, eaten countless humans alive, and killed countless Luoshan's Wuchang and Youxun.

Until half a century ago, she was ambushed and besieged by three "Great Accomplishment" level demon hunters in a trap set up specifically for her, and she was seriously injured and on the verge of death. After that, she lay dormant and disappeared.

"A demon hunter at the 'great master' level?" I noticed this unfamiliar term.

"The so-called great demon hunter refers to a demon hunter above the mature level. This level of demon hunter is also called 'a demon hunter who surpasses the demon hunter.'" Zhu Shi explained to me.

This is also a concept that the weirdo maker once mentioned… I asked, “What about the great impermanence?”

"The Great Impermanence is one level higher than the Great Demon Hunter. If the Great Demon Hunter is the 'super demon hunter' among demon hunters, then the Great Impermanence is the 'super demon hunter who surpasses the super demon hunter'." Zhu Shi used a tongue twister for some reason. What is that? It sounds like an alien fighting race that appeared in an old battle comic.

"There are no more than twenty demon hunters at the great master level in Luoshan, and Silver Moon was so powerful that it took three great master demon hunters to use clever tactics to completely overwhelm it. It can be said to be a great demon." Mr. Zhu sighed and continued to tell us about the past.

At first he didn't know that the fox demon was Yin Yue. He just thought that it was probably an ordinary fox demon who admired Ying Lingyun's talent. So he wanted to confront Ying Lingyun and force him to cut off contact with the fox demon.

However, during the investigation, he soon discovered another thing, that is, the fox demon not only had an emotional affair with Ying Lingyun, but was also the woman who raised Ying Lingyun.

Ying Lingyun was indeed an orphan whose parents had both passed away. Later, Yin Yue adopted him and educated him in a disguised human form, raising him to adulthood. Dramatically, this disguise not only deceived other people, but also kept Ying Lingyun himself in the dark. For a long time, he did not know that the beautiful fox demon woman who came to seduce him was actually the human woman who raised him.

Monsters do not have human moral concepts. Many things that humans think violate ethical common sense are just taken for granted by monsters.

It was not until Zhu Ba came to his house and exposed the truth that Ying Lingyun finally came to his senses.

Although Ying Lingyun was arrogant at that time, he had sound values ​​and conscience. Just like Chang'an, who was a playboy in the past, risked his life to destroy the nightclub after discovering the truth of the evil, Ying Lingyun, after realizing that the fox demon Yinyue was not only the woman who raised him but also an evil monster who ate countless people, rejected the temptation of the other party with all his strength and became irreconcilable with her.

However, it is difficult to distinguish feelings. At that time, Ying Lingyun had already developed deep feelings for the "fox demon girl" and even had many physical relationships with her. Even if he knew her true identity afterwards, he probably went through countless inner struggles. Moreover, although Yin Yue was hundreds of years old, her face and figure were no different from those of a young girl still studying on campus. When she stood with Ying Lingyun, they looked like siblings. Even Ying Lingyun himself probably found it difficult to regard her as an elder in many cases.

On the other hand, Yin Yue dotes on Ying Lingyun. Even though the two later become enemies, Yin Yue will still stand by Ying Lingyun as a friend and provide him with help without any effort. The development of various contradictions makes Ying Lingyun confused, and Yin Yue can even point out Ying Lingyun's confusion and help him out of his spiritual dilemma.

Seeing the man and the demon "getting hot" over there, Zhu Jiu, as a childhood sweetheart, was at a loss. Zhu Ba, who was behind the scenes, was used to being disappointed with his daughter, as if he wanted to remotely control his daughter and quickly take down his beloved in front of the vixen.

"Ah, no, no!" Zhu Shi was horrified, "No... Grandpa, wait a minute!"

Seeing that he was interrupted again, Mr. Zhu was not angry, but just confused: "Huh? What's wrong?"

"Let me summarize first..." Zhu Shi first organized his speech, and then said with a rather strange expression, "In my father's eyes, the demon woman with whom he had an ambiguous relationship was not only his mother, but also his lover, his friend, his nemesis, his life mentor, and even the object of his frequent physical relations. Sometimes she would help him in times of crisis, and sometimes she would deceive him with acting and lies, but overall she still loved him all the time?"

"Hmm..." Upon hearing this, Mr. Zhu thought for a moment, then nodded, "That's about it." Zhu Shi held his head and shouted, "Isn't that invincible? How can my mother, who is just a childhood sweetheart, compete with that kind of two-dimensional character!?"

"How dare you say your own mother! And what nonsense are you talking about?" Mr. Zhu was furious. "That witch violated human ethics and attacked the child she raised. She also committed many evil things, ate countless people, repeatedly cheated, and never told the truth. Who would choose a woman like that? It must have been the same for Ying Lingyun at that time. It would have been fine if he didn't know the truth, but after knowing the truth, how could he still have feelings for someone who was not even a human being?
"In comparison, my daughter is his childhood sweetheart. She has devoted her heart to the one she loves. The relationship is deep and legitimate. How can she lose? How can she lose?"

Zhu Shi complained: "No, no, no, no matter how you look at it, we can't win..."

"Humph... You and your mother are the same. You keep saying you can't win in private. It's really disgusting. Later, I used both soft and hard tactics to persuade her to finally muster up the courage to confess..." Mr. Zhu shook his head first, then sighed deeply, "Alas, but I was also wrong, too wrong... If I had known that Ying Lingyun would become like that, I should not have entrusted my daughter to him."

In fact, Zhu Ba did not fully support his daughter at that time.

On the one hand, he thought it was normal for a talented man to attract other women. Although Ying Lingyun's situation was much more complicated, as long as the son-in-law took the initiative to cut off those ties and truly settled down after getting married and starting a family, he would forgive him. Moreover, he had learned from his mistakes and wanted to support his daughter's free will as much as possible.

On the other hand, seeing that Ying Lingyun, his future son-in-law, was getting deeper and deeper into the fox demon, he really considered giving up on him.

However, Ying Lingyun finally made the difficult choice to break up with Yin Yue.

The reason is simple. No matter how friendly he behaves in front of Ying Lingyun, Yin Yue is ultimately an evil monster.

In order to heal the trauma caused by the ambush of three great demon hunters in the past, Yin Yue secretly planned a huge massacre plan, intending to collect a large number of human souls to restore her strength in her heyday. Ying Lingyun, who was full of justice, naturally could not agree with this approach. He stood on the opposite side of Yin Yue with Zhu Jiu and vowed to work together to stop his adoptive mother's terrorist intentions.

As this concerns the foundation of her own foothold in the world, even if the other party is Ying Lingyun, Yin Yue has no intention of showing mercy. The two of them must fight to the death.

This is a story of ups and downs. Ying Lingyun, as a mortal, sets foot in the strange world. With his intelligence and the magic weapon "Moon in the Water" given to him by Yin Yue in the past, which can copy the power of supernatural powers, he mediates between countless demon hunters and strange beings. The only partner around him is Zhu Jiu. If he takes a wrong step, he will die. The enemy is a great monster, which has the extraordinary power to destroy the organizational system of a great country by itself.

This was no longer a hero challenging the devil, but an ant challenging a human. No one thought he could succeed.

And at the end of this incredible adventure, he actually accomplished this feat incredibly, successfully killing the great demon Silver Moon with incredible courage and wisdom.

After the success, just like a hero returning to a peaceful life after defeating the devil, he withdrew from the strange world and continued to be a politician in the secular society. After all, he did not have the talent to become a demon hunter. Even if he had the merit of defeating Silver Moon, he was not someone who should live in the strange world. Zhu Ba no longer opposed his daughter's marriage to him and took him into his family as a son-in-law.

After a period of time, Zhu Shi, whose name was "Zhu Jiuxing" at the time, was born, and everything seemed to be on the right track.

If this were a fairy tale, it might end with "the prince and princess lived happily ever after", but the reality continues here.

When Zhu Jiuxing was four years old, the Zhu family discovered through clues that Ying Lingyun had an illegitimate child outside named "Chang'an", who was the child born accidentally between him and Yin Yue in the past.

After discovering Chang'an's existence, Zhu Ba was furious. But there was nothing he could do. Should he ask Ying Lingyun to apologize and repent for his infidelity? But he had even risked his life to kill the person he had cheated on. How could he ask him to apologize and repent?

Even Zhu Jiu forgave Ying Lingyun, and even generously allowed Chang'an to live in the Zhu family.

But the story is not over yet. I don't know whether it is because he cherishes it more because he lost it, or because he killed an important person with his own hands and made his mind crazy, Ying Lingyun actually began to study the method of reviving Yin Yue.
