Chapter 2014 Shenyou Continent 3

Zhou Huaijin wore a bewildered expression, clearly taken aback by the puzzling connection between their Yan family in the Shenyou Continent and the current situation.

"Let's discuss this once we're inside," Zhao Yiqiu advised cautiously.

"Alright," Zhou Huaijin replied, following her as they entered the Yan Manor.

The Yan family was undeniably a prominent and expansive clan, evident from the grandeur of the Yan Manor itself. The passing servants, however, seemed indifferent towards their presence. They glanced at them occasionally but did not pay much attention, rushing past with their tasks at hand.

The only person in the Yan Manor who showed them respect was the housekeeper assigned to escort them.

They were directed to a courtyard named Shuanghua Courtyard, radiating an air of opulence.

However…

The number of servants within the courtyard was surprisingly scarce, with only a few individuals bustling about.

Gu Chaoyan instructed Wu Ziming and the others to wait outside while she and Zhou Huaijin proceeded into the room. It was clear that the situation required a detailed explanation.

The complexity of the situation left them unsure of where to begin.

"I am Yan Shuang, the Eldest Miss of the Yan Family on the Shenyou Continent. One day, I found myself unexpectedly pregnant and gave birth to Huaijin," Yan Shuang began to explain.

Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin were left utterly dumbfounded, their jaws dropping in disbelief.

How could this be?

Huaijin was not the King's child?

'Suddenly pregnant?'

Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin looked at Zhao Yiqiu subconsciously.

Yan Shuang shook her head. "It's not him."

"…."

"Speaking of which, I haven't gotten an answer to this matter yet. I'm a woman who hasn't left the pavilion to begin with. How did I suddenly get pregnant and give birth to a child?"

"…."

"Although the Shenyou Continent respects cultivation, the Shenyou Continent also values rules."

"…."

"Although nothing will happen to me if I'm pregnant without leaving the pavilion, I'll still bring shame to the residence. The Yan family and my parents can't bear this."

"…."

"After Yiqiu finds out and marries me, there will be an explanation for this child's background."

"…."

"However, on the day Huaijin was born, his body was enveloped by a black demonic aura."

"…."

"Most importantly, I found out that Huaijin doesn't have spiritual roots."

"…."

"When the two are combined, Yiqiu and I are also very afraid that something will happen to Huaijin."

"…."

"So she took Huaijin to the State of Saint Divine Land, where there was no spiritual energy, and made a deal with the King. You know what happened after that."

"…."

"So, we are all from the Shenyou Continent, and I am the Elder Miss of the Yan Family."

"…."

"When we first arrived in Jiangnan, Father called us back, so we returned to the Shenyou Continent. It was only now that we received the news of the Golden Rolls that Father asked us to send you the news."

"…."

"Right now, the Yan Clan's situation isn't too good."

"…."

"The eldest grandson of the Yan family, Yan Wuji, was severely injured a few days ago."

"…."

"As for the Golden Rolls fragments of the Star Moon Pavilion, they were also taken out during this period of time. They said that only the winner of the competition could obtain them."

"…."

"The existence of the Golden Rolls is very important. Be it the Shenyou Dynasty or the other prefectures, they are all fighting for it. Whether our Yan family can obtain the Golden Rolls fragment is also very important!"

"Why? How do Golden Rolls work?" Gu Chaoyan asked.
