Chapter 540: The Truth of the Matter

"Yes, this kind of life fate possesses the appearance of ruling the world, similar to the imperial fate of the Nine-Five, which is why the two of them had a dispute." Zhou Cheng'en gritted his teeth, grabbing Chen Yu's clothes, using all his strength: "After you were born back then, they had a dispute; He Tiansheng used medicine to make you feign death, then handed you over to me to handle secretly."

"Originally... I was going to secretly send you to his laboratory overseas, but I didn't expect that you would be intercepted halfway by Chen Tianming's people."

"And then?" Chen Yu demanded.

"And then... I don't know. The Nether Infinite Art that Chen Tianming practices is the supreme Dharma Code for Dharma Cultivators; it can defy the heavens and change fate, stealing the heavens and shifting the sun... I only know that later, he threw you at the foot of a mountain, with your name, your birth date and time, and a letter from the Chen Clan written on it."

A boom echoed in Chen Yu's mind; all the causes and consequences were finally understood.

Truthfully, if it were the Chen Yu who had just been reborn, he wouldn't have cared about these things at all.

But now, he and this body had completely merged into one; the emotions and feelings the other person had during his life were now his own feelings and habits, and he had thoroughly forgotten his identity from his previous life.

The great enmity of his past life had already been avenged; since the owner of this body had given him a chance at rebirth, he should cherish it well.

His regrets were his own regrets, his life story was his own life story; he felt very sad.

Because his fate had been manipulated by others from the moment he was born, mother and son separated, and a family fell apart.

Immediately, the trace of anger in Chen Yu's heart suddenly magnified; was his life meant to be like this? Was he supposed to be an experimental subject? He was not reconciled.

"Thank you for telling me these things." Chen Yu stared at Zhou Cheng'en and said: "He Tiansheng, that is, my maternal grandfather, he is that God Lord?"

"Yes, after his research was ordered to stop, he was called in by the higher-ups for psychological counseling; after all, that kind of research that violates the Heavenly Dao and human ethics is not permitted."

"So he developed major psychological problems. He feigned death, went abroad, and with the support of an organization, established the God Alliance Laboratory, calling himself the God Lord."

"That black-robed Underworld Envoy is his confidant, right?" Chen Yu asked.

"Under his name, there are Ten Great Underworld Envoys; the black robe is just one of them. These Underworld Envoys include those with innate extraordinary gifts and those transformed by him later. The black-robed Underworld Envoy is just the weakest one among them." Zhou Cheng'en's eyes were already somewhat vacant; he could no longer hold on.

"He controls many forces overseas, financial conglomerates, and even the replacement of heads of state in some small countries."

"Then what about Chen Tianming? What is his identity now?" Chen Yu asked.

"I don't know... After he snatched you away and changed your fate back then, he disappeared. Some say... he is practicing the Nether Infinite Art in some blessed land in Western Kunlun... calling himself the Heavenly Mandate Elder. He controls many forces within the country, and even some ancient Dharma Cultivator families must obey his orders."

"What else do you know?" Chen Yu stared at him and asked.

"Heh, I only know this much... The two of them originally possessed heaven-reaching fortune and abilities beyond the reach of ordinary people. I only know these bits of information because I was once a confidant of the God Lord." Zhou Cheng'en's expression was desolate.

"Your body's potential has been exhausted, and having lived for 8 years in a wretched state, the various functions of your body have completely collapsed; there is no solution." Chen Yu looked at Zhou Cheng'en and sighed slightly: "Thank you for being able to tell me these things before you die."

"All these years... I dedicated everything to He Tiansheng's New Era grand plan, even sending my own eldest son into it, but in his eyes, I was nothing more than an experimental subject, a pawn." Zhou Cheng'en looked miserable.

"Chen Yu, Chen Tianming forcibly defied the Heavenly Mystery and changed your fate; your life fate has awakened. I feel that you can resist them. If one day you destroy them, please tell me in front of my grave." Zhou Cheng'en gritted his teeth and said.

"A person who can treat even his own grandson as an experimental subject, do you think he would be kind to outsiders?" Chen Yu looked at Zhou Cheng'en with some pity: "The reason you were loyal was because you valued his so-called New Human Project, and were looking forward to gaining eternal life by following him, right?"

"Yes, I had selfish motives. My ending today is deserved, deserved indeed." Zhou Cheng'en laughed miserably, somewhat hysterical, somewhat insane.

"Do you have anything else to say?" Chen Yu looked at him.

"Tell my son Zhou Jimin... I have failed him." Zhou Cheng'en's potential had been completely exhausted; he used all his remaining strength to say this one sentence.

"I will." Chen Yu nodded.

"Thank you..." After spitting out these two words, Zhou Cheng'en fell to the ground with a thud and died.

Looking at his corpse, Chen Yu couldn't help but sigh; human desire and selfishness are extremely powerful. Zhou Cheng'en must have been brainwashed by the God King's plan for a new human race and a new era.

This kind of crazy plan was a very tempting plan for him; he could have eternal life and reach what ordinary people could not, which is why he conceived the idea of killing his son to verify the Dao.

It's just that he never imagined that while he was fawning over the other party like a dog, the other party merely treated him as a pawn, an experimental subject.

But regardless, Chen Yu finally figured out what happened back then, and the big hand that had been manipulating his past and present lives gradually surfaced.

Chen Tianming, He Tiansheng—these two were originally his closest kin, but because his life fate was unique and his physique was unique, they treated him as an experimental subject and a pawn.

For the sake of their selfish desires, Chen Yu and his mother were separated for over twenty years; this is something Chen Yu can never forgive in this lifetime. He must become stronger, he must possess the strength to contend with the two of them, and then he will surely have a talk with them about the kindness of abandonment from back then.

Several days later.

At Yalong Group, Zhou Jimin had already finished handling Zhou Cheng'en's funeral. Because his eldest brother had no wife or children during his lifetime, and since the nominal Zhou Jihai had passed away due to reasons, he took charge of Yalong Group.

"Mr. Chen, thank you very much for your help." In the office, Zhou Jimin bowed deeply to Chen Yu: "Our family of three can finally live in the light now."

"I should also thank you. If you hadn't been willing to speak about your brother's issues, I fear I would never have been able to figure out what exactly happened to me back then," Chen Yu said.

"I announced to the outside world that my brother suddenly fell seriously ill and died, and he was buried in my family's ancestral grave back home, but my father's and my brother's tombstones had to be swapped." Zhou Jimin sighed slightly.

"This result is already the best result. Tell your family that what happened that night must be kept buried in your stomachs; otherwise, it will still be disadvantageous to you," Chen Yu said.
