CHAPTER 929 THE TRUTH OF THE PAST
Jiang Ning had stirred up the north to blast Pang Feiyan out of the murky waters but he turned out not to be the one Jiang Ning was looking for.
Jiang Ning didn't expect the person behind Hidden Sect to be this well hidden.
Even though they had exchanged blows just once, Jiang Ning could feel that this man was His Lordship and not Pang Feiyan. He was incredibly powerful!
He might not be any weaker than Jiang Ning even.
Also, Jiang Ning felt that the punch earlier was very familiar too.
It seemed to be from the same school as his own boxing technique.
Even Pang Feiyan's boxing technique was like that.
The three of them actually had the same sort of feel about their boxing technique. That was very strange indeed.
"He's appeared again after all," Yan Chinan sighed and he still looked wary. "Don't run after him, it might be a trap!"
Jiang Ning turned and looked at Yan Chinan.
"He's His Lordship?"
Yan Chinan nodded.
"Neither of you know who he really is?"
"No idea."
Jiang Ning frowned. Even these two old men who had crossed paths with His Lordship more than once didn't know who he was?
This man was really too mysterious.
"Your boxing technique..." He Linbei couldn't help but ask Jiang Ning about it. "He Daoren was the one who taught you, right?"
Jiang Ning nodded. It wasn't surprising that these two men knew who his master was.
But Pang Feiyan said that the manual he had was given to him by Jiang Daoran.
What happened back then?
COUGH! COUGH!
Jiang Daoran was still coughing violently and his face was still pale. Xue Ning was still lying in his arms and she was slowly calming down.
The two of them nearly died earlier!
If Jiang Ning hadn't arrived in time...
Jiang Daoran turned to look at Jiang Ning. His lips were trembling but he couldn't get a single word out.
Fifteen years.
Fifteen years had passed!
He had only seen Jiang Ning twice so far.
The last time he saw Jiang Ning, Jiang Ning had come to kill him, but Yan Chinan and He Linbei had stopped him in the name of his master. If they hadn't done that, Jiang Daoran would be dead by now.
He would have died at the hands of his own son.
But this time, Jiang Ning had come to rescue him.
"You...why did you save me?" Jiang Daoran asked in a quiet voice after a long time.
"Actually, I still really want to kill you right now!" replied Jiang Ning.
Jiang Daoran laughed bitterly and closed his eyes.
If Jiang Ning wanted to kill him, he wouldn't put up a fight at all.
"No! Don't kill him!" Xue Ning immediately panicked. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
"Jiang Ning! Your father didn't let you and your mother down at all! He didn't..."
"Don't talk about it!" Jiang Daoran yelled at her.
"I insist on talking about it!"
Xue Ning didn't care. She didn't want to watch Jiang Daoran die. Her bloodshot eyes were filled with tears.
"Back then, your mother made this decision herself so that your father and the Jiang family would be protected..." Xue Ning cried as she explained what happened. "She loved your father very much, so very much! But if she didn't leave him and allow the Jiang family to arrange a marriage with someone from the Xue family, then the entire Jiang family would have to die, including you!"
Jiang Ning's gaze quivered and he looked at Jiang Daoran.
"They didn't have a choice!" Xue Ning continued to cry as she spoke. "All parents love their own child! Your parents love you so much, and even though he married me, he refuses to touch me or have a child with me..."
"Nobody can replace you or your mother in his heart!"
Jiang Ning didn't say anything and kept looking at Jiang Daoran.
He suddenly realized that Jiang Daoran had aged a little. His sideburns were actually graying.
"Daoran was really the one who gave you that boxing technique manual that you have. That is one of the things hidden in the Jiang family's medical books that have been passed down through the generations. Your master was asked to protect you,” sad Yan Chinan. "His Lordship has always wanted this manual and he's been looking for it all this time."
"But that Pang Feiyan wanted it for himself when he found out that the Jiang family has a page and didn't tell His Lordship."
