Chapter 463: Chapter 82: Why Can’t I Marry Him?

“I just want to raise you into adulthood so you can have a good future. Even if I die, I’d be willing.”

“But, you were suppressed by the ancestor.”

Chu Zhihe sobbed uncontrollably, “Do you know? For me, it feels like the sky is collapsing; you are my life!”

“I would rather give my life to exchange for your release.”

“But the ancestor disagrees. I’ve tried every possible way, even willing to risk my life, but nothing could save you.”

“Tell me, what should I do?”

Chu Tiange felt as if his heart was being cut with a knife upon hearing this. He knew that in this world, his mother was the only person who was truly good to him wholeheartedly. All these years, his mother raised him, paved the way for him in the sect, and collected all the resources for his cultivation.

All these years, his mother has always been selflessly devoted to him, without any demands.

Back then, when he was suppressed in the Qianyuan Golden Tripod, although he had trump cards to protect himself, he couldn’t inform his mother, as Yi Hongchen was constantly monitoring him.

But he didn’t expect things would turn out like this.

“At first, I tried every possible method to save you, but nothing worked. Just when I was about to despair, Lu Chengfeng appeared,” Chu Zhihe’s voice, originally pained, suddenly softened.

“He was willing to offend a True Immortal to rescue you.”

“At first, I didn’t believe him at all, thinking he surely had some scheme, wanting to use me, or even harm you.”

“But eventually, the ancestor pushed me harder and harder, leaving me no way out, so I had to try negotiating with him.”

“Unexpectedly, unexpectedly…”

Chu Zhihe’s face showed an almost imperceptible shyness, “He, he never made any excessive demands, only wanting, wanting me…”

“Enough!” Chu Tiange’s face became extremely ashen, reddened neck and bulging veins on his arms, listening to his mother speak shyly about another young man made him feel boundless shame and agony.

“Will you hear me out?” Chu Zhihe began, looking into her son’s eyes, speaking with a tone somewhat humble and pleading: “I’m not asking you to understand me, just wanting you to know all the causes and consequences. I don’t want there to be so many misunderstandings between us as mother and son.”

Chu Tiange bit his teeth tightly, nails deeply embedded into his flesh, blood seeping.

Chu Zhihe watched his silence, sighed deeply, “Back then, I truly had no other option, and I thought, I’m just an old woman already, even a despoiled one who had given birth.”

“For someone like me, what could he possibly want?”

“With his ability, what kind of good woman couldn’t he get? What am I to him?”

“Though in the past, he disguised himself as Yi Wushuang to humiliate me and used me, ultimately we were on different sides then, enemies; any despicable means was justifiable.”

“Now he voluntarily proposed to help rescue you, with the only condition being me.”

Chu Zhihe slightly lowered her head, avoiding her son’s gaze, speaking sadly: “I was already forcibly possessed by him…” Saying those shameful words before her own child, it felt as though she were being executed inch by inch, but she still managed to say them.

“I was already forcibly possessed, if it meant rescuing you, giving myself to him was nothing, as I am no longer chaste anyway.”

“Therefore, I agreed to him.”

Chu Tiange felt the world was turning dark, as if hit by a massive hammer on the head, stabbed in the heart by an iron spear, the excruciating pain almost suffocating.

Listening to his mother’s disgraceful words, words almost driving a person insane, he wished he could go utterly mad, wished he could immediately tear Lu Chengfeng to pieces.

“Sigh, although I agreed to him, I really didn’t hold much hope.” Chu Zhihe’s voice was filled with bitterness, “After all, the ancestor is a True Immortal; rescuing you from a True Immortal’s watch is harder than reaching the heavens.”

“But I didn’t expect he actually did rescue you.”

“And without any schemes or hidden conditions…”

Chu Zhihe’s tone became somewhat tender and resolute, “He truly went against the world for me, daring to fight a True Immortal, causing havoc in the Royal Capital, toppling the Golden Tripod, rescuing you.”

“Such kindness, I’ll never repay in my lifetime.”

“Just for this, I should honor my promise.”

“And you too, your life was saved by him. I know you feel aggrieved and humiliated inside, I don’t ask you to be grateful, I just hope you don’t hate him.”

“The kindness he showed to our mother and son, I will, I will repay myself…”

“You repay?” Chu Tiange’s eyes turned bloodshot, blood trailing from the corner of his mouth, “How will you repay? With your body? Don’t you find yourself so lowly?”

He screamed hysterically, words filled with contempt, pain, and anger, wishing he could kill the woman if she weren’t his birth mother.

Yet because this woman is his mother, it made him feel such pain and torment.
