Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 445 - 12: The Affectionate Father (Part 12)

Chapter 445: Chapter 12: The Affectionate Father (Part 12)

Ye Lian couldn’t believe it; the man who once promised to love her forever had brought another woman back, Yang Tianlu. Jealousy filled her heart, but she felt powerless against the reality of her status.

But why does Brother Yun treat her like this?

She had saved him and even given him two sons.

Why does Brother Yun treat her this way? Didn’t he say he would always love her, and make her children Clan Leaders?

Li Longyun was having a great time with the twins within the clan.

The twins weren’t ordinary figures; they were also brazen in front of Yang Tianlu and Ye Lian.

Yang Tianlu cried her eyes out day after day, but no one understood her feelings.

She wanted desperately to complain to her sons and daughters, but her children were in seclusion.

Ye Lian also wanted to complain to Li Shuhui, but Li Shuhui couldn’t understand her either.

Ye Lian thought of all she had done for Li Longyun, only to end up like this, causing her heart to ache. She often walked with her children by the river flowing through the White Wolf Clan.

That river runs through the entire White Wolf Clan.

She was merely a mortal; what can she do?

Grievance, sadness, anger, disappointment—all these emotions flooded her heart.

She couldn’t do anything; her past efforts only made the man even colder, to the point where he wouldn’t even visit her.

On this day, Ye Lian held her child again, sitting under the shade by the river.

She sat on the grass, stared at the river, and tears began to fall once more.

What could she do now?

Should she be happy that at least life was worry-free and she had children?

No, she was unwilling.

Why deceive her?

"What? Unwilling? He is the Clan Leader of the White Wolf Clan. Why would you think he would always love a mortal woman like you?"

"He was merely curious and played with you, how pitiful, to take it seriously."

Ye Lian, her eyes blurred by tears, stood up holding her child upon hearing the voice, looking around, "Who, who is it? Show yourself."

"Hehe, I’m just someone who can’t stand the high-and-mighty Clan Leader of the White Wolf Clan, taking pity on you. I can help you; I can empower you through cultivation. Then, you’ll be worthy of him, won’t you?"

Ye Lian’s eyes were full of vigilance, "Who are you, why help me, why should I trust you? What’s your purpose?"

"I am the Great Demon King, naturally capable of helping you. Of course, you may choose not to believe me and continue crying every day."

Ye Lian’s eyes showed struggle, yet there was desire in her heart.

Though she left at first, she returned there the next day.

Afterwards, Ye Lian became eerily quiet.

Yang Tianlu, meanwhile, had frequent conflicts with the twins, making Li Longyun increasingly averse to Yang Tianlu.

After Li Shuning returned from seclusion, Yang Tianlu approached her to complain.

Li Shuning only smiled faintly, "Mother, don’t tell me these things. What do you want me to say? Comfort you, or help you vie for favor? Are you sure you’re not asking the wrong person? Father would rather kill me. And isn’t mother quite fond of father, thinking he’s good? So why seek me now? Mother, please leave, I need to cultivate."

Yang Tianlu felt sheer sadness; this daughter was not at all considerate.

The White Wolf Clan Land has been bustling lately, the old Clan Leader couldn’t be bothered with it.

Soon, as in the story, Li Longyun seemed to let go, and the Clan Leader did nothing to him. He frequently left the clan, bringing back woman after woman.

Three years passed thusly, and the woman who conspired with the Demon Clan in the storyline was also brought to the clan.

Quickly, the woman fell out of favor, and Li Longyun brought back other women.

Li Shuning directly emerged from seclusion; she kept a close watch on that woman.

Now, with the old Clan Leader still around, would the Demon Clan dare invade?

Li Shuning constantly monitored that woman but found no oddities.

Nor did she find any suspicious movements from the woman.

What was going on?

Li Shuning kept watching for a long time, but nothing happened, unlike in the story where the woman colluded with the Demon Clan, acting inside out.

In fact, the year after the woman arrived at the White Wolf Clan, having fallen out of favor, she made an error in her cultivation, suffered from qi deviation, and exploded to death.

Li Shuning was thoroughly dumbfounded. What was happening?

Another five years passed, and Li Shuning had become the Great Demon King, her spiritual power significantly stronger.

This time, Li Shuning straightforwardly approached the old Clan Leader.

"Grandfather, I previously went adventuring and had some fortuitous encounters, which you know about. I cultivated a Divine Skill capable of affecting the Divine Soul of those with weak will. Father, I feel something is very wrong."

"Mother always talks about how father was, but now, father—Shuning doesn’t wish to criticize him, but Shuning genuinely doesn’t understand, really wants to know what father truly thinks. He’s the Clan Leader of the White Wolf Clan, yet now the White Wolf Clan is a laughing stock among the Demon Clan."

"Girl, you want to use your Divine Skill to influence your father, to understand his thoughts?"

The old Clan Leader’s eyes held scrutiny.

Li Shuning remained fearless, meeting the old Clan Leader’s gaze, "Grandfather, yes, I want to know, otherwise peace eludes my heart."

The old Clan Leader sighed; over the years, Li Longyun indeed seemed unworthy, and this child probably felt resentment?

Was Shuning’s relentless cultivation all these years merely for today?

The old Clan Leader also wanted to know who Li Longyun truly was.

"Fine, wait for him to return."

"Grandfather, I’m sorry."

"Silly girl, Grandfather has always wanted to know who he truly is."

Now speaking of Li Longyun, reveling in his amorous successes, with various women in his arms, yet the sight of Li Shuning and Li Shuwei dampened his mood. After pondering, he sent a trusted aide to harm those two children.

He now couldn’t harness his full power, how could the children he detested have stronger skills than him?

The aide went to the Spirit Void Sect, bringing copious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Spirit Void Sect sent people to attack Li Shuwei, but Li Shuning was also present and her spiritual power proved invaluable.

The adversary’s plan failed, alerting the old Clan Leader.

Soon, the Spirit Void Sect was uprooted completely.

Yang Tianlu also learned that Li Longyun targeted the two children.

She felt disbelief, and dared not approach the two children.

She couldn’t believe it.

Surely, it must have been the women inciting discord.

Li Shuwei felt some disappointment too.

What’s mother thinking?

Father already acted against them, yet mother still remained hopeful about that man?

When Li Longyun returned to the clan, he found many awaiting his arrival.

Upon the old Clan Leader’s questioning, Li Longyun feigned ignorance, flatly denying, claiming he was out having fun and how could he have possibly acted against his children?
