The God of War
The Truth That Is Beginning to Reveal
"Where are our sons and grandfathers? Usually grandfather would always look after me and give me herbal medicine when I was sick." Lily looked at Zhou curiously, because ever since she realized she had still not seen Hiroki Feng nor the son.
Zhou's smile slowly froze as he began to remember Hiroki Feng who had fallen 3 days ago while fighting against the demonic air.
"Our son is with your aunt and uncle. They were also in the care of the soldiers. Take it easy." said Zhou began to feed Lily. "Come .. Open your mouth, wife. You have to eat a lot to restore your body's energy.
Lily obediently opened her mouth and accepted the bribe.
"Hows it? Is this delicious?"
Lily nodded faintly and smiled faintly. In just a few minutes, the suo was already spent by Lily. However, Lily still had something going wrong, because Zhou did not answer her question when she asked Hiroki Feng.
"Suami, where's grandpa? Is grandpa okay? I'm worried, because it's not what it used to be. Usually grandfather will always accompany and take care of me. Grandfather will give her herbal medicine when I'm sick. But ... Since this whole day, I haven't seen grandpa ..." Lily looked so worried.
Zhou sighed then took it out slowly. He grabbed Lily's fingers and looked at her closely, then Zhou began to tell Lily all about it.
As if she had just felt a thunderbolt attack, Lily's body trembled and her pair of beautiful beads began to glaze over. His pale lips trembled speechless, for his tongue had suddenly become a mute.
In just a matter of seconds, those warm tears began to drench his pale cheeks. It felt like his world had instantly become shattered. The one who had always cared for her since she was a child, was now gone forever.
The one who had been most compassionate in his life and had always protected him under any circumstances, had now gone to abandon himself. How devastated and lost Lily was at this moment.
Lily lowered her head and shook her head weakly, she hoped that all that was happening right now was just a dream. And he wants to wake up from his current nightmare.
But how many times did he convince himself that this was all a dream, all in vain. Because this is what is really happening right now.
"No ... impossible .. hiks .. grandpa ... hiks ..." Lily was crying and her voice sounded very raucous and stifling.
Zhou grabbed his body and hugged him warmly. Immerse Lily's head inside the chest of her field and gently rub her head.
"I'm sorry for not being able to protect my grandfather back then. Sorry, Wife ... This time I'm the one who will take full care of you." said Zhou raucously and also felt very guilty.
Lily did not answer him, she continued to cry and cry. I think that's all he wants to do right now.
"Please take me to Grandpa's grave. I wish to visit her .." pinta Lily after a long time she cried over all this.
Zhou nodded in agreement to the wife's request. Then he immediately drove Lily to a pusara that was still located around the Fumio palace.
Long enough, Lily sat down in front of Hiroki Feng's tomb. His still weak body finally started collapsing again after a while. Zhou immediately brought him back to the pavillions by cradling forward.
...⚜⚜⚜...
Zhou went to his father who was in his room. Lately this old man always spends his time in the room. And I seem to be thinking a lot about things.
Even palace servants also often deliver food for him, although sometimes only eaten a little or sometimes not touched by him.
The old man looked at the garden outside through the window of his room.
"Hadess ... How's Lily doing? Can you hear he's conscious?" asked the father turned to look at Zhou.
"It has started to improve, Father." replied Zhou with his flat face.
He seemed to want to convey something, but still hesitated.
"Thank God. I want to meet you guys. Take him and come to the main hall the day after tomorrow. There's something my father wants to tell you to both" said the old man stroking his white beard.
"Okay, Daddy."
"Go back and accompany him. For now, you don't have to travel anywhere!"
"Well." said Zhou obediently, but he did not immediately rush to leave this large room.
"Ayahanda .." said Zhou again looking up at the old man.
"Yes? Is there something you want to say, my son?"
"Why hasn't my father ever said anything about my mother?" ask Zhou finally.
The look on my father's face changed immediately. Which was originally warm, now instantly became cold but there was also sadness in it.
"You return. Lily needs you right now. Take care of him because he's sick right now" said the father, switching the conversation.
"Until when will my father hide all that from me? I'm old enough to know all that, Daddy. Why do you keep going like this?"
The old man was silent for a while and sighed.
"Actually ..your mother is alive, my son. She was the youngest daughter of the Celestial Emperor. And our race is very different. We were once together and married in this mortal realm. But ... she left us at that time after giving birth to you." said the father with a look filled with sadness and disappointment.
"Have ..forget it, my Son. It would be better if we had no more contact with him. Because ... he no longer wants us ..." added father trying to smile back.
"Yahanda's wrong! Instead, the mother left us because she did not want to make us threatened. Mother was even willing to bear all the punishment of the sky alone! He was locked up and sealed within the Western Sky Garden. He did all that just to protect us, Father .." said Zhou with the beads that had started to glaze over.
Listening to Zhou's words made the previous Emperor Fumio frown and stare at Zhou elaborately.
"Why are you saying all that, my son? How do you know all that? Your mother never even said goodbye or left a letter when she left. Then ... why can you say all those things?" the previous Emperor did not understand.
"I broke my father's prohibition, and instead went to the Western Sky Garden to refine the holy and pure energy there. I'm sorry, Ayahanda. But this time I'll do whatever it takes to keep Lily. And I have to get that energy for Lily." Zhou said honestly.
"Then? Did you meet him?" ask father to guess.
Zhou nodded faintly, "Right, I met with mother. And I will also save your mother and take her out of that place! I'll meet the Celestial Emperor!" he was full of confidence.
