At dawn, Yu Huang’s phone ran out of battery. Only then did Kong Qing reluctantly lick his lips and
return the phone to Yu Huang.
Yu Huang held onto her phone and asked Kong Qing, “You played games for the whole night?”
“Yeah,” Kong Qing said. “It was fun.”
Yu Huang put away her phone and said, “Children shouldn’t play with phones. It’s not good for their
eyes.” She said to Lin Jiansheng, “My phone is out of battery. Use your phone to call the police.”
The sky was bright. Kong Qing should leave.
“Are you sending me away?” Kong Qing looked at Yu Huang pitifully.
Yu Huang acknowledged it.
Lin Jiansheng added, “Your biological parents must be searching for you all over the world. Don’t worry,
the police will find your parents through your DNA.”
Now that everyone would had their DNA recorded in the DNA database, the police could easily help
Kong Qing find his parents.
Kong Qing said, “Actually, my mother is dead.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Huang and Lin Jiansheng were slightly surprised.
Lin Jiansheng said, “I thought you didn’t remember your home?”
Kong Qing looked at the pile of ashes and smiled sadly. He said, “When my mother was about to give
birth, my father secretly sent someone to throw her to Broken Cliff. I was peeled from my mother’s
womb.”
Kong Qing was on the verge of tears. His small hands gripped the corner of Lin Jiansheng’s shirt tightly
as he begged, “Don’t send me back, okay? My mom and mother are both here. I don’t want to leave
Broken Cliff.”
Afraid that they would not believe him, Kong Qing deliberately pointed in the direction of Duan Tianya
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand said, “If you don’t believe me, I can bring you to Broken Cliff to see my home. My mother’s remains
are on my bed. I can onlu sleep with my mother’s remains.”
Kong Qing’s words were frightening and heartbreaking.
Yu Huang and Lin Jiansheng, both unable to make up their minds, exchanged glances.
Yu Huang thought of something and suddenly asked Kong Qing, “When were you born?”
Kong Qing thought for a moment and said, “I don’t know. But when I was born, there weren’t any
shotguns or phones. At that time, hunters always came out hunting with knives and bows.”
The shotgun had been developed two hundred years ago, and Kong Qing said there weren’t any
shotguns when he was born. Thinking back to what Kong Qing had said last night, about how he was
already over seven hundred years old, Yu Huang suddenly realized that what the kid had said might be
true.
“What are you?” Yu Huang stared at Kong Qing. Her gaze was sharp and piercing “Are you a human or
a monster?”
Kong Qing looked even more confused. “I don’t know what I am,” he said.
Lin Jiansheng reached out and pulled Kong Qing to his side. He placed his head on Kong Qing’s chest
and listened. When he heard the little fellow’s beating heart, Lin Jiansheng told Yu Huang, “He’s a
human.”
Yu Huang nodded.
With the wind in her left hand, she picked up the snow on the ground with one hand and covered the
bonfire with it before extinguishing the fire. Yu Huang and Lin Jiansheng turned around and headed in
the direction of Broken Cliff.
Kong Qing stared at their backs for a long time before following them.
The two did not deliberately wait for Kong Qing. Kong Qing jogged to catch up with them. The three of
them did not stop and walked ten kilometers in one breath.
Thump!
As they descended the hill, Kong Qing lost his balance. His body rolled down a small slope and his
waist hit a hard rock. He sprawled on the ground and grunted. He didn’t cry.
Seeing that Lin Jiansheng and the rest did not even turn their heads, Kong Qing sniffed, stood up, and
chased after them shakily.
After walking another two hundred meters, Lin Jiansheng suddenly sighed. He said, “I don’t like to see
children suffering.”
With that, Lin Jiansheng turned around and walked towards Kong Qing while ignoring Yu Huang.
Kong Qing’s face was pale from the pain. Seeing Lin Jiansheng walk towards him, Kong Qing suddenly
broke into a happy smile.
“You’re back,” Kong Qing said with a grin. “You didn’t leave me behind.”
“You talk too much!” Lin Jiansheng bent down in front of Kong Qing and said, “Lie down!”
Kong Qing tiptoed and climbed onto Lin Jiansheng’s back.
Lin Jiansheng carried him and walked towards Broken Cliff. As he walked, he said, “I’m only
responsible for sending you back to your home. After that, Yu Huang and I still have important matters
to attend to. We won’t care about you anymore.”
This child grew up in Broken Cliff. He had grown up absorbing poisonous gas and grievous energy, so
his physique was definitely not ordinary. If he was left alone in Broken Cliff, he could still survive.
But Kong Qing said firmly, “You won’t.”
Lin Jiansheng snorted. “I will.”
“You won’t.” Kong Qing held Lin Jiansheng’s ears that had turned red from the cold. He said, “You are
the purest and cleanest person I have ever met.”
Lin Jiansheng blushed at his compliment. “Don’t praise me!”
Kong Qing caught a patch of white snow and said, “Your soul is as pure white as snow.”
If it was last night, Lin Jiansheng would have thought that Kong Qing was spouting nonsense.
However, after learning that Kong Qing was a monster that grew up in Broken Cliff, Lin Jiansheng no
longer thought so.
Yu Huang suddenly turned around and asked Kong Qing, “Tell me, what color is my soul?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKong Qing said, “It’s red. It’s the color of flames.”
Yu Huang fell silent.
Finally, when it was almost dark, they reached the end of the primeval forest. At the end of the forest
was a straight, curved cliff, and below the cliff was the Broken Cliff.
Broken Cliff was actually a basin. It was located in a basin at the edge of the primeval forest and
surrounded by precipitous cliffs.
Due to the layer of poisonous gas enveloping Broken Cliff, the color of the poisonous gas looked as
pure and clean as a white cloud. Therefore, when one stood on the mountain peak and looked at
Broken Cliff, one would feel as though one could see all the mountains from above.
This was the second time Yu Huang came to Broken Cliff, but she was still shocked by the
magnificence of Broken Cliff.
Lin Jiansheng stared at the boundless poisonous gas barrier below and said, “We will be living here
this winter.”
“Yes.” Yu Huang asked Lin Jiansheng, “The poisonous gas below is too strong. How did you live inside
for five years?”
Lin Jiansheng said, “I was already a Level 7 Purifying Spirit Master back then. This bit of resentment is
nothing to be afraid of.”
Lin Jiansheng passed a small bottle to Yu Huang and said, “This is a Heart-Cleansing Pill that I bought
at a high price. Eat it and you will be able to keep your mind clear and not be harmed by the
resentment.”
“I said some time ago that I was going to prepare something. This is it.”
“That’s just one of them.”
“Thank you.” Yu Huang opened the bottle, took out a dark green pill, and swallowed it without
hesitation.
The moment the pill entered her mouth, Yu Huang immediately felt refreshed.
