1240: Communication with the Guardian

Communication with the Guardian

The two of them sped through the air, but the distance between them remained several dozens of meters.0

Qin Yu was not a fool. Of course, he could see that his father had done this on purpose, so he was not in a hurry. He just followed behind them.

The two of them sprinted for dozens of kilometers like this. Even Qin Yu's divine power began to feel a little dried up.

Finally, they arrived near a cliff.

It was a barren land, as if no one had ever set foot on it.

Looking at the near-primitive scenery around them, Qin Yu felt a little surprised.

He panted slightly, but his eyes looked straight at the rather tall man who was standing in front of him.

Qin Yu said coldly, "Why didn't you save my mother? With your ability, killing them would be effortless!"

The Guardian's back was facing Qin Yu. He seemed to have guessed that Qin Yu would ask this question, so he was not surprised.

"Tell me!"

The Guardian did not speak for a long time. Qin Yu could not help but feel a little anxious, so he burst out in a shout.

"It is my duty. I couldn't do anything." The Guardian was silent for a long time before he finally let it out.

Qin Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Just because of you duty, you ignore the woman you loved? Do you know how much criticism she has to endure because of you?"

Hearing this, the guardian let out a long sigh.

He said indifferently, "In this position, I have to ignore the feelings between individuals. Otherwise, how could I guarantee fairness and justice?"

"I have seen too many life and death separations. Whether I make a move or not, there will be a day when there will be a separation; I cannot change any outcome."

Qin Yu opened his mouth. Just as he was about to speak, the Guardian interrupted him.

He said coldly, "Do you think that I ignored it because I wanted to remain in this position? Do you think the position of the Guardian is a piece of cake?"

Qin Yu was stunned. He frowned and said, "What do you mean?"

"Since the beginning of times, this has been a difficult job. I can't explain it to you now, but you will understand it in the future," the Guardian said in a grave voice.

With Qin Yu's current state of mind, how could he understand much of what the Guardian is telling him?

All kinds of love, be it great or small, are nothing but dog crap in his eyes at the moment.

"If you can't even protect the people around you, how can you protect anyone else?" Qin Yu took a deep breath.

"You are right. I don't understand it now, and I may never understand it in the future. I think I will never understand you."

The Guardian said indifferently, "I never expected anyone to understand me, not even my own son."

Qin Yu gritted his teeth and said, "Then why did you save me? Can't you just let me die?"

Hearing this, the Guardian's body visibly shuddered .

"I don't want to answer this question," the Guardian replied coldly.

A gentle wind blew across the sky, and Qin Yu's eyes were filled with tears.

"Qin Yu, I can only say that I'm sorry," the Guardian said slowly.

"No matter how much pain you've suffered, there is nothing I can do about it now. You don't have to understand me; you can even hate me. But you have to know that I love you both."

Qin Yu stood there, sobbing.

For some reason, the grievance that had been buried in his heart for so many years exploded at this very moment.

Qin Yu couldn't see the Guardian's face clearly, nor was he able to know the expression on the Guardian's face right now.

The Guardian let out a long sigh. He was just about to speak when Qin Yu suddenly rushed over from not too far away.

The Guardian frowned slightly. He seemed to have sensed something.

However, he stood there without moving at all, as if he was prepared to endure a beating from Qin Yu.

The Guardian closed his eyes, waiting for Qin Yu's fists to unleash upon him.

However, Qin Yu, who had rushed behind the Guardian, hugged him from behind.

Even the Guardian, whose heart was as hard as stone, was slightly startled at this moment.

"Dad, I missed you so much... I've thought about you every day since I was little..."

Qin Yu leaned against the back of the Guardian, sobbing uncontrollably.

No one would not miss their parents when they were just children.

This kind of blood kindship could not be replaced by anyone.

Qin Yu had never felt the warmth from his parents, which was the main reason why he felt a lack of love since he was young, especially the love from his parents.

No matter how much Qin Yu complained, it could not drown out the longing in his heart.

The Guardian slowly turned around and looked down at Qin Yu. He said in a low voice, "Qin Yu, you will be the strongest person in this world. Your achievements will definitely surpass mine, or even anyone else. This is what me, and also what your mother, have always believed in."

Qin Yu's face was covered in tears. He wanted to say that he did not want to be the strongest person in this world, and all he really wanted was an ordinary family.

But in the end, he did not say any of this out loud. He just wiped his tears away and forced himself to hold back his grief.

The determination that flashed across his face made the Guardian feel both gratified as well as a bit of guilt and heartache.

He raised his large hand and gently patted Qin Yu on the shoulder.

"Yan Ruoxue is a good girl. You have to work harder, or else, you won't be worthy of her," said the Guardian with a gentle smile.

Qin Yu took a deep breath and clenched his fists. "I've already walked on this path. I don't have any other choices. One day, those that I protect won't be just myself."

He would also protect everyone around him.

Including the high and mighty Guardian.

Qin Yu didn't say these words out loud. Instead, he buried them deep inside his heart.

He was done complaining. He was done complaining about his troubled past. He still had to live his life.

Qin Yu, without lingering any longer, turned around to leave.

No one knew what the Guardian was thinking about as he looked at Qin Yu's departing figure.

A moment later, his figure slowly disappeared. It was as if he had merged into the void, disappearing without a trace.
