BXBX NOVEL Chapter 272 Sealed Memories
Jun Tianyun spoke in a low voice. Jun Wudao quivered as he looked at Jun Tianyun. He glanced at the men around him.
" Yes, There is no one."
Jun Wudao suddenly got up from the wheelchair and hugged Jun Tianyun. Jun Tianyun was stunned when he saw that.
" The fuck? You can walk??"
Jun Wudao chuckled. " Of course, I can. I just wanted to see your reaction after seeing your poor grandpa like that."
Jun Tianyun fumed as he couldn\'t help but wish to strangle to the old man to death.
" Well, Can you recognize your grandpa?" Jun Wudao asked with a grin.
" Nope, I don\'t even know who you are." Jun Tianyun replied with a flat tone.
Jun Wudao\'s smile didn\'t change. " Well, It would be weird if you recognized me. Well, come with me…"
Jun Wudao dragged Jun Tianyun into the courtyard. Jun Tianyun couldn\'t help but become a bit surprised.
" Formation?"
" Oh, you seem pretty knowledgable. As expected of my grandson." Jun Wudao laughed.
The formation around the entire area was made up of 36 nodes. After entering, Jun Tianyun could see how grand the place is.
It was made with an ancient design with delicate architecture. Jun Tianyun could guess that this estate was alone 300 years old. However, it looked simply new-like.
" This is Sky Illusion Formation. It makes the surrounding fengshui better. Also, it also works as a defensive illusion formation, to protect the house and trap any intruder."
Jun Tianyun nodded as Jun Wudao walked him around, showing him everything. However, Jun Tianyun was waiting for Jun Wudao to tell him about his past.
" Grandfather… Where are my parents?" Jun Tianyun finally asked. Jun Wudao\'s face turned stiff as he looked at the sky.
" Child, You must think I am avoiding you from telling you the past, huh?"
" Isn\'t that so?" Jun Tianyun sneered. " Someone comes to me randomly, saying I have a family when I thought I am an orphan."
" Then, when I suppose to go back to my family, people came and tried to kill me. Don\'t you think I deserve answer for all these?"
" Why can I remember anything? Why I can\'t remember you, My grandfather. Why can\'t I remember my parents!"
Jun Wudao remained silent as he beckoned Jun Tianyun. " Come with me, Child. Let\'s go to the ancestral hall."
Jun Tianyun nodded as he followed Jun Wudao. In the estate, there are quite many people. However, when they saw Jun Wudao, their face lit up with respect and admiration.
When they arrived at the ancestral hall, Jun Tianyun could see the many portraits hung on the wall.
The paintings looked exquisite, as they depicted the ancestors of the Jun Family. The golden incense burner gave off a pleasant smell as the hall looked very royal.
Jun Wudao sighed as he walked forward.
" Since you are here, You should have knowledge about the Five Aristrocrat Families, no? What do you think about Jun Family and them?"
Jun Tianyun listened to Jun Wudao. " Well, The five great families aren\'t just empty shells. However, calling them the only overlords will be a bit of a stretch."
" As for Jun Family, I can say that you guys hid yourself very deeply." Jun Tianyun glanced at Jun Wudao as he spoke.
" You can say that." Jun Wudao spoke.
" Do you know, the history of the Jun Family goes back to earlier dynasties."
" A thousand years ago, when people heard the name of Jun Family of Blackwind Mountain, they used to with fear."
" Why? Were we that powerful?" Jun Tianyun raised his brows. Jun Wudao nodded.
" Indeed, How can they not fear the most fearsome group of bandits?"
" Bandits? You are saying our forefathers were bandits?" Jun Tianyun was shocked. Jun Wudao chuckled. " Yep, You can say that. Our forefathers were the most notorious bandits in the history."
" Our slogan: Jun Family, the bandits of Three Realms. Who can keep things safe if we want it!"
" Later, when the feudal war started, our ancestors decided to take this opportunity and discard their background to become white-washed nobles."
" And we succeeded. For the next few generations, we became the richest merchant family."
" But then, disaster struck as a great cataclysm happened. Our family and empire got devastated."
" But thankfully, Our ancestor found the chance to turn his fortune and increase our family\'s martial power."
" What stage has he reached?" Jun Tianyun asked. Jun Wudao grinned when he heard that. " He surpassed Xiantian Realm."
Jun Tianyun\'s eyes squinted when he heard that. Surpassing Xiantian Realm is simply a heavenly feat itself.
" And then…"
" Stop, I want to hear about the present situation, not our family\'s past."
Jun Wudao sighed. " I had three sons. Your father was my youngest son. He was a talented person, Reached the Houtian Realm at the age of 30."
" Then he met your mother, who was also a Houtian Realm Master."
" After a few months of their marriage, they got attacked by an unknown force. Your parents fought bravely, but then, they became defensive since your mother was pregnant."
"When you were one year old, they got attacked again. But from then, both of them disappeared." Jun Wudao sighed.
" Very much chances, they are dead."
Jun Tianyun quivered when he heard that. His knuckles cracked as he felt like he was going to explode from anger. However, he calmed himself down.
" But it didn\'t end there. Jun Family got attacked, again and again, damaging our resources and prestige. We decided to lay low. However, those bastards… They killed your second uncle."
" Your eldest uncle recalled all force as they became very much defensive from that day, cutting off relation with the secular world. But in the end, we repelled those bastards."
" What about me?" Jun Tianyun asked. Jun Wudao nodded as he walked forward to the altar, taking out a box.
" You grew up happily, along with your dear elder cousin. She protected you from everything."
" It was those days when our family was still in a dangerous situation. A single wrong step and our ancient family would be destroyed."
" When you are 14 year old, you got stuck by a terrible poison. It was a poison that never appeared in this world before." Jun Wudao sighed. As he opened the box.
Jun Tianyun\'s eyebrows jumped violently as he realized what Jun Wudao was talking about.
" Finally an eccentric daoist came as he sealed all the poison in your Eight Governing Meridians. It saved your life, but also sealed your path of becoming a martial artist."
" He calculated your fate and said: You are carrying the star of misfortune. If you stay closer to your relatives, you will only bring death and destruction. Even the poison was sealed, it\'s doubtful if you live past 18."
" However, he also said that there is a chance you can manage to overcome this tribulation of fate. And when it will happen…" Jun Wudao smiled as he looked at Jun Tianyun.
" Thus, I erased your memories and abandoned you. I cut off all relationships between you and the Jun Family. I was cruel, Yes. But I need to choose between my grandson and my clan…and I chose my clan."
He passed Jun Tianyun a talisman.
It was pitch black paper with intricate golden runes drawn over it. Jun Tianyun was surprised when he realized it was a Grade 5 talisman!
" Tear it and paste it in your forehead. You will know everything."
Jun Tianyun remained silent for a while. But he didn\'t hesitate anymore as he did that.
Suddenly, his mind jolted as he felt like his soul was dragged into an endless sea of memories.
Along with the vast scenes he experienced, some new memories slowly appeared.
Jun Tianyun could see himself playing with his cousin. He could also remember Jun Wudao doting on him greater than anyone. He slowly remembered his childhood along with his happy time.
And finally…
" En, Yun\'er looking so beautiful. My son is the most beautiful child in the world."
" Hehe, He will also become the most powerful martial artist."
Jun Tianyun could finally see their faces. His mom and dad…
" Yun\'er, Mommy, and Dad love you so much. Grow up well, alright?"
Teardrops soaked his cheeks as Jun Tianyun opened his eyes. Jun Wudao\'s expression was calm. But when he looked at Jun Tianyun, his heart was filled with guilt and shame.
He hugged Jun Tianyun tightly.
" I am sorry, Yun\'er. Grandfather is so sorry. I tried, I tried to protect everyone. But… I didn\'t have any choice. Yun\'er, Only if grandpa was more powerful…"
Jun Tianyun finally hugged back Jun Wudao.
" It\'s alright, Grandpa. Now I am here, I will settle everything." Jun Tianyun spoke with a proudful voice.
" Haha! Good! My good grandson! Now you have returned, I have finally found my strength back. Hahaha! This old man is so happy!"
Jun Tianyun\'s expression changed when he hugged Jun Wudao.
" Grandpa…You are poisoned!"
Jun Wudao was startled as he couldn\'t help but smile wryly. " Well, It\'s just an old matter. Don\'t worry, about it, I am fine."
" What fine! Quickly get over. I will treat the poison out."
Jun Wudao was amused. " Xiao Yun (As you already guessed, Xiao means Little), I am fine. Besides, this poison has no cure. It\'s something from Black Ghost Sect After all."
" Black Ghost Sect?" Jun Tianyun\'s eyes flashed with a cold glint. " I will remember that. But for now, you can just relax. There is no poison in the world that I can\'t handle."
" En… Fine, I would like to see your skills with my own eyes."
Jun Wudao laughed. " Come inside."

In a distant place, the sky was clear as waves rippled in the lake. The wooden boat moved lightly as an old man was fishing.
Suddenly, he took off his conical straw hat as he looked at the sky,
" Soul Sealing Charm got broken. So, Jun Qian\'s son really returned. Such a fate…" The old man became amused.
" Thankfully, I made the right choice. Now, I can finally catch bigger fish."
Pulling out his string, a golden swordfish jumped out of the lake.
