Double Cultivation
why don't you accept me?
Stupid girl, what are you doing?" After the moment of his shock, Su Yang shook his head and went to take out the Qiuyue robe, returning it.
"No matter how angry you are, there are things you shouldn't do as a woman .." said Su Yang.
"I won't do anything like that again, I promise, so you don't have to do it anymore either" he continued.
"…" Qiuyue clenched his hands, and he said, "You're cruel, father …"
"Why don't you accept me? Knowing you, you should have been aware of my feelings for you long ago .." Qiuyue said sadly.
Su Yang's movements froze, and he looked into his eyes and said with a helpless expression, "I know, but you …"
"Because I'm his daughter? Because you don't want to touch the daughter of the woman you love? Did she?" Qiuyue did not plan to let her go so easily this time, as he was already prepared for the consequences.
With a bitter smile, Su Yang said, "No, not that. Your status as Yuehai's daughter has nothing to do with it."
There were countless times when Su Yang held his mother and daughter in each of his arms, so her status as Yuehai's daughter had no effect on his mind.
"If my status isn't a problem, then why don't you accept me like you do with almost every other woman out there ?! Why am I different ?!" qiuyue said with his eyes reddened.
"It's a bit complicated, but do you remember when I said Yuehai was dying at some point?" said Su Yang helplessly.
"What's—" before qiuyue finishes he said cut off.
"You are not aware, but people from your bloodline are special, or rather, cursed .. If you cultivate with anyone who does not belong to your bloodline, you will die." Su Yang explained.
"What ?! Why haven't I heard of it? And is that the reason my mother almost died .." said Qiuyue in surprise.
"yes, it's because he ignored the consequences and cultivated with me. If I had known about it before, I would never have touched it." Su Yang said.
Qiuyue was silent. Her mother was actually so sure that she would die just to actually be with him? That's how much he loves her?
"But if you manage to keep him alive, then why can't you do the same to me? I'm also willing to risk my life on—"
"You're not Yuehai, Qiuyue!" Su Yang raised his voice, sounding somewhat angry. "Look at your cultivation base! you are only in the Divine God Realm while Yuehai is an Immortal when that happens, and he barely manages to live! you won't last even a second under the effects of that curse! Even if we ignore your cultivation base, your Heavenly Constitution is also unsatisfactory! "
"…"
Qiuyue did not know how to answer him after hearing such words. Indeed, his cultivation was not only lacking but outright trash when considering his bloodline and age. Although he might be at the top of the chain in this world, his presence within the Four Divine Heavens would not match that of an ant even!
Tears began to appear in Qiuyue's eyes. This was the first time he had felt so upset at his own cultivation base. He felt desperate. If only he had not left the Four Divine Heavens and deprived himself of the Profound Qi that would have helped him Cultivate. If only he had not arrived in this world, where a simple Profound Qi was too low for him to cultivate properly. But that meant that he would not learn about Su Yang's existence, something that he couldn't accept either.
"Dad, I—"
Su Yang suddenly kissed his lips, puzzling Qiuyue, who was unprepared for his attack.
"This is the best I can do to answer your feelings for now. Although I can't fully accept you now, it won't stay that way forever – I promise."
After his moment of shock, Qiuyue timidly smiled and nodded.
"Go get some rest for now. I must cultivate the remaining Yin Qi in my Dantian before it goes to waste."
After straightening his robe, Qiuyue then asked him,
"i don't know about this curse for my bloodline but there's no way the Moon God doesn't know ... How did the two of you not get caught after such a big incident?" qiuyue was confused
"You should have known this already but Yuehai was really talented at making up stories. If he doesn't want you to know something, you'll most likely never know." Su Yang laughed.
Qiuyue also smiled after hearing his words. Indeed, his mother was quite talented in that aspect. After all, he had managed to keep his relationship with Su Yang a secret for many years while together inside the Holy Moon Palace, where the Moon God had his eyes on every corner. It wouldn't be an exaggeration if he called such a feat a miracle.
"But you are also good at lying," Qiuyue said to her with a smile.
Su Yang said nothing and only smiled bitterly.
A while later, after Qiuyue straightened his robe, he went to one of the two available rooms to rest.
Su Yang also entered his room.
Inside his room, Su Yang sat by the window and looked at the night sky, thinking about what had just happened.
"Since the Moon God hated the thought of his precious bloodline appearing outside the Holy Moon Palace, he cursed his own family, completely sealing such a possibility."
"However, since he isolated his bloodline within his own household, everyone within the Holy Moon Palace was connected to each other as a family, as well as the family, hence why many people hid such a humiliation towards that place."
Due to the curse, the people inside the Holy Moon Palace had no choice but to continue their inheritance with each other, imposing inces/bloody on the entire place.
In fact, such a practice ended up being one of their natural instincts after several generations and why Qiuyue loved Su Yang regardless of the way he looked at him.
"Although I was incapable then, Moon God, I will definitely fix your unlucky spot this time once I return to Divine Heaven!" Su Yang thought to himself before clearing his mind to Cultivate the remaining Yin Qi within his body.
