Chapter 1268 Haunting Guilt



Chapter 1268  Haunting Guilt

Tang Shaoyang furrowed his brow after listening to Zhang Mengyao. The reason Zhang Mengyao asked to meet him first was to remind him not to tell Ava about Virion, in case he already knew what happened to Virion. However, he did not know anything about what happened to Virion and he later found out Virion was dead. The Myth Rank Player, The Elven King, died in his brother’s hand after Revalor betrayal.

Tang Shaoyang slumped on the chair and massaged his face. This was the price of his wrongdoings, he failed to control his lust and did what he hated the most. This was his karma, and he might lose his first children if Ava knew that her eldest son died. The worst part was that her son did not die at the hands of the enemy, but her second son, plotted by her ex-husband. That was the worst part, and if she knew about that, without a doubt that would get into her health, not just her physical, but also her mental which might affect the baby inside her belly.

“But it’s just too cruel to keep it secret from her,” Tang Shaoyang understood why Zhang Mengyao wanted to keep it secret. It was for the baby, but that was just too cruel for Ava. She should be informed, the first one should be informed about the death of her eldest son. If she found out later, she would feel very awful. She lived peacefully without knowing the death of her son.

“We will tell her after she gives birth, but not now. Telling her now will risk the life of the baby inside her,” Zhang Mengyao understood the feeling, but keeping it secret from Ava was the best option they had. She would do the same even if time returned back to where Virion killed.

“Where’s Arbane and Revalor right now?”

“They are in our dungeon. We are waiting for you before deciding their punishment,” Zhang Mengyao sighed. This was supposed to be a happy reunion between her and Tang Shaoyang, but it was ruined because of Reinar. She blamed Reinar for all of this, the person who gave Revalor the courage to do this.

“We also caught Reinar, the mastermind behind Revalor’s attack. Revalor got the Giteron Dynasty’s support, that’s why Revalor has the courage to do all of that.”

“What about the situation with the Federation of Allurion and the Divine Church? Are they starting their attack yet?” Tang Shaoyang made no comment about Reinar and the Giteron Dynasty. Of course, it did not mean he was going to let them be after trying to scheme against his empire. However, the imminent danger was coming from the Federation of Allurion and the Divine Church. He would take care of these two first before going after the Giteron Dynasty.

“They are besieging our territories in Europe and also our border in South East Asia, but they haven’t launched a single attack yet. If our guess is right, they are waiting for their God Ranks to descend to ensure their win,” Zhang Mengyao went on in detail about the current situation. There was no big battle or even a small skirmish against the World Government yet, but their armies were at the border. The situation about the First Order Guild and how they have annihilated The Giteron Dynasty’s force from Earth. She ensured not to miss a single detail, including the estimation of when the God Ranks would arrive on Earth which was in a week.

If Redvers Scovel did not lie in their last meeting that the God Rank would arrive in one month, then the God Ranks would descend on Earth in a week.

“I see….” Tang Shaoyang muttered. He had made the decision what was their next step. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and released it in one go, “I am glad that I returned earlier instead of finishing the last floor of the Dimensional Tower.” He stood up, “Let’s not keep it secret anymore from Ava. She deserves to know about the death of her eldest son. It’s stupid, but something stupid someone is something right to do.”

Honesty, Tang Shaoyang believed honesty was the best foundation in the relationship. He should not keep it a secret even if it meant hurting Ava. The longer he kept it secret from her, the more she would get hurt.

“I know it might affect the baby, but this is still the right thing to do. The longer we keep it secret from Ava, she will get hurt more that we keep it hidden from her for so long. We must believe in her that she is strong and the baby will not be affected. We have to trust her,” Tang Shaoyang smiled, “I will tell Ava the news myself. Can you get someone to trim my hair and beard? I think I am quite smelly.”

*** ***

Tang Shaoyang stood in front of the mirror, looking at his new look. He kept his hair long, around his shoulder. Not just the hair, he kept his beard as well, but he trimmed it so it was not as messy as before, neat and tidy. There was no smile on his face because he felt useless. Despite the power he had, he still made someone close to him sad. He even noticed the stress on Zhang Mengyao at the first meeting. He had the power, but he could not make the people close to him happy. He suddenly felt he was doing everything wrong.

Tang Shaoyang let out a sigh and turned around from the mirror, heading to the 25th floor. At this time, the news of his return had spread to the high-ranking official. Many people wanted to meet him, but he refused to meet them for now, not until he met Ava. He felt like he needed to resolve the personal issue first before putting his focus on his empire’s affairs. 𝐧𝑢𝑣𝖾𝐋𝗇𝐄xt.𝑐𝑢𝓢

Ava was in the last month of her pregnancy. The Doctor estimated Ava would give birth in a week or two weeks at the longest. This was a crucial month for her, and she spent most of her time in Tang Shaoyang’s room.

Tang Shaoyang opened the door slowly, without making any noise. He found Ava in the living room, sitting next to the window. He slowly approached her and hugged her from behind. That surprised Ava for a moment until she heard his voice, “I am back.”

Ava jumped out of the chair and turned around in surprise, “Welcome back~” She was so happy that she jumped again into Tang Shaoyang’s embrace. Her reaction made everything harder. He could not bear to deliver the news of the death of her eldest son after seeing her reaction to his return. He thought of backing out and wanted to keep the news secret until she gave birth.

‘I have to tell her now.’

“You can’t jump around like thatβ€”” Ava put her finger on Tang Shaoyang’s lips, “I am healthy and strong. There’s no need to worry, the baby is safe.” She looked down on her bulging belly, caressing her belly with love.

Tang Shaoyang picked her up and brought her to the bed, “I can’t do it.” Ava misunderstood Tang Shaoyang’s action.

“I know. I am not asking for it, but there’s something I have to tell you. Something very important,” He held her shoulders, looking into her eyes with a solemn look.

Ava smiled, “Alright, I am ready for this important news.”

Tang Shaoyang took a deep breath and said, “Virion is dead. Someone killed him during the fight in Europe.”
