Our Binding Love: My Gentle Tyrant

Are We Still Friends? (1)

“As for my mother…” the monk laughed, “She was the Empress at the time.
She was in power and ruled tens of thousands of people.
Even though she dismissed all handsome males for my father, she also wouldn’t become a true family with my father and me.”

Hearing this, Ye Mu couldn’t help but feel bad for the Silent monk’s father.
Simultaneously, while the Silent Master’s internal force was being transferred to her, she also could feel the sadness and suffering within him.

Unfortunately, I didn’t understand the situation as a child… I didn’t know why my father was still a monk even though he already had a child.
I couldn’t comprehend why he was so infatuated with her… He liked my mother to the point that he would willingly abandon Buddha’s teaching and use the temple as a fast and convenient place to help my mother find out important news and information.
He put in all his effort into helping her… yet day after day, he condemned himself… and when I was ten years old, my father finally lost it…”

His voice was frigid, as his eyes reflected with the image of his father’s hysterical face.

“My father could tolerate it anymore and lost his mind due to the pain and suffering of self condemnation.
He then came up with the absurd thought and wished for my mother to abandon everything to be with him.”

“After he came up with this idea, his whole mentality was very different.
He was no longer gloomy as he thought of all possible futures.
However, as expected, my mother refused him.
She couldn’t even consider the idea of it.
She even thought that my father was crazy…”

When the monk said this, his voice already sounded a lot older.
He chuckled bitterly, his smile held a sneer in it.

“How my mother saw it, she would lose her supreme power and my father would lose his highly esteemed status as a senior monk.
She felt it was silly of them to flee their status.
She didn’t even consider the idea; she simply refused.
At that time, I was hiding in another room and overheard them quarreling.
When I looked through a window, I saw how my mother rejected my father in an instant.
My father was in a daze and I saw how the light in his eyes dissipated.
I could even feel his heart’s brilliance fade in that moment.

“You could easily guess what happened next: after my mother rejected him, he lost all hope and his health started to decline significantly.
Yet, he still loved my mother dearly.
So even if she refused, he didn’t make a big deal of the matter whatsoever.
She thought he needed time to regain his senses, so she didn’t visit him for a very long time period…”

“Unexpectedly one day, as my father looked forward to seeing my mother, he overheard a visitor say that mother started to indulge in her circle of boy toys again.
He laughed abruptly before vomiting blood incessantly the next second.
The blood spilled even landed on me.
I felt right then, I wouldn’t be able to listen to my father anymore and couldn’t love my own mother the same.”

The Silent Master’s voice gradually weakened.
As his vitality poured into Ye Mu, she could do nothing but passively accept it.

“In the end my father passed away.
By his will, I inherited Tianshou Temple.
As ridiculous as it was I blamed her for his death in my heart.
Nevertheless, when I heard the news that Mo Linyuan had returned, my first reaction was concern for my mother.
When you were delivered into my hands, I had ill intent flashing through my mind as I read you scriptures.
Which ultimately caused your evil tendencies to awaken further.
In truth, If I had not done so, you would have resembled your father’s situation: you would simply have out of control emotions and incapable to control temperament, but would still remain sane and nothing irreparable.”

“Now is my chance to correct this mistake.
My internal force is the most honest and pure in its core.
Adding on my life vitality, it ought to completely change the composition of the devil arts within you.
From now on you will possess 100 years of pure internal force.
In the future, regardless of whatever type of martial arts you want to learn you will be able to learn it all.
Furthermore, you will become the world’s strongest individual.
Does that please you…?”

…Regardless whether it pleased her or not, in this moment, the Silent Master was truly happy for her.
