The City’s Strongest Son-in-law Chapter 1422 - 1421: You Meng’s Secret

In fact, this matter counts as You Meng’s secret, a secret that no one has ever known before. Now that she has told this secret to Su Changfeng, it seems she is really ready to accept her fate. Otherwise, how could she so casually tell Su Changfeng about such a thing?

"Are you sure?" Seeing that You Meng’s expression was not one of joking, Su Changfeng thought for a moment. It seemed that You Meng really had no reason to lie to him.

But if that’s the case, then this news is truly shocking. After all, all the experts Su Changfeng had seen before were very old. Without long years of training, one wouldn’t possess such formidable strength.

But if what You Meng said was true, that she could become a Primordial Master before the age of 30? What kind of concept is that!

"Do I look like I’m lying to you? In fact, when I was 25, I was already a Primordial Master," You Meng said.

"How did you achieve that? It’s unbelievable!" Su Changfeng asked, full of curiosity.

If not for the augmentation from the Fate Fruit and the bones, the current Su Changfeng probably would have been just an ordinary person. So he couldn’t imagine how You Meng did it, to leap to the Primordial Level at such a young age.

"What if I told you I was raised by an Exotic Beast in the Sourceless Forest, would you believe it?" You Meng asked.

Raised by an Exotic Beast in the Sourceless Forest?

These words sound a bit ridiculous, but they’re not impossible.

But as far as he knew, the Exotic Beasts on the Tianyuan Continent were generally very fierce, and many of them even liked to eat humans. If You Meng could survive in such an environment, it must be said it was a miracle.

"The Fate Fruit grows in the Sourceless Forest, and although the Fate Fruit is very precious to many people, at that time, I could completely treat the Fate Fruit as fruit to eat," You Meng said.

Treating the Fate Fruit as fruit to eat?

Back in the Infinite Cave of Tuo Shi, Su Changfeng and the others also treated the Fate Fruit as fruit to eat.

"So you’re saying, the Exotic Beast raised you using the Fate Fruit?" Su Changfeng asked.

Noticing the curiosity on Su Changfeng’s face, with no hint of shock, You Meng felt a bit strange. After all, this kind of experience, no matter who was told, they would probably feel shocked, but Su Changfeng showed only curiosity and no astonishment.

Her guess was right, Su Changfeng was definitely not that simple.

"It’s not entirely like that. Besides eating the Fate Fruit, I could eat other things. In my memory, every day when I woke up, there would always be many wild chickens and rabbits beside me, but it was only raw meat, or I would eat the flowers and plants in the Sourceless Forest," You Meng continued to explain.

"Your experience is indeed unique, but since you grew up in the Sourceless Forest, how did you leave the Sourceless Forest? How did you learn to speak?" Su Changfeng curiously asked.

"That day, it went out like usual to find Fate Fruit for me to eat, but it never came back. I knew it must have encountered danger. Without it, I was very scared, so I left the place where I used to live. I kept walking forward and eventually walked out of the Sourceless Forest and saw a world I had never seen before. I suppose I was lucky that I reached the front of a sect and fainted, and later they saved me," You Meng said.

"So, you learned many things in the sect, including speaking and cultivation?" Su Changfeng had basically already guessed about the subsequent plot. That sect was probably the opportunity that brought You Meng a new life.

"That’s right. In the sect, I finally recognized an entirely new world, learned to speak and communicate, learned that I was human and not the child of an Exotic Beast. I finally knew that I had been abandoned in the Sourceless Forest," said You Meng, her eyes flashing with an irrepressible anger as she spoke the last sentence. From this, one could see how much this incident had hurt her.

Su Changfeng, who already had children, could also understand such a feeling. He couldn’t imagine what kind of parents would abandon their child in the Sourceless Forest. It was completely like wanting to kill her.

"And then?" Su Changfeng continued to ask, really curious about such a radically different life trajectory.

You Meng had already made it very clear. Back then, she treated the Fate Fruit as fruit to eat. Imagining someone like her, once she learned how to cultivate, her power was estimated to soar at a speed unimaginable to ordinary people.

One must know that when Su Changfeng was in Tuo Shi, he terrified a bunch of experts, so You Meng was probably similar.

"After staying in the sect for a year, I finally got into cultivation. It was from that time on, my life completely changed. In just one night, I directly became a Fifth Rank Expert," You Meng said.

Became a Fifth Rank Expert in one night?

Su Changfeng was taken aback. Such speed probably frightened the sect people as well, as such a thing really exceeded the understanding of normal people.

"Did the people in the sect get scared at that time, and you became a figure of renown?" Su Changfeng asked.

You Meng shook her head and said, "At that time, they were indeed shocked, although I didn’t understand what was happening. But I could clearly feel that every time they saw me, their eyes were full of fear, such eyes that I was very familiar with."

"Every time Yan Feng hunted prey for me, the prey had such an expression in their eyes, and then they would resist with all their might, and Yan Feng would get injured."

Yan Feng was presumably the Exotic Beast that raised You Meng. As for the name Yan Feng, it was probably later named by You Meng for it.

But hearing this, Su Changfeng had a faint, uneasy premonition in his heart.

From You Meng’s words, one could imagine that every time Yan Feng hunted, the scene would surely be very bloody and terrifying, and Yan Feng’s injuries would lead You Meng to develop a subconscious self-protective instinct.

Thus, facing those familiar eyes, she would probably choose to act like Yan Feng and directly kill the other party.

"And then, what did you do to them?" Su Changfeng quietly looked at her.

"I killed everyone in the sect, because only then would I not be afraid in my heart," You Meng replied casually.

Su Changfeng silently sighed in his heart. Although he had anticipated this long before, hearing these words directly from You Meng’s mouth still felt somewhat shocking.

"But you were just a fifth-rank expert, how could you have killed everyone in the sect? Could it be that the sect’s strength was so poor that there were no strong martial artists at all?" Su Changfeng asked with a puzzled expression.

"During the killing process, my strength also improved rapidly, so after I killed everyone, I was already an Eighth Rank expert," You Meng explained.
