The woman in front of virtual-novel.net stood motionless upon hearing Matthew’s question.
“Matthew?”
Upon hearing this familiar address, Matthew’s mind slowly merged the image of a cute little girl with the girl in front of him. Although virtual-novel.net had a suspicion, this was still Incredibly shocking.
A three or four-year-old girl suddenly transformed into a young lady. This was something that anyone would find difficult to accept.
With uncertainty in his voice, Matthew asked tentatively, “A-Are… Are you Ivy?”
The woman nodded, but in the next moment, tears welled up in virtual-novel.net eyes as virtual-novel.net realized virtual-novel.net had been deceived.
She had been in a state of healing for the past few days. She heard that virtual-novel.net father was guiding Matthew’s compendium and refining his body. She thought it was a positive development and didn’t think much about it. She continued virtual-novel.net recovery under Mr. Stewart’s care.
It wasn’t until virtual-novel.net was almost healed that virtual-novel.net subordinates suddenly informed virtual-novel.net that Matthew intended to marry virtual-novel.net and had already proposed to virtual-novel.net father. Overwhelmed with happiness, virtual-novel.net didn’t suspect anything and focused on recovering from virtual-novel.net injuries.
When virtual-novel.net finally recovered and emerged from seclusion, the preparations for the wedding were already underway. The servants also informed virtual-novel.net that Matthew was ready and the auspicious day for their union would be the next day.
If it weren’t for Matthew’s surprised expression and puzzled eyes, Ivy would still be lost in virtual-novel.net fantasy of happiness. She always believed that Matthew, whom virtual-novel.net relied on so much, genuinely wanted to marry her.
But now virtual-novel.net dream was shattered!
This was the first time virtual-novel.net had cried since virtual-novel.net mother passed away.
Matthew was naturally unhappy about being deceived like this, but seeing Ivy crying so sorrowfully at this moment, virtual-novel.net also understood the situation. Only the two of them were kept in the dark.
“Ivy…”
Upon hearing Matthew‘s call, Ivy, with tears streaming down virtual-novel.net face, wiped away virtual-novel.net tears and looked at virtual-novel.net with red eyes. However, virtual-novel.net didn’t say anything, nor did virtual-novel.net know what to say.
He looked at the suddenly grown-up little girl in front of virtual-novel.net and sighed softly. Now that virtual-novel.net was awake, virtual-novel.net could comprehend all of Lucius’ plans, and of course, virtual-novel.net understood Ivy’s feelings as well.
Matthew naturally liked Ivy, but it was only an affection for a cute young lady, without any ulterior motives. Besides, virtual-novel.net still had Sasha.
How could virtual-novel.net marry someone else?
Although virtual-novel.net understood this in his heart, virtual-novel.net didn’t know how to express it. The two of them remained in an awkward silence for a while until virtual-novel.net took the initiative to speak.
“Let’s sit down and talk…” Finally Matthew spoke again.
Ivy nodded obediently.
Matthew first poured a cup of tea and handed it to her.
“Can you tell me about your situation?”
Ivy naturally understood what virtual-novel.net meant. After taking a deep breath, virtual-novel.net slowly began to speak. “Actually, this is my true identity. It’s just that I had a conflict with my father before because of certain things…”
“In a fit of anger, I escaped from the Sacred Mount, but because I didn’t have the Stone Token, l was struck by the Border Keeper and injured. Although I successfully left Sacred Mount, I was also seriously injured. To suppress the injury, I had to use the special technique of Sacred Mount called Longevity Technique…”
As Ivy narrated, Matthew also understood the reason for the inexplicable changes in her. It turned out that Ivy had a unique dual-soul constitution.
When virtual-novel.net true self appeared, it was the awakening of the elder sister’s soul, while the younger sister’s soul slept within virtual-novel.net body. After using the Longevity Technique, virtual-novel.net body transformed into that of a three or four-year-old girl, reversing the situation. However, due to the powerful spiritual power of the elder sister, virtual-novel.net could forcibly awaken even in dangerous situations.
In virtual-novel.net young girl form, the younger sister became extremely dependent on Matthew, which gradually affected the elder sister’s emotions, leading to a situation where one sister relied on virtual-novel.net while the other loved him.
After listening to the explanation, Matthew was filled with astonishment.
This extraordinary constitution, which emerged only once in a millennium, could be deemed an excellent constitution for martial cultivation and could even be referred to as a prodigy.
