The content of Lixia's story is as old-fashioned as she said, and it is a typical story of family identity inheritance.

"The title of 'yin' was passed down from generation to generation by my family. The previous generation of silver was my father."

Lixia showed a look of nostalgia on her face, telling the little things about her life with her father when she was a child to Ryan.

From her lines, Ryan could hear her attachment and dependence on her father.

Because the content of Yin's inheritance is too large, Lixia has been receiving education from her father that is neither gentle nor harsh since she was a child.

"I have never seen my mother since I have a memory. Maybe my father deliberately alienated her in order not to let her influence her education. I don't even know what my mother's name is and whether she is still alive."

"Although training life is very hard, I have never complained even at all. Every time my father returns from a mission, he will tell me his experience, and I also try to make myself the silver that my father expects."

"I gradually learned everything that Yin needs to inherit from my father. As long as my father gave me his identity, I will immediately pass on it as the next generation of Yin."

"I originally thought that this time was still far away from me. My father was in his prime and was one of the best talents among all generations, until..."

Lixia's original plain and warm story suddenly turned sharply. "It was not until two years ago that my father was diagnosed with acute incurable diseases, and our originally peaceful life was completely broken."

"Even a master of martial arts like my father, I cannot escape the invasion of the disease. Although the doctor said that it can prolong life through modern surgery,... the strong father is unwilling to live the kind of life that lies on the hospital bed for the rest of his life."

The expression on Lixia's face became very sad, and Ryan gradually slowed down his breathing. He instinctively felt that the key point of Lixia's inner struggle was coming.

"My father refused the operation to prolong his life. He issued the first murder order to me in a practical sense, and the target...is himself."

Ryan suddenly held his breath, and this order was so cruel to a 5-year-old daughter.

Lixia raised her head and looked at the crescent moon in the night sky blankly, "I can't do it... I have never disobeyed my father, but I only showed great hesitation in this matter."

“I felt fear about this.”

Lixia pursed her lips and looked at her trembling hands and continued, "Will the 'silver' raised by her father tried his best to alienate her mother? Will the 'silver' raised by her mother be just a useless waste? Will the dying father be extremely disappointed by this?"

Under Ryan's heartbroken gaze, Lixia smiled bitterly and said the ending of the previous generation Silver. "In the end, my father did not blame me, but just smiled bitterly before his death and left the last sentence..."

"'This is also you...it's up to you to decide your silver."

After Lixia finished speaking, she let out a long breath, and the expression on her face seemed a little relaxed, but she could still see the melancholy that could not be dissipated between her eyebrows.

"This is my story, it's boring and cliché, right?"

Lixia smiled self-deprecatingly, "After my father's death, I inherited the identity of Yin with the network he left behind. Over the past two years, I have been traveling around to carry out various tasks assigned by my employer, and my hands are gradually covered with blood."

"I came to Closebell because I signed a long-term agreement with Black Moon. This is the first time I left the Republic of Calvad. When I first came, I had to learn how to get along with the people around me. It was really hard."

Lixia had a sad and beautiful smile on her face. She sorted out under the blowing of the night wind and asked Ryan the same question again, "Now... do you still think a woman like me is beautiful?"

Ryan opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. He mustered up the courage to carry Lixia in front of him into his arms. Because the movement was too sudden, Lixia didn't react for a while.

"Silly girl... you're too stubborn."

When Ryan reached out to touch Lixia's head, the Yin, who had been trained since childhood, reacted. Her pretty face suddenly turned red, but when she felt Ryan's warm embrace and the gentle aura of doting, Lixia was a little reluctant to break away.

‘The last time a man hugged me like this… It seems that he was sick and taken care of by his father when he was a child?’

After experiencing the initial impulse, Ryan obviously realized that his behavior was out of line...

However, seeing that Lixia did not break free, he hugged her and said softly, "I may not be qualified to say this when I escaped from the responsibility of the family... But you put too much pressure on yourself. If you continue like this for a long time, you will collapse sooner or later."

Ryan smelled the fresh scent that naturally emanated from Lixia, felt the warm and fragrant nephrite in her arms, looked at the crescent moon in the sky and thought for a while, and finally sighed and made a decision.

"Since you have told your story without reservation, I'll let you listen to an equally clichéd story."

On this grass where people were rarely visited at night, the two of them snuggled together looked at the same bright moon in the sky and exchanged their secrets.

"I was born into a prominent noble family of the Ereponian Empire, among the four famous families of the empire, the Duke of Kane."

When Lisha looked up in surprise, Ryan said with a wry smile, "Reinhardt de Kane, this is my real name. Ryan is just a pseudonym I used when I was walking outside."

"that……"

Lixia, who was huddled in Ryan's arms, asked hesitantly, "Is it okay to tell me such an important identity? Are you not afraid that I will tell Heiyue?"

"don’t worry."

Ryan gently touched Lixia's soft black head again. "Although my identity was not revealed on the surface, it was not too deliberate to hide it, and it was actually not a big secret."

"Recently, my father began to interfere in my life. With Bai Lanlong and Li Cao's skills, it was only a matter of time before I found out my true identity, and...

Ryan patted Lixia's head and said jokingly, "You have explained your origin so clearly, so it's hard for me to continue hiding it."

Seeing Lisha's desire to speak but stop, Ryan interrupted her and continued, "Anyway, just listen to it as a boring story, which will make me vent my worries in my heart."

"For some reason, my father has had a strong sense of responsibility for the family's mercy wishes since he was a child...ah, by the way."

Ryan scratched his face embarrassedly, "Because the involvement is too big, I don't even know some parts myself. I won't tell you the specific content of the family's responsibilities. Anyway, that's not a good thing worth inheriting to me."

Lixia smiled gently and comforted, "This doesn't matter. If one day you think it's appropriate to tell me."

"Forehead……"

Ryan, who was comforted by the other side, looked a little unnatural. He turned his face and said, "Cough... Anyway, that's a shocking plan that is enough to change the entire Erebonia pattern."

Ryan's face gradually became gloomy. "Once that plan moves, not only the empire, but also all surrounding countries will be affected directly or indirectly."

"What will it bring to the calmer Hereponia now...I can't predict, the only thing that can be sure of is..."
