At night, after Moyuan held Seventeenth in his arms and fell asleep, another primordial spirit fragment returned to him. This time, however, the memories brought back were different from those of the past half-year.
Over the past six months, the primordial spirit fragments that had successively returned to Moyuan mostly carried memories of his childhood—bearing witness to how he had toiled step by step through arduous spell practice to become a powerful being. With the tender love of the Mother Goddess and the indifference of Father God, Moyuan had always been puzzled as to why his father's expression was always so filled with sorrow whenever he looked at him, only to hurry away without daring to spare him a second glance.
It was not until the moment Father God returned to the chaos and entrusted the Golden Lotus to him that Moyuan learned he still had an unborn younger brother. Consumed by guilt that he would not live to see his youngest son born and unable to personally guide him to greatness, Father God had left half of his lifetime's cultivation to help him enter the world. Upon learning this, Moyuan felt no jealousy toward his brother for effortlessly receiving half of their father's cultivation; instead, he solemnly promised the father he revered that he would protect his brother and ensure his safe birth into the world.
