第104章 "Legacy of Betrayal"

**Chapter 104: The Unraveling of the Past**

Qin Wentian's anger was palpable as he glared at Chu Ling'er. "You're really going to make me choose between you and the ancient's legacy?" he repeated, his voice dripping with venom.

Chu Ling'er's expression remained calm, but her eyes betrayed a hint of fear. "Qin Wentian, think about it. The ancient's legacy is the key to your future. Can't you see that?"

Qin Wentian's gaze turned cold. "You're not even worthy of mentioning the ancient's name. You're just a pawn in this game, and I'm not going to let you manipulate me."

With that, Qin Wentian turned around and walked away, leaving Chu Ling'er standing alone in the darkness.

As he disappeared into the shadows, Chu Ling'er's eyes narrowed. She knew she had to think of a new plan, one that would make Qin Wentian see things from her perspective.

Unbeknownst to Qin Wentian, Chu Ling'er had been hiding a secret. A secret that could change the course of their fates forever.

Meanwhile, Qin Wentian stumbled upon a mysterious scroll hidden deep within the ancient's ruins. The scroll was old and worn, but the words written on it seemed to shimmer with an otherworldly energy.

As he unrolled the scroll, Qin Wentian's eyes widened in shock. The words were a prophecy, one that spoke of an ancient being who had been imprisoned for eternity.

But there was more. The prophecy also spoke of a chosen one, a being with the power to release the ancient being from its prison.

Qin Wentian's heart raced as he realized the truth. He was the chosen one. He was the one who had the power to release the ancient being.

But what did this mean? And what would the consequences be if he released the ancient being?

As Qin Wentian pondered these questions, he heard a faint whispering in his ear. It was the ancient being, calling out to him.

Qin Wentian's eyes snapped back to reality. He knew he had to make a choice. Would he follow the ancient's legacy, or would he release the ancient being?

The choice was his, but the consequences would be dire.

The chapter ends with Qin Wentian standing at the crossroads, torn between two paths. What will he choose? Will he follow the ancient's legacy or release the ancient being? The answer will be revealed in the next chapter.
