When was it... that my fate had changed?
Liu Yu's memory felt somewhat blurred.
I remember when I was very young, I was really quite ordinary, skinny and weak, poor at schooling, lazy with tasks. My father would chase after me, scolding and hitting, while my mother doted and protected me. If things had gone as expected, I would have turned into a spoiled youth who by middle age, had squandered the family savings and become destitute, right?
But tragedy struck swiftly. My capable businessman of a father suddenly died while abroad. His death was shrouded in secrecy among the locals, but I still managed to glean some information. I heard he had been killed by the Water Ghosts, his skin flayed from his body.
