With a loud bang, smoke and dust billowed everywhere. Yun Yang was completely engulfed in the dust.
Using his hands, feet, mystical Qi, he lifted up everything in the ruins aimlessly to examine them.
He found pieces of flesh and blood, as well as torn pieces of clothing …
It was not easy to find these things in the aftermath of such a violent explosion.
In spite of this, Yun Yang refused to stop, continuing to search for his movements. Fortunately, after a while, his mind slowly regained some of its consciousness.
He had been to Cirrus House many times. He could find the location and orientation of each house, each piece of wood, and each facility with his eyes closed.
Following the idea in his mind, he quickly locked onto the original location of Cirrus House's door.
Then, he retreated and stood there quietly for a while with his eyes closed.
Then, he strode into the room.
With a swoosh, the gravel around the door was cleared away by him. He walked forward confidently, looking around as if he had come to the grand hall of Cirrus House. When he first entered, he instinctively scanned his surroundings to see if there was anything out of the ordinary.
After a momentary pause, he walked further in.
Following Yun Yang's movement, gravel was continuously cleared away along the way. Dust filled the air, obscuring his vision. However, even such a harsh environment did not hinder Yun Yang's movement at all.
"This is where we drank last night. However, Yin and Yang have been separated, but it's no longer the same …"
The ache in Yun Yang's heart intensified.
Yesterday, Yun Zuiyue and Qing Shanxue were still sitting here, drinking with him with smiles on their faces but today …
He shook his head and cleared away the rubbish in front of him once again. With a glimmer of hope, he walked further in.
The location of a private room, the location of a piano hall, this was … a bedroom, this was …
He searched from room to room.
Finally, at the place where the kitchen should be, he saw a dark brown object.
"Blood?"
Yun Yang's eyes flashed with an insuppressible murderous intent.
He searched like a madman but found nothing.
Finally, when Yun Yang had found the original location of the underground storehouse, he stood rooted to the spot after carefully cleaning up and inspecting all the debris and rubbish that littered the place.
This was where Yun Yang found the most bloodstains. This was the place where the bloodstains were the most concentrated in the entire Cirrus House!
As far as the eye could see, there were pieces of flesh and blood everywhere, practically covering the ground.
None of the pieces of flesh and bones were larger than the size of a finger.
In addition, there were countless pieces of clothing, pieces of white clothing.
However, at this moment, the bloodstained pieces of white clothes were even more ghastly to look at!
Sniffing it carefully, there was still a faint fragrance of cosmetics lingering on the debris; it was similar to the smell on Yun Zuiyue and Qing Shanxue in Yun Yang's memory.
Yun Yang also found many long, silky strands of hair in the ruins, mixed in with the rubble and trash, messy and messy.
In a corner, there was still half a foundation left. There was a patch of scarlet blood stains, as well as a messy hair that had half a skull attached to it.
Yun Yang felt like he had been struck by lightning.
That tiny sliver of hope in his heart was completely shattered!
His body swayed as if he would fall at any moment.
A hand supported him from behind as Fang Mofei purposely lowered his voice, "Young master, be careful."
It was as if Yun Yang had not heard him.
Although it was close at hand, Yun Yang could clearly feel that Fang Mofei's voice seemed to come from the clouds beyond the heavens. It was ethereal and illusory; it seemed to be real at the same time, illusory at the same time.
He turned to look at his surroundings in a daze and suddenly coughed, blood trickling down the corner of his mouth.
Yun Zuiyue's gentle voice echoed in his mind.
"Young brother, you've worked hard."
"Young brother, eat more."
"Young brother, try this."
That gentle gaze seemed to be moving before his eyes.
Before they parted, that concerned gaze and that gentle voice said, "Young brother, you have to take good care of yourself in the future …"
Her voice and smile were still before his eyes, but …
Yun Yang felt waves of pain in his heart.
At this moment, a glimmer of light appeared in the ruins.
Yun Yang rushed over impatiently and threw himself onto the ground, digging with both hands to dig out the light.
It was like he was holding his last hope in his hands. It was a piece of jade!
Although it was only a piece of jade, it was still warm and bright. Yun Yang could not help but think of a pair of hands.
Yun Zuiyue's hands.
A pair of bracelets adorned her fair wrists.
It was emerald green.
This light was a piece of broken jade. The outer edge was round and curved.
This was obviously a fragment of the jade bracelet.
Yun Yang stared at it in a daze. Suddenly, he saw stars, his heart felt like it was being clenched tightly. For a moment, he was dizzy and lost his clarity of mind.
With a cry, Yun Yang spat out a mouthful of blood and fell backward.
"Young master!"
Fang Mofei cried out in shock and caught Yun Yang's falling body in his arms.
…
When Yun Yang woke up again, he had already returned to the Residence of Yun.
He stared at the roof in a daze, his eyes glazed over, ignoring everything that was in front of him.
In his mind, there were images rotating back and forth. Yun Zuiyue and Qing Shanxue's faces and voices flashed before his eyes, one after the other.
"Young brother …"
"Brother …"
"Can't I call you sister-in-law? … "
"Young brother, you have to take care …"
Yun Yang closed his eyes slowly, tears spilling out silently.
Fifth brother's lover, this pitiful woman, he had not protected her well after all!
Such a peerless beauty, a beauty that could topple a nation, had perished in front of his eyes, turning into ashes!
Yun Yang thought of the meal from last night, of Yun Zuiyue's words, of Yun Zuiyue's strange expressions yesterday … Could it be that she had already sensed something?
Every word from last night sounded like a normal, everyday conversation, but upon careful consideration, each word was filled with a deeper meaning. Each word was filled with the taste of parting.
Not only was it a temporary separation at this moment, it was more like they would never see each other again in this lifetime!
He gritted his teeth but the throbbing pain in his heart could not be contained.
"If I had taken Sister Yue away last night without a care in the world, none of this would have happened today!"
Thinking of this, the regret in Yun Yang's heart was almost boiling.
"I'm so stupid!"
"Such an obvious abnormality! Hmm? "
"The dishes that were served last night are a huge point of suspicion." Yun Yang had a sliver of hope in his heart, "Maybe Sister Yue is not dead yet …"
However, thinking of the hair in the cellar, the scattered flesh and blood, the tattered white clothes, the shattered jade bangle, the faintly familiar fragrance …
All of these had shattered Yun Yang's fantasy mercilessly time and time again!
"All of you deserve to die!"
Yun Yang suddenly sprung up, his eyes bloodshot. After spitting out another mouthful of blood, he roared and turned into a gust of wind, vanishing from the Residence of Yun!
"Young master!" Fang Mofei and Lao Mei were shocked to see this and quickly chased after him out of the door. However, there was no trace of the wind outside!
Yun Yang, who had fallen into an unprecedented state of rage, was running at top speed. There was only a piercingly cold murderous intent in his heart!
He only wanted to kill!
There had never been a time like now when he wanted to kill someone!
His heart was filled with rage and sorrow, he could no longer care about anything else!
The so-called scruples, considerations, deliberations, all of these were no longer in his eyes, no longer in his heart!
Fifth brother, I've let you down!
I didn't protect sister-in-law well!
I've let you down!
Yun Yang felt like the blood in his body was about to explode!
He had almost lost his ability to think.
There was only a strong desire for revenge!
A gust of wind blew into the palace in the dark night before dawn.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …
...
In the palace.
The Minister of Imperial Household, Jiang Zhong, was bent over, carefully inspecting the work of his subordinates in the palace. He was meticulous and his attitude was proper.
He was like a dutiful old man, doing everything to the best of his ability within the scope of his authority. It was the same every day.
Because of this, His Majesty had always been at ease with him.
In the crook of his arm, a white horsetail whisk rested lightly on it; it was clean and tidy, without a speck of dust.
His footsteps were slow, and his feet were dragging on the ground, making a scratching sound. It was as if he was too old to lift his feet. However, wherever the scratching sound reached, the eunuchs and guards couldn't help but puff out their chests and put on a dutiful expression.
Jiang Zhong, an old man in Yutang's palace.
The Minister of Imperial Household.
There was no doubt that his authority in the palace was immense!
His position in the Imperial Household could be said to be extraordinary!
In Yutang's palace, His Majesty was the monarch of the nation while the empress was the ruler of the nine palaces. However, there were still people who dared to defy their orders and disregard them. However, no one dared to disregard the orders of the Minister of Imperial Household, Jiang Zhong, during the execution of the order, let alone neglect it!
Throughout the years, countless palace servants and eunuchs had died under his cruel punishment. Someone once said that the number of wrinkles on Minister Jiang's face was equivalent to the number of people who had died in his hands.
Looking at Jiang Zhong's face, the wrinkles on his face seemed to be uncountable. Therefore, the number of people who had died in his hands was also uncountable!
"The sun is about to rise, it's a new day …" Jiang Zhong murmured. He turned around and walked unsteadily towards his room with his back hunched.
The two little eunuchs followed behind him respectfully. They did not dare to overstep his authority, nor did they dare to follow him.
