Su Yu's eyes were filled with sorrow.
It was the grave of Xia Jingyu's father.
Many years ago, her father had passed away and was reduced to dust.
Life is short, life is fragile, nothing more.
If Xia Jingyu knew, she would be equally sad.
"Old friend, I have come to see you again." The Duke of Xianyu raised a cup of wine and poured it in front of the grave.
He waved his hand. "Come and give Uncle Xia a toast."
Su Yu felt a tinge of sorrow. He poured a cup of wine in front of the grave and said, "Uncle Xia, please protect Jingyu in heaven."
He bowed deeply to show his respect to Xia Linxuan.
But when he looked down, he suddenly noticed that there was a special grass growing in front of the grave.
The rest of the grass had withered and turned yellow. Only this grass was green and lush, as if it had grown in spring.
He looked at it carefully, his eyes narrowing. "This is..."
He could feel the chaotic energy of a descendant of the Holy Mountain Emperor in the grass.
Why would there be chaotic energy here?
A pale color appeared in Su Yu's eyes as his Soul Transparent Eyes appeared.
In the end, Su Yu could not help but be shocked when he saw it.
In Xia Linxuan's grave, there were not human remains, but... a stone man!
"Yu-er, what's wrong?" The Duke of Xianyu sensed that Su Yu's expression was strange.
Su Yu hid his shock and suppressed the waves of emotions in his heart. "Nothing! Father-in-law, may I ask when he left? "
The Duke of Xianyu's eyes were filled with sorrow. He counted with his fingers. "It has been decades."
Decades ago, Xia Jingyu had already left the eight-star civilization and arrived at the nine-star civilization.
"Did my father personally bury him?" Su Yu asked again.
The Duke of Xianyu nodded his old head. "Yes, the descendants of the Xia family were declining, and he was the only one left in this world. No one was there to bury him, so I had to personally take care of his funeral."
Su Yu's heart was in turmoil as he listened.
Why was Xia Jingyu's father a descendant of the Holy Mountain Emperor?
Even if Xia Jingyu was Mirror-Flower Emperor's vessel, there was no need to arrange for a descendant of the Holy Mountain Emperor to remain in this world.
"Right." The Duke of Xianyu suddenly thought of something, and said, "You are whispering to me. I am old and muddled, to have forgotten one thing."
Trembling, he took out a small box from his sleeve and said, "This is what your Uncle Xia asked me to give you before he died. It's a pity that you didn't come and it's been delayed until now."
Something left behind before he died?
Su Yu was suspicious!
How could Xia Linxuan confirm that Su Yu was still alive decades ago?
"Open it and take a look," the Duke of Xianyu said.
Su Yu received the box and opened it. He discovered that it contained a letter made of leather.
The Duke of Xianyu said, "I do not understand why my old friend left you an empty piece of vellum. But before he died, he repeatedly told me to hand it to you."
Su Yu looked at the vellum. With the Duke of Xianyu's mortal body, the vellum was indeed empty.
However, Su Yu was different.
He had the body of a Sacred Mountain Son of Heaven, and his body was filled with the power of Primal Chaos.
Hence, he could tell at a glance that the vellum was filled with a strong chaotic energy. He gathered a shred of chaotic energy on his fingertip and gently touched the vellum.
The chaotic energy on the vellum immediately condensed into words that normal people could not see.
"Meditation Scripture?" Su Yu could not help but be surprised, "What is this?"
He read it in detail, but did not feel that the Meditation Scripture was anything special.
On the surface, it seemed to be a very ordinary scripture.
Moreover, it was very awkward to read, as if it was lacking something.
"Is this what Xia Linxuan wanted to give me before he died?" Su Yu was suspicious.
Xia Linxuan did not hesitate to condense the chaotic energy into a will before he died, but there were no other words, only vague scriptures.
How strange!
"Yu-er, did you see anything?" The Duke of Xianyu asked.
Su Yu muttered to himself, "Did Uncle Xia say anything else before he died?"
The Duke of Xianyu thought for a long time, "He said to take good care of Jingyu. I will leave her to you."
These were very ordinary words, nothing special.
Su Yu's heart was filled with disappointment and shame.
He was disappointed that Xia Linxuan did not leave any clues behind.
He was ashamed that he did not take good care of Xia Jingyu.
"I understand," Su Yu sighed, "I will do my best to take care of Jingyu."
He did not dare to speak of Xia Jingyu's current situation, as he was afraid that the Duke of Xianyu, who did not have much time left to live, would be worried and die.
The Duke of Xianyu smiled, "I believe that my old friend would be very happy to know that you have taken care of Jingyu all these years."
Huh?
Where did this come from?
Su Yu's heart skipped a beat, "Father-in-law, have you seen Jingyu?"
The Duke of Xianyu's old face revealed a kind smile, "All these years, Jingyu has been coming often to keep me company. Sometimes, I almost see her as Xianer, as my daughter."
Su Yu's heart shook.
Xia Jingyu had not been by his side for a hundred years, how could she have had the chance to see the Duke of Xianyu?
Could there be some misunderstanding?
Suddenly, the figure of a person appeared in Su Yu's mind, and he asked in disbelief, "Father-in-law, the Jingyu you speak of, is she dressed in black, and very cold?"
The only person around him that the Duke of Xianyu would mistake for Xia Jingyu was the sinful daughter.
The Duke of Xianyu was stunned, "It is true that she is dressed in black, but she is not cold. When she is by my side, she often smiles. But, she does not talk much. "
After a pause, the Duke of Xianyu said, "Why, is she not Xia Jingyu? I thought it was just that she didn't like to talk much. "
Su Yu could not hide it, and could only say, "She is someone else, very similar to Xia Jingyu."
He was very suspicious. Why would the sinful daughter pretend to be Xia Jingyu to keep his father-in-law company?
Moreover, from the Duke of Xianyu's description, it was not the first time that the sinful daughter had been meeting her father-in-law behind his back for many years.
What was the sinful daughter trying to do?
Why had she hidden it from him all these years?
If he had not come here on a whim, he would still be in the dark.
Thinking back to the fact that he had given the sinful daughter the primordial energy that he had painstakingly obtained, but she did not cherish it, and did not know how to use it, Su Yu became even more suspicious.
It looked like he needed to communicate with the sinful daughter.
What was her motive for following Su Yu all these years?
"There is such a similar person in this world?" The Duke of Xianyu was shocked, "But, she did not deny that she was Jingyu!"
Su Yu's eyes darkened. What was the sinful daughter's motive for pretending to be Xia Jingyu?
"Moreover, she fused a ball into my body to help me improve my constitution." The Duke of Xianyu was confused, "At that time, I thought I was going to die, but the ball allowed me to live for another year or two, until now."
Huh?
Su Yu frowned, "A ball?"
The Duke of Xianyu said, "It looks like a water droplet, and it is filled with very pure energy."
Hearing this, Su Yu's pupils shrank.
