When Emperor Xi and the empress heard Xi Yu's indifferent words, the hearts of the two peak experts who had reached the Primordial realm shivered. Undisguised sorrow filled their faces.
Emperor Xi, the vicious person who had stirred up a storm of blood in the Xi dynasty, personally ending the lives of more than half of the Primordial realm experts in the empire, the cold-blooded emperor who had even killed his own brother, showed indescribable bitterness on his face right now.
His hand remained in the same position as he supported Xi Yu, but it seemed to have frozen in the air. What his beloved daughter had said was like a needle, piercing Emperor Xi's heart deeply.
Tears flickered in Emperor Xi's eyes. They seemed to flow uncontrollably from the eyes of this cold-blooded emperor who was renowned in the Xi dynasty. His stalwart body trembled gently as he stared at Xi Yu in pain. He opened his mouth slightly as if he wanted to explain something, but when he saw the blood on his daughter, he said nothing in the end.
"Child, I'm your mother. I'm your mother. This is your father. This is your father …" The empress burst into tears. She rushed over and hugged Xi Yu tightly without any regard for anything else. She hugged her so tightly that Xi Yu was unable to break free at all. It was as if her daughter would vanish from her side if she let go.
At that moment, she was no longer the great empress of the Xi dynasty, nor was she a peak expert who had reached the Primordial realm. She was just a mother with a fragile heart.
People from various places had already gathered around the Tianyuan family. The Primordial realm experts from the Heavenly Moon Empire had arrived as well. They stood with the divine king and communicated with him through messages, asking about the situation here.
However, with so many people gathered in one place, the scene was strangely quiet. Everyone stood there silently as they watched this scene. Their hearts were not calm at all.
The ninth prince, who had lost half of his face from the empress' slap, did not dare to make a sound. He looked at the sobbing empress of the Xi Empire as she hugged Xi Yu, as well as the Xi Emperor who stood beside her in pain. He grumbled inside.
Never would he have thought that an Overgod he came across casually after coming to the Tianyuan family to investigate the culprit behind the Flower of Ways was actually the princess of the Xi dynasty in the northern region. Moreover, the princess had almost died to his hands.
At this moment, the ninth prince was filled with deep regret. At the same time, he felt extremely wronged. If he had known earlier that Xi Yu was the only precious daughter of the current emperor of the Xi dynasty, he would not have dared to touch a single hair on her even if he was a hundred times bolder.
Although the Blood Sun Empire and the Xi dynasty were both rulers of a region, the current emperor of the Blood Sun Empire, who was the ninth prince's father, had many women under him. He was only one of the many children of the emperor of the Blood Sun Empire.
If the interests of the empire really were threatened, his status as a prince could be removed at any time.
However, Xi Yu was the only daughter of the Xi dynasty's emperor. Moreover, from the feelings that Emperor Xi and the empress had shown, no one doubted that they were willing to give up everything for their daughter.
Xi Yu saw that she couldn't break free from the empress' embrace no matter what, so she gave up on the empress and allowed the empress to continue hugging her. However, she found it hard to accept the fact that someone had suddenly claimed to be her biological parents. She instinctively resisted the idea.
"No, that's not it. The two of you are not my parents. I have no parents at all. I only have a foster father." Xi Yu gently shook her head. Her tone was very soft. However, tears were flowing from her eyes.
The empress looked at Xi Yu gently as she wiped away the blood on Xi Yu's face with her right hand. The blood had already dyed the empress' hands red. She said with a trembling voice, "Silly child, don't say such foolish things. We had no other choice when we abandoned you back then. I know you hate us, and I know you can't forgive us. However, since I've found you now, I will use the rest of my life to make it up to you properly."
Emperor Xi walked over as well. He sighed gently, "Yu 'er, you've suffered all these years. Just like what your mother said, the reason why I left you outside was to protect you. As for the specific reason, I will explain it to you later. Now, tell me, who among the people around here has bullied you? I will make the decision for you. "
The expressions of the ninth prince and everyone else changed when they heard Emperor Xi's words. At that moment, even though they were Divine King level experts, they could not help but tremble inside.
The ninth prince secretly panicked as well. He had already sent a message back, but why had his father still not arrived?
He had no doubt that Emperor Xi would kill him without any hesitation if the Blood Sun Empire still did not send anyone. He would not consider his identity at all.
After all, Emperor Xi was renowned for his viciousness and mercilessness.
This time, Xi Yu finally broke free from the empress' embrace. As soon as she thought about what the Tianyuan family had been through, she immediately shivered. She no longer cared about whether the people before her were her parents. She quickly glanced around.
"Nubis!" Suddenly, Xi Yu cried out and rushed over to Nubis' side.
Nubis lay on the ground with his eyes wide open. His skull had shattered and his soul had been taken away.
Xi Yu's eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. They were filled with the flames of hatred and fury. She said painfully, "Y- you killed Nubis." Nubis was Jianchen's close friend. Xi Yu had no idea how sorrowful Jianchen would be when he heard about Nubis' death.
Hearing that, the Divine King who had taken away Nubis's soul immediately paled. He hurriedly said, "Don't worry, your highness. He's not dead. His soul is still here." The Divine King's attitude immediately took a 180-degree turn. Before he finished speaking, he hurriedly took out Nubis's soul. He looked uneasy as he carefully handed it to Xi Yu.
In fact, even his hands and body were trembling slightly at this moment. His heart was filled with fear and panic.
Nubis's soul was fine. Once it was free, he immediately returned to his body.
However, his body was heavily injured. As a result, he looked extremely weak right now.
"Yan 'er, Yan' er …" Suddenly, Mo Xingfeng's sorrowful voice rang out.
Only when she heard her foster father's sorrowful call did Xi Yu remember that Mo Yan had been standing in the crowd before. Even Deities struggled to endure the spatial compression. With Mo Yan's cultivation as the Holy Emperor …
Xi Yu immediately paled when she thought of that. She ran towards the back of the crowd as quickly as she could.
However, when she arrived, Mo Yan was nowhere to be found. All she saw was a pile of collapsed flesh and blood on the ground. Her clothes were scattered in the surroundings. Wasn't that Mo Yan's favourite attire?
Mo Xingfeng currently knelt before the pile of flesh. His face was filled with sorrow.
This sight struck Xi Yu's head like a bolt of lightning. She immediately became stunned. Her body shook violently, and she almost fell over. Her face had already become extremely pale.
Xi Yu sat on the ground, paralyzed. She stared blankly at the lump of flesh on the ground that was no longer recognizable. She was on the verge of collapsing as tears uncontrollably rolled down her face.
"Yan 'er … Yan' er …" Xi Yu murmured subconsciously. She could not help but think about the mischievous and lively girl of the past. She felt extremely sorrowful.
Her feelings for Mo Yan were so deep that no one else could understand them. As a matter of fact, it could even be said that Mo Yan was the closest person to her in the world. Her feelings for Mo Yan even surpassed her foster father, Mo Xingfeng.
