Bi Yuntian crouched in front of Bi Yunhai's grave and gently touched the cold, hard gravestone. Large droplets of tears flowed from her eyes. She seemed to be in great pain. In her mind, she couldn't help but recall the events from more than twenty years ago. At that time, she and Bi Yunhai were the best of sisters. They played together happily every day and were practically inseparable. If there was something fun to do, they would play together. If there was something delicious to eat together, they would enjoy it together. They would never enjoy it alone.
"Sister Yun Hai, it's all my fault, it's all because of my incompetence. If I had known earlier that you had escaped, then you wouldn't have ended up like this. My sister Yun Hai, you've suffered too much these years, even after your death, even your tombstone is so simple. It's all because I didn't take good care of you." Said Bi Yuntian while sobbing, her heart was filled with grief.
"Mother, I'll be able to avenge you very soon. I'll definitely kill that thing that's worse than a beast with my own hands. Mother, rest in peace," Bi Lian sobbed as she knelt before the grave.
Jianchen felt his heart ache when he saw how pained the two of them were. He stood there silently. Ming Dong, You Yue, and Tie Ta all became extremely surprised. They had no idea what had happened at all. Why had Bi Lian's mother suddenly become Bi Yuntian's sister?
After a moment of hesitation, You Yue finally could not hold back anymore. She asked Jianchen softly, "Jianchen, what happened? What's going on? "
Jianchen gently sighed, "Yunlian's mother and my mother were the best of friends when they were young. Yunlian is no longer called Yunlian, but Bi Lian. At the same time, she's my sister."
Ming Dong and You Yue's jaws dropped when they heard that. Disbelief filled their faces.
"What? The young lady of the Yun family is actually your sister!" You Yue said in shock.
"This is unbelievable." Ming Dong also stared at Bi Lian, who was sobbing in front of the grave, in great surprise. His gaze was extremely complicated as well. He never would have thought that the young lady of the Yun family, who had clashed with them a few days ago, would actually be Jianchen's sister.
Jianchen looked at the crying Bi Yuntian with a heavy heart. After hesitating for a moment, he came to Bi Yuntian's side and gently squatted down. He comforted her, "Mother, don't be too sad. The dead can't be brought back to life. Moreover, Auntie Yun Hai has been dead for more than ten years."
Bi Yuntian wiped away her tears and choked with sobs, "Sister Yunhai, you've been alone here for over a decade. You must be very lonely. Don't worry, now that I've found you, I'll take you away no matter what. Come back to the Changyang clan with me. I'll accompany you every day in the future so you won't be lonely anymore." As she spoke, Bi Yuntian climbed to the back of the grave and began to dig at the simple grave with her hands. Large drops of tears fell from her eyes and landed on the grave, slowly wetting the hard, dry soil.
After more than ten years of wind and rain, the soil on the burial mound had become very hard under the scorching sun. Bi Yuntian used her tender fingers to dig a few times before her fingers were scratched by the hard soil, and bright red blood flowed out.
However, Bi Yuntian didn't seem to feel it at all. She couldn't feel the piercing pain from her injured fingers rubbing against the hard soil. She continued to use her hands to push away the grave, vowing to take her sister away from here.
Seeing this, Jianchen's heart ached. He quickly went forward to grab Bi Yuntian's hands and said in a pleading tone, "Mother, don't be like this. Quickly stop. Let me do this. You can stand aside and rest."
Bi Yuntian shook her head and cried, "No, I must save sister Bi Hai with my own hands. I must accompany sister Bi Hai and bring her back to Changyang Prefecture." Bi Yuntian dug even harder. Her slender, jade-like fingers were already stained with mud. Bright red blood continuously flowed out from her fingertips, dyeing the mud red.
"Mother, let me help you." Jianchen couldn't persuade her, so he could only go along with Bi Yuntian's wishes. He then started digging as well. He worked hard at the grave in front of him, trying to relieve Bi Yuntian's pain.
Bi Lian crawled over from the grave and joined the two's actions. The three of them used their own hands to dig as hard as they could. "Mother, your daughter is incompetent to let you live alone in this desolate place for more than ten years. However, mother will soon have a new home. Moreover, aunt will accompany you by your side. Mother will not be alone in the future."
"Let me do my part for auntie."
Seeing the actions of the three of them, You Yue, who was standing at the side, was moved as well. Tears of sorrow flowed down her cheeks. Then, she came to the grave and knelt down, using her white and tender fingers to dig at the soil.
Ming Dong looked at this scene with a complicated expression. He didn't say anything. He followed You Yue and silently knelt in front of the grave. He dug his hands deep into the soil and joined in the digging. In the end, even Tie Ta took the initiative to join in.
With everyone working together, they quickly dug open the grave. Then, they dug another two meters deep before they finally saw a completely black coffin.
"Mother!" Bi Lian's longing and pain completely erupted when she saw the coffin. She cried out in extreme grief. If it weren't for Jianchen stopping her in time, she probably would have jumped down and hugged the wooden coffin.
Jianchen's heart became even more pained when he saw the muddy wooden coffin. He sighed inside, and with a thought, he controlled the energy of the world to lift the wooden coffin from the ground. He carefully placed it on a flat surface.
Bi Yuntian arrived before the wooden coffin and used her bloodied hands to slowly wipe away the soil. She looked so careful, as if she was wiping away a supreme treasure.
"Sister Yun Hai, it's been over twenty years in the blink of an eye. Do you still remember me? I'm your big sister Yuntian, "Bi Yuntian murmured. "Sister Yun Hai, come home with me. I'll be by your side every day so you won't be lonely, okay?"
Bi Lian lay on the coffin and sobbed. She didn't care about the slippery soil on the coffin at all. The tears in her eyes seemed like they would never run out. They gushed out fiercely, and her beautiful eyes were red and swollen from crying.
"Mother, Bi Lian, let's hurry up and move auntie's coffin into the city. Auntie has spent over ten years alone in the wilderness. I'm sure she's tired of this place," Jianchen comforted.
This time, neither Bi Yuntian nor Yun Lian objected. They both agreed with Jianchen's suggestion. Afterwards, Jianchen personally carried Bi Yuntian's coffin on his shoulder and left with the others.
Jian Chen carried a coffin covered in mud as he walked towards Phoenix City. Along the way, he attracted the strange gazes of all the passersby. They stared at the group of people with strange gazes as they discussed amongst themselves.
"Do you think that person is crazy? Do you see that coffin? It's covered in mud. It must have just been dug out from the ground. Is he going to take it into the city? Doesn't he know that coffins are forbidden in all the cities? "
"They definitely don't know about this rule. Just watch, they'll definitely be stopped by the guards."
Many mercenaries and merchants pointed at Jianchen's group and laughed mockingly.
Jianchen walked at the front with the coffin on his shoulder. He walked straight towards Fengyang City and soon arrived at the city gate.
At this moment, a soldier walked over and blocked Jianchen's path. When he saw that Jianchen was carrying a coffin, he was certain that Jianchen was a pauper who couldn't even afford a carriage. Therefore, his attitude was not polite at all. He said arrogantly, "Stop. Our Fengyang City prohibits coffins from entering the city. If you want to enter the city …"
"Scram!" However, before he could finish speaking, he was stopped by Jianchen's shout. Then, Jianchen kicked the soldier's chest without hesitation, sending him flying through the air.
"Someone is causing trouble here. Hurry up and capture him!"
It was as if they had poked a hornet's nest. Even more soldiers ran over with weapons in hand. On the city walls, there was even a row of soldiers with crossbows aimed at Jianchen.
Jianchen was already in a bad mood today. Now that he was being harassed by these soldiers, the killing intent in his heart was aroused. Looking at the surrounding soldiers, his eyes instantly became cold. A strong killing intent spread out from his body, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet. The surrounding people even felt as if they had fallen into an ice cavern, chilling them from head to toe.
Now, only our city lord is an Earth Saint Master. However, the strength of those young people really is abnormal. They are clearly younger than me, but they are much stronger than me. One of them is even a Sixth Cycle Earth Saint Master. He is only a step away from becoming a Heaven Saint Master. It's unbelievable. I just don't know which peak clan they are from. "The guard's eyes were filled with envy.
At this moment, a strong killing intent came from outside, immediately bringing the general who was immersed in his memories back to reality.
Sensing the intensity of the murderous aura, the general of the city guards turned pale with fright. He immediately stood up from his chair and exclaimed, "What a strong murderous aura. Who is it?" Before he could finish speaking, the general of the city guards ran out in a panic.
