"Xiao Xian."
Bai Yumo called her in a low voice.
Yu Jingxian's body trembled and her facial expression changed abruptly. She could not believe that the person standing in front of her was her elder sister, Yumo. She changed her name to Bai Yumo after she married into the Bai Family in Bai Mo City.
"Elder sister … is it really you?"
Yu Jingxian said in a trembling voice. All of a sudden, all the grievances and sadness in her heart poured out and tears flowed down her cheeks.
"I haven't seen you for a hundred years. Xiao Xian is no longer the little girl I used to be."
Bai Yumo opened her arms and Yu Jingxian jumped into her elder sister's embrace. Bai Yumo could see that Yu Jingxian was extremely thin at this moment. Her eyes were filled with worry, anxiety, grievance, and pain.
The two sisters hugged each other and cried. Bai Yumo could not control her emotions.
"How is father now?"
Bai Yumo was extremely worried. She looked at her father who was lying on the sickbed. He was unconscious but there was still a trace of breath left.
"Father has been like this for more than a hundred years. I went to the Tian Qi Mountain Range with third and fifth brother and obtained the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart. Saint Doctor Wang Lingzhi said that as long as we have the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart, we can save father. Because my father needs to change his heart, to live on the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart, to prolong my father's life. Right now, my father is completely exhausted. "
Yu Jingxian said with a gloomy expression.
"Is the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart really useful?"
Bai Yumo asked.
"The Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart is produced by the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine. It only grows once every ten thousand years. Its vitality is extremely strong. I think it will work."
Yu Jingxian said.
"Is the procession outside the city to welcome Wang Lingzhi?"
Bai Yumo continued to ask.
"Yes."
"Then why hasn't he come to see father yet?"
Bai Yumo frowned.
"Big brother and second brother insisted on holding a feast for Wang Lingzhi. He said that he will only be able to see father tomorrow after he takes a bath."
"Disregarding their own father, these red tape and red tape have truly caused quite a lot of harm. These two fellows are truly becoming more and more useless. This is truly infuriating."
Bai Yumo gritted her teeth, but there was nothing she could do. After all, she was already married and could not be considered as a member of the Yu family. Now that her father was in a critical condition, the two of them were needed to maintain the order of the family. Although it was inappropriate, she could not say anything.
"Right now, Big Brother and Second Brother are completely different from before. Ever since Father fell ill, the only thing left in their eyes is fighting for power. They even hope … hope that Father will never recover from his illness. Only then can they control the family and become the head of the family."
Yu Jingxian's eyes were blurred with tears. She would only appear so weak in front of her sister. She could only say these words to her sister. If others heard it, they would say that she was a heretic and disrespectful person.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Bai Yumo was getting angrier. It seemed like the Yu Family was no longer as glorious as before. The harmony was just a facade.
"How would I dare to lie in front of you? Moreover, they are my brothers, why would I slander them? "
Bai Yumo could see the helplessness in Yu Jingxian's eyes. She would not have said this if it was not for the reason behind it.
"Since young, Third Brother has always been the steadiest. Where is he?"
"Third Brother was sent to the Dragon Gate Ridge not long ago. Something happened in the mine. Third Brother was sent to investigate this matter. It should be the elders' idea. They were afraid that he would have a dispute with Big Brother and Second Brother. Moreover, the elders are already Big Brother and Second Brother's subordinates. Third Brother does not have any subordinates and he does not care about it. Therefore, he was pushed aside unknowingly."
Although Yu Jingxian did not say it, she knew everything clearly.
"How dare they! Since I am back, I will not let the Yu Family be in such a mess. Moreover, father is not dead yet. "
Bai Yumo suddenly stood up. Her expression was cold and heroic. Ever since she married into the Bai Family, she had been a soldier for half of her life. She would not be affected by worldly affairs. Bai Yumo's unyielding character was honed on the battlefield. Blood and battles made her eyes filled with the majesty and dominance of a soldier.
"You stay here and look after father. I will go and see what these two unfilial sons have done to father."
Bai Yumo turned around and left with cold eyes.
The moonlight was like a shadow. The moonlight was like a phantom.
Jiang Chen stood in front of the courtyard. He could feel Yu Jingxian's sadness, anxiety and sadness. Jiang Chen could feel it. However, his heart was still sour. Even though she had betrayed him and left with the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart, he could not forget it. He could not pretend that nothing had happened.
It was a bit far-fetched to say that it was love. However, it was like a fishbone stuck in his throat. He could not say it out but he could not bear to make her even sadder. Every frown, every smile, every word and action of hers were in Jiang Chen's mind. He could not get rid of them. Perhaps this was an indescribable torturous fate. Love and hate.
The reason why Jiang Chen changed his appearance was because he did not want Yu Jingxian to see him again. If that was the case, it would only make things difficult for her and she would feel even more helpless and lonely.
Jiang Chen squinted his eyes. He wanted to use his divine soul to check. However, when his divine soul swept past Yu Jingxian's father, Yu Huagan, he was suddenly repelled by an extremely powerful soul power.
Jiang Chen took three steps back but his feet were as steady as a mountain. His expression was solemn.
"Such a terrifying soul power. This person must have been poisoned by the Soul Leaving Curse. I'm afraid that his soul power is almost depleted."
Jiang Chen thought. At this moment, Yu Jingxian walked out from the room. She was alarmed by the sound of Jiang Chen's retreat.
"Who are you?"
Yu Jingxian looked at Jiang Chen and asked. Her beautiful eyes flickered, but there was a different feeling.
"I came here with Miss Bai Yumo."
Jiang Chen looked at Yu Jingxian. At this moment, Jiang Chen did not hate Yu Jingxian. He did not blame her for leaving him. Because he finally knew why she risked her life to take away the Scarlet Cloud Ancient Vine Heart. It was to save his father.
Jiang Chen wanted to hate her, but he couldn't bring himself to do so. Her pain and struggle were all because of the entanglement in her heart. It wasn't that Jiang Chen didn't understand, it was just that he didn't want to talk about it. It was better to be someone who brushed shoulders with him. It made him feel more at ease.
Yu Jingxian did not choose to give in in the face of love. She loved the man whom she pushed into the abyss, but she could not help but save her father. There was no conflict between them, but she had been living in conflict and guilt.
"Your eyes look like a friend of mine."
