Autumn Moon City was a city in the central region that wasn't particularly large, but its status in the central region wasn't low. This was because there were two alchemy clans here, one in the south and one in the north. The two clans had produced many geniuses, and their relationship had been very good in the past. However, in recent years, their relationship had taken a turn for the worse, and there was a tendency for them to fight to the death.
The family in the south of the city was surnamed Beigong, while the family in the north of the city was surnamed Yin. In terms of strength, the Yin Clan was higher than the Beigong Clan because they had a secret technique that could raise the grade of pills.
When it came to pills of the same grade, the Yin Clan's effect was slightly better than the Beigong Clan's.
The current head of the Bei Gong Clan was called Bei Gong Xiong. He could be considered Bei Gong Tang's great grandfather, and her father, Bei Gong Ao's grandfather.
The Beigong Clan had always been very interested in the Yin Clan's secret technique, but the Yin Clan kept it a secret and never spread it out. Even if they watched them refine pills, they couldn't tell what was different.
Thus, for more than twenty years, they schemed to make Bei Gong Tang's mother, Yin Lan, fall in love with Bei Gong Ao. She disregarded her family's objections and married him. Within a few years, she gave birth to Bei Gong Tang and her younger brother, Bei Gong Hang.
But even so, Yin Lan didn't reveal the Yin Clan's secret technique.
Beigong Ao originally did not like Yin Lan, but he liked Gu Yun Er, the daughter of the Earth Palace's Palace Master. The two of them were in love with each other and had reached the point of marriage. However, because Yin Lan's status in the Yin Family wasn't low, he couldn't have other women before marrying her, so he never married Gu Yun Er.
After a few years, Beigong Ao's patience ran out. After an argument, he turned around and married Gu Xin 'er. At the end of the year, they had a daughter, Beigong Er.
The Earth Palace was the largest sect in Autumn Moon City, and Gu Yun Er was the daughter of the Palace Master. Naturally, her status in the Beigong Clan was different. In addition, Bei Gong E's talent in alchemy was not bad, so the Bei Gong Clan treated her like a treasure.
Gu Yun Er was originally very unhappy about Beigong Ao marrying Yin Lan, so she squeezed out her position as the main wife and even abused the three of them.
Towards this, the members of the Beigong Clan all turned a blind eye. Because they were unable to obtain the Yin Clan's secret technique, the difference in status between Yin Lan and Gu Yun Er was like the difference between heaven and earth.
On the other hand, Yin Lan did not receive the support of her family when she married into the Beigong family. Therefore, even if she was wronged by the Beigong family, she would not complain to the family.
Who would have thought that Gu Yun Er's mistreatment of them would escalate to house arrest? It was also to prevent them from notifying the Yin Family and causing trouble for the Beigong Family. This Yin Family was also a big clan. If they really caused trouble, it wouldn't be easy to settle it.
Afterwards, Bei Gong Tang escaped with the help of her uncle. Afterwards, she escaped to the Yi Lin Continent with the help of Meng Ji. Meng Ji also fell into a deep sleep.
Speaking of her own uncle, Bei Gong Tang's tone was the most gentle. He was the only one who treated her and her mother well. Meng Ji was secretly given to her by him. However, when she thought about how he had gotten injured in order to help her escape, she wondered how he was doing now.
In an inn in Autumn Moon City, everyone came out. After hearing Bei Gong Tang's story, everyone felt sorry for her.
"In the past, I lived in the backyard of the Beigong family. We were guarded day and night, so my knowledge of the outside world was limited to Beigong Ao and the others. At that time, I didn't even go to the front yard of the Beigong Family. Furthermore, because others were at least Spirit Overlords when they were born, and I was only a Spirit Knight, I was always treated like trash. "
"You were just born at a lower level than others, but your talent is really good. I dare to believe that you are definitely more powerful than that Bei Gong Er. "Fatty Qu said.
All this time, Bei Gong Tang didn't talk much about her past. Although they knew that she had escaped, they didn't know that she had lived such a miserable life.
"You've already left for more than ten years. We don't know what the situation is like here either. You should stay here. We'll go out and gather some information. We'll tell you when we come back. "Wei Zi Qi said.
"Bei Gong, have you thought of looking for the Yin Family?" Sima You Yue asked.
Bei Gong Tang shook her head, saying, "The Yin Family and the Bei Gong Family are in the same city. Even if the Bei Gong Family intentionally hid information about us, the Yin Family would be able to find out as long as they wanted to. However, they didn't. This means that they no longer treat us as family. At that time, Mother didn't ask the Yin Family for help, so I naturally wouldn't acknowledge them. "
"What if they were like the Lian Family back then, and the news was intercepted?" Sima You Le asked.
Bei Gong Tang was stunned. She had never thought of this possibility. In her mind, she hated the Yin Family. She had never thought of this possibility.
"Lian Hong's situation is different from mine. His father was chased out of the family, and he lived far away. However, the Yin Family and Bei Gong Family are in the same city. As long as they have the heart, how could this happen? "
Everyone thought about it. What she said made sense, so they didn't say anything else.
Sang Mu Yu stepped forward and hugged Bei Gong Tang, saying, "You're a good child. Your mother and younger brother are definitely alive, waiting for you to come back and save them."
"Aunty, I'll have to trouble you to stay here and accompany Bei Gong. We'll split up and gather some information about the Bei Gong Family." Sima You Yue said, "Little Tu, stay here and accompany Bei Gong."
"Okay, go ahead." Sang Mu Yu said.
Little Tu nodded seriously, saying, "Big Brother, don't worry. I will protect Big Sister Bei Gong."
"Okay, then let's go out." Sima You Yue said to everyone.
After leaving the inn, everyone split up and went to different places to inquire for information. Because the Beigong Family, the Yin Family, and the Earth Palace were the three leaders here, their affairs had always been talked about enthusiastically. It was not difficult to get information about them.
Of course, some information would be treated as forbidden areas. Everyone would keep such information a secret.
Yin Lan and Bei Gong Tang belonged to this category. Many people stopped talking when they heard Yin Lan and the others' names.
After going out for a round, everyone didn't get any substantial information.
Sima You Yue released a few hundred scarlet bees and let them disguise themselves as normal bees. They went to different places to gather information. Most of them went to the three big powers.
At night, Sima You Yue was talking to Bei Gong Tang. Suddenly, her body trembled. Her eyes flashed with disbelief. After a moment of silence, she looked at Bei Gong Tang sadly.
"Did something happen to my mother and the others?" Bei Gong Tang looked at Sima You Yue's expression and her heart sank.
Sima You Yue didn't know how to say it. It was as if she didn't even have the courage to speak at this moment.
"You Yue, just say it. I can take it." Although Bei Gong Tang said this, the hand holding the cup was trembling.
"Bei Gong, you … your uncle died after saving you that year. Your mother and brother … also died a few years ago."
Bei Gong Tang's face was ashen. She didn't even feel the tea in the cup that she had just poured into her wound.
Sima You Yue looked at Bei Gong Tang's expression and said anxiously, "Bei Gong, this is only the information that we got from the Yin Family. Maybe this is information that the Bei Gong Family deliberately released."
