The northern part of Ji City used to be the most prosperous area of the entire city, because the biggest clan of Ji City — — Ximen clan lived here.
In the past, the population of the Ximen Clan occupied one-tenth of this city. Their strength and resources occupied one-fourth of this city. Their residence occupied a large area in the north of the city. His strength back then could be seen at a glance.
But now, this place had almost become the forbidden area of Ji City. The ruins stretched for dozens of miles. It was said that the fire burned for a few days and nights before it was extinguished. It was only after the heavy rain that the fire was extinguished.
It was said that the Ximen family was exterminated because they offended the Yin Yang Palace. If anyone dared to get involved with them, they would definitely be implicated.
As a result, gradually, no one would come here. The people nearby all moved away and this place gradually became the most desolate place in Ji City.
Broken wells and dilapidated walls, and weeds were everywhere.
It rarely rained in Ji City, but today it was drizzling. The raindrops hit people and soon wet their clothes and hair.
Sima Youyue and Ximen Feng stood in front of the ruins and did not move for a long time.
Wu Lingyu, Little Seven, and Shi Qian Zhi, who insisted on following them, were watching them from afar.
Shi Qian Zhi held the oil-paper umbrella and looked at the backs of the two people. He asked, "Are these two people frozen? Why haven't you moved for so long? "
Little Seven and Wu Lingyu ignored him.
Youyue and Ximen Feng didn't understand the pain in their hearts even if they told him, so why waste their breath?
Besides, they couldn't tell him about Youyue.
"Big sister, let's go in and take a look." Ximen Feng's voice was somewhat hoarse, as if it was blown away by the wind. "Look, our plaque isn't completely burned down. There's still a bit of it left."
Sima Youyue followed his gaze and saw that more than half of the signboard that read 'Ximen Residence' had been burned down by the fire. Only the word 'Xi' was left.
She walked over and picked up the plaque. She used her sleeve to wipe off the water droplets on it and said, "This plaque was personally written by Great Grandfather. He personally put it on. At that time, everyone praised his good handwriting … "
"Isn't that so? Great-grandpa is the most narcissistic." Ximen Feng recalled, "Great-grandfather left behind a lot of calligraphy treasures, but they were probably all destroyed in the fire."
"This fire, I will make it burn back!" Sima Youyue said hatefully, "The Zong Zheng Clan, the Yin Yang Palace, and everyone else who started the fire, I want them to do the same!"
"We will make them pay with their blood!" Ximen Feng clenched his fist.
The two of them walked into the ruins. All the houses had been burned down. The rockery and phosphor stones had been knocked to the ground. The decorations that could be taken away had been taken away, and the ones that could not be taken away had been smashed. All the courtyards were in a mess.
Sima Youyue stood in the ruins and closed her eyes. It was as if she could see the scene of the sea of fire in the past. She saw her tribesmen being killed because they were poisoned. She saw those people laughing maniacally as they destroyed everything.
She seemed to see her mother shouting at her, telling her to live well …
"Feng 'er, have you collected the corpses of father, mother, and the other clansmen?"
"Yes." Ximen Feng said, "It was Big Brother Qin."
"Qin Mo … owes him another favor." Sima Youyue said.
The space tunnel opened, and Qin Mo and an old man came out.
Sima Youyue did not expect him to come just as she mentioned him.
"Youyue, Feng 'er." He flew to the two of them.
"Why are you here?" Sima Youyue looked at him and asked.
"I have been keeping an eye on this place. When I received news that someone came, I came over to take a look." Qin Mo said, "I didn't expect you to come back."
"You have been keeping an eye on this place all these years?" Sima Youyue looked at him in surprise.
"Yes. I thought that things happened so suddenly that someone might have survived because they were not here. " Qin Mo said, "If they really miss the Ximen Clan, they would come back to take a look. That's why I sent someone to keep an eye on this place. If anyone came, I would be able to help your family. "
"Thank you, Mo." Sima Youyue looked at him gratefully.
"I was in seclusion when you got into trouble. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let you …" Qin Mo said, "This is all I can do for you now. Fortunately, some people did come back these years. I think you will be very happy to see them. "
"There are still people alive? Where are they? "
"There are. I followed their instructions and hid them in the mountains nearby. That place is under the Qin Clan's influence. The Yin Yang Palace can't find them. " Qin Mo was a little embarrassed, "I was too excited when I saw you last time and forgot about this. Otherwise, you would have known about them earlier."
"It's okay. It's the same if you know now." Sima Youyue said.
If she knew about it earlier, she might not have gone to see them. She was … afraid …
Ximen Feng knew what she was thinking just by looking at her expression. He reached out and held her shoulder, saying, "Don't worry. They won't blame you."
"I …" Sima Youyue looked at him. Her eyes were still filled with fear.
"If they know that you siblings are still alive, they will be overjoyed." Qin Mo said, "Moreover, the bones of your clan members are all buried there …"
She could not escape from the last point.
"Then let's go see them. Since it's my fault, even if they want to blame me, I will take it all. "Sima Youyue said.
"Sister, you …"
Ximen Feng looked at Sima Youyue helplessly. That incident was not her fault at all, but she kept blaming herself. This made his heart ache.
"Let's go. We will pay our respects to our parents." Sima Youyue said.
They left the ruins. Little Seven and the rest walked over.
"Youyue." Wu Lingyu called out Youyue's name, but his gaze was on Qin Mo.
Why was this guy here again?!
"Your Highness Holy Son." Qin Mo nodded at him.
"I didn't expect Young Master Qin to be here too." Wu Lingyu smiled. His tone and expression were the same as before.
"Yue Yue, are you okay?" Little Seven saw Sima Youyue's red eyes and knew that she must have cried just now.
"I'm fine." Sima Youyue smiled at her, then looked at Shi Qian Zhi and said, "There is a Memory Restaurant here. You can stay there for a few days. I have some things to settle. Once I'm done, I will look for you. If you are willing to go and develop the antidote now, that would be even better. "
You want me to go and work now? What a black-hearted guy!
Shi Qian Zhi looked at her and took back his words. He was a kind person. Seeing that she was in a bad mood, he did not want to argue with her.
"If you don't come back to find me, I will feel better." With that, he held his umbrella and walked away gracefully.
Sima Youyue looked at him and thought of a word that was very suitable for him – show-off!
"Yue Yue, where are we going?" Little Seven asked.
"We are going to look for my family. We are going to … pay respects to my parents."
