Yue Yang, Yue Bing and the others went to Miss Feng's room to see Fourth Uncle.
Fourth Uncle was still in a deep sleep, lying quietly on a rattan chair. Beside him were two letters, written for Fourth Mother and Yue Yang. This Fourth Uncle's appearance was younger than Yue Yang had imagined. He was handsome, with a moustache similar to Lu Xiaofeng's. He wore a white headscarf and a green robe. Half of his body was covered by a blanket. If it wasn't for his weak breathing, he would have thought that he was taking an afternoon nap.
His skin was slightly pale from overexertion of vitality.
Faintly, there was a deathly aura that a healthy person didn't have. Yue Yang stretched out his hand to sense it and found that it was more serious than he had imagined.
The Venomous Core and the Bone Corroding Dry Fern might not be able to stop his condition from worsening. It seemed like there was only one way to save Fourth Uncle, and that was to kill the person who was raising the Venomous Core and dig out the Myriad Poison Venomous Core from his body …
Miss Feng was a young married woman wearing plain clothes. Her appearance was not bad, but she looked a little haggard. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying.
When she saw Yue Bing, she gently hugged her and choked with tears.
She didn't tell her the truth, but comforted her softly, saying that she would definitely cure Fourth Uncle, so that Yue Bing could rest assured. Princess Sissi and Yue Yu could hear the sadness in Miss Feng's voice. Yue Bing was still young and hoped that her father would recover. She didn't doubt Miss Feng's words and only nodded. Miss Feng hugged her and wiped her tears a few times. She then signaled Yue Yang to come over. What made Yue Yang feel strange was that she didn't mention Fourth Uncle again. Instead, she asked about Yue Yang's daily life, hinting that Yue Yang had to take responsibility for the family in the future and fight for the Fourth Branch.
Yue Yang didn't need to check her pulse to feel that this Miss Feng had also been poisoned by the Hundred Rigid Worm Venom.
It was just that she already knew about it and was on guard, so the poison was mild.
"It's okay. Come visit your Fourth Uncle again when you have time. Just now, he was still talking about you. Now that he's tired, I won't wake him up." Miss Feng handed the letter to Yue Yang. It seemed like she was handing over her will. Yue Yang took the letter and looked at her bulging belly. Miss Feng waved her hand slightly: "The baby is safe, don't worry!"
Hearing her words, Yue Yang felt that after giving birth, this young lady from the Feng Clan might die of love.
This was probably the reason why she allowed the Hundred Rigid Worm Poison to enter her body …
Now, Miss Feng could be cleared of suspicion. She shouldn't be the one who set up a trap to harm Fourth Uncle. However, she was also plotted against.
After Yue Yang left the room, he took the opportunity when the three girls were still talking to Miss Feng to read the letter that Fourth Uncle had left for him. There were two types of words in the letter. It was written by Fourth Uncle Yue Ling. He said that he was very pleased to know that Yue Yang had worked hard. He also refused to let Yue Yang investigate this matter. He said, "You have to be the master of the family and take care of your family. Take care of your Fourth Mother and your two sisters. Take care of them as your priority. Don't be reckless and take revenge. Otherwise, you will fall into the enemy's trap and cause more trouble. The enemy is extremely powerful. Even with the power of Da Xia Kingdom, it would be difficult to fight against them. The last thing you can do is to jump out of the enemy's trap and save your family's lives. He also told Yue Yang two secrets. One was that Yue Qiu had left a 'gift' for his son somewhere in the Fifth Floor of Tong Tian Tower. He said that it would be useful when his son entered the Sixth Floor of Tong Tian Tower. The pitiful guy's mysterious mother said that in the God's Ruins, there was a 'special passage' that she could not enter. She hoped that her son could go in and investigate the truth …
The last part of the letter was written by Miss Feng.
Miss Feng said that there was not much time left. She was afraid that the Hundred Rigid Worm Poison would spread, so she would bring Fourth Uncle to a tomb to hide and wait for it to end.
As for the baby in her womb, if it was a boy, he would be sent back to the Yue Clan to continue the bloodline of the Fourth House.
If it was a girl, she would be raised by the Feng Clan.
She hoped that Yue Yang would take care of his younger brother or sister for the sake of his Fourth Uncle. Her words were sincere, making Yue Yang feel that Miss Feng was indeed a good mother. At least when she decided to die for love, she still thought of her children …
"I have never doubted that you are a good brother. Since you could bring your Fourth Mother and sister back to the Yue Clan Castle, I know your character … In the future, I hope that you can take care of them. Brothers should support each other, sisters should depend on each other!" Miss Feng ended the letter with this sentence. She also had the intention of entrusting her future baby to Yue Yang.
It seemed that she had already decided to die.
Yue Yang did not speak for a long time. Was there really no way to save the situation?
Could it be that he had to watch Fourth Uncle and Miss Feng die quietly like this? Was there any other way to think of?
There was still time. If he could not use his full strength now, then couldn't he think of a way to recover his Innate strength after three months? Yue Yang was a little unconvinced in his heart. The enemy's poisonous trick had stumped him? There must be a way. This was a slow poison, not a strong poison that would kill him immediately. There were still a few months left … As long as he could find the person who planted the poison, there would still be a glimmer of hope!
Even if it was an Innate Ranker, hadn't he killed Tu Cheng and Kuang Zhan, the two Innate Rankers before?
At the very least, he had to put in some effort and not give up easily.
Outside the hall, the Feng Clan Master patted Yue Yang's shoulder. He did not say anything, but personally sent Yue Yang, Princess Sissi, Yue Yu and Yue Bing off.
When he returned to the Yue Clan Castle, he discovered that the Yue Clan Village at the foot of the mountain was in a mess, as if a hurricane had passed through.
After asking, he found out that the people from the Xie Clan had already been here. They aggressively attacked the Clan Warriors who blocked their way and smashed many shops, claiming that they wanted the Yue Clan to hand over Yue Yu and their adulterer. However, the Xie Clan still had some misgivings and did not attack the Yue Clan Castle.
The Yue Clan Warriors were very gloomy, because the one who caused trouble was not Yue Tian, Yue Yan, Yue Bao or the abnormal Third Young Master Yue Yang. It was the most obedient and gentle Yue Yu.
They definitely did not believe that Yue Yu would have an adulterer, because the Second Miss had always been with Princess Sissi.
Furthermore, everyone had seen Yue Yu and Princess Sissi returning together. There were only Seventh Miss Yue Bing and the abnormal Third Young Master Yue Yang accompanying them. How could there be an adulterer? They firmly opposed the Xie Clan's vile act of tarnishing the Second Miss' reputation. Even an idiot would know that the Xie Clan and the Yue Clan were enemies. They must have purposely found an excuse to cause trouble.
The Xie Clan's leader, the Level Seven [Overlord] Xie Tu, did not take action, but the Clan Warriors from both sides had a huge battle.
The Yue Clan suffered a small loss as the Yue Clan Village was smashed.
When Jun Wu You and Elder Yue Hai heard the news and rushed over, the Xie Clan had already left.
"What actually happened?" Elder Yue Hai found Yue Yang and asked about the Yue Clan Village being smashed.
"I don't know. I brought Second Sister and Bing Er to see Fourth Uncle. The Princess was also with us." Yue Yang expressed that he was a good boy who did not fight, so he did not know what had happened.
"Grandpa, it's my fault." Yue Yu was not like Yue Yang who would lie without blinking. She knelt down and told the whole story honestly.
Princess Sissi was afraid that she would be punished by Elder Yue Hai, so she repeated Xie Qian Qiu's words.
When Jun Wu You heard it, his expression changed.
He realized that the Xie Clan's provocation towards the Yue Clan was not simple. There must be a powerful force behind them. Even without the incident with Yue Yu, they would still find another excuse. Yue Yu's unexpected provocation was just a catalyst.
Elder Yue Hai looked at Yue Yang and suddenly asked with an inquiring tone, "Xiao-san, what do you think?"
Yue Yang was a typical violent person.
Others had already come to bully him, what else was there to say? Of course he would beat him up until his own mother could not recognize him.
Yue Yang coughed slightly, "Everyone knows that I am a pacifist. I am kind-hearted and do at least one good deed a month. For example, helping an old lady cross the road. I am also very tolerant. Normally, when others hit my left cheek, I would extend my right cheek to let them hit me …"
Everyone was speechless. If you were a pacifist, then there would be no warmongers in the Soaring Dragon Continent.
Princess Sissi glared at Yue Yang.
She nodded lightly at Elder Yue Hai, "If the Xie Clan wants to fight, we will fight."
Jun Wu You sweated profusely when he heard this. It's fine if you help them secretly, but you can't even say 'we' now. You are not even a part of the Yue Clan yet.
"Your Majesty, why don't you act as a witness for both our clans?" Elder Yue Hai was unwilling to drag Jun Wu You into this. If the Xie Clan dared to provoke the Yue Clan, it was obvious that they were not afraid of Jun Wu You's support. This matter could not involve Da Xia's royal family. Otherwise, the entire Soaring Dragon Continent's situation would be in chaos. He realized that the Yue Clan had reached the edge of a cliff. If they were not careful, the whole Yue Clan would fall into a bottomless abyss.
"Brother Hai, you don't have to say anymore about this matter. We are bound together for good or bad." Jun Wu You smiled faintly.
The Head Butler asked for an audience with a flustered expression on his face.
Looks like the Xie Clan had made a new move.
Elder Yue Hai waved his hand to signal the Head Butler not to say anything. He turned to look at Yue Yang, "Xiao-san, bring your sister away first. This has nothing to do with you juniors."
Yue Yang nodded, "Of course. You are the Clan Master, of course I will listen to you."
He stood up and walked out. Yue Yu and Yue Bing looked at him. Something's not right. Did this brat change his personality? Why was he so obedient?
Only Princess Sissi chased after him and shouted, "Hey, don't act recklessly!" Before she could finish her sentence, Yue Yang, who had walked out of the study room, had already disappeared. Elder Yue Hai and Jun Wu You looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Although they knew that this brat would not listen, they did not expect him to have such a reaction …
At the foot of the mountain, more and more Xie Clan experts came with their warriors.
They had already passed the Yue Clan Village and were approaching the Yue Clan Castle on the mountain.
The Yue Clan's warriors had no choice but to retreat due to the enemy's strength. The two elders looked at Xie Tu, who was a Level 7 Intermediate [Overlord]. Although they were unwilling, they could only signal their warriors to retreat and wait for reinforcements.
A Level 7 [Overlord] was not something that the two of them could fight against.
Xie Tu did not make a move at all.
As a Level 7 [Overlord], just his aura alone was enough to completely overwhelm the other party's warriors.
Just as he was feeling pleased with himself, a shadow suddenly flew down from the mountain. Purple flames soared to the sky like a meteor, causing him to shiver.
The Yue Clan's experts had finally appeared … The purple flames twisted into the shape of a dragon in mid-air and rotated. Just as Xie Tu leaped up and was about to block the attack, the person suddenly disappeared. When he appeared again, he was already above the Xie Clan's warriors. The purple flame storm slashed down from above …
Blood splattered everywhere!
At least 20 of the Xie Clan's warriors were killed on the spot by the purple flame blade.
On the ground, other than the decapitated corpses, there was a long dividing line.
Yue Yang stood on this bloodstained dividing line. He held the Hui Jin Magic Blade in his hand and snorted coldly, "Anyone who crosses the line, no matter who it is, will be killed without mercy!"
