"Chi!"
Just at that moment, a figure appeared in front of Du Shaofu out of thin air. A dazzling light spread out.
The middle-aged man's claw was forced to move to the side at this moment. It brushed past the light circle and crushed a huge rock not far away. His expression changed drastically at the same time.
The light receded and a seemingly old woman appeared. She looked at the dozens of people in front of her and said, "What do you want?"
Numerous gazes looked at the old woman and their expressions changed. Then, they all became extremely respectful.
"Old Ming, this servant bullied Chao 'er and the others. He even killed a Tao Wu. He should be killed." The middle-aged man who had just attacked said respectfully to Old Ming.
"I brought him back, not a servant. If anything happens to him, you can't bear the responsibility. Go back." Old Ming said softly to the crowd.
"But Old Ming …"
An unusually beautiful woman felt heartache for her child who had been crying for his father and mother earlier. She seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Old Ming. He said, "I am the one who brought him back. In that case, I will be responsible for all of you. What do you think?"
"This …"
Hearing this, the beautiful woman's expression instantly changed.
"We don't dare. We will leave now."
The expressions of the people who came changed secretly. After looking at Du Shaofu in confusion, they hurriedly left. No one dared to offend Old Ming.
"Swoosh swoosh …"
The dozens of people came quickly and left quickly. After that, they disappeared.
Du Shaofu was still sitting on the rock and eating. He didn't even raise his head.
Old Ming looked at the mess around him. His gaze swept past the Tao Wu's corpse and the grill. In the end, it landed on Du Shaofu's body. His eyes couldn't help but ripple.
Old Ming couldn't help but be shocked. Compared to Miss Shaojing, this guy was too different.
They were twins born from the same mother. The younger sister was otherworldly, like a fairy in this world.
However, the older brother was ferocious and strong like a wild beast. On the first day he arrived, he dared to eat a Tao Wu and beat up a dozen youths in the clan. When had an outsider dared to be so bold in this place?
If news of someone coming here to barbecue a Tao Wu spread, no one in this world would believe that there was such a person.
"Do you want some?"
Du Shaofu finally raised his head and looked at Old Ming's gaze for a long time. He said, "Otherwise, I won't be able to eat if you keep staring at me like this."
"I don't eat the mortal world, and I don't eat meat."
Elder Ming looked at Du Shaofu and said, "Are you full? If you are, let me tell you about Miss Shaojing first."
Du Shaofu looked at Old Ming with his clear eyes. He nodded and said, "Has my younger sister been well these past few years? Has anyone bullied her here?"
Old Ming looked at Du Shaofu, and after a few breaths, he nodded and said, "Other than her natural illness, Miss Shaojing should be better off than you. The elders here dote on her very much."
"That's good, that's good."
A slight smile appeared on Du Shaofu's face when he heard this.
"Do you know that Miss Shaojing was born with a Sovereign Body?" Old Ming asked.
"I don't know much, but I do know that my younger sister is born with a Sovereign Body. It must be extremely powerful."
Du Shaofu said with a smile. From the images that his drunkard father had given him, he already knew that his younger sister was born with a Sovereign Body.
Old Ming sighed. He looked at Du Shaofu and said, "But the young miss was also born with a natural illness."
"You've never told me. Just what kind of illness is it?"
Du Shaofu looked at Old Ming. He was worried and uneasy. These people were extremely powerful. If they were unable to save his younger sister, it was obvious how serious her illness was.
"Miss Shaojing suffers from the 'Withering Heart Illness'." Old Ming said softly.
"Withering Heart Illness!"
Du Shaofu violently trembled when he heard this. A person was born from the brain of his parents. The essence of his body was connected like a ring, and white like silk. The father had three elements, the son had two kidneys, the son had two eyes, and the son had two external kidneys. The three elements were complete. The five viscera, six bowels, four limbs, and bones were gradually born.
Afterwards, the body possessed the energies of the five elements, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, to match the five viscera. The lungs were metal, the liver was wood, the kidneys were water, the heart was fire, and the temper was earth.
The most important part of the body was none other than the head and the five viscera.
The five viscera and the five elements of heaven and earth supported each other. The heart was the head of the five viscera. The Withering Heart Illness was the head of the five viscera. How serious was it?
"The Withering Heart Illness can be said to be irreversible. The clan had thought of changing Miss Shaojing's' heart ', but Miss Shaojing was born with a Sovereign Body. Whose' heart 'could fuse with a Sovereign Body?"
Old Ming sighed softly. He looked at Du Shaofu and sighed, "It's already a miracle that Miss Shaojing was able to hold on until now. The clan has spent a huge price to 'nurture' her heart, but even so, the situation is becoming more and more serious. It can't be delayed any longer."
"What do you need me to do?"
Du Shaofu asked Old Ming. They had probably already found a way to get him here.
Old Ming looked at Du Shaofu and did not say anything for a long time. He then looked at Du Shaofu and said, "Child, I'll take you to a place right now."
"You're taking me to see my mother and sister?"
Du Shaofu looked at Old Ming with anticipation and nervousness.
Old Ming's gaze was tranquil as he said, "Follow me. You'll know when you get there."
… …
A verdant valley, a small bridge over flowing water, an ancient aura fluctuated, exotic flowers and herbs bloomed, and there were even spiritual medicines everywhere.
White birds cried in the mountain forest, and spiritual beasts shuttled back and forth. All of them were treasures that could not be seen in the outside world. This was like a fairyland.
Du Shaofu followed Old Ming all the way to a valley.
There was a quiet and ancient courtyard in the deep valley.
Du Shaofu had many things to ask along the way, but Old Ming did not mention a single word and remained silent.
"Go in. That's Miss Shaojing's residence." Old Ming looked at the ancient courtyard before him and said to Du Shaofu.
"Sister's residence?"
Du Shaofu's eyes moved, and he immediately became slightly flustered in his heart. His feelings were very complicated, and it was as if his feet were tied to a 50,000-pound mountain, making it difficult for him to move.
Sister Shaojing is inside. Is mother inside? Could it be that I can finally see my mother and sister that I've been thinking about day and night …?
Du Shaofu still walked into the courtyard, step by step. His pace was neither fast nor slow, and his body was slightly trembling.
"Sigh … I've let this child down."
Old Ming looked at Du Shaofu, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw the clear eyes that were slightly moist, and he sighed helplessly.
Chi chi.
As Du Shaofu entered the courtyard, a dozen figures arrived from outside the valley. All of them restrained their auras, and then they landed behind Old Ming.
There was a total of eleven people, and the one at the front was the old guardian that Old Ming called Qing Yu.
But at this moment, the ten people behind Qing Yu were all middle-aged men in armor. Their armor was covered in runes, and all of them were high grade Dao Artifacts.
"Old Ming, leave the rest to us. You've already done enough for that brat. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have the qualifications to enter this place." Qing Yu said to Old Ming.
"Qing Yu, listen to me. He's here to save Miss Shaojing's life. If you dare to hurt him or make him suffer, don't blame me for taking advantage of my seniority. You should know what I'm capable of!"
Old Ming's gaze was tightly fixed on Qing Yu's body.
"Yes, I'm only here to watch over this brat. Before saving Shaojing, I want to prevent him from causing any trouble. There are still some people in the clan who have other thoughts, so I'm here to protect him."
Hearing this, Qing Yu immediately lowered his head, and did not dare to look directly at Old Ming.
"Sigh … I've sinned, I've sinned. No wonder the old patriarch said that it's difficult to sever my mortal heart, and that I'm ultimately unable to take that final step."
Old Ming muttered softly. After his voice sounded, he disappeared without a trace.
The courtyard was quiet and antique. Du Shaofu entered the courtyard. The decorations were simple, and there was a faint fragrance that was pleasant.
Du Shaofu turned his head. Old Ming did not follow behind him, and walked into one of the rooms.
This was a room that looked like a study. However, there were many Dao Artifacts, pills, and spiritual herbs placed here. There were energy fluctuations, and multicolored light was emitted.
There were many bookshelves on the walls. Du Shaofu saw many ancient books, and with a single glance, he knew that they were not young.
However, there were also many martial skill jade slips and beast bones placed on the bookshelves. None of them were ordinary items.
If this was not his sister's residence, Du Shaofu would have been unable to control his hands, and would have taken all of them away.
It was hard to imagine that someone would place beast bones, martial skills, and many pills and spiritual herbs in the study.
The corners of Du Shaofu's mouth slightly moved, and a slight smile appeared on his face.
Was this his sister's study? He did not know if she usually read or trained in this study. From the looks of it, his sister's personality was not the same as an ordinary girl's.
Within the study, Du Shaofu saw an ancient wooden desk. Many rice papers were neatly arranged on the desk, and there was a portrait on the desk.
The portrait was black and white, but when Du Shaofu's gaze landed on it, his heart immediately trembled fiercely, as if he had been struck by lightning.
The portrait was of a man with a resolute face. His slender eyebrows slanted to his temples, and his thick and long eyelashes made his originally rigid and powerful face appear much gentler.
