Elder Ying was at that moment sitting leisurely in the courtyard, sipping his tea and admiring the flowers. When he suddenly saw Jun Wu Xie appear, he was slightly taken aback and his face then lit up with a smile.
"Kid, why do you have the leisure to come look for me today? Oh right, did you know that Elder Yue made a mistake and has been receiving the Palace Lord's disdain for the past few days? " Elder Ying said with a laugh. He had heard about what happened to Elder Yue and only knew that someone had caused trouble in the Hill City that Elder Yue was in charge of. Not only had the branch been destroyed, they had even lost quite a number of their disciples, which could be said to have been a huge slap to Elder Yue's face.
As long as Elder Yue was displeased, Elder Ying's heart would feel good.
"When did you receive the news of your son's death?" Jun Wu Xie looked at Elder Ying whose face was all smiles and suddenly asked a question that made Elder Ying unable to smile anymore.
The smile on Elder Ying's face froze in an instant. He had been leisurely and carefree over this period, but he had been seeking joy amidst sorrow. The misfortune his son's family had suffered had long become a pain in his heart and the hatred he felt towards Elder Yue and the Shadow Moon Palace had stemmed from that.
"About ten years ago. Why do you ask?" Elder Ying asked with a frown on his face.
"When you came to the Shadow Moon Palace, were Yue Yi and Yue Ye already in the Shadow Moon Palace?" Jun Wu Xie continued to ask.
Elder Ying felt that something was not right and he immediately sat up, trying hard to remember. After a moment, he said: "They were already here. At that time, Elder Yue had brought them here to see me. Yue Ye was still very young at that time and she was mostly carried by people. Yue Yi was already very sensible but he seemed to be a little afraid of me. When he saw me, he would lower his head and not dare to make a sound."
Because of his son's death and the disappearance of his daughter-in-law and grandson, Elder Ying had been tormented internally and he had not been in the mood to pay attention to the children in the Shadow Moon Palace.
"Why are you suddenly asking that?" Elder Ying could not help but feel that Jun Wu Xie's words held a deeper meaning and his heart involuntarily sped up a little.
"I went to Elder Yue's study and discovered a secret chamber in his study. Hidden in there were all the belongings of all the victims he had suffered over the years. And that half of the jade pendant in the Zhan Family was found from there. "Jun Wu Xie said.
Elder Ying's body shook suddenly, the despair and grief in his eyes almost collapsing.
From the moment he came to know that the jade pendant had been found from Elder Yue's place, his heart had already been highly uneasy. Knowing that his grandson and daughter-in-law could very possibly have fallen into the hands of Elder Yue, he did not want to think that things were that bad. He would rather believe that the Shadow Moon Palace had coincidentally picked up all of this, than to think that his grandson had been brought to the Shadow Moon Palace to be tortured to death under Elder Yue's hands.
All of this, for an old man over fifty years old like him, was a calamity that was close to annihilating him!
"What do you mean ….." Elder Ying's voice was trembling a little.
"I want a drop of your blood." Jun Wu Xie said.
Elder Ying stared at Jun Wu with his mouth agape. "What are you trying to do?"
Jun Wu Xie stared coldly at Elder Ying and said: "If you want to know whether your kin is still alive, you'd better do as I say."
Elder Ying's heart jumped, suddenly noticing the chill in Jun Wu's voice. But under that chill, he had definitely felt a sliver of hope!
He immediately stretched his hand out, and without hesitation, he used the dagger he carried with him to slit his finger.
Fresh blood gushed out from the wound and Jun Wu Xie took out an empty bowl and a bottle of water from her Cosmos Sack, and poured the water into the bowl.
"Drip a drop in." Jun Wu Xie said as she raised her eyes to look at Elder Ying.
