Yang Xuan took out a set of black clothes from his Storage Ring and changed into them. Then, he left the place where he had stayed for the past three years.
When he appeared in the sky outside, it was early in the morning.
The disciples of the Biyun Sect walked past him one by one. Two of them even flew past him but none of them could see Yang Xuan, who had already become invisible.
His appearance had undergone a great change and he had become a completely unfamiliar young man who looked to be around twenty-four or twenty-five years old.
This was the result of his transformation technique.
Three years had passed and the first thing he needed to figure out was what had happened to the Yang family.
After pondering for a moment, the completely invisible Yang Xuan flew towards Green Snow City.
The most likely party to make a move against the Yang family was the Imperial family of Green Snow City.
The special power that had suppressed his Divine Sense three years ago still existed but as his cultivation level increased, it had weakened considerably.
Now, his Divine Sense could cover an area of a hundred meters.
As soon as he entered the city, his expression turned cold. Then, a thick murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
He "saw" Little Que 'er, who was shackled. Her clothes were tattered and her body was covered in wounds.
When Yang Xuan appeared in the prison, the four prison guards who had been guarding the place had silently collapsed.
Little Que 'er, who was curled up in the corner, raised her head slightly and glanced at Yang Xuan. Then, a cold smile that did not match her age appeared on her face.
"This move again? Give up, I won't tell you the secret of Master's technique. "
Yang Xuan sighed. After not seeing her for three years, Little Que 'er, who was already ten years old, had changed a lot. The most obvious change was the maturity on her face that did not match her age and the thick hatred that could not be dispersed.
It was hard to believe that such a forced maturity and such a strong hatred could appear on the face of a ten-year-old child.
All of a sudden, Yang Xuan felt his heart ache.
With a single thought, the thick bars of the prison were thrown aside like ropes. Then, the shackles on Little Que 'er's hands and feet were all broken.
With a gentle wave of his hand, Yang Xuan pulled Little Que 'er into his grasp before the two of them instantly disappeared from where they were standing.
On a mountain peak more than ten kilometers away from Green Snow City, Yang Xuan gently put Little Que 'er down.
Even at this moment, Little Que'er's face was still filled with a cold smile. She did not say a word and only stared icily at Yang Xuan.
Yang Xuan observed the condition of her body. His heart felt as if it had been violently clawed by something, and he felt a stabbing pain.
Little Que 'er's meridians and dantian had been completely destroyed. The fire spiritual energy that had filled her body had also disappeared.
It was hard to imagine what kind of torture she had suffered.
"Little Que 'er, it's me!" Yang Xuan stretched out his hand slightly, filled with endless love and sorrow. At the same time, the muscles on his face twitched and he returned to his original appearance.
However, Xiao Que 'er's icy expression did not change at all. Instead, the corners of his lips curled into a mocking smile. "This trick is no longer new. Even though your voice and appearance are very similar, you still look very similar. Give up on that thought. If you have the guts, kill me right now. Otherwise, I will avenge you, Master. "
Yang Xuan felt as if something had violently clawed at his heart.
What kind of treatment had Xiao Que 'er been subjected to over the past three years to cause such a naive and innocent child to become so paranoid and guarded against others?
She was only a ten-year-old child.
With a slight movement of his finger, a small flaming bird appeared at the tip of Yang Xuan's finger. It flapped its wings and flew into the air before circling around the two of them.
Little Que 'er was stunned. She was completely stunned.
The heavens and earth fell silent in an instant. Even the mountain breeze, which had been blowing all this time, seemed to sense something and disappeared without a trace.
After a long, long time!
Little Que 'er's cracked lips finally let out a barely audible cry. "Master …"
Then, she fell straight back.
Yang Xuan hurriedly caught Little Que 'er and sent wood-based spiritual energy into her body.
After a long while, Little Que 'er slowly regained consciousness. She stared dazedly at Yang Xuan as if she could not believe what she had just seen. At the same time, she also seemed to be wondering if she was dreaming.
"Master, am I dreaming?" Little Que 'er stared dazedly at Yang Xuan as tears streamed down her cheeks.
"No, this is not a dream, Little Que 'er." Yang Xuan held Little Que' er in his arms as he gently replied.
Little Que 'er did not speak. She did not seem to have awoken from her dream and only stared fixedly at Yang Xuan with her large, no longer clear eyes. She did not even dare to blink as if she was afraid that her Master would disappear if she blinked.
Bean-sized teardrops continued to flow from Little Que 'er's eyes. After a long pause, Little Que' er opened her mouth and let out an extremely miserable cry.
"Master …"
Little Que 'er burst into tears. She did not suppress her voice at all nor did she try to hide her emotions. Her weeping was like a pear blossom bathed in the rain and her crying was earth-shattering.
Yang Xuan did not say anything. He only hugged Little Que 'er tightly and pulled her frail and trembling body into his arms. He held her tightly, very tightly.
Little Que 'er needed a heart-wrenching cry like this. She needed an unrestrained and undisguised heart-wrenching cry to release the emotions that she had suppressed in her heart for three years.
At the same time, Yang Xuan's heart was infinitely cold and filled with murderous intent.
After an indeterminate amount of time, Little Que 'er's cries slowly disappeared and turned into soft sobs. In the end, even her soft sobs could not be heard.
Little Que 'er had fallen asleep. She had fallen asleep peacefully in Yang Xuan's arms.
Yang Xuan did not move. He simply held Little Que 'er quietly and waited.
The sky had darkened and darkness enveloped the land. Little Que 'er woke up.
"Master, you're not dead?" She held back her tears and finally asked the question that she should have asked at the first possible moment.
"I'm not dead!" Yang Xuan replied with a smile on his face.
"But everyone says that you're dead." Little Que 'er stroked Yang Xuan's arm. At this moment, she felt as if she had returned to being the spoiled Little Que' er who had clung onto her Master's legs.
Yang Xuan did not say anything. He only stared quietly at Little Que 'er. After a long pause, he asked, "Little Que' er, how's the Yang family?"
Little Que 'er was shocked. After a long pause, her tears began to flow uncontrollably again. She then sobbed, "Father is dead. Many people are dead …"
Crack!
An almost undetectable sound rang out. A large boulder that had been standing on top of the mountain suddenly turned into powder. It was blown away by the wind and disappeared without a trace.
Yang Xuan forcefully suppressed the murderous intent in his heart and slowly asked, "Who else?"
Little Que 'er sobbed, "Many people in the Yang family are dead. Two of the elders are dead as well. The Yang family head is not dead but he's injured."
Yang Xuan had finally paid a heavy price for his naivety. The Yang family had suffered because of his naivety.
Yang Xuan looked into the distance towards Qingxue Country.
After a long pause, he asked softly, "Where's Grandmother?"
"Grandmother is not dead but she had fallen ill before I was captured. I don't know how she's doing now."
Yang Xuan was silent for a moment before he asked, "Do you know who did it?"
"It was someone called Dai Qi." Hatred appeared on Little Que 'er's face as she continued, "He brought his men to the Yang family and killed many of our people."
"Dai Qi?!" Yang Xuan savored the name.
"I only found out after I was captured that he was the Great General of this country!" Little Que 'er continued.
"Qingxue Country!" Yang Xuan enunciated each word clearly. His tone was so cold that even the air was about to freeze.
