Xie Junjiao smiled and patted his head, "My great-nephew understands me best!"
Xie Feng smiled wryly. He never expected that he, in his thirties, would still be treated like a child and have his head patted!
The main problem is that the two people in front of me are of an incredibly high generation...
"Alright, Little Feng, you go back to the Jade Pivot Sect first. There are some things I need to discuss with your uncle and your great-aunt," Mu Bingxing.
"Very well, this disciple will take his leave now."
Xie Feng nodded.
He turned and went back to the Jade Pivot Sect.
"My great-nephew is so handsome! He's dashing and a charming young man. I wonder if he's engaged?" Xie Junjiao exclaimed, admiring Xie Feng's retreating figure.
"Little sister, you said you didn't want to be that kind of foolish and outdated elder, so why are you urging me to get married now?" Xie Yuan teased.
"I didn't pressure you to get married. I just said it behind your back, not to your face. Third Brother, you can't make false accusations!"
"Okay, I was wrong."
Xie Yuan immediately admitted his mistake. Over the years, he had figured out his little sister's temper. As long as he quickly admitted his mistake, she wouldn't bother to argue anymore.
Xie Junjiao indeed said nothing more.
Mu Bingxing laughed and said, "He already has someone he likes. The girl's name is Sushang. She's very bright and dignified. She's currently cultivating in the Azure Snow Realm. Come find me in the Ninth Universe another day, and I'll show you around!"
Xie Yuan shook his head. "Going there rashly would be too presumptuous. Let's leave it to fate."
Xie Junjiao nodded. "Third Brother, that's what's so great about you—you don't bother or offend anyone! When can Second Brother learn from you? If he did, I wouldn't dislike him so much! I don't want to go back to the Land of Chaos at all, unless Second Brother straightens his heart!"
"Stop flattering me," Xie Yuan shook his head, then looked at Mu Bingxing, "Let's go."
The Lower Realm.
The Land of Eternal Night.
Xie Yuan, Xie Junjiao, and Mu Bingxing strolled among them.
This place is vast and boundless; no matter where you look, all you see is pitch black.
This desolate land, without sun or moon, has remained unchanged for eternity.
Xie Junjiao looked up, glanced around, and said casually, "After being in bright light for so long, my old eyes are finding it hard to get used to this pitch-black darkness... Sigh... I really am getting old..."
She sighed and shook her head, lamenting the passing of her youth...
Xie Yuan laughed and said, "My little sister's eyes are always bright and beautiful; she's not old and her eyesight is failing. If we're talking about old eyes, it should be me who's getting old first."
Xie Junjiao pouted. "In that case, Second Brother must be the oldest! He's such a shrewd strategist, and he uses his eyes so much every day, he's probably already far too presbyopic!"
( Xie Tu:...)
Xie Yuan glanced at Mu Bingxing and said in a low voice, "Alright, let's not talk about him anymore."
He knew that Mu Bingxing and Xie Tu had a bad relationship!
Mentioning my second brother at this time is bad luck!
Upon hearing Xie Junjiao say that everything was pitch black, Mu Bingxing his sleeve, and instantly, a raging white flame ignited within a radius of a thousand miles.
The flames illuminated the space.
The three continued walking forward.
They reached the top of a sand dune. Mu Bingxing stood on the edge of the dune, gazing at the sunken valley, and sighed softly:
"It was right here that Xuanyuan and Yueheng perished, and that's where I found Little Feng."
Xie Junjiao was deeply shaken upon hearing this.
She slowly walked forward, half-squatting down, placing her palms on the ground, her eyes closed, as if sensing the joys and sorrows left behind here in the past...
Xie Yuan's gaze flickered slightly. "After that battle, Xuanyuan and the others disappeared. I thought they had gone into hiding. I never imagined they would perish so quickly... I regret it so much. If I hadn't left him then, if I had stayed by his side, he definitely wouldn't have died..."
"Uncle Xie, what happened back then is a matter of fate, and no one can truly explain it. Why blame yourself? When I first arrived here, the couple was already dead. Only Little Feng, seemingly just born, was still crying intermittently. The baby's cries, in this eternal silence, were so piercing, so heart-wrenching..."
"I always felt that their deaths were suspicious, so for the past thirty-five years, I have never given up on finding out the truth of what happened back then, until I discovered some clues, went to the Tenth Universe, and found Xie Tu!"
"However, that's far from enough. Among the causes of death of Xuanyuan and his companion that I've gathered, the most crucial link is still missing! This mystery has been troubling me to this day!"
Mu Bingxing frowned deeply, utterly baffled as to where that crucial link was missing!
Xie Yuan asked, "Why are you looking for Xie Tu?"
Mu Bingxing said coldly, "I discovered that his behavior during that war was very strange, and there were many bizarre aspects to it! It was these actions that made me suspicious of him. As it turns out, I was right!"
"What did he do?" Xie Junjiao asked.
"This is the question that has always puzzled me: what exactly did he do to cause the deaths of Xuanyuan and his companion? I don't know the specifics of what he did, but I know he is definitely the culprit behind the deaths of Xie Feng's parents!"
Mu Bingxing a solemn vow!
Xie Yuan said, "Back then, during the battle against the Desolate Army, too many coincidences occurred on the battlefield. Perhaps it was precisely because of those coincidences that the tragedy of Xuanyuan and his men occurred. For example... my younger sister and I were sent away and couldn't fight alongside Xuanyuan!"
Mu Bingxing said in a deep voice, "Perhaps it's not a coincidence, but rather something deliberate!"
Xie Yuan and Xie Junjiao widened their eyes in surprise!
They fell silent.
Because we cannot rule out this possibility!
"There's one more thing. Brother Yunhao was also involved in that great battle. Xie Han tried to kill him, but my disciple rescued him. He's currently in Dark Locust Heaven. However, he suffered severe injuries and is still receiving intensive care. We've invited wave after wave of renowned doctors, but to no avail..."
Mu Bingxing shook his head sadly.
If Xie Yunhao could recall the past, then some things buried for decades might very well come to light again!
After all, he had been by Xie Xuanyuan's side longer than Xie Yuan and the other two, and knew more!
"I've heard about Little Yunhao's situation too. Why would this guy, who's always been so good, think of stealing the family head's secret techniques? Is he going through a rebellious phase? That can't be right. He's over a thousand years old. Doesn't he have any sense of right and wrong? This kid has always been quite honest..."
Xie Junjiao and shook her head.
Only a super-elder Xie Junjiao would call a man with children and over a thousand years old "child"!
Xie Yuan raised his head, gazing at the Unseen Eternal Night night, and thought for a moment, "Speaking of a divine physician who could save Yunhao... I know one person, whose medical skills are unparalleled, known as the Medical Emperor."
Mu Bingxing's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Who is this person?"
