Translator: 549690339
This night was destined not to be calm.
A very strange caravan had arrived at Qingmang Town, and what made it strange was that among the vehicles, there was actually a black palanquin.
This mode of transportation, which should have been long extinct, had reappeared on the streets of Qingmang Town.
At this moment, the caravan came to a stop.
A few stout men approached the palanquin, bowing as they greeted whoever was inside.
The curtain of the palanquin was lifted, and a man with deathly pale face stepped out, his eyes seeming to flicker with ghostly flames.
The man looked up at Mount Qingmang, looming in the darkness, and said in a cold voice, “Yue Xiaoqian and Niu Yiwan are dead!”
His subordinates exchanged glances, fear evident in their eyes.
A cold smile appeared on the man’s lips, “It seems there are traces of other sects as well, but unfortunately, what the Wan Gui Sect covets can only belong to us! Come, let’s head up the mountain!”
“Yes, Young Master!”
The man turned and reentered the palanquin, and then a bizarre scene unfolded.
The palanquin unexpectedly rose into the air as if being carried by unseen forces, speeding towards the mountain.
A ghostly levitation.
If anyone else had witnessed this scene, they would have certainly cried out in shock.
Shortly after this group went into the mountains, a few more vehicles slowly entered Qingmang Town, and the people who alighted turned out to be the young lady from Zhongdu.
Someone had already inquired at Yue Lai Hotel; Xue An had gone up the mountain in the morning.
The young lady furrowed her brows and then commanded, “Head to the mountains!”
Following her were several silent men in black, whose frames weren’t particularly imposing, but their aura of lethality was not to be underestimated.
The young lady led her people into the mountain as well.
However, by the time they found the Daoist Temples, it was already bright daylight.
Feng Shao, who had arrived the previous evening, stepped out from his tent with a somewhat gloomy expression.
Having been accustomed to luxury, he was dissatisfied; despite the tent being of top quality, it still couldn’t compare to the comfort of a room.
He approached the doors of the Daoist Temples with resentment, just in time to see Hua Tingting and Tan Xiaoyu coming out, chatting and laughing.
Feng Shao was dumbstruck.
Never had he imagined that in such a deep mountain, he would encounter such beautiful girls.
While he was still lost in a daze, a middle-aged man approached him.
“Feng Shao, it’s time to set off!”
Feng Shao nodded and then said to the elder priest, “Old Dao, is there anything unusual about these mountains?”
The elder priest’s expression was unchanged. Before he could speak, Xue An said, “I know!”
Feng Shao looked at Xue An, “You?”
Xue An nodded, “Yes! Aren’t you looking for Black Water Pond?”
The middle-aged man’s eyes brightened, then he gave Feng Shao a meaningful look.
Feng Shao caught on, “Right, then take us there, don’t worry, there will be a generous reward for your help!”
Xue An smiled slightly, “Sure, I’d like to have a look as well!”
The elder priest’s eyes flickered as he watched Xue An. He didn’t know what Xue An was up to, hesitating several times as if wanting to speak, but in the end, he closed his mouth.
As they were packing and preparing to leave, the young lady arrived with her entourage.
When she saw Xue An, her face erupted with anger, and she charged over, pointing at Xue An’s nose and cursing furiously.
“You damn Xue An!”
Xue An was so stunned by the scolding, he looked at the girl who resembled an anime beauty with a sense of strangeness.
He felt she looked somewhat familiar.
The young lady scoffed, “What? You don’t recognize me anymore? Fine, after disappearing for four years, it seems you’re living quite well. You even have beautiful girls around you. Let me ask you, do you have no conscience? My sister gave up so much for you; do you not feel any guilt?”
Xue An felt a jolt through his body and then remembered who this girl was.
An Yan’s younger sister, his own sister-in-law.
An Qing.
But when he had first met her, she was only twelve or thirteen years old, just a child, which was why he had not recognized her.
Xue An couldn’t help but give a bitter smile, “An Qing, I truly did not abandon your sister. These four years… I really couldn’t return! And these people, they’re just my friends. Your sister… is she doing well?”
An Qing scoffed, “Now you remember to ask? Where have you been all this time? I’ll tell you, my sister broke with the family because of you, and later entered the monastic life, then her whereabouts became unknown!”
Xue An’s body shook once more, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes, “Her whereabouts became unknown?”
An Qing was about to say more, but the sudden assertiveness from Xue An made her unable to continue, and she could only nod.
“Yes, her whereabouts are unknown! I have been searching for her too!”
Xue An fell silent for a moment, then shook his head solemnly, “No matter what method I use, I will find Yan’er!”
Now, Xue An’s divine sense could not cover much distance, but he believed that once his strength improved just a bit more, he could directly scan the entire Earth.
When that time came, no matter where she was, he was going to find her.
And Xue An had a feeling that his wife must be somewhere out there right now.
An Qing came all aggressive, ready to accuse and ask questions, but upon seeing Xue An’s declaration, her own heart softened first.
During this time, Xue Xiang and Xue Nian bounded joyfully up to Xue An’s side. Upon seeing these two little girls, An Qing’s expression drastically changed.
“Are these…?”
“Papa, where are we going to play today?”
This call of “Papa” made An Qing unsteady, almost causing her to fall to the ground.
“Are these children my sister left behind?” An Qing asked, her voice trembling.
Xue An nodded.
Tears flowed down An Qing’s face as she knelt and said, “Come here, let auntie give you a hug!”
Xue Xiang and Xue Nian eyed the unfamiliar girl, feeling an unexplainable kinship but still shook their heads.
“Papa, who is she?”
Xue An was silent for a moment, and then patted the two little girls’ heads, “She is your auntie!”
As he spoke, Xue An’s own heart was filled with sighs.
In the past, he followed An Yan to visit the An Family just once.
During that visit, he was utterly rejected by the entire An Family.
At that time, no one in the An Family regarded him highly, except for An Qing, who didn’t join in the mockery and disdain aimed at him then.
Afterward, it was in a huff that he took his wife to Beijiang.
Xue Xiang and Xue Nian, a bit shy, still inched closer, “Are you really our auntie?”
An Qing, her tears rolling down, nodded, “Yes!”
“Where is our mother?”
An Qing choked up a bit, “Your mother has gone to a place far away, but she will be back soon!”
“Okay, Auntie, please don’t cry,” Xue Xiang and Xue Nian, ever so well-behaved, began wiping An Qing’s tears.
An Qing embraced the two little girls in a tight hug, her heart filled with unspeakable sorrow.
In a prominent family like the An Family, despite the luxury, there was often a deep loneliness.
She had been close to her sister since childhood, but later events involving her sister were too much for her to accept.
Especially An Yan’s disappearance, which had dealt her a heavy blow.
Now, having found her two nieces, naturally, her heart overflowed with joy..
