Xu Xinning smiled and stepped forward to Xu Xialian, saying, "Second Aunt, this must be my little cousin."

Xu Xialian pulled the little girl over, patted her head, and said, "Call me 'sister'!"

The little girl blinked her big eyes, puzzled, and said, "Ada and the others said they wanted to call her princess."

Xu Xinning picked up the little girl, peeled a White Rabbit milk candy, put it in the child's mouth, and said with a smile, "You're my older sister, call me older sister, and I'll buy you candy from now on."

The little girl's eyes lit up when she heard this: "Sister, beautiful sister."

Xu Xinning liked this child very much. Although there were patches on her clothes, Xu Xialian had cleaned them very well and styled them with two little braids. She looked well-behaved and sensible. "Good girl. You can stay at your sister's house from now on. I'll ask Grandma to cook you something delicious."

The little girl wrinkled her nose and said, "I'm not going. My brother said Grandma is a bad person."

Xu Xinning pinched her little nose and said with a smile, "There's also a good grandma. My sister's grandma is good."

Little girl: "Two grandmothers? I have two grandmothers."

Xu Xinning smiled, knowing that the child was too young to explain clearly, so she didn't dwell on the issue.

This time, Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng brought some rice and flour. The items in the space are renewable; whatever is taken out, there will still be some left inside. However, the two of them have limited abilities and cannot simply take it out for free, so they didn't bring much.

The houses on the mountain are all built of wood, and even many of the roads are built of wood.

This is a paradise on earth. On the mountaintop, many fields have been cultivated, where not only grains are grown, but also many fruit trees.

Xu Xialian's family lived in the very center of the village, and there was an altar not far from their house.

Xu Xinning took Xu Xialian's pulse and found that the baby was developing well in her womb, so she was relieved.

Xu Xinning and Mu Jingheng did not stay at Xu Xialian's house for long; they sat for a while before being led into the underground palace.

Xu Xinning never imagined that these people would build houses on top of her tomb in order to protect it, and that the altar was the entrance to the underground palace.

When Xu Xialian's father-in-law first noticed that people were frequently going up the mountain looking for something, he began to secretly keep an eye on them. Later, when he discovered that those people were looking for the wealth that the Japanese hadn't taken with them before they left, he started to distract them, which is why the matter of the Resurrection Pill came about. In fact, he wanted to attract the attention of his superiors so that those enemy agents wouldn't succeed.

Only after arriving here did Xu Xinning understand his good intentions.

The cauldron on the altar gently turned, and the door to the underground palace opened.

As I walked down the stone steps, I was surprised to find that the entire underground palace was brightly lit, with either luminous pearls illuminating the way or ever-burning lamps burning everywhere I went.

If you look closely, you'll see murals carved on the walls, depicting Xu Xinning's life story.

Xu Xinning never imagined that her short sixteen years would leave so many memories in her family's hearts.

Further inside, Xu Xinning saw that the walls were engraved with major events that had happened in the country since she was gone, with the specific dates of these events also marked.

The north is suffering from drought, resulting in poor harvests, widespread hunger, and a scene of despair across the land.

The south was hit by floods, followed by a plague, and rotting corpses were everywhere, plunging the entire nation into panic.

Xu Xinning seemed to see her mother's busy figure in the picture.

The border is in crisis, and war is imminent.

The emperor himself took command, while his elder brother oversaw the country.

Further inside, there are paintings on the wall depicting people performing rituals. An old monk with white eyebrows and a white beard, and a young monk with hair still intact, are meditating and chanting scriptures. In front of them, on a bed, lies a sleeping girl.

Xu Xinning knew that the person lying there was her past life, and that the young monk with hair was her twin brother.

Judging from the portrait, she did not actually die, but became a comatose patient.

Sitting beside the bed was a young general in armor. Xu Xinning guessed that this was her fiancé whom she had never met.

I heard that her fiancé has an extremely handsome appearance, but when he goes to the battlefield, he becomes the enemy's king of hell.

Mu Jingheng felt inexplicably familiar with this person, and then suddenly noticed that the person was wearing a plaque similar to his own.

Mu Jingheng pointed to the man wearing the "nothing happened" sign and asked Xu Xinning, "Who is this person?"

Xu Xinning: "He was my fiancé in my past life, and also a war god."

Mu Jingheng: "Look at the 'nothing' badge on his chest, doesn't it look familiar? Do you think it might have some connection to mine?"

Xu Xinning examined it carefully, then frowned and said, "I can't tell, but I'm certain that your piece is the same one as my mother's."

The two didn't dwell on the matter, since it was just a mural, and it would be too difficult to identify it.

Xu Xinning was very puzzled as to why her family would carve so many important events in her tomb, but she trusted her mother and knew she would not allow such pointless things to be done. So she unconsciously memorized these events and the dates of their occurrence.

Upon arriving at the main hall, we found it to be very large and beautifully decorated. Upon closer inspection, we discovered that it was adorned with expensive gemstones. The ceiling was designed to resemble the sky, with many twinkling stars made of gemstones.

In the very center of the main hall stood a beautifully carved coffin. Xu Xinning approached and saw that it depicted a strange event from her childhood.

However, what Xu Xinning didn't understand was why she would only carve this one thing.

She remembered that not long after she learned to walk, one of her royal uncles died in an assassination. Xu Xinning went to the funeral the day before. She didn't know what happened that day, but she kept pointing at the coffin and saying that her royal uncle was uncomfortable lying in it, and that he said he was going to suffocate.

The princess consort of the royal uncle must have been bewitched by something. She believed Xu Xinning and opened the coffin lid. Unexpectedly, the royal uncle was in a state of feigned death at the time. Fortunately, Xu Xinning discovered it, and the royal uncle escaped a disaster.

Did her family want her to open the coffin lid?

Xu Xinning did just that. With a forceful pull, the coffin lid actually opened, leaving Xu Xinning stunned for a long time.

She never expected the coffin lid to open so easily.

Didn't I hear that the coffin lid was nailed shut with a soul-suppressing lamp?

Xu Xinning was certain that there were no soul-suppressing nails nailed on it at all.

The coffin was already open, and Xu Xinning peeked inside.

Where are they?

Where is she?

Why is there no one in the coffin?

Did she not die in her previous life?

What about all the sacrifices her bodyguards and their descendants made?

That's unbelievable.

Xu Xinning found a beautiful bead in the coffin. It was a deep blue color and very clear when held up to the light. It seemed as if something was flowing inside it.

This bead is clearly very valuable.

Xu Xinning didn't put it back in the coffin; instead, she stuffed it directly into her shirt pocket.
