Wu Tongyu stopped talking at this point.

Ji Fengyao understood what he meant, and her heart ached, so she stopped asking questions.

Although her father did not have time to leave her with the power of the blood curse, her parents sacrificed their lives to save her.

She felt this love and this affection deeply;

It's likely that many of the remaining blood relatives of the Yun family in the world also share this sentiment.

"Miss, what's going on? How can Brother Wu make the Moonstone react?" Xique came to Ji Fengyao's side, looking at Ji Fengyao's moist and red eyes, feeling both heartache and curiosity. "He is a descendant of the Yun family, and also a blood relative of our Ji family," Ji Fengyao said to Xique through divine sense. "He is the same as my brother, but he has wandered alone for many years, and we don't know how much suffering he has endured. We should treat him even better in the future."

"I understand, Miss. I will treat him the same way I would treat the young master," Xique nodded solemnly, her lips pressed tightly together.

"Also, don't tell anyone else about his identity for now," Ji Fengyao instructed again through telepathy.

“I understand, Miss. I won’t change my mind until those bastards from the Zhou and Dongdan families are wiped out.” Xi Que gave Ji Fengyao a knowing look, then turned and skipped over to Wu Dongyu, exclaiming excitedly, “Wow, Brother Wu, it seems you and my young lady are related! It’s true what they say, ‘Birds of a feather flock together.’ It’s fate that we’re all together!”

These words distanced Wu Tongyu from Ji Fengyao, preventing people from paying too much attention to Wu Tongyu.

It also allowed everyone to feel equal and undifferentiated warmth, so as not to create a sense of disparity.

Ji Fengyao and Wu Dongyu both showed relaxed and warm smiles.

Ji Fengyao, in particular, felt deeply gratified.

Xi Que has truly grown up; he's no longer that reckless and naive bandit.

Now, Xique is fully capable of standing on her own and has truly become her right-hand man.

This little incident was quickly forgotten by the magpies, and everyone soon threw themselves back into the mining business.

Ji Fengyao then distributed two small storage rings, each containing five cubic meters, to everyone so that they could easily store spirit stones, moonstones, and jade.

They dug their way in.

Six more days passed, and they saw a dazzling light coming from the cave ahead.

The golden light was not sunlight, but rather the light refracted from sunlight shining on a large amount of gold and crystal.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

A strong, powerful heartbeat faintly emanated from behind the golden light, carrying an inexplicable sense of intimidation.

What is that?

An Zijin, Lu Yang, and the others stared ahead in surprise and doubt, stopping their digging.

"Miss, could that be the heart of an immortal?" Magpie's mind worked quickly for once, which was rare for her.

"You all wait here, I'll go take a look first," Ji Fengyao said, as if giving a command.

She figured that the heart of the immortal wouldn't be so easy to obtain, so she decided to go and take a look by herself.

The magpies and the others are not powerful enough. If anything happens, she has the Tower of Life to protect her, but they don't.

“Miss, why don’t I go with you? It’ll be good to have someone to look after you.” An Xinjin was a little worried and took two steps forward to catch up.

“The heart of an immortal is extraordinary. You and Lu Yang should stay here to protect everyone.” Ji Fengyao felt very warm and patted An Zijin’s shoulder to comfort him, “I will be fine.”
