The fires in the pharmacy and the South Courtyard were both extremely strange. It was obvious that someone had set the fire maliciously, but no one nearby saw anything suspicious. Even a Xiao Clan man who had been guarding the door of the pharmacy did not see anyone entering or leaving the pharmacy.
Fortunately, the fire was not too intense and was quickly brought under control. Xiao Yunhai quickly arranged the fire, then anxiously called Xiao Gu and rushed back to Xiao Yulong's courtyard.
After opening the door, before Xiao Yunhai could even open his mouth to call out Xiao Yulong's name, he felt like he was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze.
Xiao Yulong was no longer on the bed, and he was lying on the ground like a dead dog. He was covered in blood, with a bloody black mark on his wrists and ankles, and his hands and feet were twisted. His entire face was covered in blood, and only two piles of flesh and blood remained on both sides of his ears. His nose and upper lip had disappeared, and blood bubbles were coming out of his mouth. Red, white, and black liquid flowed out of his two dark eye sockets... His lower body was completely stained red.
Xiao Gu's whole body was shaking, and his legs were so sore that he half-knelt on the ground. He had been a doctor all his life, and had seen countless injuries, big and small, but he had never seen such a cruel, bloody, and inhumane scene. From Xiao Yulong's skin color at this time, he could see that Xiao Yulong was not dead yet... and his vital signs were not weak at all... but this miserable state was more miserable than dying hundreds or thousands of times.
Xiao Yunhai was trembling all over, his heart was broken, and his face was pale. As if he vaguely sensed someone approaching, Xiao Yulong's body twitched, and a desperate groan like sandpaper rubbing escaped from his mouth with blood bubbles...
Xiao Yunhai's body shook suddenly, he staggered forward, and suddenly roared like a madman: "Who is it!!! Who is it!! Who is it!!!"
"Get out here! I'm going to chop you into pieces! I'm going to cut you into pieces! I'm going to cut you into pieces! I'm going to cut off your progeny!"
Xiao Yunhai's roar contained endless resentment and madness, as if he had suddenly gone crazy. He felt that his chest was about to explode and the blood vessels in his body seemed to be bursting. Looking at his own son lying on the ground, his body broken, neither a human nor a ghost, he wished he could cry loudly, and even more so, he wished he could really go crazy!
“Who is it! Who is it? Get out here!! Get out…Ah!!!!!”
With a shrill roar, Xiao Yunhai rushed forward two steps, completely shattering the back window of the room. At this moment, he suddenly found two rows of blood-red words on the wall next to him... words written with the blood of his son Xiao Yulong.
"Old dog Xiao! To congratulate your son on his imminent ascension to the Xiao clan, I offer you a great gift. Please accept it."
“Uhhhhhhhh!!”
Xiao Yunhai punched hard, smashing the wall with blood words written on it. He let out a sharp roar, a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth, then his eyes rolled back and he fell heavily on his back to the ground.
------------------------
After brutally torturing Xiao Yulong, Xiao Che returned to his room and put the clothes Xiao Lingxi had made for him and all his savings into the Sky Poison Pearl. His savings were not much, a total of 1,800 Huangxuan coins.
Before leaving, he hesitated for a moment and put the blanket that he and Xia Qingyue had covered themselves with into the Sky Poison Pearl.
"This is the place where I've lived for sixteen years... I probably won't come back again."
Xiao Che looked at this place with some nostalgia for a long time... Of course, what he missed was not the Xiao Clan, but the fact that this place had too many memories of him and Xiao Lingxi. Before he was eleven years old, this was not only his room, but also Xiao Lingxi's room. At that time, they stayed together day and night, and were together almost every moment...
After staying there for a long time, Xiao Che returned to his hidden state and climbed over the wall to enter the back mountain area.
There was still more than an hour before the Xingyin Pill expired. The main reason why he would use this Xingyin Pill was that he wanted to meet Xiao Lie and Xiao Lingxi to confirm their safety. Xiao Yulong alone was not worth wasting a Xingyin Pill. Although he found two Xingyin grasses on the first day of his rebirth, he was sure that there might not be more than ten Xingyin grasses in the entire Tianxuan Continent.
Killing Xiao Yulong was just a side job. To get back a little interest for myself, and for everything that Grandpa and my aunt had gone through… just a little interest!!
The one he really wanted to kill was Xiao Kuangyun! However, even with the magical power of Xingyin Pill, he couldn't kill Xiao Kuangyun at all. Although he didn't know Xiao Kuangyun's profound strength, even if he was a straw bag, he was from Xiao Sect after all, and his profound strength must be many levels higher than Xiao Yulong's.
But he couldn't do it now. One day, he would make himself able to... He vowed to get back this debt ten thousand times more!! He was no longer the cowardly and self-deprecating Xiao Che. He was more like Yun Che who was proud of all the heroes in the world! For forcing his master to death, he vowed to make all the sects in the world bury him! For hurting his loved ones, he vowed to make Xiao Clan and Xiao Kuangyun regret it for the rest of their lives!
The way he tortured and killed Xiao Yulong was extremely cruel, enough to make most people who saw that scene sweat all over and have nightmares. But in his eyes, it was not cruel at all, it was the price that people who touched his reverse scale had to pay! !
The Xiao Clan was in chaos at this time, and the piercing alarm sounded for a long time. And this was exactly what Xiao Che wanted... He tortured and killed Xiao Yulong and set fire inside the Xiao Clan, and another reason was to force the Xiao Clan to issue a call for all the members... Under the call for all the members, all the people guarding the back mountain must go back.
As he expected, he had not walked far when he saw four people from the Xiao Clan coming towards him anxiously. They rushed past him like the wind and headed straight towards the Xiao Clan.
Xiao Che quickened his pace and headed straight for Siguo Gorge in the back mountain.
Siguo Gorge is the place where Xiao Clan locked up the children who made mistakes. It was dark and damp inside, hot in summer and cold in winter. Fortunately, the entrance was narrow, so no ferocious beasts would break in.
In Xiao Che's memory, not many people were imprisoned in Siguo Gorge, and the longest time was no more than two months. But the people in the Xiao Clan knew that Xiao Lingxi was framed, but they still wanted to lock them up for fifteen years...
Fifteen years... How many fifteen years can a person have in his life? Xiao Lingxi is only fifteen years old this year. If she is locked up inside forever, then the most beautiful moments of her life will be spent in darkness, coldness and loneliness... What a cruel torture.
After he came out of hiding, Xiao Che looked at the entrance of Siguo Gorge and clenched his hands... How could he allow his grandfather and his aunt to be imprisoned in this place forever... However, he had no ability to rescue them now. He could only watch, endure, and hate...
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Che walked forward. Without hiding, his footsteps naturally made a sound. The footsteps attracted the attention of Xiao Lie in Siguo Gorge. He looked outside vigilantly. When his eyes met Xiao Che's, he was startled and said in a lost voice: "Che'er!!"
"ah!"
A young girl exclaimed, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps. Xiao Lingxi's figure soon appeared beside Xiao Lie. Her face was slightly haggard, and her hair was a little messy. When she saw Xiao Che, she covered her lips with her fingers and stood there. In just a moment, a lot of tears began to swirl in her eyes...
"Xiao Che!" She shouted, rushed over, threw herself on Xiao Che's chest, hugged him tightly with both arms, and cried loudly. She thought that she would be locked up for fifteen years, and Xiao Che would be expelled from the Xiao Clan, and she would not be able to see him again for at least fifteen years. Unexpectedly, as if in a dream, he suddenly appeared in front of her again.
Xiao Lie walked over, his face full of excitement: "Che'er...you...why are you here? Did the Xiao Clan ask you to come back again?"
Xiao Che shook his head and patted Xiao Lingxi's soft back. "I came back secretly... But don't worry, Grandpa. Something big has happened inside the Xiao Clan. Everyone has been summoned back. No one will find me."
"..." Xiao Lie nodded. He didn't even ask what happened inside the Xiao Clan. Because he was already disheartened by the Xiao Clan. Even if the clan was destroyed, he wouldn't be too moved.
There are many caves in Siguo Gorge, some deep and some shallow. The layout inside is very simple, and the only thing that catches the eye is those cold stone tables.
Xiao Lingxi cried so hard that it was almost dark. Xiao Che did not try to stop her from crying, allowing her to vent all her grievances, fears, worries, and hesitations. Otherwise, if she stayed here for too long, she might become depressed... After all, she was only a fifteen-year-old girl.
When Xiao Lingxi stopped, she almost fainted from crying.
Xiao Che and Xiao Lie sat face to face at the stone table. Xiao Lingxi leaned on Xiao Che's side, hugged his arms tightly with both hands, and rested her head on his shoulder. She didn't care that Xiao Lie was right next to her, and was always unwilling to let go, for fear that he would disappear from her world again.
"After you were locked up, did they use any tricks?" Xiao Che asked worriedly.
Xiao Lie shook his head and smiled comfortingly, "Don't worry. The Fairy Chu from Bingyun Immortal Palace hinted that she would protect us before Xiao Zong left. With this deterrent, how dare they hurt me and Xier. And after Xiao Zong's people left, they dared even less. After all, my reputation as the number one expert in Liuyun City is still there, hehe."
“That’s good.” Xiao Che nodded, feeling grateful towards Xia Qingyue’s master.
“Xia Qingyue is a good wife. She didn’t tear up the marriage certificate until the very end.” Xiao Lie said with some melancholy.
"..." Xiao Che nodded silently.
The three of them were silent for a moment. After today's disaster, their future fate would undoubtedly be turned upside down. There were thousands of words in their hearts, but they didn't know where to start...
"Grandpa, I want to know..."
"You want to ask who your biological parents are? Right?" Xiao Lie said calmly as he followed his words.
"Yes," Xiao Che nodded, looking at Xiao Lie intently, "I believe I wasn't picked up for no reason... Grandpa, you must know something, right?"
Xiao Lingxi also raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Lie with surprise on her face.
Xiao Lie looked at Xiao Che silently for a long time before he sighed softly and slowly closed his eyes.
"I originally thought that this secret would stay in my heart forever, and no one else would ever know it... Now, Xiao Clan can no longer accommodate you, and you have grown up, so it's good for you to know it. It's the duty of descendants to recognize their ancestors and return to their roots..."
"Your biological father, his last name is Yun..."
