Jiang Xianyue quickly caught up with Chen Yan and his companions.
When Chen Yan and the others saw Jiang Xianyue catching up with them unharmed, the big stone in their hearts finally fell to the ground.
At this time, Jiang Xianyue had already returned to human form.
They didn't dare delay for even a second, for fear that the killers would catch up with them, so they continued to run wildly.
Along the way, the sound of the wind whistled past my ears, as if the god of death was chasing me with a scythe.
Half an hour later, they finally escaped some distance.
They didn't stop until they were sure they had reached a relatively safe place.
Jiang Xianyue took a step forward and hurried to Chen Yan's side, and began to check the injury on her shoulder.
Because they needed to cut open their clothes to better treat the wound, Chen Yan and Jiang Xianyue tacitly walked to a more secluded corner and set up a barrier to prevent anyone from spying.
Jiang Xianyue's movements were gentle and smooth. With a flash of cold light in her hand, the sharp dagger instantly cut through the clothes on Chen Yan's shoulder.
As the clothes slowly slid off, the bloody wound was suddenly exposed.
Seeing this, Jiang Xianyue's expression suddenly became solemn, his brows were tightly furrowed, and his eyes were full of worry.
"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious." As if sensing Jiang Xianyue's mood, Chen Yan spoke to comfort her.
Jiang Xianyue frowned as she treated her wound and said, "This is a penetrating wound, not a minor one."
At this time, Chen Yan suddenly asked: "Your hometown is in the prehistoric world?"
Jiang Xianyue paused for a moment, then looked at Chen Yan and said, "Hmm."
"I wanted to tell you earlier."
Chen Yan raised her eyes to look at her and said with a smile: "It's not too late to tell us now. But you should tell all of us."
Jiang Xianyue hesitated for a moment, pursed her lips and nodded.
…
After Jiang Xianyue told them that she was from the prehistoric world, they did not look shocked because they had already guessed it.
They chose to remain silent, quietly waiting for this moment to come - waiting for Jiang Xianyue to confess everything to them in person.
This waiting is not out of distrust or pretense, but a kind of respect and understanding.
Because they know that everyone has their own secrets and unspeakable things, and only when Yueyue is willing to share them actively will this trust become more precious.
Yu Changying held her hand and asked, "Yueyue, what happened in your hometown back then?"
Jiang Xianyue explained, "There was chaos in the clan, so I had to respond to the call and return."
"Are you safe now?" Pei Su asked softly.
Jiang Xianyue nodded and said, "I will come back to see you after this matter is resolved."
Zhuge Youlin stared at her, his tone becoming heavier: "Have you encountered any danger in these years?"
Jiang Xianyue raised her eyes and met his gaze.
"Anything that can be solved is not dangerous." She did not give a definite answer.
Zhuge Youlin also heard the hidden meaning in her words, so he changed the subject and asked, "Can we go to the Honghuang Sea now?"
Jiang Xianyue glanced at him and said indifferently, "If you want to die, go ahead."
"Why?"
Jiang Xianyue said, "Because you are not a mermaid, and your strength is not enough to support you to reach the Great Sea safely."
When Zhuge Youlin heard this, his expression turned puzzled. "Yan Yan, where are we going now?"
Chen Yan's expression was indifferent. "Where we go is not the point. The point is that we must improve our strength first."
"That's right." Xiao Zechuan agreed.
Wen Yuchu looked at Jiang Xianyue: "Yueyue, you are quite familiar with the prehistoric world. Do you know where is a good place for us to improve our cultivation?"
Jiang Xianyue heard this and thought about it seriously.
After a moment, she looked up at them and said, "Perhaps that's the only place that's both safe and can help us improve our cultivation."
"where?"
"Tiandou Deserted Courtyard."
…
Two days later.
In the remote mountains, an ancient and mysterious Tiandou Deserted Courtyard stands quietly like a sleeping giant.
Tiandou Deserted Courtyard is surrounded by towering trees and shrouded in clouds and mist, as if it is isolated from the world.
At this moment, several figures appeared outside the Tiandou Deserted Courtyard.
"Is this the Tiandou Deserted Courtyard?"
They slowly raised their heads and cast their gazes towards the nearby Tiandou Deserted Courtyard. The first thing that caught their eyes was the cracked and tilted plaque hanging high above the courtyard gate.
It is about to collapse when blown by the wind.
Looking at the courtyard wall again, it was now almost completely covered in dark green moss. The moss was like a winding python, tightly coiled around the wall, revealing a suffocating atmosphere of desolation.
The gate of Tiandouhuangyuan was closed.
It looks like it has been abandoned for a long time.
Chen Yan and the others didn't say anything, but just looked at Jiang Xianyue quietly.
Jiang Xianyue: "..."
"I haven't been here in years."
Wen Yuchu keenly caught these three words: "Many years?"
Zhuge Youlin suddenly realized something and looked at Jiang Xianyue curiously. "Yes, Yueyue, you are a mermaid. How many years have you lived? And why did you appear in the lower realm of Guiyuan Continent?"
Jiang Xianyue fell silent.
"Has it been a thousand years?"
Jiang Xianyue glared at Zhuge Youlin, "How many years I've lived is none of your business."
Zhuge Youlin was stunned, then asked cautiously, "Are you angry? I don't think a thousand years is that old. Didn't Yanyan live for over 30,000 years?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Yan raised her hand and slapped him on the back of the head.
