Clang! The wine glass in Jiang Yuan's hand crashed to the ground, shattering into pieces.
It took Jiang Yuan a long time to come to his senses. He forced himself to calm down and asked, "How did she die in battle?"
"With the Zerg pressing in, she chose to burn her soul to maintain the power of the Fuxi Harp." Liu Zhaodi clearly knew a series of things, but she had kept it from Jiang Yuan because she was worried about his condition.
"Burn your soul!"
Jiang Yuan's heart trembled. These four words seemed to shatter his last bit of composure. If she had only been killed, he might have been able to revive Mi Tan'er through reincarnation in the future, but her soul had been burned.
That……
"Today is the 21st day after her death, and this afternoon the Fuxi clan will hold the final encoffining ceremony within the clan," Liu Zhaodi said regretfully.
"Oh right, I still need to go to Tianfu to take care of some things!"
Jiang Yuan, who had originally planned to go to the Fuxi clan, suddenly changed his mind, and his expression became casual, as if he didn't want Liu Zhaodi and the other to see any of his inner thoughts.
"That……"
Liu Zhaodi hesitated for a moment, but then sighed and nodded, saying, "Alright, let's go to Tianfu first!"
The three of them arrived at the entrance of the teleportation array, but Jiang Yuan remained absent-minded.
The two women exchanged glances, both understanding what Jiang Yuan was thinking at that moment; he had never been one to enjoy being in debt.
Let's go!
After Jiang Yuan came to his senses, he was about to step into the teleportation array, but Liu Zhaodi and An Xiaoyu did not move.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yuan asked with a smile.
Liu Zhaodi stopped and shook her head, saying, "I have other matters to attend to at my chamber of commerce, so I'm afraid I can't accompany you to Tianfu."
After saying that, Liu Zhaodi turned and left.
An Xiaoyu used a similar excuse, saying, "There is war breaking out in Lizhou, and I need to go back to take care of Tianxian Pavilion."
They all knew very well that it was precisely because they were there that Jiang Yuan was unwilling to go to the Fuxi clan, because it would put them in a difficult position.
"How come something happened out of the blue?" Jiang Yuan was still confused about what was going on.
"This is the location where the Fuxi clan fought against the insect race. Go back and see if you can find her soul seed!" An Xiaoyu stuffed a small piece of paper into Jiang Yuan's hand, then stepped into the teleportation array before Jiang Yuan, leaving without looking back.
Watching the two women leave, Jiang Yuan said absentmindedly, "Do you also think I should go back and check on them?"
Looking at the name written on the note, Jiang Yuan's hands trembled. He had never intended to kill anyone, and Mi Tan'er's death was completely unexpected.
"Did I really do something wrong?"
Jiang Yuan remained silent, but the note in his palm burned to ashes in a suppressed flame.
"Zerg!"
At that moment, a dense killing intent filled the world. He spread his wings and headed straight for the place where the Fuxi clan and the insect race were fighting. He still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. If he could find Mi Tan'er's soul seed, then perhaps everything could still be salvaged.
Saint Demon Wings had never been so fast before. He rushed towards Mi Tan'er's fall like a beam of light, but the result disappointed him.
The battlefield was a scene of devastation, clearly the site of a major battle. Human skeletons and insect carcasses were all traces of the fighting. But even though Jiang Yuan had searched the entire battlefield, he couldn't find a trace of Mi Tan'er's soul seed.
"The Will of Death!"
"Heavenly Eye!"
Jiang Yuan frantically tried to extract memories from the marks of the dead, but the scenes he saw were always the same: Mi Tan'er burned everything to stabilize the Fuxi Qin, and in the end, all life returned to nothingness.
"sorry!"
Jiang Yuan collapsed, pressing his head in despair. He hadn't known that absorbing the Fuxi Qin would lead to this outcome. He would have preferred to be just a fraction lower in reincarnation level rather than sacrifice so many members of the Fuxi clan to achieve his own.
He thought that Mi Tan'er left the mark of the Fuxi Qin with him to prevent calamity, which is why he chose to use the Fuxi Qin. However, he did not expect that this would directly lead to such a serious butterfly effect.
"Your emotional debts are hard to repay; you're in trouble now." The Eternal Holy Body on the other side uttered its own words at this moment.
The Eternal Holy Body remained at the source, and although it had contact with Mi Tan'er, it was nowhere near as empathetic as the Demon God Body.
"Mi Tan'er's soul seed may have been taken away by the Fuxi clan, yes, that's it!"
"That must be it!"
Jiang Yuan seemed to have grasped the last straw for a drowning person. He nodded repeatedly and once again spread his Holy Demon Wings and flew at high speed.
“Your injury is difficult to treat. You just used up your divine energy to help Grandpa Lu and the others establish their foundations. Using the Holy Demon Wings like this now will leave lasting effects!” Saint Jiangyuan, representing reason, advised.
However, Jiang Yuan paid no attention to this and instead increased his speed, heading straight for the Fuxi clan.
"well."
How could the Eternal Holy Body not know? The two were originally one, only he represented the rational side of thought, while the Demon God Body was more impulsive. But even if it was impulsive, it was best to avoid getting involved in Mi Tan'er's mess, because behind the Divine Emperor Family lay a mysterious Divine Emperor's Tomb.
That place is the legacy left by the battlefield of fallen gods to the final battlefield. If the demigods or even stronger beings inside were to awaken, Jiang Yuan would be unable to shake it at present. That is why the Eternal Holy Body is unwilling to go to the Fuxi Clan.
Jiang Yuan swiftly traversed the entire country, attracting much attention, and the Jiang family in Ancheng was the first to receive the news.
"Patriarch, we have confirmed Jiang Yuan's identity. He is none other than the young master who was expelled years ago."
Inside the Jiang family compound, the heads of the three major branches gathered together.
"Jiang Yuanjun, this Jiang Yuan is a member of your Zhongyuan Jiang family. Can you confirm his identity?" Jiang Haizong, the head of the Duhai Jiang family, asked in a deep voice.
The old man sitting at the head of the table shook his head and sighed, "It's been almost twenty years, how could I possibly remember what he looked like? Besides, he must still hold a grudge against us for expelling him from the Jiang family back then."
