She was actually Eldest Uncle’s daughter…
“I got it. Eldest Aunt, I will not let Eldest Uncle know.”
Suddenly, Helian Yue raised her small head as her gaze was determined, not containing the least bit of hesitation.
Yue Qin clenched her fists tightly, and after a long while, she finally released them. She did not even glance at Helian Yue before she turned around and left.
She did not know if doing this was right or wrong. However, if she did not do so, she could not vent the malicious anger within her.
Thinking about it, Yue Qin slowly let out an evil sigh, her gaze full of menace. “Yue’er, don’t blame Eldest Aunt, if you want to blame it on someone or something, just blame it on the fact that you are Tian Tian’s daughter… You are the daughter of the person your Eldest Uncle once liked!”
To repay Tian Tian’s grace, she had already tolerated her existence for over ten years. It was already sufficient.
She did not wish to continue tolerating that fact and cause her own daughter to suffer endless harm!

Helian Yue quietly looked at Yue Qin’s departing figure, and after a while, she turned back around. Her entire body was a little stiff, perhaps somewhat unable to fully regain her senses from all the information she had just received.
“Young lady…” Xiao Xiao cried. “You are still required to inform Eldest Master that you know about this matter. After all…”
“Enough!” Helian Yue shouted sharply. “He is forever my Eldest Uncle. It will not change anything, nor is it possible to ever change anything!”
Furthermore, she was not willing to change anything…
All these years, she had been arrogant in Wu Shang City. If this matter was made known to others, who knew how they would laugh at her?
This was something she did not wish ever to experience.
Helian Yue took a deep breath. Until now, she still felt her heart trembling. She bit down hard on her lip and forced herself to regain composure.
“Xiao Xiao, I wish to go and see Elder Brother Lianqing.”
Perhaps she would only feel better by seeing Feng Lianqing…
It was a pity that this time, Helian Yue had ended up empty-handed. By the time she arrived at the Feng Manor, she had noticed that Feng Lianqing had received a task and left.
She could only leave in disappointment…

Wu Shang City.
Nearby was a spirit beast mountain range.
It was known as Beast Mountain.
Previously, Suyi had warned Nan Xian not to bring Feng Ruqing into the spirit beasts’ territory. Furthermore, he could not make any promises to the spirit beasts.
However, in the end, they still unintentionally dwelled into the deeper parts of the place.
“Fu Chen,” Feng Ruqing lowered her gaze and asked. “Are you sure Xiao Ya is here?”
In the medium, Fu Chen’s voice rang out.
“I am not very sure either…”
The moment he finished speaking, Fu Chen could feel Feng Ruqing’s face darkening. He immediately said, “However, her scent has indeed disappeared from this point onward. From what I can tell, she should have been taken away by someone. That person should have some kind of token on him that blocked her breath from spreading…”
Taken away?
Feng Ruqing squinted.
Who was it that had taken Xiao Ya away?
Xiao Ya seemed to have originated from Land of No Return. Could it be… that she was in the hands of someone she once knew in Land of No Return?
“I need to find Xiao Ya, not merely for Xiao Yin’s sake, also… I have this nagging feeling that I seem to know Xiao Ya.”
This kind of familiar feeling that was in her bones could not be wrong. No matter what, she could not let anyone bully her!
Nan Xian, who was dressed in white, stood calmly by Feng Ruqing’s side. He calmly and comfortingly said, “Qing’er, you don’t have to be too worried. She is not as simple as you think she is. There would also be not much danger…”
