1815 In Chunfeng Town (2)
As the president of the Mercenary Union, Zhan Li certainly couldn’t go anywhere he wanted. Murong Yuntian was fine in the past, but he had family matters now and couldn’t travel casually. Mo Yuanbu didn’t want anyone else to follow him. He would also feel very uncomfortable. When he saw Qu Lanyi, Mo Yuanbu sized him up for a long time. “Are you the person this girl likes?”
Qu Lanyi intuitively felt that the old man in front of him wasn’t a simple person, so he replied in a low voice. Later, Yun Feng introduced him as Mo Yuanbu, the person who was already dead.
Along the way, Yun Feng asked Mo Yuanbu about his and Yun Lan’s era from time to time. Mo Yuanbu was also very willing to answer. Every time he talked about it, he looked like he was immersed in his memories. If she talked about other things, Mo Yuanbu would ignore her.
Yun Feng also learned a lot of things about her ancestor, Yun Lan, from him. Yun Lan was a three-element summoner and had always been the pride of the Yun family on the East Continent. He was the core power of the Karan Empire back then and had done a lot for the Karan Royal Family. However, when he mentioned the Yun family’s attitude towards the Karan Royal Family, Mo Yuanbu only sneered and said, “It’s not worth it.”
Qu Lanyi nodded in agreement. Yun Lan only returned because of the Karan Royal Family’s needs. Mo Yuanbu, on the other hand, chose to continue traveling alone. The two good friends separated and didn’t meet in the end.
It had always been a regret in Mo Yuanbu’s mind that he didn’t see Yun Lan for the last time. Luckily, this regret could finally be made up for. Even though Yun Lan had already disappeared, the existence of her soul could be considered a coincidence. Mo Yuanbu also asked a lot about Yun Lan. Yun Feng told him everything she knew, including the matter of her ancestor being taken away by the Blood Souls.
“The Blood Souls again! They didn’t even let go of his soul!” Mo Yuanbu was immediately enraged after hearing that! The means and behavior of the Blood Souls could be said to be unscrupulous. They definitely wouldn’t let go of anyone, not even a trace!
“Have they let go of anything?” said Qu Lanyi. Along the way, every move of the Blood Souls was outrageous! They slaughtered, plundered and killed! What hadn’t they done? In order to get what they wanted, they would do anything!
“One day, the Blood Souls will completely disappear from this world!” Mo Yuanbu’s black eyes glittered as he said in a low voice. Yun Feng also whispered on the side, “That’s right. They’ll disappear from this world, completely and forever!”
After arriving in the Inner Area, Yun Feng informed the three elders in advance. After all, she had to enter the ancestral hall of the Yun family. Even though Mo Yuanbu wasn’t a member of the Yun family, the three elders of the Yun family had opened the door and allowed Mo Yuanbu to enter the ancestral hall. However, Yun Feng had to guard outside, just in case. The ancestral hall of the Yun family was where the tablets of the previous masters and important figures of the Yun family were kept. It was sacred and inviolable. It was already very tolerant of them for an outsider to step in.
Mo Yuanbu stepped into the ancestral hall and a gust of cold air came right at his face. He saw tablets one after another, as if a kind of power was emitted from these tablets, which was intimidating. Mo Yuanbu took a deep breath and said to the silence in the room, “Old man, I’m here to see you.”
Yun Feng and Qu Lanyi guarded outside the ancestral hall. It was quiet in the ancestral hall. Yun Feng wanted to look inside curiously, but Qu Lanyi pulled her away with a smile. “Don’t peek.”
Yun Feng curled her lips. “I’m not peeping… I’m just worried…”
“It can’t be so fast. Even his soul can’t dissipate so quickly… The ancestor must still be here,” said Qu Lanyi in a low voice. Yun Feng’s heart tightened. The ancestor said that his soul was already quite weak and might completely dissipate. If Senior Mo didn’t even have this opportunity… she might as well not bring him back.
After a long time, the door of the ancestral hall was pushed open and Mo Yuanbu walked out with an inexplicable smile at the corners of his mouth. He looked at Yun Feng deeply with his black eyes. “Kid, thank you.”
Yun Feng smiled. “It’s what I should do.”
Mo Yuanbu chuckled. Qu Lanyi glanced at the ancestral hall and said in a low voice, “Senior Mo, the ancestor…”
Mo Yuanbu’s expression froze. Then, he sighed softly. “Kid, Yun Lan has always been proud of you. He said that you’ll become the greatest summoner in the history of the Yun family. You’ve never let him down, but… he can’t continue walking with you.”
“Senior Mo…?” Yun Feng’s heart ached fiercely! She looked at the ancestral hall and coldness seemed to rise in her body.
Mo Yuanbu lowered his black eyes slightly and patted Yun Feng’s shoulder with his hand. “Yun Lan told me a lot about you. He kept smiling when he left and didn’t leave any regrets.” Mo Yuanbu caressed Yun Feng’s head gently with his big hand. “That old guy said… he really wanted to do that, but unfortunately…”
Yun Feng’s heart suddenly ached! She rushed into the ancestral hall and searched around the ancestral hall with her black eyes. Ancestor, ancestor! You’re really gone!
Qu Lanyi’s eyes were full of sympathy. Mo Yuanbu smiled helplessly. Qu Lanyi said in a low voice, “The ancestor meant a lot to her…”
Mo Yuanbu chuckled. “Yun Lan values her very much. This is the first time I’ve seen a junior that he can’t stop praising.”
“Can Senior Mo’s regret be resolved?”
Mo Yuanbu chuckled. “My regret has been resolved, but I’m afraid that girl will have another knot in her heart.”
“No, I’m here for her.”
Mo Yuanbu was stunned for a moment. He chuckled. “That’s for the best.” Mo Yuanbu turned around and left, leaving Qu Lanyi waiting outside the ancestral hall alone. A gust of wind lifted the corners of Qu Lanyi’s clothes and he looked in the direction of the ancestral hall with his black eyes. Qu Lanyi stood there without moving.
Yun Feng came out of the ancestral hall expressionlessly. Qu Lanyi quickly walked over and held Yun Feng in his arms without saying anything. He pushed her hand away firmly with his slender fingers. Looking at his red and swollen palm, Qu Lanyi frowned slightly.
“Xiao Fengfeng…” Qu Lanyi said in a low voice. Yun Feng suddenly interrupted him. “There’s no need to say anything. I know. The ancestor once said that his disappearance is inevitable. Everyone will experience life and death.”
Qu Lanyi was slightly stunned. Then, he smiled helplessly and rubbed her red and swollen palm gently with his finger. He said helplessly and gently, “Don’t hurt yourself next time.”
