Chapter 893: Chapter 893: The Bloodline of the In Family! Family Background! The Tragic of That Year (1)

When In Qiushi uttered the title, he felt a tinge of unease.

The incident had occurred over twenty years ago.

Some of those who knew about it had died, while others had buried it deep within their hearts.

The younger generation of the In family was completely unaware of the tragedy that had transpired.

It was a taboo subject that no one could mention.

In the In family, to join the elder council, one had to possess a Class A bloodline.

In addition, a series of assessments had to be passed.

Only after successfully completing all these could one enter the elder council.

Thus, the great elder was undoubtedly the most powerful among the elders.

Even so, when those people attacked the In family, the great elder was overpowered and killed. The other losses were even more tragic.

In Qiushi had been present at the scene.

Whenever he recalled the horrific event, his heart wrenched in pain.

If not for that incident, with their dual Class S geniuses, the In family would have certainly become the leading family among the three great evolved being families.

Unfortunately, over the years, the In family had suffered greatly.

Had it not been for their strong foundation, they would have long been replaced by other evolved being families.

Old Lady In’s hand trembled, her voice quivering, “What did you say? She looks like Beichen?!”

In Beichen and In Yaonian.

The In family had placed great hopes on these genius brothers, even giving them names with auspicious meanings.

Beichen symbolized the North Star, implying being surrounded and admired by others.

Yaonian symbolized peace and stability, implying a world in harmony.

However, they could not escape the fate of being envied by the heavens.

“Old lady, it is just my guess,” In Qiushi quickly said. “There are many people in the world who look alike. I initially didn’t pay much attention, but that young lady’s calm and strong demeanor reminded me of the big young master. But… it’s impossible. I must be overthinking due to my longing for the big young master.”

When he was young, he had always been by Old Lady In’s side, watching In Beichen and In Yaonian grow up, treating them as his own children.

Experiencing such a situation, how could he not be heartbroken?

“We must verify even our suspicions!” Old Lady In’s expression grew more solemn, her voice lowered, “And even if she has no resemblance to Beichen, she saved my life. Did you not leave any contact information?”

In Qiushi felt helpless, “It’s not that I didn’t want to, but I couldn’t. However, I’ve already sent the guards out to investigate. Rest assured, old lady, we will find out.”

As he spoke, the guards returned.

Seeing that Old Lady In had already awakened, the head guard was overjoyed, “Old lady!”

“Did you find the girl?” In Qiushi spoke first, “The matter is urgent, old lady needs to meet her personally.”

“Uncle Qiushi, there’s no need to look,” the head guard said awkwardly, “because her photo is all over the streets outside, everywhere.”

In Qiushi was puzzled, “What?”

“She is a celebrity, a big celebrity,” the head guard stammered, struggling with the unfamiliar terms, “Si Fuqing, a new top star in the entertainment circle. This ‘top star’ means she has a huge fan base, thanks to a hit drama called ‘Crossing the Demon Realm,’ which is a fantasy series also airing abroad…”

The more In Qiushi listened, the more anxious he became, “Get to the point! Don’t waste time with this nonsense! Where is her family? Who are her relatives?”

“Oh, right,” the head guard quickly pulled out a second sheet of paper, “Miss Si is an orphan, raised by the Zuo family, which has since fallen. Later, she was found by her uncle and aunt, and the family now lives in An City. There might be other family members, but this is all the information we have.”

There were no photos of Nian Tingchu, Ye Zhenmian, or Nian Yi’an circulating online.

Si Fuqing was very careful about protecting her family’s privacy, especially Nian Tingchu’s information, which was completely untraceable.

“An orphan?” The more In Qiushi thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, “Do you have a photo?”

The head guard promptly handed over the photo.

Old Lady In took it, her whole body trembling.

“To reverse the raging tide and support the collapsing edifice…Fuqing signified the support of the collapsing edifice.” she murmured, looking at the girl in the photo, “Fuqing, Si Fuqing, this name… this name is something Beichen would choose!”

Old Lady In was almost instantly certain that Si Fuqing was of the In family’s bloodline.

“Yes!” In Qiushi clapped his forehead, his tone excited, “That’s the big young master’s motto! Old lady, what if… what if it’s true…”

“An orphan?” Old Lady In couldn’t catch her breath for a moment, her heart ached as if pricked by needles. She stared blankly, “Does this mean Beichen really isn’t…?”

The news of the two brothers’ deaths came shortly after they were forced to leave the In family publicly.

Those who had targeted the In family for five whole years finally left.

For twenty years, they hadn’t appeared again, allowing the In family to rebuild.

It was because of this that the In family had remained low-key all these years.

Even the In family’s supreme elder didn’t know who they had offended back then.

Old Lady In never believed her two sons had perished.

Her children were so clever; they must have found a way to fake their deaths.

To avoid attracting those enemies again, Old Lady In had refrained from investigating.

Separation was better than death.

But upon seeing the word “orphan” in Si Fuqing’s information, she couldn’t hold back anymore.

Old Lady In suddenly burst into tears, followed by uncontrollable sobbing.

The head guard was baffled, “Uncle Qiushi, Old lady…”

“Old lady, it might not be certain yet,” In Qiushi couldn’t bear to see her like this and tried to comfort her, “We need to meet her first. Only then can we be sure.”

“Here is the contact information for her studio!” The head guard quickly pulled out Si Fuqing’s studio’s email address, “We can contact her through this email.”

“Hurry,” Old Lady In wiped her tears, “I need to see her as soon as possible.”

In Qiushi quickly reached out to Si Fuqing’s studio.

But he didn’t hold much hope in his heart.

With no hope, there would be no disappointment.

**

Meanwhile, at the Mo family.

In the past two days, the Mo family’s outer members had heard that a female celebrity had passed the Mo family’s preliminary hidden weapon test.

It was the first time a celebrity had joined the Mo family.

The outer disciples were curious and gathered around when Si Fuqing went to the training ground.

Si Fuqing was approachable and friendly, making the outer members like her. They eagerly offered to teach her other hidden weapon techniques, but were sternly blocked by Xi Jiang.

Jokingly, if his Brother Nine knew, he would be in trouble.

Besides, Si Fuqing was personally taught by his Brother Nine. No other teacher could compare.

Xi Jiang stood by Si Fuqing’s side, specifically responsible for glaring at the other members.

Meanwhile, a boy of about eight or nine was assembling a sleeve arrow.

He assembled it quickly, completing it in just a few seconds, then ran to Si Fuqing and handed it to her.

Si Fuqing raised an eyebrow, “For me?”

The boy made a few gestures and pointed to himself.

A nearby guard translated promptly, “The little young master says you look beautiful, and this is a gift for you.”

Hearing this, the boy glared at him.

The guard continued with difficulty, “He also said for you to wait until he grows up, as he will marry you.”

Si Fuqing was puzzled, “…?”

The boy nodded in satisfaction and handed Si Fuqing a piece of paper.

On it were the characters “Mo Chuxing.”

In this generation of the Mo family’s direct line, the leading name was “Chu.”

Following that was “Yan.”

This was because Mo Yanwen had elevated the status of the “Yan” generation.

Xi Jiang sighed, feeling at a loss.

How could he handle this?

He couldn’t possibly go and tell Yu Xiheng that Miss Si was fancied by a little boy, could he?

Xi Jiang coughed twice, having to change the topic, “Does the little young master have a throat problem?”

The guard sighed, “At the beginning of last year, the little young master suffered a severe fright and hasn’t spoken since.”

“Aphasia?” Si Fuqing patted Mo Chuxing’s head, “Have you consulted a doctor?”

“We have,” the guard replied, “The doctor said his brain functions were damaged and he also has a psychological issue. Medication can’t cure him. The Miracle Doctor Alliance has also been consulted, but there is no solution, only waiting for a miracle.”

Si Fuqing seemed thoughtful, “I see.”

Xi Jiang did not mention that Si Fuqing could practice medicine.

The Mo family was, after all, a thousand-year-old family that had absorbed many outsiders.

With so many people around, walls had ears, and not everyone had good intentions.

Possessing a treasure could invite trouble; he couldn’t cause Si Fuqing any problems.

Just then, footsteps approached, and the guard immediately bowed, “Miss Chuyi.”

Xi Jiang stood behind Si Fuqing and did not move.

He was Yu Xiheng’s personal guard and represented him. When facing other direct members of the Mo family, he didn’t need to bow.

Mo Chuyi glanced at Xi Jiang.

She remembered how Father Tan had used many connections to get his son into her class.

Yet Xi Jiang preferred to be a celebrity’s bodyguard rather than focus on hidden weapons.

Mo Chuyi despised such unambitious outer members.

But Xi Jiang’s choices had nothing to do with her. She couldn’t manage all the main family members of the Mo family, let alone the outer members.

“Miss Si, is it? It’s already a privilege for you to be able to enter the Mo family to study. Please do not interfere in our family’s matters. Chuxing is not someone you can get involved with.” Mo Chuyi’s gaze moved to Si Fuqing, her expression cold and her voice stern, “Also, today we have important guests visiting the Mo family. It’s not someone you can offend. You better go back to your residence immediately.”

The guest was from the In family, an evolved being family that even the Mo family couldn’t afford to offend.
