Chapter 1692 - Returning To The Red Lotus Territory Once Again (2)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The First City has changed greatly ever since Gu Ruoyun and the others had left.

The ones to bear the brunt were the Red Lotus Territory and the Secret Order which were attacked by the Dark Earth Realm’s Underworld!

Gu Ruoyun knows that the Underworld belongs to Qianbei Ye and Qianbei Ye had given the Underworld to her. Therefore, she was shocked to the core when she heard that the Underworld had attacked the Red Lotus Territory.

“Mother,” Xiao Xun’er blinked as he turned towards Gu Ruoyun and asked innocently, “Didn’t you say that the Underworld was Father’s territory? Why is Father attacking Maternal Grandfather and Grandmother?”

Gu Ruoyun fell silent for a moment. Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and her expression changed.

Xiao Xun’er was so frightened when he saw his mother’s expression that he did not dare to say another word. He thought that his words had caused his mother to become unhappy so he kept quiet and stared at her with his large, teary eyes.

“Zixie.”

Gu Ruoyun gently took a breath and communicated through her soul. “Is anyone aware of Cang Ming and Xiao Ye’s similar looks?”

After a moment, Zixie’s gruff, demonic voice echoed within her mind, “I’m afraid that only Qianbei Ye knows about this matter. It’s been ten thousand years and we’ve known him for so long yet we never figured out his relationship with Cang Ming. I believe that he would never tell anyone else.”

“Since that’s the case, I’m convinced that the person who had ordered the Underworld to attack the Red Lotus Territory must have been Cang Ming! However, based on Cang Ming’s power, he doesn’t need anyone else’s help if he wants to attack the Red Lotus Territory and the Secret Order. He could do it himself. Why has he not appeared and only asked the Underworld to do his dirty work?”

Gu Ruoyun could not figure it out at all. What worries her even more was that since Cang Ming now controls the Underworld, does that mean that something had happened to Xiao Ye?

“Little girl, you can rest assured. Qianbei Ye is powerful so he shouldn’t fall so easily. Besides, based on what you’ve just said, if something had really happened to Qianbei Ye, I fear that Cang Ming would have broken through to the Full Circle State. If that’s the case, he wouldn’t need to ask the Underworld to do his dirty work. “Zixie consoled soothingly. “I believe that both sides have been seriously wounded. Qianbei Ye must have gone to recover his wounds in an unknown location and Cang Ming had hidden himself in the Underworld. He then used his striking similarity to Qianbei Ye and took over the Underworld.”

Someone like Qianbei Ye would head off to an undisclosed location once injured and would not return to the Underworld! Hence, Zixie had also concluded that the person controlling the Underworld was certainly not him!

“I hope that’s the case.” Gu Ruoyun took a deep breath yet her heart still carries a worry which could not be quashed. “Zixie, can you help me with something?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“What is it?”

“I need to rush to the Red Lotus Territory. Otherwise, Mother, Father, and the others will certainly be in danger. However, I can’t stop worrying about Xiao Ye too. I want to ask you to find him for me.”

A wave of silence hung over her soul.

After a long pause, Zixie’s voice rang out once again, “Alright!”

As long as it was Gu Ruoyun’s wish, he would fulfill it! Even if the person he has to save was his rival in love!

“Thank you.”

Gu Ruoyun lowered her eyelids and her gaze filled with sincere gratitude. “Zixie, I owe you too much in this lifetime and you’ve never asked for anything in return.”
