With a flash of mysterious light, Yun Che had been teleported to the first floor of the Black Moon Merchant Guild.
As the lowest "grade" level of the Black Moon Merchant Guild, the aura here is not as rich and compelling as the seventh level. Yun Che looked forward. This was a simple and elegant independent room. In terms of layout, it should be
An ordinary reception room. He didn't have time to see the whole place clearly, and his eyes were fixed there.
Beside the dark red wooden table, a middle-aged man with a gentle face stood up slowly and smiled slightly at him: "Che'er, you're here."
Yun Che opened his mouth, and there was a sharp soreness in his nose. He walked forward quickly and bowed down heavily: "Uncle Xia..." He paused and immediately changed his words: "Father-in-law, I finally see you again."
"Haha, get up." Xia Hongyi stretched out his hand, helped Yun Che up, looked at him with gentle eyes, and nodded happily: "In a flash, it has been more than six years, and you have grown up, although you don't look much like that.
It has changed, but when you and Qingyue got married, it only reached my forehead, but now, it is already half a head taller than me."
Indeed, he had never seen Xia Hongyi again since he was forced to leave the Xiao Clan. When he returned to Liuyun City, he wanted to visit Xia Hongyi first, but learned that he had already left home and was missing. Three years ago
He came to Divine Phoenix City and accidentally learned that he was in the Black Moon Merchant Guild, but he felt ashamed that he had not met him... It has been more than six years since we met again now.
From Xia Hongyi, Yun Che did not feel negative emotions such as darkness and silence. Instead, he felt a kind of peaceful leisure and elegance. This also made him feel better. He smiled and said: "As for growing up, Yuanba
He has really grown up. If my father-in-law saw Yuanba now, he might not be able to recognize him."
"Oh? So, have you met Yuanba?" Xia Hongyi smiled more gently, but there was deep concern in his eyes.
"Yes." Yun Che nodded heavily. The Black Moon Chamber of Commerce has the best information. He believes that Xia Hongyi already knows many things: "Yuanba is really amazing now. He is currently guarding the last place of our Blue Wind Kingdom."
On the defense line, our Blue Wind Kingdom's heaviest and greatest mission is carried on our shoulders... With him here, even if the Divine Phoenix Kingdom has thousands of troops, it will not even be able to invade the imperial city even half a step!"
"Okay...that's great." Xia Hongyi nodded slightly, his still peaceful smile revealing deep pride and satisfaction.
"When we Cangfeng escapes the disaster and recovers, you and your son can be reunited...and this day will definitely not be far away."
"Yuanba..." Xia Hongyi muttered softly, and then breathed out, with too many complex emotions that no one could understand. No one would have thought that...including his father, the talent in Liuyun City back then was only
Xia Yuanba, who could be called mediocre and could only be reduced to a laughing stock in Blue Wind Profound Palace, had risen at a mythical speed in just a few years, and now stood at the top of Tianxuan, making the four
The Great Holy Land was horrified.
Compared to others' shock and disbelief, Xia Hongyi's feelings about Xia Yuanba's changes were much more complicated.
The two sat opposite each other and talked freely. Yun Che had always respected Xia Hongyi very much. Because during those years in Liuyun City, he only had two people's concept of elders... one was his grandfather Xiao Lie, and the other was Xia Hongyi.
.Because apart from his relatives, Xia Hongyi is the only elder who truly cares about him, a "waste", and is always gentle and right. He has never said a word about refusing his genius daughter to marry a "waste" like him, even older.
Most of the wedding matters were handled by him personally.
After experiencing two lives of grievances and life and death, he knows better than anyone how precious the true warmth is when he is at his lowest, when he is surrounded by other people's cold eyes and ridicules.
Xia Qingyue entered Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace, and Xia Yuanba's whereabouts were unknown... The blow to Xia Hongyi back then was too heavy. In order to find the whereabouts of Xia Yuanba, he left his ancestral property behind, left Liuyun City, and used the opportunity left by his ancestors
Entered the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, and even entered the general association by chance.
During these years in the Black Moon Association, he did the same things every day, met different people, and went to inquire about his children every few days. The news about Yun Che also made his state of mind gradually change.
More and more peaceful.
"Father-in-law, there is a question, and I want to know the answer. But as a junior, maybe I shouldn't ask..." Facing Xia Hongyi, Yun Che wanted to ask the doubt that had been in his heart for a long time, but even though he had decided to ask
He wanted to speak out, but he was still hesitating... After all, that might very well touch Xia Hongyi's most sensitive nerve.
"Do you want to ask... Yuanba and Qingyue's mother?" Xia Hongyi looked at him and said slowly.
"..." Yun Che looked surprised.
"Haha, anyone would be surprised." Xia Hongyi smiled faintly, and then a layer of sadness appeared on his face: "Yuanba and Qingyue were obviously born in merchant families. Our Xia family has been a merchant for generations. I,
Both my late father and my grandfather were like this. They only occasionally practiced Xuan Dao and had no interest in it. However, Qingyue had extremely high talent in Xuan Dao since she was a child. Yuanba... In these years, she has shown far more talent.
A talent that is different from ordinary people."
Yun Che was silent for a moment and nodded slightly: "Because I know more about the inside story, I have more doubts than others."
"I already know that Yuanba has a special power called the 'Overlord Divine Vein'. I don't know exactly what the 'Overlord Divine Vein' is, but I know that the number one person in the Xuan Dao of Tianxuan Continent is
——The Holy Emperor of Huangji Sanctuary favored Yuanba because of this. After it was exposed three years ago, the other Three Holy Lands were also shaken. Even in the past three years, many people came to visit me openly and secretly. After finding out,
After learning about my origins and my profound strength, they all returned disappointed, haha..."
Xia Hongyi shook his head slightly and smiled lightly. His expression was not helpless, but a kind of self-mockery that others could not understand.
Many of Xia Hongyi's reactions showed that he was not too surprised or unable to accept the heaven-defying talents of his son Xia Yuanba and daughter Xia Qingyue respectively, but was more melancholy. Yun Che said: "This
I just asked casually out of curiosity, it doesn’t matter if my father-in-law doesn’t want to talk about it..."
"It was a cold winter twenty-five years ago." Before Yun Che could finish his words, Xia Hongyi's voice rang out immediately. He looked up at the blue ceiling, his eyes becoming hazy and hazy: "I completed a big deal outside.
It was getting late on the way back, and the snow suddenly fell, making the cold unbearable. In order to get back to Liuyun City before dark, I took the route and crossed a mountainous area where dangerous mysterious beasts often appeared.
Halfway through the journey, it suddenly stopped and the servant reported to me... that a man unconscious in the snow was found ahead."
"That was a young woman of similar age to me. She was dressed in white, but most of it was stained with blood. Although I was only in my twenties at that time, I was born in a merchant's family and was taught by my family since I was a child. I knew very well that as a merchant, I would never
Don't get involved in the grievances of the mysterious people. It is a huge taboo for a businessman to save such a person whose origin is unknown and who is obviously being hunted by his enemies. However, that woman is not only extremely beautiful, but also has a kind of helplessness.
Describing her special temperament, she was unconscious in the snow, breathless, but so weak that people couldn't help but want to protect her... In the end, I rescued her and brought her back to Liuyun City... Although I
At that time, it was clear that this behavior was likely to bring great disaster to myself."
"..." Yun Che listened quietly. He knew that the woman Xia Hongyi rescued must be the mother of Xia Yuanba and Xia Qingyue.
They actually met in this way.
So, what exactly will be her identity?
"After I brought her home, she didn't wake up for a long time and her vitality became weaker and weaker. So I searched for famous doctors and even sent people to Crescent City for medical treatment many times, but they all said that she'd run out of vitality.
There was no way to save her. Seven days later, I had already given up, but she faintly woke up... After waking up, she was not only extremely weak, but also lost all her memory."
"Lost all memory?" Yun Che frowned fiercely.
"That's right. She didn't know why she was injured, where she came from, or even who she was. Perhaps she suffered amnesia due to head trauma. After that, she stayed at the Xia family, because
Her body has always been weak and she almost never leaves the house, and I personally take care of her. In order to make her better, once I find a good Ganoderma lucidum and snow ginseng anywhere, I will not buy it at any cost...
But the strange thing is that no matter how much she nourishes herself, she remains extremely weak, and she will be out of breath even after walking more than ten steps. But fortunately, she has never had any other symptoms."
All kinds of nourishing...even great tonic, but still weak? At the same time, there is no sign of deficiency or lack of supplementation?
Yun Che frowned, and a trace of confusion flashed across his face.
"Because I met her in the cold winter and in the snow, I named her Dongxue, which just corresponds to 'Xia Dong'. I get along with her day and night, and we are in love. Although I still don't know who she is and where she comes from,
Still unable to control her emotions, I married her two years later. Soon after, she became pregnant. Because she was too weak, the doctors advised her to give up the fetus, otherwise it would be extremely dangerous to give birth. The same was true for me.
I tried to persuade her, but she insisted on giving birth... Just seven months later, she suddenly went into premature labor and gave birth to Qingyue."
"Perhaps due to premature birth and the mother's weak constitution, Qingyue could not cry or move when she was born, and her whole body was cold. The midwives and doctors all said that the baby was still alive. Fortunately, your father Xiao Ying came and noticed that Qingyue was born.
Yue still had a trace of life left, so she gave all her profound energy to Qingyue to protect her heart and save her last chance of survival. Also with Xiao Ying's full rescue, Qingyue miraculously recovered after an hour.
It got better and started crying..."
"..." Yun Che's heart was deeply touched. He had heard Xiao Lie talk about this when he was very young, and almost everyone in Liuyun City knew about it. It was precisely because Xia Qingyue's fate was
Xia Hongyi was extremely grateful for Xiao Ying's rescue and proposed on the spot to marry Xia Qingyue to Xiao Ying's son in return for saving his life.
Xia Hongyi closed his eyes slightly and continued: "I thought that if Qingyue suffered this disaster as soon as she was born, her body would be weak and sick, but to her surprise, Qingyue has been healthy and healthy since she was a child. She grew up safely, and she is extremely intelligent and has a better mind.
She is far more mature than her peers. Her mother's health improved rapidly after giving birth to her. Within a month, she was no different from a normal person and no longer weak. A year later, she gave birth to me again,
I gave birth to Yuanba..."
Having said this, Xia Hongyi's voice paused. He still looked up at the sky, his eyes were completely blurred, and his hands were trembling faintly. If he joins hands with the one he loves, he will have both children, his wife will recover from illness, and his children will be healthy.
He still maintains a rich family fortune... In the eyes of everyone, especially Xia Hongyi himself, he already has the most perfect life.
Xia Hongyi was silent for a long time, seeming to be immersed in the infinitely beautiful joy and satisfaction of that time. After a long time, Yun Che finally broke the silence: "Then... what happened next? Grandpa said that Yuanba and Qingyue's mother was due to illness.
And passed away...is it true?"
He had never doubted this before, and had no reason to doubt it.
But at this moment, he had no reason not to doubt it.
"When Qingyue was four years old and Yuanba was three years old, she... left." Xia Hongyi said in a dreamy voice.
"Leave...?" These two words can have many meanings.
"She flew away... flew away like a fairy."
Yun Che: "!?"
"On that day, she suddenly recovered the memory that had been dormant for many years, and also regained the strength that had been dormant for many years... She did not stay for one more day, or even for one more hour... She just left... Although she was crying
, but she left extremely resolutely... She said that when she recovered her strength, her aura had already been discovered... If she didn't leave, she would bring a huge disaster to me and her children... When she left
He also said... we will never see each other again in this life... and we should never look for her... just treat her as..."
Xia Hongyi's voice was very painful. Even though nearly twenty years have passed, Xia Hongyi's reaction proved that he still has not forgotten or let go. He has a huge family fortune and is the richest man in Liuyun City, but he has never married again in these years.
He had never even taken a concubine before. It can be imagined that the woman he named "Dong Xue" held a lot of weight and irreplaceable status in his heart.
"Then... did she... ever mention... or vaguely mention... where she went?" Yun Che asked tentatively in a small voice, thinking about how he should comfort Xia Hongyi at this time.
Xia Hongyi did not shake his head. He breathed a sigh of relief, and in a voice as vague as mist, he said four words that had been engraved in his heart, but no message or trace had been found in more than ten years...
"The Realm of the Gods."
"!!" Yun Che suddenly froze, and did not come back to his senses for a long time.
————————————
When Yun Che walked out of the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, the time was approaching noon.
He looked at the bright sky and sighed heavily: "I really didn't expect that Qingyue and Yuanba's biological mother... would be so bizarre and complicated. No wonder they have such a terrifying talent, an Overlord Divine Vein,
A heart of ice and snow glazed glass and an exquisite body of Nine Mysteries... Their mother actually came from such a place."
"The first time I heard the name 'Realm of the Gods' was from the Dragon God. This time, I actually heard it from Uncle Xia." Yun Che exhaled a long breath, unable to calm down the turmoil in his heart.
"A woman who can give birth to a daughter with the overlord's divine veins and a heart of ice and snow will definitely have a high status even in the world of gods." Jasmine said calmly.
"No woman would really want to say goodbye to her husband and children forever... She must have great difficulties." Yun Che said to himself: "If one day, I can go to that place called 'The Gods'
If there is a place like the Boundary, maybe we can try to find traces of her... even for Yuanba and Qingyue."
Feeling the fluctuations in Yun Che's soul when he was talking to himself, Jasmine in the Sky Poison Pearl moved her delicate eyebrows slightly, and suddenly said: "Do you really have plans to go to the Realm of the Gods?"
"Of course." Yun Che nodded directly: "After all, I personally promised the Dragon God back then to work hard enough to find and reach the place called the Realm of the Gods. I can have such a powerful body, blood, and soul now,
It is all given at the cost of destroying itself. Naturally, I have to do what I promise it with all my strength. However, it is only with all my strength... If I cannot reach such a state in my life, there is naturally nothing I can do."
"I suggest you persuade yourself to give up this somewhat stupid idea." Jasmine said coldly.
"Huh? Why? You don't want me to go there?" Yun Che was slightly stunned.
"Hmph, now is not the time for you to think about these things." Jasmine changed the subject forcefully: "You should think more about the relationship between the Black Moon Merchant Guild and the Supreme Sea Palace now."
"You don't need to think about this." Yun Che turned around and glanced at the dark waning moon towering in the sky: "Behind the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce is the Supreme Sea Palace...or maybe the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce is originally from the Supreme Sea Palace.
The other half."
"The other three holy places have their own huge resource chains and resource areas, but the Supreme Sea Palace is located on the sea surrounded by water, but its status in the four holy places has never declined, even surpassing the Sun Moon Palace and the
The Mighty Heavenly Sword Territory is second only to the Emperor Holy Territory. How could it be possible without the huge supply of resources from the mainland. And this huge resource chain is naturally the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce."
"Zi Ji should have guessed that I would think of the relationship between the Black Moon Merchant Guild and the Supreme Sea Palace based on what he said. However, this should not be a secret at the level of the Holy Land. But Zi Ji forced it to buy it from me.
Taking away ten Overlord Pills will severely injure the other Three Holy Lands." Yun Che stretched out his hand and nodded his chin: "In this way, his Supreme Ocean Palace will have ten pills for himself, and the other Three Holy Lands will grab twenty pills...
...No! These twenty Supreme Sea Palace stones will definitely come to grab them, otherwise the other three holy places will be suspicious. In this way, one family will have five, and the Supreme Sea Palace will have fifteen stones exclusively..."
"Well, then I will give you three thousand from Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace!"
"That's what happens in the Holy Land, hahahaha!" Thinking of this, Yun Che suddenly felt very good and strode towards the west...directly in the direction of the Divine Phoenix Sect.
"Hmph, you use something refined from a profound treasure like the Sky Poison Pearl to despise a group of forces from lower planes. It is simply blaspheming a sacred object! You are actually proud of it!" Jasmine snorted with disdain.
pole.
"Next, how should I collect my debt..." Yun Che looked in the direction of the Divine Phoenix Sect, and his voice suddenly became sinister.
————————————
Phoenix City is located in the southwest of Divine Phoenix City. It belongs to Divine Phoenix City and exists independently. It is a special city within a city. Like Divine Phoenix Palace, Phoenix City is the core residence of Divine Phoenix Sect. The difference is that one is the core of the power;
It is the core of power, and both of them have unparalleled prestige and deterrence in the Divine Phoenix Empire and even the Seven Tianxuan Kingdoms.
As we approached Phoenix City, we were greeted by a palpitating sense of oppression and obviously hot air.
This is the second time Yun Che has come here, but compared to three years ago, both his purpose and mood have changed drastically. Looking at the phoenix sculpture above the city gate with its head raised and spreading its wings, releasing scorching brilliance, he did not
After feeling the wonder and slight awe from three years ago, what flashed in my mind was the devastated land of Cangfeng Kingdom, the dilapidated city, the displaced citizens, the battlefield filled with corpses...the memorial tablets in the Cangwan Valley... Cang Yue's
Tears... the cry of the Blue Wind warriors... Sikong Du's angry and desperate roar...
The fire of anger and hatred ignited in his chest and burned fiercely... He could not forget the purpose and mission of coming here, let alone the bloody fifty million... and the hatred of the country's almost subjugation.
"Who is this? This is Phoenix City, not a place for mortals like you. Go away!"
In front of the gate of Phoenix City, the guarding Phoenix disciples took a few steps forward and scolded Yun Che in an arrogant tone. From Yun Che's body, he did not feel the aura of the Phoenix, and the citizens of the Divine Phoenix City who did not have the aura of the Phoenix, even though they
In the eyes of these lowliest Phoenix disciples, they are just inferior people, and naturally they are not qualified to enter Phoenix City.
"Huh? Why does this person look so familiar?" The guard disciple on the right curled his lips and said.
Yun Che narrowed his eyes slightly and said softly with an incomparable sense of luck: "Go and report to your sect leader Feng Hengkong that Yun Che is here to visit."
He spoke very slowly, but every word was filled with murderous intent that was beginning to boil.
