Seeing the blood on the ground and Aunt Ru's cold face, Ziyun was stunned, and couldn't help the chills in her heart.
What's going on here? Why? Why did Aunt Ru come back? Why... she wanted to take action against the Jiang family, whom she had never met.
Obviously... she was very happy to follow Jiang Dongliu back to Jiang's house to meet his parents today. Why did it become like this? She didn't understand, and her mind went white.
Li Ru called her several times but didn't respond, feeling confused. She vaguely remembered Jiang Dongliu, but she didn't dare to turn her head and look at his face.
The people who killed his family were her people.
What an irony. She didn't even dare think about what it meant.
When her soul barely returned, she heard Aunt Ru's words.
What is she going to do? She wanted to catch Jiang Dongliu, and Ziyun panicked instantly.
"Aunt Ru, no!" Ziyun threw herself in front of Jiang Dongliu, who was dazed and dazed, in horror, intending to protect him.
But she knew in her heart that she couldn't do it. There was nothing she could do, she couldn't stop the woman in front of her.
Who is Li Ru? Her grandmother's deputy was also a very important elder in the clan. She was saved by Aunt Yun when she was young, and was later taken to teach her personally. She was more like her than Aunt Yun's biological daughter, and Aunt Yun also loved this girl who was not related by blood but looked like her very much.
From a young girl to an adult now, Li Ru has always inherited Aunt Yun's mantle. Not a biological daughter is better than a biological daughter. Many people even vaguely doubted whether Aunt Yun had given birth to the wrong child. But the fact is that there is no blood relationship between the two.
Li Ru came all the way and took the position of elder. It can be said that Aunt Yun made a great contribution. Li Ru was supposed to be able to stand on her own feet, but she was willing to be Aunt Yun's slave. The two of them became a force and occupied great power in the Council of Elders of the Saint Clan.
It is said that Li Ru's fighting power is extremely strong, slightly surpassing Aunt Yun who taught her, and she is also a rare warrior in the clan.
Ziyun has no chance of winning against such a person, and is not even qualified to resist. Because she was too young to stand up straight in front of this accomplished female warrior.
"Ziyun." Li Ru remained calm and read out these two words slowly: "Li Ziyun! Don't forget your clan! Have you forgotten your last name?"
"It's useless for you to protect him now. If you can't even protect yourself, how can you protect others?"
"Don't worry, your punishment will come soon. The same 'crime' your mother committed."
"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to you that we were able to find the holy object so quickly..."
Looking coldly at the girl Li Ru who was lying on the ground, there was a cold sarcasm in her eyes, and a smile on the corner of her mouth was also terrifying: "Take them away together."
"Burn this place down."
In the end, Jiang Dongliu only heard this sentence: "...Thanks to you..." He became so angry that he passed out and was trapped by someone from the Holy Vein and taken away from Jiang Mansion.
That night, the Jiang Mansion was filled with flames, and the once happiest and most enviable family on the island was reduced to ashes.
————————————————
Jiang Dongliu was taken back to a dense area of the temple and secretly imprisoned. He didn't know where this place was. The surrounding area was pitch black, bone-chilling cold, and there was no light.
……no problem. It doesn't matter anymore.
Father and mother are dead, and the entire Jiang family is dead, too.
Only he is still "alive". But he was also going to die, and he wanted to die too.
Things happened so fast that he couldn't even think carefully about the meaning behind those terrible things. It was as if he was split into two people, one turned into ashes and died, and the other was burning with hatred, wishing to burn all the filth in the world.
Why? Why do this to them? A biting coldness cut down his eyes, and he thought he had no tears left. So what is that thing on his face now?
Why kill them?
Why betray him?
Jiang Dongliu even wished that he could die at this moment, so that he wouldn't have to endure this tearing pain.

"Miss Ziyun, please think clearly. This matter is related to the great cause of our clan and cannot be ignored. It must be done no matter what. No matter how much you resist, it will be useless."
"Why don't you listen to me and follow our wishes and handle this matter properly. The clan rules you violated can also be reduced, and we can also consider letting that person go. After all, we just want to stay with him. It’s just a holy thing on your body.”
The girl still didn't speak, ignored or said anything, and blocked out the persuasive words.
The man's face was livid, and his eyes were cold: "I persuade you with good intentions, but if the lady refuses to accept it, it's just your fault. It won't have any impact on the final result. What should come will come back."
"If you insist on having your own way, and we finally adopt that method, the man will eventually die." The man changed his sincere expression and said sarcastically, his eyes full of contempt for the girl in front of him.
As expected, he was the child of that "saint girl", with a well-established family background, the same shamelessness, no understanding of clan righteousness, and only cared about those disgusting little loves. She doesn't look like Aunt Yun at all, she just has inferior blood.
Aunt Yun has such a grandson, and her only grandson, which is simply a great shame for her.
Forget it, since you are so stubborn, so be it. Anyway, forceful extraction is not impossible, but she will inevitably suffer more.
What a waste of Aunt Yun's love and care.
The man shook his sleeves and left the closed room, leaving only silence in the room.
"Oh, live? Can he still live?..." A twisted smile appeared on Ziyun's expressionless face, full of various complex emotions, including sarcasm, disappointment, disgust, sadness... eyes It's clear inside.
These people are so disgusting.

"...After all the hardships, we finally welcome back...the sacred jade wall where the sacred objects are hidden, and great achievements can be expected. Today we welcome our new saint, Li Ziyun..."
Countless expectant eyes stared at the altar, and everyone was looking forward to the so-called carved wooden box containing the holy objects in the formation, as if the jade wall hiding the holy objects would be floated out of it at the next moment.
Li Ziyun, whose limbs were wrapped with runes and jade rings and placed above the wooden box, had neither joy nor sorrow in his eyes.
Suddenly, the wooden box below exploded and cracked, and a man covered in blood and embarrassment fell out of it.
"Human? How can there be a person? What is this?"
"Didn't you say it contained a sacred object?"
"What are those lunatics from the Presbyterian Church going to do? Are they going crazy thinking about holy objects?"
Aunt Yun, who was sitting on the side of the high platform, changed her face greatly: "You have ruined my plan. Ru..."
"...Wait a minute, hurry up and stop that evil!" Aunt Yun's face suddenly changed, and she rushed over, trying to stop Ziyun's actions.
But it was too late.
The bright red blood scattered everywhere, splashing on the face and body of the man below, but strangely seeped into his skin, as if it had been absorbed.
A burst of blazing green light shot out from his loose collar, which seemed to be announcing something.
"...The evil son...the holy object actually recognized its owner?!" Aunt Yun roared hoarsely, her face as white as a dead person, and her eyes were full of helpless madness.
Jiang Dongliu opened his mouth.
No more, all gone. The last thing he owned was gone.
There is still a little warmth on his face, exuding the heat that life once had.
He clearly heard that at the last moment of his life, that person said to him: "I love you."
Then he lost everything.
"Ah——" A desperate roar echoed on the altar.
I hate you.
