With Chaoyan taking him with him, Xie Jiuniang hurried on extremely fast.
The closer he got to Yunmu City, the frightening feeling became clearer.
"Master, did something happen to Yunmu City?"
"Didn't you say earlier that as long as you leave the sect, they will not touch Yunmu City?" Chao Yan didn't know what she was capable of, but he had no doubt about it.
From Xie Jiuniang's prediction, this was indeed the case.
Yunmu City was besieged, and there was no danger when she showed up.
Because the target of the person behind the scenes is her, as long as she leaves Tianxu Sect, the other party's goal will be achieved, and there is no need to create extraneous matters to mess with Yunmu City.
Moreover, four immortal cultivating families raised their voices to protect him.
As long as the people from those families are sound, they will not touch the Xie family after weighing the pros and cons.
In fact, something unexpected happened.
Contrary to Xie Jiuniang's expectation, on the day she left the clan, a deity came from the Eastern Region, that is, Ao Zhan.
He took over the matter of besieging Yunmu City.
There is no family left behind him.
The hatred in my heart has nowhere to vent.
No matter what was behind the Ao family, whether or not the destruction was related to the Son of Destiny, Ao Zhan was angry.
Therefore, the arrival of a person changed the prediction...
Xie Jiuniang originally believed in her prediction, but this feeling of panic made her even more uneasy.
As we are about to reach Yunmu City, the bad premonition is getting stronger and stronger!
"this……"
The Chaoyan consciousness covers the distance.
The scene he saw made his pupils constrict and his mind was shaken.
As for the sword spirit, at this moment, it was as quiet as if it didn't exist. He just hoped that his master would not remember him.
Xie Jiuniang came back, but it was too late.
Yunmu City is now in ruins.
The entire city was dead silent, not even a single complete house existed.
Devastated everywhere, no one alive.
With the city lord's palace as the center, it was extremely tragic!
The once familiar buildings and the familiar environment are all gone. Not even a single tile exists. It is a deep pit.
Everything turned into powder!
There is still a trace of blood in the air...
Xie Jiuniang's eyes were blurred by tears and she was choked with sobs.
His legs went weak and he fell to his knees.
At this moment, she just felt her head buzzing, "How could it be? How could this happen... It shouldn't be like this, it shouldn't be."
Chao Yan surveyed the surrounding situation.
Seeing the sadness on Xie Jiuniang's face again, she sighed in her heart.
The crisis in Yunmu City was beyond the apprentice's expectation. However, Chao Yan knew that the apprentice had tried his best. This time he asked someone to take action, but he paid a lot of good things.
The sword spirit was extremely quiet. He was surprised to see that his master was a little unstable and said quickly: "Master, you have worked very hard. This time you are not afraid of death and hiding in the sect."
"They were implicated by me..." Xie Jiuniang felt regretful.
"What does it have to do with you? It's not your fault!"
The sword spirit comforted him anxiously, not wanting his master to get into trouble and affect his future immortality, "There are a lot of people behind you who want your life, and they won't let you rush to Yunmu City."
It's like it was predicted.
I can't reach Yunmu City every time.
In the past half month, Sword Spirit? witnessed his master forgetting to sleep and eat, never resting for a quarter of an hour, and even using himself as bait.
It's a pity that Sword Spirit?'s words did not comfort Xie Jiuniang.
Xie Jiuniang lowered her eyelids.
Tears fell down one by one, dripping into the soil on the ground, and disappeared in an instant. "If I knew this would be like this, I would not have planned it like that..."
"In the foreknowledge, they are obviously fine..."
The more she thought about it, her heart ached, and she was so sad that even breathing hurt. She knelt down before the city lord
In front of the old mansion, she hated her powerlessness. In fact, just because she left the family, it didn't mean that she wanted to destroy it.
She couldn't even deceive herself that she had nothing to do with the family's destruction.
The family lived well in the previous life.
The only variable in this life is her...
At this time, a big hand pressed down on her shoulder, applying slight pressure. Chao Yan's voice came from above her head, "Yuan Xi, stand up!"
"Master, it was me who harmed them, it was me..."
Xie Jiuniang's voice was trembling, "And my parents..."
Chao Yan interrupted her, "Looking at the traces of the battle, it should have happened not long ago. The smell of blood in the sky is very light, which means there may have been changes along the way. Let's investigate again."
If a city's people die, the smell of blood must be very strong. ..
Now it's just that the city has been destroyed, but it doesn't look like all the people in the city have died.
Xie Jiuniang raised her head, with tears in her eyes, but she listened to Chao Yan's words, and her rationality gradually returned.
He shrugged his nose and sniffed.
The smell of blood in the city is very light.
The sword spirit flew out of the divine pattern space and circled around the ruins of the city, "Master, this city was destroyed not only by the actions of strong men, but also by the self-destruction of the ancient formation."
"The formation self-destructs..."
Xie Jiuniang's thoughts changed.
Under Chao Yan's gaze, a silver light appeared out of thin air.
In the silver light, he could vaguely see a long rushing river in the light and shadow, and the water of the long river was silver and mysterious. Chao Yan was extremely shocked.
"The long river of time..."
This is the legendary river of time!
Is it the big secret hidden by his apprentice? !
Xie Jiuniang stepped into it, her figure disappeared, and she was in the familiar river of time, stepping behind her without hesitation.
The next moment, the tragic and bloody scenes that happened in Yunmu City were displayed in front of her one by one...
In looking back in time.
As soon as he entered his eyes, he saw a bloody light in Yunmu City, an earth-shattering explosion, flames filling the sky, and endless screams.
A series of frightened faces.
The familiar and the unfamiliar are all in front of you.
I saw the executioners entering the city and slaughtering them wantonly in the city.
Seeing Ao Zhan again, he laughed wildly and threatened to kill all Xie's family.
Then I saw my grandfather deliberately letting people into the city, activating the city's grand formation to self-destruct, vowing to die together with the demons who massacred the city!
I also saw the clan elders guarding the core of the formation, launching the attack with their heart's content, risking their own lives, and throwing themselves into the center of the formation one by one, risking their lives...
When Xie Jiuniang came out of the river of time, she was already in tears.
Chao Yan didn't know what to say for a moment.
He held her in his arms and patted her back gently, comforting her silently.
At such a close distance, he could vaguely detect images in the silver light, and occasionally saw one or two tragic fragments.
Suzaku saw more than he did, and told him the situation, "Some people died. At the moment of the big explosion, it seemed that a powerful force arrived in time and took action..."
"Are you sure?" Chao Yan asked.
Suzaku said firmly: "Someone took action and rescued the people in the city by means of large-scale relocation."
Chao Yan breathed a sigh of relief, but looking at his disciple's dejected look, he didn't seem to notice it.
