The Angel God statue stood tall within the hall.
Qian Renxue and Qian Renjue, hand in hand, entered.
Looking at the coffin beneath the statue, Qian Renxue felt as if she were back in the past.
She trusted that Qian Daoliu would handle everything.
That he would conceal the cruel truth.
Qian Renjue stared at the coffin, his legs seeming weighted, his steps faltering.
He had clearly given Qian Xunjie enough means to survive!
Watching them, Golden Crocodile and Mighty Lion Douluo couldn't help but lower their heads.
"Grandfather, what exactly happened to Father...?"
Qian Renjue raised a finger, pointing at the coffin with a look of confusion in his eyes.
"Jue."
Qian Renxue called out to him, gently embracing him.
Even though it was the second time, the pain was no less than the first. Seeing the two children…
Even Qian Daoliu's eyes couldn't help but redden slightly.
He apologized, saying: "Little Xue, Little Jue, it's Grandpa's incompetence. I couldn't protect your father."
"..."
Qian Renjue stared blankly.
Memories flooded back, and a mist gradually welled up in his eyes.
"Yes, kneel."
Qian Renxue sobbed, pulling Qian Renjue down to his knees.
"Xiao Xue, don't worry, your grandfather will avenge Jie!"
Tears welled up in Qian Renjue's eyes.
He didn't listen to Qian Daoliu anymore, instead staring blankly at the bloodstained candy in front of him. Why didn't Qian Xunjie eat it?
Drip! Clear tears fell onto the candy, as if trying to wash away the bloodstains.
"Grandfather."
Qian Renjue's voice was hoarse, his head bowed, tears streaming down his face.
A hint of killing intent emanated from him for the first time. "Little Jue, speak."
Qian Daoliu was already prepared with his speech, ready to place all the blame on the Clear Sky Sect.
"Se… seven days!"
Qian Renjue buried his head, sobbing.
Even without activating his Martial Soul, his voice turned icy.
Under the doubtful gazes of Qian Daoliu, Qian Renxue, and the others, he raised his tear-streaked face.
His eyes were bloodshot, and the coldness in his words made everyone feel a little apprehensive! "In seven days, can we destroy the Clear Sky Sect?"
"Jue…"
Qian Renxue's voice was choked with sobs.
Looking at Qian Renjue's cold expression, she felt a sense of relief.
He didn't know who the real culprit was, and she was a little scared.
She didn't want Qian Renjue to be stained with that filthy blood.
She didn't like that kind of younger brother. "..."
Qian Daoliu's breathing hitched.
It became steady again. He nodded heavily, but didn't fully agree.
"Little Jue, Grandpa will do his best."
Turning his head, he looked at Qing Luan Douluo.
He immediately instructed, "Third, you go tell Old Sixth and the others. Seven days... maximize the results!"
"Yes!"
Qing Luan Douluo nodded and immediately dashed out of the hall.
"Thank you, Grandfather."
Qian Renjue didn't say much and lowered his head again.
He, of course, knew the real culprit.
He also knew that the Clear Sky Sect would become a force to destroy the Martial Soul Hall in the future.
Qian Renjue didn't want to be a do-gooder. He just didn't want to see the people he cherished disappear again.
He tried to use this excuse to eliminate potential problems.
But the outcome… Qian Renjue could already anticipate it.
After all…
The righteous cause presented to the outside world…
Was nothing more than a hatchet job personally orchestrated by Qian Daoliu.
The Clear Sky Sect was the scapegoat. Qian Daoliu knew this best.
Perhaps out of guilt, or perhaps because of the promise back then… That was how the Clear Sky Sect got a chance to recuperate.
His request.
Perhaps it couldn't completely finish off the Clear Sky Sect.
But it could magnify their losses.
Qian Renjue didn't have time to think about these things. Instead, he frantically searched for the Soul-Snatching Pearl he had prepared for Qian Xunjie.
He kept examining the Blood Jade Ring, the candy, and the bells, all covered in cracks!
Only the Soul-Snatching Pearl was missing.
The Soul-Snatching Pearl embedded in the mother bell had vanished without a trace.
"Grandfather!"
Qian Renjue's voice was tinged with anxiety.
"Jue, what's wrong?"
Qian Renxue looked at Qian Renjue, who was suddenly flustered, with a bewildered expression.
"Sister... I'm fine."
Cling!
Qian Renjue picked up the bell, producing a faint sound.
He asked Qian Daoliu: "Grandfather, are all of Father's things here?"
"Xiao Jue, they are all here."
Qian Daoliu nodded slowly.
"All here..."
Qian Renjue murmured, kneeling upright on the ground, silent.
Doubt still lingered in his heart. Qian Renxue gently grasped Qian Renjue's hand.
Their fingers intertwined.
Qian Daoliu looked at the kneeling siblings.
He spoke softly, trying to persuade them:
"Xue'er, Jue'er, get up and go back first. Wait until everything is arranged, and then Grandpa will let you know."
Qian Renxue shook her head gently.
Her voice was hoarse.
"Grandpa, let us stay with Dad a little longer. He likes us to be with him."
"Alright."
Qian Daoliu sighed helplessly.
Looking at the son in the coffin.
He was filled with self-blame. If he had known this would happen, he should have spoken to him properly.
Slowly,
there wasn't a sound in the great hall.
A long time passed before Qian Renxue and Qian Renjue helped each other.
They walked out of the Worship Hall.
Both of them looked much more haggard.
Qian Renjue raised his eyes to look at the scorching sun in the sky, then turned to Qian Renxue beside him.
He whispered: "Sister, accompany me down the mountain, okay?"
"I'm going to get something."
Qian Renxue gently embraced Qian Renjue and nodded slightly in agreement.
"Okay, I'll go with you, Sister."
They had been kneeling for a long time.
It made it difficult for the siblings to walk, so they wobbled as they headed down the mountain.
"Elder Brother, Xiao Xue and the others are going down the mountain."
In the Worship Hall, Mighty Lion Douluo reported to Qian Daoliu.
"Go, bid them a proper farewell."
Qian Daoliu's voice was hoarse, unable to forgive Bibi Dong for the time being.
In Bibi Dong's courtyard.
After Qian Daoliu left, Bibi Dong quickly got up.
She tidied herself up meticulously.
Burying herself in the kitchen, she made the pastries that Qian Renxue and the others usually loved.
After finishing with precision and arranging them neatly, a lost smile appeared on her face.
She sat quietly under the pavilion, waiting silently.
Time slipped away.
The sun outside was shining brightly.
However, Bibi Dong felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her hands and feet freezing.
Her tear ducts were out of control, and tears streamed down her face.
Like a walking corpse, she staggered towards the path down the mountain that she had to take.
Standing in the shadows. Unmoving, she gazed at the distant hillside, as if she had forgotten the passage of time.
It wasn't until she saw two familiar figures.
Seeing those haggard faces.
Bibi Dong trembled, almost wanting to rush forward, but she suppressed the urge with all her might.
She sobbed softly.
Dare not let them discover her.
Secretly following behind them.
The unsteady figures of the siblings as they stumbled along, always causing her heart to ache.
Her footsteps were silent. She followed all the way to the Papal Palace, the place where she had personally killed Qian Xunjie.
Bibi Dong immediately stopped.
Her face turned pale …
In the secret chamber.
Qian Renxue stood beside the cold bed stained with blood.
His heart ached, his eyes vacant.
Qian Renjue's swollen eyes carefully surveyed the entire secret chamber.
Where was the Soul-Snatching Pearl?
Why didn't Qian Xunjie use the Void Concealment Candy?
The door to the secret chamber let in a sliver of light.
Suddenly, a slender figure was drawn out, casting a shadow on the ground.
I wish everyone a happy life!
