Yue Ge knew what happened. A fire was burning in his silver eyes.
No one knew where the young man came from, but they never dared to offend him. How dare she do this kind of thing.
Although she didn’t know what happened…
But her actions…
“Yue Rou, come over.”
Yue Rou was brought over. She gritted her teeth and looked at Yue Ge stubbornly.
There was no emotions in Yue Ge’s eyes. “Apologize to Lord.”
“No!”
She didn’t do anything wrong. Why must she apologize?
She sobbed. “Brother, your promised Father. Why are you helping outsiders now!”
What lord was this!
She never heard about this person before!
Yue Ge’s frowned. He wished that he could stuff Yue Rou back into her mother’s womb.
Yue Ge grabbed Yue Rou and pressed her down.
Yue Rou’s legs gave way and she kneeled down.
“Brother… wu…”
Yue Rou couldn’t say anything and couldn’t get up, either. Her eyes turned red.
Yue Ge replied, “Please spare her.”
Ming Shu looked at the furious Yue Rou. “What is the matter?”
Yue Ge replied, “Something happened to the Apocalypse Pagoda.”
Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. There was a glint in her eyes.
…
After Ming Shu and Qi Yu got into the horse carriage, Yue Ge looked at Yue Rou and said, “Bring her back. Don’t let her leave the Yue family estate again.”
“Yes.”
“Wu…” Yue Rou tried to resist.
Yue Ge ignored her. He called his snow lion and left with the horse carriage.
The people inside the Apocalypse Pagoda had escaped. They were killing all the people outside. There were many casualties.
When Ming Shu arrived, the people at the plaza had retreated far away from the Apocalypse Pagoda.
Ming Shu sent Qi Yu back to the tent first.
Dan Jing came to welcome Ming Shu. “Lord.”
Ming Shu nodded. She walked out. “What is the situation?”
Dan Jing immediately told her what happened after she left.
Another group of people entered. This time, they stayed inside for a longer period of time.
These people never appeared. Instead, some strangers came out of the pagoda.
At first, two people came out of the pagoda. They attacked several people.
In the beginning, they didn’t know that these people came from the Apocalypse Pagoda. They thought that someone else sent them in.
However, on the second day, three more people came out of the pagoda. They heard the three people saying that they came from the Apocalypse Pagoda and they finally managed to see the sky again…
The people that escaped from the Apocalypse Pagoda killed everyone they saw to vent their frustration.
They managed to subdue these people, but that was because they outnumbered them.
If it was a one-on-one battle, they were not their match.
Dan Jing asked Ming Shu carefully, “Lord… inside the Apocalypse Pagoda…” What exactly happened?
“King, Family Lord Long and the king of Lie Yang Country wish to see you.”
Before Ming Shu could reply, someone shouted.
Dan Jing’s expression changed.
These two people came for Lord.
“Lord…”
Ming Shu remained silent for a moment before saying, “Let them in.”
She had to meet them sooner or later.
Family Lord Long and the king of Lie Yang Country came in together. Their gazes landed on the lady sitting in the chair. They were amazed by her beauty.
However, she looked a little young.
Of course…
This was just her appearance.
A childish-looking person here might be more than a thousand years old.
They couldn’t judge a person by their appearance.
Family Lord Long placed his hands together and bowed. “Lord of Thousand Mirror Mountain.”
The king of Lie Yang Country also greeted, “Lord of Thousand Mirror Mountain.”
Ming Shu smiled. “Only the royal family of Liyang calls me that. You all don’t have to call me lord.”
The two of them looked at Dan Jing. Dan Jing felt proud for some reason.
The king of Lie Yang Country asked, “How should we address you?”
Dan Jing replied, “You all can address her as Your Excellency.”
This was an address used by all the countries in the Thousand Mirror World…
The king of Lie Yang Country looked at Family Lord Long.
They wanted to know what the lady was called, but sly old fox Dan Jing didn’t introduce her at all.
Dan Jing was the host so he asked them to have a seat.
As a king, Dan Jing sat below the lady. Hence, the two of them didn’t care about where they sat.
Family Lord Long said, “Your Excellency, I’m sure that you have heard about what happened. You were the only one who entered the Apocalypse Pagoda and made it out alive. May I know what is inside the Apocalypse Pagoda?”
All the people they sent in were dead.
The people that escaped from the pagoda couldn’t give them much help.
Ming Shu tapped her fingers on the table. “There are many things inside the Apocalypse Pagoda.”
Mountains and beauties.
Ambition and power.
Family Lord Long: “…”
This was the same as not replying to him.
“Where did those people inside the Apocalypse Pagoda come from?” the king of Lie Yang Country asked. “Some of their clothes are weird. Even their cultivation seemed strange.”
It was entirely different from the cultivation on this planet. Yet, they were extremely powerful.
Because of this, they let down their guard when fighting against them the first time. This caused many casualties.
“The Apocalypse Pagoda… didn’t your ancestors tell you?” Ming Shu smiled.
Family Lord Long and the king of Lie Yang Country were stunned. Did their ancestors know what happened?
They had never heard anything about it.
“Your ancestors were the people that caused the Xuanzi Continent to split into three continents. Why were they able to fight with the powerful Liyang royal family at that time and become rulers on their own?”
Dan Jing’s expression didn’t seem good.
The king of Lie Yang Country said, “Are you referring to the Battle at Spirit Water?”
They knew about the Battle at Spirit Water. That was the battle that formed the three continents.
However, they didn’t know the details of the battle.
Why did this battle happen?
What was the process like?
The hidden history was being uncovered.
Family Lord Long frowned. “Your Excellency, please be direct.”
Ming Shu replied, “Why don’t you ask your ancestors who are still alive?”
Family Lord Long: “…”
The king of Lie Yang Country: “…”
Family Lord Long went back to the main topic. “Your Excellency, do you know why the people from the Apocalypse Pagoda were able to escape?”
“No. The Apocalypse Pagoda isn’t mine.” Ming Shu smiled gently.
Family Lord Long and the king of Lie Yang Country gritted their teeth.
From her tone, they knew that she was not going to tell them anything. Her expression depicted this intention too.
Dan Jing looked at the floor. He treated the two people like statues.
He agreed with whatever Lord said.
When they came out of the tent, Family Lord Long sneered. “If Dan Jing didn’t act like this, I would have suspected her identity.”
The king of Lie Yang Country frowned slightly. “The people from the Thousand Mirror Mountain never appeared in front of anyone before. Now… it’s hard to say.”
But, even if they were suspicious, they didn’t show it directly.
What if she was really from the Thousand Mirror Mountain?
The Thousand Mirror Mountain was as famous as the Apocalypse Pagoda. The people there must be powerful.
Most importantly, they held the secret to longevity.
“However, there are some gains today.”
Family Lord Long and the king of Lie Yang Country exchanged glances. They went back to their tent and asked their clansmen about the Battle at Spirit Water.
