Gu Liuyan was baffled when he heard this.

What burden?

Yun Dian's expression changed, while Ah Zi also came over to pull Gu Poyan out, "Your words are simple, if we hadn't done this, when you slandered the Yun Family that year, the Yun Family would have already lost their lives along with us. As long as Miss can take over, we still have a chance to breathe."

When he mentioned the past, Duan Cheng Xuan had no choice but to admit that he was blinded by lard.

Yun Xiao looked at him helplessly. "You don't know why there is such an excuse for a disjointed set of rules?"

"I have already investigated the things that you have sent to me." "That is only the wish that the ancestors of the Yun and Duan Clans gave to the later generations. Now, you've called Yan'Er and me back and said that you're loyal to us. Don't tell me that you want Yan'er to take over your burden now, to take over this Blackwater Town?"

Yun Tong's expression became increasingly ugly.

Gu Danyan still hadn't figured it out, but Duan Chengxuan had already grabbed her wrist and pulled his into his embrace. He said in a low voice, "Yan'Er, do you know why when the Yun Family descendents died, none of them entered the Royal Tomb?"

It was just a simple sentence, but Gu Pingyan was completely able to react to it.

She looked at Yun Dian in disbelief, "It's not because of the witch, but because those people have all taken over Blackwater Town. Regardless of whether the next generation's emperor is his own son or not, he must be loyal to her."

As a result, those Yun Family descendants had never died, and had been protected by the Navy Tide Imperial Family for generations.

It was to personally train the emperor's death soldiers in this filthy place.

If that was the case …

"So, those Yun clan members outside are actually all hostages of the Emperor. "With the Yun clan outside, all those women who have no choice but to die must live in seclusion here to build an army of the Emperor's deathsworn." Gu Liuyan's expression turned ugly: "So that means the Zhu siblings know about this place, but the reason why others can't find it …"

"Yes, because the Zhu Family is one with our Yun Family, it's laughable that they didn't inherit this disgusting responsibility, and even tried to get some medicine from you." The Lady Boss sneered and picked up her pipe again. "We will always receive some condemned criminals or notorious martial artists. The Yun family's poison can control them very well."

"In this world, there are no big families that are clean."

At this moment, Yun Wan was standing calmly in front of Gu Daiyan.

Gu Mingyan shrunk her neck, feeling a chill run down her spine, as if she had thought of something, and probed: "That time, did father sense this as well, that's why he approached you. That's why Duan Cong didn't believe you would be loyal, that's why she ended the two families' trade here."

The expressions of Yun Dian and Duan Chengxuan both changed.

It seemed like she had guessed right.

Previously, she did not know about the grudge between Yun Mu and Qu Li. However, the two of them tactfully did not mention this matter in front of her.

"If that's the case, then I'm willing to accept this mess. I've saved so many people, but now, it's only the loss of a few villains' lives. Even if Prince Yan were to avenge me, it would still be worth it."

Yun Xiao was stunned, he had never thought that these words would come out of Gu Liuyan's mouth.

In her mind, this daughter was always kind.

But now, the viciousness in Gu Liuyan's eyes was not a lie. The unyielding and tenacious in his bones was revealed.

"It's just a small matter. Why must mother be so serious?"

She smiled lightly as she came forward to greet her mother. After stroking her mother's neck for a while, she said with a low laugh, "It is already a great fortune for me that mother is still alive. Back then, I was able to escape this place.

The mother and daughter were speechless for a while. Yun Wan's eyes were red as she gently patted Gu Pingyan's back.

"However, I am also willing to swear my allegiance to King Jing." Gu Danyan's voice fell into Yun Dian's ears, "But at the same time, he must ensure that you listen to the Wind Pavilion and the rest of your clansmen retreat."

Duan Chengxuan had clearly heard these words as well. "Even if I don't use your loyalty …"

"There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Whatever you owe me, you must return it all to me one day. Now that I've come to you for help, it's not inappropriate for me to be loyal to you." Gu Danyan let go of Yun Qi's embrace and turned around to smile lightly at Duan Chengxuan. "Now, could it be that you still want to treat me as an ordinary girl to love and pity?"

"As you wish." Duan Chengxuan followed and laughed as well. He turned his head to look at Yun Que and asked, "What exactly is it that you want to show me?"

The Lady Boss gaped at the two of them.

This was obviously a huge matter, but why did it become a matter that was easy to settle in the eyes of Gu Daiyan and Duan Chengxuan?

Compared to the astonishment of the few of them, Duan Cheng Xuan had long since gotten used to this.

Gu Mingyan found the key point, and quickly measured what she thought was the most important. In the end, she decided on the big picture — she had never considered her feelings.

This was something that Duan Chengxuan liked.

"I want to take you guys to see something. After a few more days, it will no longer be there." Yun Wan finally reacted and just let Gu Pingyan hold his arm and walk forward.

Cheng Shan brought his men upstairs to rest, while Zi and the Lady Boss told people not to follow without permission.

Yun Que brought them into the carriage, and another old man who was over a hundred years old drove the carriage without saying a word.

"I have to walk this road for a long time." Yun Wan reminded as such. He squeezed Gu Daiyan's hand that was already ice-cold, but when they continued to move upwards, it was dodged by Gu Daiyan. She smiled and leaned into Duan Chengxuan's embrace: "He's warm."

It was too obvious that he didn't want him to know the condition of her body, so Yun Dian glanced sideways at Duan Chengxuan and didn't force him.

The carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain at dawn of the next day.

After climbing up the mountain for four hours, Gu Danyan finally discovered that there was a small mechanism here. Yun Dian took out the key and opened the stone door, letting out a loud noise.

What he saw was a huge dome, with mottled paintings on it.

As for Gu Daiyan, her pupils contracted until her gaze landed on the stone carving in the middle. It was a bust of a woman dressed in gauze. In her hands was a thick and ancient scroll.

"So that's how it is …"

Under the astonished gazes of the two people, Gu Danyan moved closer and stood under the dome. Surrounding her were the candle flames. The color drawing on the dome was something that should not have appeared here at all — Angel.

White wings and white pigeons with olive branches, but carved into the pillars were the Chinese of her time.

"So I'm not the only one here." She stopped in front of the woman's stone carving and looked down at the platform. There was a simple Chinese character engraved on it. "The dragon vein is lower, the positive water will form the boundary."
