Chapter 2031 Fog of Mysteries

A few minutes later, Yun Lintian calmed himself down. It wasn't the first time he'd regretted his decision. Had he personally taken Nantian Yu out of the city, she would probably still be alive. However, it had already happened. There was nothing he could do now.

Yun Lintian looked at Nantian Fengyu in his arms and asked softly, "Did you see it, Fifth Sister?"

"Mhm," Nantian Fengyu replied gently. "I could feel her emotions and thoughts. In fact, she had lost the will to live for a long time. Her trip to the Nine Firmament City was her last chance to enjoy the world."

Yun Lintian fell silent. He had, in fact, sensed a deep depression in Nantian Yu's heart during their time together. The impending marriage between her and Jin Yang was like the final nail in the coffin. Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

"It's alright now," Nantian Fengyu said softly. "She's finally free."

Yun Lintian gripped Nantian Fengyu's shoulders and looked directly into her eyes. "Can you promise me something, Fifth Sister? You must not give up on yourself like her, no matter what happens in the future."

Nantian Fengyu's eyes flickered slightly as she replied, "I promise you."

Yun Lintian slowly nodded. "Remember that."

Nantian Fengyu smiled but said nothing further.

After giving them some time, Lin Yitong asked, "What happened?"

Yun Lintian turned to face everyone and began recounting the situation.

The expressions of Lin Yitong and the others turned grave upon hearing this.

"The God of Death..." Yun Yi frowned deeply. "Did he truly initiate it?"

Lin Yitong gave Yun Lintian a long look and asked, "What's your take?"

"However, we can't rule out the God of Death's involvement," Lin Yitong continued. "Frankly, the information we have is negligible. It only confirms that the city's destruction involved someone wielding the Great Law of Death."

Everyone murmured their agreement.

"Now, the key questions are: who brought the city here? More precisely, who established the Kunlun Realm? Was it Huang Yiming himself or someone else? And why wasn't this place cleaned up?" Lin Yitong said, furrowing her brow.

Yun Lintian's mind flashed back to the silhouettes he had seen earlier. If anyone brought the Kunlun Realm to the Nine Heavens Realms, it had to be them... Who were they?

"Do you think this is your father's arrangement?" Long Qingxuan asked Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian shook his head firmly. "No doubt it is. But I don't understand why he wanted me to see this, or the whole time travel situation for that matter."

Yun Lintian couldn't decipher his father's purpose in sending him here. What message was he trying to convey?

"Let's move on," Lin Yitong declared, exiting the inn.

Everyone exchanged brief glances before following her out.

"So many lives lost here," Yu Xinlan muttered, frowning at the mountains of skeletons before her.

A rough estimate revealed over five hundred thousand skeletons just in this area, not including those she'd seen on the way. This part of the city alone must have housed at least two million people.

"They seem to have perished before the battle even began," Huo Jinyang observed, examining the various rusted weapons scattered on the ground. It was clear these people hadn't even had a chance to fight.

Meanwhile, Lin Feng didn't say anything. His eyes firmly fixated on the majestic tower in front of him...
