Chapter 275 The Entire Family Wiped Out
"It's there, it's nothing... What did you say?"
Ji Mingbao instantly regained his senses; he frowned slightly.
"When did this happen?"
"Just now?"
Ji Mingbao's mind raced, and he lay down again.
“It’s not my style to come knocking in the middle of the night, Ji Er. Don’t be alarmed. You’ll come with me to Hanxi Auction House tomorrow morning.”
Ji Er could hardly believe what he was hearing. "Sir, aren't you worried? I didn't see him last time."
He yawned.
"What's the rush? It's not like we're running away overnight. And it's not like you can just run into them right now. It's a waste of time."
Ji Er: "......."
That makes so much sense, he couldn't even refute it.
"Get some rest. The academy competition is already a lot of things to do, and now you're disturbing my sleep in the middle of the night."
Ji Er: "......."
.............
Hongyun Inn is located near the north gate of the city. It can hardly be called an inn; it's just a two-story bamboo building with a sign that reads "Hongyun" (meaning "Good Fortune").
The strong smell of blood was washed away by the heavy rain, leaving only a faint odor.
Feng Siyue had a bad feeling.
Upon entering, the chaotic and devastated interior, with its countless cold corpses scattered on the floor, left Yan Nanfei momentarily stunned.
As she watched this scene unfold, her heart ached, and tears welled up in her eyes. "Old Chen... Xiaohua... Ge De..."
Yan Nanfei trembled and stumbled to her knees before them, tears blurring her vision.
She grabbed the arm of an elderly man in black and cried, "Old Chen, didn't you say everything would be alright? I've brought reinforcements, please wake up!"
The old man had a peaceful face, but the whip marks all over his body spoke of what he had experienced in his life.
Beside him lay a little girl in pink, her delicate and lovely face covered in blood, a long knife wound running through her face, which looked horrifying!
Her hands trembled as she slowly touched the scar on the girl's face. "Little Flower, are you asleep? Wake up, your sister is back..."
"Little Flower... ah... ah..."
Yan Nanfei wept bitterly!
Such a long wound must hurt so much!
She crawled to an elderly couple, her voice hoarse, "Grandpa...Grandma...wake up..."
"I am back."
No matter how she called out, the person who had cared for her like a family member these past few days would never wake up again!
Feng Siyue felt a little reluctant.
"The wild geese fly south; they are already dead."
Their very existence was extinguished; their entire family was wiped out.
But Yan Nanfei stubbornly refused to believe it, "No, no! Elder Chen is a Spirit Sect cultivator, he promised he could hold out until I come back, they won't die!"
Yan Nanfei's eyes were bloodshot; he had clearly lost his mind.
Her eyes were bloodshot, and her desperate expression resembled that of a trapped beast!
Feng Siyue sighed and repeated, "Yan Nanfei, they are dead."
"impossible!"
Yan Nanfei roared angrily!
She refused to believe it and checked each pulse one by one, but the fact that the pulses had stopped beating struck Yan Nanfei like a heavy blow.
cold.....
Dizziness kept assaulting his brain, and Yan Nanfei swallowed hard, feeling a sharp pain in his chest!
died.
are dead.
"why?"
"Why exactly?"
"What did they do wrong?!"
Yan Nanfei collapsed to the ground, her swollen eyes filled with pain, anger, and despair, almost to the point of madness!
She questioned herself! She questioned God! And she questioned those who lived in her memory!
"Why? Why am I being falsely accused when I didn't do it?! Why won't you leave me alone even though Heaven has forgiven me?"
"Why should I leave my hometown and have those around me suffer as a result? Why?!"
The girl screamed in despair, each word dripping with blood, like a lone wolf that had lost its pack.
Old Chen... Little Flower...
Their innocent and beautiful smiles flashed through Yan Nanfei's mind. Compared to their lifeless corpses, these memories were like scissors stabbing her, drawing blood.
It felt like my heart had been ripped apart!
why?
Just because she's easy to bully, does that mean anyone can take advantage of her?
But what did Old Chen and the others do wrong?
What did they do wrong?!
Yan Nanfei's face gradually turned deathly still. She sat on the floor for a long time before finally speaking, "Miss Chu, why do you think people change?"
"To cover up the fact that he had secretly practiced martial arts, he was willing to frame his friend and even risk the entire city to set up a trap."
Feng Siyue asked, "Are you talking about Yan Xue'er?"
"Yan Xue'er..."
Upon hearing that name again, Yan Nanfei felt as if he were in another world, and at the same time, he laughed mockingly.
"Yes...me, my best friend."
She seemed lost in memories, "I thought we would be best friends for life. During our time at the college, we were inseparable, sharing rooms and sleeping together."
“Every time the college was on break, she would stay with me to take care of my mother, buy me expensive medicine... refute the rumors against me... and stand up for me in fights…”
"Back then, I really thought we would be best friends for life."
"But everything changed after I accidentally discovered that she was secretly practicing the Yan family's top-level martial arts technique."
A mist settled over Yan Nanfei's eyes.
The midday sun was scorching, casting dappled shadows through the treetops.
By the pond, under the willow tree.
The girl in the white dress grasped her friend's hand and pleaded, "Nanfei, please don't tell my father about this, okay? He'll beat me!"
