Mo Xin's face changed, and her eyes quivered slightly. "What did you say?" she asked.
Su Xiaoliu was extremely uneasy. She pointed in the direction where the figure had run off and said, "I saw that person running in that direction with my own eyes."
Mo Xin pursed her lips, grabbed Su Xiaoliu's hand, and trotted in that direction.
"Let's go," she said.
Su Xiaoliu followed closely behind Mo Xin. Under the night sky, the moonlight was hazy, and the evening breeze was cool.
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of them. It was very hazy and then suddenly hid not far away. Su Xiaoliu accidentally kicked something on the ground and bent down.
She picked up the thing on the ground and was instantly stunned.
It was a butterfly hairpin. The butterfly's wings trembled slightly in the moonlight, and the delicate hairpin still carried a faint fragrance.
Mo Xin turned back to look at Su Xiaoliu. When her gaze fell on the butterfly hairpin in Su Xiaoliu's hand, her eyes trembled. She whispered, "Yun Ruo..."
Su Xiaoliu suddenly widened her almond-shaped eyes. She looked at Mo Xin, then lowered her head to look at the butterfly hairpin in her hand, and shook her head. "Madam Xiao, isn't Yun Ruo dead..." she said.
Mo Xin stopped in a daze. She stared blankly in the direction where the white figure had disappeared and softly said, "I'm not mistaken. That was Yun Ruo..."
Yun Ruo wasn't dead?
Su Xiaoliu didn't know whether to be happy or shocked for a moment. Suddenly, Mo Xin pulled her and ran in that direction.
Mo Xin pulled her to a cliff. She stretched out her slender fingers and gently stroked the uneven rocks on the cliff wall.
"I remember there's a hidden door here..." Mo Xin murmured.
Su Xiaoliu's gaze followed her hand. Suddenly, her hand stopped, and then she gently pressed down. A perfectly square rock block sank inward. When it sank to a certain extent, a dark cave was revealed in front of the two of them.
Su Xiaoliu widened her almond-shaped eyes. She didn't expect there to be such a place in the Valley of Ten Thousand Witherings.
Mo Xin led her in. A glimmer of light soon appeared in the dark cave.
After walking for a while, they suddenly came to a stone cave.
There were candle lamps hanging on the stone walls here. There was a painting on the stone table in front. Suddenly, Su Xiaoliu remembered that she had been to this place before, and it was Feng Yufei who had brought her in!
Thinking of Feng Yufei, Su Xiaoliu pursed her lips and tried not to think about him.
Mo Xin walked to the stone table and turned to look at Su Xiaoliu.
Su Xiaoliu looked up at the surroundings. It hadn't changed at all.
"Madam Xiao, why did we come here?" Su Xiaoliu lowered her head to look at Mo Xin and asked.
Mo Xin lowered her eyes and softly said, "Xiaoliu, do you remember what I told you about Xiao He?"
Su Xiaoliu was a little confused. Why was this being mentioned? But she still nodded and said, "I remember."
Mo Xin raised her eyes, glanced at Su Xiaoliu, and said, "Xiao He died in the Soul-Shattering Langya. I still don't know who killed him until now."
Su Xiaoliu stared blankly at her and said, "Wasn't it the Hundred Families?"
Mo Xin didn't answer but lowered her eyes. After a while, she sighed and said, "Then, Yun Ruo went to the Soul-Shattering Langya to find out who killed Xiao He, but she was pushed off the cliff..." After a moment, she looked up at Su Xiaoliu. "Yun Ruo had saved countless people, but she couldn't save herself. By the time I found her, she was already dead."
Yun Ruo was dead? But just now...
Su Xiaoliu widened her almond-shaped eyes and stared blankly at Mo Xin.
Mo Xin walked to the stone table and unfurled the painting. As the scroll spread out, Su Xiaoliu looked down and was instantly stunned.
She had seen the woman in the painting.
The paper depicted an extremely beautiful woman. She was graceful, wearing a white silk dress. Her eyebrows were as black as ink, and her bright eyes were full of charm. She was holding a pear blossom branch, looking thoughtful. Her long black hair was gently pulled up and fixed with a beautiful butterfly hairpin. Her temples were fragrant, and she looked elegant and refined...
Su Xiaoliu lowered her head to look at the butterfly hairpin in her hand, then at the hairpin on the head of the white-clothed woman in the painting. They were exactly the same!
Mo Xin stared quietly at the painting and softly said, "Actually, this is what Yun Ruo really looked like."
Su Xiaoliu looked at Mo Xin in surprise. Yun Ruo... Didn't Yun Ruo look a lot like her?
Mo Xin looked up at Su Xiaoliu, smiled slightly, and softly said, "Yun Ruo usually disguised herself as the deputy valley master. So in people's minds, Yun Ruo had a face very similar to yours."
The deputy valley master? There was a deputy valley master? Who was the deputy valley master? Why did the deputy valley master look so much like her?
A moment later, Su Xiaoliu's mind was filled with doubts. Before the shock of the previous wave had subsided, the next wave of impact hit her again.
Suddenly, a figure slowly walked out of the dark corner.
Su Xiaoliu stared blankly and looked up. When she saw the face of the person coming, her almond-shaped eyes suddenly trembled...
The person in front of her was wearing a flowing white dress. She was dressed exactly the same as Yun Ruo in the painting, and her hairstyle was also the same. Only her beautiful heart-shaped face was astonishingly similar to hers.
"My Xiaoliu, I've come to see you..."
The person coming pursed her lips slightly, and her almond-shaped eyes, full of charm, blinked gently.
Su Xiaoliu moved her lips. She stared at the person walking towards her without blinking and murmured, "Eldest sister..."
Su Lou'er showed a charming smile. Her face, which was extremely similar to Su Xiaoliu's, was filled with endless smiles. She softly said, "It's been so many years. My Xiaoliu has grown up."
Su Xiaoliu ran over and hugged Su Lou'er tightly. She bit her lips and said, "Eldest sister, eldest sister, I've finally found you..."
Her second sister had said that her eldest sister and her eldest brother-in-law had gone into the martial arts world. She thought she would never see her again in this lifetime...
Su Lou'er reached out and hugged Su Xiaoliu tightly. Her long eyelashes drooped, and her face was full of love. "Xiaoliu..." she said.
After a while, Su Xiaoliu straightened up. She looked back at Mo Xin, then looked up at Su Lou'er, and asked in confusion, "Eldest sister, why are you the deputy valley master of the Valley of Ten Thousand Witherings?"
Su Lou'er stretched out her slender fingers and tidied up Su Xiaoliu's slightly messy collar. She softly said, "A few years ago, I met Mo Xin, and then I've been here ever since."
So eldest sister also knew Feng Yufei? Su Xiaoliu really wanted to ask this question, but she swallowed it back.
Suddenly, Su Xiaoliu remembered something. She looked at Su Lou'er's white dress and asked, "Eldest sister, why are you dressed like Yun Ruo?"
Su Lou'er lowered her eyes, smiled slightly, and said, "There are many things you have to find out slowly."
What did this mean?
Su Xiaoliu frowned slightly. She didn't understand what her eldest sister meant.
After a moment, Su Xiaoliu suddenly looked up at Su Lou'er and said, "Eldest sister, where's brother-in-law?"
She had never seen her brother-in-law before. She only knew that he was a tofu seller.
Su Lou'er looked up at Mo Xin. Mo Xin turned around and pressed the stone behind her again. Suddenly, another door appeared in the originally narrow cave.
