When Yunluotian spoke of these things, her eyes were filled with pain. The pain of being forced to act against her will, the pain of helplessness. Although Yue Chen didn't kill her and even pretended to keep her title of a supreme deity, how could those hatreds vanish because of a hungry wolf's momentary pity?
Ji Yunxi felt heartache after hearing her story and her eyes were already red.
Yunluotian came to Yunqi Palace at a very young age. She was doted on by all the senior brothers and sisters. However, no one expected that she had suffered so much in places they couldn't see.
And the root cause of all this was Yue Chen.
Yunluotian saw what was on Ji Yunxi's mind and smiled. "It's okay. I'm fine now. Sister, don't look like this."
Ji Yunxi still felt sour. She reached out and patted Yunluotian's hand.
Yunluotian held her hand back to comfort her. "I'm really okay. It's all in the past. And during these years in Yuehua Palace, I had no choice but to secretly train hard, which is why I have the divine power I have today. Although I didn't get to be buried with the senior brothers and sisters, I managed to survive and met you, sister. Isn't this a blessing in disguise?"
Ji Yunxi felt very gratified. The little junior sister who used to rely on others had grown up.
She didn't complain about her fate. Instead, she found a way out in a desperate situation and was even able to protect herself.
"You're right. Our little junior sister has always been the most amazing one."
Feng Heyang watched as the two sisters got along so well. He deliberately came out to spoil the mood and interrupted their reminiscing. "I've tried to contact the other old troops, but almost all the people from Fengche Palace that I could reach have been taken by Feng Xingzhi and Jiang Yaoji."
"This is bad. If we can't contact others, it will be very difficult for us to shake Yue Chen if we fight against him alone." Ji Yunxi frowned and asked Yunluotian. "Junior sister, can we contact the old troops of Yunqi Palace now?"
"It's not difficult." Yunluotian nodded. "I know where they are approximately, but I haven't contacted them."
She lowered her head, as if there was something hard to say.
"You know where they are? Why didn't you say so?"
"I definitely can't say. Everyone around me is a lackey of Yuehua Palace. If Yue Chen finds out, he will surely kill them all."
Yunluotian knew Yue Chen very well. Over the years, as long as he knew where the people from the two palaces were, he would try to recruit them. If anyone refused, he would simply kill them.
Yunluotian knew that she was in a dangerous situation, but she would never reveal what she knew!
"One more thing." Feng Heyang added for her. "Although it's inconvenient for you to contact them in Yuehua Palace, the old troops of Yunqi Palace won't trust you either. In their eyes, you're a traitor."
Yunluotian was stunned for a moment. She was very unhappy because of this sentence.
Ji Yunxi reached out and held her hand. "Stop talking about this. Since it's like this, it's decided. After we save Emperor Feng Ji, we'll set off to try to contact the people from Yunqi Palace."
"Yeah, Ji Yunxi is right. The most important thing now is to recover from the injury. We'll talk about other things later."
After Feng Heyang left, Yunluotian said with a tangled look on her face. "Sister, I'll definitely go with you then."
Ji Yunxi frowned slightly. She wasn't worried that Yunluotian would hold her back, but that the old troops of Yunqi Palace, not knowing the truth, would be hostile to Yunluotian.
After all, during the years in Yuehua Palace, even though Yunluotian had done many things for Yuehua Palace out of necessity, otherwise it would have been very difficult for her to move relatively freely under Yue Chen.
She saw Ji Yunxi's hesitation and smiled sadly. "It's okay, sister. Just take me with you. Some things need to be explained to them. I can hide for a while, but not for a lifetime. And they're all my senior brothers and sisters. Even if they beat or scold me, I deserve it."
"Don't talk nonsense. You're our most beloved little junior sister. How could we bear to do anything to you?" Ji Yunxi stroked her face. "You've suffered a lot these years, haven't you? Okay! We'll go together then."
With the care of the people around her and the tonics that Feng Heyang sent every day, Ji Yunxi had recovered quite well. However, every time she saw herself in the mirror, she couldn't ignore the lingering sorrow in her eyebrows.
In the past few days, she had gradually calmed down and thought about what had happened in the past few days. She thought that, in the end, it was all her fault for not being firm enough at that time.
But would giving up the life of the Lu Shu be what she wanted?
It didn't seem to make sense either.
She felt even more uncomfortable. Every time she saw the moon in the sky, when everyone could be reunited, but she was stabbed by her beloved one. How ironic!
Yunluotian walked into the room with the medicinal soup in her hand and saw Ji Yunxi looking sad.
She knew that Ji Yunxi must not have let go of what had happened before. Feng Xingzhi was like a thorn. It would be too painful to pull it out, but it also made her heart ache.
"Are you thinking about that heartless man again?" Yunluotian said angrily as she put the things on the table. "I said, sister, don't think about him anymore. He's not the person you want to see now."
"Luor'er..." Ji Yunxi knew that she was resentful because of her injury. "Don't talk like this. Azhi just... just doesn't remember."
"Yeah, he doesn't remember you anymore. So he's not your Azhi. I think, sister, you might as well just think that he's gone on a long journey and hasn't come back yet. So the one now is fake!"
Ji Yunxi raised her eyebrows slightly. She felt helpless and wanted to laugh a little. But on second thought, what Yunluotian said wasn't completely unreasonable. After all, if she faced Feng Xingzhi again in the future, it would be very difficult for her not to be affected. But if she thought that the person was fake from the bottom of her heart, she might be able to accomplish something.
Yunluotian saw that there was no longer a dull look in her eyes and smiled satisfactorily. "That's right. What can defeat my most amazing sister!"
"You're so glib." Ji Yunxi reached out to take the medicinal soup and drank it calmly.
"You've been looking so preoccupied these days. It makes me so anxious!" Yunluotian complained in a low voice.
Ji Yunxi felt guilty. "I'm really sorry to make you worry. But I'm not just thinking about Azhi. I'm also thinking about Li Jiuge and Second Brother."
This problem couldn't be solved for the time being. According to Feng Heyang's news, these two people had been taken to the Jiang family. Their life or death was still unknown.
Yunluotian knew that Ji Yunxi had been reincarnated, so she couldn't be as carefree as Feng Yunxi. After all, Ji Yunyi was the older brother of her current body. She couldn't just leave him alone. So she could only comfort her. "Sister, they should be okay. After all, Li Jiuge is Feng Xingzhi's younger sister. Even if Jiang Yaoji wants to please Feng Xingzhi, she won't hurt her."
