295 Concern and Endurance
Xuanyuan Yu would probably never forget how Bai Wan looked when she was brought back by Yun Ran and Mo Beiyuan.
Her body was covered in injuries, and her eyes were dull. She was like a little beast that was abused and could collapse at any moment.
Xuanyuan Yu glared at him angrily. His eyes were bloodshot, like a volcano that could erupt at any moment.
“I was the one who touched her. I loved her first. If you have anything to say, come at me. Bullying her and the child is nothing.”
“You saved them? Pfft! If you hadn’t hidden them, my people would have found them long ago! They wouldn’t have suffered so much!”
Yun Ran would not need to be involved with the Ghost King, Mo Beiyuan.
“Don’t worry, you’ll live. I’ll return everything she suffered tenfold or a hundredfold.”
Xuanyuan Yu suppressed the anger in his body and left the underground prison of the prince’s mansion after saying coldly.
Bai Wan had successfully snatched her spiritual root back. Over the past few days, she had been slowly recovering her spiritual power cultivation.
What she needed to do next was to investigate what happened to the Bai family back then.
As Yun Ran chatted with her, she mentioned the earthquake in the Imperial City in the past few days.
In addition to the news sent back by the secret guards previously, the secret guards had sent back a lot of news in the past few days.
“The epicenter of the earthquake is at the Imperial Mausoleum of the East Continent’s royal family. I heard that the tombs in the Imperial Mausoleum have collapsed. The bones of their ancestors can’t be found now.”
Yun Ran only treated it as a means of passing time.
Unexpectedly, Bai Wan’s expression changed instantly. “Is the Imperial Mausoleum of the East Continent’s royal family in the Longgu Mountain thirty miles away from the Imperial City?”
The Imperial Mausoleum 20 years ago was in that place. Bai Wan was not sure if the Imperial Mausoleum 20 years later would still be in that place.
Yun Ran didn’t know what mountain it was, but seeing that she was in such a hurry, she helped her ask the secret guard who reported the news.
He confirmed that he was talking about the Imperial Mausoleum in Longgu Mountain outside the Imperial City.
“Is there a problem with the Imperial Mausoleum?”
Seeing that her expression was a little abnormal and that she had been frowning, Yun Ran intuitively felt that there should be something wrong with the Imperial Mausoleum.
Bai Wan nodded. “That place hides a secret that concerns the survival of the five countries on the continent. I’m going there to take a look.”
The secret of the survival of the five countries?
That was the Imperial Mausoleum of the East Continent’s royal family. Even if it was destroyed and affected the fate of the continent, it shouldn’t affect the survival of the entire continent! At most, it would affect the existence of the East Continent’s royal family.
However, Bai Wan’s expression was serious. She did not seem to be joking.
Yun Ran planned to accompany her.
The two of them were not going anywhere else but to the tomb of the ancestor of the East Continent’s royal family. Yun Ran felt that she should inform Mo Beiyuan.
Mo Beiyuan’s handsome face had always been expressionless. Even if he was concerned, he was extremely forbearing. His voice was cold and indifferent, without much fluctuation. “Why are you going to the Imperial Mausoleum? There was a serious earthquake there. It’s not safe.”
Yun Ran said, “Bai Wan said that that place hides a big secret that concerns the survival of the five countries. She has to go and take a look. I’m accompanying her there to take a look.”
“The big secret of the five countries?” Even though Mo Beiyuan was usually not a curious person, he raised his eyebrows faintly.
Yun Ran spread her hands. “Don’t ask me. I don’t know what secret it is either. She didn’t tell me.”
