"What's wrong?" Mo Qingchen asked in surprise, two years had passed and Mo Ningrou also gained a bit more composure from her original timidity, it was rare to see her so panicked.

  Mo Ning Rou's lips were pale and bloodless as she stuttered: "Ninth sister... Ninth sister, she... she..."

  Mo Qingchen hastily stomped her foot and said: "What's wrong with Ninth Sister? Fourteenth Sister, calm down."

  "Jiujie killed Shijiu!" Mo Ningruo said, her legs going weak and almost falling down, luckily Mo Qingchen caught her in time.

  Don't joke around, this is on Yunqiao Bridge. If you fall off, it won't be as simple as falling into a soup.

  Mo Qingchen may look calmer than Mo Ningruo on the surface, but in his heart, he is as turbulent as a stormy sea.

  Could it be that Mo Fei actually killed Shi Er?

  In an instant, the beautiful woman in a green dress with a pair of silver flowers on her temples appeared in Mo Qingchen's mind.

  Could it be that the delicate and lovely woman has now become a cold corpse?

  Mo Feiyan's usual icy and snowy demeanor flashed through Mo Qingchen's mind, but the Mo Feiyan who had always been indifferent to worldly affairs and seemed to only care about the Great Dao of Longevity actually killed Tenth Aunt!

  Mo Qingchen only felt that all of this was absurd, as if in a dream, so unreal. But the trembling body of Mo Ningrou in front of her told her that she would never joke about such things.

  In the glow of the electric stone, Mo Qing suddenly thought of that night when she and Hu Tou rode a paper crane in the sky, their minds intoxicated as the paper crane suddenly plummeted downwards, finally coming to rest on a lush big tree.

  It was there that Mo Qingchen overheard a ambiguous conversation, the content of which shocked her.

  From then on, Mo Qingchen decided to seal that memory deep within her heart, and as a result, she chose to selectively forget about it, even after two years had passed.

  At the thought of this, Mo Qingchen's face suddenly turned pale. Could it be that Mo Fei and Ninth Uncle and Tenth Aunt's abnormal love affair had been exposed, and Mo Feiyen had stumbled upon it just in time?

  "Fourteenth sister, why did Ninth sister kill Tenth aunt?" Mo Qingchen asked in a hoarse voice.

  Mo Ning Rou's voice was trembling as if she was about to cry: "I... I don't know, Shige and I were in the room, when we heard the news, Shige immediately used her Wind Control Technique to head over there, my speed is slow, that's why I met you here, Sixteen Sister, let's... go take a look."

  "Go." Mo Qingchen said as he and Mo Ningruo held hands and ran wildly away.

  "Miss, wait for me." Yunzhi shouted as he rushed after her.

  The scene of the incident was in the artificial hill in the backyard. When Mo Qingchen and his two companions arrived, only a few attendants were left to clean up the scene, and the dark red bloodstains could still be faintly seen on the bluestone.

  "What about Ninth Sister?" Mo Ning Rou grabbed a servant and asked in an unseemly manner.

  That attendant was a young man, seeing the normally celestial Fourteenth Young Miss actually grab his sleeve with her hand, he became flustered, his face turned bright red, and for half a day he couldn't utter a word.

  "Fourteenth sister, calm down." Mo Qingchen said loudly, then looked at the attendant and said: "Don't panic, tell us slowly, where did tenth sister go now?"

  Several attendants looked at each other.

  Mo Qingchen said sternly, "You don't have to hide it either. Since we've received the news, it's only a matter of time before this gets out. We're just worried about Ninth Sister, so we want to get to the bottom of this as soon as possible."

  "Miss Jiu... has been taken to the Discipline Hall." said the attendant whose sleeve was pulled by Mo Ning Ruo.

  "What about Auntie Ten?" Mo Qingchen continued to ask.

  "He was also taken to the Training Hall." said another attendant.

  Move away? So, tenth aunt must have died?

  "What exactly happened? Did Ninth Sister really kill Tenth Aunt?" Mo Ning Rou asked urgently.

  At this point, several attendants all shut their mouths and refused to speak.

  Mo Qingchen's mind was clear, and he only looked at the scene of the crime. It was obvious that Ninth Uncle and Tenth Aunt were having an affair when they were caught by Mo Feiyan, who killed Tenth Aunt in a fit of rage.

  Even if a few attendants knew the inside story, they would probably rather die than dare to tell the two young ladies.

  Mo Qingchen pulled Mo Ningrou and said: "Fourteenth sister, I suppose they also know only so much, let's go to the Training Hall to see the situation."

  "Okay, okay." At this moment, Mo Ning Ruo had lost her footing, and she hastily agreed to whatever Mo Qing Chen said.

  Deng Qingchen and the other two were on their way to the Training Hall when they ran into Mo Ran in the middle of the road.

  "Big sister, how are you?" Mo Ning Rou asked hastily upon seeing Mo Ran Yi.

  Mo Ran's eyes flickered towards Mo Qingchen, and he immediately said: "I don't know what's going on either. When I rushed to the Training Hall, the Clan Master and the others were all there, and they drove us out together."

  "What about Ninth Sister and Tenth Aunt?" Mo Qingyu asked again.

  "Shi Shu..." Mo Ran stopped for a moment before continuing, "Shi Shu has already been moved to the mourning hall. As for Mo Yan, she was sent to the Clan Leader's residence to reflect on her actions and is not allowed to take a single step out of the courtyard."

  Mo Ran's expression turned strange at this point.

  "Ah, why is this?" Mo Ning Rou asked in surprise upon hearing of the treatment of Mo Fei Yan.

  Mo Ran shook his head and said, "I don't know. When I rushed over, even the thirteenth aunt and fourteenth uncle were driven out. Only Ninth Uncle's family and a few ancestors are left inside. This matter is probably not that simple. Mo Yan might be in big trouble."

  Mo Ning Rou bit her lip and said: "Could it be, could it be that the Clan Master would execute Ninth Sister? This, this is impossible!"

  The deceased outsider's aunt, Mo Fei Yan with exceptional natural talent, who is lighter and who is heavier, even the little Mo Ning Ruo is extremely clear.

  Mo Ran's clothes were like a smile, but not quite a smile. "Of course not, even if the patriarch would agree, the entire Mo family wouldn't either. Hehe, Mo Feiyan, the Ice Spirit Root, has always been the hope for the revival of the Mo family! However, don't forget that Tenth Aunt is from the Chen family!"

  Mo Qingchen, who had been quietly listening all along, couldn't help but speak up at this point: "The Chen family?"

  Mo Ran looked at Mo Qingchen and let out a cold laugh: "Little Sixteen, you wouldn't be unaware that Tenth Aunt is from the Chen family, would you?"

  Mo Qingchen shook her head. In less than two years, she had devoted almost all her time to cultivation, so how could she have the leisure to care about a widow's background? Moreover, since she had accidentally seen that embarrassing thing, she, who usually avoided trouble, was even more anxious to avoid it.

  "There are four major Xiu Zhen families in Luoyang, namely the Ouyang family, the Hua family, the Chen family, and our Mo family. Tenth Aunt is actually a legitimate daughter of the Chen family, and also has an excellent double spiritual root. It's said that if not for Tenth Uncle spotting her with one glance and using a piece of Yan Zhou flame stone as a betrothal gift, the Chen family would never have married off Tenth Aunt. You know, daughters of the Chen family are treasured very much." Mo Ran Yi said in an odd tone.

  Yan State Flame Stone? Mo Qingchen was shocked upon hearing it, remembering that the day before, Yuan Xiu had mentioned in his detailed explanation that Yan State Flame Stones originated from one of the Eastern Ten Continents, Yan State. It's a fire-attributed rare stone, particularly suitable for inclusion in fire-attributed artifacts, and is a hard-to-come-by material.

  Using the power of the Mo family to use Flame State's Blazing Stone as a betrothal gift is already a huge sincerity.

  Mo Qingchen's heart tightened at this thought, so it seemed that the tenth aunt's status in the Chen family was not low after all?

  It seems that Mo Fei Yan is indeed a big troublemaker, or rather, the Mo family is in big trouble!

  Mo Ning Rou didn't think of that, but upon hearing Mo Ran's words, she said somewhat indignantly: "Is the daughter of the Chen family a treasure or something?"

  "Heh heh, Fourteenth Sister, you were born into the Mo family since childhood, so you shouldn't be unaware that among the four major families, the strongest is actually the Ouyang family. And as for which family is renowned for their beautiful daughters, isn't it the Chen family?" Mo Ran's words were like this, but her expression carried a hint of disdain.

  Mo Qingchen didn't think about these things, but instead asked directly: "If that's the case, since Tenth Uncle was no longer there at the time, why didn't Tenth Aunt return to the Chen family?"

  She couldn't believe that a cultivator would still follow the secular customs of the mortal world, where a woman would remain chaste and loyal to her deceased husband.

  "This is something that many people in the mansion couldn't understand. At that time, it didn't seem like Tenth Aunt and Tenth Uncle had a deep affection for each other. But after Tenth Uncle left, Tenth Aunt refused to leave the Mo family no matter what, even when the master of the Chen family gave his word. She even cut off a lock of her hair and had someone bring it back, saying that she would live and die in the Mo family." Mo Ran couldn't help but say in confusion.

  Mo Qingchen let out a soft sigh, and the truth within this matter was probably only known to her and the few people in the Training Hall.

  That tenth aunt, should I say she's infatuated or shameless?

  The death of the tenth aunt is obviously something that can't be hidden, judging from the clan leader's actions, it seems like they want to cover up the truth, after all, the eldest uncle and his brother's wife have an illicit relationship, which is a shameful thing even for a cultivation family.

  "What about Ninth Sister then? Will the Chen family send someone to ask our Clan Master and Patriarch to punish Ninth Sister?" Mo Qingyu asked worriedly.

  Mo Ran bit her lip and said, "I don't know either, probably will, but what's the big deal? Is Mo Yan a variant of the Ice Spirit Root? They say that the Mo family can keep her safe, but didn't the patriarch just put her in his own courtyard to protect her himself? I don't know what she's thinking, actually killing tenth aunt. Hmph, in the end, the whole Mo family will have to clean up after her!"

  "Ten sister, don't say that, nine sister must have a reason for doing this." Mo Ning said firmly.

  Apart from her mother and siblings, Mo Yan's favorite people in the entire Mo family were Mo Qingchen and Hu Tou, but she admired Mo Feiyan the most.

  "Alright, young one, you don't need to worry about these things at your age. Come with me and focus on your cultivation." Mo Ran said as he pulled Mo Qingyu along, but not before giving Mo Qingchen a brief glance before leaving.

  Mo Qingchen smiled wryly, two years had passed, not only was Mo Yuqi at odds with her, but even the originally arrogant Mo Ranyi's attitude towards her had become increasingly subtle.

  "Miss, what should we do?" Yunzhi asked, seeing Mo Ran and Mo Xiang leave together, while Mo Qingchen stood quietly there, unable to help but speak up.

  "Yunzhi sister, where would your sister Yunshan be at this moment?" Mo Qingchen stared at Yunzhi's face and asked aloud.

  Yunzhi's eyes lit up: "Right, at this time, sister must be in Chuxuan Garden, miss, follow me."

  Yun Chi brought Mo Qingchen to rush out of Xiu Yuan, but when they arrived, they found that the gate was wide open.

  Yun Zhi's face changed and she walked into the courtyard, but she stared blankly at a hairpin on the ground.
