Chapter 426.
The one she wanted to kill was already dead.
What was she still clinging to?
Jiang Ran gazed at Bai Lu in front of him, waiting for an answer.
Bai Lu was slightly silent for a while before she said:
“Cloud chasing bow, moon chasing arrow.
“It doesn’t belong to the royal family of the Qing Kingdom, it’s the inherited treasure of the Jin Clan lineage.
“I’m going to get them back, no matter what price I pay.”
“What does this matter have to do with you?
“The one who killed your entire family was the already deceased emperor of the Qing Kingdom, even if you want to retrieve the Cloud Chasing Bow and the Moon Repelling Arrow, that should be Li Tianyu’s responsibility.
“Instead of the yoke that you should shoulder.”
“Who let …… him always give me the things that he worked so hard to get.
“Although those things, in hindsight, are not worth mentioning at all.
“But were the things he was able to get at that time, and that were most cherished by him.”
Shirou’s eyes were flooded with the color of memories again, followed by a soft exhale:
“I, ah, from a very, very young age, have been thinking of what to give him.
“But there has never been a suitable return gift.
“But I think there’s probably no other gift that’s better than this.”
She looked at Jiang Ran as she said this:
“Since you have returned, have you seen Autumn Shiping?”
Autumn Shiping …… Autumn Shian.
Jiang Ran suddenly realized that this was probably the hope that the old patriarch of the Autumn Clan had for these two brothers.
Unfortunately, Ping An was not there.
The Autumn Clan had also become completely hopeless.
But how was he supposed to say this to Bai Lu?
But Jiang Ran’s silence would have been the answer, and Bai Lu’s face immediately faded three shades of blood as she gazed at Jiang Ran:
“Dead?”
“Almost dead.”
Jiang Ran said:
“He’s crazy …….”
The words were said to this point, Jiang Ran recounted things so and so.
Bai Lu listened silently without interjecting a word.
And Jiang Ran said:
“Perhaps, when Autumn Shian threatened him with your and the child’s lives, he had already gone mad.
“The patriarch of the Autumn Clan has also been brought here by me.
“It’s just that his condition is even more serious ……
“Even though he was stopped from his impulse to storm out and kill, he’s still in his deathbed.
“The Autumn Clan, perhaps by Autumn Shi An, has drawn a line under it with his own hands.”
After Bai Lu finished listening, she was dumbfounded and lost in thought.
For a moment she seemed to have forgotten about this evening, and subconsciously turned around, but her feet stumbled.
She almost fell off the roof while holding the child.
Fortunately, Jiang Ran was quick and pulled her.
She subconsciously broke away from Jiang Ran’s hand and gently shook her head:
“I’m fine …… I’m fine ……
“The Autumn Clan is no longer available.
“The eldest son, Qiu Shiping, was originally my hope.
“He was the family’s unpopular grand duke, excluded from the core because he had no queen.
“I gave him a son ……
“Then the father could be honored by the son, and from then on ascend to the position of head of the family.
“And I, who have such great help for him, and with whom he is graciously in love, am naturally under one person and above ten thousand people.
“From then on, I party have more chips to plan the great things in my heart.
“But …… but …… this many years of hard work, surprisingly, surprisingly a dynasty all lost.”
Blood dripped down her palm a little bit.
Nails deep into the flesh, but do not feel the pain, or, this and the heart of grief and indignation compared, is really not worth mentioning.
Bai Lu looked at the child in her arms and stared for a long time before sighing:
“Just …… this is about retribution.
“From the very beginning, I shouldn’t have lied to him.
“But there’s no harm …… I’m still alive, as long as I’m still alive, there’s hope.”
She stumbled and tried to go down from the roof.
Jiang Ran then took her and flew down to the ground.
Bai Lu’s emotions eased a little, and she glanced at Jiang Ran:
“Thank you, Mr. Jiang. ……
“Qiu Shiping, Qiu Shiping where is he now?”
“Just in the room.”
Jiang Ran said:
“You go and take a look at him?”
“Good.”
Bai Lu looked at this child in her arms with complicated eyes, took a deep breath and followed Jiang Ran into the door.
As soon as she entered, she heard two monks from the Da Fan Zen Academy reciting the Sutra of the Past Life.
Supernaturalizing the dead souls of the deceased, guiding a few masters and brothers, to the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss.
Jiang Ran’s eyes swept over their bodies, then led Bai Lu inside.
Pushing open a door, on top of the bed, the Grand Duke was lying there quietly.
As if he was unconscious, he had long since died many hours ago.
However, the moment Bai Lu stepped into the room, the Grand Duke’s fingers gently moved.
Bai Lu looked at the man on the bed, her eyes filled with a complex luster.
Their marriage originated from a lie.
Getting to this point was the consequence of Bai Lu’s thousand thoughts and countless calculations.
She has not loved the man on the bed …… In her heart, the only thing that matters is the thing she wants to do.
If she is easily moved, she is afraid that she will forget what she should do.
Sorry for those who died for this.
It wasn’t that she was too heartless, a woman who didn’t know martial arts, but she wanted to kill one of the most powerful people under this sky.
What could she do?
Utilize everything that can be utilized, calculate everything that can be calculated.
But now, all of this is like a basket of water, that’s why she said, this is her own retribution.
The baby’s cry sounded at this time.
Perhaps the sound was too noisy, Grand Duke Qiu slowly opened his eyes.
First confused, then awake.
Finally, with difficulty, he twisted his head to look:
“Child …… child ……”
When he saw Bai Lu, a flame burned in his eyes, and he looked with all his strength at the child in Bai Lu’s arms:
“My …… my child?”
Bai Lu placed the child at his side.
Qiu Shiping first looked at the still swaddled baby with a thirst-like look, selling his limbs and stretching them out, crying like his heart was torn out.
His face was sad and joyful in an unfathomable way.
Only large teardrops rolled down from the corner of his eyes.
“Peace …… peace is good ……”
As the words came out, he looked at Bai Lu:
“I …… can’t apologize to you ……”
These few simple words drew Bai Lu to no longer be able to suppress the emotions in her heart.
She bit her lower lip and poured out her best restraint while continuously shaking her head:
“You’re good …… You’ve always been good …… The bad one is me, the bad one, is actually me.”
Only her words did not receive a response.
Raising her head again, Duke Autumn was already out of breath.
“Autumn Shiping …… Autumn Shiping!!!”
Bai Lu subconsciously shouted, only that person was no longer able to respond to her.
All the way up to this point, some images that had already faded into oblivion, or had once been willfully disregarded away by her, were then uncontrollably presented in her mind.
Amidst the sea of flowers, that person clumsily stuck a delicate flower between her hair.
Whenever he needed help, as long as he shouted his name, he would appear in front of the door as fast as he could.
It was only then that Bai Lu realized.
He had indeed lied to him, but he, however, had never been affectionate.
Bai Lu did not regret that she lied to him, but at this moment, she really felt an unprecedented pain.
Tearing her heart and lungs, making it difficult for her to restrain herself.
Jiang Ran did not continue to watch, he turned around and left the door, and in passing also closed the door to the room.
How exactly did the tragedy of Bai Lu and Qiu Shiping begin?
Jiang Ran thought about it carefully, but then realized that there were too many factors that contributed to it.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the Emperor of the Qing Kingdom, who wanted the Cloud Chasing Bow and the Moon Arrow, hadn’t ordered the execution of Li Tianyu’s entire family.
Then perhaps, Bai Lu would have grown up in the original family, and finally married Li Tian Yu logically.
All of today’s events would not have happened.
And if she hadn’t chosen Qiu Shiping to become a ladder of revenge, Qiu Shi An wouldn’t have jumped over the wall and brought Wang Heng back to the Qiu Clan.
Delusively trying to learn the Phi Xing Heavenly Demon Chop from his body.
Thus increasing his own bargaining chips.
Then everything that happened today, likewise, would not have happened.
If Qiu Shi An had the heart to tolerate others, he would not be so wantonly crazy and act without any scruples.
Autumn clan will not fall to the present situation.
Although after the development of how, now stand here empty thought is not think out.
But …… at least it will not be this tragic.
He came to the door and sat down, feeling that there were two more people beside him on the left and right.
On the left was Ye Shocking Frost, and on the right was Ye Shocking Snow.
Jiang Ran glanced at Ye Jingxue in wonder:
“What are you coming over to make a scene for?”
“So I’ll go?”
Ye Jingxue’s willow eyebrows rose.
“Forget it ……”
Jiang Ran pulled her back, turning around and spreading the rumor that Duke Jiang and his second wife didn’t get along was going to collapse his persona.
Ye Jingxue glanced at Jiang Ran:
“Big brother Jiang, you have something on your mind?”
Jiang Ran smacked his lips, feeling something, not knowing where to start.
A hatred that stretched over decades, a reckoning, an ambition that ended up burying the entire family.
He thought for a moment and glanced at Li Tianyu’s position again.
He had already fallen asleep over there.
Just sleeping so soundly and not peacefully.
Jiang Ran sighed softly:
“It’s not so much to say that I have something on my mind, it’s just that when I look at this scene, I don’t know why I feel a bit of bad taste in my heart.”
“Are you sympathizing with Bai Lu? Or are you sympathizing with the Autumn Clan?”
Ye Jingxue said in a puzzled manner:
“For someone in your position, sympathizing with others like this is truly strange and odd.”
“This is not sympathy, it is empathy.
“People share the same heart and feelings.”
Jiang Ran rolled his eyes:
“There are times when you see things in others, you can’t help but think of yourself.
“You all heard Qiu Shi An’s words earlier, and you all should understand Bai Lu’s life ……
“What is the reason why she has come this far?
“Looking at her like this now, I can’t help but feel some emotions.”
Ye Shockfang nodded:
“Blood and sea hatred, must not not be avenged …… She doesn’t know martial arts, to be able to make it this far, is already something that many people can’t compare to.
“It’s just that human calculation is not as good as heaven’s calculation.
“There are some things that cannot be reversed by human power.”
“Exactly.”
Jiang Ran nodded, looking up at the stars in the sky:
“Then I thought of the old drunkard’s persistence ……
“I could guess what he went to do and why he didn’t take me with him.
“But I am, nowadays, worried about his end.”
“His end is that he will definitely be peaceful and let you give him an old age.”
Ye Jingxue said with a smile:
“Speaking of which, things in your family are also a mess.”
Jiang Ran gently pinched his brow.
It was indeed a mess.
Mrs. Qingyang and the old drunkard were in love, but could it be that she really didn’t have any half-hearted feelings for Jiang Tianye?
Not long ago, Jiang Ran from Liao YuXian hands to get the handbook can see, JiangTianYe is certainly rebellious and stubborn, but for Mrs. QingYang, also since the beginning of the time, there is a point of his own don’t understand the feelings in it.
And Old Uncle Chen told him at that time.
The old drunkard went to war in the world, and when he came back, he saw Mrs. Qingyang holding Jiang Tianye’s body.
Perhaps, she never let go of her hand until she died.
If one were to say that there was no love at all, why would it be so?
Nowadays Jiang Ran is actually very suspicious of Mrs. Qing Yang in the end is dead or alive……
After all, the old drunkard they did not see the body of Mrs. Qing Yang.
Jiang Ran also did not see Mrs. Qing Yang in the end how serious injuries, therefore, the heart inevitably stored a few points of hope.
But if she really did not die, why did not she come to look for the old drunkard?
When Jiang Ran saw Bai Lu, he couldn’t help but think of Mrs. Qing Yang.
Then the mood became more complicated.
Even more so, he couldn’t help but think …… If Mrs. Qingyang really came back alive, then as Jiang Tianye’s son, how on earth should he see the relationship between his own mother and his own master?
This fucking is also too dog blooded a little bit, right?
Thinking of this he didn’t have the emotion to continue to feel for others there, gently rubbing his temples:
“Okay, okay, the feelings end here.
“You guys go rest first …… I’ll go find those two monks to talk.”
Jiang Ran had personally twisted off the heads of a couple of monks from Ring of Evil.
Now that he had even moved the bodies back, of course he couldn’t admit that he had killed them.
Otherwise, the Autumn Clan’s side would have to bury five bald corpses.
Such a fight was really unnecessary.
In fact, Jiang Ran now wanted to go to the Da Fan Zen Center and talk to the leading monk.
Unfortunately, there was no time now.
Can’t find the big monk, then stabilize the little monk first.
Lest they die for nothing.
Jiang Ran felt that he was able to do this, and it was completely considered benevolent.
The two monks who were reciting the Sutra of the Past Life, when they saw Jiang Ran’s arrival, they immediately stopped and looked at Jiang Ran with folded hands:
“Scholar Jiang.”
“The three masters are courteous.”
Jiang Ran cupped his fists and sat down.
These two remaining monks, one was called Precious Delusion and one was called Precious Anger.
At this moment, Ring Rage looked at Jiang Ran, and it was hard to hide his anger in his brows:
“Monk Jiang, these three senior brothers of the poor monk, just who did they die at the hands of?
“The martial art that killed them was by no means the martial art of the Autumn Clan.
“Could it be the devil disciple of the Devil Cult who was imprisoned here?
“And where is that devil disciple now? Please also tell us truthfully, monastic monk Jiang!!!”
After Jiang Ran came back just now, he brought back this corpse, and rushed out without bothering to say anything else.
He just asked the two monks to wait a little while.
The two monks recited the sutra of the past life while waiting, easily waiting for Jiang Ran to come over, this preceptor was obviously about to reach his limit.
Instead, it was Quest Delusion who glanced at Quest Rage:
“Preceptor Anger.”
As these two words entered his ears, Ring Rage took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, and said ‘Amitabha Buddha’.
Jiang Ran grinned in his heart.
Having the heart to say that this is not the work of someone in the Devil Cult ……
But he was indeed the Demon Cult’s Young Zun.
But to say that it’s the work of the Demon Sect, this group of monks will not have to go on and on with the Demon Sect?
This Da Fan Zen garden really call people headache.
If you really can’t, turn around and destroy this Da Fan Zen Garden.
Jiang Ran pondered in his heart, but sighed:
“The three masters died under Qiu Shi An’s calculations.
“He imprisoned the demonic disciple here and fed that demonic disciple a mind-altering drug.
“so that he could perform martial arts and kill those who were tricked into the cell by Qiu Shi An.
“I and Master Cessation of Evil were not sure of the reasoning, and I wanted to go in and ask that demonic disciple how he should save the Autumn Clan.
“But I didn’t expect that demonic disciple to suddenly make a move.
“And initially, we thought that the devil disciple’s hands were bound by chains, even if he made a move, there was no harm.
“But Qiu Shi’an secretly controlled the mechanism and relaxed that chain, and that’s how the three masters met their fate.”
“Second Master Qiu?”
“Surprisingly, it’s him!”
The two Ringwraiths looked at each other, but then frowned:
“We’ve seen the Second Prince of Autumn before, why did he do this?”
Jiang Ran reached out and pointed to the room not far away and said softly:
“You’ve all seen Young Lady Qiu, right?
“The one in her arms is the heir born to her and the Grand Duke.
“The rules of the Autumn Clan, I expect the two Masters to understand them much better than I do.”
The words were enough.
Preceptor Mouth chanted ‘Amitabha Buddha’ and let out a long sigh:
“So that’s how it is ……”
Preceptor Anger, on the other hand, was enraged:
“Outrageous, in this way, the fall of the Autumn Clan into this situation is really the work of this Qiu Shi An.
“He really is a wolf, not hesitating to take on the entire clan of the Autumn Clan!
“Where is he now?”
Jiang Ran then said:
“That devil disciple’s methods are extraordinary, losing his mind is only for a moment, we circled around with him, and after a few narrow escapes from death, he even regained his senses.
“With a strong martial arts, hard to break free from the hands bound.
“Rushed out of the cell.
“In the end, he killed all the way and took away Qiu Shi’an.
“After that, he disappeared. ……
“We think we can’t beat them, and we can’t do anything to stop them.
“In the end, we had to bring back the three masters’ corpses first, and then we had to strategize with the two masters about what to do next.”
In the end, it was the old drunkard who brought him up, deceiving gods and ghosts with his mouth open.
Although what he said was not exactly a tight fit, he could not find a break for a moment.
The two monks looked at me, I looked at you, and finally sighed:
“The Autumn Clan can’t be saved, and it’s not a pity that that demonic disciple took away Qiu Shi An.
“He deserves whatever happens to him.
“But the Autumn Clan is innocent. ……
“Senior brother, we need to send a message to the Sect, asking the Sect to send a high ranking person to come here to check and see if this Autumn Clan can still be saved?”
“Exactly.”
Ring Delusion nodded:
“Rest for the night tonight, and tomorrow morning, we’ll send a message back to the Master Sect.”
And Jiang Ran said:
“That being the case, then this place is mostly unnecessary for me.
“I also have some business to attend to, so I cannot stay in this Autumn Clan for long.
“Tomorrow morning, I will set off on my journey, so I will take my leave of the two masters here first.”
Ringmaster nodded his head gently, and before he had a chance to speak, he heard Ring Delusion laugh softly:
“No, Sifu Jiang, you cannot leave.”
