Chapter 296: Chapter 296: Mu Ruyue Returns (Part 2)
The elder’s face gradually filled with sadness, his heart consud by despair. Yet, now, trapped within the barrier, he was powerless to stop anything…
Xiao Tianyu held Madam Sheng Yue tightly, his gaze fixed intently on the swelling body of Elder Xiao, his handso face heavy with concern, his fists trembling slightly.
“Father, mother…”
Inside the Xiao Family Hall, Xiao Qingqing, sowhat frightened, curled up in a corner, her eyes brimming with tears, biting her lip to stop herself from crying out loud.
Her father had asked her to stay here, and she obediently did so, but sothing inside her felt uneasy. She wanted to go to her parents, but just as she was about to leave the family hall, an invisible barrier blocked her way.
She tried to pass through the barrier but failed…
“Father, mother, where are you? Qingqing is so scared…”
Xiao Qingqing’s small body shivered, her fearful eyes scanning the empty family hall.
Although she did not know what had happened, she did not want to stay here alone; she only wanted to be by her parents’ side… But why couldn’t she get out? And where was her mother now?
Gazing at the family hall, where she was the only one present, Xiao Qingqing crouched down, burying her head between her knees, only her eyes full of unease visible…
“No!”
The elder watched as Elder Xiao’s body slowly swelled, about to explode, he suddenly shouted, his voice filled with agony echoing long within the Xiao family’s courtyard…
Whoosh!
Just as everyone felt despair, a streak of silver light shot across the sky, entering Elder Xiao’s body. Instantly, his swelling body deflated like a balloon, and his formidable strength dissipated with the wind.
“What… what just happened?”
The elder blinked, looking in astonishnt toward the pure white robe in the void.
The girl stood in the void, her white robe fluttering, forming beautiful curves in the wind. She looked down, surveying those below her, a trace of coldness flashing in her eyes at the sight of Nangong Zifeng.
“Yue’er?”
Madam Sheng Yue was visibly startled, suddenly gazing at the young woman standing in the void.
In the continent, only those Innate could fly at will…
Could it be that Yue’er had broken through to the Innate? Wasn’t Murong Qingchu supposed to have said that her strength was sealed and she was in danger?
Seeing her daughter unhard, Madam Sheng Yue’s face flushed with excitent, she quickly covered her mouth, her eyes fixated unwaveringly on the girl’s flowing white robe.
Mu Ruyue coldly swept her eyes over Nangong Zifeng, then fixed her gaze on the astonished Elder Xiao. Her figure flashed, descending from the void to stand quietly in front of the elder.
“What did you just do to ?” Elder Xiao, regaining his composure, asked in astonishnt.
He had clearly felt his body was about to explode, yet did not know what Mu Ruyue had introduced into his body, miraculously stabilizing that violent force…
“I rely used a silver needle to seal your blood vessels, forcing that power to halt,” Mu Ruyue replied lightly, her tone calm and clear.
However, at this mont, her heart truly relaxed.
Fortunately, she had finally arrived at the Xiao family.
If it had been even a mont later, Elder Xiao would likely have died together with Nangong Zifeng…
Elder Xiao paused, then gave a wry smile, shaking his head: “Miss, you shouldn’t have done this. I was prepared to die. As long as I and Nangong Zifeng died together, the Xiao family would be safe, and I would die content, cough cough…”
