The elders’ appearance was completely unexpected for Ye Xin; she could hardly imagine that the three individuals she was seeking would suddenly present themselves so effortlessly.
“I really didn’t expect to meet you all here,” Fang Shuiwen said, also sounding quite surprised upon seeing Ye Xin.
Zhou Yi An had already hurried forward, approaching the bedside, and looking at the heavily injured and unconscious Lin Qian with a worried expression, “How could he be so severely hurt? Could it have something to do with the Purple Demon Fish?”
Ye Xin nodded lightly, saying to Zhou Yi An before her, “Little Qian, I don’t know what kind of secret medicine he took, but he unleashed astonishing potential and slain the Purple Demon Fish.”
As she spoke, looking at Lin Qian on the bed, Ye Xin’s eyes also conveyed a pained gaze, “It’s just that Little Qian was already seriously injured. Forcing himself in such a condition naturally resulted in this state.”
After hearing Ye Xin’s description, Yang Guixiang turned his head to look at the great-grandfather beside him, “What about it, can his injuries be healed?”
“In fact, his life is no longer in danger. Although his injuries are severe, they are self-healing,” said the great-grandfather of the Green Spirit Clan, looking at the young Human Clan member on the bed, “His physical condition at the moment is unsuitable for strong medicine. The best thing to do is to just let him be and allow his own powerful life force to recover.”
Ye Xin also agreed with the statement of the Green Spirit Clan great-grandfather. She was well aware of how resilient Lin Qian’s body was. Despite his weak aura, his vitality was not diminished.
This showed that what the other party said was not wrong.
Gently stroking Lin Qian’s forehead, Ye Xin’s heart was filled with hope that he would wake up soon.
Then, Ye Xin, who had come back to her senses, also looked at the elders, performing a junior’s salute before speaking to them, “Elders, a lot has happened over these days. I need to explain a few things regarding Double Pole Palace, Carefree Sect, and Blood Spirit Valley.”
“Hmm, within this village, we three also have a temporary residence; let’s go there and talk,” Fang Shuiwen said, nodding in agreement with Ye Xin, and then speaking to her.
Upon hearing this, Ye Xin’s eyes also showed a hint of surprise; she had not expected that the elders would have a place to live within this foreign clan’s village.
It seemed that the elders had a rather deep relationship with this Green Spirit Clan.
Next, Ye Xin nodded and thanked the great-grandfather of the Green Spirit Clan and Cuiyu for their clan’s assistance and then followed the elders out of the house, heading for their temporary residence.
The temporary residence of the elders was also a newly built house in the village, neither too large nor too small, and was more than enough for the three of them to reside.
After arriving at the temporary residence, the elders sealed off the surroundings. Ye Xin then slowly relayed the events that had occurred over the years to the three elders.
After hearing everything, the three elders, each sitting on a chair, had different expressions, but they all shared one common point—they were shocked by the events that had transpired during their absence.
Lin Qian had actually unified the entire Southern Domain, becoming the lord of the Southern Domain, including incorporating the forces they three had founded.
This point, they had no objections to, as those three forces were intended to be integrated into Lin Qian’s Empire to begin with.
Besides that, what shocked them even more was the fact that after Lin Qian went to the Central Domain, he actually exterminated the Yun family. Moreover, such a terrifying incident had occurred within the Yun family.
“Infected with a curse, such a thing is too malevolent. If it really spreads, the consequences would be unimaginable,” Fang Shuiwen said with lingering fear, relieved that Lin Qian had arrived in time to break the curse.
Ye Xin sat upright in her seat, carefully observing the three elders, “It’s hard to know what the three elders have gone through these days, what exactly happened with the Purple Demon Fish and those relics?”
Ye Xin was very keen to understand the situation, so that she could explain directly to Lin Qian once he awoke.
The three elders remained silent, and after looking at Ye Xin for a moment, they exchanged glances, seeing the shock in each other’s eyes.
Even though Ye Xin’s tone was very calm, there was still a powerful aura emanating from her, filling the entire room and causing their minds to tremble.
“Hmm, has that girl grown to such an extent?” Yang Guixiang muttered to himself, impressed by the realization.
Zhou Yian cleared his throat and said to Ye Xin in an unhurried tone, “After passing through the tunnel to the underground world, we came to this subterranean world. Nothing too unexpected happened. Arriving in a strange place, we three also trained in this underground world.”
“However, the mysterious species living in this underground world were innately good-natured. Despite us being from the Human Clan, they befriended us without discrimination, which was quite interesting.”
“It’s just that the Wind Swift Clan, who guarded this underground world, started pursuing us after discovering the three of us. Almost every clan had sheltered us when we were seriously injured, including the tribe we are in now, where we have once lived. It’s just that it is a pity for the Muling Clan; the three of us have caused them much suffering…”
“You needn’t worry about that. The Muling Clan is living very well in the Huaxia Empire now. In fact, the three elders have actually helped save them.” Seeing an expression of guilt appear on Zhou Yian’s face, Ye Xin followed up quickly, reassuring him not to blame himself.
“If so, that’s very good,” Zhou Yian sighed, then continued, “Later, we three discovered a relic hidden within this underground world and decided to enter. However, once inside, before we could do anything, the relic sealed itself, ensuring our safety.”
“Inside the relic, it was empty, devoid of anything. However, seals were scattered in all directions, and there was also a downward tunnel whose entrance was sealed by an array.”
“What lies below the tunnel, we do not know, but we instinctively felt fear. Yet Yang Guixiang, who fears neither heaven nor earth, tried to touch the sealed array, wishing to go down and see for himself.” Zhou Yian said, giving Yang Guixiang a harsh glare, and the latter showed a rare expression of remorse.
Yang Guixiang, with a face full of guilt, said with much self-reproach, “If it were not for me, so many people in this underground world would not have died.”
“The fault is not yours. Upon touching it, the array remained as impervious as ever. However, the other seals within the relic, clearly weaker than that of the tunnel’s seal, loosened due to the vibration, releasing a small purple-black fish.”
“That fish, no larger than the size of a palm, directly broke a hole in the closed relic and made its way to the outside world. It took us nearly five months to leave the relic through that hole, and by that time, the small purple-black fish had grown to a tremendous size.”
“We returned to the relic to find a way to deal with it and discovered within the broken seals a stele with the inscription: Purple Demon Fish, an ornamental fish species!”
Ye Xinfeng’s eyes widened, speechless, “That terrifying fish, just an ornamental fish species?”
