"If you may know, what exactly is the Black Crow sect looking for? Until they had to destroy the Bamboo Curtain sect like that." Changyi Yuwen asked who was curious about Lang Yu's story.
Because according to Changyi Yuwen there must be a reason that is quite profound, because it is impossible for the Black Crow Sect to act so if there is no problem or certain cause to have to exterminate the Bamboo Curtain sect.
Although it was not a big sect but the Bamboo Curtain sect had many followers and strong warriors in it. So there were definitely not a few casualties and losses experienced by the Black Crow sect even though they had managed to exterminate the Bamboo Curtain sect at the moment.
"I don't understand either. What they're looking for. Only long ago I had heard that in the Sect we kept a very protected object. But I don't know what it is." Lang Yu gave an explanation to Changyi Yuwen while recalling something.
"The necklace and pendant, why did that fellow ask me to hand over this necklace and pendant." Lang Yu muttered softly while releasing the necklace that was coiled around his neck.
Now his gaze is directed at the necklace and pendant in the palm of his tiny hand. At first glance there is nothing strange about the object which he thinks is just a mere jewelry.
Because she got her necklace and pendant when she messed up little first, when she had her birthday. And so far nothing strange happened until the tragedy happened.
"What secret does this necklace actually hold??" Inner Lang Yu was curious as he continued flipping through his necklace.
Changyi Yuwen and Yong were also curious about the necklace along with the pendant that was currently in Lang Yu's hands.
"May I see that necklace?" Changyi Yuwen asked Lang Yu. Without answering what the little girl had directly handed over to Changyi Yuwen.
Changyi Yuwen carefully observed the necklace, but he could not find any other oddities or irregularities. Yong who was staring at Changyi Yuwen as if he wanted to ask 'Have you found something sir?'.
While Changyi Yuwen who was stared at just shrugged as a sign that he did not find anything. Being curious, Yong approached and grabbed the necklace and pendant in Changyi Yuwen's hand.
Long enough Yong saw every detail of that necklace and pendant. Yong tried to separate the necklace and pendant and then examined it again. By the time he examined the necklace he had found no strangeness at all, but when he was researching the pendant he accidentally discovered a faint scratch and fade.
"Young master, look at this!" Yong, while paying attention to his findings. Then he said back, "This isn't an ancient cipher...."
Changyi Yuwen also observed the faintly visible small scratches, according to him it was indeed an ancient cipher letter. " You're right Yong. It's an ancient cipher letter."
"really. Will Yong Gege be able to read the ancient cipher letters?" Lang Yu looked delighted when he heard that.
"Sorry, yu'er. I'm less able, but the young master can read it. Because young master once learned the ancient cipher letters." Yong replied as he glanced towards Changyi Yuwen.
"Come Yuwen gege. I beg you to read what that writing means!" Lang Yu pleaded with Changyi Yuwen who was beside him while pulling the narik of Changyi Yuwen's robe.
"alright. Alright. Mana Yong's...." Changyi Yuwen asked for the pendant that was still in Yong's hands.
"It's young master." Yong handed the locket.
Although Changyi Yuwen muttered very slowly, but due to the quiet atmosphere it could be heard clearly by Lang Yu and Yong.
"Mist Tower!!! Wasn't that a place name of the most vulnerable secret realm in Zhao's empire lord. Kira what does that mean?" Yong massaged his temple trying to remember something related to the mist tower.
"Yuwen gege what this means yu'er doesn't understand."
"Already yu'er. We'll ask Lang Gu's grandfather later. Who knows if he understands what this writing means." Changyi Yuwen calmed Lang Yu down. He handed the necklace back along with the pendant to Lang Yu to reuse it.
It does not feel the time passes so quickly, maybe caused by those who share stories and a little accompanied by joking jest that makes the night feel alive.
When time was almost midnight Lang Gu's grandfather managed to finish his long meditation. It seemed like he had managed to clear the soul-destroying poison lodged in his body, because Lang Gu's grandfather's countenance looked so bright and not as pale as before.
Changyi Yuwen got up from his seat then approached the seal that locked up Lang Gu's grandfather then quickly moved the seal instantly disappeared.
"What about the poison in your body? Can I check you?"
"Please young master Yuwen. I feel my body is much better at the moment."
Changyi Yuwen grabbed Lang Gu's grandfather's wrist to check his pulse carefully to ascertain if there was still any poison left.
"good. The pill worked very well. Your body is now clean from the poison of soul destruction. Rest for a few days then your body will be healthy as ever."
"Thank you very much for your help young master. I can't return the favor young master. If there's anything I can do please don't hesitate to say."
"You don't be too shy. We're supposed to help each other!"
"O yes. I'm sorry to ask, do you know about the mist tower?"
"I... That's. You know from where about the young master's mist tower." Grandfather Lang Gu replied with a slight nervousness.
"sorry. I accidentally saw it from a pendant worn by Yu'er. Does this have anything to do with the massacre that the Black Crow Sect committed on your sect."
"Your guess is right, young master. It is true that the Black Crow Sect destroyed the Bamboo Curtain Sect for the sake of a cursed object." Grandfather Lang Gu while slightly sighed at having remembered everything.
"If you don't depart, may I hear the story. Who knows I might be a little help."
"This story began a few decades ago. Back then I was still serving as the head of the Bamboo Curtain sect, back then I was going out of the sect due to an invitation from the sect alliance. In the middle of that journey I accidentally got lost in a wilderness. And I was stuck in it for days not being able to find a way out. In the midst of the decision, I accidentally saw a goameski is not big but enough to rest and then I decided to enter it. I felt so tired that I fell asleep in the cave. But when I woke up it all felt foreign like I wasn't in that cave anymore." Grandfather Lang Gu paused for a while and paused his story, Changyi Yuwen looked seriously listening to grandfather Lang Gu's story.
