Translator: Sissy That Walk

After Feng Shen restored to be normal, the order of Phoenix Manor also returned to the right track very quickly .

Privately, Feng Shen told Lan Caier that Ye Lingyue was still alive . After being told this, Lan Caier cleared off all her sorrow, and she caught Little Crow and scolded her mercilessly . This little girl went as far as to conceal information .

Since Ye Lingyue was OK, Lan Caier decided to return to Da Xia immediately . Feng Shen prepared carriage and horse and asked people to escort them to leave North Qing .

Knowing Feng Shen restored to be normal, no one was happier than Xue Pianran . It seemed that in the mind of Feng Shen, Ye Lingyue did not weigh so much after all, for he forgot sadness just within a few days .

Compared to the joy of Xue Pianran, in Dan Palace, a different scene was taking place .

Among the group in the Star Cave , Chen Hongru originally pinned his hope in Wen Xu and others . He believed that they could take the Spatical Piercing Bow back, and he did not expect that not only the Spirit Artifact was not brought back, instead, many men were wounded .

Especially the Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong, who slipped into Dan Palace suddenly, made Chen Hongru feel quite uneasy .

How would Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong take sudden interest in the Number One Cave of the Star Cave? Chen Hongru doubted that Wu Zhong even sneaked into the Star Cave .

But Elder w.a.n.g, who guarded the Star Cave, resolutely and decisively said that, except for the time when the Star Cave was open, no one entered it, not to mention the Ghost Emperor Wu Zhong .

The Number One Cave in the Star Cave was the real secret of Chen Hongru and even Dan Palace, because there hided the Chaos Heaven and Earth Matrix left over from ancient times, and Chen Hongru"s achievements today were inseparable from the Chaos Heaven and Earth Matrix .

But even if it was Chen Hongru himself, unless his cultivation qualified himself, he could not enter the Chaos Heaven and Earth Matrix .

In order to find out whether Wu Zhong entered the Star Cave, after the event, Chen Hongru also asked Wen Xu and even Cong Lv carefully . He even made use of Nine Star Soul Searching Art, but no trace was there to show that Wu Zhong had been to the Star Cave .

They uniformly said that Ye Lingyue made use of the Spatical Piercing Bow and she perished together with Demon Wolf .

Only after that, Chen Hongru became not suspected any more . But what Chen Hongru did not expect was that the memory of Wen Xu and Cong Lv had been tampered by Wu Zhong .

Lan Caier took Little Crow to return to Da Xia . In order to deceive the public , they still appeared to be as heartstricken as before . To conceal the track of Ye Lingyue, Lan Mansion and Ye Huangyu even conducted a funeral to the outside .

Meanwhile, a funeral was also conducted in Hong Mansion .

During the Star Cave trip, Hong Mansion also suffered a heavy blow . Hong Yuying died in the Star Cave, even her corpse was not brought back .

Zhuge Rou and Hong Fang couldn"t help but feel sentimental .

Especially Zhuge Rou, who lost her daughter, was more inclined to be fractious these days . She was even hysterical in some way .

Hong Fang felt gloomy because of the previous event in the palace, with great unwillingness he moved back to the room with a command given by Hong Qingyun . These days, he suffered a headache from the repeated fits of temper by Zhuge Rou . Simply he found an excuse to sleep in the study, thus the relations.h.i.+p between the husband and wife turned worse .

Although Hong Mingyue and Hong Yulang successfully left the Star Cave, they were also injured, especially Hong Yulang, who had been spoiled all the time, fell ill after returning to the Mansion, and he didn"t get better for a long time .

Hong Yuying"s funeral was finished hastily . Hong Mansion made a cenotaph for her, and Zhuge Yi as well as Luo Song temporary healed their wounds in Hong Mansion .

Late at night, Hong Qingyun and Hong Fang, the father and the daughter, sat in the meeting room . Together with them were the male members of Hong Mansion, in which Hong s.h.i.+zi was also included . Hong Mingyue was the only woman present .

Hong Yuying was just buried today . Hong Mingyue was wearing plain white mourning clothes . She wore a white chrysanthemum in her hair, looking so elegant and beautiful .

After coming back from the Star Cave, Hong Mingyue changed a lot . It was not known whether it was Hong Yuying"s death, or the news that Ye Lingyue and Demon Wolf perished together that stimulated her .

Hong Qingyun did not pay too much attention to the death of Hong Yuying, and he didn"t care much about it .

Among the grandchildren of Hong Yuying"s generation, Hong Yuying had not been liked by Hong Qingyun all the time . She was spoiled and had only modest gifts .

In comparison, Hong Qingyun had a higher opinion of Hong Yulang and Hong Mingyue . Hong Yulang was favored for he was a man, in the future he could inherit the family business of Hong Mansion, blooming the Hong Mansion .

Hong Mingyue was Hong Qingyun"s favorite granddaughter . In his opinion, whether Hong Mansion was able to really rise depended on Hong Mingyue"s future achievements .

In the past ten years, Hong Qingyun had been thinking so, but until Ye Lingyue appeared, Hong Qingyun first doubted that whether his judgment was wrong .

But fortunately, Ye Lingyue died in the Star Cave .

Ye Lingyue was really dead . Hong Qingyun did not doubt about it at all, not only for that Lan Mansion had conducted a funeral for Ye Lingyue, but also for that on the day Ye Lingyue  disappeared, the name of Ye Lingyue disappeared from the Dan list of Qing Continent .

Only two possibilities were there for one"s name disappeared on the Dan list of Qing without any signs . One was that Ye Lingyue had made a breakthrough to achieve Reincarnation Realm, and the other was that she died .

It was impossible for Ye Lingyue to break through Reincarnation Realm in such a short time, then only one possibility was there, that was, she died .

What Hong Qingyun believed was also believed by many people in Da Xia and even North Qing .

But they had ignored another possibility, which was, Ye Lingyue was not at the Qing Continent at the moment .

The Number One Cave, or Chaos Heaven and Earth Matrix, which could even isolate the Red Mist Sky, was an existence transcending the Qing Continent by nature .

Within a few days, two granddaughters died, but Hong Qingyun did not show any sadness .

Thinking of Ye Lingyue"s disrespect to him, Hong Qingyun sneered . When one pa.s.sed away, it was like the light was out . "Ye Lingyue, what can you do though you were with talent, after all, it was impossible for you to compete with us Hong Manor . "

"Since the person has been dead, you don"t have to be so sad . My third son, what are you going to do with your father-in-law?" Hong Qingyun withdrew his thoughts and questioned Hong Fang .

When Hong Mingyue brought Zhuge Yi back, Hong Qingyun was a little shocked . The rouge elder cultivator of Sky Armour Sect who had had a good opinion of himself all the time, proposed to live in Hong Manor for a long time this time .

In inquiring, Hong Qingyun learned that it was widely said in the outside world that, Zhuge Yi betrayed the Sky Armour Sect, and now, the people of Sky Armour Sect were looking for the whereabouts of Zhuge Yi .

Hong Fang showed a scowl . He had also heard the things of Zhuge Yi from Hong Mingyue .

The old father-in-law of his, though looking considerate at ordinary times, how could he be so dense this time?

Even in dealing such a simple thing as killing people to silence, he did not do it well .

"Father, after all, he"s Rou"s father . Since he"s hurt, it"s not the time to hand him over at the moment . " Zhuge Yi and Zhuge Rou"s support was essential for the establishment and fast-rising of Hong Fang in Hong Manor when he was still young .

Hong Fang"s reputation in Da Xia was bad enough now . He could not bear another bad reputation for being ungrateful .

"Leave him here? Do you want to wait for the people from Sky Armour Sect to come? Don"t you think that the affairs in the manor have been so disorderly?" Hong s.h.i.+zi took the opportunity to throw a stone down a well .

"How dare any of you send my father away!" All of a sudden, the door of the meeting hall was pushed open . Zhuge Rou"s face turned red because of anger as she rushed in .
