”Mom, what's wrong?”

Bai Zhixi looked at the woman in front of him who had a face full of pain. He had wanted to go forward and support her, but he still missed and could only stand there anxiously.

”Xi Er, your mother's time is almost up. You must remember, if that devil comes out to harm others again, you must eliminate all harm for the rest of the world, because this is the responsibility of our Phoenixis Maiden. You have to protect everyone in the world, do you understand? You can't resist it by yourself, but you can go and find the descendants of the seven great families and they will help you. ”

After Ye Shixue finished speaking, she looked at her gently and revealed a bitter smile before reluctantly closing her eyes.

Instantly, her body transformed into wisps of green smoke that disappeared within the icy cold room.

”Mother …” Will we meet again? ”

Bai Zhixi tried to grab hold of that wisp of cyan smoke, but in the end, it flew away from his hands, leaving her with endless tears.

”Xi Er, trust me, we will still meet again.”

The last sound of Ye Shixue's voice rang out in the secret chamber, and soon after, it became terrifyingly quiet. Only Bai Zhixi's crying voice remained for a long time.

She sat on the cold ground with tears streaming down her face. She kept asking herself in her heart.

Why was he so sad? She was clearly her previous self's mother, yet she was this upset?

”Greetings old general!”

The sound of footsteps could be heard as Ah Yi and the rest shouted at them.

She abruptly stood up and turned around. Only then did she discover that her grandfather was standing at the entrance to the secret room, staring coldly at her with a dark expression.

Needless to say, he was definitely angry at her for not listening obediently.

”Grandpa, I'm sorry!”

Bai Zhixi walked in front of him and kneeled on the ground with a ”pa” sound, allowing his tears to flow unbridled and wetting old general's boots.

”Stand up! Wasn't it quite awe-inspiring just now!? I am not your grandfather, and you know your own past now. While I am in a good mood, hurry up and go back to the Southern Frontier.

old general pulled her up and shouted at her.

However, in a place that others could not see, he shed tears of reluctance.

”Yes!” But in my heart, there's only Grandfather. ”

Bai Zhixi gave her an answer.

Now that she knew his identity, she would definitely return. However, if she brought her grandfather along, that would also be his home.

”I only know how to talk big. ”Come with me. I have something for you.”

Old General Bai knocked on her head, turned and walked out.

Seeing this, Bai Zhixi waved to Ah Yi and the others, and the group left the ice cold secret room in a grandiose manner.

After walking for a long time, they finally arrived at the exit of the secret room.

Along the way, they walked for four hours, but because Bai Zhixi was blinded by the treasures inside, he kept stroking the treasures left behind by his ancestor.

After climbing up the last flight of stairs, with a ”boom” sound, the stone door slowly opened, and a blinding ray of sunlight shone in. Bai Zhixi uncomfortably reached out his hand to block the blinding light.

After everyone came out, the stone door descended again, isolating itself from the outside world.

Mu Shi gestured at the stone door and it immediately vanished. There was only a Plum Blossom Tree standing there quietly.

The closer he walked, the more familiar the scenery was. Bai Zhixi was shocked awake, wasn't this his Rain Guild?

He didn't expect the exit to be here. It was truly unexpected.

”Miss …”

From afar, she could hear Zi Li's happy voice.

Following which, he saw her happily running towards him, without any signs of injury.

”You still know that there's a young miss? Why aren't you coming back to save me? Watch how I punish you.”

Bai Zhixi pretended to be sad as he wiped away the tears in his eyes. He glared at Zi Li fiercely, trying to scare her.

Suddenly, Zi Li kneeled down and apologized towards her.

”Miss, I came to save you.” But old general said that you won't die and that you need to hone your skills. Your servant thought this made sense. Young miss, your kung fu is still too weak and you can't protect yourself well. Training in a secret room is a benefit for you. So, I couldn't go back to save you, young miss, please spare my life! ”

Zi Li kneeled on the ground and said emotionally, almost cutting his throat to prove his innocence.

”Puchi!”
