The Ancient Realm Goddess
Story Perforated

Ming An was just silent. He didn't want to say anything more about this. But Ming Yuxia did not want to be silent. The girl approached her father and said in a pleading tone.

"If you do know something, please tell us" he said.

"Xia'er, you should know why I've been keeping this matter. I'm actually not gonna bring this up anymore." Ming An said slowly. He hoped that Ming Yuxia would understand about what she wanted.

"Dad, just say it. They must know the limits." Ming Xuan who had been silent since then finally spoke up. He was also curious about the matter, although in the end he would not be of much help.

Ming An walked over to fetch some drinking water. His mind wandered out of nowhere. Why he chose to live a simple life was to keep his family away from other problems. Especially since his wife died, he had been trying to keep the matter alone.

However, it turns out that those people never stop. They found his place and gave terror to him. Now should he go out and fight them? Is this a good choice?

Qing Yue'er let Ming An think of things. He could understand what the old man was thinking. Maybe this is something that is still hard for his family.

After a while Ming An finally sighed and closed his eyes. "Well, I'll tell you what I might know."

Ming Yuxia was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. He was already afraid that his father would still remain against his choice. To be honest he really wanted to avenge the person who had already killed his mother.

According to him, silence and dodging was something that would only make his enemies more visible. Although sometimes dangerous, humans should not keep quiet when intimidated. The enemy will only feel more and more happy to do so.

While Qing Yue'er just nodded. Actually he's not so worried. Had Ming An not been willing to tell her further things, he could have used other means to force her. However it was the last resort, it would be best if the old man had his own consciousness.

"Let's all come with me. I'll show you something" Ming An said. He stood up and invited everyone to follow him. Then he started walking into the backyard.

Ming Yuxia continued to follow her father until she ended up in front of the hut that was in the backyard. It was a hut that had been forbidden to enter. He did not know why his father had forbidden him to come to that place. It seems like everything has its bearing on this matter.

Ming An opened the door of the hut that had not been opened for a long time. The moist air was instantly smelled by everyone. Many cobwebs hang on the roof and walls of the wood. Then he opened the small window that was there, so that fresh air could enter.

Qing Yue'er went inside the hut. In just one look he already knew that this hut must have long not been touched by someone. He thought there was nothing so striking inside. There were only a few weapons hanging on the wall.

He could see Ming An walking closer to those weapons. Then his hand moved to pick up one of the small-sized weapons. Yes, it was a dagger that was already covered by dust.

Ming An carried the dagger and showed it to everyone. "This dagger is something that's been used to skin my wife" he said. At first he thought of throwing the dagger away, but he undoed his intention.

Qing Yue'er picked up the dagger and blew the dust on it for it to be clearly observed. After that, his appearance was open. The surface of the dagger is a little rusty, then in the handle there is a small carving in the form of the inscription 'Chao.'

"Isn't Chao a mother's clan?" Ming Yuxia asked. It seems he understood it more and more.

"That's right." Ming An nodded his head.

"So the man who killed my mother was his own family, but why?" Ming Xuan asked. He really doesn't understand. If it was because of a mere treasure, hadn't her mother and father already relented without taking a dime? Why do they still want his life?

"Maybe they still don't feel satisfied" Ming An said as he threw his face towards the window.

Qing Yue'er frowned for a moment, there were many things she had to digest. Then he handed the dagger to Ming Yuxia. "Keep this for a while."

Ming Yuxia accepted it. "Should we go to the Chao family now?"

Qing Yue'er did not answer him. He walked around to look at the weapons on the wall. Her lips revealed a smile that no one else knew.

"Miss, it seems that if you really want to go to the Chao family, now is a good time." Ming An proposed.

Qing Yue'er's steps came to a halt. He looked down for a moment and finally turned away. "All right, we can be ready. I need information about that family."

"I can tell you in detail. So you guys can get ready first, I'll clean up this warehouse for a bit" Ming An said. Then he prepared to clean the warehouse that had been unused for a long time.

Finally Qing Yue'er and the others rushed out of the hut. After that they returned inside Ming Yuxia's house.

"Did your father not cultivate? I feel his energy is very weak," Qing Yue'er said.

"He did, but having chosen to live simply so he decided to stop." This time it was Ming Xuan who replied.

"It's a pity ...," muttered Qing Yue'er. It was a pity if one stopped cultivating. Wouldn't it be that if he had high strength it would make it easier for him to protect those closest to him?

"I still don't understand, why is her mother's family still doing that terror?" Jing Ling asked Qing Yue'er softly. But the girl asked just sniffed her shoulders.

Jing Ling pursed her lips. After a while he asked Ming Xuan, "What kind of terror are they doing?"

"Last few days there have been human heads thrown into the house. The head had a dagger stuck in the crown," Ming Xuan replied.

When recalling that, he could only shudder in horror. For him who was still paralyzed, of course he felt afraid. Not to mention his cultivation was extremely low. If indeed the intruder attacked him, wouldn't he just end up being a corpse?

"Yes, that's right."

Qing Yue'er finally understood something. Yet he simply fell silent without saying anything more, until Ming An had finished with his work. After that the old man came to tell about the Chao family.

"It's been a long time since I've cut ties with them. So I don't know how they are doing right now" Ming An said. "However, I know they're not easy people. They will pursue something that is rightfully theirs. Maybe that's like how they killed Chao Xing."

Chao Xing was the name of Ming Yuxia's mother or Ming An's wife. She is the youngest daughter of the Chao family. Perhaps that was what caused him to receive more affection from his parents. Unfortunately, that made the Chao brothers not like him.

That dislike made them suppress Chao Xing. Moreover, after Chao Xing received a greater amount of inheritance from the other brothers, it made them hate him even more. How could they just shut up?

"But all of this has happened. I just hope that they stop doing those terrors" Ming An said. "The Chao family is in Li town. Xia'er must know where the city is."

Ming Yuxia nodded. "I know Li's town a little."

"All right, you can go. I have a message for you, ", said Ming An.

"What's that?"

"Never believe what they say. I'll leave this matter up, whatever you want to do with them."

Highlight Qing Yue'er's eyes dimmed slightly. He thought back to the possibilities. There were actually a lot of holes in this story, but he didn't say anything. Maybe he was the only one who thought too much.

"Then we can leave now," Qing Yue'er said.

Ming Yuxia and Jing Ling nodded. They finally prepared to leave. Yet before they actually left, Ming Xuan stopped Qing Yue'er hesitantly.

"What's wrong?" qing Yue'er asked.

Ming Xuan became awkward. "Mmm, that's .. May I know your name?"

"You can call me Xinyu," Qing Yue'er said. He said only certain people could know his real name. Even if Jing Ling had not been told by Qi Rong, perhaps until now the girl would not know what her real name was.

For him who had a complex identity and often traveled far, his name was something that just anyone could not tell. Perhaps it was just like how Cloud Fairies kept its existence hidden. It was just that he and Cloud Fairies were different people.

"So it was Xinyu ...," murmured Ming Xuan. "All right, you can go now."

Qing Yue'er simply nodded. After that, the three of them began to travel.

"Little Yue, you're so good at keeping your distance."

Suddenly Qing Yue'er heard Mo Jingtian's voice from her mind. It made him really surprised. "Have you recovered now?"

"Don't I tell you not to worry about me?" Mo Jingtian said calmly.

Qing Yue'er revealed a faint smile. Now his feelings become relieved. Indeed even though he seemed to be thinking of nothing, in fact these few days he was still worried about the man. Now that he heard it, he felt calmer.

"That's a good thing."

"You brought Taotie to this place," Mo Jingtian said.

Qing Yue'er chuckled. His involuntary chuckle came out making Jing Ling and Ming Yuxia turn to pay attention to him. They were stunned because suddenly Qing Yue'er chuckled for no reason.

"Don't look at me like that" Qing Yue'er said to her two friends. Finally Jing Ling and Ming Yuxia looked away. It seems true, geniuses tend to be strange when compared to ordinary people.

"I will move that demon into my dimension," Mo Jingtian said again.

"No! I don't want to go with him! Help me!"

Qing Yue'er could hear Taotie's scream in her mind. She wanted to laugh as she imagined how the demon would be treated cruelly by Mo Jingtian.

"Why should he be taken away?"

"He lived too freely. And I know how she is so free to flirt with someone" Mo Jingtian said. "I will free you into my dimension, unharmed by the flow of space and time. It'll make it easier if you need Taotie's help."

"Good." Qing Yue'er smiled happily. Freeing them into their dimension? Doesn't that mean Mo Jingtian let her enter his privacy?

Qing Yue'er's already good mood became even better. But he just kept this alone. Right now he still has a lot to do.
