Chapter 765: Shi Liyuan Explores the Wú'àn Sea
th his hand. 。The girl peered at his fingers, her eyes wide with excitement and fervor. She even said to him, "If those two are really in that kind of relationship, then if the Third Prince sends an a...Whether a way could be thought of, Ye Wen didn't know, but she had to know more about the information of the great demon, and the entanglement between the great demon and the Shen family.
Although Shen Mo Yang told her some things, they were far from enough. 。If such a terrifying existence truly existed, she must know as much detail as possible about it before she could even begin to contemplate how to cope. 。But facing this Madam Shen Er, she couldn't shake her head and admit she had no way. She had to hold on and keep up appearances, earn his trust, and then smoothly get the information out of him. 。Then she nodded to the second madam, "There's a way, but Madam, you have to cooperate. You have to tell everything you know, and it has to be the truth." 。If even one statement is false, my method will be off, and it might not work. 。“Why should I believe you” the Second Madam looked at her, a hint of disbelief in her eyes. After a long silence, she continued, “You’re just a girl, barely fifteen or sixteen years old, and I can tell you’re very ill. You’re struggling to even speak with me right now.” 。With such you, how can I believe you can handle a great demon If there really is anyone down here capable of confronting that great demon, it's probably the Emperor from the Yan Huagong. 。"It's just that the mountains are high and the emperor is far away. The Emperor resides in Lin'an City all year round, and he doesn't even ask about things on this side of Wu'an Sea. The Shen family gave a four hundred-year-old child to a great demon, but the Emperor didn't know about it!" Night Wenyan also felt troubled. For four hundred years, the Shen family had done such a big thing, did Shi Lifen really not know It should be that he didn't know, otherwise he couldn't just watch the Shen family raise a tiger as a threat." 。The way the Shen family kept this a secret was too tight, for over four hundred years no one had ever discovered it There's no wall in the world that doesn't have cracks, could the Shen family really keep this secret She told her doubts to Madam Two, Madam Two listened and then laughed: "The Shen family holds a sea worship ceremony every year. This kind of ritual isn't done on the beach for everyone to see, but by the Shen family members sailing out to sea, entering the sea formation, and then completing it under the heavy encirclement of the sea formations." 。In this process, from the child being sent out to the demon eating the child and then the demon returning to the sea, people on shore could not see anything. 。Of course, many people from the Shen family went there, and they witnessed the whole process. 。But what if one has seen it Great demons might selectively erase some people's memories, allowing them to only remember coming to worship the sea. They wouldn't remember anything else. 。"But you all clearly know about this, don't you Even the concubine in Shen Mansion of Chiyun City knows. And she even gave up her child to protect him." 。The results still couldn't hide from the Shen family. He was caught and brought back when he tried to escape. 。"
The Second Madam laughed, “Foolish! If children could truly be replaced, someone would have done it long ago. Why wait until now As for why so many people still know about this, it's because the Great Demon’s memory erasure isn't that thorough. At least for the mothers of the children who were eaten, they can't erase this memory.” 。So there are many women who went crazy or insane in the Shen family, they were driven mad by witnessing their children being eaten. 。And as for us, the main wives, our families wouldn't hide anything either. Because only we know the truth and can avoid hindering a man from taking concubines. 。Only by a man constantly taking concubines can there be an endless stream of illegitimate sons and daughters born, thus securing the status of our legitimate children. 。But the Shen family is also formidable, having guarded their secrets for four hundred years with unwavering vigilance. Even with so many living souls, they have kept their secrets safe and sound. 。To get up, this is considered a miracle. 。To be able to deceive the Emperor, is truly a miracle. 。"After a moment of contemplation, the Second Mistress looked back at Ye Wenyan, her brow furrowing in concern. Her expression grew increasingly troubled." 。"Miss, have I met you before I feel like I know you, but I can't quite place where I've seen you. " 。"That being said, she shook her head to herself again. 'Impossible that I've ever seen her. In my entire life, I haven't left the south. Born in Chiyun City and after marriage, I came to Haixian Town. How could I possibly have seen a girl from the north' " 。Unless you've come to the Shen Residence, but that's not right either. With your looks, if you had ever visited our home, Shen Muyang wouldn't let you go so easily. 。Whether we've met before or not doesn't matter. The fact that we can have this conversation today is fate. 。I just recalled, the contract between the great demon and the Shen family was indeed for four hundred years. Calculating the time, this year has already been four hundred years. 。Perhaps you are right, this sea sacrifice is different from the past. Four hundred years have passed, and the great demon might be about to emerge from the sea. 。Then I'll tell you about the grievances between the Shen family, the great demon, and that emperor.The second madam began to speak of what was recorded in the ancestral records of the Shen family about the great demon, and also about how Master Lǐ Yúan had subdued the great demon over four hundred years ago, sacrificing the lives of the entire Shen family. 。When all the truth was laid bare, Ye Wen suddenly felt a surge of fear. 。A bad feeling rose up from within her, growing stronger and stronger until the Second Madam was terrified. In the end, the Second Madam's fear consumed her completely. She turned to her and said, "If you're truly unwell, lie down on the bed for a while. I see your complexion growing increasingly pale; this can't go on." 。Don't worry, I know you don't want to marry Shen Muyang. I also won't ask why you came to the Shen family or why you were able to deal with the great demon. 。Even if you can't, it's okay. Since I've taken this on, I'm prepared to have a falling out with the Shen family. 。These years, I've had enough. Just thinking about those dead children, those poor women driven mad in the mansion, keeps me from sleeping night after night. 。If this continues, I won't live long. I might as well take a gamble. 。I'll go and stall for you with Shen Muyang, so that he can't successfully marry you. But you also need to find a way to leave the Shen family. No matter where you run off to, don't stay in the Shen household. 。The great demon's departure to sea, yet no one knows what kind of disaster it will bring. The Shen family is thinking too ideally, and even Shen Muyang wants to be emperor. 。But I always have a feeling that the great demon won't help the Shen family. It has been suppressed under the sea for so many years, what it really wants to do should be to kill everyone who knows about its past. 。Only when no one remembers its suppression will it truly rise again, truly become the master of the earth. 。I think it must also envy the Emperor, so when that time comes, it will also foster an empire, and then transform itself into another existence like the next Emperor. 。A demon is still a demon, it's different from humans. 。The dynasty it nurtured is unlikely to remain as peaceful and prosperous as it is now. 。"
Ye Wen listened to her words and lay down on the couch.
" 。The second madame was still talking about the big demon until she finished and left. Only then did Ye Wenyan sit up from the bed, covering his chest with one hand and gasping for breath. 。
The second mistress went to make a scene with Shen Muyang, Ye Wenyan knew that Shen Muyang would be held back by the second mistress today, so he shouldn't come here.
She wants to escape from the Shen family, today is a good opportunity. 。But how can we escape There are experts at the front door, and several guards are standing behind the house too. 。She's a seriously ill patient. Even if she ran away, how far could she get But what if she doesn't run She can't possibly stay at the Shen family with these secrets weighing her down. 。Moreover, the unsettling feeling that arose in her heart always reminded her of Shi Lifen. It was as if this negativity stemmed from Shi Lifen, as if Shi Lifen... was going to die. 。She put on her shoes and walked to the door. She opened it a crack and addressed the two masters outside: "I want to see my brother" 。The two experts didn't doubt it anyway, the second master had ordered that the new mistress was only allowed to stay in Shen Mansion and could do anything else. 。 Someone immediately went to look for Xiao Jiu. Before Ye Wen could even speak, he opened his mouth and said: "The second mistress quarreled with the second master. I heard they broke a lot of things. Did that trick I taught you work Yaoyao, what should we do now Should we take advantage of the chaos to escape But I see there are quite a few guards in your yard. Escaping is probably impossible. Otherwise..." Xiao Jiu reached into his sleeve and after a while, he dug out a piece of something that looked like spice. 。"I stole a piece of soul-stealing incense from the Shen residence. In a little while, we'll light this incense and daze everyone in the courtyard before... " 。"Are you sure this thing works Where did you steal it from""Whether or not it works, we have to try. I stole it from the steward of the Shen residence. I heard the steward was going to use it to charm a concubine, so I wanted to try it myself." 。We need to hurry, or the butler will find us. 。"
Ye Wen really wanted to ask him how he heard the housekeeper's words, and he also wanted to know how he could do it without any martial arts skills, but still steal things from others. " 。Could this Xiao Jiu be a famous highway robber But she didn't ask any of these questions, because she also wanted to leave. 。Compared to leaving here, Xiao Jiu's problems were no longer on her mind. 。This Shen Residence, when I first arrived, was to gather information. Now, I would do anything to escape it. 。It's truly impossible to come, go, or even stand still. The Shen family is indeed a destined nemesis. 。At that time, on the boundless sea, Shi Li's eyes were cast downward as he walked, step by step, into the intricate maze. 。After the Great Shift, with only 20% of his spiritual power remaining, he walked cautiously across the boundless sea as if on thin ice. 。These formations of waves, which he had once completely disregarded, now troubled him. They could even cause him to stumble occasionally, making him sway with every misstep. 。It's important to know that many of these sea formations were set up by him later. Even those left behind by his ancestors, he personally reinforced them all. 。No one knows these things better than he does. He walks on the boundless sea just as if it were solid land. 。This time, when they came again, the sea array was different from before. It was unclear if it was due to his waning spiritual energy or something else. 。Shi Liyuan became even more cautious, gradually, his whole person entered the mist. Even today when he wore a bright red garment, no one could see a trace of red from within the mist...t have a powerful backer. 。So I'm afraid she'll cause a scene at the Red Bridal House, and that His Royal Highness's hard-earned plans for a fresh start will be ruined. 。For the idiom "功虧一簣" (to fall...
