Chapter 136 Human life is like grass

Hearing this, Feng Huan's heart moved, and the distant beam of light that he saw a few days ago appeared in his mind. At that time, he couldn't find the way out of the wild forest, so he saw the beam of light and rushed in that direction, and then he met Dan Miaoman unexpectedly.

"Not long after the rune entered my body, my uncle and my ancestor came to my ancestral land and asked me what happened. When they learned what happened, they were very excited and immediately took me into the secret realm where my ancestor practiced. Afterwards, they tried every possible way to remove the rune from my body."

"But what makes them despair is that no matter what means they use, they cannot successfully remove this hateful rune."

"So, what exactly is this rune? What is its use?" Feng Huan couldn't help but interrupt.

"The ancestors don't know either, but they know from the Dan family's ancestral teachings that there is an item hidden in the ancestral land that is related to the fate of Longxing Continent. Once the time is right and the destined person is found, this treasure will appear in the world."

"And something like this may give the family a chance to rise in the continent. So the ancestor took it very seriously. Seeing that he couldn't take the rune out of my body, he secretly sent me out of the palace and told me not to tell anyone else, including my parents and relatives, no matter what."

"After returning home, I didn't take it too seriously and practiced as usual. But one day, an extremely terrifying aura suddenly descended upon the palace. Not long after, my father and I received a message from the ancestor, asking my father to arrange for me to escape from the imperial city immediately. This is a communication method that is only used when the family's survival is at stake. My father did not hesitate and immediately sent his trusted warriors to take me to Bailu City where my mother's family is to escape.

"As soon as I left the city, I saw the entire palace in flames. Then I received a message from my father saying that a super-powerful person had slaughtered the entire palace. He was now summoning all the major forces in the city to track down the royal family. They were now trapped in the mansion and probably had no hope of escape. I might be one of the few people in the family who could escape, so he told me to protect myself no matter what happened."

At this point, Dan Miaoman's voice had become unusually low, her eyes were filled with sadness and pain, as if she had returned to that terrible night. She clenched her fists tightly, her body trembling slightly.

"I couldn't believe that all this was true. I desperately wanted to go back to save my family, but those assassins held me tightly and told me not to go back, otherwise everyone would die in vain. I could only follow them to Bailu City and hide in the mansion of my mother's family, the Zhao family. However, not long after, we got the news that my father and other members of the royal family had been killed, and the family had suffered a devastating disaster. Now even my grandparents have been implicated by me. I really can't redeem myself even if I die a hundred times!"

Dan Miaoman's tears slid down her cheeks. She gritted her teeth, and her voice was filled with endless regret: "Now I don't know what to do. I just feel like the world has collapsed. But I know that I must survive, because I am the last hope of my family. I must practice hard and constantly improve my strength. Only in this way can I hope to get revenge."

After saying this, Dan Miaoman took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She raised her head and looked at her left hand that had turned into a rune, with a determined light in her eyes: "I will not forget all these painful experiences, and I will not forget the enemy who killed my family. One day, I will make him pay the price!"

"If you can get it out of my body, I can give it to you."

Feng Huan opened his Hexu Xingpu and carefully observed the seven-colored rune, and found that it was composed of the power of the water element, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not forcibly peel it off with his true essence. After a few simple attempts, Feng Huan gave up helplessly.

"Even the ancestor of your family is powerless, how can I possibly do anything?" Feng Huan said with a wry smile.

"That person was able to be traced here, obviously someone leaked your information under coercion. Therefore, from now on, you must never contact anyone who is related to you in other ways, so as not to bring them danger." Feng Huan warned seriously.

Suddenly, Feng Huan realized a problem: "Oh no! Today during the day, I practiced martial arts with your second cousin in front of the Zhao family, and this was witnessed by many people. I'm afraid it won't be long before someone will piece together these clues and eventually trace it back to me. And with this person's ruthless methods, Yanzilou is likely to be implicated. You stay here and wait for me, I'll be back soon." After saying that, Feng Huan hurriedly left the room.

Without waiting for Dan Miaoman to reply, Feng Huan had already rushed out of the inn and headed straight for the Shu family. After finding the head of the Shu family, there was no extra words. He directly asked him to send a message to Hua Luzhu, briefly explaining what happened here and asking them to evacuate as soon as possible. At the same time, this information was considered to have completed the mission. Before leaving, he also reminded the head of the Shu family to be prepared, as that person might find him here.

"Miss Dan, the entire Bailu City is not safe. We should leave here before that person gets any news from us. Just like last time, you should change into men's clothes." Feng Huan returned to the inn, but was still worried and decided to leave immediately.

"Where should we go now?" Dan Miaoman asked blankly after sneaking out of the city. She could be considered a homeless person now, and she didn't know where to go.

"To the Imperial City."

"Ah! Isn't that just going to die?"

"No, the Imperial City should have been thoroughly investigated by that person by now. All the members of your royal family who are still alive must be under his control, so he would not think that there are any who would dare to return to the Imperial City. But you must remember, no matter what you hear or see after you return, you must resist the urge to act, and even your expression cannot change significantly, otherwise you will be easily exposed."

Just as we were about to set off, we suddenly heard a loud noise in the city, and the direction was exactly where the inn was before.

"Fortunately, we have left, otherwise..." Dan Miaoman looked at Feng Huan with lingering fear.

Feng Huan frowned, as few people knew that they were staying in an inn, unless the head of the Shu family was forced to confess, or there was a secret hunter arranged by the other party among the people who delivered the information.

……

There was only one official road between Danxue Imperial City and Bailu City. From time to time, various caravans transported various goods and traveled on this official road. There were also some young masters and young ladies from wealthy families who went out to travel and travel, and they were surrounded by people and walked slowly on the official road.

Feng Huan and Dan Miaoman were in a team at this time. Last night, they knocked out two hired cultivators in the team and took them away, then disguised themselves as them and sneaked into the team.

In this way, the two of them followed the team and arrived at Danxue Imperial City safely.

The current Danxue Kingdom's imperial city no longer has any of the prosperity of an imperial city. Instead, it is a bleak scene, with pedestrians in a hurry on the street and vendors daring not to shout loudly.

The two came to a teahouse, drank tea and listened to the gossip of people around them.

People in the teahouse sat in groups of three or four, talking in low voices about what had happened in the city in the past few days.

From these people's conversations, we roughly understood what happened after Dan Miaoman left, as well as the current situation.

Seeing that Dan Miaoman was in a bad mood, he quickly pulled her away and found an inn. As soon as she entered the room, Dan Miaoman burst into tears.

She heard that all the members of the royal Dan family in the imperial city were massacred by that person, and even some families close to the royal family did not escape the disaster. Now the entire imperial city's population still alive is probably only 70% to 80% of the original population.

Normally, if the royal family was destroyed, other powerful forces would definitely step forward to take over the country. But now no one dared to step forward, fearing that standing up would bring disaster upon themselves.

"Is this man a human? Even if he wanted to find treasure, there was no need to kill so many people! Is human life so worthless in his eyes?"

For those who practice martial arts, it is inevitable to injure and kill others in pursuit of treasures and training resources, and Feng Huan is no exception, but he will never implicate innocent people in this way and will kill them all.

"Or is it that after reaching a certain level of cultivation and standing at a certain height, ordinary people are no different from straw dogs and grass in their eyes?"

Looking at Dan Miaoman who was crying bitterly, he didn't know how to comfort her. Maybe letting her cry her heart out at this time would be a better choice.

"Why is this person so powerful? He is so powerful that it is beyond the cognition of normal people. It is impossible for someone at the peak of the Ninth Five Realm to destroy a royal family so easily. Although the royal family of Danxue Kingdom is not very powerful, there must be someone at the peak of the Ninth Five Realm. But they were destroyed so easily. Could it be that his cultivation has surpassed the Ninth Five Realm?"

Feng Huan was not sure, because he had never heard of such a level of cultivation before, including his father, Zhong Ding Wang, who was ranked at the top of the Demon Sealing List, but his cultivation level was only at the peak of the Ninth Five Realm.
