Chapter 1305: The Path Of Apocalypse (28)
The minutes ticked by. It was unknown whether Grandma Gu was recalling the things she’d heard, or was weighing what could be said and what could not.
“Since you came to ask about it, I’m sure you should know about the Battle at Spirit Water clearly.”
Even though Grandma Gu couldn’t see her, Ming Shu answered with a smile. “Yes.”
Grandma Gu nodded.
She cast her dull eyes in the other direction, and there was another eerie silence.
After a long moment, Grandma Gu began to talk in a voice full of vicissitudes. “At that time, invited by the Long family, the Xi family went to the Spirit Water. The Xi family didn’t know that they wanted to attack the paG.o.da back then, and didn’t know there would be the Battle at Spirit Water later.”
Qi Yu secretly put a label on the bottom of his heart: Attacked the paG.o.da first, then it was the Battle at Spirit Water.
The Xi family was equally matched with the Long family at that time, both of which were big families on the Xuanzi Continent.
As for how the Long family invited the Xi family, it was unknown, but the result was, the Xi family accepted the invitation.
Grandma Gu didn’t elaborate on attacking the paG.o.da and the Battle at Spirit Water. She directly skipped them. “After the Battle at Spirit Water, the world was divided into three parts. The Xi family did gain some benefits at that time, but we suffered great losses.”
Wars were breaking out on the three continents. Some people asked the Xi family to choose sides, but the Xi family didn’t want to partic.i.p.ate.
Then the thing the Xi family got its hands on became a time bomb.
The Xi family encountered crisis and the clansmen were hunted down.
From that moment, the Xi family’s nightmare began.
It only took them a short time to fall from a prosperous clan to a declined one.
At the end of the road, their ancestor who got that ability tried to use it to reverse time.
Grandma Gu paused. “Since you came to ask, Lady, you must know what ability my ancestor got, right?”
“Yes.”
Grandma Gu’s voice was weighed with a sigh. “Pitifully, the ancestor failed.”
“But since then, the ancestor had become a little strange. I don’t know the specific situation, as I didn’t live at that time.”
After that, there were more days of being hunted down for the Xi family, and one day, the Xi family’s ancestor was missing.
Some clansmen said that they saw the ancestor use that power before disappearing.
Others said that the ancestor couldn’t bear the present situation and left them.
Either way, the ancestor never returned in the end.
There weren’t many clansmen left in the Xi family then. They hid from their hunders and concealed their ident.i.ties to this day.
Grandma Gu: “The Xi family has long left the stage of history. As the Xi family’s later generation, I never expected to tell the former stories for the ancestor one day.”
In fact, these matters were not unspeakable.
In those days, the Xi family was also a victim, wasn’t it?
A good family was torn apart by those people.
Ming Shu asked, “About that ancestor, what’s his name?”
Grandma Gu frowned and answered a moment later, “His first name was Heng.”
Xi Heng.
…
That was all Grandma Gu knew. Ming Shu got up and said goodbye to them.
“Lady.”
Grandma Gu called her.
“Is something happening?”
Suddenly someone came to inquire about the old days, although she didn’t know what happened, Grandma Gu felt worried as the Xi family was suddenly involved.
“The Xi family has long disappeared, no matter what happens outside, you won’t partic.i.p.ate in it. Why bother asking?”
Grandma Gu was stunned, and nodded after a while. “Yes… Yes…”
When the Xi family first started to conceal their ident.i.ties, there were also clansmen trying to get the Xi family back to its original glory.
But in the end, they all had to live in this village.
As time continued, there were only a few who remembered they were the Xi family.
Ming Shu left the courtyard with Qi Yu.
After getting out of the village, she looked down and fell to her thoughts.
If this was true, then the little demon’s apocalypse should be this Xi Heng’s.
As for how it came to Qi Yu’s hands…
Perhaps Xi Heng had left this world and arrived in Qi Yu’s world in the end. Probably because of his ability and the difference in time…
Speaking of which…
She didn’t seem to have asked Qi Yu where he got the apocalypse.
Well…
“Come here, baby.”
Qi Yu: “…”
Qi Yu took a step back instinctively. “Wife, what do you want to say.”
“Why are you so far away from me?” Ming Shu pulled him back and put her hand on his waist. “Do you think I will eat you?”
Qi Yu murmured, “If so, I’ll be happy.”
“What were you saying?”
Qi Yu answered immediately, “You look very pretty today, wife.”
Ming Shu pinched his face. “Okay, enough. Let me ask you, where did you get the Apocalypse?”
Qi Yu’s expression changed a little.
“Didn’t I tell you I killed my mother?”
“Yes.” Ming Shu tightened her hold.
“When I was born, our world was already like that. People formed resistance forces, and the later city cl.u.s.ters began to grow in size.
“But at that time, there was no Time Control Department.
“One day, my father received a message that someone had found a strange building. My father was with my mother and we went together because it was an emergency.”
The ship landed in smoke over the ruins of a city, and the city seemed to have just been destroyed in a battle.
“Lady, Young Master, this way please.”
Facing the frightening scene below, Little Qi Yu, who had been well protected, cried out nervously, “Mom?”
His mother’s warm hand fell on his head, gently comforting him, “Don’t be scared, Little Nine, Dad is with us.”
Little Qi Yu bit his own lips firmly. “Yes!”
Led by his mother, Little Qi Yu stepped off the ship, and in front of them, surrounded by others was his father.
Because the ship landed near the building, they arrived there at the same time as Father Qi.
The place was blocked. Little Qi Yu and his mother stood outside, looking over at the building in the deep pit.
The pit was apparently blown out. It was all blackened soil and there was nothing but ruins left.
But the building in the pit was intact.
For fear of any harmful substances, from the discovery until now, they only sent robots down to check, yet found nothing abnormal.
The structure was as tall as a two-story building and as large as a house, built in the pit.
Little Qi Yu and his mother were quickly sent back to the camp they set up temporarily.
Because he was young and the only child of Father Qi at that time, he could travel almost anywhere in the camp.
He heard a lot of things. Some people said that the building was very old. They didn’t know what it was made of, but it seemed indestructible.
Qi Yu suddenly stopped.
He looked at the void, thoughts floating away.
“What happened later?”
“Later…”
Qi Yu murmured.
Later, the aliens appeared.
Large numbers of aliens suddenly appeared nearby and attacked their camp.
At that time, he was so fond of playing that he threw off his guards, wandering alone somewhere.
Frightened by the alien attack, he hid in a corner and didn’t dare to move.
He heard someone call him, but he dared not answer as there were aliens outside.
If he answered, he would be found.
He saw the ship go up into the air from the camp and they all left.
