Chapter 1814: Scarier Than Beasts
“Grandpa…” Anling Yan also grabbed Anling Yang’s hand, looking at the old man with eyes full of expectation.
If she had stayed there and hadn’t been chosen by the Moon Embracing Palace, she could have ended up as someone’s concubine or pawn, leading a life worse than death.
Rather than facing that fate, it was better to take a chance and fight for a better future.
Uncle An voiced his concern, “However, Thousand Beast Forest is incredibly dangerous. I’ve heard that even divine beasts roam there. Though there are few of us left in the Anling Family, entering the forest will surely attract the attention of these fierce creatures. If that happens…”
Xi Yue interrupted Uncle An and said seriously, “Don’t worry. Wei Zhi and I will accompany you. While the beasts in the Thousand Beast Forest are terrifying, I believe Wei Zhi is even more formidable.”
The young man in red turned his head to look at her, his expression inscrutable and his eyes deep and mysterious.
Xi Yue met his gaze without hesitation, showing no sign of embarrassment or guilt. Xi Weizhi silently looked away, but a faint smile played at the corner of his lips.
Anling Yao and Anling Hong simultaneously recalled how the young man single-handedly slaughtered everyone in the Golden Crow Tribe, including their leader, the previous night. The memory sent a shiver down their spines.
Although Xi Yue’s words sounded like a joke, they felt that Weizhi might indeed be more terrifying than the beasts.
Anling Yan recalled the gruesome scene, her face turning pale. She quickly hid behind Anling Yang, too afraid to look at Xi Weizhi.Anling Yang and the others, unaware of the details, were filled with confusion. However, seeing the confidence in Anling Yao and the others’ attitudes, they realized that crossing the Thousand Beast Forest wouldn’t be as dangerous as they had feared.
After pondering for a long time, his expression finally hardened with resolve. Gritting his teeth, he declared, “Alright, our Anling Family will collectively move to the Qingyun Realm!”
As he spoke these words, Anling Yang’s gaze drifted to the faintly visible city walls in the distance, and his eyes unexpectedly welled up with tears.
In the Dark Cloud Realm, the Anling Family had endured too much injustice and hardship.
Yet, this place was the ancestral home of the Anling Family, where they had lived for generations.
Once, the Anling Family had thrived, prosperous, and bustling with people. But now, only a scant few dozen remained.
The entire Anling Family had fallen apart. Now, they had to abandon their ancestral home, leaving behind everything they knew, fleeing like scared rabbits.
How could such a stark contrast and tragic end not leave Anling Yang feeling sorrowful and anguished?
It felt as if the downfall of the Anling Family was on his shoulders. How could he ever face the ancestors of the Anling Family again?
Seeing the tears and pain in Anling Yang’s eyes, and his increasingly hunched posture, Anling Yao and Anling Yan supported the old man, gently comforting him with soft words.
In a hoarse voice, Anling Yao said, “Grandfather, don’t worry. We will rise again and return to the ancient city. One day, our Anling Family will reclaim everything that belongs to us.”
Hearing these words, Anling Yang could no longer hold back his tears. They flowed freely as his aged hands grasped those of Anling Yao and Anling Yan. In a raspy voice, he said, “I believe in you. I believe that the Anling Family will one day regain its former glory.”
As Anling Yang finished speaking, the rest of the Anling Family also knelt, each placing a fist over their heart. In unison, they shouted, “One day, our Anling Family will return to the Dark Cloud Realm, reclaim what is rightfully ours, and restore our former glory.”
Those who remained were unwaveringly loyal to the Anling Family, without a shred of duplicity. They were resolved to endure any hardship, without flinching or despair, all in the hope of witnessing that triumphant day.
