Part 2: Ancient Depression in the East End Chapter of Ancient Depression in the East: This Life and Afterlife(1/3)
The queen was found in a low-lying 500 meters away from the battlefield, with only slight scratches on her body. According to what she said, Yinhua personally knocked her away and calculated the landing point to ensure that she would not suffer fatal damage.
As for the entire escort team, including the safe and sound queen, there were only three people who survived, one was Gongsun Wu who was rescued by Xiao Yin, and the other was Xiaofei who fled the battlefield and reported to the clan leader.
However, what Gongsun Wu saw was not the one Xiao Yin who was always lazy and kind to everyone. Although Xiao Yin took action to cure her, she also saw Xiao Yin's dead face. At the same time, in her arms, Yin Hua's body that was as intact as before but without any vitality.
When he saw the corpse, Gongsun Wu didn't say anything, but the corners of his eyes that had already turned red had already shed tears of sadness. The gentle girl, the girl she had always loved to take care of, was dead.
The queen just looked at Xiao Yin who was already in pain. At the same time, she looked at the girl in Xiao Yin's arms, sighed faintly, then turned her head and stopped saying a word.
In half of the incense stick, reinforcements from various major families also arrived one after another, the main one was Ouyang Wenfeng, the head of the Ouyang family. After seeing his sons who died in battle and Dongfang Yinhua in Xiao Yin's arms, he couldn't help but shake his head sadly. He wanted to go forward and talk to Xiao Yin, but the queen who was beside him stopped him.
"Let him go, let's continue our journey."
"But, Queen, this..."
"There will not be such a powerful assassin from now on. The people who were originally assassinated were killed by the madman who attacked our convoy. They will rush forward. We will be able to go back in two days, and it will not be too late for you to come back."
The queen looked at Xiao Yin, who was moving like a walking corpse, and ignored him. Whether she was sympathizing with the poor man or mocking the sad figure, she didn't know what she was doing.
"It's too late, so don't worry."
Gongsun Wu was sent back to Gongsun's home by many disciples, and Ouyang Wenfeng's team also continued the mission of escorting the queen back to the palace. Only Xiao Yin, holding the already cold body, walked alone.
I just walked, and walked, and after two days and two nights, I came to the front of the Dongfang family's gate.
Dongfang Yongwang, the head of the Dongfang family, had known the news for a long time. He had been waiting at the door for a whole day and finally saw Xiao Yin.
At this time, Xiao Yin was already embarrassed by the erosion of the rain and the invasion of the strong wind, and his whole body seemed extremely messy, but the chanting flowers in his arms were still as beautiful and charming as a sleeping beauty in his arms.
Dongfang Yongwang, who had already made enlightenment, knew that their tribe of expelling demons and demons had already put life and death aside!
However, the moment he saw his daughter's body, Dongfang Yongwang collapsed.
He held back the tears at the corners of his eyes, and Xiao Yin also came to Dongfang Yongwang's side tremblingly and stretched out Yinhua's corpse forward.
"sorry."
Dongfang Yongwang didn't know what to say, but just took Yinhua from Xiao Yin's hand, but this time, tears broke through uncontrollably.
The head of the family, the person at the peak of cultivation, finally left tears of grief.
“Ahhhhh——!”
However, when Xiao Yin handed over Lianhua, a figure rushed out from the yard behind Dongfang Yongwang, his eyes were red and endless anger was displayed on his face.
It was Dongfang Liufeng, and he also knew the news of his sister's death. Just as Xiao Yin wanted to apologize, Dongfang Liufeng's fist hit Xiao Yin's face. Xiao Yin had no defense and let Dongfang Liufeng continue to hit him.
This time, Xiao Yin was knocked two meters away!
"Brother, don't!"
In the yard, many disciples and Dongfang Fuxue, who was in charge, hurriedly grabbed Dongfang Liufeng again, making Dongfang Liufeng unable to move. At this time, he did not think, but was just using his power barbaric, so three or four of them could hold him back.
"Why, why!"
"Why are you so strong but can't protect my sister!"
Dongfang Liufeng could no longer use force, and he could only stare at him with his blood-covered eyes, while his hoarse throat was also roaring.
Xiao Yin did not respond to a word because he had already prepared.
This is his fault, it is all his fault. He did not make a choice, which not only killed Xue Lianhua, who had an extremely pure heart, but also caused the kind Dongfang Yinhua to die in a bad life.
Xue Lianhua's family died because of herself and was already helpless, but Dongfang Yinhua had a family she loved!
"Enough, Liufeng!"
Dongfang Yongwang knew the pain of his eldest son, but looking at the desperate Xiao Yin, he knew even more that the pain of dying in front of him and not saving the people with his own hands was even more above them.
"Enough..."
However, this depressed state of mind made him unable to vent his feelings.
And Xiao Yin just fell to the ground, motionless.
"This is not the big brother's fault."
Suddenly, in this dull atmosphere, a crisp sound rang out, and then, a pair of tender hands slowly pulled Xiao Yin up.
Xiao Yin also noticed that this was the youngest child among the four sons of the East. His name should be... Wangyue.
"This is obviously not the big brother's fault, the big brother did nothing wrong!"
Dongfang Wangyue shouted out loud, but his tender voice was weak, but everyone was stunned.
"Big brother... he is obviously trying his best to protect everyone, can't you see it?"
"He is covered with scars on his body now, and his spirit is still so bad. The true energy in his body is so disordered. Can't you see it?"
Dongfang Wangyue's eyes were red, and it was obviously a sign of crying. He had lost his sister and he had also cried in the quilt.
But compared to him who did nothing, Xiao Yin has done a lot.
"It's clear, it's clearly the fault of those bad guys! Why do you blame the big brother?"
Wangyue's voice made everyone unable to answer. After all, even Dongfang Yongwang might be secretly blaming Xiao Yin in his heart.
But Wangyue's words made their hearts tremble. Yes, what did they do compared to Xiao Yin?
Dongfang Liufeng was angry, but why was he angry? Is it really because Xiao Yin did not have enough strength to save his sister?
Maybe he hated his powerlessness again.
Gradually, Dongfang Liufeng stopped struggling, and he, like a child, fell to the ground and cried bitterly.
Wangyue looked at the people who didn't make any sound, and he began to tremble all over himself. Xiao Yin looked at him who forced himself to cry, but just patted his head and forced a weak smile.
"Thank you."
After hearing this, Dongfang Wangyue, who had reached the limit, finally fell to the ground and cried loudly.
Xiao Yin stood up again and knelt in front of the Dongfang family's gate.
That night, everyone returned to Dongfang's home. They were all holding Dongfang Yinhua's funeral, and Xiao Yin just knelt straight in front of the door without saying a word.
The next day, Dongfang Wangyue and Dongfang Yongwang both went to persuade Xiao Yin, but Xiao Yin also rejected their kindness and just knelt in front of the door.
On the third day, everyone from the four major families also came.
At the Dongfang Mansion, the weak Gongsun Wu and Yuwen Zixia, who recovered from his injuries, hurried up to pull Xiao Yin up. Xiao Yin's true energy just gently retreated and opened them. At the same time, he also gave all the herbs that could reborn with broken limbs in his fairy cabinet.
After learning that Dongfang Liufeng had beaten Xiao Yin, Yuwen Zixia was even more angry and directly wanted to pull Dongfang Liufeng to apologize to Xiao Yin.
"It is obvious that Lord Xiao Yin is the most painful, why can't you understand!"
Yuwen Zixia cried and said to Dongfang Liufeng. Dongfang Liufeng didn't say anything, but hugged Zixia tightly.
On the fourth day, Dongfang Liufeng also pulled Zixia and came to Xiao Yin in person.
"I won't blame you. I deserve it, no matter how you treat me. I killed your sister. This is an indisputable fact."
"I know, but I won't blame you anymore, you have tried your best."
Dongfang Liufeng looked at Xiao Yin and slowly said what he said in his heart. At the same time, he lowered his head to Xiao Yin and said to him:
"Mr. Xiao Yin, please allow me to resign from the position of Shaoqing of Daoqi Temple."
"Flowing wind!"
Yuwen Zixia and Xiao Yin were both shocked, and Xiao Yin said to him directly:
"If you withdraw from Shaoqing's position, the suffering you will suffer will be reduced for the rest of your life, but your strength may not be improved anymore. Have you thought about it?"
"Liufeng, are you confused? How could you do this?"
Yuwen Zixia, who was standing beside him, also tried his best to persuade him, but Liufeng did not say anything, but just hugged Zixia and buried it in his chest.
"I have lost a sister. I don't want to lose you again. Even if I don't make any progress in the rest of my life, I will have no complaints."
Zi Xia, in Liufeng's arms, wanted to struggle, but Liufeng was trembling at this time, and Zi Xia finally realized that Dongfang Liufeng was already scared.
Seeing this oriental wind, Xiao Yin just lowered his head and said to the two of them at the same time:
"I wish to pay homage to Monk Juan. From today on, Daoqi Temple will be officially disbanded. You will have no connection with Daoqi Temple."
When they heard Monk Juan, the two were slightly stunned. Then, they nodded to each other, bowed to Xiao Yin, and left.
At this moment, watching the two leave, Wangyue and Fuxue, who were standing beside each other, also walked out quickly, brought a plate of food to Xiao Yin, and said to Xiao Yin:
"Xiao, Lord Xiao Yin, just eat a little. It has been four days since you didn't eat or drink, and your father was kneeling in front of the door, and his father felt very guilty."
"Yes, brother, can you please let me feed you?"
Both of them showed worrying eyes, and Xiao Yin just smiled softly, took the dishes and said to them:
"If you can rest assured, I'll eat it."
So, under their eyes, Xiao Yin also stirred up the chopsticks and brought the food into the bowl bit by bit. However, this was originally a delicacy that could bring people happiness, but it tasted like wax in Xiao Yin's mouth.
When they saw Xiao Yin's appearance, their hearts couldn't help but feel nervous.
After the last mouth was put into his mouth, Xiao Yin also struggled to smile and said to the two of them:
"Thank you, very... delicious meal."
