The content contained in this sentence made Chen Bai's heart feel heavy. The corners of her mouth moved in a small arc, and a hint of unknown light appeared on her face.

"Perhaps... this is the fate of human beings. They go round and round thinking they have changed, but in the end they cannot avoid the responsibilities they should bear."

Hearing what she said, Ji Yun could not remain indifferent. It was as if his heartstrings had been plucked violently, but the faint trembling was filled with pain. So he opened his eyes suddenly, his eyes as clear as snow.

, the ends of his eyes turned slightly red, and he looked at her face intently.

Is she talking about herself, or... about him?

After a long time, he calmed down the emotions that he could not express, and said in a hoarse voice: "She is a witch girl, but she married a foreigner privately. Perhaps she violated the iron law of the witch clan not to marry a foreigner and committed a crime.

She violated the taboo in the clan, so she gave birth to a child who was born with a defect and lacked a soul. When he was one or two years old, he was like an ignorant child. And for her child, she risked everything before everything was discovered.

He returned to the Wu Clan, and together with a clan member, secretly stole a very important thing from the Wu Clan, and finally cured the idiot."

The story is short, but the content is very complex.

Chen Bai paused for a moment, and after thinking about it for a moment, he already guessed who the child with the birth defect was.

However, she was more concerned about his last words and asked: "What important thing did she take away from the Wu clan?"

She thought that Ji Yun and the people behind him might choose to come to Chenjiabao just to get such things.

Having said that, Ji Yun might as well tell everything she needs to know.

"Destiny."

"Destiny? What does it have to do with the Destiny Clan?" She subconsciously connected the two.

"As the Holy Master of the Witch Clan now, you should know that all the successive witch aunts of the Witch Clan have shouldered the backlash of the Witch Clan's curse. They have always either died young or been sick and sick, but she is the only one who has endured so many generations of witch aunts.

The one who lives the longest and is able to get married and have children is not because of anything special about her, but because she has received destiny."

"What is destiny? Why do other witch girls not have destiny, but she can have it?"

Ji Yun brushed his robe that was messy in the wind, looked into the distance, and his breath settled slightly, then he told the secret of his past life that he knew: "Destiny is a sacred object of the Destiny Clan. It is said that its power can

He can cure people's diseases and prevent disasters, and he can also resist the curse of a witchcraft, but he cannot live away from his clan. He knows the destiny without knowing the destiny. Therefore, the destiny has always been kept by the elders of the clan of the destiny. As for the specific thing, besides the destiny

Apart from the elder of the clan, the clan leader of the Tianming Clan, and the next clan leader and his wife, no one else can get a glimpse of his appearance."

"Since this destiny is so valued by the Destiny Clan, why did it fall into Eminem's hands?"

The sacred objects of the Destiny Clan cannot be obtained by force, even if they are as noble as a witch aunt. Otherwise, why didn't those witch aunts in the past think of borrowing this object to extend their lifespan and keep them healthy?

Ji Yun told her the answer to this question next.

"The Mandate of Heaven is not only one of the tokens enshrined by successive clan leaders of the Tianming Clan, but it also represents another layer of meaning, which is a promise."

Chen Baiqi pondered these two words: "What promise?"

"The promise of marriage."

There were some things that Ji Yun did not fully understand, and what he knew and heard were conveyed by others, so he used words more conservatively and cautiously when describing them.

"It is said that Chen's mother is a member of the Tianming tribe, one of the twelve branches of the Wu tribe, and her parents are well-known in the Tianming tribe. It is not known whether she and the young clan elder of the Tianming tribe are in love with each other, but there must be an oral engagement.

Because of this life experience and friendship, when he learned that she was the new witch aunt deduced from the Destiny Clan, the young patriarch privately gave her the Destiny as a betrothal gift to protect her body.

However, in the end, because her parents and the young patriarch threatened her with their lives, they finally let it go and temporarily returned to her."

Chen Baiqi listened to him quietly.

"When Chen's mother was about to come of age and travel out of the Wu Clan, Tian Ming was taken back and stayed in the Tian Ming Clan, because Tian Ming could only appear in the world when the leader of the Tian Ming Clan got married and asked the clan elders to give him blessings.

Important matters must not be taken away, this is an iron rule that even the young patriarch cannot violate."

Now the whole story is clear. The story is that Chen's mother and the young patriarch of the Destiny Clan were childhood sweethearts. They had promised to get married and stay together when they grew up, but they didn't want to have a big change in the middle and Chen's mother was chosen.

As a witch aunt of the witch tribe, her status as a witch aunt is particularly special in the witch tribe. Now, the marriage that was promised at the beginning is a bit embarrassing. Should or should not be a question. Everyone knows that if the witch aunt cannot bear the backlash of the witchcraft,

, the body will deteriorate year by year, and it is even difficult to say whether it will live beyond the age of flowers.

The young clan leader didn't know whether it was because he sympathized with her fate or because he was remembering the friendship between his childhood sweethearts, so he desperately lent her the sacred object that should have been enshrined in the clan, so that she could live in the clan like an ordinary person until adulthood.

Unfortunately, this trip took another turn. Every Wu Clan who is about to come of age needs to travel outside the clan. But this time, the leader of the Destiny Clan no longer showed mercy in private and took back the Destiny from her.

Destiny leaves her body and the power of the curse will not hinder her life in a short period of time, as long as she returns as scheduled.

But he didn't expect that while traveling abroad, Chen's father would take advantage of the young patriarch of the family, causing the holy aunt to never return. In the end, she stayed in the Central Plains to marry a foreigner and have children. If it weren't for the recovery of her child, she would have feared

I will never return to the Wu Clan, but I feel like I would rather die early and happily than live a long and miserable life.

Chen Baiqi was not sure if there were other changes at the time, because logically speaking, it was impossible for the witch aunt to leave the group and travel alone, because the witch aunt was unable to learn any witchcraft, spells, and martial arts due to her physical condition.

She was proud to have people taking care of her along the way. Where did these people go? Not to mention that she was gone for several years. Is it possible that no one has been looking for her in these years?

The Destiny Clan is capable of divination and fortune-telling, as well as the Destiny Clan's Eye Detection Technique. If the person who casts this technique is an elder of the clan, as long as the conditions are met, she may not be able to hide her whereabouts no matter where she hides. But why didn't they look for her at that time?

?

Chen Baiqi stared at one place in trance.

These matters are related to the secrets of the Tianming Clan. It seems that Ji Yun and the people behind him know one thing but not the other.

She said: "Think about it... the clan member who stole the destiny together with Amu was the young clan leader of the destiny clan at the time."

Apart from him, she really didn't expect anyone else to be so selfless and capable of helping Chen's mother.

Ji Yun also guessed the same.

"You said that this destiny is a sacred object of the destiny clan. So if the destiny clan loses this sacred object, what impact will it have on the witch clan?"

"I only know that the destiny is not only important to the destiny clan, but also to the Wu clan. The loss of the destiny caused the Wu clan to be in chaos for a period of time, but there is no way to know the specific impact." Ji Yun

Shake his head.

Chen Baiqi thought of another question: "Amu stole destiny to save people, but after saving people, where did destiny go?"

Ji Yun paused for a moment, then looked at her intently, her voice as smooth as rain: "Yes, such an important thing was not in Chenjiapu after Chen's mother died. Where do you think it will be?"

"

Where will it be?

Chen Baiqi understood what he meant.

Most likely it's still with that child.

And that child is Chen Jiaoniang.

But when she became Chen Jiao Niang, she recalled the past and found no clues about the "destiny" in Chenjiabao.

"So your purpose is to find the destiny and then use it to plot against the Wu clan, right? But, aren't you from the Zhou Dynasty? Why do you want to interfere in the affairs of Nanzhao Kingdom and the Wu clan?"

At this point, some questions cannot be avoided at all: "Didn't you guess it a long time ago?"

Chen Baiqi laughed and said, "Yes, when Baima Zilong was imprisoned in Luoyang, I should have been suspicious."

Ji Yun's chest was swollen. In order to calm down the illusion that he was about to suffocate, he took a long breath and said: "Nan Zhao and the Zhou Dynasty have been dependent on each other for a long time, and their lips are cold and their teeth are dead."

"What about you, what's your relationship with Ji Fa?" she said solemnly.

Ji Yun tightened her expression and said sadly: "...I owe him a life."

Chen Baiqi was stunned when he heard this and didn't say anything for a long time.

Other than that, it's okay, but it's terrible... What can she do for him so that he can take her away willingly?

She still had to think about this matter carefully. There was a more important thing happening to her now.

"Brother-in-law, where is Xie Yingyi being held?"

Ji Yun remained silent.

"Aren't you still going to tell me? Do you think hiding it from me is for my own good?" Chen Baiqi shook his head: "If he dies, it will be a hurdle that I can't get over in my life, because he died because of me, because he... because of you

And death, sometimes the weight of a life may be very indifferent, sometimes it is a high mountain that is difficult to overcome, depending on the person's status in your heart."

Ji Yun was shocked.

He looked at her sadly: "You know very well that I can bear anything, the only thing I can't bear is your resentment..."

But Chen Baiqi told him categorically: "I will never resent you."

He stared at her pair of strange and familiar eyes. What was strange was the pair of eyes, but what was familiar was the soul inside. Those eyes were calm and clear, just like every time she looked at him in the past, he

It can be seen that she still cares about and trusts him, and there is no barrier or defensiveness due to their current identities.

She was still her, the Chen Baiqi he knew.

His heart suddenly became sour and soft, and a warm current flowed through his heart.

Finally, he compromised: "Okay, I'll tell you."

The wind blew through his clear and gentle eyes, and the affection contained in them turned into thousands of lights and turned away the gloomy shadows. However, the most beautiful time of the year is better than the smoke of willows.

He knew that he simply couldn't refuse her anything she insisted on.
