Chapter 51: The Mysterious Golden Book (Third Update)
Inside Yī Chí's room.
At this time, Yi Chi was holding Qiu Xue and saying extremely corny romantic words. Although these words made even Yi Chi himself feel a bit unbearable, the effect was still very good.
"Xiaoxue, can you tell me what's going on between you and Yixing?" Yi Chi suddenly asked.
This left Akane somewhat taken aback, but she hesitated for only a moment before beginning to speak in a slow and measured tone.
Originally, ten years ago when Qiu Xue was still young, their family had been slaughtered by a group of bandits, leaving only her and her younger sister Qiu Yu behind. Just as they thought their lives were about to come to an end, Yi Hang appeared. Yes, it's a very clichéd scene, so clichéd that it felt unreal to Yi Chi.
There is no such thing as coincidence in this world. All coincidences are actually connected by a thread of cause and effect.
So, in Yichi's view, the matter of autumn snow must have a great relationship with Yixing. Otherwise, why would Yixing be so coincidental and appear at that critical moment when only two people were left? Why didn't he appear at any other time, but just happened to show up when it was just the two of them?
There must be a conspiracy!!
Yi Chi didn't dare to say for sure what kind of conspiracy it was, because he didn't know what Qiu Xue's family had that could make Yi Hang attach so much importance to it.
Money? Don't be kidding, as Qiu Xue said, their family is not some wealthy family, just an ordinary merchant family.
Baby? This is a bit possible, after all, some babies can't be recognized by people who don't know them, and it's also possible that Autumn Snow's family members didn't recognize the goods. However, they were seen by someone with ulterior motives, and as a result, Yi Hang found out. Although this explanation is a bit far-fetched, it's not impossible either.
"Xiaoxue, think carefully, is there anything special in your family?" Yi Chi said softly. He didn't want to put too much pressure on her now. If she could recall something, that would be best. If not, it was also okay. This matter, Yi Chi would personally take care of it.
Qiu Xue tilted her head and thought carefully for half a day, but ultimately shook her head.
"No, we just sell medicinal herbs at home, nothing special, just some ordinary herbs and medical books, all very ordinary things."
"Is that so..."
Yi Chi furrowed his brow. This matter obviously wouldn't be that simple, but Autumn Snow couldn't provide any valuable clues either. What a difficult situation!
"Master, are you suspecting Master Da?" asked Qiu Xue with a tense face.
He glanced at Qiu Xue and, to be honest, Yi Chi really didn't want to hear the words "Young Master" come out of Qiu Xue's mouth, which made him feel quite annoyed.
"Not bad, I don't think it's a coincidence that he appeared at the right time and saved you all, this matter is suspicious." Yi Chi nodded and said.
Autumn snow's eyes dimmed slightly.
"Master..."
But before she could continue, Yi Chi stopped her.
"You don't need to say more, I know he's taken good care of you sisters all these years. But you also want to know the truth from back then, right? If you do, then just drop it now and let me handle everything." Yi Chi said with a resolute gaze, as if there was no room for discussion on this matter.
"En." She nodded, actually, Qiuxue didn't think it was suspicious at all, but Yi Xing had been taking care of them for many years, and she didn't want things to develop to that point. However, since she had already confirmed her relationship with Yi Chi, then naturally everything would have to be done according to Yi Chi's wishes.
Yi Chi smiled and kissed her forehead, he was happy that Qiu Xue could stand on his side.
"I know the clue."
A sudden voice came over, which startled both Yi Chi and Qiu Xue.
He looked up and saw Autumn Rain standing at the door.
"Xiao Yu, you said you know a clue?" Yi Chi was surprised by Qiu Yu's appearance, but he was more concerned about that sentence.
Autumn rain, she actually knew the clue.
"En, I know." Autumn rain nodded with a affirmative expression.
"Is this true?" Akira asked in surprise, looking at Akiho.
Qiu Yu looked at her sister with a complex expression, then opened her mouth and said: "I know that Father has a book, every time he will hide in the room alone to read it, every time he reads it, he is very excited, I also discovered it once when I was playing hide-and-seek with my sister."
"What book?" Yi Chi was puzzled, what kind of book could make someone excited just by looking at it?
"Yes, it's this book, and what's more, it's a very beautiful book, all golden yellow." Qiu Yu nodded affirmatively.
"The golden yellow book is very beautiful, then, what book is it?" Yi Chi furrowed his brow and thought.
Qiu Xue on the other side looked at Qiu Yu and asked: "Little Rain, why have you never told your sister about it?"
"Autumn Rain smiled and said: 'This is a little secret.'"
"Uh." Yi Chi was also shocked.
Little secret? I'm going...
Although Yi Chi seemed calm on the surface, he had secretly inquired about Yi Tang.
"Do you know what book is golden and will still be very exciting after reading?" Yi Chi asked.
Yi Tang, who was in the exchange space, also thought to himself after hearing Yi Chi's words. For so many days, he had basically scanned half of the continent and knew much more than Yi Chi did.
"There are several golden books, but only one can excite people after reading it." Yitang said.
"What? Which one is it?" Yi Chi hastily asked.
"It's it." Yi Tang pointed to the void, and in an instant, a golden book appeared in the void, and its information also entered Yi Chi's mind.
The Forbidden Book: One Page, One World. Contains 800 small worlds, can form countless illusions, has the effect of confusing human and divine intelligence. The 800 small worlds contained within are all illusory worlds, cannot be compared to real small worlds, only can be used as an illusion to temper one's mind, can improve one's realm, using it as a formation heart can increase the effectiveness of the illusion array by tenfold, is a rare treasure. Exchange requires energy points: 5 billion points, 3rd-level energy gemstone x1.
Baby.
At first glance, Yi Chi was convinced that it was a treasure, but he didn't expect that if this thing were to be exchanged, it would be so valuable.
"Ah, a 3rd-grade Energy Gemstone! Huh, what is this 3rd-grade Energy Gemstone anyway?" Yi Chi had seen the grading of these energy gemstones more than once before, but even now, he still couldn't understand how they were graded.
"This you don't need to know now, let's talk about it when you have the Energy Gem." Yitang said disdainfully.
"Go, despise you." Yi Chi harshly retorted a sentence. He knew that since it was something Yi Tang didn't want to say, no matter how he begged, he wouldn't tell him anyway. Since the outcome was already decided, Yi Chi naturally wouldn't waste his effort anymore.
Instead, Yi Chi thought again, whether this golden book of the Qiu Xue family was the Phantom Seal Book or not, and if not, what would it be?
"Master, what are you thinking about?" The two sisters of the Qiu family looked at Yi Chi with puzzlement.
"Hehe, nothing, just thinking about that book." Yi Chi still didn't dare to confirm if this book was indeed that book, so naturally there was no need to tell them, and telling them would only add more trouble.
"Has anyone seen that book after the accident at your house?" Yi Chi asked the most crucial question.
The two of them looked at each other and shook their heads simultaneously, indicating they hadn't seen anything.
Furrowing his brow, Yi Chi became more and more certain that this matter was related to Yi Xing. However, since he had already obtained the book, why did he still keep the two Autumn Snow sisters?
"Master." said Qiuxue worriedly.
"Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Your affairs are mine too, and I won't ignore them. No matter who did it, I'll find out." Yi Chi smiled reassuringly.
If this matter is not resolved, Yi Chi himself will not be able to live in peace. If such a treasure falls into Yi Hang's hands, can he have good days ahead?
But over the years, this ease seems to have no special performance! This is another question mark.
"Could it be that he obtained the book, but couldn't use it, so he wanted to keep Autumn Snow and her sister around to find out something, but they didn't know anything. Or perhaps he didn't dare ask directly, but tried to get answers through indirect means, yet still didn't get what he wanted. That's why he could only keep them alive until now." Yi Chi thought to himself. Actually, this possibility was quite large, otherwise, Yi Chi really couldn't think of any reason why Yi Xing would spare the two sisters. Yi Chi didn't think Yi Xing was a fool, and since he wasn't a fool, he wouldn't do something as foolish as cutting grass without removing the roots.
Forget it, just thinking about it here won't come up with anything. Looks like I need to take some action now.
This day sealed the fate that the Ye family would never be peaceful again. Perhaps even the entire Floating Feather City wouldn't remain peaceful for much longer.
What kind of disaster will this impending storm bring to the long-peaceful Floating Feather City?
Everything is proceeding slowly...
