The moonlight was light, but the footsteps seemed so heavy that every step was extremely difficult.

Su Yunxuan let Su Changfeng lead her forward.

Since Su Changfeng didn't speak, she didn't speak either.

The two walked in silence for a long time, and then they heard the faint sound of a baby crying in front of them.

This was followed by the cheering of two older children.

"Yaya, be good, don't cry. Huzi, learn to bark like a dog for him."

"Wang Wang Wang..."

After a few loud barking sounds, there was a burst of children's laughter, "Hahaha..."

The laughter was obviously a mixture of too many different sound qualities, yet it sounded unusually pure and beautiful.

It echoes in this quiet canyon, as clear and melodious as a wind chime, and so warm that it seems to be able to heal all the pain in the world.

Su Yunxuan quickly followed, looked at Su Changfeng in shock and asked, "Why is there a child's voice here?"

Su Changfeng didn't answer, nor did he look at her. He pulled her along even faster.

After walking around a few large rocks, the view suddenly became clear. Su Yunxuan then noticed that there were four or five thatched houses hidden behind the huge rocks.

The sounds all came from a group of children in front of the house.

At first glance, there are more than ten of them.

They were chattering about something and gathered in a circle.

In the innermost room, the oldest girl was holding a baby who looked to be just one month old in her arms. She was rocking the baby gently and humming a song, as if trying to coax the baby to sleep...

"Brother Qiongzhi?" Suddenly, the little girl looked over, stood up and called excitedly.

That height is about the same as Zixi.

The children surrounding her also turned their heads immediately.

In the blink of an eye, the group of children rushed to them and formed a circle around Su Changfeng again.

They tilted their little heads back and called out "Brother Qiongzhi" in unison over and over again with joy.

Su Yunxuan looked at Su Changfeng in surprise.

He lowered his eyes and looked intently at the group of children. His gentle brows were relaxed, and with a smile on his lips he rubbed the little heads that were crowded under his eyes.

"Have the people been brought here?" An old man's voice came from the thatched hut.

Su Yunxuan looked over when she heard the voice and saw an old man with gray hair standing at the door, looking over here with sharp eyes.

He waved to the group of children who were looking at him.

The group of children then obediently ran aside.

In groups of three or four, some were chasing and playing, while others continued to gather around the girl who was coaxing the baby...

"Let's go." Su Changfeng's voice sounded in her ears. He took her hand again and walked towards the old man.

The old man turned his head and looked behind them, as if looking for something.

"Ayi didn't come with us." Su Changfeng said.

The old man smiled, shook his head and said to Su Yunxuan: "That girl is delicious and fun. She must have caused you a lot of trouble, right?"

Su Yunxuan immediately came to her senses, smiled, shook her head at the old man, and bowed.

The old man nimbly jumped to the side to avoid it.

Su Changfeng introduced Su Yunxuan, "This is Xuan Huangzi, Ayi's master."

Su Yunxuan wanted to bow again when she heard this. Su Changfeng held her back and said, "He hates those red tapes the most..."

Before he could finish his words, the old man turned and went straight inside.

Seeing Su Yunxuan looking at Xuan Huangzi who was leaving with a puzzled look on her face, Su Changfeng explained: "He doesn't like crowds either."

"What about these children?" Su Yunxuan became more and more confused.

Su Changfeng tightened Su Yunxuan's hand, took her hand and turned to the children and said, "They are orphans of the war between Fenglan and Yunsheng."

"What?" Su Yunxuan couldn't believe it.

"Come with me to another place." Su Changfeng said again, and then he took her hand, said hello to the group of children and left.

This time, the road was all uphill.

The two climbed with difficulty for about half an hour and arrived at the top of a cliff.

There is actually an osmanthus tree on the cliff.

Su Yunxuan ran over happily and raised her hand to touch the tree texture. She intuitively felt that this tree was similar to the one that lived in her mother's Fengqi Palace during her childhood.

It’s been a hundred years, right?

She looked at Su Changfeng.

He nodded at her, as if he knew exactly what she was thinking.

"It should be a hundred years old. Xuan Huangzi said that when he was three years old, his master took him back to the clouds. When he first came to this cliff, this tree was already here."

Su Yunxuan tilted her head back, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath of the fragrance in the air.

Su Changfeng walked to her side, took her hand again and walked towards the cliff.

Su Yunxuan stood on the edge of the cliff, and under the vast starry sky, her vision suddenly became open.

When her eyes fell on the resting place of her father and mother, Su Yunxuan tilted her head to look at Su Changfeng and asked, "Brother Changfeng has been standing here all this time?"

Su Changfeng nodded slightly, raised his hand and pointed to a place further away and said, "That is Yougu Pass, where the Fenglan and Yunsheng armies are facing each other."

Su Yunxuan looked in the direction of his finger.

The plain was surrounded by mountains and seemed to be hidden in the shadows of the mountains, looking much darker than other places.

For some reason, she felt inexplicably sad. Su Yunxuan asked, "Were those children brought here by Brother Changfeng?"

Su Changfeng turned around, smiled at her, and said softly, "It's me, and it's not me."

"What do you mean by that?"

Su Changfeng raised his hand and smoothed Su Yunxuan's brow.

"That place was built by Xuan Huangzi's eldest sister several decades ago to take in children who lost their parents in the war. I heard from Xuan Huangzi that her eldest sister took in 131 children at her peak."

As he spoke, Su Changfeng seemed to remember something, and he sighed lightly, saying regretfully: "But later, his senior sister left, and that place slowly became deserted."

Su Yunxuan listened carefully.

Su Changfeng continued, "It was also by chance that I encountered Xuan Huangzi and several children being troubled by the soldiers guarding the city at Yougu Pass. I helped them and that's how I became acquainted with him. I got to know this place and have been doing my best to help since then."

"Brother Changfeng brought me here to persuade me to give up revenge?" Su Yunxuan suddenly changed the subject.

Su Changfeng stared at her without answering.

He pulled her to sit down on the edge of the cliff and told her the history of this place.

He said that Yougu was once a treasure trove of medicinal herbs for the Kingdom of Chaoxia many years ago.

Haiyue City was once the capital of Chaoxia Kingdom.

Asaka is a tiny country famous for its medicine.

He raised his hand and pointed to a few places, telling her their names.

Cuifeng, Yunmeng, and Xihe, like Yougu, were once part of the territory of the Zhaoxia Kingdom.

However, many years ago, the King of Chaoxia believed what the Queen Demon said and rashly sent troops to attack Fenglan.

But in the end he was defeated by Feng Lan, who took away Yougu and Cuifeng.

Not long after, Yun Sheng also joined in and divided Danxia together with Feng Lan.

From then on, Danxia ceased to exist.

After Su Changfeng finished speaking, he saw Su Yunxuan staring blankly into the distance.

She frowned again, pursed her red lips, and still showed her stubbornness.

Su Changfeng clenched his other fist and asked cruelly, "Do you know who led the troops to destroy Chaoxia?"

Su Yunxuan looked over and shook her head.

Su Changfeng said hoarsely: "Yun Sheng's is Xu Wang Su Dongxu, and Feng Lan's is your grandfather Lu Zhenyuan."

Hearing this, Su Yunxuan's eyes suddenly opened slightly, her eyeballs rolled slightly, and then she lowered her eyes, avoiding Su Changfeng's sight.

Su Changfeng turned around suddenly, pinched Su Yunxuan's shoulders and said, "Yunxuan, I know that the departure of your father and mother makes you very painful. However, there are many people in this world who will lose their loved ones and loved ones."

"The past cannot be changed, but the future can be changed. Stay with me, okay?"
