644 One Step, Lonely Goose; One Step, Demon (3)

Xu Qing stood on the third level of the archives and looked at the sky through the wooden window. The mountain breeze blew over, blowing his long hair and revealing his eyes that reflected the moonlight.

“If I want to investigate the clues, it will take a very long time with just my strength.” Xu Qing mumbled inwardly and slowly frowned.

He couldn’t tell anyone about this, including the Sword Holders who were guarding this place. This was because if the Palace Master’s judgment was correct, the person behind the scenes who killed the County Governor would definitely have terrifying authority.

Hence, Xu Qing didn’t dare to place his trust even in the Sword Holders.

Because the cost of misplaced trust could be a matter of life and death for him.

After pondering for a long time, Xu Qing checked some more dossiers and finally left the archives, and walked through the quiet and empty Sword Holding Court.

The closer it was to dawn, the darker the world became as the bright moon dimmed. This was an inevitable process before dawn.

During this time, the wind would often carry a chill that surpa.s.sed its usual coolness. It brushed against Xu Qing’s body, causing his Daoist robe sleeves to flutter in the breeze.

Xu Qing walked silently on Mount Morning Glow. He was going to look for his parents’ graves to pay his respects.

He had waited for this day for a very, very long time.

Xu Qing’s heart was filled with fluctuating emotions and thoughts, like ripples spreading across the surface of a calm lake.

They couldn’t be pressed down or buried.

As they grew increasingly intense, Xu Qing’s body trembled which was very rare for him.

Xu Qing didn’t control it either. He closed his eyes and his perception spread out. Following the guidance of his bloodline, he silently walked forward and pa.s.sed by a house. There was bloodline resonance here.

He pa.s.sed by a mountain rock. There was bloodline resonance here as well.

When he walked past a tall pavilion, he felt the bloodline resonance there as well.

Xu Qing walked for a long time and pa.s.sed through many areas until he finished walking through half of Mount Morning Glow that was revealed above the abyssal sea.

Finally, at the top of the mountain, he stopped and stood there in a daze.

The wind was even stronger here. The pitch-black sky also slowly turned red as the sun rose, like it was burning. Gradually, light penetrated the clouds and landed on the abyssal sea, landing on various mountain peaks and illuminating Mount Morning Glow.

Rainbow light emitted from every mountain rock on Mount Morning Glow. After reflecting the sunlight, it formed a gorgeous halo, becoming the sole spectacle at this moment.

From afar, it looked like the rainbow-colored mountain on the black sea seemed to have become the source of all light, trying to compete with the sun for brilliance.

Its light enveloped the surroundings. As the sky became brighter and the sun rose into the sky, the rainbow-colored light of Mount Morning Glow also became brighter, continuously emitting dazzling multicolored light in all directions.

Why was it that he had walked through all the areas and every location had the bloodline resonance?

Why couldn’t he find the graves even though his senses told him that they were near him?

“I buried our parents on Mount Morning Glow.” This was what Crown Prince Purple Green had told Xu Qing back then.

Right now, Xu Qing understood the meaning behind it.

“Father and Mother’s grave is this Mount Morning Glow itself… They are buried in the depths of this mountain, so the moment I stepped onto this mountain, I sensed the guidance of my bloodline.”

Xu Qing mumbled and looked at Mount Morning Glow under his feet. He wanted to enter the interior of this mountain but Mount Morning Glow was special. With his cultivation, he couldn’t do this.

A long, long time pa.s.sed.

Xu Qing silently knelt down. His hands touched the mountain rocks and he lowered his head.

No one here could sense his existence, and naturally, no one saw that as Xu Qing lowered his head, water droplets flowed down his face and the tip of his nose, drenching the mountain rocks like ink.

Only the rainbow-colored light on Mount Morning Glow continued to spread, as though it had transformed into a gentle hand that was gently patting Xu Qing’s trembling body.

After an unknown period of time, Xu Qing’s forehead touched the mountain rocks.

“Father… Mother, may you rest in peace…”

Xu Qing mumbled with a shaky voice that only he could hear.

Finally, he lifted his head. There was no trace of any tears on his face.

He stood up and walked down the mountain silently.

Endless sunlight scattered down, illuminating Xu Qing’s back view and also completely illuminating Mount Morning Glow.

The multicolored light was dazzling, gorgeous, and bright.

Xu Qing left.

His desire had never been complicated. He only wanted to come to Mount Morning Glow and pay his respects to his parents’ graves.

After a long time, Xu Qing, who had walked to the foot of the mountain, turned his head and looked at the rainbow-colored mountain for a long time.

“In the future, when I have no more regrets, I want to stay here.”

Xu Qing muttered softly and closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again after a few breaths, he retracted all the thoughts. His eyes revealed coldness again as he walked away, his footsteps becoming increasingly firm.

He was going to a canyon under the abyssal sea outside Mount Morning Glow. That place wasn’t far from Mount Morning Glow and was the last place in the records where the morning glow formed.

He was going to check if there were any clues.

The world under the abyssal sea was different from the world above. The fog isolated the sunlight, and the cold isolated the warmth.

Xu Qing followed Mount Morning Glow into the darkness. His speed became faster and faster, transforming into an afterimage that moved deeper and deeper into the darkness until he reached the bottom of Mount Morning Glow.
