Chapter 233

Yun Qiyue was slightly surprised.

And the eyebrows under Ye Lanjue's mask raised slightly, "Speak."

Yun Yongyuan didn't speak immediately but looked at Yun Qiyue, then sighed, "Let's talk about it when we get back there."

After all, this was still the Marquis Mansion.

Some things were not suitable for outsiders to hear.

Yun Qiyue was confused and curious about Yun Yongyuan's actions.

But thinking that she would know the reason soon, she didn't feel anxious.

Soon, the three were sitting in the main hall of the General's Mansion, with Chen Feng guarding outside.

After the old man sat down, his expression became even heavier, and he didn't speak for a while.

After a long time, the old man said, "Between you and Huangyun Academy, who has greater ability?"

When the old man asked this, Yun Qiyue was surprised, not understanding why the old man was asking this.

However, seeing the old man's serious expression, Yun Qiyue didn't speak but looked at Ye Lanjue, wanting to see how he would answer the old man's question.

"Huangyun Academy?" Ye Lanjue repeated the name lightly on his lips, "Nothing special."

A place that was incredibly powerful throughout the entire continent only got the four words 'nothing special' in Ye Lanjue's mouth; one wondered if the people of Huangyun Academy would vomit blood if they knew.

While the old man thought this, he also felt that this seemed to be a matter of course.

After all, Ye Lanjue was not only powerful but also mysterious.

Although he was the adopted son of the late Emperor, everyone knew that Ye Lanjue's identity was absolutely not that simple.

"I want you to help me find someone." The old man said.

For these days, he had actually been thinking about this matter.

He hadn't been able to find him after searching for so many years, and originally he wanted to ask his eldest granddaughter to help find him.

But today he suddenly changed his mind.

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue was slightly surprised.

Who was Grandfather trying to find?

"Tell me." Ye Lanjue's tone remained faint, unaffected by the slightly serious atmosphere at the scene.

"My grandson." Yun Yongyuan said.

Yun Qiyue was slightly stunned.

Grandfather's grandson?

Grandfather's grandson, wouldn't that be those few from the first and third branches...

Yun Qiyue had just thought this when she saw her grandfather's gaze fall on her, and the gaze was very complicated.

Suddenly, Yun Qiyue had an inexplicable guess in her heart.

"Qiyue, you actually have a biological younger brother who is two years younger than you; his name is Yun Wenxiang."

When the old man said this, his expression was incredibly solemn, and what could be seen was that there was full sadness in his eyes.

And Yun Qiyue suddenly thought that when she introduced Xiang'er to Grandfather before, Grandfather was very excited.

Xiang'er, Xiang'er, weren't they read the same way?

Did she actually have someone with the same bloodline left in this world?

Suddenly, Yun Qiyue became a little nervous.

Then she heard Yun Yongyuan say, "Back then, when your mother was in danger, she was actually pregnant, and later your father knew that your mother had actually given birth to a younger brother for you, but... he was never found."

For so many years, besides looking for his son's remains, he had also been searching everywhere for his grandson.

However, he hadn't been able to find him, and there hadn't even been half a bit of news.

Sometimes, he even felt that it was impossible for him to find him, and the reason he went to look was just a habit.

It was as if, if he didn't look, he couldn't get past it in his heart.

"Grandfather—" Yun Qiyue suddenly spoke, "My mother... what exactly happened to her?"

After becoming Yun Qiyue of the General's Mansion, she knew her mother died early, but she didn't know what exactly happened.

Now hearing Grandfather say this, her intuition told her that things might not be that simple.

However, after Yun Qiyue asked this question, Yun Yongyuan didn't answer for a long time.

Finally, the old man simply stood up and said to Ye Lanjue, "Please help me find my grandson."

As he spoke, the old man turned and left.

Yun Qiyue didn't call the old man to stop, because she knew that even if she asked, when the old man didn't want to say, he definitely wouldn't say.

But precisely because of this, Yun Qiyue could see more clearly that her mother's death might also be a secret.

Yun Qiyue looked at Ye Lanjue.

At first, the look at Ye Lanjue was very serious.

Then, it changed bit by bit, and finally, it became a kind of fawning meaning with a few traces, "Imperial Uncle, are you omnipotent?"

Ye Lanjue: "Not quite."

Yun Qiyue: "Then Imperial Uncle, do you hear everything from all directions?"

Just, in order to achieve her goal, she didn't care about the usage of idioms.

Ye Lanjue looked at Yun Qiyue deeply, "If you want to know something, say it."

Yun Qiyue was happy, "About my mother..."

Ye Lanjue: "I can help you check."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue was inexplicably disappointed, "Imperial Uncle, don't you know?"

Ye Lanjue: "I haven't checked."

However, after a pause, Ye Lanjue added, "However, your mother is not from the Tianqi Continent."

Upon hearing this, Yun Qiyue was stunned; not from the Tianqi Continent, then where?

Seeing Yun Qiyue's confusion, Ye Lanjue said faintly, "The Hidden World."

The Hidden World?

Where was this?

For Yun Qiyue, this was basically a brand-new word.

However, soon, Ye Lanjue said a term Yun Qiyue had heard of.

"Kongming Academy."

Kongming Academy? Wasn't that at the other end of the continent?

Could it be that the so-called other end of the continent was actually the Hidden World.

What kind of world was the Hidden World?

Asking Ye Lanjue, Ye Lanjue kept his mouth shut.

Yun Qiyue suddenly wanted to go to the Library Pavilion of Jiuyuan.

Jiuyuan had said that the Library Pavilion recorded many things, and perhaps, there was information about the Hidden World.

Thinking this, Yun Qiyue decided to go to the Forbidden Land tonight.

Counting it up, she hadn't been there for a long time.

However, there was one thing Yun Qiyue also wanted to entrust to Ye Lanjue.

"Imperial Uncle, what is going on between the old Madam and my grandfather? Can you help me check?"

The relationship between Grandfather and the old Madam, and even with the first and third branches, was always strange.

Ye Lanjue looked at Yun Qiyue, and that look seemed to be saying that Yun Qiyue was really gossipy enough.

However, Ye Lanjue finally said faintly, "No need to check, I know..."

On the other side, Yun Jiande finally woke up.

As soon as he woke up, he saw Yun Yajie sitting by his bed.

"Jie'er—" Yun Jiande was a little excited.

But as soon as he moved, he realized that one of his sleeves was empty, and then he remembered that his hand was cut off because of Yun Qiyue.

Instantly, Yun Jiande's face twisted.

"Jie'er, have you avenged your father?"

Obviously, Yun Jiande trusted Yun Yajie's ability very much.

Upon hearing this, Yun Yajie said faintly, "No."

Upon hearing this, Yun Jiande was immediately unhappy, "Father was injured like this, how can you not avenge Father? You..."

By the time he said this, Yun Jiande met Yun Yajie's gaze and subconsciously shut his mouth.

Seeing Yun Jiande shut his mouth, Yun Yajie spoke slowly, "There is something I want to know..."
