xpression grew more and more dangerous as he descended down to the ground near the ruins.

Chang Wuji and the five Imperial Advisors quickly rushed over to Jian Chen’s side, but before they could say anything, Jian Chen spoke first, “Uncle Chang, what has happened here? How did the Changyang clan be reduced to such a state?” Jian Chen’s voice was filled with concern and his expression with worry.
In his recent return, he had no idea just what could possibly happen for the Changyang clan to undergo such a tremendous transformation.

Chang Wuji let out a long breath of air, “Fourth master, ten Heaven Saint Masters from the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom had only just came by with Bi Dao and his Majesty in their grasps.
They had spoken some claptrap about capturing you, but after a battle between them and us, the Changyang clan was inadvertently damaged by the fallout.”

Hearing this, a sudden explosion of killing intent burst from Jian Chen’s body.
A fierce glare started to grow brighter and brighter almost as if he was a bloodthirsty tiger whose stare could cause any person to shiver in fear.
The temperature within the immediate area instantly dropped several degrees.
Some of the weaker people around them began to feel as if they were submerged within ice-cold water and they began to shiver.

“Heavenly Eagle Kingdom!” Jian Chen spat out one word at a time in his anger as his fist began to crack from being held so tightly.
This time, the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom had truly infuriated him.
Suddenly, a thought crossed Jian Chen’s mind.
His expression immediately changed as he hurriedly asked, “Uncle Chang, what of my parents? Are they alright?”

“The leader and the fourth lady are underground with only minor injuries.” Chang Wuji spoke.


Before he could finish speaking, Jian Chen had already disappeared into a blur, headed toward the underground rooms.

The underground rooms were about a hundred meters deep and were very dim.
Despite that, it was very spacious and could fit well over a thousand people in there with even more rooms to accommodate them all.

The very moment Jian Chen entered the rooms below, he could see several of the higher ranking members of the clan and their guards come walking out.

“Fourth master!”

Some of the guards instantly saluted him when they saw him.

“Where is my mother!” Jian Chen immediately demanded with a dangerous gleam in his eyes, causing the guard to avoid looking him in the eye.

“The fourth lady is in the biggest room.” The guard answered quickly.

He immediately ran past them and into the biggest room in the underground area.
However, it would be more appropriate to call these rooms caves, instead, due to their appearance.

After entering the room, Jian Chen not only found his parents, but even the oldest aunt Ling Long, second aunt Yu Fengyan and third aunt Bai Yushuang.
His third brother Changyang Ke was by his mother’s side while several other men covered in blood sat by some of the traumatized women.
Right by the entrance, Ming Dong and Dugu Feng stood guard.
When their eyes met, they didn’t need to speak to convey a conversation.

“Mother, are you alright!” Jian Chen quickly walked forward with a worried expression.
In this moment, Jian Chen looked at the wound on his mother’s head with an aghast expression, “Mother, you’re hurt.”


“Xiang’er, your mother is fine.
Go look for Yue’er, her injuries are even worse than mine.” Bi Yuntian didn’t care for her own injuries, and instead was extremely concerned for her future daughter-in-law.

At this moment, the princess lay on a bed with an extremely pale face that was scrunched up in pain.

Arriving by the bedside, Jian Chen began to inspect the princess for the extent of her wounds.
A solemn expression began to overtake his expression as he made his diagnosis.
A stone was lodged in the princess’ left shoulder, leaving a finger-sized hole within it.
There was also a single wound on the left side of her back from where another stone had struck it.
A stone had entered her body and nearly injured her heart.
The other inner organs had also been struck, leaving behind a dangerous looking internal injury.

“Xiang’er, your mother knows you have the ability to heal Yue’er, please save her.
She has an extremely dangerous wound.” Bi Yuntian whispered to Jian Chen in concern, afraid that the princess would die from her wounds.

Jian Chen nodded.
“The battle outside has stopped.
Mother, you should go out to check, I’ll treat princess You Yue.”

Bi Yuntian had no objections to that.
After a few more words, she left the room, leaving Jian Chen behind with the princess.

“Brother, we’ll head up first.” Ming Dong pulled Dugu Feng away from the room.
If this was any other time, then Ming Dong would have taken his time to fire question after question to Jian Chen.
Ming Dong didn’t have the heart to, since such an event happened to the Changyang clan.

After everyone had left, Jian Chen closed the door gingerly behind him and walked back to the bed with a complex expression.
With barely a few days of her living in the clan compound, the princess had been heavily injured.
This made Jian Chen feel extremely apologetic almost as if he had personally let her down.

Despite the wounds on the princess being quite heavy, she was still awake and capable of clear thought.
Her limpid eyes had a strange luster to them as she stared nervously at Jian Chen.
Her pale face had a slightly red hue that revealed her shyness.
In her heart, despite the troubling moment, she couldn’t help but have a nervous delight from such a situation.

Jian Chen sat by her bedside and spoke gently, “Princess You Yue, it may be a little painful in the next few moments, please try to endure.”
