Chapter 551 Breakthrough again!
"As time went by, the Moon God Palace was somewhat ready to give up. That’s when a powerhouse with the surname Yun stepped forward, volunteering to give it another try!"
Yun Wei said this with an unusual glint in her eyes, and when she mentioned "a powerhouse with the surname Yun," Yun Xiao shivered all over.
These two siblings had never met their father and they did not take their mother’s surname, Shang, but had always used the surname Yun. Could it be that the so-called powerhouse of the Moon God Palace with the surname Yun had some connection to them?
Seemingly noticing the confusion in Yun Xiao’s eyes, Yun Wei gently shook her head and continued, "In the end, that senior of the Moon God Palace with the surname Yun did go, but never came back. It was only because Master has a good relationship with an elder of the Moon God Palace that we know this much."
"However..."
Yun Wei paused here, then went on to say, "Master said that after that senior with the surname Yun disappeared, the Star-picking Tower quietly took some action, seemingly in search of someone. As for what really happened, no one knows!"
"Does sister mean that senior with the surname Yun succeeded?"
Yun Xiao’s eyes brightened at the thought of a possibility, but then he questioned again, "That couldn’t be, for if he had succeeded, why didn’t he return to the Moon God Palace? After all, the Blood Moon Jade originally belonged to the Moon God Palace, and I guess there’s probably no safer place throughout the Nine Dragons Continent than the Moon God Palace, right?"
"Perhaps you have a point, but my guess is, that senior with the surname Yun might have discovered something when he got the Blood Moon Jade, and that’s why he didn’t return to the Moon God Palace."
Yun Wei had seen more of the world following her master through the years and thought deeper than Yun Xiao. Moreover, she didn’t believe it was absolutely safe inside the Moon God Palace—perhaps this lowest plane, the Hidden Dragon Continent, might be a bit safer?
"Little brother, I’ve told you so much just to let you know the importance of the Blood Moon Jade. Now, Shen Xingmou might have a treasure on her that can sense the aura of the Blood Moon Jade. When sister isn’t around, you must be extra careful!"
After spilling all her thoughts, Yun Wei heaved a gentle sigh. Yun Xiao couldn’t bear to let her go, but how could she bear to leave this brother she had not seen for three years?
