to live for a few more years."I understand."Feng Lingxi looked at the smile in the Empress's eyes and could only follow her lead for now, trying to figure out her intentions before saying anything els...Luo Li saw Feng Lingxi hurriedly collect the letter, her eyes sweeping over the several elders behind her.

"I have brought them to you for disposal."

The moment Luoli spoke, Feng Ling smelled the overwhelming hostility. She was going to deal with her

If she remembered correctly, these were the top five elders of the Yao clan, the backbone of the Yao clan while their matriarch was away. Asking her to punish them wouldn't this intentionally create conflict between her and them

"Chieftain, I don't quite understand your words. What's wrong with the elders Do you want me to handle this"

Feng Ling xi motioned for them to sit down, but besides Luoli, who dared to sit

"Xiao Li, please serve tea."

"You didn't let me find out what they said today, I just asked them, and they said it was greed that made them momentarily lose hold of the Holy Master, which caused your mother to fall off the cliff."

Luo Li's words caused Feng Ling Xi's beautiful eyes to sink. What was meant by momentary greed

"What does greed mean"

Feng Lingxi looked at Yao Chu and the others, "Is my mother really a traitor to her clan"

"The Saintess, please calm your anger. The Holy Lord has not betrayed the clan. She merely had such thoughts and did not steal the treasure. This doesn't count as betrayal, so..."

“So what You killed all her shadow guards, drove her to jump off a cliff, and now you’re telling me it was just a moment of greed So my mother deserved to fall off the cliff Now you're all here enjoying yourselves, eating and sleeping comfortably, while my mother is out there in the freezing cold, lost somewhere between life and death, is that right”

Yao Shu's face was sullen, but he didn't dare to confront her. He could only try his best to suppress his dissatisfaction with Feng Ling Xi.

"My subordinates will do everything they can to find the Holy Lord."

"Then what are you waiting for Go now and find him. Tell me when you do."

Feng Lingxi stood up, looking at their suppressed anger, and reminded them, "I believe the elders and clan chief will keep their promises."

Luo Li saw Feng Ling being carried out, and didn't say anything. She just furrowed her brow slightly.

"As you command, I shall dispatch someone to investigate."

"Chief, may I go to the forbidden zone to take a look"

Feng Ling Xi asked for permission, this forbidden zone is a place that the Yao clan members cannot enter. She wanted to go, the chieftain was there, she had to ask for permission, only in this way could she be considered to have done her duty, so that the tribe could not criticize her.

"Alright, I'll go with you. Lead the way."

Luo Li glanced at Yao Chu, and her commanding tone left Yao Chu with no room to explain. He hurriedly led them towards the forbidden zone.

The forbidden area was located in the rear mountains of Yao's clan. These days, there was heavy snowfall, with thick snow covering both sides of the mountain path. As Feng Xue passed through the mountain path, she saw a mountain trail that seemed to have no end, winding its way upwards. Both sides were paved with stones, and the path continued to ascend.

The restricted area was just above this mountain path. Stepping on the snow, leaving a very deep footprint, Yao Shu and others led the way ahead. After about a stick of incense, they reached the restricted area, which was located at the waist of the mountain. There was a stone gate there, with a large stone next to it, carved with the words "Restricted Area".

“This is forbidden ground.”

Yao Shu gestured to Feng Lingxi with a beckoning hand. Feng Lingxi raised her eyes and looked around. There was still a long way to go inside this forbidden area. Many stone houses surrounded them, like a labyrinth, standing on the mountainside.

"Grand Elder, you should lead the way. I'm unfamiliar with this forbidden zone. What if I take a wrong turn or open one of the stone gates That would be bad for the Yao Clan's rules."

Yao Shu originally wanted to speak, but when he met the patriarch's cold eyes warning him, he hurriedly said, "Rest assured, Holy Maiden, the forbidden area has no effect on you."

"Ineffective against me Why"

Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow, looking at Yao Chu's gritted teeth. Her gaze fell on Luo Li. Could he be referring to what happened in front of the chief

"The Saintess is the future Holy Lord, and this forbidden zone is naturally accessible to the Holy Lord."

"If that's the case, why was my mother forced to jump off a cliff when she came here"

Feng Ling Xi's questions were so sharp that Yao Shu and the others clenched their fists. The pairs of eyes hidden with resentment, wishing they could strangle her, made Feng Ling Xi frown slightly, her face full of confusion as she asked.

"Chief, the Elder hasn't said anything. Why don't you tell me What exactly is this Yao Clan forbidden zone In my understanding, a forbidden zone naturally means no one is allowed to enter. What exactly is hidden inside"

The Tomb of the Sacred Lords Throughout the Yao Dynasty.

Feng Lingxi was frightened and hurriedly took two steps back. Looking at Luoli, seeing him nod affirmatively, Feng Lingxi patted her chest and scanned the surroundings. "That is to say, every stone house here is a tomb of a Saint Lord"

"Not bad."

Feng Lingxi swallowed nervously, "So the forbidden area is a tomb"

The so-called Saint Master's Tomb is not only the burial place for generations of Saint Masters, but also their legendary experiences throughout their lives are recorded in the stone house. After a Saint Master dies, they are buried inside. Besides the buried Saint Master, only the next generation of Saint Master knows what else is inside.

"So, there must be many secrets hidden in this tomb of the Holy Lord"

Luo Li nodded, "That's why this place is called the 'Forbidden Zone'."

"So my mother was driven here by them, in other words, she fled here and dug her own grave"

Feng Lingxi unconsciously swept over Yao Chu and the others, looking at the forbearance in their eyes, a cold light flashed across her eyes.

"This forbidden zone is indeed ineffective against you. You are the next generation's Saint Master, to be precise, the current Yao Clan Saint Master is you. There's just a coronation ceremony missing. If you want to go in, no one can stop you."

As soon as the words left his mouth, Yao Zhi couldn't hold back any longer and reminded him, "Clan leader, I think we should find the Holy Master first. What if she's still alive Wouldn't this coronation ceremony make her feel embarrassed"

Feng Lingxi looked at Yao Zhi, the smile on her lips turning colder. "The Third Elder is right, there's no need to rush this ascension ceremony. My mother's life and death are the priority. Since this place is the tomb of all past holy ancestors, in other words, my ancestors, I should pay my respects to them."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking, knelt down, and respectfully kowtowed three times to these tombs. Her forehead was still covered with snow, when Xiaoli wiped it for her, revealing a slightly flushed forehead.

"Would you like to go in and have a look"

Feng Lingxi looked at Luo Li, "Come on, let's go see the cliff my mother fell down."

Luo Li called out to her, "I'm talking about this stone house. You can go inside and visit. Every tomb inside has the legendary accounts of the revered ancestors. Don't you want to take a look"

"Then I ask you, besides the legends, are there also their coffins inside"

As soon as Feng Lingxi tilted her head, she gave him a withering look. “Who wants to be spied on even after death Not even in peace! Besides, I don’t even know if my mother is alive or dead, so how could I have the heart to look into their legendary lives”

Feng Lingxi looked at Yao Chu, "Grand Elder, please lead the way. I want to see the cliff where my mother fell. I wonder which one is higher, hers or the one I once fell from"

As Feng Lingxi took the lead and walked past, Luo Li narrowed her eyes and caught up with Feng Lingxi.ould be so simple, he thought death was that easy. He wanted to die so simply, but he also needed Xiaomi's approval. If Xiaomi said it was okay for him to die without suffering, then she would give hi...
