The minutes ticked by. It was unknown whether Grandma Gu was recalling the things she’d heard, or was weighing what could be said and what could not.

  “Since you came to ask about it, I’m sure you should know about the Battle at Spirit Water clearly.”


  Even though Grandma Gu couldn’t see her, Ming Shu answered with a smile. “Yes.”


  Grandma Gu nodded.

  She cast her dull eyes in the other direction, and there was another eerie silence.

  After a long moment, Grandma Gu began to talk in a voice full of vicissitudes. “At that time, invited by the Long family, the Xi family went to the Spirit Water. The Xi family didn’t know that they wanted to attack the pagoda back then, and didn’t know there would be the Battle at Spirit Water later.”


  Qi Yu secretly put a label on the bottom of his heart: Attacked the pagoda first, then it was the Battle at Spirit Water.

  The Xi family was equally matched with the Long family at that time, both of which were big families on the Xuanzi Continent.

  As for how the Long family invited the Xi family, it was unknown, but the result was, the Xi family accepted the invitation.

  Grandma Gu didn’t elaborate on attacking the pagoda and the Battle at Spirit Water. She directly skipped them. “After the Battle at Spirit Water, the world was divided into three parts. The Xi family did gain some benefits at that time, but we suffered great losses.”


  Wars were breaking out on the three continents. Some people asked the Xi family to choose sides, but the Xi family didn’t want to participate.

  Then the thing the Xi family got its hands on became a time bomb.

  The Xi family encountered crisis and the clansmen were hunted down.

  From that moment, the Xi family’s nightmare began.

  It only took them a short time to fall from a prosperous clan to a declined one.

  At the end of the road, their ancestor who got that ability tried to use it to reverse time.

  Grandma Gu paused. “Since you came to ask, Lady, you must know what ability my ancestor got, right?”


  “Yes.”


  Grandma Gu’s voice was weighed with a sigh. “Pitifully, the ancestor failed.”


  “But since then, the ancestor had become a little strange. I don’t know the specific situation, as I didn’t live at that time.”


  After that, there were more days of being hunted down for the Xi family, and one day, the Xi family’s ancestor was missing.

  Some clansmen said that they saw the ancestor use that power before disappearing.

  Others said that the ancestor couldn’t bear the present situation and left them.

  Either way, the ancestor never returned in the end.

  There weren’t many clansmen left in the Xi family then. They hid from their hunders and concealed their identities to this day.

  Grandma Gu: “The Xi family has long left the stage of history. As the Xi family’s later generation, I never expected to tell the former stories for the ancestor one day.”


  In fact, these matters were not unspeakable.

  In those days, the Xi family was also a victim, wasn’t it?

  A good family was torn apart by those people.

  Ming Shu asked, “About that ancestor, what’s his name?”


  Grandma Gu frowned and answered a moment later, “His first name was Heng.”


  Xi Heng……

  That was all Grandma Gu knew. Ming Shu got up and said goodbye to them.

  “Lady.”


  Grandma Gu called her.

  “Is something happening?”


  Suddenly someone came to inquire about the old days, although she didn’t know what happened, Grandma Gu felt worried as the Xi family was suddenly involved.

  “The Xi family has long disappeared, no matter what happens outside, you won’t participate in it. Why bother asking?”


  Grandma Gu was stunned, and nodded after a while. “Yes…… Yes……”


  When the Xi family first started to conceal their identities, there were also clansmen trying to get the Xi family back to its original glory.

  But in the end, they all had to live in this village.

  As time continued, there were only a few who remembered they were the Xi family.

  Ming Shu left the courtyard with Qi Yu.

  After getting out of the village, she looked down and fell to her thoughts.

  If this was true, then the little demon’s apocalypse should be this Xi Heng’s.

  As for how it came to Qi Yu’s hands……

  Perhaps Xi Heng had left this world and arrived in Qi Yu’s world in the end. Probably because of his ability and the difference in time……

  Speaking of which……

  She didn’t seem to have asked Qi Yu where he got the apocalypse.

  Well……

  “Come here, baby.”


  Qi Yu: “.……”


  Qi Yu took a step back instinctively. “Wife, what do you want to say.”


  “Why are you so far away from me?” Ming Shu pulled him back and put her hand on his waist. “Do you think I will eat you?”


  Qi Yu murmured, “If so, I’ll be happy.”


  “What were you saying?”


  Qi Yu answered immediately, “You look very pretty today, wife.”


  Ming Shu pinched his face. “Okay, enough. Let me ask you, where did you get the Apocalypse?”


  Qi Yu’s expression changed a little.

  “Didn’t I tell you I killed my mother?”


  “Yes.” Ming Shu tightened her hold.

  “When I was born, our world was already like that. People formed resistance forces, and the later city clusters began to grow in size.

  “But at that time, there was no Time Control Department.

  “One day, my father received a message that someone had found a strange building. My father was with my mother and we went together because it was an emergency.”


  Qi Yu suddenly stopped.

  He looked at the void, thoughts floating away.

  “What happened later?”


  “Later……”


  Qi Yu murmured.

  Later, the aliens appeared.
