“What? Terrible once, how can just a single blow destroy the ribs? How big is the power of its inner power?”

“Chairman Zhao, what should we do next?” zhiling asked waiting for a decision

“Please enjoy the dish, ladies” Xuejie voice that please

“Thank you very much, madam” replied the three girls simultaneously

“Do not hesitate like that. You can call me Aunt and my husband Uncle”

“Oh, okay. Thank you Uncle, Bibi”

“So, you're the daughter of Xiao Meili?” facing Yueji who was drinking his tea. Previously Yi Mei had advised against treating Yueji as someone of high standing due to being born from an Honorary concubine and an Emperor so that they kept the secret of Yueji's true identity.

“True, Uncle. My name is Yueji”

“You really look like your mother. Good at painting, have strong ambition and desire, and a good heart. To put yourself first and prioritize others. That's what makes it respected”

“Uncle really knows my family? Then, what about my father? Is Uncle also close to him?” yueji asked spontaneously

“Uh, your father. .” hangs

“My mom told you not that she's a good person too. Their lives are filled with the love of the people they help. Never mind, finish your dinner and return to the Inn immediately!” Yi Mei cut off the conversation that made Xuejie and Master Tao look at each other as it provoked curiosity from Yueji

I know they're not gonna tell me the truth. Relax, there is still time to know the truth Yueji said in his heart

“Good, sis!” he answered the orders of his brother

“Come, eat a lot. Spend everything!” urge Xuejie to distract

“Waah, very good at this painting. The brother who painted it? Can you teach me to make something this good?” said Xia Hua who was holding Yueji's painting book

“Xia Hua, take care of your attitude and give the book to them! Let them have dinner first!” peekkik lirih the Mother

“Iya bu”

“Force our daughter, she is indeed a little spoiled and often curious about many things” Xuejie continued

“It's okay Bi, we are happy to see Xia Hua want to learn painting. I also learn every day to be as good as Yueji, Yueji?” sahut Yi Cao looked at the dreamy Yueji looking at his food

“Yueji!” yi Mei's hand nudged Yueji's arm

“Oh, yes. Brother Yi Cao always helps me paint when my hands get tired. So we painted it together”

“So apparently. Never mind, we'll discuss that later and just finish your meal!” said Tao Yangli

After finishing the meal, they bid farewell to return to the inn. Yueji who saw Yi Mei talking to Mr. Yangli finally went ahead

“Uncle, thank you for the banquet and also keep this secret. It seems like Yueji is not at home with his curiosity so always looking for a gap to find out. But we'll keep it and keep quiet for his good”

“It must be hard, right? He is this big, it is natural to want to know about his true self. But you guys were great at closing it tight until now. Oh yes, when will you guys return to continue the journey?”

“Come, Uncle. Right now, our last money has been used to redeem the book so we are completely out of stock to get started again. Maybe for a while we will settle here to collect money back”

“Kalo so, my wife please bring some taels of gold for them. .” he said to the wife

“Do not, Uncle!”

“But, you need it now”

“We do need it, but we will also try to get it to our own ability. No matter how difficult our circumstances may be, if we still have the energy to let go of the difficulty, then we must do it ourselves and not rely on others. It will be a bad habit”

“It turns out Ren Xia raised you guys so well, I salute him. Well, it seems I can't force you. But remember, if you need something do not hesitate to tell us”

“Good Uncle, we will remember it. If so, Uncle and Aunt excuse us first” saluted and went after Yueji who had gone a long way

“Be careful on the road!” say them

Mom, what are they really hiding from me? Is it hard to tell me? I don't know when this trip will be over. I was afraid that when I came back to the Cave, I still did not know the secret of my mother and father's death. On the other hand, Yueji who was walking alone while thinking about something was immediately surprised to see a shadow that flashed in front of him.

“Who is that? Come out, don't mess with me!” he put on a alert position

The one that flashed was the same shadow as the attacker from Police Chief Zhao a few hours ago. They just look like a wind blowing fast. Suddenly, the shadow attacked him from behind. However, with Yueji's martial technique, he avoided the attack and maintained a vigilant position.

“Comeout! Don't be a coward!” his screeches fished the shadow out of its hiding place. Again and again, the shadow tried to attack Yueji from various directions. However, with his martial ability high enough, not a single attack hit him. Until at some point, Yueji began to examine the movement of the shadow and counterattacked quickly to hit the target and the shadow turned out to be someone who had fallen down after receiving a blow from Yueji

That mask? Where have I seen him? He thought of the mask worn by an existing person

in front of him.

“Who are you? Why are you suddenly attacking me?” look closely at the face behind the mask.

“Huh, don't ask much. I'll end your life now! Hiaatt. .” slowly rise and re-attack Yueji. The fight was inevitable, they both issued their mainstay moves and caused some objects around them to be destroyed

"The power inside is very strong, if exposed it will be wretched" he said

The battle lasted for quite a while, until Yi Mei and Yi Cao arrived.

“Yueji!” call him in unison which makes Yueji off guard and hit his attack on his back to fall down and unconscious. Seeing the fainted Yueji, the man did not stop and continued his attack but was driven away by an arrow from Yi Cao. They immediately approached Yueji who was already helpless and vomited blood.

“Yueji, awake! Yueji!” said Yi Mei trying to wake up. Just as he was about to take out his manager, suddenly Zhao and Zhiling police and some of his troops saw Yi Mei and Yi Cao squatting down on Yueji to be attacked by someone from behind and shouted.

“STOP!!” seeing the royal army approaching him, the person immediately went to escape and left them.

“What is with this lady and who is that person?” tanyanya who crouched down to see the state of Yueji

“We don't know, Police Chief Zhao. We intend to return to the inn, when we get here, they have fought and it looks like our sister was injured by him” Yi Mei said with anxiety and tears that almost fell

The wounds are the same as my soldiers. Is the person who attacked them the same person?

“Police chief Zhao, please help us bring him back to the Inn!” doorways

“Alright, if so raise it to my back!” they also brought Yueji back to the inn to receive treatment there

How Yueji's condition is going to be next. Stay tune. . .
