Chapter 1189: Chapter 1189: Return to Guan Mountain Island (8)

She glanced at that girl, nodded slightly to Xia Wu, and the two of them walked into the underground chamber.

After walking through the long passage of the underground chamber, they finally reached the secret room. Only then did She push the door open and step inside; Little Tao immediately threw herself down at She’s feet, sobbing: "Miss Han, Miss, Little Tao has finally waited for you! Wuuu, Miss, you must save our young master, Little Tao has been waiting these past years, every moment waiting for you to return to Guan Mountain Island, the young master, He only has you left whom He can trust..."

Little Tao was crying with snot and tears all over his face, and She’s brows knitted tight: "Stop crying and tell me clearly first, what exactly happened? Where is A ning? And Lord Guan, has something happened to Him?"

At the mention of Guan Hong, Little Tao lifted his head, grief written all over his face. In the dim light of the underground chamber, his tears streamed down: "The master, He, He, He’s gone already..."

"What?" She and Xia Wu couldn’t help but cry out at the same time: "What did you say?"

Guan Hong, as one of the Island Masters of the Thirty-two Islands of the Human Domain, though his status wasn’t extremely noble, was still someone of some standing, and he bore the responsibility of Guan Mountain Island. For something as huge as his death, the news should have spread throughout the entire Futu Realm; how could there be not a single piece of information?

Guan Hong is dead—then who is the Guan Hong currently in the Island Master Mansion?

The news She and the others had inquired about clearly said Guan Hong was still perfectly fine in the Island Master Mansion!

Little Tao cried: "Miss, the master died three years ago, just not long after you left. Guan Mountain Island was hit with a great calamity."

She’s whole body instantly plunged into an icy chill. Though She had no real personal bond with Guan Hong, Guan Shining called Her Sister, and She truly regarded him as a younger brother. So back then, considering that Guan Hong might have had his own helpless reasons, They left without a word, wanting Guan Shining to stay properly on Guan Mountain Island and not act willfully.

"Make things clear, what exactly happened! Where is A ning? What happened to A ning!" She’s voice couldn’t help but tremble slightly. Impossible, A ning can’t be in trouble, definitely can’t. He was still able to leave a message, that means when He was in danger He must have thought about coming to find Her.

He won’t be in trouble, absolutely won’t.

"The young master, the young master was taken away. I, I don’t even know who those people were... After you left, the young master was furious, saying He would never acknowledge you again, but He still stubbornly lived in that separate courtyard. He, He actually kept thinking about you in His heart all along, no matter who tried to persuade Him, He refused to leave. Then one day, the master hurried over to find Him, telling Him to leave at once, that someone was coming to take Him away and that He mustn’t go with them. But before the young master could even ask anything, a group of people arrived, the entire courtyard thick with the stench of blood. The master charged out, but, but he didn’t even have time to make a move before he was, before he was killed. Before he died, he only, only managed to say four words to the young master—’Don’t seek revenge.’"

"For some reason, the young master was unusually calm at the time. Before those people entered the house, He told me to escape through the underground passage, to wait on Guan Mountain Island and wait for you to return. I didn’t even have time to say a single word before the young master forced me to leave. When, when things finally quieted down and I tried to sneak back, it was already impossible to go back..."
