1075 One Fled
When the people from the palace killed their way in, most of the Hai family did not know what was going on. They did not even have time to escape. Of the hundreds of people in the Hai family, more than half had died from the chaotic arrows, and the rest had all been killed by the experts who had barged in.
The richest family in the Tongxuan Continent had been destroyed by the Ye royal family just like that.
Under the protection of the family experts, Hai Lan and a few descendants of the Hai family finally escaped from the hell-like Hai residence. However, even if they escaped from the Hai residence, it was still not safe. There were still people from the palace guarding outside, and they were all experts. As long as they saw anyone escape from the Hai family, they would immediately kill them.
“Ah…” When Hai Lan saw the incoming attack, in a moment of desperation, she pulled her younger brother beside her and threw him out as a shield. She also took the opportunity to throw out her only spirit artifact and use it to stall the people who wanted to kill her before escaping quickly.
By the time the people outside had finished off the spirit artifact Hai Lan had thrown out, she had already escaped without a trace.
“One escaped. It’s Hai Lan from the Hai family.”
“Do you think a pampered heiress can escape? The Imperial Capital has already been sealed. She can only enter and can’t leave. She can’t escape. Immediately send people to chase after her. We can’t let anyone from the Hai family off. Otherwise, if the Empress blames us, the ones who will die will be us.”
The Empress’s orders were to annihilate the entire Hai family. They could not let anyone off, so Hai Lan had to die.
Hai Lan had actually not escaped far. Instead, she hid in a broken basket and waited quietly, not even daring to move. She was frightened out of her wits and panicked. She was so frightened that she was at a loss.
At this moment, she suddenly recalled what the Ancestor had said when he was alive, including the marriage he had arranged for her.
The Old Ancestor said that the Hai family would have a huge calamity in the future. If they wanted to survive this calamity, someone had to marry Gu Jinyuan, because Gu Jinyuan’s fate was precious and could change the Hai family’s fate.
Initially, she did not believe such nonsense, especially when Gu Jinyuan lost his status as the Young Master of the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company. She did not believe it even more, so she insisted on breaking off the engagement.
But now, she believed what the Ancestor had said.
Hence, as long as she went to look for Gu Jinyuan and restored their marriage, she could change everything.
But she did not even know where Gu Jinyuan was. How could she find him?
After Gu Jinyuan came to the Mystic Realm, he had always kept a low profile and rarely appeared outside. Furthermore, very few people in the Imperial City knew him, so basically no one knew of his existence. The Hai family naturally did not know, nor did Hai Lan.
Be it the Hai family or Hai Lan, they were no longer related to Gu Jinyuan. He was currently helping brew medicine in the courtyard of the Ninth Lord’s Estate.
Xue Fanxin did not care about the Hai family either. She was busy treating and saving people. When she heard Ye Jiushang’s voice from the space, she returned to her room in the name of resting and entered the Reverse Spirit Heaven Wheel’s space.
The moment she entered, she asked, “Ah Jiu, are the herbs ready?”
Ye Jiushang was already sitting on a soft chair. When he heard Xue Fanxin ask about herbs the moment she entered, he was a little displeased. Hence, he pulled her into his arms and complained. “In your eyes, can’t your husband compare to herbs?”
“Aiyaya, why are you still arguing about this at a time like this?”
“This is a very important matter, so I have to make it clear. Remember, you have to put your husband first in the future, okay?”
“I know, I know. My husband is the most important.” Xue Fanxin wrapped her arms around Ye Jiushang’s neck and asked with a smile, “Then, my dear husband, have you prepared the herbs?”
Ah Jiu has become more and more speechless recently.
