Revelation of the Way of Heaven

Chapter 239 Reunion

Urgent! Major plot twist! Watch now!

Once the illusion around them completely dissipated, it felt as if everyone had stepped into another world.

Qin Xiaochuan had never imagined that such a large space could be hidden inside the mountain. The dome was unfathomably high, and if it weren't for the dim light, one would almost forget that they were inside a mountain. Above the dome, countless unknown light sources dotted the landscape like stars, casting a hazy light on this vast mountain world, enough to make one see their surroundings clearly.

Even more breathtaking is the sight before us: a colossal bronze tree, reaching to the heavens, stands in the center. Its trunk is immeasurably thick, and its height pierces the dark dome. No branches are visible on its trunk, only a few massive, gnarled roots at its base, winding upwards like natural steps, leading to the unreachable treetop.

However, what shocked everyone the most was the crowd sitting under the bronze tree. They had arrived earlier than Qin Xiaochuan and his group, and were now sitting with their eyes closed, their expressions solemn and serene, as if in deep meditation.

Guo Shiyi's gaze swept quickly over the group of people, and she suddenly trembled, exclaiming in shock, "Mom!" Before she finished speaking, she had already rushed towards one of the women like an arrow released from a bow.

Qin Xiaochuan looked closely and realized it was none other than Jiang Qingxue.

Guo Shiyi knelt down in front of her mother, hugged her shoulders, and cried out with joy, "Mom!"

However, Jiang Qingxue seemed completely oblivious to Guo Shiyi's cries, remaining seated with her eyes closed and showing no reaction.

Guo Shiyi sensed something was wrong and shook her shoulders hard, calling out several times. Jiang Qingxue slowly opened her eyes, but her gaze was blank, and she looked at her daughter with a confused expression, as if she were looking at a stranger.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Seeing the other person's expression, Guo Shiyi stiffened. When the other person didn't answer, she couldn't help but ask, "Mom, do you...do you still recognize me?"

Jiang Qingxue remained silent for a while before frowning and asking, "Who are you?"

"I'm Shiyi, I'm your daughter!" Guo Shiyi said anxiously, her voice already trembling with tears.

"I don't have a daughter," Jiang Qingxue said, gently brushing her hand away.

Guo Shiyi was struck dumb, frozen in place, all the words stuck in her throat. A profound sense of loss and helplessness overwhelmed her.

Qin Xiaochuan stepped forward, gently patted her shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Auntie... seems to have lost her memory."

"Mom—" Guo Shiyi could no longer hold back and hugged her mother tightly. All her grievances and sorrow turned into choked sobs, which made everyone around feel sad.

Jiang Qingxue remained unmoved and continued to sit with her eyes closed.

"Aunt Shiyi, don't be sad." Xiaoying took Guo Shiyi's hand, her voice young but firm, "Grandma will definitely get better."

Guo Shiyi glanced at the little girl and nodded with tears in her eyes, "Yes... no matter what, as long as Mom is alright, that's all that matters."

"Xiaoying is right, and I also believe your mother will get better." Han Kexin's calm voice rang out, her sharp gaze sweeping over all those meditating under the tree. "Because her amnesia is not some personal accident."

Guo Shiyi immediately seized upon a glimmer of hope, looked at Han Kexin, and hurriedly asked, "Sister Kexin, what do you mean?"

"Did you discover something?" Qin Xiaochuan asked from the side.

"Look at these people, they all seem to have amnesia. So many people losing their memory at the same time can't have been caused by an accident, it's more like..."

"It's more like it was caused by some kind of skill," Qin Xiaochuan blurted out.

Han Kexin glanced at him and then said, "That's right. If that's the case, as long as we can find the caster, we'll have a chance to help Shiyi's mother regain her memories."

"That makes sense." Qin Xiaochuan looked at Han Kexin approvingly, then said to Guo Shiyi, "Shiyi, did you hear that? Don't be too sad. We will definitely help Auntie regain her memory."

Han Kexin's analysis was like a shot in the arm, and hope rekindled in Guo Shiyi's eyes. She nodded vigorously and said, "Thank you so much."

"Don't talk nonsense. We're partners on adventures together. Your business is our business," Qin Xiaochuan said gently, patting her head.

"So, do you have any leads now?" Han Kexin looked at him coldly from the side, never giving him a kind look since morning.

"Ah, clues? Not yet. What you just said means you must have found some clues, right?" Qin Xiaochuan looked at her expectantly.

"Ha, men are all talk and no action," Han Kexin said sarcastically, her face full of contempt.

"I, I didn't." Qin Xiaochuan blushed slightly and hurriedly explained, "We... we just found a clue, we haven't had time to look for any yet." As he spoke, he stood up and looked around at his surroundings.

"These people are all sitting around this bronze tree. Their amnesia is probably related to this bronze tree. I think we can focus our breakthrough on the bronze tree," he analyzed while examining the giant bronze tree.

"What do you think?" Seeing that Han Kexin hadn't replied for a while, he turned to her for her approval.

"This should be obvious, anyone can see it," Han Kexin said coldly.

Qin Xiaochuan was speechless, only able to mutter to himself, "What did I do to offend her again?"

"Ahem." Seeing that the other party remained silent for a while, Qin Xiaochuan had no choice but to break the silence again, saying, "It seems we have to go up to this bronze tree and investigate..."

Before he could finish speaking, a sudden commotion came from behind him. Qin Xiaochuan turned around and saw that the various sects and the demon hunters he had met at the tavern had finally arrived at this core area.

After surveying the bronze tree for a while, these people stepped onto its tangled steps and began climbing toward the unknown heights.

Yin Changlin looked up at the bronze tree, then turned to Guo Shiyi and said, "It seems we also need to go up and find out what's going on. Given your mother's current condition, she definitely needs someone to take care of her. I think you and Jiang Han should stay here to take care of your mother, while Wei Feng, Luo Hao, and I will go up and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xiaochuan quickly said, "There's no need to trouble Senior Brother Jiang. Let me stay and keep Shiyi company."

Yin Changlin looked at him but before he could speak, Guo Shiyi said, "None of you need to stay. I can stay here by myself and take care of Mom and the others."

"But..." Qin Xiaochuan glanced at the other archaeological team members. Although these people had lost their memories, they still had the will to survive independently. Otherwise, they would have starved to death in this place long ago. Even so, taking care of so many people was not an easy task. "You can't take care of so many people. Besides, we won't feel at ease if you stay here alone."

"How could I be alone? My mom is here, and all these uncles and aunties are here." Guo Shiyi forced a smile. "They're not patients who can't take care of themselves. I'll just cook some good food for them. There's plenty of food left in the camp outside, so don't worry."

Before Qin Xiaochuan could speak, Guo Shiyi continued, "The most important thing right now is to help my mother regain her memory. The more people who search, the greater the hope. I just hope she can get better soon. I..." She suddenly choked up, tears streaming down her face again. Looking at Qin Xiaochuan, she could no longer suppress her emotions: "Promise me, you must help me regain my mother's memory, okay?"

Looking at her tear-streaked face, Qin Xiaochuan felt a strange emotion welling up inside him, and a strong urge to protect her arose spontaneously.

"Okay!" He nodded solemnly.

"In that case, let's keep Feifei by your side. With it there, it can protect you well, and we can rest assured," Han Kexin said from the side. Feifei was very intelligent. After hearing Han Kexin's words, it glanced at Xiaoying. Xiaoying patted its head and said, "Take good care of Aunt Shiyi." So Feifei walked to Guo Shiyi's side on its own.

This time, Guo Shiyi did not refuse. After the arrangements were made, everyone followed the people from other sects and stepped onto the steps of the bronze giant tree.
