The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 879: Chapter 879: A Millennium of Solitude

So much time has passed, he really doesn’t quite remember anymore.

Han Jing looked at him incredulously, ”Are you saying you’ve been alone, in the depths of Fengling Snow Mountain, for over two thousand years? My God, how did you... survive it?”

Han Jing could hardly imagine how a living person could endure such a long passage of time. It was truly terrifying.

”Since no one remembers the Ning Clan anymore, why don’t you go out and live, instead of staying here?” Han Jing really couldn’t understand. If the Ning Clan had disappeared, and for so long, then if Ning Shiqi went out to live, after such a long time, he could create a new family.

Why stay in this ghostly place, living a life neither human nor ghost? Well, although it wasn’t that serious, from Han Jing’s perspective, living in seclusion for a thousand years really was like a ghost.

Even that ghost Lianwu only secluded himself in Hanwu Forest for a thousand years, and that wasn’t really seclusion; it was out of necessity to mend his soul. Besides, he was accompanied by so many ghost spirits!

However, Ning Shiqi shook his head, ”It’s not just me, there’s another person who occasionally comes back.”

Han Jing was about to ask who that person was, but Su Yu asked an overlooked and crucial question: ”What is meant by divine punishment? In this world, are there forces stronger than the three Divine Clans?”

It is very clear that the erasure of the Ning Clan from the Spirit Flame Continent had nothing to do with the Xia Clan and the Feng Clan. As these were the strongest three Divine Clans at the time, unless there was a force stronger than these three, how could such a powerful Ning Clan be completely wiped from the Spirit Flame Continent without leaving a trace?

The history of the Spirit Flame Sect mentions the ancient four Divine Clans: Xia Clan, Long Clan, Feng Clan, and Ming Clan, each representing different races. If it is said that after the catastrophe ten thousand years ago, only three Divine Clans remained, then, did Long Clan and Ming Clan perish ten thousand years ago?

These questions are full of mysteries that Su Yu could not understand.

But Su Yu’s question made Ning Shiqi hesitate. He glanced at Han Jing and them but did not rush to speak as if contemplating whether to tell them.

However, since Su Yu already knew these secrets today, and was aware of the issues within them, how could he possibly give up halfway?

”Since we’ve already come this far, and our friend wasn’t harmed by you, there must be other issues involved. Since we’re already entangled, trying to retreat might already be impossible!” Su Yu looked at Ning Shiqi, ”So you need not worry, just speak freely.”

Even though they didn’t know what Xia Ji knew to have lured Yun Qingyao to such a place, they had now inadvertently arrived here. To rescue Youyou and them and pretend they had never been here seemed impossible.

”Sorry, I originally thought the external array was enough to keep everyone out. Unexpectedly, you still found your way here.” Ning Shiqi sighed.
