The two got into the car, and the Cadillac slowly drove onto the road.

The atmosphere inside the car was very quiet.

Xu Ming kept looking out the window.

It was already late at night, and the neon lights on the street were still flashing. However, there were very few pedestrians on the road. Occasionally, when passing through a few alleys, you could see some drunk people lying on the ground.

"Mr. Xu Ming, Yukino, can you come back...?"

Suddenly, I heard Yukinoshita's voice.

She seemed to be asking Xu Ming, but also seemed to be talking to herself, her eyes filled with confusion.

"I will do my best to save her."

Xu Ming gave a serious assurance.

If she were still alive.

Xu Ming added in his mind.

To be honest, Xu Ming is still completely baffled.

His intuition told him that what he was seeing was only the tip of the iceberg of the whole affair.

The 'weird' lacks the ethics and morality of normal people, and the 'weird' transformed from the dead often harbors extreme hatred towards the living.

The fact that 'weiqi' kidnapped Yukino Yukinoshita instead of killing her on the spot must have a deeper reason, but it could never be that he invited her for tea.

What awaits Yukino Yukinoshita is likely an end even more tragic than death.

Therefore, if you want to save someone, you must do it before the 'strange' thing makes a move!

An hour later, the Cadillac slowly drove into a huge Japanese garden.

Xu Ming also met Yukino's mother through Yukino's introduction.

A beautiful woman in a kimono who resembles the Yukino and Haruno sisters but has a more mature and assertive demeanor.

Beside her was a handsome middle-aged man who seemed somewhat weak-willed; he was presumably the two sisters' father.

Chapter 371 The Origin of the Yukinoshita Clan

Xu Ming had actually learned about this as well.

Compared to bloodline, Japan places greater emphasis on the inheritance of family names.

Therefore, some large families tend to prefer having more daughters than sons.

A daughter can choose an excellent son-in-law.

The son, however, has no choice.

The same applies to the Yukinoshita family. The two sisters' father married into the family, and coupled with Yukinoshita's mother's strong abilities, the aura naturally reversed.

Xu Ming's mind was wandering over some trivial matters.

Suddenly, Xue Mu let out a long sigh and said something completely out of the blue.

"So it's finally come to this... sigh..."

Yukinoshita, who was kneeling in front of the coffee table, immediately leaned forward, placed her hands on the coffee table, and looked at her mother with an anxious expression.

"Mom...Mother, do you know something?!"

Xue's mother raised her eyebrows and immediately put on a stern face, glaring fiercely at her daughter.

"Yang Nai, how many times have I told you to stay calm at all times? Besides, there are guests here. What kind of behavior is this?"

Yukinoshita let out a breath and quickly sat up straight.

"I'm so sorry, I lost my composure."

Xue Mu nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Xu Ming on the other side.

"I'm sorry you had to see this."

"Do not."

Xu Ming quickly waved his hand.

But I was internally complaining.

These large families have so many broken rules.

Yukimura paused for a moment, then looked at Yukinoshita.

"Yang Nai, unbutton your collar."

"Huh!? This..."

Yukino's fair face flushed red instantly.

She glanced at Xu Ming beside her hesitantly.

"Mother, isn't this inappropriate?"

Snow Mother glared at her.

"Just unbutton one button, what are you thinking, child?"

"Oh……"

Yukinoshita nodded meekly.

Although she presents herself as a strong woman in public, Yukinoshita Haruno acts like a younger sister in front of her even more assertive mother.

At this moment, Yukinoshita Haruno had already unbuttoned her collar, revealing a section of her snow-white neck.

Xu Ming glanced at it briefly, but his casual gaze suddenly turned serious, his slightly upturned lips fell silent, and his expression became extremely solemn.

Yukino noticed Xu Ming staring at her, and a hint of embarrassment and annoyance immediately appeared on her face.

However, Xu Ming was completely captivated by the red mark on her neck.

The mark was pink, like a stitch left after surgery, except that it was a full circle, encircling Yukinoshita's neck.

Yuki's mother also saw the mark on Yukino's neck, and her face immediately darkened.

"So it really happened after all..."

Yukinoshita Haruno sensed something was off and subconsciously touched her neck.

Is there something dirty here?

Xu Ming glanced at her with some surprise.

"You have a birthmark on your neck, didn't you know?"

Yukinoshita was taken aback.

"Birthmark? What birthmark? I don't have any birthmarks."

Noticing the strange looks from everyone, Yukinoshita Haruno quickly took out a makeup mirror from her bag and opened it to carefully examine her neck.

Then she was surprised to find a red mark, like a birthmark, on her neck.

"What the hell is this thing?!"

Yukinoshita Haruno frantically touched her neck in a look of terror.

If you find yourself with something strange and unexpected on your body, any normal person would feel panicked.

Snow Mother sighed.

"That's a blood curse passed down through generations of our Yukinoshita family..."

Yukinoshita paused, staring at her in astonishment.

Snow Mother sighed and turned to look at her husband beside her.

"Yue Fu, go and bring that over."

Yukinoshita Yuefu nodded and turned to leave.

The atmosphere in the living room suddenly fell silent.

Yukino looked worried and restless, and would unconsciously raise her hand to touch her neck from time to time.

Snow Mother was silent for a moment, then spoke again.

"The story of this curse begins with the origins of our Yukinoshita family."

As Xue Mu spoke, she looked at Xu Ming.

"Please be careful, sir. What I am about to say concerns a secret of the Yukinoshita family. I hope you will not divulge it."

Xu Ming nodded.

"Please rest assured, Madam, I am not a big mouth."

Xue's mother seemed to have already inquired about Xu Ming and had some understanding of him, so she didn't hesitate and started telling the story directly.

“Our Yukinoshita family is not native to Honshu.”

Several hundred years ago, the Yukinoshita family, well... back then they should have been called the Yukinoshita clan.

The Yukinoshita clan lives on a remote island far from the mainland.

The island is named 'Starfall', meaning the place where stars fall.

There is a volcano on the island called 'Flamefall,' which, according to legend, was formed by a falling star..."

As Xu Ming listened to Xue's mother's story, his mind raced.

This involves both meteor showers and fiery falls, especially fiery falls, which is a homophone for "Yama" (the King of Hell).

If Xu Ming remembered correctly, the pronunciation of 'Yama' in Japanese is similar to that in Chinese, and the meaning is also similar.

I don't know who came up with this name, it's just so unlucky.

Xu Ming's mind raced with thoughts, while Xue's mother slowly recounted that unknown past.

"Under normal circumstances, Yanluo Mountain will remain tranquil."

However, every twenty years on the "Starless Night," Yanluo Mountain awakens from its slumber and spews out a black flame called "Abyss Flame" from a cave called "Yuan."

The flames of the abyss are completely different from ordinary flames.
