There are too many female protagonists with deceased husbands in the Qin Dynasty's Past Books.

Amidst the earth-shattering tremors, the deafening crash of collapsing rock strata kicked up a cloud of choking dust. In an instant, the cave behind Jiang Mo was completely buried.

Carrying memories and the past together.

The hand raised above his head, which he had been holding with his back turned as if to snap his fingers, froze. Jiang Mo turned around in astonishment, a huge question mark appearing on his forehead:

When did I become so amazing?

I hadn't even activated my innate true energy yet, and this cave collapsed on its own? What's this? Is it to make me seem powerful and invincible?

A fleeting thought of venting crossed my mind.

Jiang Mo immediately realized something was wrong. The shaking of the ground beneath his feet did not stop after the cave collapse ended; on the contrary, it seemed to be getting worse.

What the hell?

Will the earth dragon turn over?

A subconscious guess flashed through Jiang Mo's mind, and without hesitation, he leaped up and, with two light leaps, flashed to the most open and high point.

A glance swept across, revealing everything.

Although he did see animals running and scattering in panic, Jiang Mo became increasingly certain that what was about to happen was not an earthquake, but some other major disturbance.

It was so powerful that even he, a cultivator at the Innate Realm, couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart.

Slightly narrowing his eyes, Jiang Mo no longer limited himself to seeing with his eyes, but instead fully utilized the keen perception of a master to capture the fluctuations of energy that ordinary people could not detect, and to feel the changing winds and clouds of the entire universe.

A restless, scorching heat seemed to emanate from the air.

A faint, familiar smell of sulfur wafted to Jiang Mo's nose, making him think of the hot springs at Fire Rain Manor...

No, this aura should be even hotter.

It is even more destructive.

The slightly familiar atmosphere made Jiang Mo frown and ponder. As he carefully searched through the memories, a carefully stored scene quickly magnified in his mind.

Above the churning lava, a broken sword blade stood silently suspended.

The Reverse Scale Sword, the Earth Fire Pool...

not good!

His eyes widened suddenly, and an extremely ominous guess swelled in Jiang Mo's heart, making him feel like he couldn't breathe.

There wasn't enough time to think it through carefully and verify it.

We dared not delay for even a moment.

With his divine power unleashed once more, Jiang Mo poured out his innate true energy without reservation. He could be seen rushing out with a gust of wind as soon as he touched the ground, quickly surpassing countless clouds and birds, startling even the eagles that were soaring in the sky, which almost fell to the ground.

It might be even less impressive than the Azure Phoenix of that day.

However, if he were to face the Black Feathered Phoenix again, with the speed Jiang Mo had unleashed at this moment, he would not be caught off guard by the opponent's sudden attack so easily.

Even so, Jiang Mo still felt it wasn't enough.

Hurry up.

Faster!

Anxious thoughts churned within him, and an ominous premonition grew stronger. Ignoring the depletion of his inner energy, Jiang Mo seemed to be racing against death.

Chasing the fleeting light of fate.

No matter how hard Jiang Mo tried, he could not outrun time, and what had already happened could not be stopped in time.

When the billowing black smoke appeared in his field of vision, Jiang Mo's heart sank.

No, there's still a chance to salvage the situation. I trained as a guard for so long; it's impossible that I had no strength left to resist.

Moreover, Mei'er and her companions were protected by skilled guards.

Even if the villa were to fall completely, they would not be in any immediate danger and would still have time to come to their rescue.

Jiang Mo bit his tongue hard, forcing himself to calm down.

A sweet and pungent taste lingered on his tongue, moistening his slightly dry lips. Jiang Mo secretly used witchcraft, sacrificing his life essence to overdraw his power.

As a result, his already impressive figure became even faster, by another third.

The closer Jiang Mo got to Huoyu Manor, the more he couldn't help but furrow his brows, his anxiety becoming increasingly difficult to suppress.

How would you describe the situation at this moment?

If I had to put it into words, then Fire Rain Manor is now truly living up to its name, as if it has been thoroughly baptized by a rain of fire from the sky.

As far as the eye could see, there was no place that was not ablaze.

The guards, whose spirits had been exceptionally high under Jiang Mo's training, wanted to do something, but even as buckets of water were poured down, the spread of the fire was not alleviated in the slightest.

Jiang Mo, viewed from above, has the clearest view.

From the cracks in the ground that had appeared out of nowhere, scorching flames kept emerging, as if some terrifying force could no longer be suppressed and was about to fully awaken.

Fire Rain Manor is beyond saving.

Perhaps it was somewhat cold-blooded, but Jiang Mo clearly realized that this land, where he had left many memories, would probably be completely reduced to ashes today.

However, the villa is beyond saving, but the people there may be a way.

Jiang Mo's gaze swept around, trying to find the familiar figure that haunted his dreams among the crowds fleeing outwards.

Unfortunately, he failed.

Without hesitation, Jiang Mo swooped down, falling from the sky like a missile locked on its target, fearlessly rushing into the sea of ​​fire.

where is it?

Where could Mei'er be right now?

Looking around, flames were everywhere. Jiang Mo plunged into the backyard, trying to use his senses to capture the unique aura of Hu Meier and Xiao Bai, but the energy of the surrounding world had fallen into complete chaos.

Only a destructive aura accompanied the raging flames.

Suddenly, a unique warmth came from his arms. Jiang Mo was slightly taken aback, and then immediately took out the perfectly round and flawless Fire Rain Agate.

This is what he took from Li Kai.

Firstly, she intended to entrust the matter to Hu Yuer to put her mind at ease; secondly, she was worried that someone might try to murder Bai Niao for her money.

Speaking of birds, Jiang Mo thought of that little swallow again.

He did have a backup plan; he originally intended to deal with the traitor before picking up the kid, but now it seems he won't have time to attend to the situation there at all.

Without time to think, Jiang Mo sped past, following the direction indicated by the Fire Rain Agate.

Even though the sea of ​​fire was raging in front of him, a fierce wind still howled and carved a path through him. Even though houses turned to charcoal kept falling and collapsing, it could not hinder Jiang Mo's steps in the slightest.

"Cough cough cough..."

A painful cough came from not far away. The voice sounded quite familiar. Jiang Mo's gaze sharpened, and through the blinding flames, he could vaguely see the woman lying on the ground.

In the end, I still didn't get to see him one more time...

Feeling the scorching flames licking the hem of her skirt, Hu Yu'er, too weak to move, felt little fear, only reluctance and regret.

Is this the end of my life?

We haven't seen Mei'er find her Mr. Right yet.

We haven't named the child yet.

There were too many regrets that Mrs. Hu couldn't bear to let go of, but she knew even more clearly that with her weak body from giving birth not long ago, there was no way she could survive this disaster.

Therefore, she reserved all her hope for life for her newborn child.

Now, seeing the roof beams, finally unable to hold on any longer, crash down with flames, all Hu Yu'er could do was close her eyes.

They didn't go to see the Fire Rain Manor, which had already been destroyed.

But a gentle breeze, seemingly out of nowhere, brought a rare coolness to the sea of ​​fire, making Hu Yuer, who was struggling to breathe, feel much easier to breathe.

She opened her eyes and was surprised to see someone who looked somewhat familiar.

"Jiang Mo? Didn't you go to find Brother Li? Why are you back so soon? No, that's not important. You need to go find Mei'er quickly, she..."

After a slight daze, Hu Yu'er subconsciously tried to struggle to get up.

"I'll be going to find Mei'er and the others soon, so please take good care of yourself, Miss. As for Brother Li, you will meet again someday."

Without bothering to explain further, Jiang Mo directly shoved the Fire Rain Agate into the other person's hand.

He relied on his innate true energy to protect his body and dared to move freely in the sea of ​​fire. However, if Hu Yu'er's body remained weak for even a little longer, she might suffer from long-term sequelae that would be difficult to heal.

Therefore, Jiang Mo dared not delay any longer and rushed out as quickly as possible.

His gaze swept over the fleeing crowd, and he grabbed a familiar old woman, handing Hu Yu'er over to her. Without hesitation, Jiang Mo turned and rushed back into the sea of ​​fire.

Only one sentence remained, echoing in Hu Yuer's ears:

"Until then, please do your best to live on. Only by living can there be hope."

Clutching the blood-stained Fire Rain Agate tightly in her palm, Hu Yu'er was momentarily speechless.

The raging inferno had completely turned the manor into a wasteland, but apart from Jiang Mo, there were still people moving about inside.

"Hmph, you little brat, you gave me quite a hard time just now~"

The man, draped in a fire rat fur coat, grinned lewdly as he approached the girl in the corner. The raging flames stopped a few feet away from her, having no effect on her movements.

However, those he blocked were not so lucky.

The ever-increasing temperature inside the fire soaked Hu Meier's clothes with sweat, leaving them wet and sticky against her body. But she couldn't care less about this discomfort; her brain, severely deprived of oxygen, was gradually losing consciousness.

We must escape.

I can't fall here.

Such thoughts kept popping into her muddled mind, but Hu Meier was unable to stand up because of her limp body. Even the sounds around her seemed to come from different distances.

"A dead fox,"

"Without illusion magic, let's see what skills you can still have! I'll skin you and make you into a fox fur coat to make up for the suffering you caused me before."

The malicious voice grew closer and closer. Hu Meier endured the burning pain from the firelight, trying to open her eyes wide to see Xiaobai standing in front of her and to ascertain its current condition.

But all that could be seen was flames filling the sky.
