"Elder, do you remember if, apart from Xiao Wu, there was anyone else during that fire?" Duan Yunfei asked.
Mu Jian fell into contemplation, and after a while, he said, "It seems there was a woman. That woman, it is said, was Xiao Wu's wife. According to the forensic doctor at the time, she was not burned to death but had her throat slit and was thrown into the fire afterward."
"Then, elder, do you know if they had a child with them?" Duan Yunfei asked again.
"Yes!" Mu Jian nodded. "I still remember, back then, after the manor owner of Yongning buried Xiao Wu and his wife, he sent people to look for a child. However, it seems the child was hidden by someone, and even with the help of many sects, they couldn't find the child."
"Couldn't find him?" Duan Yunfei smiled bitterly.
Father probably never expected that the child he searched for so long was actually beside him all along and even harbored the intent to kill him from time to time?
