1239 Returning to the Nameless Emperor's Tomb

"Where do you think you are going, Yanyu?!" A cold voice resounded as Tian Yanyu tried to sneak outside her home.

When she realized that she had been spotted, Tian Yanyu turned around to face Tian Suyin, her mother.

"I have waited long enough! I am going back to the Nameless Emperor's Tomb to look for Xiao Yang!" Tian Yanyu declared in a stern voice.

It has been several days since the Nameless Emperor's Tomb sealed itself shut. After departing from the tomb, Tian Yanyu and Tian Suyin immediately returned home, just as they planned with Yuan before they went their separate ways.

Tian Yanyu had hoped Yuan would return swiftly, but as days went by without a sign of him, worry began to gnaw at her, so much so that she hadn't been able to sleep or eat since her own return, consumed by anxiety over his whereabouts and wellbeing.

"What do you hope to accomplish by returning to that place? When the Nameless Emperor's Tomb closed, everyone inside was forced to leave. If he hasn't returned by now, there could only be two possibilities. He's either dead, or he's alive and decided to leave without saying a word." Tian Suyin shook her head.

"He's not dead! He cannot be dead!" Tian Yanyu refused to believe such a thing.

"If he's not dead, then he's purposefully avoiding us. In the first place, we don't know his true intentions— why he approached us. I wouldn't be surprised if he used us."

"And why would he do something like that?! It doesn't make any sense!" Tian Yanyu exclaimed.

"How would I know? Just forget about him, Yanyu. You cannot wait for him forever."

"You're wrong! Xiao Yang wouldn't just abandon us like that! There must be a valid reason for his absence, maybe even something keeping him trapped inside the Nameless Emperor's Tomb!" Tian Yanyu vehemently argued, clinging to her refusal to accept that Yuan had simply deserted them.
