The Fourth Lady

After camping for a night, Su Yun lead his Su family army and continued to advance again. But the further they advanced, the more he felt uneasy in his heart. That letter from earlier, seems to have always lingered in his mind, and even in his dreams last night, he dreamt of Qingyan being hung up and beaten.

Luo Bing also told him what she dreamt of last night. Although he knew in his heart that dreams and reality were opposites, in the end, she was still his daughter after all.

His only daughter in this life. He'd already felt he owed Qingyan too much, and now if he were to let her fall into danger, then he would regret it for life.

After a brief discussion, Su Yun and Luo Bing decided to let the Su family army avoid the Forest of Buried Souls, and the two of them would head there together. He originally wanted to go alone, but he couldn't dissuade Luo Bing, knowing her personality. So he could only go along with her desire, agreeing to let her go with him.

"Father, mother, why are you going to the Forest of Buried Souls. Not only does that forest have giant wild beasts, there's also a large piece of marshland. If one were to unintentionally fall into the marshes, it'd no doubt be a certain death." Su Qingyu looked to the two of them, asking in bewilderment.

"Yu'er, there's a reason behind this. Don't ask anymore. If your mother and I don't come back alive, then it'll be up to you to protect your little sister in the future." Su Yun said as he solemnly patted Su Qingyu's shoulder.

But Su Qingyu still didn't understand why the two of them would suddenly want to enter the Forest of Buried Souls. Before Su Qingyu could even come to his senses, the two of them had already disappeared in front of his eyes.

The more he thought, the more it didn't feel right. For Su Yun and Luo Bing to be this concerned, something must have happened to his younger sister. When he thought of this, he recalled Su Yun's words from earlier and could only continue advancing along with the Su family army around the forest.

Using her dreams of her parents as an excuse, she proposed to Su Jiashi to let her spend the next few days inside the ancestral hall*, and today was her third day inside the halls. Everyday she would kneel before buddha devoutly praying, hoping nothing will happen to Su Yun and Luo Bing.
