Confiscated my property and exiled me, I emptied the emperor's old nest to escape famine

“It’s not all their fault.”

"They are crazy and scared out of their wits."

"Unknown phenomena keep appearing one after another. How many people can bear such shock?"

Ye Qingyun sighed after hearing Ye Fei's murmurs.

There was something Ye Qingyun didn't say.

If it weren't for Ye Fei, he might have been driven crazy by these strange visions like the people in Yuecheng.

The originally quiet Yuecheng was soon filled with the sounds of children crying and even screaming.

What follows is the voice of adults comforting and persuading or the voice of crying and helplessness.

Human emotions are universal, and these sounds are very infectious and contagious.

One, two, three, four...

Soon, Ye Fei felt that the entire Yuecheng was surrounded by such sounds.

These sounds made Ye Fei feel that Yuecheng was not a vibrant city at all but a purgatory on earth.

"A sin..."

Lin Xue'e sighed with a sad tone.

Ye Ling was not being naughty, so the noises from Yuecheng naturally affected him.

He snuggled up to Lin Xue'e nervously but obediently.

Ye Fei looked through the window of the inn and saw that many people appeared on the streets of Yuecheng one after another.

They were all children who were to be sent for sacrifice and some adults who were reluctant to leave.

"Father, mother..."

"I don't want to go, I want to stay home."

"I want to be with my parents and my brothers and sisters."

"Why should we go?"

"What did we do wrong?"

"Are we going to die?"

"Stop crying and go."

"Dad and Mom can't bear to leave you either."

"But you have to go for everyone's sake."

"Look, it's not just you."

"There are others. You won't be alone."

Those crying, helpless and confused children, either fearfully or naively, had their final conversation with their families.

This scene is quite tragic indeed.

Ye Fei believed that the parents of these children must also love them.

But for the survival of himself and other family members, he finally chose to abandon them.

The guards sent by the City Lord's Mansion quickly took all the children away.

Ye Fei didn't continue reading.

Because with the departure of these children, the entire Yuecheng Street returned to peace.

The sky finally darkened.

The people of Yuecheng began to move towards the former city lord's mansion.

Perhaps because so many people placed their hopes on the sacrificial ceremony, the people of Yuecheng did not seem as fearful as before.

"Fei'er, what should we do now?"

"Are we going to the sacrificial ceremony as well?"

Lin Xue'e spoke in confusion.

Although Ye Fei said before that he had his own plans, he didn’t say much.

Ye Qingyun and Lin Xue'e trusted Ye Fei, so they didn't ask any more questions.

At this moment, they had to ask.

Ye Fei smiled strangely: "Go, of course I will go."

"But I'm going alone, so you guys should just get some good sleep."

When Ye Qingyun and Lin Xue'e heard this, they suddenly had a familiar ominous premonition in their hearts.

The next moment, Ye Fei quickly pressed their sleeping points before they could react.

Then he expertly placed them into the space.

So many children from Yuecheng were captured in tonight’s sacrificial ceremony that Ye Fei had no choice but to take care of things for once.

However, it was inconvenient for Ye Fei to act with Ye Qingyun and the others.

Ye Fei was worried about letting them stay in the inn.

So it is safest to put them in the space.

Fortunately, the owner of the inn was too busy with the Bloody Sky incident to care about Ye Fei's family.

Therefore, when Ye Fei left the inn alone, he did not arouse any suspicion from others.

The former city lord’s mansion.

The prelude to the sacrificial ceremony has been prepared.

There were crowds of people in three circles inside and three circles outside.

At the innermost are the priests who preside over the sacrifice and the children who are being sacrificed.

Of course, Wang Zhi and others were also in it.

The guards of the City Lord's Mansion silently maintained order at the sacrificial ceremony.

There were many people in Yuecheng, but there was no friction or conflict at this time.

Everyone cooperated well.

Ye Fei was in a hidden high place, and this was the situation he saw at first sight.

"God bless, God bless..."

"After the sacrificial ceremony, everything will be over."

"Everything will be fine..."

After arriving at the sacrificial site, Ye Fei heard many people from Yuecheng still muttering and praying for God's blessing.

And judging from the voices, these people are very pious.

In addition to these prayer sounds, Ye Fei also heard some other sounds.

But no matter what voices there were, Ye Fei did not hear the people of Yuecheng protesting for their children who were about to be sacrificed.

It was as if everyone voluntarily accepted the arrangement made by the City Lord's Mansion.

Ye Fei felt that they were pathetic.

But she felt that those innocent children were more pitiful.

On the altar, the sound of "Uriwala" continued.

Boys and girls began to be brought to the altar.

But in Yangyangyue City, Ye Fei still did not see anyone coming out to stop such sacrifices.

Even if it's just one person.

Ye Fei no longer had any expectations for the people of Yuecheng.

She rushed to the altar fully armed and kicked the wizard who was pretending to be a ghost to the ground.

"Who are you and what do you want to do?"

"Why did you suddenly break into the sacrificial ceremony?"

"If you destroy the sacrificial ceremony, you will be the sinner of Moon City."

"Come here, take down this man with ulterior motives."

Wang Zhi shouted when he saw Ye Fei suddenly appear.

People who don’t know this would think that Ye Fei is such a cruel and cruel person.

Ye Fei knocked the guard who rushed over away with one hand.

Her behavior made Wang Zhi feel threatened and uncertain.

So does everyone else.

They watched Ye Fei's every move nervously.

However, Wang Zhi did not say anything, and the guards of the City Lord's Mansion did not act rashly against Ye Fei again.

Ye Fei then looked at Wang Zhi and said coldly: "The bloody sky is just a celestial phenomenon."

"But out of fear and stupidity, you allowed so many innocent children from Yuecheng to be sacrificed."

"As a local official, are you willing to waste the lives of innocent people like this?"

“It’s understandable that ordinary people don’t understand this.”

"But as an official appointed by the imperial court, you actually did something so ignorant and ridiculous."

"It's just a disgrace."

"You...you you you..." Wang Zhi covered his chest and was about to collapse.

He was almost killed by Ye Fei's scolding.

As an official for so many years, he has seen many people and things.

But he had never seen anyone as arrogant as Ye Fei.

Ye Fei didn't even look at him.

After scolding Wang Zhi, she turned to the dark crowd and shouted, "What about you?"

"Are you guys heartless too?"

"These children are your flesh and blood, born after ten months of hard work. They are your blood relatives."

"Are you going to sacrifice the lives of two innocent children at once just because of a word from the City Lord's Mansion?"

"I can tell you clearly that sacrifice is useless."

"No matter how many boys and girls you sacrifice, even if everyone in Moon City is sacrificed, it will not affect the bloody sky."

"What you need to do is to bring your children home for a reunion."
