Seeing that Wutong had almost recovered, Xu Fu felt relieved and nodded with satisfaction. Then he stretched out a hand and waved gently...

An invisible force quickly spread out, instantly opening the barrier that imprisoned General Hua and Madam Hua.

However, he seemed to have forgotten that this mansion, which had once suffered severe damage, was still in ruins and had not yet been restored to its original appearance.

Anyone who sees such a tragic scene will be frightened and faint, because this level of destruction is simply not something that an ordinary person can cause.

Sure enough, when the first ray of sunlight of the rising winter sun shone on the ruins of Xufu, which were full of potholes and cracks, the scene was simply horrible.

Mrs. Hua looked around and saw the devastated battlefield. She widened her eyes and screamed in horror.

Then, she couldn't wait to shout, "Where's my Ye'er?"

After saying that, tears began to flow like a flood, and her face, which already had some wrinkles, was instantly wet with tears.

Her legs were weak and she stood there blankly. She wanted to lift her legs but found that she had no strength at all. She could only cling tightly to General Hua's arm, as if she would lose everything if she let go.

General Hua forced himself to remain calm, a trace of astonishment and worry showing on his weathered face. He used his strong palms to firmly press down his wife's trembling hands, trying to give her some comfort.

The scene was horrific, even more terrifying than a battlefield. The air was filled with a pungent smell of burning, making people sick.

The smell was very complex. It had the burnt smell of charcoal, the stench of burnt flesh, the smell of glue produced by burnt silk, and a strong smell of blood, which was completely different from the smell of human blood.

The stench was sticky, as if it could stick to people's bodies, making people feel extremely disgusted when they saw it.

There were also clumps of black and green liquid attached to the ground. They were constantly rolling and boiling like living things.

General Hua couldn't bear the scene in front of him. His stomach churned and he almost vomited.

He suppressed his discomfort and tried hard to control his nausea, but the veins on his forehead bulged from the excessive force.

He was worried that his wife would see this horrific scene, so he quickly reached out to cover Mrs. Hua's eyes, not wanting her to be frightened.

General Hua swallowed back his nausea. Veins popped out on his forehead, and pain throbbed in his temples. He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

He knew very well that the man in front of him was definitely not an ordinary person, and judging from his attitude towards him, he had no ill intentions towards him.

Thinking of this, General Hua's mood calmed down a little, but he still couldn't help but feel his heart pounding.

General Hua raised his trembling voice, as loud as a bell: "What on earth happened here? How is my daughter Hua Ye now?"

Hearing this, Xu Fu raised his thick but not dense eyebrows slightly, and pressed the corners of his mouth slightly downward, revealing an expression as if he had encountered some difficult problems.

"Wutong, what should I do? I completely forgot that Hua Ye's parents don't know my eldest brother's true identity. This is terrible!"

Xu Fu panicked instantly and ran to Wutong in a hurry, frowning tightly. His clear big eyes kept turning as if he was trying to think of a countermeasure.

Wutong was calm and composed. She stopped the strange gestures she was making, waved her hands lightly, and a mysterious light emerged from her fingertips.

In the blink of an eye, the dirt and blood on her body disappeared without a trace, and she became clean and refreshed.

Wutong has changed her usual cold demeanor, and her delicate and soft facial features are replaced with a warm smile, like a flower blooming in spring, delicate and gorgeous, exuding a charming scent.

She took light steps and walked towards General Hua gracefully. Every step seemed to be on the clouds, with an otherworldly temperament.

"Sister-in-law is fine, but my eldest brother was slightly injured, and she has to take care of him, so she went back to my eldest brother's palace first."

The sound of the paulownia tree is crisp and pleasant, like the sound of nature, which makes people intoxicated.

She lowered her head slightly, and her long eyelashes trembled gently, like a dancing butterfly, giving people a gentle and kind feeling.

However, although Wutong tried his best to make his voice sound steady and convincing, he couldn't help but worry about Hua Ye in his heart.

A trace of guilt flashed across her eyes, like a meteor across the night sky, disappearing in an instant, but it still could not escape General Hua's sharp eyes.

"Little girl, are you sure my daughter and son-in-law only suffered minor injuries?"

General Hua widened his eyes and stared at Wutong, with doubt and anxiety flashing in his eyes.

His voice was deep and powerful, as if it could penetrate people's souls, making people feel awe.

Seeing this, Mrs. Hua hurriedly pulled down General Hua's calloused hand, then held Wutong's arms tightly with both hands, asking anxiously.

"Is my daughter's life really not in danger?"
