It was indeed people from other organizations who killed Si Yelin's parents.

The reason why it hadn't been discovered all these years was simply because Si Yelin had always believed that it was the group of people on the ancient mountain who did it. He never suspected anyone else. Now that he was determined to investigate, he quickly found out the real culprit.

They were a group of people who coveted the time machine. They must have been eyeing them since the time machine was created by Si's parents. Gu Yue protected them very well until Si's parents escaped from Gu Mountain with the key. They finally caught them and asked them for the key. When Si's parents refused, they killed them out of spite.

"Damn, it was him."

Xiao Lang himself found it absurd.

They searched so hard for so long for the murderer, only to find out they had the wrong one. The person who actually killed Si Yelin's parents lived a perfectly good life for more than ten years, with a large family and a rising reputation; he had become an extremely accomplished scientist!

Si Yelin and Xiao Lang had even met him several times.

A renowned scientist who made immense contributions to the country—who would have thought that such a person was actually the true culprit who wiped out Si Yelin's parents and their entire family?

“I’ll go with you to find him,” Chu Miao said immediately.

Si Yelin stroked her hair and said, "No, Miaomiao, I can go by myself. You don't need to come with me. You have more important things to do."

"You should go back to the capital and say goodbye to Uncle Chu and the others properly."

"I promised you I would take revenge with you," Chu Miao frowned.

“I can handle it myself. The Grand Preceptor is still suffering in Great Chu. You should go back to the capital first, say goodbye to them, and we'll meet in the capital.”

"Hey, can you guys stop with this dramatic farewell? We have a time machine now, so if Master goes back, she can just go back too!"

Xiao Lang was not unhappy at all. Before, it was because Chu Miao couldn't come back after using the talisman to return to the Great Chu, but now that there was a time-space shuttle, Chu Miao could come back at any time.

She can stay in the Great Chu Kingdom until she gets tired of it, then return to the capital, traveling back and forth! Even Xiao Lang can travel to the Great Chu Kingdom with her to see what people in ancient times are like.

“The time machine wasn’t fully developed before Mr. Si and the others took the key away,” Gu Yue said hesitantly. “So, the time machine is still in a semi-finished state.”

"No, what do you mean? Are you saying there's something wrong with the time machine?" Xiao Lang's eyes widened.

"Since its successful research, the time machine has never been actually used. Whether it can truly send people to the dynasty they want to go to, and whether they can come and go freely, are still uncertain."

Back then, the time machine had just been developed and hadn't been put into use when Si's parents ran away with the key. So, no one could say for sure how effective the time machine would be.

Gu Yue's words silenced everyone, and even Xiao Lang couldn't help but burst into a tirade!

They thought they had found a magic weapon, but it turned out to be so useless?

"So you mean, it's very possible that my master is going to the Great Chu Kingdom, but the time-travel machine has teleported her to another place, and she might not be able to come back???"

"It is possible."

Xiao Lang's mentality collapsed!

"That's too dangerous! What if my master didn't return to the Great Chu Kingdom, but went to some godforsaken place instead? No, no, Master, this time machine still can't be used, it's too risky!"

Chu Miao's expression remained unchanged; no matter the risks, she had to try.

The Grand Preceptor is still suffering in the Great Chu Kingdom; she must return.

Si Yelin knew that Chu Miao was determined to go back no matter what, so he didn't try to persuade her. However, the risks of this time machine were indeed too great, and they needed to find a way to reduce them.

In the end, Chu Miao listened to Si Yelin and returned to the capital first. She still hadn't figured out how to tell Chu Tian and Wen Li about her identity—that she was actually a soul from another world who had transmigrated, and that their biological daughter had actually died long ago…

She couldn't say it.
