"Um? What is the Millennium Ruins?" Ouyang Zixin was originally focused on waiting for Rong Yi's answer, but when Yun Tianmo asked this question, she suddenly felt confused.
Yun Tianmo pointed a finger at the Taiji Yin-Yang Diagram she had just drawn and said, "I have seen this shape underground in Luoping Village. Just like you said, there were two things that looked like eyes."
The sudden long statement surprised everyone present, and Ouyang Zixin directly remarked, "What? So you can speak in long sentences?"
Yun Tianmo realized she was overly excited and momentarily acted out of character, forcing herself to remain calm and said, "Speak properly."
"I have been speaking properly; it's you who hasn't been," Ouyang Zixin muttered, casting a disdainful glance at Yun Tianmo. However, she continued to explain, "This should be called the Taiji Yin-Yang Diagram. The one with eyes is the complete version. What I drew is what I vaguely sensed, right here at the dantian position..."
As Ouyang Zixin spoke, she pointed to her own body. Bai Su quickly stepped forward and grabbed her hand, scolding, "How can a girl do that..."
"Oh come on, Mom, what's the big deal? I'm not undressed." Ouyang Zixin, being a modern person reincarnated into this world, really didn't care much about gender propriety. Besides, what was there to avoid with Yun Tianmo? Didn't she say she was beaten up and her clothes were in tatters? Wasn't it Yun Tianmo who carried her back?
Why was there suddenly something to avoid now?
Ouyang Hao was also curious about the Millennium Ruins. Ignoring everything else, he asked, "Could Xin'er be related to those ruins?"
Ouyang Zixin had "accidentally" discovered the Millennium Ruins within the Exiled Nation and had already reported it to the Sovereign. If she herself had any connection to those ruins, it would surely be a big trouble.
Yun Tianmo shook her head and said, "It shouldn't be."
How could something from a thousand years ago be related to Ouyang Zixin? Not to mention her; even the people living on Yuhai Continent today and the existing Three Great Empires couldn't possibly have any concrete connection to it.
But what about the shape generated in Ouyang Zixin's dantian? What was going on there?
"What shouldn't be shouldn't matter. It definitely has nothing to do with me; it's from a thousand years ago—what a joke. If we're talking about a thousand years later..." Ouyang Zixin casually tried to distance herself from any connection to those ruins but suddenly recalled how she came to this continent.
Which era was earlier: this continent or the world she lived in? Or were they not even on parallel timelines?
"What do you call that diagram?" If it is also called the Taiji Yin-Yang Diagram, then Ouyang Zixin would really be frustrated. She didn't know whether her world had inherited from here or if this place was actually an inheritance from her world.
"What do you mean a thousand years later?" Yun Tianmo was always someone who could grasp the main point, so he naturally wouldn't miss the part of Ouyang Zixin's words that remained unspoken.
"Hey, why do you care about things a thousand years later? I'm asking you, what is that diagram called?" Ouyang Zixin silently prayed that it wouldn't be called the Taiji Yin-Yang Diagram.
The three elders had completely lost the chance to interject in the conversation between the two and could only listen quietly. At this moment, they began to sense something; no wonder Ouyang Zixin was concerned about the name of that diagram. If even the name was the same, who would believe that it had nothing to do with Ouyang Zixin?
"I don't know," Yun Tianmo replied coolly. His furrowed brow showed his frustration; he hadn't expected there were things he couldn't figure out. Ouyang Zixin's question made him feel as if he wasn't as omnipotent as he thought.
This feeling of having his confidence questioned was truly unpleasant.
"Don't know?!" Ouyang Zixin admitted she was a bit agitated; how could he not know? Such an irresponsible answer.
There were indeed some characters and patterns on the ruins, but the time gap was too vast for anyone to recognize what was written. So Yun Tianmo was really just worrying for nothing.
"Xin'er, it's already quite rare for things left over from a thousand years ago to be preserved intact; you shouldn't make it difficult for the King of Ink," Bai Su said somewhat apologetically, first blaming Ouyang Zixin.
"Well, that's true." Thinking about it, it really couldn't be blamed on Yun Tianmo. Ouyang Zixin was just a bit unwilling; perhaps those ruins held some clues that would help her understand why she ended up here.
As for whether she would go back or not, she truly had no energy to consider that anymore. She didn't even know how much time had passed there. If she returned and everything had changed, with no family or colleagues left, she would go crazy.
"This matter is serious; King of Ink, you must clarify it," Ouyang Hao chimed in. Rumors had already spread since his daughter returned to the imperial capital; they couldn't afford any more trouble. This news absolutely must not be known by others until confirmed.
"I have a plan in mind," Yun Tianmo nodded. If it weren't for Ouyang Zixin bringing it up today, he might not have known either.
"Alright, alright, Girl just woke up and is still very weak; let's end it here for today." Rong Yi, who was responsible for treating Ouyang Zixin's injuries, spoke up. His words indicated that Ouyang Zixin had reached her limit and needed to rest immediately.
Leaving Liu Ying and Liu Lu to attend to her, the others all stepped out.
In the small courtyard, Ouyang Hao had Lin Ma brought over and sent Bai Su back to the backyard. The other two accompanied him to the study.
"What do you think?"
Rong Yi had not spoken about the relics at all, so as soon as they entered the study, Ouyang Hao asked him first.
"Take a look for yourselves." Rong Yi brought over the drawing made by Ouyang Zixin and let the two examine it closely once again.
Ouyang Hao had only glanced at it before; he had not participated in this matter from the beginning, so he felt he had no right to speak. Now looking at the drawing, his first reaction was, "Haha, Xin'er is quite good at drawing."
Yun Tianmo had seen it before, but he had been standing far away at that time. Now that he was closer, he realized there was more to Ouyang Zixin's drawing than he initially thought.
"Did you figure it out?" Rong Yi completely ignored Ouyang Hao's reaction and focused on his disciple.
"It seems that her drawing expresses more than just two colors; it's a pity that her brushwork is limited." Ouyang Zixin noted that her drawing was indeed different from what he saw in the relics.
Although the patterns in the relics were not very clear, it was certain that there were only black and white colors, which were much more monotonous compared to Ouyang Zixin's drawing.
"What are you talking about?" Ouyang Hao still did not understand.
