Ono's eyes began to look sad.
"Forty years ago, changes occurred where we lived, and the fifth family was forced to move."
At that time, Ono was not yet born, so the subsequent stories were all told to her by the elders in Yunmeng Village.
After the fifth family moved out of their residence, two voices emerged in the family.
One group, headed by the patriarch, Ono's grandfather and the [King] of the fifth family, advocates continuing to find an isolated place to live in seclusion.
Another voice, headed by [Xiang], the powerful branch leader of the family, advocates joining the world and integrating into it.
The impact of two different voices is the division of the fifth family.
[Xiang] led some tribesmen to launch a rebellion and attacked Grandpa Ono.
The seriously injured Grandpa Ono escaped from [Xiang]'s pursuit with the remaining bloodline of his master's family, namely Ono's father, as well as some loyal servants and clan guards.
They fled all the way, and finally came to the Qingwu Mountain in Dongting Province thirty-five years ago.
In order to protect the master's family, those loyal servants, Chu Longfei and his fathers, set up camp at the foot of the mountain and established Yunmeng Village to block anyone who wanted to go up the mountain.
Not only that, the owner's family also spread poisonous mist on the top of the mountain to prevent outsiders from breaking in.
This is the reason why Yunmeng Village and Qingwu Mountain Society suddenly appeared thirty-five years ago.
However, due to serious injuries, Ono's grandfather passed away not long after arriving at Qingwu Mountain.
A few years ago, Ono's parents mysteriously disappeared after giving birth to Ono.
According to the clan guards, the two of them were probably out looking for their clansmen and their descendants who were wandering away when they fled.
But over the years, there has been no news from the two.
Ono was raised by clan guards since he was a child, and he heard about the family's heavy past, so he showed a more mature side than ordinary children.
After listening to Ono's explanation of his origins, thoughts flashed in Ye Hong's eyes.
Ye Hong could not imagine a reclusive family like the Fifth Family before, but as his horizons improved, he heard rumors about such families.
The Yan Kingdom has been passed down for thousands of years, and there are so many ancient clans that continue to this day.
Some ancient tribes are active in the world, while others like to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, never communicating with people outside the family.
And these ancient clans are the so-called hidden families.
They followed ancient rituals and continued the ancient way of life.
Even the ancestors of some hidden ancient clans were relatives of the ancient emperors, so they continued to regard the clan as the country and proclaimed themselves generals and ministers.
Just like this fifth family, there are ranks such as [King] and [Prime Minister].
"So, the force behind the Fifth Qinglan was established by the [Xiang] who rebelled in the first place?"
Ye Hong asked calmly.
"Yes." Xiaoye nodded and said with a wry smile: "In terms of seniority, I still have to call the fifth Qinglan clan sister."
No wonder.
If this is the case, then the strong men in black clothes brought by Fifth Qinglan are the descendants of the clan guards who rebelled in the first place.
No wonder Ono has such complicated emotions towards them.
"Then what is [that thing] that Fifth Qinglan said?"
Ye Hong asked the question he was most concerned about.
Fifth Qinglan brought so many people here this time, just for [that thing] in their mouth.
Ye Hong guessed that this thing must be crucial to the entire fifth family, and couldn't help but wonder what it was.
