Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 3059 (Three Thousand and Fifty-Nine)
"It's okay to tell Elder Tie. I already knew that she is no longer alive. She is my sister, Li Gengmi." Li Pingrun said.

After saying this, Li Pingrun suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness. For a moment, he felt that his life might not last long. The feeling of worry and fear he had before suddenly disappeared.

"How did you let her down?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"I..." Li Pingrun said, "My master told me a long time ago that I was not suitable for doing certain things, otherwise my future destiny would be greatly affected. I asked my master how he knew, and he said that as a person who knows magic, he can't just say it casually. I thought my master didn't like it, so he didn't let me do it. I just wanted to do it, and I didn't think there would be any problem. Later, I couldn't find my sister anymore, and my master told me again that I was not suitable for doing that kind of thing. If I really did it, I would never see my sister again. I asked why, and the master still said that as a person who knows magic, he can't just say it casually. During that time, there were some conflicts between my master and me, and I knew that my master didn't like certain things, so I thought my master said that to me deliberately because he didn't like it. Later, who knows..."

"Your sister is missing. How do you know it has something to do with you taking the wrong road?" Tie Jinjue asked again.

Li Pingrun said: "A long time later, my master once told me a test spell. That spell can only be used once. I haven't used it for a long time. Recently, I used it and found that my sister's matter was related to me."

"How did you find out?" Tie Jinjue asked, "Can you tell me in detail?"

"Yes." Li Pingrun said, "That night, before I went to bed and extinguished the candle, I thought about the situation related to the 'land subsidence' that year, and what my master had said to me. My master said to me that time: "I have told you everything I should tell you. If you insist on not believing it, I have no way to help you. I will tell you again, if you see a land subsidence somewhere at 11:00 tonight, and if you still want to take that road that is not suitable for me, your sister will pass away in the future when a land subsidence occurs... I will not go into details, you think about it yourself. The master had taught me a lesson that day, and I felt that he was taking his anger out on me and even used my sister's life to make a fuss, so I didn't believe what he said at all."

"Did you see the ground sink that night?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"I saw it." Li Pingrun said, "But I heard from local people that the sinkhole there was caused by humans. I thought it was nothing because it was caused by humans, and even suspected that the sinkhole there was related to my master. I even thought that my master might have someone create the sinkhole to change my mind, but I didn't think my master would definitely do that. Now looking back, I think I shouldn't have even thought that way back then."

"When you hear 'ground collapse', do you have any special feeling in your heart?" Tie Jinjue asked.

"In fact, for a long time, I didn't really believe in those things. So even when I heard about 'ground subsidence', I would remember what my master told me, but I didn't think it would have any impact on my sister. But I saw some situations before..." Li Pingrun said.

He originally wanted to say that he saw her sister's dead face in the underground space, but he said "some situations" instead.
