The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

The next morning, when Scarlet Pinnacle Manor was still shrouded in a thin layer

of mist, Vera, who was not wearing any makeup, tied her long hair into a ponytail and put on an inconspicuous summer dress as she headed to Mount Qi alone.

Both Logan and Emmett had suggested that she bring bodyguards along with her to ensure her safety, but Vera had refused.

One's environment shouldn't affect one's ability to find inner peace. For Vera, since she had decided to study in Aurous Hill, she should start living in this city with confidence and boldness from now on.

For a girl who traveled alone, even if she looked prettier than most, she would only attract attention but not suspicion.

However, once the girl was accompanied by bodyguards or secretly followed by bodyguards all the way, once it was seen by people with malicious intent, it would inevitably arouse the other party's suspicion.

When the two saw her resolute attitude, they did not insist anymore.

After Vera went down the mountain, she did not choose to take a taxi. She had checked the route on her cell phone last night. There was a direct bus to Mount Qi from the north of Scarlet Pinnacle. The journey would take about thirty minutes. When she was hiding in the east, she did not get to experience life much, so now that she had decided to settle down in Aurous Hill for a period of time, she simply wanted to be fully integrated into Aurous Hill.

Half an hour later, Vera got off the bus at Qi Station and walked to the entrance of the scenic spot of Qi Temple.

This was Vera's first visit to Mount Qi, but when she was very young, she had heard from her father that the ancestors of the Lavor family were buried in Mount Qi.

More than six hundred years ago when Aurous Hill was established as the capital, the ancestors of the Lavor family were officials in Aurous Hill.

After a battle, the new king succeeded the throne and decided to move the capital to Eastcliff, so the Lavor family was also ordered to prepare to move the family north with the court.

However, the ancestor of the Lavor family had died of illness on the eve of the morning when they were supposed to move to the capital due to his advanced age. When explaining his affairs, he specified that he should be buried with his wife, who had been buried in Mount Qi for ten years, so his descendants buried him in Mount Qi as well.

According to the genealogy records, the descendants of the Lavor family then went worth on the second day after the ancestor of the Lavor family was buried. Since then until Vera, the descendants of the Lavor family had never been able to return to Aurous Hill to settle down. There were no members of the Lavor

family buried here, and only the ancestor and his wife were left here.

Vera hiked up the mountain and searched around the mountain but did not see any graves or tombstones. Since hundreds of years had passed, there was no way for Vera to know where her ancestor's tomb was in Mount Qi. After all, it had been too long, and even exposure to sun and rain could make the tombstone disappear.

Therefore, to Vera, Mount Qi was her ancestor's grave.noveldrama

Vera had some high-quality old sandalwood incense in her canvas bag. She originally wanted to find a secluded place on the mountain to pay he respects to her ancestors, but unexpectedly, there were warning signs prohibiting fireworks everywhere on the mountain, and there were surveillance cameras everywhere. Vera knew that if she burned incense and paid her respects to her ancestors here, she would not only be at risk of causing a fire, but she would also be at risk of getting arrested.

Once she thought of this, she decided to go to Qi Temple in the middle peak of Mount Qi to burn incense and pay her respects there instead. Although it was a temple, her ancestors were buried here, so burning incense here could also be considered as paying her respects to her ancestors.

Qi Temple had been built more than a thousand and five hundred years ago, and

it was one of the four famous Buddhist temples in Oskia. It was also the most famous temple in Aurous Hill and even the entire province.
