Upon hearing the explosion, Yue Siqing's face turned extremely grim.
She was almost certain that the epicenter of the explosion was her own house.
At that moment, she finally understood why she had been feeling uneasy all along. The problem was right here.
Initially, when she saw explosions happening elsewhere, she thought someone was trying to cause trouble for the Yue family.
Now it seemed apparent that she was also one of the targets.
Apart from a limited few, no one else knew about the underground passage in her house.
With such a massive explosion, it was likely that the entire house, including the underground passage, had been leveled.
That was where she kept her bargaining chips, and she wouldn't be pleased if Lan Yunxiao and Mu Lingbing ended up dead.
In the next moment, Yue Siqing swiftly rushed towards her house. She just wanted to know which damn person had dared to do such a thing.
Once she found out, she would make them regret being born in this world!
At the same time, the cultivators of the Yue family also hurriedly headed towards Yue Siqing's house. With such a huge commotion, they also wanted to see the extent of the aftermath.
When everyone arrived at Yue Siqing's house, almost everyone involuntarily gasped in shock.
Yue Siqing's house had completely disappeared, turning into a sky full of ruins, and a large crater silently emerged, leaving everyone stunned.
Not only Yue Siqing's house, but many surrounding buildings were also affected and reduced to rubble.
On the ground, spiderweb-like cracks spread, a chilling sight to behold.
"Oh my, this destructive power is too formidable! All the houses in this area have been obliterated!"
"How much does this person hate Yue Siqing to do such a thing?"
"Yue Siqing has always had a strange temperament, and she has made enemies over the years. It's not surprising that someone would seek revenge."
Even within the Yue family, Yue Siqing's reputation hadn't improved much.
Because Yue Siqing's temper was notoriously odd, anyone who displeased her could be subjected to severe reprimands.
As a result, even the younger generation of the Yue family hesitated to ask Yue Siqing for medical advice, even if they had questions.
However, Yue Siqing was still a prominent figure in the Yue family.
At this moment, a young member of the family noticed the existence of a passage beneath the deep crater, and a look of astonishment appeared in their eyes.
"Look, there's actually a passage down there!"
With those words, the gaze of other family members also fell upon the passage.
"Yes, there really is a passage. It's truly surprising."
"No wonder the crater here is so big. It turns out there was a secret room underneath, although it's now destroyed."
For a while, the young members of the family exchanged puzzled looks, their minds pondering why there would be a secret room in this location.
For so many years, no one had known about the existence of a secret room beneath Yue Siqing's residence.
No wonder Yue Siqing had always preferred to stay in her house, perhaps her time was spent inside the secret room.
Moreover, Yue Siqing had remained unmarried until now.
With such thoughts swirling in their minds, many young members couldn't help but entertain strange ideas.
Perhaps Yue Siqing's old lover resided in that secret room.
When Yue Siqing arrived and witnessed this scene, her expression turned ugly.

Numerous young members of prominent families had already gathered at the scene, engaged in discussions mixed with unfavorable remarks.
Yue Siqing's expression was incredibly complex as she looked at the leveled house. With so many people present, she couldn't easily check on the situation of Lan Yunxiao and Mu Lingbing.
However, judging from the state of the ruins, if Lan Yunxiao and Mu Lingbing were still in the dungeon, the outcome would likely be dire.
The patriarch of the Yue family and the elders also arrived at Yue Siqing's house. While explosions had occurred in other areas as well, it was evident that the explosion at Yue Siqing's place was the most severe.
However, upon witnessing the scene, the expressions of the patriarch and the elders turned grim.
Not all members of the Yue family were unaware of Yue Siqing's actions, at least the patriarch was aware. However, Yue Siqing had successfully concealed her actions over the years, so they hadn't paid much attention to it.
They hadn't expected everything to suddenly come to light today, surpassing their expectations.
After meeting the patriarch's gaze, Yue Siqing's face also turned gloomy. At this moment, she could only hope that Lan Yunxiao and Mu Lingbing were already dead. Otherwise, if this news got out, the Lan family would not easily let the matter slide.
Having maintained a close relationship as in-laws with the Lan family for so many years, they had a certain understanding of the Lan family's attitude.
Although Yue Manlan and Lan Qingyan forcefully took the Seven-Colored Divine Pearl from Lan Yixuan's body and transferred it to Lan Qingyan, it didn't mean that the Lan family had forgotten about it.
At least in the heart of the Lan family's patriarch, this matter had never been forgotten. Otherwise, he would not have withheld the position of the family patriarch from Lan Jingkuang all these years.
Clearly, the Lan family's patriarch had never been willing to forgive Lan Jingkuang in this matter.
If the Lan family's patriarch were to learn that the Yue family had been keeping Lan Yunxiao and Mu Lingbing imprisoned all this time, their relationship of many years would likely be reduced to nothing.
Suddenly, Yue Siqing frowned. Amidst the smell of explosives, she detected a strange scent.
Although the aroma was faint and mixed with the smell of gunpowder, making it difficult to discern, Yue Siqing, as a physician for many years, was keenly aware of many scents.
It was almost her sixth sense telling her that there was something amiss with the fragrance. She immediately spoke up, "Everyone, hold your breath. There may be something wrong with this scent!"
Upon hearing Yue Siqing's words, the people present were momentarily stunned but quickly followed her advice and held their breath.
After all, Yue Siqing's medical expertise was highly respected and convincing.
"What's the issue?" the patriarch of the Yue family asked.
"I feel that besides the smell of explosives, there is another scent present here. Regardless, it's better to be cautious," Yue Siqing calmly stated.
She wasn't sure if her judgment was accurate, but in such a situation, it was better to err on the side of caution.
Upon hearing this, the patriarch of the Yue family nodded. It was prudent to be cautious when facing an unexpected challenge directed at their family.
However, just at that moment, another explosion resounded.
