Chapter 412: Chapter 210: Heavenly Secret Concealment (Part 6)

”Otherwise...”

”No need!” Liu Qingfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, speaking in a deep voice.

”Do you know that young master’s identity?”

Liu Yiran recalled briefly and said, ”I heard that gentleman say, he is Young Master Chongxu...”

Liu Qingfeng nodded, a strange light flickering in his eyes as he murmured, ”The ’Chong’ generation, that means he’s of the same generation as the current Patriarch of the main family.”

”Being able to follow him is our honor.”

”Moreover... considering Young Master Chongxu’s age, he probably isn’t married yet...”

He suddenly turned around and looked earnestly at his sister, saying, ”Ah Ran, this is your opportunity!”

Liu Yiran was slightly taken aback, then blushed a little as she said, ”Brother, what are you talking about?”

”I... How could the young master possibly be interested in me?”

”Ah Ran, listen to your brother.” Liu Qingfeng gripped his sister’s shoulders tightly, his expression frantic as he said, ”He is the brother of the current Patriarch of the main family.”

”Even if you don’t marry him as a wife or concubine, as long as you bear the Shen Family’s bloodline, our sibling’s status will immediately rise!”

A look of disbelief appeared on the girl’s face, unable to believe that her brother could utter such words.

”Brother, how did you become like this?”

Liu Yiran spoke with grievance, her voice sorrowful and desolate.

Seeing his sister’s expression, Liu Qingfeng released her shoulders, clenched his fists in resentment, and said, ”I know saying this makes me despicable!”

”But mother wished for a status until her dying day, to have her token placed in the Liu Family’s ancestral hall!”

”For all these years, you and I have been cultivating desperately, risking our lives for the family, yet we are still secretly scorned as ’bastards’, did you know?”

At the mention of their mother, tears suddenly welled up in Liu Yiran’s eyes.

Their mother was originally a popular opera singer in Xingyang City, quite beautiful.

Years ago, when the Elder Patriarch of the Liu Family celebrated his birthday, the opera troupe was invited to perform at the mansion.

She was then deceived into giving herself to their father, the current Patriarch of the Liu Family, Liu Jing, with sweet lies.

After the siblings were born, their mother never received the promised status from their father, not even willing to reveal her identity for fear of being punished by the Clan Court.

After their mother passed away in grief, the siblings were discovered to possess Spirit Roots during a screening.

Ultimately, they were secretly brought to the mansion by their father’s people.

Publicly, it was stated that they were born to a late concubine.

The siblings have been cultivating desperately for years, just to earn achievements and have their father acknowledge their mother’s status.

But as the siblings displayed talent in cultivation, their eldest brother became increasingly resentful, arranging for them to leave the city on a task to find abandoned Spirit Fields, seeking a chance to eliminate them.

”Let’s go, if you don’t wish to, then pretend I never said anything.”

”Now that Young Master Chongxu has agreed to accept our sibling, perhaps there’s no need to resort to such vile means.”

Seeing his sister’s tears flowing ceaselessly, Liu Qingfeng felt sorrow in his heart and sighed.

The siblings immediately flew in the direction where Shen Chongxu and his companions had left.

...

Northern Territory of Danzhou, Celestial Yin Mountain.

Here lies the sect of one of Danzhou’s Upper Three Sects, the Yinhe Sect.

On the summit of a towering peak, covered in snow, the cold wind howled.

A woman in a pink palace dress, exuding noble grace, stood quietly on the mountaintop, her stunning face appearing even purer and more elegant against the snow, truly embodying the phrase ”can only be admired from afar, not to be trifled with.”

Beside the woman, Wei Chengyu, clad in a dark red cloak of the Suihuo Sect, observed the rolling sea of clouds in the distance.

”Your plan seems less than perfect.”

The woman’s voice was gentle, giving a sense of a gentle breeze upon hearing it.

Wei Chengyu chuckled and shook his head.

”Indeed there were some miscalculations.”

”That Demon Dragon surprisingly doesn’t care about the descendants of the Daying Immortal Mansion.”

The woman glanced at him with a slight smile and said, ”I think the pressure from the Southern Border isn’t enough yet.”

”If the descendants of the Daying Immortal Mansion are about to be wiped out, that Demon Dragon shouldn’t sit idly by.”

”After all, Ye Mengxuan, the ancestor of the Dragon Taming Clan, considered him a brother back in the day.”

”In the end, to protect him, he crafted a Grand Array with an Outer Heaven Immortal Crystal, allowing him to survive within, absorbing the essence of Yangnao Land to extend his life.”

Wei Chengyu pondered for a long time, then murmured deeply.

”Perhaps.”

”However, I’ve already sent someone to the Southern Border, but they encountered a minor mishap. It seems some mysterious entity has contacted the four Nascent Soul Realm elders of the Southern Border in advance.”

”Not only are those four unwilling to show themselves, but they’re also secretly restraining other forces from heading to Yangnao Land.”

”Oh?” The noble woman showed a hint of surprise.

”Given that rumor, for those four old fools to hold back, it seems your so-called mysterious entity must have offered something more enticing...”

”Could it be that aside from the Demon Dragon, the Great Prosperity True Monarch left something else behind?”

Wei Chengyu shook his head slightly, his eyes deep as he spoke.

”Impossible.”

”Without that Outer Heaven Immortal Crystal, the Demon Dragon couldn’t have escaped back then.”

”As for the remaining Yangnao Seven Sons, I witnessed their demise with my own eyes back then.”

”Even if someone of them were to reincarnate with Golden Nature, without experiencing three lifetimes, they could never reach the Nascent Soul Realm.”

The noble woman slowly paced, reaching a flat spot on the mountaintop, sweeping the snow away with a wave.

With a flash of light from her hand, she produced a five-foot jade table, followed by taking out Spirit Wine and a Spirit Fruit Plate.

Seeing this, Wei Chengyu paused slightly before stepping forward to sit across from her.

Taking the Spirit Wine that the noble woman offered, he spoke slowly.

”Have you confirmed the situation regarding that old man on Celestial Monarch Mountain?”

”If it’s confirmed that he has passed away rather than broken through, you could free up some efforts to help me.”

The noble woman poured herself a glass of wine and drank it after raising her cup.

”It’s not that easy.”

”That old man trained in the Path of Great Derivation with Golden Nature, crafting a ’Heavenly Secret Concealment.’”

”As long as he doesn’t make a move, even if he stands right in front of us, we can’t detect it.”

Wei Chengyu sighed slightly.

”Jiang Xiuqi of Luoxia Mountain is also merging with Golden Nature.”

”With his aptitude and Luoxia Mountain’s resources, he shouldn’t have the chance to succeed in achieving the Golden Core Dao, it’s truly strange...”

At the mention of this, the noble woman’s face revealed a hint of displeasure.

Luoxia Mountain is precisely the intruder in Yangnao Land; if not for Jiang Xiuqi’s existence, the Southern Border might have already exterminated the common people and cultivators of Yangnao Land.

If the distant Demon Dragon in Central Province had any sentimentality, it wouldn’t sit idly by while the bloodline of Daying Immortal Mansion and Dragon Taming Clan is utterly obliterated.

”That Underworld is truly useless, knowing in advance that Jiang Xiuqi would break through, yet failing to seize his Golden Nature.”

”Now, we’ve ended up with an unnecessary formidable enemy.”

Wei Chengyu drank the Spirit Wine in his hand completely and said, ”Let’s not mention them anymore. What needs to be done now is to find a way to lure that Demon Dragon away.”

”And also to locate the immortal mansion left by the Great Prosperity True Monarch.”

The noble woman nodded, then switched the topic, ”How does the Shen Family in Yangnao Land fare now?”

On mentioning the Shen Family, Wei Chengyu’s expression turned a bit peculiar.

After some contemplation, he smiled lightly and said, ”Rather an interesting family, but there’s no need to worry for now.”

”With careful planning, perhaps in the future, they could be of use to our sect.”

Wei Chengyu spoke with confidence, gazing in the direction of Yangnao Land.
