Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

Chapter 2784: Chapter 897: Peach Blossoms, Journey to the Jin Kingdom, Subconscious Memories (Two-in-One)

”Hmm, when you were young, she gave you a strand of Five Virtues Qi, a Divine Skill that only the Phoenix Clan can master. It’s quite extraordinary.”

The old woman gently stroked her head and smiled as she spoke, ”Your Heavenly Phoenix bloodline is likely inherited from your mother.”

Mu Que knew the effects of her bloodline.

Typically, any injuries she had would quickly self-heal, while her mother, as a Nascent Soul Cultivator, would be even stronger.

”Granny, why is there no memory of my father in my mind? Is he... still alive?” Mu Que couldn’t help but ask.

”Granny doesn’t know the Divination Art, so she can’t determine the situation of your father. Granny will help inquire about your parents’ whereabouts for you later.”

The old woman spoke to the young girl.

”Thank you, Granny.” The girl’s feelings were complex, expressing heartfelt gratitude to the old woman, feeling deeply indebted to her with no means to repay.

”Since you’ve already broken through Foundation Establishment, let’s go.”

Granny smiled, leaning on her jujube wood walking stick, leading her out of the City Lord Mansion.

”Granny, where are we going?” Mu Que asked.

”To a place that teaches you cultivation.”

The old woman spoke up, ”Granny has some things to do and can’t always be with you, so she will send you to a place where you can achieve the fastest growth.”

”After Granny finishes her tasks, I’ll come to pick you up.”

Mu Que felt a bit disheartened hearing that Granny had things to do and would be leaving her, but her face quickly turned resolute and seriously said, ”I will listen to Granny and diligently cultivate.”

She knew her parents’ situation was dire.

Only by diligently cultivating could she have a chance to investigate and find information about her parents.

As for Granny’s situation, she realized it was not simple, and she had to cultivate hard to assist Granny.

”Granny, when can I help you?” Mu Que clung to Granny and asked.

”Then little Que’er must cultivate diligently.”

Granny just smiled affectionately, not mentioning anything about the cultivation realm.

After all, the young girl before her was merely a seed she casually nurtured over her long years.

Whether it could blossom and bear fruit, helping herself, was an unknown.

She would not demand too much or place too many hopes.

...

Great Dream Immortal City.

Yun Meng Building.

Hong Lian received a message from Xu Ruyin and immediately came to Yun Meng Building, where she met Xu Ruyin, who had long fiery red hair and an elegant temperament.

”Miss Xu, you’ve broken through Core Formation, haven’t you?”

Even though Xu Ruyin had used a secret technique, her cultivation and mana were concealed, but how could she hide it from Hong Lian?

With one glance, Hong Lian could see that Xu Ruyin had broken through Core Formation, and her mana was abundant and her realm stable.

”Senior Hong Lian.”

Xu Ruyin had great respect for the Hong Lian before her and did not grow arrogant from awakening the Mystery of the Womb.

After all, the memories of her past life felt like a dream of yesterday, and she still had to face reality in the end.

Moreover, her memories were fuzzy and fragmented, making her unclear about the circumstances and origins of her past life.

”Miss Xu, where have you been these years?”

Hong Lian always treated Xu Ruyin as a close junior, expressing her concern for her.

”I’ve been in the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range all these years...”

Xu Ruyin did not conceal anything and candidly told Hong Lian that after leaving the Immortal City, she had gone to the Myriad Beasts Mountain Range, where she cultivated her Spiritual Pets through demon hunting.

However, during a dangerous encounter, she inadvertently discovered a broken Secret Realm.

This Secret Realm turned out to be a secret vault left by Azure Phoenix True Monarch, used for storing resources.

The Beast Technique she cultivated, along with her spiritual pet, the Heavenly Demon Phoenix, matched the prohibition methods of this Secret Realm.

Thus, she spent these years in this Secret Realm, using the resources from Azure Phoenix True Monarch’s vault to enhance her cultivation, successfully breaking through Core Formation.

”Azure Phoenix True Monarch’s secret vault?” Hong Lian was astonished.

It’s known that many cultivators have the habit of setting up multiple precautions.

They would store some resources at certain secret locations to prevent encountering danger and having their resources plundered.

Especially Nascent Soul Cultivators, who possess Nascent Soul projection capabilities, will prepare several secret vaults to ensure their ability to rise again when needed.

But for someone like Azure Phoenix True Monarch, a Nascent Soul Cultivator active in recent decades, the prohibition at their stash would surely be intact, without damage.

If someone forcibly attempted to crack it, triggering the prohibition would likely invite trouble.

Thus, most cultivators going for ancient cave mansions aim for older, dilapidated ruins.

These ruins are not only easier to crack but also do not pose the risk of the owner coming to reclaim them.

Xu Ruyin moving Azure Phoenix True Monarch’s secret vault is indeed audacious.

Yet recalling the rumors of Azure Phoenix True Monarch having disappeared following the Vast Sand Illusion Realm,

and with over thirty years passing without any related news,

even now, with Xu Ruyin tampering with Azure Phoenix True Monarch’s secret vault, if the other side does not appear, it seems this Azure Phoenix True Monarch has distanced themselves from Jiang Country and is not present on this side.

”I only realized after entering...”

Xu Ruyin explained.

Under normal circumstances, she naturally wouldn’t dare to tamper with Azure Phoenix True Monarch’s hidden vault.

But at that time, Heavenly Demon Phoenix had already breached a corner of the treasure vault’s prohibition.

”Azure Phoenix True Monarch had good relations with my husband, I’ll let him know later. This way, even if Azure Phoenix True Monarch learns about it afterward, they won’t pursue the matter too much.”

Hong Lian understood that before the prohibition is breached, it’s generally difficult to ascertain the master’s situation, so she didn’t blame her.

”Husband...” Xu Ruyin’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing the title.

Though she also referred to Lu Changsheng as her husband, the two had Lu Chensha as their son.

However, her feelings towards Lu Changsheng remained complex and indescribable.

Previously, upon breaking through Core Formation, she awakened some memories of her past life and considered many ways to handle this complex relationship.

Yet in Azure Phoenix Immortal City, upon hearing the astonishing feat of Dream City Master single-handedly defeating six Nascent Soul Cultivators, those emotions she had once been dominated by surfaced again - leaving her puzzled about how to face Lu Changsheng.
