Chapter 590: Final Showdown 70: Does Liu Ruoyan Like Lu Xuan?

Hand over the Ancestor's Inheritance, or we will destroy the sect!

The voice fell, and like thunder it shook the heavens and earth where the Thousand Illusion Sect resides.

The gray‑robed man blinked slightly, his face turning grim as he looked toward Liu Ruoyan atop the cloud ship.

Outside rumors said Liu Ruoyan had gotten together with Yun Xi, but no one expected it to be true.

Now Yun Xi actually wants the Thousand Illusion Sect's Ancestor's Inheritance for Liu Ruoyan's sake!

At that moment.

Liu Ruoyan gazed down at the several stars where the Thousand Illusion Sect lay, and a ripple inevitably stirred in her heart.

Here the illusion formation is vast, covering the boundless starry sky; the countless dao patterns are profoundly mysterious and obscure, far surpassing the formations of the Alluring Sect.

The gray‑robed man looked at Yun Xi and bowed respectfully, saying, "Your Highness the Sixth Prince, this matter…"

Yun Xi said coldly, "Too much nonsense. Today you will hand it over whether you like it or not."

Upon these words, all the guards on the dozens of spiritual boats behind him stepped forward.

Their momentum was overwhelming!

Yun Xi ordered, "Attack the Thousand Illusion Sect!"

Soon, the many leaders directly produced their Spiritual Weapons, ready to strike; killing intent filled the air and their momentum was overwhelming.

The gray‑robed elder's face turned pale.

Just as Yun Xi's forces were about to step forward, a voice rang out from within the Thousand Illusion Sect.

"Give Liu Ruoyan a share of the inheritance!"

An withered phantom emerged, his breath feeble, appearing like a piece of rotting wood.

Yun Xi snorted coldly, "At least you're sensible."

Liu Ruoyan slowly stepped off the cloud ship, followed by several experts of the High Star Myriad Phenomena Realm, and entered the main sect of the Thousand Illusion Sect.

The old phantom led Liu Ruoyan into the Land of Inheritance, saying, "Liu Ruoyan, the Ancestor's Vanishing Fire, the inheritance has been split into two parts. Choose one for yourself."

Liu Ruoyan curled the corner of her mouth in a cold smile, extended her jade hand, seized it, and said, "I want them both!"

The old phantom frowned, "Liu Ruoyan, don't be too greedy!"

Liu Ruoyan gave a bewitching smile, "Then let's fight! See if your Thousand Illusion Sect can withstand the Sixth Prince's army—or, even if his army is utterly annihilated, can you withstand the wrath of the Divine Martial Emperor?"

"You…"

The old phantom trembled with anger.

Liu Ruoyan said nothing and stepped straight into the Land of Inheritance.

Moments later, several elders of the Thousand Illusion Sect stepped out, gazing at Liu Ruoyan's back with eyes full of killing intent.

Several elders looked toward the old phantom and asked, "Ancestor, are you really going to let Liu Ruoyan take our sect's Ancestor's Inheritance?"

The old phantom transmitted a secret whisper, "We have no choice; the Supreme Fox Clan is about to open the Fox Blessing Holy Land. We must secretly assist, for this is the rule set by the Ancestor."

Several elders said, "I've heard a genius named Liu Xuan has emerged from a branch sect, her talent said to rival the Ancestor's. If Liu Ruoyan takes the Ancestor's Inheritance, our sect will lose hope of rising."

The old phantom chuckled, "It's fine; these two inheritances are mutually exclusive, each containing a different Dao. Liu Ruoyan cannot possibly possess both."

And then.

Inside the Land of Inheritance, two paths appeared.

The two Dao of the Ancestor's Inheritance!

The Path of Illusion Arts!

Liu Ruoyan looked at these two Paths of Illusion Arts and felt some hesitation.

Her long skirt billowed, and she finally understood why the old phantom had said she could obtain only one of the inheritances.

These two Dao are mutually exclusive!

One is 'True', the other is 'False'.

So‑called illusion arts can also lead to truth.

And truth can also lead to illusion arts.

The 'True' Path of Illusion Arts is not merely about entering the game with one's body, as simple as her scheme against the Sixth Prince Yun Xi; it truly demands a sacrifice.

If she walks the 'True' Path, then that time she will truly lose her virtue to the Sixth Prince Yun Xi, not merely in an illusion within an illusion.

Whereas the 'False' Illusion Path makes others believe it is real, while in fact everything is false.

These two Dao cannot coexist.

Liu Ruoyan snorted coldly; it seemed the old phantom already knew which Dao she would choose.

Soon.

Liu Ruoyan stepped into the 'False' Path.

Boom!

A terrifying aura poured out from the Secret Realm; illusion power turned into countless threads, continually weaving illusions, the dense dao patterns constantly surging, and the Ancestor's power kept pouring forth.

Liu Ruoyan sat cross‑legged, and endless divine radiance appeared around her.

The Thousand Illusion Sect's stellar power continually poured into Liu Ruoyan's body.

She murmured to herself.

'What real thing exists in this world?'

'It's all just a performance.'

Asking herself, she recalled that when she was young she met Dao Yi, and her heart had only stirred a little ripple.

As for the men she met later, they were merely fleeting glances, passing strangers.

The aura of the 'False' Path grew heavier upon Liu Ruoyan.

At the same time, her cultivation kept surging!

One-star Myriad Phenomena Realm!

Two-star Myriad Phenomena Realm!

Finally halted at the Three-star Myriad Phenomena Realm!

Just then.

"Crack!"

Inside her body, the Ancient Ancestor's mark suddenly snapped a thread.

Boom!

The inner world, like a vast expanse of heaven and earth, was profoundly obscure and archaic, even comparable to this star of the Thousand Illusions Sect.

A fragmentary image appeared, and Liu Ruoyan was utterly stunned……

The Primeval Era—her true identity!

She too had once been a Primordial Ancient Ancestor, Mei.

And at that time, this Star Sea revered the Ancient Ancestor, Mister.

They all addressed him this way.

Simply because he was the first Ancient Ancestor of this heaven and earth, an Ancient Ancestor born together with heaven and earth.

Although she too was a Primordial Ancient Ancestor, she was born after Mister, and in both comprehension and strength she fell far short of him.

Then.

Mister donned a white robe, a faint divine radiance flowing over him, and sat upon the heavens lecturing.

Even she listened with relish.

Moreover, more importantly, she seemed to like Mister?

Liu Ruoyan stood stunned in place.

This……is this her previous life's true form?

I never expected that I, too, am an Ancient Ancestor!!

Moreover, as a Primordial Ancient Ancestor, she is stronger than the God Martial Emperor and the Star River Alliance Chief!!

But what happened afterward?

Even as strong as she was, she actually fell into the cycle of reincarnation.

Mister is invincible, also perfect; the only imperfection is that he does not like himself.

Thinking of this.

A thread of affection for Mister rose in Liu Ruoyan's heart.

Although it was merely a fragmentary image, it directly aroused the desire in Liu Ruoyan's heart.

She never imagined she would also have someone she likes.

"Hahaha!"

Liu Ruoyan burst into laughter.

She understood.

Why, in the darkness, has she always maintained her Yin Primordial Body?

This is reserved for Mister!!

Wait a moment.

Liu Ruoyan suddenly furrowed her brows, 'If even I am not dead, then Mister must have been sealed as well—he certainly isn't dead! Who is he in this lifetime? Mister, with his grand talents and ability to govern the world, would surely not languish in the Star Sea.'

Boom!

Countless figures appeared in Liu Ruoyan's mind.

After a moment, she cried out a name: 'White-robed Star Venerable, Lu Xuan?'
