Chapter 833: Treasure Land Descent

~8 min read 1,559 words

After spending days of leisure, the treasure land under the Regal Lei Clan, the Lightning Ancient God’s Abode had finally opened. The first one to feel the changes in the atmosphere around the outskirts is none other than those who possess the bloodline of the Lightning God. Dark clouds appeared in the part of the sky above the outskirt’s region and this location is where the Lightning Ancient God’s Abode.

Shan Du looked up in the sky the moment the relic from their treasure land started glowing. The relic is a small violet jade which was taken from the Lightning Ancient God’s Abode and would glow every time the treasure land descended in their world. This treasure land is like a living ruin which would come and go at certain times.

"It’s finally here. Children get ready to leave! Go make your final preparations. I’m going next door to pick up people,"said Shan Du.

Some children from the Regal Lei Clan who were given the surname Lei but not direct lineage were children sponsored by the clan to become an elite force of the family in the future. These kinds of servants were chosen while they were young and were given resources for their growth so they can serve their masters well in the future. Most of these children were from the collateral clans and some were talented individuals picked up by the main branch to be mentored and trained under their family clan.

Moreover, going to this treasure land had another reason to do so. That is to filter the people who were loyal enough to be adopted to the main branch of the clan and be officially adopted. At that time, Lei’s surname will be permanently theirs.

Next door, Yue Xuexia also felt the descend of the treasure land. Maybe because her bloodline from the lightning god was pure, she can somehow guess when this ruin would appear. This time he didn’t plan on bringing all the children with her, only those with great affinity with the lightning element can go with her. Like Yue Zhiya whose half of his blood was that of the Regal Lei Clan and Yue Hualei, who is a lotus flower spirit born from lightning tribulation itself.

Yue Xuexia wore violet-white robes with lightning patterns at the edges to show her connection to the Regal Lei Clan. Huan Li and Lei Liye were wearing the uniformed violet robes of their clan with grey lightning. It’s just that as a main member of the family, Lei Liye’s robe had golden robes. Yue Zhiya is also wearing the same thing as Lei Liye as their standing in the Lei Clan is the same. Only Yue Xuexia, like all older generations, can wear customized robes with lightning patterns.

This time, Yue Xuexia didn’t wear the mask artifact from her master and instead just wore a veil to cover half of her face. Anyway as long as she hides her face and doesn’t use the Moon Domain no one would recognize her.

Yue Xuexia left the care of the house and the other children to Yue Huashui and the elder Leopard who had signed a contract with her before to look after the children.

"Shui’er, watch over your siblings and listen to Aunt Leopard. We will be back soon,"said the Moon Goddess.

The Blue Lotus flower spirit, Yue Huashui said,"I promise to take care of them. Mom, Zhi’er, Lei’er, Ye’er and Li’er, be careful out there. Don’t get separated from Mom (Aunt Xue), okay?"

The four mentioned children nod their heads in promise to their eldest brother’s words. They give the rest of the children a hug before leaving the mansion with Yue Xuexia in lead. By the time they had come out of the mansion, Shan Du saluted to the Moon Goddess and as per request from the Princess, he had to call her Miss Xue instead of princess.

"Lady Xue, thank you for accompanying us on this journey,"said Shan Du.

The Moon Goddess said,"No worries. I will still listen to your instructions inside until I find the path I am looking for. Just focus on watching over the children."

Lei Liye and Huan Li rejoined the group while pulling Yue Zhiya and Yue Hualei into the group. These children already knew one another and had gotten along well. They also know that this young man who looks a bit like their little highness is also a little highness from the Moon Clan. The family connection between the Yue and Lei is so strong and thick that others see them as one family. That’s why these children were so welcoming of Yue Zhiya and Yue Hualei after learning that their surnames are Yue.

Though there might be some children in the batch from the Regal Lei Clan that might find the presence of Yue Xuexia and her children a bit annoying. After all, the children under Shan Xu’s protection weren’t the only ones to enter the treasure land. There are still people from the Dian and Huan clans.

Shan Du nods his head and summons a flying ship for them to ride on. After Shan Du, the Moon Goddess and the children had come on board, they immediately took off to the direction where the treasure land was located. It would take a few hours before they arrived at their designated location. Yue Xuexia brought a rocking chair with her to take a nap. As for the children they had all gathered in one place playing on the picnic map Yue Xuexia had Shan Du to scatter on the boat’s deck. There are also countless desserts, drinks and fruits laid on it which the children are enjoying.

As for why Shan Du is letting the children be free, it’s because of the presence of the princess. As soon as they flew on the boat, Yue Xuexia threw a formation barrier around the ship. Something that even a King realm cultivator will not be able to destroy. Knowing that they would be safe on the way to the ruins no matter what Shan Du can only let the children play as they wanted. Moreover with three your highness in the mix, he truly does not have a heart to lead the group.

There is also a fact that each child was given a tribulation pill and an defensive amulet to protect their lives within the treasure land. Shan Du was sure that even if there is a godking realm monster inside the treasure land none of these children would die at all.

At the entrance of the treasure land, the Lightning Ancient God’s Abode. Three flying ships landed, each ship was led by an elder from each of the collateral clans. Shan Du from Shan Clan, Dian Yin from the DIan Clan and Huan Xun from the Huan Clan. All of them were in the Peak Mahayama realm and each ship had a dozen children each. Adding Yue Xuexia, Yue Zhiya and Yue Hualei in the mix, there are at least forty plus people who had fathered at the entrance of the ruin. There are also those who gathered not faraway from the entrance and obviously they are cultivators not from the Regal Lei Clan.

Yue Zhiya asked,"Senior Shan Du, why are there other cultivators not from the clan?"

"Answering to his little highness’s question, the treasure land is split into three rings: Outer ring, middle ring and the inner ring. The outer ring of the treasure land is welcome to outsiders. As long as the gates were opened they were able to enter as well. However, the risk of being hit by lightning is still there. Though there are also some treasures at the outer ring, it cannot be compared to the middle and inner ring,"Shan Du said.

Yue Zhiya said,"I see. Cousin, where are we going to stay then?"

"Middle ring, I guess. Mom said, if there is no adult guiding us we can only enter the middle ring,"said Lei Liye.

Yue Xuexia who had just finished checking the extent of the treasure land suddenly said,"Zhi’er, Ye’er, Lei’er and Li’er will come with me to the inner region. There is a lightning source hot spring for you to strengthen your physiques. The other children will not be able to bear the hot spring so stay only at the middle ring."

Shan Du wasn’t surprised to hear that the two little princes and the natural born flower spirit from lightning would be able to accompany the princess to the inner region but Huan Li, despite being Prince Liye’s guard, wouldn’t be able to bear the lightning source the princess mentioned.

He couldn’t help but worry and ask,"Lady Xue, Huan Li is..."

"Don’t worry about him. I can help him bear it. If you aren’t in duty, you should come soak in as well. Your new physique should be able to bear it as well,"said Yue Xuexia.

With this reminder, Shan Du keeps this in mind. He can ask a friend to watch over the children for him in a bit and soak into the lightning source hot springs as instructed by the princess.

All of the sudden, a malicious voice resounds near them saying with a mocking tone.

"What the hell is this? Did our Shan Du bring his bitch over during his clan mission?"
