Chapter 30

Compared to the Ancient Lu Family Zudi, the supreme might it constantly emits is different.

Here, on the contrary, it resembles a celestial blessed land, carrying an aloof, unworldly flavor.

"Mm, we'll be at the mountain gate soon."

Purple Fairy responded, gazing at the familiar scenery.

Perhaps it was nerves from nearing her homeland, but her tone now carried a hoarseness.

"You are now the Holy Mother of the Lu Family; in terms of status, even placed in the Taiyi Sacred Land, you would only be lower than those elders, so now you can be considered returning home in glory." Jin Hui Laolao comforted.

But the latter not only was not happy; instead, she carried worry.

Because she greatly agreed with what Qin Yining had said earlier.

The so-called Holy Mother.

Except that it has some effect within the Lu Family itself.

To those outside forces, it is merely an empty title.

Especially the Holy Lord of the Taiyi Sacred Land, who is also her own master, as well as those elders holding real power.

Each of them has an extremely upright character; before them, she cannot even put on the airs of the Holy Mother.

"Ahead is the Taiyi Sacred Land; halt, travelers."

And it was at this moment that a stern shout rang out.

Immediately, several Rainbow Lights shot from within the mountain range into the void above.

They directly blocked the carriage; they emitted extremely overbearing Divine Power and faintly formed some kind of formation, but when they saw the insignia of the Ancient Lu Family on the carriage, they all looked at each other in surprise.

Their auras also weakened considerably.

If it were against ordinary cultivators.

These people would not show the slightest courtesy.

After all, backed by a sacred land, they are respected wherever they go.

But the Lu Family is an immortal-level hegemon.

The top power in the Dongsheng Dao Realm.

Even the Taiyi Sacred Land would need to retreat.

These disciples of the Taiyi Sacred Land naturally dare not be as overbearing as just now.

Instead, they bowed slightly, showing their respect.

"Go back and report: the Lu Family's Ninth Lineage, the Holy Mother wishes to enter the Taiyi Sacred Land to see the Holy Lord."

Jin Hui Laolao stepped out, treading the void, her tone calm, a faint aura of a sage emanating.

Even without relying on the Lu Family's might, those people before her are not worthy of a glance.

"Yes, we'll go report right away."

Upon hearing this, the disciples of the Taiyi Sacred Land all dared not be negligent.

Especially the leader, who directly transformed into a Rainbow Light and vanished in an instant.

Shortly after.

A blue-colored figure shot out from the depths of the sacred land.

It was a woman who appeared to be in her twenties.

Her visage was absolutely stunning, her bearing transcendent, and she appeared just like that before the carriage.

Before she could steady herself, she spoke in an anxious yet eager tone: "Is that Senior Sister Ziyun? I'm Lan Xuan!"

Lan Xuan?

The Purple Fairy inside the carriage.

Upon hearing those words, she instantly showed an excited expression.

Not caring about her appearance, she hurriedly stepped out and gazed at the woman before her.

She could hardly control her emotions; for a moment her whole body trembled, tears welling in her eyes: "Junior Sister!"

Seeing this, Jin Hui Laolao knew there was no danger, so she chose to silently retreat to the side, still highly vigilant.

If any mishap were to occur, she could react in an instant to protect the Purple Fairy.

At this moment, the two had already embraced, weeping as they held each other.

Just like sisters who had not seen each other for many years.

In fact.

Their respective masters are both the Holy Lord of the Taiyi Sacred Land.

And Lan Xuan had once been a Holy Maiden as well.

Because, like the ancient clans, the major sacred lands do not appoint only a single Saint Child and Saint Maiden; competition brings motivation, so the Taiyi Sacred Land usually has nine such individuals. Among them, Lan Xuan and Ziyun have the closest relationship.

They grew up together from childhood, truly like sisters in feeling.

But after the Purple Fairy married into the Lu Family and was expelled from the master's gate, the two have never seen each other since.

Now, upon reuniting, their hearts are filled with sighs and longing.

But after all, they are still cultivators.

They quickly calmed down.

Lan Xuan also, at once, noticed the other's belly: "Senior Sister, this is my unborn nephew who has already caused various omens and possesses a Primordial Dao Fetus?"

Seeing her long-unseen junior sister and then talking about the child,

The Purple Fairy finally showed a hint of a smile: "Mm, his name is Changsheng, Lu Zhangsheng."

"Changsheng? What a fine name."

Upon hearing this, Lan Xuan's eyes also held delight and affection.

Wanted to reach out and touch, but afraid of startling the child, finally had to withdraw.

Then she looked toward the senior sister in front of her and hurriedly said, "Let's go, we need to rush into the sacred land now and first see the master."

However, Purple Fairy suddenly hesitated, her face showing conflict: "Master, is she still blaming me?"

"Blame you?" Upon hearing that, Lan Xuan blinked, then chuckled softly and said, "Senior sister, you don't know—actually the master and the elders have already forgiven you, so there's no need to worry; just follow me."

"Wait... forgiveness."

Purple Fairy stared in shock: "Why?"

"What else could it be for?"

Lan Xuan smiled, pointed at her belly, and said, "Of course it's because of Little Changsheng, your child."

After saying that, she took the senior sister's hand and started explaining the full story.

It turned out that only a few years had passed since Purple Fairy was stripped of her saintess status.

The master, who is the Holy Master of the Taiyi Sacred Land,

deep down, she began to regret,

feeling that her earlier actions had been too rash, she started to miss Purple Fairy.

But because the incident had become public knowledge back then, and moreover many elders still held a grudge, she ended up doing nothing.

"So that's how it is."

Tears welled up in Purple Fairy's eyes.

But soon she raised a question: "What does that have to do with Changsheng?"

"How could it be unrelated? Changsheng is a Primordial Dao Fetus, a being ranked among the top ten of the Three Thousand Physiques."

"When that news first came out, those elders were each shocked and wanted to take a good look."

Saying this, Lan Xuan laughed: "But you also know the elders' tempers—stern on the outside, soft inside; as seniors they can't let go of their pride, so they wouldn't voluntarily go to the Lu Family, yet I know they've long wanted to see you and Changsheng."

After hearing all the explanations, Purple Fairy's heartache finally lifted as a great weight fell away.

All along, being expelled from the master's door has been a pain she cannot erase.

Wanting to repair the relationship, after all, no matter how you say it,

The Taiyi Sacred Land had a master and elders who taught her cultivation and treated her like a daughter, as well as her parents.

Now, hearing that everything was finally over, the tears in Purple Fairy's eyes could not be held back once again.

"Don't suffer anymore; it's all in the past now, senior sister—this place is still your home."

Lan Xuan saw the senior sister's appearance and felt a pang of heartache.

She knew that the other had suffered many grievances over the years.

Fortunately,

As just said, everything is now in the past.

Not long after, Purple Fairy finally calmed her emotions completely, then immediately thought of the true purpose of her trip and hurriedly said, "What about my mother? I heard the news and rushed over right away—is she alright?"

Upon saying that,

Lan Xuan, who had still been smiling, instantly changed expression.

She hesitated, seeming unable to speak.

And this.

This also made Purple Fairy suddenly have a bad premonition, and she trembled as she asked, "What exactly happened to my mother?"
