Chapter 423: Follow the Wife-Master Sister

"Put your hands into Great Purity." Di Hao already knew the answer in his heart, "There will be an answer."

"Don't stretch!" Jiu Li firmly objected, "What stretching? Last time we had no choice!"

"Now everyone's been saved! Who would still reach in? That's not brainless, is it?"

"Yu Jia also disagreed, staring at Di Hao, 'You're going too far.'"

"But I'm just stating the facts." Di Hao's expression was calm, "I hadn't planned to say this before, but now it seems I must."

"What do you mean!" Jiu Li panicked! It can't be true, it's just that dead old geezer's nasty trick! How could a couple become siblings?

"I misspoke." Di Hao said again.

Jiu Li was about to sigh in relief…

Di Hao then said, "They're siblings, not brother and sister."

Jiu Li then wanted to burst out cursing!

However, Di Hao continued, "You two are of the same womb, one yin one yang. Yin is the elder sister, yang the younger brother. Your bloodlines are linked, yin and yang coexisting. Elder sister, you should be the Great Purity Virtuous Junior Venerable; younger brother, you are the Great Purity Heaven-Governing Junior Venerable."

"Your mother is Great Purity. By placing your hands into her lingering aura, you can sense that this is indeed the origin of your conception."

Upon these words…

The hall fell into an extreme silence.

Still, Shen Qingli was the first to react.

She had already taken Di Jin's hand and reached into that mass of primordial chaos in Great Purity.

"Activate your bloodlines." Di Hao said again.

"Don't!" Jiu Li wanted to stop her!

But Shen Qingli had already activated it.

She wanted to know the truth…

As for Di Jin, he didn't need to activate anything.

When Shen Qingli's aura enveloped his hand, a cluster of clear misty light also appeared in his palm.

What was in Shen Qingli's palm was a mass of dense black…

"This isn't anything," Jiu Li thought to say, at most it's a black-and-white match, even more fitting!

But since Di Hao dared to let them verify, he naturally had his resolve and would not be undermined.

Thus, their black and white auras had already intertwined, faintly matching Great Purity's aura.

That primordial chaos, which seemed nonexistent, now faintly manifested as truly existing.

The key is! Whether Shen Qingli or Di Jin, both felt a particularly close aura.

Shen Qingli's voice drifted faintly, "Then my father and mother, and also—"

"You merely underwent your destined tribulation. Unlike you and your brother, you were born and immediately entered the world." Di Hao stated calmly.

"Then why don't your subordinates honor A Li as Junior Venerable?" Yu Jia asked sharply!

Di Hao glanced at it lightly, "She was originally destined to belong to the Three Pure, not Great Purity. Her fate was set from birth. Though siblings, they have different paths."

"I still feel something's off!" Jiu Li also didn't believe, "A Li's great-grandfather is clearly Pan Zu! How could her mother become Great Purity?"

Di Hao didn't explain; he himself knew well, the more he said the more wrong, but he was indeed certain! His wicked son and Shen Qingli indeed have a subtle yin-yang symbiosis.

If it weren't for the Taiqing Hall needing to sever karma with the Three Pure Heavens, he would actually be quite pleased with this marriage.

Unfortunately, it must be severed.

"I believe."

Di Jin, however, spoke up.

Jiu Li then felt a headache!

"I also believe."

Shen Qingli withdrew her hand.

If they weren't true siblings, how could their auras be interconnected?

But she felt even worse?

Strange, a younger brother isn't bad, is he?

Raised brother becoming a real brother should be better; she no longer dislikes this brother.

"As long as you understand, that's fine." Di Hao also tired, "A Li has her own path, not suited to stay in Great Purity; you—"

Raising his eyes at a certain rebellious son, Di Hao emphasized, "No more troublemaking, go back and cultivate properly!"

"You're truly outrageous." Di Jin looked speechless, "How could I let my sister go alone? Of course I'm going to follow her."

Even if he forgot, Di Jin is still Di Jin!

With a sister, one must certainly follow the wife-master sister!

Di Hao: "……"

"What do you mean by 'the sister has her own path, not suited to stay in Great Purity'? Great Purity belongs to us two, what's it to you?" Di Jin argued with reason and evidence, "We were born from Great Purity, you—could you not be our father?"

Di Hao felt a headache! It was truly a headache.

After all, treating Zhong Minglan had already consumed too much!

Today's lie also indeed has some loopholes, but he can't worry about that anymore.

We must, before Great Purity's power can still restrain them, let them sever completely!

Although it's unclear how this wicked wretch remembers Shen Qingli as that "sister," and also puzzling how Shen Qingli also remembers this wicked wretch!

But since they severed love and affection before Great Purity! Then it's absolutely impossible for them to still have love or affection.

So, Di Hao just judged that perhaps they found a loophole, retaining the feelings before love arose!

Thus he decisively brought them to recognize "mother," and indeed both deeply believed without doubt! That was enough.

……

At present, facing Di Jin's doubts, Di Hao spoke bluntly, 'I actually really hope it's not!'

After all, this scoundrel really is his son; otherwise, how could he and everyone in Taiqing Dian have been delayed so long?

I,

Enough!

Di Hao no longer wasted words.

"A Li may stay if she wishes, but her current parents, relatives, friends, and even her guardian beast must all be severed."

I,

In a quarter of an hour, I will completely close Taiqing. Thereafter, the heavenly gate will not be opened again.

Di Hao knew very well that Shen Qingli could not possibly abandon her kin; this destined her to leave!

"As for Di Jin, he also said, 'You may follow along if you wish, for you grew up in Taiqing Dian from childhood, unlike your sister, who entered the world at birth and already has deep ties to Taiqing Dian.'"

Therefore, if you leave, Yuan Wu and the others will be unable to escape the Three Pure Ones. Given their age and the current state of the Three Pure Ones, their days are numbered.

Di Hao believed!

Without that life-and-death love!

It's merely sibling affection; Di Jin can make a decisive choice.

He'll just forget it; he has self-awareness.

Yuan Wu and the others actually treat this scoundrel Di Jin not too badly.

However, Di Jin's point is, 'Then wouldn't my sister also be unable to escape the Three Pure Ones?'

"Not bad." Di Hao also bluntly said, "That's why I said she already has her own path; you two are destined not to walk the same road. Originally it should be so—siblings growing up naturally each follow their own way."

Each time he mentioned the word 'siblings,' Di Hao's tone grew heavier, as if reinforcing the sibling bond between Di Jin and Shen Qingli.

This actually works. After all, given Di Hao's stature, his words naturally carry the resonance of the Dao.

The more he emphasizes it, the more Di Jin and Shen Qingli will subtly come to believe it.

After all, they were originally severed from affection and insulated; now they indeed only have left a familial bond that shouldn't exist, binding them.

Yu Jia, as an 'old hand,' has already realized this, but she cannot stop it!

After all, Di Hao is carrying out the oath and promise that Shen Qingli and Di Jin themselves made to Taiqing.

Jiu Li is the same; it's almost dying of anxiety, unable to speak, and in the end it just gave up, saying, "Forget it! Whatever, let it be destroyed."

At least this sentence can be spoken.

Shen Qingli looked at it, sensed its agitation, and gently stroked it.

However, she had already told Di Jin, 'You stay; I'll go my own way. After all, you've grown up and have your own path to walk.'

I,

Di Jin obviously unwilling!

Just decided like that.

Shen Qingli, however, was very resolute!

As Di Hao expected, she truly could not possibly abandon her kin.

Although she forgot everything about Di Jin, she still remembers clearly her experiences with Shen Kuo, Zhong Minglan, and indeed all of the Shen family.

Based on those experiences and memories, Di Jin—the brother taken away long ago—and Di Hao, who was never really a father, are indeed not that important.

So, one must say, Di Hao's move! Is quite ruthless.

The old fogies like Yuan Wu Zhenjun outside the hall have already understood, but can only sigh in their hearts.

Ginger is indeed old and spicy! The Emperor lives up to his title, being too adept at adapting to circumstances.

From the moment the Young Lord and Young Lady chose to forget, it was destined that they would lose.

The Emperor has plenty of means and methods, and he even used the despicable tactic of sibling kin.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would almost have been deceived.

The Young Lord has always been an only child; where did a sister come from?

"Sigh."

Even Yuan Wu Zhenjun couldn't bear to listen any further.

They even thought the Young Lord had already remembered everything!

Turns out not, so there's nothing to be done.

……

Outside Taiqing Dian.

Shen Yuan, Shen Qinghuang, and the elders like Tian Qing Lao Zu, who had been waiting all along.

At this moment they are all looking forward, not only hoping for Shen Kuo and Zhong Minglan to recover and return.

They also hoped that perhaps the young couple who caused them heartache might have a turning point!

However, when Shen Qingli's group walked out of the heavenly gate, Di Jin was not among them.

Their suspended hearts could not leap even a bit.

As expected, still impossible?

"Little brother-in-law, are you still dead?"

Shen Qinghuang felt terrible inside; he had thought it wouldn't be a real death!

Although at the time he indeed saw no signs of life! But that was the Young Lord of Taiqing Dian!

Even for people like them, as long as their physical bodies remain and their souls have not scattered, the chance of survival is great!

But the little brother-in-law cannot……?

Shen Yuan's and the Old Ancestor Tian Qing's faces all fell.

Those who saw off Shen Qingli's group leaving the Heavenly Gate, the True Monarch Yuanwu also felt sigh.

After all, they all know that the Sovereign Emperor keeps his word; this time the Heavenly Gate's closure will definitely never be opened again.

And the Young Sovereign, since he didn't recall his true relationship with Shen Qingli, as time passes, the already not-so-deep sibling bond will gradually fade and be forgotten.

Will it?

"Sister!"

Di Jin still subconsciously wanted to catch up!

"Do you want to implicate her because you and Tai Qing are also too deeply involved, making it impossible to stay with her family?"

Di Hao's warning was like a spell! It lightly and easily suppressed Di Jin's restless heart that wanted to follow.

Speaking of which, he had also figured out that Di Jin, even if he didn't remember, would still consider Shen Qingli.

As the saying goes, none knows a son better than his father; indeed, that's true.

He understood Di Jin too well.

No, should say, he understood human nature too well.

At least regarding Di Jin and Shen Qingli, he understood them very well.

"Close."

Di Hao's divine sense settled.

That Heavenly Gate closed.

However—

When this door was tightly shut.

The youthful vigor on Di Jin's face completely faded.

He turned his back, facing away from the door that separated him and his sister, and looked at Di Hao.
