Chapter 1638: Together for Life 46

ing at his fearless eyes, the hidden darkness in his pupils flickered with a crimson glow. "Xi'er, I leave him to you.""Drive him out of the camp, and forbid him from setting foot in Linxi County ever...Yao Wan Ying patted Feng Ling Xi's hand, "Xi'er, there are some things your mother hasn't asked, but that doesn't mean she doesn't know."

Feng Ling felt flustered in her heart. Her mother's eyes were like fire-watching golden eyes, as if they could see through everything about her. Before her mother, she felt like a child, restless and uneasy.

"Mother, what is the treasure in the cemetery"

Feng Lingxi hesitated for a moment before voicing her doubts. They were captured here, knowing even the entrance to the Yaozu. Even if someone could come to save her, they might not be able to enter.

"Something that can allow the Yao Clan to rule the world, but it will also plunge the world into chaos. Ancestor's warning: Primarily use gunpowder, it can destroy heaven and earth."

Feng Lingxi's body trembled, wasn't that gunpowder

Could our ancestors have already invented gunpowder a thousand years ago

But if she cannot leave, as long as she keeps the gunpowder formula buried, who could possibly make it

Feng Lingxi frowned, something was amiss here.

Yao Wan'ying looked at Feng Lingxi, her gaze, every move she made, she watched them all. As expected, the records of the ancestors were not wrong, Xi’er was indeed the destined person who could change the Yao clan. She knew how to do it.

"Xi'er, your mother asks you, if giving you up would bring peace and well-being to the world and your child for a lifetime, would you be willing"

Feng Lingxi looked at her mother, clenched her fists. Could she possibly refuse

She couldn't say how great she was, but she knew clearly that every day of her life was a gift. If she truly had to sacrifice herself to bring peace to the world and ensure the well-being of her children, she had no choice but to agree.

Of course.

Feng Lingxi looked at her mother, "I know that if you were me, you would do the same."

There's another secret in the cemetery, a method for ancestors to return to their time. It has to be said, our ancestors were truly amazing, possessing abilities rivaling those of gods.

Yao WanYing's voice brimmed with admiration for her ancestors' abilities, but Feng LingXi knew that the seemingly godlike powers her mother spoke of would all be achievable in the future.

"Mother, what do you want Xier to do"

"With your ability, destroy the cemetery, destroy the Yao Clan."

Feng Lingxi clenched her fists. Her abilities destroyed the cemetery and the Yao Clan. What her mother said sounded simple, but she really found it difficult.

"Mother, Xi'er wants to go to the cemetery, will you accompany me"

Yao Wan Ying nodded, holding Feng Ling Xi's hand, "Then you listen to your mother's arrangements next. Mother promises you, as long as mother is not dead, Xi'er will be fine."

Feng Lingxi smiled, "Xi'er trusts her mother. Regardless of life or death, Xi'er will be with her mother."

Perhaps this is what it means to be family. Feng Lingxi believed wholeheartedly in every word Yao Wan'ying said. Her mother's every utterance filled her with a sense of her mother's unwavering protection, making her willing to pay any price and face any challenge for her words.

If sacrificing her alone could make the Yao clan disappear and destroy the so-called treasures of the Yao clan, bringing peace to the world, why wouldn't she do it At least she would have been a hero once.

"Go to them and tell them that you want to go to the holy land with me, actively open the gate of the Yao Clan's holy land, and let the Great Elder assist you. He is eager for us to go down and investigate."

"What if he followed"

Feng Lingxi asked, looking at her mother with confidence, "He can't get in. The gate of the Holy Land is only accessible to the Holy Master."

"Mother, is the blood of the Holy Lord right"

Yao Wan-ying nodded. “Opening the gates of the Holy Land requires the blood of the Saint Lord, which is us.”

"Mother, I have a question. Aren't we descendants of our ancestors"

If not, how can it be proven that their blood can open the gates of the Holy Land

“Well, the Holy Lord is a descendant of our ancestors. We all are. At first, we were all part of the Yao Clan here. But over time, we gradually placed the Holy Lord around the Yuan Dynasty and the Wilderness Summer. The purpose was to keep us away from here.”

"In that case, the Yao clan should have been ruled by the Saint Lord. It's all due to the actions of the Grand Elder and previous clan leaders that they've fallen to this state."

Yao Wan'ying sighed, "Our ancestors once set rules stating that members of the Yao clan could live freely wherever they pleased in any way they desired, as long as they didn't reveal their identity. The affairs of the Yao clan were left to be managed by the clan leader. However, over time, the clan leader gradually replaced the position of the Saint Master, putting them underfoot. The Saint Masters had always lived according to their whims, and the clan leaders built branches for them to reside in. Over time, they became divided and separated."

"So it seems that this is all the work of our ancestors themselves."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking, and Yao Wan'ying didn't refute. Indeed, it was so.

If our ancestors hadn't acted the way they did, things wouldn't be like this today.

"The Gate of the Holy Land needs the blood of the Saint Master to open, which means that only the descendants of the ancestors can open the Gate of the Holy Land."

Feng Lingxi analyzed on her own, Yao Wan'ying nodded, "Indeed, so the Great Elder could only obtain these two sacred artifacts, Zi Xing Bai Liuli, entrusted by his ancestors, to enter."

"Mother, can the holy relic really open the gates to the Holy Land"

Feng Ling Xi remembered Bai Liuli, at that time the purple star was placed inside, emitting a purple light. She still remembers it vividly to this day. Although she didn't know what material it was made of, there was no denying that Bai Liuli gave off an aura of sacredness.

"Amethyst and white jade inlaid on the gate of the holy land, then let the maiden's blood sacrifice, open the gate of the holy land."

"When Yao WanYing said this, Feng LingXi's head buzzed. Was their ancestor trying to kill her descendants"

The girl's blood, no wonder the Grand Elder has been eyeing her daughter covetously. It turns out he wants Wan'er's blood for a blood sacrifice. She now understands why they were so happy when she gave birth to her daughter.

"Mother, is it really necessary to be ten years old or older to perform a blood sacrifice"

"He should have been twelve years old. The Elder was afraid you would notice, so he planned to let Wan'er be a blood sacrifice after ten years of age, opening the gate of the Holy Land. These years, however, he has never been able to find Bai Liuli, so he has not made a move."

It's no wonder that no one wants to take the Purple Star now, because Bai Liuli is not here. Getting the Purple Star would be useless without her, and besides, everyone knows that the Purple Star is on her person. The Grand Elder doesn't worry about the Purple Star's whereabouts at all; he just wants to take this opportunity to find Bai Liuli and wait until Wan'er turns ten years old.

"Xier, without Wan'er, if you still had a daughter, or even just a descendant of the ancestors, they could all become candidates for blood sacrifice. So, even if it wasn't Wan'er, there would be other people targeted by them."

Feng Lingxi nodded, she now understood. It turned out that the blood sacrifice wasn't only for Wan'er. If Siqi reached ten years old, she would also become a target for the Grand Elder to sacrifice.u. Whatever you want to tell her, I will convey it for you."Tell Empress Dowager that this Prince is well and ask her not to worry.Dugu Cheng's reply made a slight stiffness appear on Dugu Xiu's face,...
