Chapter 426 424: Mischievous Child Sneaks into the Ancestral Land
"Ai Chirou, is this Invisibility Talisman really effective?"
Not far from the entrance of the Long Family Ancestral Land, Wang Lanxi looked at the group of Martial Emperors at the entrance, her gaze finally resting on the Blood Demon Envoy, and she said with some worry, "That guy is a Half-step Martial God, after all."
"Granny Wang, don't worry. This is an Emperor-Level Invisibility Talisman refined by my father. As long as we don't use any energy and there's no Martial God around, we won't be detected," Chu Chen said proudly.
Chu Xin also nodded and said in a low voice, "Although that guy is a Half-step Martial God, he is not a true Martial God after all. He definitely won't discover us."
"Alright, you guys wait outside for me, don't go in."
Wang Lanxi nodded and instructed.
"Why?"
Chu Xin asked, puzzled.
Wang Lanxi explained, "The Long Family Ancestral Land can only be entered by those who carry the Long Family bloodline, or their immediate family members, others would be eradicated by the divine power of the Long Family ancestors."
"Granny Wang, what do you mean by family members?" Chu Chen asked curiously.
Wang Lanxi explained, "That means relatives, like the husband or wife of someone with the Long Family bloodline."
"Relatives?"
Chu Xin tilted her head, thought for a moment, and asked, "Granny Wang, we are Auntie Long's adopted daughter and son, and also the Commandery Princess and Young Master favored by the Empress for Ice Beast Milk. Auntie Long said that our titles have been recognized by the Jiuzhou Dragon Vein, so we are also considered relatives of the Long Family bloodline, right?"
"Is that so?"
Wang Lanxi was surprised. She had not expected that these two children had such a close relationship with her own daughter.
Since they had been recognized by the Jiuzhou Dragon Vein, it must have been sealed with the Divine Gift Seal, which naturally carried the aura of the Divine Gift Seal.
The Divine Gift Seal and the Divine Gifted Stele are both supreme treasures; having the aura of the Divine Gift Seal means they won't be eradicated by the ancestors' divine power.
"Do you have the imperial edicts on you? Let me see them."
However, just to be safe, she still wanted to check.
Chu Xin and Chu Chen quickly took out their respective imperial edicts and handed them to Wang Lanxi.
"Not bad, indeed it is sealed with the Divine Gift Seal."
Wang Lanxi nodded inwardly.
The imperial edicts issued by the Jiuzhou Emperor are not all sealed with the Divine Gift Seal, or the Imperial Jade Seal.
Apart from the Divine Gift Seal, there is also the ordinary Emperor Seal. Usually, the Emperor Seal is used, and the Divine Gift Seal is rarely employed.
"Then let's go together."
Wang Lanxi handed back the two imperial edicts to Chu Xin and Chu Chen, instructing, "You must hold these two imperial edicts in your hands at all times so you will not be eradicated by the divine power of the Long Family ancestors. However, even though you are Xiaofei's adopted children, you do not have the Long Family bloodline, and you will not receive the divine gifts from the ancestors. Neither can I; we are only going in to protect Xiaorou and Xiaofei."
"Okay."
Chu Xin and Chu Chen nodded together. They were not interested in those divine gifts; they were just thinking about the possibility of taking away the Divine Gifted Stele.
Then the three of them carefully headed towards the entrance.
They had arrived before the Blood Demon Envoy and others, but to avoid drawing the attention of the guards from Longzhou, they planned to use the Emperor-Level Invisibility Talisman to enter stealthily.
The Invisibility Talisman was indeed useful, but it had one drawback: no energy could be used, or it would break the effects of the talisman.
Therefore, they could only choose to walk step by step.
They had only covered half the distance when the Blood Demon Envoy and others arrived.
Wang Lanxi was worried whether the Half-step Martial God, the Blood Demon Envoy, could see through the Invisibility Talisman, hence she raised the question.
If it really could be seen through by the Half-step Martial God, it would be better to forsake the Invisibility Talisman early and make other plans. If discovered in front of the Half-step Martial God, they might be attacked suddenly, and they would probably not even have time to react.
"Granny Wang, walk slower, make sure your voice is very soft, don't let them hear you," Chu Xin reminded.
"Okay!"
Wang Lanxi slowed her steps again, cautiously moving towards the entrance of the ancestral Land.
Fortunately, she had good luck all the way, making no sounds at all. She silently passed right in front of the Blood Demon Envoy and the old woman, entering into the ancestral Land.
As soon as she entered the ancestral Land, Wang Lanxi anxiously turned her head to look at Chu Xin and Chu Chen.
"Grandma Wang, what's wrong?"
Chu Xin and Chu Chen thought there was something behind them, so they looked back but saw nothing unusual, their round eyes filled with confusion.
"It's nothing, let's go."
Seeing the two kids were still lively, Wang Lanxi breathed a sigh of relief and solemnly advised, "Stay close to me, there are many prohibitions and traps in the ancestral Land. Don't wander off."
"Okay, Grandma Wang."
Chu Xin and Chu Chen each held a decree in one hand and a milk bottle in the other, sucking on Ice Beast Milk, closely following behind Wang Lanxi.
It wasn't that they were afraid of the prohibitions and traps; they were mainly afraid of getting lost.
The ancestral Land was like a maze, and within a short period of time, they were already a bit confused. Without someone leading the way, they had no chance of finding their way out.
After around an hour, Wang Lanxi finally stopped not far from the ancestral hall.
"Wow! So many people."
Chu Chen widened his eyes as he looked at everyone inside the ancestral hall, speaking excitedly, "Those villains are also there, Later I must beat their butts very hard until they are blown open."
"Smack!"
Chu Xin slapped the back of his head, glanced sideways at three directions outside the ancestral hall, and whispered, "You fool, keep it down. Those three Half-step Martial Gods are also here. Don't let them hear you."
"Oh!"
Chu Chen rubbed the back of his head with the hand holding the decree, following Chu Xin's gaze, he, indeed, sensed three strong presences.
"Three Half-step Martial Gods? Where?"
Wang Lanxi looked around and, seeing nothing unusual, asked doubtfully.
Chu Xin stretched out her pale hand, pointing in three directions outside the ancestral hall and whispered, "One over there, another here, and one more over here."
Wang Lanxi stared at those three directions again and again but still couldn't notice anything unusual.
Chu Chen tilted his little head, asking suspiciously, "Grandma Wang, you can't sense them?"
"Er!"
Wang Lanxi, facing the innocent suspicious eyes of the two kids, felt greatly ridiculed. She coughed lightly and said softly, "I sensed them, how could I possibly not sense them."
"Oh!"
Chu Xin and Chu Chen nodded together, without any doubt.
After all, if they could sense them, Grandma Wang, who was a Peak Martial Emperor, must surely be able to sense them too.
Wang Lanxi, feeling a bit guilty, shifted her gaze from the two kids and couldn't help but carefully peer at those three directions again. Still, she sensed no anomalies, and couldn't help but wonder to herself, "Is it that I'm getting old, or are these two kids too extraordinary?"
At that moment, Long Yusheng, who had been meditating, suddenly opened his eyes and spoke, "Your Majesty, it's about time, isn't it? We should activate the Divine Gifted Stele now."
Long Yutian and others also opened their eyes and simultaneously looked towards Long Yurou.
Long Yurou calmly stood up, taking out the Divine Gift Seal again, her eyes twinkling with an unusual light.
"Sister, how about giving them the Divine Gift Seal to let them activate the Divine Gifted Stele?" Long Yufei suggested.
Long Yurou secretly shook her head, "Considering their reaction, the one holding the Divine Gift Seal to activate the Divine Gifted Stele will certainly gain unexpected benefits. How could we let them have it? Nevertheless, it's up to you during the activation process."
"Sister, rest assured, I will definitely protect you," Long Yufei firmly said.
Long Yurou took a deep breath, turned toward the Divine Gifted Stele, Rule Power surged into the Divine Gift Seal, and a dazzling light burst forth from the Divine Gift Seal.
What do you think?
