“Master, that’s because I’ve been assisting you,” Li Su blinked and said, keeping it vague and providing the sect leader with reasonable room for imagination. “You’ve been helping me?” The sect leader grew even more puzzled, her gaze shifting around Li Su. “Li Su, my aunt said you are highly likely to be a reincarnation of an immortal. Could it be true?” Then, she spoke again, “Reincarnation of an immortal?” This was the first time Li Su had heard someone mention that term.
“Yes, the reincarnation of an immortal has occurred many times in the past. The family’s library has books that document these cases, and when I was a child, I used to love reading those books. The most recent one was ten thousand years ago,” the sect leader explained. “Oh? Master, I’d love to hear more,” Li Su became interested.
“Around ten thousand years ago, the Immortal Alliance’s sacred artifacts detected changes in the celestial patterns, indicating that an immortal might be reincarnated in the Void Realm. At that time, many powerful figures from various sacred sites gathered and prepared for the event in the Void Realm. However, after twelve years, they had found nothing and left.” “Only twelve years of searching?” Li Su inquired further, and the sect leader nodded, saying, “That immortal’s reincarnation attempt failed. He couldn’t awaken his memories before the age of 12, which was essentially equivalent to never being able to awaken them. Once he awakens his memories, it will trigger the celestial patterns once again, allowing the Immortal Alliance to monitor and find him.”
“Ten thousand years ago, there was another failed reincarnation of an immortal!” The reincarnation of an immortal is a highly risky endeavor. “The family’s books record a total of ten instances, and there may be more that our ancestors couldn’t document. Out of these ten cases, only two were successful reincarnations. One of those successful cases gave rise to a sacred site, which is the Violet Gold Sacred Realm,” the sect leader continued. “Oh?” Li Su was intrigued.
Li Su became more interested. Is there a connection between the Purple Gold Holy Realm and the reincarnation of an immortal? “Ten thousand years ago, the Purple Gold Holy Realm was just a first-tier immortal sect. It transformed into a sacred realm because it greatly benefited from protecting the reincarnating immortal,” the sect leader explained. Now Li Su understood.
The sect leader seemed to have understood that Li Su was most likely not a reincarnation of an immortal, or else he would have known about these things. However, she couldn’t be certain if Li Su was deliberately asking in this manner, so she chose not to inquire further. Li Su had his own secrets, and in her mind, he had become more mysterious.
“Master, does the Purple Gold Holy Realm still have any connection with immortals?” Li Su asked, and the sect leader shook her head, “The boundary between immortals and mortals is not that easy to bridge, but I’m not particularly clear on this matter.” Li Su looked at her, “My aunt mentioned that a prominent figure from the Purple Gold Holy Realm wanted to take you as a disciple. How high is their status within the Purple Gold Holy Realm?” Li Su’s words triggered the sect leader’s memories.
“That would be Senior Yunyan. She is a very kind person, and her status within the Purple Gold Holy Realm is quite high. However, there are still higher-ranking figures in the realm, and it seems that the son she gave birth to has caught the attention of someone with an even higher status.” The sect leader continued, and Li Su responded with a simple “Oh.” The sect leader’s knowledge of the Purple Gold Holy Realm was also limited. Her aunt’s knowledge was similarly restricted. Even though the Eastern family had deep ties with the Purple Gold Holy Realm, the inner workings of a sacred realm were ultimately beyond the reach of outsiders. Moreover, at that time, the sect leader was still young, and her aunt was also in her prime. Li Su didn’t press further.
“Is this the Demonic Cloud Realm?”
“Yes.”
“Let’s go back, Li Su.”
“Sure.”
The two of them began their journey back. After her successful breakthrough into the Refinement Void stage, the sect leader’s mood had improved considerably. She stood at the bow of the flying boat, gazing into the distance, lost in her thoughts. The sunlight cast a gentle radiance on her, enhancing her grace and beauty. The sect leader, in this light, exuded a delicate and lovely feminine charm. Li Su’s gaze rested on her, and his mood also improved.
The flying boat sped towards the northern region at an incredible pace. The sun began to dip in the west. As night fell, the flying boat continued its journey into the night. The sect leader, who had been standing at the bow of the boat, was now cloaked in moonlight. Her eyes, brighter than the moon itself, gazed down at the starry sea below. At that moment, the sect leader’s body froze. It was because Li Su had approached her from behind, and he was a bit too close. “Li Su...” The sect leader had an inkling of what was about to happen. “Master, it’s chilly outside. Let’s go inside,” Li Su gently embraced her. “It’s chilly outside...” This excuse was quite an understatement.
The sect leader’s delicate body trembled slightly. Then, Li Su held her and they went inside. In an instant, the night became exceptionally enchanting.
