50: Chapter 50 The child's mother is a member of the Dark Moon Demon Clan

Jiang Ruoxi continued pouring wine without being stingy at all.

It was not easy for them to reunite with their father.

And they had met such an interesting older brother, so naturally, they had to drink to their heart's content.

Thus, the father and his two daughters drank until late at night.

...

At this moment,

in the western region of the Cangyuan Realm,

within the Heavenly Demon Realm hidden in an underground folded space,

on a floating mountain of the Dark Moon Demon Race,

Yun Shuyue, dressed in a moonlight skirt with peerless grace, sat upright inside a pavilion overlooking an abyss.

Her beautiful eyes carried a hint of melancholy as she looked at a crimson red moon hanging in the firmament ahead.

A scroll was strikingly unfurled on the table.

On the scroll was a handsome, ethereal young man with flowing long hair.

If Jiang Nianyang were here, he would discover that this young man looked almost identical to Uncle Wushang.

He was merely a few years younger.

This woman dressed in the moonlight skirt was precisely Jiang Nianyang's mother, the princess of the Dark Moon Demon Race within the Heavenly Demon Realm.

"Our son Yun Nianyang has run away from home for two days."

"He said he went to look for the Great Emperor's Opportunity, but I know he actually missed his father..."

"It's just that the little fellow is stubborn and refuses to admit it. If you knew his mother is from the Demon Race... would you accept him? If you don't accept him, how would he, at such a young age, manage to survive on his own? Pity my son... so young, yet he has to bear so much."

Yun Shuyue withdrew her gaze, glanced at the scroll on the table, and extended her jade hand to gently caress the handsome face of the man in the painting.

She murmured in a low voice, her brows filled with worry and her eyes carrying a hint of melancholy.

When looking at the painting of Xie Wushang, a trace of gentleness appeared once more.

She still clearly remembered when she was poisoned and almost had her body pierced by the branches of that Disaster King-grade 'Evil Spirit Tree'.

A man descended from the heavens.

The Qi of Yin and Yang on his body acted like blades, severing the Evil Spirit's branches—which were as tough as Saint weapons—and allowing her to escape unscathed.

"Being so young yet able to easily suppress an 'Evil Spirit' close to the Saint King level, I suppose even a Great Emperor's descendant would be no better than this."

"And the talent of our children is even rarer to find in a century."

Yun Shuyue murmured, a sweet smile appearing at the corners of her mouth.

"Pity that you are from the Human Race and I am from the Demon Race... The two races have been sworn enemies since ancient times."

Right at this moment, ripples stirred by the edge of the pavilion, and a woman dressed in palace attire appeared.

This woman was precisely Yun Shuyue's maid, Yun Yulan.

Yun Yulan glanced at Yun Shuyue and the portrait on the table, sighing inwardly, "The Princess is thinking of the child's father again."

Afterwards, she stepped forward and bowed respectfully, "Princess, news about Nianyang has been transmitted from the Human Race."

"There is news about my son!" Yun Shuyue's heart leapt with joy as she immediately stood up and swept her jade hand, storing the scroll into her Storage Pouch.

She looked toward Yun Yulan.

Yun Yulan said, "Our people witnessed the Young Lord enter the Jiang Clan..."

"The Jiang Clan... As expected, he had long known his father's origins," Yun Shuyue murmured.

"Not only that, but the Young Lord also underwent the Awakening of the Sun Divine Body within the Jiang Clan," Yun Yulan stated.

"The Sun Divine Body... That's wonderful! My son has awakened the Sun Divine Body. In this way, even if the Jiang Clan learns of his Demon Race identity, they probably won't make things difficult for him." Yun Shuyue was overjoyed.

"Indeed! The Sun Divine Body possesses the bearing of a Great Emperor. Even though the Jiang Clan is a Celestial Emperor Family, they would never neglect the Young Lord."

Yun Yulan also said with a face full of joy.

"That's right! Three tens of thousands of years ago, two Great Emperors of the Jiang Clan died in battle... Right now is a time when they are in urgent need of talent, so my son will likely be cultivated with key focus." Yun Shuyue murmured. She had long known that the Sun Bloodline was hidden within her children's bodies, which was how she deduced the identity of the child's father.

She also had some understanding regarding matters of the Jiang Clan.

"There is another piece of good news... Would the Princess like to hear it?" Yun Yulan gave a playful smile.

"What! News?" Yun Shuyue raised her gaze and said, "You're actually keeping me in suspense?"

"Our people saw the child's father," Yun Yulan said.

"The child's father..." Hearing this, Yun Shuyue's heart skipped a beat, and she asked, "How... how is he right now?"

"His name is Xie Wushang, and he is the son of the Jiang Clan's legendary figure, Jiang Tianxing. When he entered the Jiang Clan, his Dantian was shattered... Yet tested together with the Young Lord, he underwent the Awakening of the Sun Divine Body... To this day, the Young Lord still does not know that Xie Wushang is his father," Yun Yulan stated.

"Xie Wushang..."

"The son of Jiang Tianxing..."

"His Dantian was crippled... What is going on? Back then, when he was so young, he could effortlessly suppress an Evil Spirit close to the Saint King level!"

Yun Shuyue suddenly stood up, looking toward the Void Realm ahead with a face full of worry.

"No one knows about this matter," Yun Yulan said.

"The Jiang Clan is an immortal imperial clan, so they should have Saint medicines to help him recover his Dantian." After a brief loss of composure, Yun Shuyue gradually regained her calm. "It's just that back in the past, Jiang Tianxing did not have a good time in the Jiang Clan. Will Wushang and Nianyang face unfair treatment?"

Remembering Jiang Tianxing, a past event of the Jiang Clan surfaced in her mind, causing Yun Shuyue to harbor quite a bit of worry.

"Jiang Yaoyang, the grandson of the Jiang Clan's Holy Lord, has been eroded by Evil Spirit Qi... The Holy Lord's wife is currently seeking a method to cure him," Yun Yulan said. "I'm afraid she will become desperate and repeat what happened back then."

"Repeat what happened back then." Yun Shuyue's gaze turned fierce.

"Back then, when Jiang Tianxing was brought into the Jiang Clan, little did anyone expect that after stepping into the eighth realm, people sent by the Holy Lord's wife, Wang Zhiyin, would seize his Emperor Bone. Wang Zhiyin's son, Jiang Jingyang, forged his quasi-emperor Foundation with it," Yun Yulan said. "Now the Young Lord possesses a Divine Body. There is no guarantee that she won't be tempted."

She wore a worried look.

At this moment, a seven-year-old little girl walked over.

This was precisely Yun Shuyue's daughter, Yun Nianxi, who was a twin with Jiang Nianyang.

"Mother, are we going to help Father and Older Brother?" Yun Nianxi blinked her gem-like eyes and asked while looking up.

"Xier, don't be anxious... Your brother is no simple person. If ordinary people dare to target him, they are courting death, let alone the fact that your father is also no ordinary figure..." Yun Shuyue squatted down, patted her daughter's head, and said with an indulgent expression.

"Older Brother is indeed not simple, and he wields an Emperor weapon, but is Father really that amazing?" Yun Nianxi blinked, speaking with an expectant look.

"That is naturally the case... Back then, if it weren't for your father, your mother would have already perished," Yun Shuyue said.

"Furthermore, your grandfather, Jiang Tianxing, is also a legendary figure who stepped into the Quasi-Emperor Realm at a very young age."

"He is the number one person in our Cangyuan Realm for a thousand years. Naturally, your father is extraordinary."

"Mm-hm, since Father and Grandfather are so amazing, Nianxi wants to meet them so badly!" Yun Nianxi blinked her gem-like eyes, deeply longing to go out and see her father, but Mother didn't allow it, and she didn't want to sneak out and make Mother worry.

"We are ultimately from the Demon Race. If we rush out rashly and our identities are exposed, not only will we be unable to help your father, but we will also implicate him."

Yun Shuyue said. She glanced at her daughter, took her hand, and then looked toward the distant Dark Moon, letting out a long, lingering sigh.

Over the years, she had consistently refrained from telling her son what Xie Wushang looked like precisely because she did not want him to rashly go to the Human Race.

Deep-seated grievances had long existed between the Human Race and the Demon Race; once their identities were exposed, it would definitely cause a massive uproar.

In that way, those with ulterior motives would have even more excuses to deal with Xie Wushang and his son.

"The Demon Race..." Yun Nianxi pressed her lips together, her nimble eyes growing misty with a trace of grievance in her heart.

Ever since she was young, she had known that she possessed both Human Race and Demon Race Bloodlines within her body.

If she wanted to go look for her father, she had to work hard to Cultivate and strive to become a Great Emperor.

Only then could she come and go as she pleased.
