Chapter 425

Chapter 425: Following a mysterious beautiful lady

Special Notice

Please thank Kurisu for his time with us . But he has stated it was in his interest to leave . Let us wish him well . The novel he translated was On the Way Home I Got a Bride and Twin Daughters, Who Were Dragons .

Now, for those who are saddened over this matter, this all started when someone emailed trying to Translate the novel on his own website .

It is the same stupid stuff so many people are pulling, trying to tear Creative Novels down . (Like one guy asked to post 20 chapters of each of all of our novels on their site . . . like . . . am I supposed to respond to that?) .

Anyways, Kurisu was doing this for fun . As far as I can tell, he is thinking that it would not do well to compete with whoever it is . Bc at the end of the day, people will do whatever they want . We have seen it .

These emails and constant messages and attacks are from those that just want to tear us down . Otherwise, they wouldn't ask us such stupid and ignorant questions with their bad intentions .

All that we can do at Creative Novels is stick together . The Creators, the readers, the whole community . And try to ride this storm as we assail further .

Mea Empress was flabbergasted . Before she had the time to react, she felt as though her chest was freezing . That layer of thick gauze was already torn away by Long Yi, leaving only a piece of transparent green underwear .

Long Yi’s body trembled and his eyes widened . Instead of an eager expression on his face, Long Yi had a face full of surprise .

Mea Empress eventually came back to her senses and she noticed Long Yi’s shocked expression . She could see that he had a sad expression on his face when he looked at her . Picking up the pink gown, she quietly wrapped it over herself .

“How did this happen?” Long Yi suppressed his shock and asked in a low voice . He was simply unable to imagine Mea Empress, this kind of highest grade fine-jade like woman would have such an ugly appearance underneath . Her skin was a mixture of green and blank, which made her look extremely sick .

Mea Empress’ mouth slightly twitched and she sighed softly, “I knew that this would happen one day . I never had the bloodline of the silver fox running through my veins, however, I still forcibly cultivated the Vanishing Magic and the Thousand Extreme Illusions . This is my punishment . ”

“Is there a way to cure it?” Long Yi asked .

Shaking her head, Mea Empress slowly explained, “It’s too late to save me now . Heaven was already kind enough to allow me to live for such a long time . At first, I thought that I wouldn’t be alive to see Bertha return to me . I had even prepared my will in case Bertha fails to return before I leave this world . To my surprise, I was able to see both you and Bertha before my I die . I am already perfectly content . ”

Grabbing Mea Empress’ little hand, Long Yi injected his spirit power and internal energy into her . During his examination, he discovered that the meridians in her entire body and five of the major organs in her body had begun to fail . Upon further examination, he found out that they were actually withering . It was already beyond any human’s capability to save her .

“It’s okay, you don’t need to feel sad for me . Your agreement to help our Fox Clan reach a high position among the beast-men clans is enough for me to pass away without any regrets . ” Mea Empress shook off Long Yi’s hand and she said with a thin smile on her face . She was completely indifferent when she spoke about dying . It was as though she had already seen through life and death .

Sitting on the sofa, Long Yi didn’t say anything . He rubbed his chin and he appeared as though he was deep in thought .

……………… .

As the night deepened, Long Yi lied on a bed of grass surrounded by Wushuang, Nalan Ruyue, Long Ling’er, and Ximen Wuhen . They were enjoying themselves in a remote place in the Mea Holy Magic Academy and there was no one around to bother them .

“My husband, wasn’t our plan to leave today? Why have you decided to stay?” Nalan Ruyue asked while massaging Long Yi’s leg .

“Of course it is for big sister Shui Ruoyan . Am I right, you bad fellow?” Long Ling’er said with a knowing smirk on her face .

“You’re getting smarter . Didn’t you say that that girl is acting mysteriously? If I don’t know what Ruoyan is up to, I won’t be able to leave with a peaceful mind . ” Long Yi grinned as he confirmed her words .

“Oh, and here I am thinking about why second brother didn’t look for her in the daytime . So you were indeed trying to find out what big sister Shui Ruoyan is up to . Why are you still here? Shouldn’t you be following her?” Ximen Wuhen asked curiously .

“Why would I track her myself? Such labor intensive work should be left to the subordinates . Naturally, someone will help me to track her . All of you don’t have to worry . ” Long Yi smiled and he quickly explained to the girls .

“Bad fellow, aren’t you worried about big sister Shui Ruoyan?” Long Ling’er frowned .

“Of course I am worried about her . However, the thing I am worried about isn’t her having a lover’s rendezvous behind my back . I’m more worried for her safety . ” Long Yi looked up into the starry skies and he felt as though there was something wrong . He was suspicious that everything wasn’t as simple as it seemed .

All of a sudden, magnificent fireworks lit up the sky . It formed a beautiful pattern in the sky . For everyone else, this might be ordinary magic fireworks . However, it had a completely different meaning for Long Yi .

“I will go and take a look . You should all stay here and continue with whatever you were doing . ” Long Yi turned around and rushed in a hurry the moment he saw the fireworks .

Although the four women were unwilling to see Long Yi go, they knew that it was useless for them to persuade Long Yi to stay . Looking at the serious expression on his face, they knew that it was impossible to change his mind .

Long Yi instantly disappeared into the night as he left behind a few afterimages . After few seconds, he quietly appeared outside the grove in the eastern suburbs of Mea Principality .

There was a layer of strong barrier outside this place . Although it was hidden, Long Yi could sense a trace of dark aura surrounding this place .

“Why is there so much dark aura here? Are the people of the Dark Church here as well? This is strange . Why would Shui Ruoyan come into contact with people from the Dark Church?” Long Yi frowned as he muttered to himself .

He couldn’t break this barrier as it would notify the caster of his presence . Although he wasn’t afraid of the people who casted the barrier, he didn’t have any intentions to let them know about his arrival . He only wanted to find out what Shui Ruoyan was up to, and who she was meeting with .

Long Yi used his internal energy of AoTainJue to wrap his entire body up . He used his spirit power to make a fine net in order to contain his aura . Taking two steps forwards, Long Yi touched the barrier . Seeing as there was no fluctuation, Long Yi sighed in relief .

Before long, Long Yi passed through the barrier and entered the grove . The barrier instantly restored itself to its original state .

Inside the woods, there was no other mechanism to detect his presence . Long Yi was like a fish in water as he advanced towards the center of the grove . Using the cover from the darkness, Long Yi quickly arrived at his destination .

“Mother, I have already cultivated the first stage of the Ninth Heaven Dark Magic . ” Long Yi was able to hear Shui Ruoyan’s voice in the darkness .

Long Yi was surprised . Ninth Heaven Dark Magic was the magic belonging to the Dark Church . Only the direct descendants of the Dark Pope could learn this magic . Long Yi only knew about this magic because of Feng Ling . He concealed his aura and fully integrated into the darkness . He saw two graceful figures at the center of this grove . One of them was Shui Ruoyan and the other was a blue-eyed beautiful lady . This beautiful lady was looking at Shui Ruoyan with love in her eyes, but Long Yi could feel a kind of bone-chilling coldness coming from her .

Mother? Long Yi was surprised . He knew a little about Shui Ruoyan’s background, but he never imagined that her mother was such a dangerous woman . From the Ninth Heaven Dark Magic she was teaching Shui Ruoyan, he was sure that she was from the Dark Church . Of course, she definitely had a high status in the Dark Church in order to get her hands on the Ninth Heaven Dark Magic . Suddenly, a thought appeared in Long Yi’s heart . Feng Ling also had blue eyes and she vaguely resembled this beautiful lady . Could it be that this beautiful lady was also Feng Ling’s mother? However, Shui Ruoyan was addressing this beautiful lady as her mother . Could it be that Feng Ling and Shui Ruoyan were sisters? Long Yi thought of this possibility and an indescribable feeling appeared in his heart . He began to understand the reason behind Shui Linglong’s behavior . Thinking about how Shui Linglong tried to separate her son from this beautiful woman, he started drawing some conclusions .

“Very good, Ruoyan, your progress is even faster than your father’s . ” The beautiful lady caressed Shui Ruoyan’s beautiful face .

“Mother, when can I see my father?” Shui Ruoyan asked . Ever since the time she grew up in Shui Linglong’s care, she was deprived of affectionate love . As a result Shui Ruoyan didn’t distance herself from her mother when she first appeared before her . This was her greatest desire from her childhood .

The beautiful lady sighed softly and said, “In these last few years, your grandmother never forgave your father and me . Your father is always thinking about your grandmother, but he had sworn that he wouldn’t see her unless she forgives us . ”

“Why would mother appear before me now?” Shui Ruoyan became silent for a while before asking .

“The oath included me too, but mother was no longer able to bear the pain of separation with you . I wanted to see my flesh and blood no matter what, so even if the oath came through and I die, I wouldn’t regret anything . ” The beautiful lady said and she couldn’t help but break down .

“Mother!” When Shui Ruoyan heard about her mother’s sacrifice, she affectionately hugged her .

————

The mother and daughter hugged each other . The beautiful lady gently patted Shui Ruyan’s back and her sad expression slowly turned into a complicated one . Shui Ruoyan wasn’t able to see this change, but Long Yi saw everything clearly .

What does this woman want to do? Long Yi’s eyes sharpened when he thought of various possibilities .

“Ruoyan, your mother has to return now . You must work hard in your cultivation . Also, you can’t forget our agreement . You must not tell anyone about this, not a single soul . Do you understand?” After a good while, the beautiful lady retracted her complicated gaze . She whispered into Shui Ruoyan’s ear as she got ready to leave .

“I understand . However, can’t you stay for a few more days?” The tone of Shui Ruoyan showed her dependence and reluctance to see her mother leave .

“Mother wants to stay as well, but I can’t delay any longer . Mother must return to the church today . ” The beautiful lady sighed softly and pushed Shui Ruoyan away .

Holding onto Shui Ruoyan’s face, she stared into Shui Ruoyan’s eyes .

Shui Ruoyan nodded her head and remained silent . Tears flowed down her cheeks as she knew that her mother was going to leave her again .

“Obedient child, don’t be sad . As long as you follow mother’s teachings closely, our family would be able to reunite soon . You’ll be able to see your father and younger sister soon . ” The beautiful lady wiped off Shui Ruoyan’s tears and she quietly consoled her .

“Young sister? How is my younger sister now?” Shui Ruoyan asked . She was very happy in her heart . She was happy as she found out that she had a younger sister . She was unexpectedly a big sister! This gave her a pleasant surprise .

“She is doing very well . She makes so much noise about meeting her big sister, and she would be very excited to meet you . You must not disappoint mother, do you understand?” The beautiful lady said .

Nodding her head, Shui Ruoyan strengthened her resolve to get stronger .

“Okay, it is already late . Mother should leave now . Take good care of yourself . ” The beautiful lady hugged Shui Ruoyan again as she patted her back . As she released her grip on Shui Ruoyan, she took a deep breath and stared hard at Shui Ruoyan . With a single wave of her little hand, the barrier she erected disappeared into the darkness together with her .

“Mother……” Shui Ruoyan cried and took two steps forward with tearful eyes .

Long Yi turned around and disappeared from his location . He followed her dark aura and chased after the beautiful woman .

After chasing the dark aura for ten minutes, he could see that the figure in the distance .

“Beauty, why are you running away so urgently? How about you stop and accompany this young master for a drink?” Long Yi emitted his powerful spirit power to suppress the surrounding area . Lightning magic element spirits formed a silverish purple barrier around the beautiful lady and Long Yi stared straight at her .
