Chapter 809: Chapter 14: Lotus Rhizome Incarnation, Lotus Fairy

Half an hour later, in Yun Xiao’s small courtyard.

Han Zhi cautiously hid behind Yun Xiao, craning her head to observe Wudi on the opposite side.

From the other party’s bewildered and curious gaze, Wudi discerned that she was indeed an Innate God yet to be born.

"A Primordial Spirit cultivated even before formal birth..."

"Innate Gods are indeed a privileged and enviable group!"

Thanks to Yun Xiao’s protection, Han Zhi’s not yet fully formed Primordial Spirit was unafraid of sunlight, able to roam freely.

"Privileged indeed, but doesn’t that also attract people like you with ulterior motives?"

Watching Yun Xiao leisurely sipping tea, Wudi felt utterly embarrassed with no place to hide.

"I’m not lying, I genuinely didn’t know beforehand that this Elixir of Immortality had transformed into an Innate God."

"I won’t deny the Enlightened Six Witches previously used unscrupulous means for the Elixir of Immortality, but we weren’t arrogant enough to challenge the Tao Ancestor’s established rules."

Regardless of whether Yun Xiao believed or not, Wudi continued to explain.

"Since the Queen Mother of the Jasper Pool succeeded in her spiritual path, we’ve already cultivated our own Elixir of Immortality."

"Although ours is not yet complete and has many flaws, it’s an Elixir that belongs solely to us."

Upon hearing this, Yun Xiao indifferently countered.

"If that’s the case, then why are you still searching for a new Elixir of Immortality?"

Though having never left Penglai Island, Yun Xiao was deeply aware of human greed.

Having something doesn’t mean one won’t continue to plunder; it’s human nature.

"Because we want to further perfect our Elixir of Immortality, we need more reference models."

With sincere tones and earnest eyes, Wudi spoke openly to Yun Xiao.

"You might not believe it, but our six siblings have always been monitoring the whereabouts of that Queen Mother of the Jasper Pool, trying to form a connection with her."

"Unfortunately, most of the time the Queen Mother prefers hiding in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, unwilling to venture out."

With a slight raising of an eyebrow, Yun Xiao curiously asked.

"Why don’t you go to the Hundred Lands Mountain Range then?"

"As far as I know, as long as you apply through official channels, the Hundred Lands Mountain Range almost never rejects any outsiders who wish to enter it, right?"

Upon these words, Wudi awkwardly chuckled once more.

"Well, the Enlightened Six Witches have some history with the Tao Ancestor..."

"My eldest brother was even imprisoned by the Tao Ancestor for a while, so... um, anyway, my brother believes the Hundred Lands Mountain Range likely won’t welcome us."

Nodding in understanding, Yun Xiao empathized with the Enlightened Six Witches’ concerns.

Even though the Tao Ancestor might not care about these petty matters.

But amongst the mountain people, there isn’t a shortage of extremists.

If they knew the Enlightened Six Witches planned to enter the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, and furthermore wanted to find the Queen Mother, their first thought likely would be to grind these folks down to dust.

"So you came to Longbo Kingdom as soon as you learned about the Queen Mother’s appearance?"

Listening to Yun Xiao’s inquiry, Wudi suddenly raised his head, revealing a mysterious smile.

"What we know... perhaps is far more than you imagine."

...........................

What Wudi stated was true; what the Enlightened Six Witches knew was indeed much more than Yun Xiao had imagined.

From Yun Xiao’s perspective, perhaps due to some serendipitous chance, the Enlightened Six Witches learned the Queen Mother once visited Profound Garden Island and left behind remnants of the Elixir of Immortality.

After all, they weren’t even aware of the fact that "the Seven-colored Lotus Flower is a corporeal divine medicine and not an Elixir of Immortality."

Back then, Li Boyang attempted unsuccessfully to resurrect the pure Yang Primordial Spirit.

The remnants of the Seven-colored Lotus Flower were opportunistically collected by Luo Qiao.

Thus, upon accidentally discovering the existence of these remnants, Yun Xiao proactively acquired them from Luo Qiao and has since meticulously nurtured them.

This is why the Seven-colored Lotus Flower, which should have disappeared, now appears in Yun Xiao’s garden.

Regrettably, owing to the severe deficiency of the original Seven-colored Lotus Flower, combined with Yun Xiao’s cultivation skills not being particularly adept.

The cultivation process of the Seven-colored Lotus Flower caused quite an uproar, attracting numerous covetous individuals, including even Pathfinders traversing through time and space.

Eventually, it was Luo Qiao who stepped in and repelled each of the assailants, thereby calming the disturbance.

Of course, this was also related to those Pathfinders discerned the essence of the Seven-colored Lotus Flower.

The Seven-colored Lotus Flowers sprouting anew from Yun Xiao’s lotus pond had little connection to the initial corporeal divine medicine.

Even if those Pathfinders obtained the Seven-colored Lotus Flowers, they could not use them to reconstruct their physical form and reappear in this era.

Given these overarching projections, for Yun Xiao the Enlightened Six Witches are regarded just like those speculators.

If it weren’t for Wudi’s earnest fulfillment of punishment after being caught by Yun Xiao last time.

Yun Xiao wouldn’t have bothered speaking to him much this time, let alone proactively taking him to the lotus pond, attempting to quell his "theft of Seven-colored Lotus Flowers" ambition.

However, Wudi’s subsequent words utterly shattered Yun Xiao’s previous perceptions.

Even inducing a sensation that she might have unwittingly stepped into a grand-scale event without realizing it.

"What we know... perhaps is far more than you imagine."

Taking a deep breath, Wudi picked up the cup of tea prepared for himself and eagerly drank it all.

"The times the Queen Mother has visited this Longbo Kingdom are far more frequent than you know..."

"Moreover, the fact that the Seven-colored Lotus Flower you planted can cultivate Innate Gods has little to do with whether it is an Elixir of Immortality."

Saying this, Wudi glanced again at Han Zhi, a glimmer of greed and helplessness flashing in his eyes.

"Your name is Han Zhi, correct?"

"Do you know, you truly belong to the Tao Ancestor."

Observing Yun Xiao’s eyes widened with disbelief and Han Zhi’s face of confusion, Wudi finally laughed heartily, feeling he had gained a measure of victory.

"Haha, when I discovered this matter initially, I was as shocked as you are."

"Allow me to divulge some secrets you aren’t aware of!"

"Not only is the Seven-colored Lotus Flower left by the Tao Ancestor, but it almost became the Tao Ancestor’s embodiment."

"In other words, had luck not been against it, its true identity would be far more than just an Innate God, it would be the genuine immortal incarnation of a lotus root."

Pointing at the bewildered Han Zhi, Wudi’s smile grew even brighter.

"I suppose even the Tao Ancestor didn’t anticipate that what he left behind, hardly qualifying as ’remnants,’ would eventually be cultivated by you into a Lotus Fairy."

Turning helplessly towards Han Zhi behind her, Yun Xiao silently opened her mouth and asked.

"Why tell us these things?"

Displaying empty hands directly, Wudi answered in an innocent tone.

"Because you’re willing to open your lotus pond to me, I felt you should know these things."
