Chapter 829: Chapter 63: You Are Sheng Tanglian’s Daughter

"Benefactor?"

Mo Xiaolan watched Wei Ying about to kneel before her and quickly stepped forward to support her:

"Senior Wei, why are you giving such a grand gesture?"

Wei Ying stood up and carefully looked at Mo Xiaolan’s face, showing a comforting smile:

"I knew it, the benefactor’s cultivation is sky-high, how could they truly be without descendants?"

Mo Xiaolan was puzzled: "Senior Wei, who is your benefactor?"

Wei Ying invited Mo Xiaolan to sit down, poured her a cup of wine personally, and smiled:

"This is the top-grade Immortal Brew, only a jug can be brewed every hundred years. I’ve been treasuring this jug for two hundred years, and finally waited for you today."

Mo Xiaolan raised the wine cup, instinctively smelled the fragrance, and her Nascent Soul Fifth-Layer cultivation began to tremble, on the verge of breaking through.

Mo Xiaolan was startled, but she put down the wine cup: "Senior Wei, I can’t accept this wine without earning it."

Wei Ying’s face was full of love and joy as she looked at her:

"You look just like the benefactor, and your temperament is no different either! Unfortunately..."

Wei Ying sighed: "The benefactor was invincible, but too sentimental and righteous, meeting the wrong people, alas!"

Wei Ying’s eyes reddened slightly, wiping the corners, she said to Mo Xiaolan:

"You must have many questions, I will tell you slowly."

She paused, her gaze was deep, and her expression somewhat dazed:

"Five hundred years ago, my husband and I had just married, our cultivation was only Golden Core, yet we arrogantly ventured into the Northern Wilderness to hunt a Sixth Grade Flood Dragon Beast."

"The two of us were no match, about to die at the hands of the Flood Dragon Beast, when the benefactor appeared, raising a hand to slay the creature."

"To this day, I still remember the benefactor’s heroic figure, exceedingly beautiful."

Wei Ying sighed with a smile in her eyes:

"The benefactor not only saved my husband’s and my lives but also gave us the Demon Core of the Flood Dragon Beast, and taught us array techniques and advanced cultivation techniques."

"The Spirit Mirror Array outside the Immortal Brew Tower was taught by the benefactor in the past."

"Because of the benefactor’s guidance, years later, when my husband and I emerged from the Northern Wilderness, we had reached the Nascent Soul Realm."

"Golden Core when arriving, Nascent Soul when leaving, truly akin to a dream."

"We wanted to become disciples of the benefactor, serving by her side, but she refused, saying she disliked burdens and only wished to roam freely."

"Before she left, the benefactor gave me a piece of Jade to assist us in cultivation, the very piece you hold in your hand."

Upon hearing Wei Ying’s words, Mo Xiaolan looked down at the Jade in her hand, observing the once indistinct flowers that had become clear.

Mo Xiaolan suddenly widened her eyes:

"Tanglian, Cyan Lotus?"

Wei Ying smiled and said: "Yes, the benefactor’s name is... Sheng Tanglian."

Mo Xiaolan looked incredulously at Wei Ying: "The one who saved you was Senior Sheng Tanglian?"

Wei Ying shook her head: "You mustn’t refer to her as senior, Orchid Fairy, you should call her mother."

Mo Xiaolan was stunned, her entire being somewhat dazed.

"Sheng Tanglian... is my mother?"

She had speculated her background, but Sheng Tanglian had lived five hundred years ago, and she was only twenty years old, how could she be Sheng Tanglian’s daughter?

Wei Ying softly said: "I know you have many questions, listen to me."

"Back then, the benefactor departed gracefully, and my husband and I came to the base of Immortal Flying Peak, seeking to cultivate through its Spiritual Energy and eventually ascend."

"Two hundred years passed in a flash, Jianxian City had been built under Immortal Flying Peak, and I was pregnant."

"One day, we heard the benefactor had fallen, the Cyan Lotus Sect was branded as the Demon Sect, and its remnants fled to the South Demon."

"I was heartbroken, wanting to go to Zhenyang Mountain to seek justice for the benefactor but was stopped by my husband, who said I was already pregnant, we had built the Immortal Brew Tower under Immortal Flying Peak, and had established a family and legacy."

"Fear crept into my heart, making me ungrateful, afraid to seek justice for the benefactor!"

Wei Ying’s eyes reddened, fists clenched, face full of shame, she hesitated, then continued:

"Later, I gave birth to my first daughter, named Niansheng in remembrance of the benefactor."

"My husband was intent on ascension, and as I was about to give birth to our second daughter, he finally reached Divinity Transformation."

"However, the instant my husband entered Divinity Transformation, a terrifying force seized his soul and Spiritual Energy."

"I discovered that this force came from..."

Wei Ying’s face showed fear, she whispered:

"Immortal Flying Peak!"

Mo Xiaolan was shocked, she had heard from Xia Qinglian that entering Divinity Transformation would bring great terror, hence Xia Qinglian, Su Hongling, and Ye Xiyue were only Half-Step Divinity Transformation, afraid to breakthrough.

No one had imagined that Wei Ying’s husband was a victim three hundred years ago.

Even more unimaginable, the hidden hand was from Immortal Flying Peak?!

How many victims have there been over these five hundred years?

Is this mysterious terrifying force controlled by Immortal Flying Peak, or does it have another origin?

Wei Ying took a deep breath and continued:

"My husband died unjustly, but I was unwilling to give up, wanting to recover his soul, but I was about to give birth, thus I focused on resting, soon giving birth to my second daughter, named... Luo Xiaohong."

Mo Xiaolan was shocked: "Xiaohong is your daughter? No wonder she resembles Miss Niansheng so much, but why is Xiaohong at the Immortal Flying Pavilion? And Xiaohong said she’s only ten years old, why is that?"

Wei Ying sighed: "When Xiaohong was born, unusual phenomena occurred, the earth shook and mountains swayed, revealing she was a born Tao Spirit Body."

"At this time, an old man came from Immortal Flying Peak, claiming to be Yu Weixian, he said he could help retrieve my husband, but the condition was to hand Xiaohong to him."

"I refused, but was not a match for Yu Weixian, thus had to let him take Xiaohong."

"I comforted myself, thinking there was at least hope to save my husband, but only realized today how foolish and laughable I was."

"Yu Weixian took Xiaohong to Immortal Flying Peak, placing her in a special array to nurture the entire Immortal Flying Peak with her Innate Spiritual Power."

"Over two hundred years, Immortal Flying Peak transformed into a gigantic Immortal Sword, its blade piercing the skies."

"I hypothesized... this giant sword is used to connect Hongzhou Continent to the Upper Realm!"

Wei Ying’s words left Mo Xiaolan dumbfounded: "Upper Realm?"

Cultivators all pursued ascension, where did those who ascended go?

Ancient texts recorded that ascended ones went to the Upper Realm, also called the Immortal Realm.

It’s said the Upper Realm’s Spiritual Energy is a thousand times that of Hongzhou Continent, resources are inexhaustible, and cultivators no longer need to fight over resources.

Ascended cultivators in the Upper Realm had endless lifespans, never aging.

Thus, everyone yearned for ascension, entering the Upper Realm to become true immortals.

Yet now someone has built a channel connecting to the Upper Realm.

Mo Xiaolan was astonished: "Could Yu Weixian want to open this path between Hongzhou and the Upper Realm, enabling everyone to ascend?"
