God General Xuan Yuan was the number one general of the Nine Heavens Heavenly Gates and one of the Grand Emperor's confidants. He didn't interact much with Mo Rongzhan, so he was very confused when he learned that Mo Rongzhan wanted to see him. He came to see Mo Rongzhan, but he was asked a question he thought no one would ask.
"Do you have a daughter in the human continent?" Mo Rongzhan asked.
"Young Emperor, what do you mean?" God General Xuan Yuan was stunned. He was shocked and didn't understand why Mo Rongzhan would say such a thing.
"I saw a girl in the human continent with a birthmark of the divine race on her shoulder. I checked, and in the past hundred years, you were the only one allowed to go to the human continent by the Grand Emperor, so I wanted to ask if you have a daughter in the human continent."
God General Xuan Yuan denied it. "Impossible! How could I have a daughter … "
Before he could finish, he suddenly remembered that he had met a girl in the human continent. Could it be … that he had a daughter that night?
"God General Xuan Yuan knows best," Mo Rongzhan said plainly. A mirror appeared in front of him, showing Xiaoyao's appearance.
"This girl …" God General Xuan Yuan was stunned. He felt that the girl was very familiar, and upon closer inspection, she looked very much like the girl he had met in the human continent. After so many years, had she really given birth to his daughter?
Mo Rongzhan said plainly, "She has a mark of the divine race on her shoulder. I checked, and in the past hundred years, only you have been to the human continent. If she isn't your daughter, then I must have missed it."
"Young Emperor, where is this girl now?" God General Xuan Yuan hurriedly asked.
"In the Heaven Castle," Mo Rongzhan said.
God General Xuan Yuan's expression changed slightly. "Why is she there?"
If it was a year ago, he wouldn't have heard of the reputation of the Heaven Castle. But recently, it was too conspicuous. For hundreds of years, besides the Nine Heavens God Race, no one had been able to rule half of the human continent.
In time, the entire human continent might be ruled by Wen Tian.
"I don't know about that," Mo Rongzhan said plainly. "However, I did see a strange phenomenon when I went to the human continent."
"What's strange?" God General Xuan Yuan asked.
Mo Rongzhan's thin lips curled up slightly. "Mortals actually no longer worship the God Race. Instead, they view the demonic beast Soaring Serpent as their guardian deity. Don't you think this is very strange?"
Divine General Xuan Yuan's gaze flickered slightly. As the Grand Emperor's confidant, he naturally knew what had happened in the recent hundred years. Although he had once begged the Grand Emperor to send him to drive away the demon beasts to protect the mortals, mortals were like lowly ants in the Grand Emperor's eyes. They weren't worth wasting the divine power of the Nine Heavens, so it had been delayed until now.
"Young Empress, this … perhaps the mortals were bewitched by the demon beasts," God General Xuan Yuan said in a low voice.
"Confused?" Mo Rongzhan smiled faintly, "I don't think you are confused. Every mortal is very clear-headed. I remember that you are the first Immortal General of the Elysium. Apart from guarding the Nine Heavens, you also have to monitor the situation of other continents. For so many years, Immortal General Xuan Yuan must have been aware of the situation of the human world. Are you hiding it from me?"
Divine General Xuan Yuan looked up abruptly and shouted anxiously, "How can this be! I'll report any abnormalities to the Grand Emperor as soon as possible. "
"In that case, the Grand Emperor already knew what the situation was like in the human world," Mo Rongzhan said coldly.
"The Grand Emperor has his own reasons for every decision he makes," God General Xuan Yuan said in a low voice.
Mo Rongzhan didn't say anything more. He stood up and said, "The girl you saw just now is called Xiaoyao. Like other mortals, the divine race isn't even as good as a demon beast to her. However, because she has the mark of the divine race, her blood is attracting demon beasts. She doesn't know how to hide the scent on her body and was almost eaten by the demon beasts."
God General Xuan Yuan's expression instantly changed. "What?"
Mo Rongzhan's back view had already disappeared from the hall.
…
…
Xiaoyao returned to the Heavenly Castle. When she was alone in her room, she crushed the jade scrolls and learned the pithy chants inside. When she looked at the birthmark on her shoulder, it had indeed disappeared.
She couldn't smell the scent of her blood and wasn't sure if she was no longer attracting the attention of the demon beasts.
"Ah Bu!" Xiaoyao opened the door and saw Ah Bu passing by. She hurriedly called out to him, "Can you smell the fragrance of my blood?"
"…" Ah Bu frowned and looked at her, unsure of what she meant.
Xiaoyao put her hand in front of Ah Bu's face. "Quick, smell it."
Ah Bu had smelled the alluring scent on Xiaoyao's body before. If she hadn't restrained herself, she might have eaten her. However, she didn't smell any scent now.
Seeing Ah Bu shake her head, Xiaoyao's expression brightened. She had deliberately left the blood elixir in the room. It seemed that Mo Rongzhan didn't lie to her. The pithy chants could indeed hide the scent of blood.
"That's great!" Xiaoyao exclaimed happily. "I'm going to find brother."
Because Wen Tian was cultivating in seclusion again and because Hui had just attacked the Heavenly Castle, Woo Sheng and the others were patrolling outside to prevent other demon beasts from appearing.
Xiaoyao quickly found out where Woo Sheng was.
"Brother, I have something to ask you," Xiaoyao came to Woo Sheng's side and whispered to him.
"What is it?" Woo Sheng asked with a smile.
Xiaoyao pointed at his shoulder. "Brother, do you have a birthmark here?"
Woo Sheng smiled. "No, why?"
If she was a divine race, then she and Woo Sheng were siblings. Brother Woo Sheng should also be a divine race, but why didn't Woo Sheng have a birthmark?
"No, I'm just curious why I have a birthmark but you don't," Xiaoyao said with a smile. Xiaoyao said with a smile. She pretended to ask casually, "Brother, I can't remember what our parents are like."
Woo Sheng was slightly stunned. Then, he smiled and said, "Mother passed away not long after you were born. Of course you don't remember."
"What about our father?" Xiaoyao asked.
"Father …" Woo Sheng was silent for a moment. "My father passed away when I was very young."
Xiaoyao was stunned. She felt that Woo Sheng's words were a little strange. "Brother's father?" She laughed. "Do we have two fathers?"
"Yes." Woo Sheng nodded slightly.
"What?" Xiaoyao blinked and looked at Woo Sheng in a daze.
Woo Sheng touched Xiaoyao's head gently. "I never told you that we have the same mother but different fathers. Mother only gave birth to you when I was about seven or eight years old."
"Then who is my father?" Xiaoyao asked in a daze.
"I don't know either …" Woo Sheng said with pity. "Mother never mentioned it. She just told me to take good care of you."
Xiaoyao's face turned a little pale.
So … what Mo Rongzhan said might be true?
Could she be a descendant of the divine race?
