After waiting for two months, Anya's father, who was also the leader of the Shuntian League, finally ended his long seclusion.
The moment he woke up, a ray of light shot up into the sky, and a mighty aura swept through the entire secret realm. All the cultivators of the Sky Alliance in the secret realm raised their heads to look at the pillar of light, and their hearts were filled with shock and suspicion.
Even among the Shuntian League cultivators in the secret realm, only a few of the truly powerful and core members knew about the existence of the leader of the Shuntian League. However, only two or three of them had actually seen the leader, and Anya was one of them.
The pillar of light lasted for an entire hour before it ended. The aura that was like a torrential wind and torrential current also disappeared along with it.
"Father has woken up, let's go and greet him."
At this moment, Anya and Xiao Lingyu were in her simple room, which did not look like a girl's room at all. She felt that everything had calmed down, and she pulled Xiao Lingyu to the opposite door.
In the past two months, Anya often brought Xiao Lingyu around the secret realm, and introduced him to the Shuntian League cultivators. However, most of the time, the two of them would return to this stone building.
After spending so much time together, and with the fact that they were already husband and wife, they naturally became more and more harmonious, and even the small misunderstandings in the past were completely forgotten.
Xiao Lingyu had also been in a relationship before, and his EQ did not decrease much due to the long period of cultivation. He knew very well how to get along with his girlfriend, and he also knew that they should be more tolerant of each other.
Anya used to be cold and unapproachable, but ever since Xiao Lingyu conquered her body, she gradually became less autistic. At least in front of Xiao Lingyu, she was still considered gentle and pleasant.
Xiao Lingyu had been working hard for many years, and had experienced countless twists and turns, and had long forgotten the peaceful days without cultivation. These two months made him feel very stable and peaceful, and he felt that God was really kind to him to have such a period of time before he ascended.
When he arrived at the secret room on the other side, the cocoon of light had already disappeared, and a middle-aged cultivator wearing a blue robe had his back to the door. He was staring at a portrait on the wall that had appeared out of nowhere.
As the middle-aged cultivator's body covered most of the portrait, Xiao Lingyu could not clearly see the appearance of the person in the portrait, and could only see the forehead and hair tied up in a bun.
However, from the forehead and hair, he could tell that the person in the portrait was a woman.
"Father … Father!"
Perhaps it was because An Ya had never called anyone "father" since she was born. At this moment, she seemed a little emotional and her voice was a little choked up.
The middle-aged cultivator seemed to have suddenly come back to his senses, and he faintly sighed. He turned around and said with a smile, "Ya 'er, I've let you and your mother down all these years, and I've let you suffer."
His originally imposing appearance had now become amiable. When the middle-aged cultivator said this, he gave Xiao Lingyu the feeling of an uncle next door, and he could not help but think of his father.
Xiao Lingyu's father was usually very strict, but sometimes he was very doting on him.
"Father, I didn't suffer, but I've always missed my mother. Father, can you tell me when my mother will come back?" Although the corners of Anya's eyes were overflowing with sparkling tears, her expression was very strong.
"Ai, your mother, she won't be coming back, because she's already … gone." The middle-aged cultivator's face was filled with sorrow.
"No, father, you're lying to me. Elder Weng and Elder Xun both said that my mother went out to do something, and will be back soon."
Hearing her father's words, Anya couldn't help but tremble and take a step back. She said in disbelief, and the tears in her eyes flowed like a spring.
"They were afraid that you would be sad, so they lied to you. The reason why I had to go into seclusion for so many years was because I had to cultivate a cultivation method, and also because I was seriously injured. It was because I was seriously injured and on the verge of death that in order to save me, your mother didn't hesitate to use all of her strength to heal me and help me enter a state of cultivation. "
When the middle-aged cultivator said this, two streams of hot tears flowed down. After a slight pause, he continued, "At that time, your mother was already pregnant with you. In order to save me, she used up too much of her strength, but her original cultivation wasn't very strong. After my injuries were stabilized, she was also like a lamp that had run out of oil. What was helpless was that at that time, only my consciousness existed, and my body couldn't move at all, so I couldn't stop her. Originally, she didn't have to die, but at that time, she was pregnant with you. If she wanted to save her life, she had to give you up. Because when she was pregnant with you, she had to pour the strength and life essence that she had painstakingly cultivated for many years into your body day and night. Unfortunately, she was soft-hearted and couldn't bear to part with you at all. At the last moment, she poured all of her remaining energy into your body, allowing you to be born early. After you were born, she passed away. "
"No! You're lying to me! "
Anya really couldn't believe this result. She immediately covered her face and ran back to her secret room to cry bitterly.
Although Anya had never seen her mother since she was born, and under normal circumstances, she shouldn't have too many feelings for her. However, for many years, Elder Xun and Elder Weng said that Anya's mother went out to do something in order to be able to cultivate in peace. Anya had always been looking forward to her mother's return.
This expectation gradually became a habit, and Anya had always kept it in her heart. As time passed, this kind of invisibly deepened and became more and more intense, becoming difficult to untie and let go of.
After so many years of waiting, this was the result. One could imagine how disappointed and sad Anya was at this time.
Xiao Lingyu was embarrassed. He could understand Anya's feelings, but he couldn't just run over to comfort her. After all, his father-in-law was still curiously staring at him.
"Anya left in a hurry just now, so I haven't introduced myself. I'm An Cui, Anya's father." The middle-aged cultivator cupped his fists and said very politely.
Although Xiao Lingyu didn't introduce himself, an insightful cultivator like An Cui could still guess a little.
"Xiao Lingyu greets Uncle." Xiao Lingyu bowed and saluted.
"Hehe, you're very interesting. You've obviously cultivated the Primal Chaos Force that everyone can only dream of, but you've been demonized. As a result, your future is uncertain." When An Cui heard how Xiao Lingyu addressed him, he was even more certain of his guess. Therefore, he didn't hide anything and directly spoke.
"This is something that can't be helped. Previously, I was implanted with a demon fetus by the Black Blood Demon. After a few mishaps, I became like this. Uncle, do you have a way to solve this?" Xiao Lingyu replied gloomily.
"If you're cultivating other techniques or energy, I can think of a way. However, your Primal Chaos Force is too advanced, and your demonization is too deep. I'm afraid that even the experts of the God Realm can't do anything about it." An Cui shook his head and said.
"Then I can only take one step at a time. My luck is pretty good." Xiao Lingyu smiled bitterly and said helplessly.
"Hehe, misfortune is a blessing in disguise. Your Primal Chaos Force being demonized may not be a bad thing. At least for now, it seems that your demonized Primal Chaos Force is very powerful. I'm afraid that you won't be able to find a match in the Cultivation World." An Cui smiled and comforted him.
"The Cultivation World is just the beginning of cultivation." Xiao Lingyu didn't dare to be arrogant.
As they spoke, Xiao Lingyu had been sensing the aura fluctuations on An Cui's body. He found that An Cui's aura leaked out when he was in seclusion. However, it was completely hidden now, so he couldn't detect it at all. It could be seen that An Cui's strength was at least a realm higher than his.
A Ninth Tribulation expert was already at the peak of the Cultivation World. Xiao Lingyu should be a level higher than a Ninth Tribulation expert, but he was about to ascend. This An Cui was at least a level higher than him. What level was An Cui at?
"When it comes to cultivation, we'll find out in the future. Let's not talk about this for now. What do you think of my daughter? "An Cui asked with a very curious expression.
"Anya is diligent and conscientious in her cultivation. She's serious and meticulous in her work. She's naturally not an ordinary woman to be able to achieve Sword Heart Illumination in sword cultivation." Xiao Lingyu was not stingy with his praise because he was speaking the truth.
"In this aspect, Ya 'er is very similar to her mother. It's just that her mother had a hard life and met me. Otherwise, she wouldn't have …"
"Uncle, you don't have to blame yourself too much. Auntie shouldn't regret her choice at all." Xiao Lingyu continued, not wanting An Cui to be too sad and guilty.
The most taboo thing for cultivators was to be too attached to love. Because of this, it would form an inner demon over time.
"When we first got together, we wanted to be a loving couple. Unfortunately, I was a person who would get into trouble wherever I went. She had to suffer with me and in the end, she even lost her life. Now I repent, but it's too late. If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have fought for anything back then. I would have found a place to live in seclusion and never cared about the affairs of the world again. I wouldn't think about those messy things. "An Cui sighed.
"Life is hard to predict. Who can continue to walk according to their own ideas? Sometimes, since you've started, you have to keep going. "Xiao Lingyu said with deep feelings.
"I just hope that you can cherish Ya 'er a little more in the future. Don't let her suffer too much like her mother." An Cui said bluntly.
Xiao Lingyu knew that his father-in-law was warning him. Usually, a prospective son-in-law would inevitably hear such words when he visited. Therefore, he nodded and said, "Uncle, don't worry. As long as I'm still breathing, I won't let Anya suffer."
