Lan Fan and Dong Jing were overjoyed and urged, "Why aren't you thanking Master Xiao?"
"On behalf of our Dong and Du families, we thank Senior for your kindness!" Dong Xing and Du Bin bowed again with gratitude.
"I won't bother with such trivial matters." Xiao Hua helped them up and said, "As for the cooperation with the Lan family, let Zhiwen discuss it with you in the future!"
Lan Fan was also overjoyed. He was still thinking about how to tell Xiao Hua. He didn't expect Xiao Hua to be so straightforward.
In fact, Xuan Pu didn't think much of Xiao Hua. Lan Fan and the other Family Heads were merely Earth Immortals of the Prime Clarity Lineage and their clans were too weak. Therefore, Xiao Hua had planned to wait for ten thousand years before leaving for Jade Pavilion.
However, Xiao Hua was touched by Lan Fan's wisdom and their kindness. If he didn't support such a Confucian Immortal, who should he support?
Moreover, Xuan Pu had the Jade Vein, which was very beneficial to the rise of the Luoyi Merchant Union. Therefore, Xiao Hua changed his mind.
"Yes, yes!" Lan Fan and the others smiled and said, "We will discuss it with Senior Fu."
Xiao Hua cultivated the Dam Mountain Immovable Art in the Huai River Heavenly Realm. The space was also baptized by the law of time. All the disciples benefited from it. Even Fu Zhiwen and the others who ascended later had the strength of mid-stage Grand Heavenly Realm. In the Heavenly Court, they would be second or third stage Earth Immortals of the Prime Clear lineage.
As for Dong Xing, he glanced at Dong Jing and said, "Dong Jing, weren't you worried about how to explain your bloodline to Du Bin?"
"Now that Master Xiao is here, we can explain it to avoid trouble in the future!"
"Actually, there's no need for that." Dong Jing smiled sweetly at Du Bin and said, "I was worried before, but the moment I activated the Yan City Immortal Record, I felt that the knot in my heart was untied. No matter why I have the bloodline of the Du family, I relied on it to save my husband. This alone is enough."
"Of course, I won't have any doubts." Du Bin nodded slightly. "However, the four of us have an agreement. We can have privacy, but if two people are involved, we have to disclose it. Although you and I are husband and wife, I think Lan Fan has the right to know."
"Alright!" Dong Jing smiled and said, "Although this is a secret of my Dong Family, it has been a long time, and it involves the Dong Family, the Du Family, and even the Lan Family. If I don't explain it, my husband will always have doubts. So, it's appropriate to explain it now."
As she spoke, Dong Jing waved her hand. Five-colored Qi threads gushed out and condensed into a Confucian woman. Xiao Hua was stunned when he saw this woman. Wasn't this woman the previous incarnation of the Pear Blossom Fairy that he had seen in the space in the painting?
"This ancestor's name is Dong Xin," Dong Jing said. "She is the ancestor of my lineage. However, her name and image are not recorded in the genealogy because she is the product of a conspiracy."
Then, Dong Jing looked at Du Bin apologetically and said, "The ancestor of my Dong Family has always coveted the Du Family's Book of Immortals, so he arranged for a senior of my Dong Family to fall in love with a senior of the Du Family's lineage and gave birth to Senior Dong Xin. According to convention, Senior Dong Xin should be called Du Xin!"
"And after Senior Dong Xin found out about her past, she would rather die than marry a disciple of the Dong Clan and give birth to a descendant of the Du Clan. Although Senior Dong Xin decided to live alone for the rest of her life, fate makes fools of people. She actually met Lan Yu from the Lan Clan!
As she spoke, Dong Jing waved her hand again. The five-colored clouds condensed into another male immortal.
Zhou Xiaoming!
Looking at the male immortal's appearance, wasn't he a living Zhou Xiaoming?
"I don't know what happened, but Senior Dong Xin and Senior Lan Yu fell in love at first sight. In order to get rid of the Dong Family, Senior Dong Xin had a son with Senior Lan Yu. After sending the child back to the Lan Family, she left Xuan Pu with Senior Lan Yu!"
Hearing this, Dong Xing added, "After I took over as the head of the Dong Family, I found this when I was cleaning up some old secrets. Since Dong Jing is Senior Dong Xin's descendant, she should have the blood of the Du Family, so I told her about it! Because of the long history, these records are incomplete. The ancestor who knew about this has already passed away, so there are very few records about Senior Dong Xin and Senior Lan Yu. "
"Everyone, please wait a moment!" Lan Fan smiled bitterly. "I know that a long time ago, there was a master of painting in my Lan Family called Lan Yu. His brush was like a god, and every time he put down his brush, wind and thunder would move. But I don't know if he's the Lan Yu you're talking about. I'll ask my son to look for him!"
Taking advantage of this, Xiao Hua asked Dong Xing, "Does your Dong Family have a Scholar Dong?"
"Our Dong Family has many scholars!" Dong Xing smiled obsequiously. "Senior, which one are you talking about?"
Hearing Dong Xing's answer, Xiao Huazi knew that the Lin Quan Gao Yi Painting was not from this Dong Family.
Xiao Hua promised to send Scholar Dong's skeleton back to the Heavenly Court with the imprint of his Primordial Spirit in the Lin Quan Gao Yi Painting. However, Scholar Dong did not say where he came from, so Xiao Hua could only look for it himself.
"Have you seen this place before?"
Xiao Hua thought for a while, then sent out the pavilion in Zhou Xiaoming's memory.
Everyone looked at it and shook their heads.
"Everyone ~" Lan Fan also spoke. He smiled bitterly and shook his head. "I've checked the records in the family. There is indeed such a Lan Yu, but this Lan Yu ascended to immortality and is a disciple of the Lan Family in the mortal world. There are only a few records in the family, just like what I said just now. As for his whereabouts, life and death, and even his relationship with Senior Du, there are no records at all! "
Dong Xing smiled and said, "Senior Lan Yu and Senior Dong Xin's whereabouts are no longer important. These are just our ancestors' suspicions and schemes. We don't need to look into it too much. We just need to make things clear and not have any suspicions between us. We just need to manage the three families well!"
"Yes, yes!" Du Bin looked at Dong Jing and said. "That's how it should be."
Dong Jing smiled and said, "The Black Garden looks big, but it's actually small. We should leave the Black Garden and go to the Void Imperial City, or even the Yellow City to take a look."
Dong Jing looked at Xiao Hua and said, "We need Master Xiao to give us this opportunity."
"Haha ~" Xiao Hua laughed and waved his sleeve, sending Fu Zhiwen out. He said, "Zhiwen, I'll leave the matter of helping the Third Old Master to build the Flowing Merchant Union to you."
"Yes, Master!" Fu Zhiwen respectfully agreed, but he knew that the Flowing Merchant Union's plans and expansion would be completed by Xiao Hua. Even the Flowing Merchant Union's disciples would be taken over by other Fortune Gate disciples. He was just representing Xiao Hua.
Subsequently, Fu Zhiwen brought the three families' Patriarchs to the Black Peak to discuss how to cooperate. Xiao Hua stroked his chin and thought to himself, 'It seems like Lan Yu is the High Purity Palace's Master's past life, and Dong Xin or Du Xin is Li Hua's past life. Needless to say, the two of them have already fallen. Now, we need to confirm whether Yue Yichun is Li Hua's reincarnation. After all, reincarnation is quite mysterious. Sometimes, they might look similar to their past life, but in reality, most of them are different. It's already good that the High Purity Palace's Master has the aura of Lan Yu's past life. '
