causing shame for you and the entire Fourth Royal Palace. For this, Your Highness, allow me to apologize."Du Gu Cheng remained impassive, his voice cold as he replied, “Minister Shui, arriving at my r...Yao WanYing stopped laughing, looked at the Elder's puzzled eyes, and sneered, "You're being naive. Throwing her to the Holy Land, what if she unlocks its secrets Wouldn't the Elder be left with nothing but empty joy"

"Mother"

Feng Lingxi was stunned by her mother's words. What kind of secret about a holy land Was her mother protecting her

"You're right. If she discovered the secret of this sacred land, I would be left with nothing but empty joy. After all, she is so special, it wouldn't be right for her to go first. You have to go first. What if you die Then there's still her. And if she dies, there's still her daughter."

Feng Lingxi listened to the elder's words, only feeling a chill run down her spine. What kind of place was this holy land Why did they speak of it in such terrifying terms What did the elder truly want

"But I can't open it."

Yao Wan Ying looked at the Grand Elder, "The things in the Holy Land, the Grand Elder knows very well what they are. With my ability, I am completely powerless to resist. I advise the Grand Elder, if you want me to go in and die, at least make those things inside disappear completely. Otherwise, if I die, all the things you want will be gone."

“Bastard!”

The Grand Elder slapped Yao Wan'ying across the face with his hand. Yao Wan'ying's lips were bloodied, but she only wiped them with her hand and sneered, "Grand Elder, even if you kill me, you'll never know the secrets of the Holy Land."

"Okay, wait for me."

The elder stood up and led everyone away. Feng Lingxi watched her mother's swollen face from being beaten, and hurriedly reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of her lips, but her hand was caught by Yao Wan'ying.

"Xier, don't wipe it."

"Mother, what did you just say to the Grand Elder Why doesn't Feng Linger understand a word" Feng Lingxi was completely confused. The Grand Elder mentioned a sacred land, but why did she feel like both her mother and the Grand Elder had been there before And what exactly was that thing they were talking about

Why did Mother say she wasn't a match for that thing Could there be demons and monsters in this holy land

"Xier, Mother has to tell you something. The Great Elder wants to send you to the Sacred Land. This Sacred Land is not a place for people. All the Yao Clan Holy Masters throughout history have been thrown in there, and Mother is the only one who was thrown in but managed to survive."

Yao Wanying said this, Feng Lingxi finally understood why her mother said that the Great Elder wouldn't dare to do anything to her. Her mother knew a lot of information, and this information was extremely useful to the Great Elder. If not, the Great Elder would have probably killed her mother long ago.

"Mother, Xi'er asks you, is the location of the blood sacrifice in the Holy Land"

When mentioned blood sacrifice, Yao Wan-ying's eyes were full of anger, but she nodded nonetheless.

"Your mother went to that place. She had you destroy those things so that one day, the blood sacrifice would be successful."

"Mother, if the blood sacrifice is successful, will the gate of the Holy Land open"

Yaowan sighed, "So-called holy gate wasn't some rumored treasure trove, but a cemetery built by the Yao clan's ancestors inside."

"A cemetery Isn't that where our ancestors of all generations reside Doesn't the Grand Elder know"

"Okay."

Yao Wan'ying looked at Feng Lingxi, "The secret of this cemetery is what the Great Elder wants."

"The Yao ancestors are all dead, what secrets could there be" Even if there were secrets, they wouldn't be good ones. Who would put their treasures in their own graves

Feng Lingxi's doubt made Yao Wan'ying sigh, "On the contrary, there is indeed a treasure in the ancestral tombs of the Yao clan, but only those who are destined will know about it."

Feng Lingxi's lips twitched slightly, what does it mean to be destined

“These Yao clan ancestors, this is really harming people. For a thousand years, the Yao clan has guarded this so-called treasure, and they don't even know what they are protecting. Now that they have raised tigers to become wolves, they want to dig up their ancestral graves. I really don't understand. What was the original intention of the Yao clan when they were founded”

Feng Lingxi was angered, dragging her into this mess. She never understood what was going on, being caught up in all this right and wrong. All she wanted was to live a peaceful life, but the outcome was that she was caught here.

"Xier, tell mother the truth, are you..."

Yao Wan Ying swallowed the words to her lips, Feng Ling Xi watched her mother's struggling gaze, "Mother, what do you want to ask"

"Fine, I won't ask."

Yao Wan Ying clutched Feng Ling Xi's hand, "Mother will protect you. Even if I sacrifice my life, I will shield you and the children, and won't let them get caught up in this conflict."

"Mother, you can tell me anything. Xier has grown up and wants to share your worries."

Feng Lingxi leaned against her mother's legs, her eyes brimming with tears. She could feel the suppression in her mother's heart, she didn't know how much she had endured alone, she wished her mother would tell her, let her accompany her, face it together.

"Xier, have you ever heard of another dimension existing"

Feng Ling Xi's body stiffened, another time and space, she looked up at this mother, "Mother, what do you mean by that"

"The ancestors of the Yao clan came from another time and space. They founded the Yao clan and were once powerful and dominant, slaughtering everywhere they went. But these things are forbidden." Yao Wan'ying gently caressed Feng Lingxi's hair. "The ancestors soon received retribution and a warning from heaven. So, the ancestors built themselves a huge tomb, which is what they call the Holy Land."

Yao Wan Ying paused for a moment, “Her ancestor had moved all the treasures she had acquired with the wisdom of another time and space into the sacred land. She also set up intricate mechanisms, layers upon layers of barriers and secrets, and even created many secrets about the Yao clan's treasure trove, such as treasure maps, purple stars, white glaze, blood sacrifices, and so on.”

Feng Lingxi stared in astonishment at her mother, “Mother, do you mean that the ancestral lands conquered by our forefathers have all been moved into her tomb”

"Yes, to put it plainly, the Yao clan's treasure is actually her tomb. But she was selfish, she was afraid, so she made many versions for later generations, letting the Yao clan people live in seclusion here, guarding this place and preventing anyone from excavating her tomb in the holy land. On one hand, she wanted to protect her mausoleum, on the other hand, she was afraid that things inside the mausoleum would be excavated and bring disaster upon the world."

"Mother, did you find these in the Holy Land"

Feng Lingxi swallowed nervously. It turned out that in this world, there were people like her, and this so-called Yaozu ancestor was one of them. No wonder she could meet other people from another world like her. It seemed that everything was arranged by fate.

“This is what's written in my ancestor’s autobiography. My mother went to the Holy Land and returned. Of course, she knew about it. Besides, my ancestor also wrote in the autobiography that those destined can solve the Yao Clan’s crisis of a thousand years.”

Yao Wan'ying looked at Feng Lingxi, "She came from a different world and single-handedly reversed the situation."

When Feng Ling Xi heard her mother's words, for some reason, she felt that her mother knew her origins.

"Mother's meaning is, this person who turned the tide and changed the Yao Clan is also someone from another time" her. Upon inquiring, they learned that someone had seen the new county master secretly leave Liu Xi County an hour ago.“It seems what Pi Shao said was true, this new county magistrate is the Empress’...
