“The mission is completed. It’s time for you to die.”

When Madam Xuanyuan said this, her smile looked very loving and gentle.

She was like a loving mother gently reminding her child to cover himself with a blanket at night.

After using Liuli Luoluo, he wanted her to die.

However, as the one being used, Liuli Luoluo didn’t show any fear or unwillingness when she heard this.

She even bent down gratefully and held Madam Xuanyuan’s hand piously. Then, she gently pressed her forehead against the back of Madam Xuanyuan’s hand as she said very obediently, “Thank you, Master. It’s my honor to be able to satisfy you.”

Madam Xuanyuan nodded and her smile deepened. “Alright, good child, go.”

Nodding her head, Liuli Luoluo slowly turned around like an obedient robot and walked towards the door of the Patriarch Manor. After going out the door, she turned left and arrived at a courtyard on the left of the residence.

There was a ginkgo tree planted at the edge of the courtyard. As autumn arrived, the leaves on the tree turned golden. The ginkgo tree’s crown grew into the shape of a pine. The short part faced the courtyard, while the long part leaned out of the courtyard and hung high over a steep cliff.

The cliff below was 1,900 meters high. Below the cliff, there was a lake.

Back then, after Yin Mingchong’s scheme had been exposed, he intended to escape from the bottom of this lake.

The Eight Towers Mountain was always foggy in autumn. At night, the fog was even thicker, and the entire peak of the Moon Pointing Mountain was completely enveloped by thick fog. Liuli Luoluo stood under the ginkgo tree as she looked down the cliff. With the light on the mountain, she could only see a dim fog.

The cliff and lake under the thick fog seemed to have disappeared.

As Liuli Luoluo stood under the ginkgo tree, her thin and fragile body looked like it was on the verge of collapse. Without any hesitation, Liuli Luoluo suddenly raised her leg and stood on the railing before jumping down.

Her fragile body fell through the thick fog quickly and continued to fall.

The moment Liuli Luoluo jumped off the cliff, a golden weapon that was like an iron nail suddenly flew out from between her eyebrows.

“Ah!”

When the golden iron nail fell out of her body, she cried out in pain.

No one knew that Liuli Luoluo had been controlled by Madam Xuanyuan since three years ago.

The golden iron nail she struck into her body was called the Mind-controlling Nail.

The Mind-controlling Nail was a cursed spirit artifact. It could be stuck between the eyebrows of a living person and hidden deep in the Spiritual Abode world of a living person. Over time, it could s.n.a.t.c.h the consciousness of a living person and turn them into an obedient puppet.

Three years ago, after Liuli Xiangsi pa.s.sed away, Madam Xuanyuan returned to the Liuli Clan to mourn her senior.

That day, after Liuli Luoluo lost her family member, she was extremely bereaved. Madam Xuanyuan took advantage of her sadness to nail the Mind-controlling Nail between her eyebrows.

In the beginning, Liuli Luoluo wasn’t completely controlled by Madam Xuanyuan. She could occasionally recover her consciousness for a few minutes. However, she was still weak. In a few days, she was completely turned into an obedient puppet.

During the marriage recruitment event, Xuanyuan Chen defeated all his compet.i.tors. He should have successfully won the compet.i.tion, but he didn’t expect Ji Linyuan to appear halfway through. In his despair, Xuanyuan Chen came to question Liuli Luoluo.

In the face of Xuanyuan Chen’s doubts and deep feelings, Liuli Luoluo had a few seconds of clarity. However, before she could tell Xuanyuan Chen what had happened to her, she was controlled by Madam Xuanyuan again.

Under Madam Xuanyuan’s control, she said many unpleasant words to Xuanyuan Chen.

Those words were enough to trample on a proud man’s pride.

As she watched Xuanyuan Chen leave angrily, in that instant, Liuli Luoluo realized that she had lost her beloved and completely accepted her fate. The moment the thought of accepting her fate appeared in her mind, her consciousness was completely suppressed by the Mind-controlling Nail.

From then on, Liuli Luoluo was no longer herself. Her personality slowly changed and she became the model of a good wife and mother in the eyes of men.

She was gentle, virtuous, calm, considerate, and sensible.

She was good in every way, except that she had no thoughts of her own.

No one knew that when she married Ji Linyuan, she was pregnant. Even she didn’t know.

Although she and Xuanyuan Chen had only officially dated for two to three months, the two of them had already known each other for more than ten years. From the moment they entered the Divine Realm Academy, they had been cla.s.smates. The two of them always partic.i.p.ated in the grade a.s.sessment mission together. The two of them had long developed an inseparable relationship.

In this world, no woman knew Xuanyuan Chen’s character better than Liuli Luoluo.

He was a cultivation maniac.

In his world, other than cultivation, there was only her.

It was precisely because she knew Xuanyuan Chen’s character that Liuli Luoluo liked to flirt with him before they confirmed their relationship. Therefore, after confirming their relationship, Liuli Luoluo flirted with Xuanyuan Chen even more openly.

Before they dated, Xuanyuan Chen l.u.s.ted after Liuli Luoluo, but he would never do anything to her. However, after confirming their relationship, Xuanyuan Chen suddenly became emboldened.

Liuli Luoluo was a huge flirt, and she cultivated the carefree Dao at will. In addition, Xuanyuan Chen was a virile young man. The two of them naturally had s.e.x.

When she married Ji Linyuan, the child in Liuli Luoluo’s stomach was less than two months old. She didn’t even notice the changes in her body.

After marrying into the Yin Clan, under Madam Xuanyuan’s control, Liuli Luoluo schemed to obtain the management rights of the Patriarch’s Mansion. After that, she ruthlessly aborted the child, who had just turned three months old, and buried the child under the red elm tree when no one was paying attention.

Back then, the reason Madam Xuanyuan wanted to hold that marriage recruitment event was to choose the best candidates among the men partic.i.p.ating in the marriage recruitment compet.i.tion. Next, she would marry her puppets over one by one and let them get pregnant with holy children. Then, she would secretly hide the holy children and let them grow secretly.

From the beginning, Madam Xuanyuan had her eyes on the Yin Clan’s red elm tree.

The red elm tree had the miraculous effect of absorbing the spiritual power of nature. It was the most suitable place on the Holy Spirit Continent to nurture the holy children.

Back then, Madam Xuanyuan was vexed that there were no men from the Yin Clan partic.i.p.ating in the marriage compet.i.tion when Ji Linyuan came.

When Ji Linyuan and the others were on guard against plotting against Madam Xuanyuan, Madam Xuanyuan was plotting against them too.

The scenes of the past three years quickly flashed across Liuli Luoluo’s mind.

When she thought about how she had actually lost her child and even helped Madam Xuanyuan raise the holy children, Liuli Luoluo felt so pained that she wanted to die.

She fell faster and faster…

Liuli Luoluo didn’t have the slightest desire to live.

She had let her mentor, Xuanyuan Chen, and the entire world down.

She deserved to die.

If she died, she wouldn’t have to be a sinner.

“… I’m sorry.”

Liuli Luoluo closed her eyes.

The wind blew away the tears at the corner of her eyes. Like a kite with a broken string, she quickly disappeared under the thick fog.

As Madam Xuanyuan stood under the red elm tree, she looked up at the sky. The blood-red leaves that filled the sky swayed slightly under the autumn wind, as if they were celebrating her arrival.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Madam Xuanyuan’s heart started to race.

It had been ten thousand years!

He had waited for this day for ten thousand years!

The spring awakening holy baby had already completely grown up. He could immediately fuse with the 24 holy children and complete the revival. How could he not be excited?!

Madam Xuanyuan suddenly raised her right hand and struck the thick trunk of the red elm tree.

Boom!

The roots of the red elm tree were split into pieces, and the soil under the tree was also blasted apart, revealing the intertwined roots below.

A rectangular golden cedar coffin was tightly wrapped in those chaotic tree roots.

The tree roots were deeply inserted into the coffin, and the spiritual energy was continuously sent to the spring awakening holy baby through these tree roots.

Seeing the small coffin, Madam Xuanyuan became excited.

Madam Xuanyuan muttered gently to the small coffin, “Child, come here.” Upon hearing Madam Xuanyuan’s call, the tree roots binding the golden coffin automatically peeled off. Without the confinement of the tree roots, the coffin automatically floated up in front of Madam Xuanyuan.
