Sizzle...
The white smoke generated within the White Cloud Formation soon perated into that silvery veil, and then a strange scene unfolded.
The silvery veil was like a flower bud bathed in the early sun, slowly blooming.
The silver veil solidified as it unfurled, finally becoming an adornnt on both sides of the bed, just like petals.
In the center of the bed lay a girl in a cyan dress.
The girl in the cyan dress was about seven or eight years old, with a slight smile on her petite face, appearing very cute.
Her small hands were clasped together and laid on her flat tummy, her eyes tightly closed.
It was quite strange. The girl's complexion was no different from that of a normal person, yet there was no sign of breathing. Observing from a distance, it was impossible to tell if she was alive.
The beautiful master, upon seeing the scene, paused and murmured in surprise, "Could it be... does that legend truly exist?"
"What legend?" Liu Zixuan walked up from behind, asking curiously.
"Your injuries?" The beautiful master was taken aback. Just now, Liu Zixuan was incredibly weak, so how did he suddenly beco so spirited?
A flash of insight appeared in her mind, and she suddenly understood what was going on, scolding with an amused anger, "Ah, you've even resorted to a ruse of self-injury before your master?"
Liu Zixuan chuckled awkwardly, feeling a bit embarrassed because he was so astonished at the scene before him that he forgot about the ruse he had just played, and imdiately stood up.
Hurriedly changing the subject, he said, "Master, let's discuss the main matter first. There's plenty of ti in the future. If you're still mad after we leave, you can punish however you wish."
The beautiful master gave Liu Zixuan a glance, "I will spare you for now, you rascal!"
Liu Zixuan pouted and asked, "What did you just say about a legend? And what's the story with this little girl? Is she also soone from Lanlou Ancient Country?"
The beautiful master paused, then smiled, "The totem of Lanlou Ancient Country is the moon, and ever since that tradition started, a priest erged accordingly."
"Isn't it three?" Liu Zixuan scratched his head, rembering that Zhou Madman had ntioned it before coming in.
"Those two are just assistants, not real priests. Only the one they acknowledged is the true High Priest."
The beautiful master continued, "It's said that this High Priest possessed a special ability to foresee the future."
Liu Zixuan took out the white satin cloth and handed it to the beautiful master, "This satin ca with that silver hairpin. The patterns inside depict every scene we've encountered since entering the palace!"
The beautiful master glanced briefly at the cloth, "That only further confirms the legend."
"Lanlou Ancient Country was known to the people of Central Province, and it took nearly a hundred years from then to its disappearance. The High Priest's foresight could only predict events within sixty years. Since he could predict current events, it's likely that the year the place vanished, he used all his power to foresee what would happen now."
"Sixty years makes a cycle. Wouldn't that make the High Priest at least seventy or eighty when he died?" Liu Zixuan asked.
"You must know, as one's cultivation realm increases, so does their lifespan. It's not surprising."
The beautiful master smiled gently, "In the legend, the High Priest foresaw the misfortune of Lanlou Ancient Country, an event no one could save it from."
"Then what does this little girl an? Is she the only remaining person from Lanlou Ancient Country?" Liu Zixuan asked.
The beautiful master nodded but then shook her head, "You could say that, but it's not accurate, because on the day the High Priest foresaw disaster for Lanlou Ancient Country, this girl suddenly appeared."
"Suddenly appeared?"
"Indeed, no one knew her origin or why she showed up there, but the ergence of this little girl allowed Lanlou Ancient Country to persist for another three months. During those three months, the High Priest had ti to co to the Central Province Land and establish this place, bringing out the legacy of Lanlou Ancient Country."
"Doesn't that an this little girl defied the High Priest's prophecy?" Liu Zixuan scratched his head, "In that case, this little girl might be more impressive than the High Priest!"
"So, this little girl is the most mysterious existence. The High Priest was powerful, but only within the confines of that enigmatic Lanlou Ancient Country. I even suspect that in the High Priest's prophecy, Lanlou Ancient Country fell due to so event, or encountered a disaster."
Liu Zixuan narrowed his eyes, "So, the fact that Lanlou Ancient Country avoided that calamity and ultimately disappeared was all because of this little girl?"
The beautiful master paused and said, "Yes, that's what I speculate. I've also ntioned before that the High Priest, being powerful, was just a person with a high realm. Lanlou Ancient Country wasn't large, and there weren't many martial artists. The High Priest should have been the strongest, and it's likely his cultivation technique enabled him to foresee the future."
"Think about it, he could foresee the future, so his realm must've been high. Yet why did he hurriedly take relics from the ancient country and create such a peculiar burial ground, rather than relying on his deep cultivation to survive?"
Liu Zixuan suddenly understood, "In this light, it only proves one thing, that his realm wasn't high enough to ensure survival, and if surviving was impossible, moreover, it couldn't have been him who made an entire ancient country disappear overnight."
"So, this little girl is the reason Lanlou Ancient Country vanished!"
The beautiful master approached the little girl, gazing intently, "In the Great Thousand Worlds, there's no shortage of hidden families, even sects. Our understanding of the highest Martial Artist Realm is only the Emperor Realm. But martial arts have no limit, perhaps she's a disciple of an extraordinary hidden sect."
Liu Zixuan was genuinely astonished by these words.
Muttering dumbly, "Master, I rember you once told that the Emperor Realm is the highest existence in the martial path, and that in the city, no so-called Emperor Realm has appeared for decades."
The beautiful master said with slight annoyance, "The reason I didn't tell you before was because I was afraid of you being overly ambitious. Think carefully about our sect's Holy dical Scripture. Cultivating it to the extre can already rival the Emperor Realm. So, do you think the Emperor Realm is the highest existence in the martial path?"
"Moreover, as you just said, it was only in the city. Keep in mind, many powerful beings do not exist in the city. There are many magical places, like Yudu Mountain and other dragon vein gathering spots, which you presently cannot reach."
Liu Zixuan imdiately waved his hand, "I'm not interested in those things right now, it's better to ponder the legacy here!"
