"Xiaxia...Xiaxia...wake up..."
Song Xia felt as if she were in a fog, with nothing around her and her body feeling light and airy. She didn't know how long she had been drifting there. In her confusion, her thoughts gradually returned as she heard the call.
"Xiaxia, can you hear me?"
"Xiao Ling?" Song Xia asked tentatively, and even that one question almost drained all her energy.
"Thank goodness, you're finally awake!" Xiao Ling said thankfully. "I thought you were almost lost in this world."
As she heard those words, a warm current flowed into Song Xia's body, and she felt herself finally become more grounded.
"Am I in a soul state?"
"To be precise, your physical body is gone. Now you are a ghost, and a very weak one at that, who could dissipate at any moment."
"How long has it been? I remember being skinned and dismembered as soon as I arrived."
"Eighteen years."
"Eighteen years?" Song Xia was shocked. "I only woke up after a full eighteen years?"
Xiao Ling smiled bitterly: "When I first arrived, I happened to witness the original body's death and dissipation. If I hadn't expended a lot of energy, you might have also been annihilated. It was only after a lot of effort that we found this place where Yin energy gathered that you regained your consciousness."
"So what's the situation now?" This memory inheritance is incomplete, and she doesn't dare to let all the memories reappear for the time being, fearing that her fragile soul body cannot withstand it.
"You were deliberately plotted against in this life, and not only you, but also your two children. After your death, your two children are now in dire straits. So Xiaxia, you must recover your strength as soon as possible and rescue your two children, otherwise they..."
Song Xia frowned: "But I'm so weak right now, how can I save people? What will happen if I can't save them?"
"One was stripped of his bloodline and died just like you, while the other turned to the dark side, suffered greatly, and then destroyed the world."
"Stripping someone of their bloodline? Is this something a righteous sect would do?" Song Xia sneered. "I was confused. What is there in this world that is truly right or wrong? It's just a matter of different perspectives. Even the Heavenly Dao hasn't punished someone for stripping someone of their bloodline, which shows that this world is headed for destruction."
“Xiaxia, you guessed right. I can sense that the rules of this world are very weak. The Heavenly Dao may be about to be annihilated. In the previous few times, the constraints I faced in those worlds became increasingly severe, but here, I can freely enter and exit. Otherwise, I would not have been able to bring your soul here.”
Song Xia's eyes were indifferent: "That's why those so-called 'saviors' can be so lawless, openly stealing bloodlines."
"Xiaxia, they are very hateful, but the weak mortals of this world are innocent, so we must stop Rukawa."
"Is Liuchuan my son?" Song Xia's expression froze, and an overwhelming pain suddenly welled up inside her, a powerful sorrow almost engulfing her. "The other child, is he named Shuangzhi?"
"Yes, Xiaxia, we have to hurry. Shuangzhi's true phoenix bloodline has also been discovered. They failed to transplant your bloodline back then, and now that Shuangzhi has grown up, they've set their sights on her. In my previous life, little Shuangzhi died because of this."
Song Xia gritted her teeth: "They've gone too far! I will never let them get away with this. I will make them taste the pain of having their blood stripped off!"
"Xiaxia, possess its body." Xiaoling summoned a green spirit bird, one of the most common spirit birds in the cultivation world. It has no combat power, only its speed is worth mentioning, but even that is not top-notch. In addition, there are not many green spirit birds that can be enlightened, so even cultivators who love animals are unwilling to keep green spirit birds as spirit pets.
"I possessed its body to save you."
"Good boy." Song Xia fed it some food, then her spiritual sense possessed its body. Instantly, Song Xia felt as if she had become a little bird flying in the sky.
"Xiaxia, go down low. Some eagle-like spirit beasts like to feed on green spirit birds. We don't have much fighting power right now, so we must stay away."
"Oh." Song Xia controlled the bird's body, flying while avoiding potential dangers around her, with Xiao Ling reminding her from time to time.
Tired, Song Xia found a tree to stop and rest, returned control to the Green Spirit Bird, and began to cultivate according to the ghost cultivation method given to him by Xiao Ling. After adjusting his physical strength, he flew with all his might, trying to reach the Divine Origin Sect as quickly as possible.
At this moment, Shi Liuchuan and Shi Shuangzhi within the Shenyuan Sect felt extremely uneasy, as they sensed that something terrible was about to happen to them.
Cultivators value premonitions highly because they can potentially help them avoid danger. However, in this vast sect, even though their grandfather was the sect leader of the Divine Origin Sect and their father was the next successor of the Divine Origin Sect, they had no one to confide in.
This is because their father remarried after their mother disappeared. His new wife was a direct disciple of the Xuan Guang Sect Master. In the entire cultivation world, the most powerful sects are the Shen Yuan Sect, the Xuan Guang Sect, and the mysterious Jiu Tian Palace.
The marriage between the young sect leader of the Divine Origin Sect and the direct disciple of the sect leader of the Profound Light Sect naturally makes their children the most noble in the world, and the children of these two wives naturally become superfluous.
Moreover, those two were quite different; one inherited his father's true dragon bloodline, and the other inherited his biological mother's eyes of salvation. They were nothing like the ordinary people they were.
It is said that the former young sect leader was bewitched by a demoness, which led to his unsavory past. Now, he and Fairy Su Mu of the Xuan Guang Sect are the true match recognized by the Heavenly Dao. After the two gave birth to twins, they were recognized as saviors by the mysterious Nine Heavens Palace and attracted even more attention from the cultivation world.
They have nothing, and the fact that the Divine Origin Sect is willing to take them in is already an act of kindness from the Divine Origin Sect.
"Brother, they all say that Mother stole the Divine Origin Sect's treasure and left. Do you think that's true?" Shi Shuangzhi's eyes were blank, and her thin body looked even more frail.
"I don't believe it." Shi Liuchuan gritted his teeth. "First, let's not even talk about whether Mother has the ability to come and go freely within the Divine Origin Sect. Second, who has ever clearly explained what the sect's most precious treasure is? Third, if Father was truly deeply in love with Mother before, how could he have married that Fairy Su Mu in such a short time? Cultivators already have difficulty having offspring, yet Shi Tianning and Shi Tiankui are only one year apart from us! Is this a coincidence?"
“I don’t want to admit it, but my mother has never come back to see us since she left.”
Shi Liuchuan's throat moved. He wanted to tell his sister that it was uncertain whether their mother was still alive. He and his sister were different; he didn't believe anything about this sect. His sister was too soft-hearted and too naive.
