Chapter 201: Chapter 200: Passed-on Relic
Sally held the golden egg, which she hadn’t even seen before Xiaomei teleported her away.
Now, seeing it, the connection of blood between mother and son welled up within her.
[It’s my son.]
[There’s no mistake about it.]
‘Smack—’ Sally planted a big kiss on it, [My sweet baby, come, have a bath with your sister.]
Sally directly placed Xiaoqi into the golden lake.
Manman was still sleeping, feet up in the air, with her colorful feathered crown fully submerged in the divine blood.
[Xiaomei, this divine blood counts as one of the treasures I’ve chosen, right?]
[If the host can find the Passed-on Relic of Qing, then everything here will belong to the host.]
[Alright, we’ll look for the relic first. The kids won’t have any issues soaking in the divine liquid, will they?]
[No issues.]
[Then let’s start with a thorough sweep.] Sally began searching from the stairs she had descended.
With the System Map, she didn’t miss even a tiny pebble.
It had to be said, the tomb was filled with innumerable objects, all strange and bizarre.
White tree trunks and leaves, yet bearing black fruit, Xiaomei said these were seeds from ancient times, the divine species, and that Sally could not eat the fruit at present because they contained thick chaotic rule energies. They could be used in the future when she carried a divine fetus.
Xiaomei sure had high hopes for her, a divine fetus?
Where would she find a male from the Divine Clan!
Sally picked up a gray stone box with dense intricate patterns covering it.
[Xiaomei, whatever is inside this box must also be extraordinary, right?]
[Hmm, open it and see. This gray stone is blocking my scanning.]
[Alright.] Sally lifted the lid of the box.
Inside was a green vine with fresh leaves, as if it would grow the moment it touched the soil.
[What is this?] asked Sally to Xiaomei, who replied after scanning for a while, [It somewhat resembles a sprout from the Nine-Turn Divine Gourd Vine. Do not collect it now – find the Passed-on Relic first; all of these will be yours.]
[Okay, let’s continue searching.] Sally looked around the vast tomb chamber, several other side chambers yet to be searched.
Fortunately, she was accompanied by her children and Xiaomei, so no matter how long it took, it was not an issue.
But she was without issues.
There were issues!
Zi Qi was as if sculpted from millennia-old ice marrow.
The atmosphere in the Imperial Palace was extremely heavy, as if the sky itself were about to collapse! Even the guards standing outside the palace gates didn’t dare to breathe too loudly.
Her son was missing!
And lost right from the palm of her own hand!
Yu Yan was at something of a loss for words; there was nowhere to even start searching.
“All those with a grudge against Your Majesty have been checked, none had the chance or the power to act. The only possibility now is that the child’s mother took him back herself.”
“…” Zi Qi had already considered this, but there was no reason for her to do so.
Now, she should be busy bearing children with her new love, how could she possibly spare a thought for past attachments or a child? The child Ming Linyuan had was probably conceived just to send a message back and incidentally borne.
“Have you checked the Fire Phoenix Clan?” Zi Qi had helped to search for Manman some days before and had also visited the Fire Phoenix Clan.
Yu Yan scratched his head, “The new Clan Leader of the Fire Phoenix Clan personally executed Xun Changji, extracting the soul and burning the bones. They are busy relocating to the Southern Wasteland now, they shouldn’t have the time to trouble Your Majesty.”
“Search! Search the entire continent!” Zi Qi’s amethyst-like eyes narrowed, “Until my son is found!”
“Alright, during Your Majesty’s absence, some people haven’t held back from making trouble, might as well take care of them too.” Yu Yan accepted the command and left.
Zi Qi turned to look at Xiaoqi who was curled up in the nest, having lost his brother, he hadn’t been eating either.
“Father, when will little brother come back?” she whined, on the verge of tears.
“He’ll be back soon.” Zi Qi held Xiaoqi in his arms, gazing at her… His thoughts turned to Sally. Was it really her he had taken back?
…
Zhu Sanlang returned carrying a huge yellow python.
Looking at the empty platform and the sun lounger that Sally loved for sunbathing, she still hadn’t returned.
It had been half a year. He had been to all the places nearby within that time and had stored a lot of food, just waiting for Sally to come back and eat.
But she hadn’t.
She didn’t know where to go.
A child cannot go hungry! Thinking of the children made Zhu Sanlang frantic with worry.
“Yanyan—” Zhu Sanlang shouted towards the boundless sea.
Sally had already searched the entire tomb chamber. There were many treasures that she wanted!
But she had to find the Passed-on Relic first. Without the relic, she could only choose three. “Xiaomei, what do you think the Passed-on Relic is? If you were the one who possessed it.”
“If it were me, it would be a key,” Xiaomei replied.
“A key?” Sally thought about the entire tomb chamber, “There’s no key.”
“What if it’s the host?”
“Me?” Sally looked towards the Divine Liquid, “Definitely the Bloodline Inheritance.”
To ensure the children’s safety while immersed in the Divine Liquid, she scooped a cupful at the beginning and drank it.
After confirming there were no abnormalities, she then put Manman into it.
Then came Xiaoba.
The dragon patterns on Xiaoba’s surface had now begun to blend, and it was uncertain what the final result would be.
However, Xiaoba’s size had increased a lot.
His scales faintly emitted a rainbow-colored halo, incredibly beautiful.
Manman slept even more soundly.
She was about to wake up, but after soaking in the Divine Liquid, even Xiaomei couldn’t tell when she would awaken.
“What is that?” Sally pointed to a rust-stained lamp on top of the tomb chamber.
She Teleported over and took down the lamp.
Then she wiped it with a wet cloth. The rust stains were surprisingly easy to remove, and in a short while, it was shiny and bright.
“This lamp is pretty.” Sally admired the patterns on the lamp and then ignited the black wick in the middle with her Fire Elemental Power.
The lamp lit up.
A very pleasant-sounding young male voice emanated from the wick, “Destined one, would you like to take me as your mentor?”
Sally was stunned, “Huh?”
“It’s a little girl,” the flame swayed as if it were quite cheerful. 𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑝𝑢𝑏.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Sally replied, “Haha, not a little girl. My children are all eleven… and I have one more in my belly, so that makes twelve. But to the predecessor, I guess I’m also a little girl.”
“Interesting. So, do you wish to take me as your mentor? You can take away everything here. And the Tomb Divine Hall can be passed on to you as well.”
“Where is the Tomb Divine Hall?”
“In the Divine Realm. But it’s not a place you can go to now. You can practice the ‘Supreme One Technique’ I left here, and once you have mastered it, you can go there.”
“I’ve seen it. Well, then I will take you as my mentor. Are you really giving me everything here? And the Tomb Divine Hall too?”
“Yes. You can soak in the Divine Liquid to cultivate, which will make your efforts twice as effective.”
“Is that Divine Liquid your divine blood?”
“Of course not. My divine blood, in the end, coalesced into just three drops. They are in the Tomb Divine Hall. You can take them in the future. The Divine Liquid in the tomb is the blood of an Ancient White Dragon. It maintains the divinity of the tomb, preventing it from becoming a dead tomb.”
Sally looked at the vibrant plants and flowers, “So how do I take you as my mentor?”
