Chapter 458 Wizard (2/2)
His thoughts remained focused on the little girl. He has attempted to abduct her several times but she had a pendant on her that was a concentration of the will of the people of Xi Liang and that prevented him from getting close to her. On top of that, she was the daughter of the Master of the City. She was well protected and security was always tight around her.
That was the reason why the wizard decided to help the Gao family with the uprising, so that he could disperse the concentrated will of the people. He delivered his promise to get rid of the Master of the City but did not expect the Gao family to be so useless to fail capturing the little girl.
Even the prized possessions of the Master of the City could not make up for the loss of the little girl. The moment he laid his eyes on the girl, he knew that her soulful aura would be able to help him cultivate to a higher state. He then would be able to return to his tribe and take back the position that initially belonged to him. Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
The city of Xi Liang was nothing compared to the rankings of a Doyen of a tribe.
As long as he returned to the tribe, he would be a true 'wizard' or even achieve his ancestral trait of immortality.
...
Chen Qing woke up to a terrible morning as Shen Lian told her the bad news.
Her mother was no longer around and Chen Qing believed his words. She dreamed of her mother last night, the mother who was strict yet loving. They were now separated by life and death.
Shen Lian guessed that this place was part of the Nine Underworlds and anyone who passed away here would not have a beautiful ending. But at least he managed to observe the person in Chen Qing's dream was definitely not her mother. It was more of a collection of scattered spirits.
When an ordinary person passed away, their spirits would never be as scattered as the one he observed. There would at least be some concentrated spirit's will and if the deceased was lucky, it could turn into a ghost.
Maybe it was something that has to do with the structure of their body. After all, they were conceived by drinking the waters of River of Mother.
Chen Qing was in grief but Shen Lian just could not feel sad about it.
His sentiments towards Chen Qing was not even close to the likes of old Master Shen and Ruoxi.
Chen Qing was a little upset by his coldness.
She wanted to say something but nothing could come out from her mouth as she looked at Shen Lian's eyes.
Shen Lian pointed at the fruits and said, ”These fruits are free from poison, you can have this for breakfast. We will stay here for a couple of days more and the two of you would need to rest well and recover. It makes no sense for the living beings to be affected by the deceased. Grandmother too would like to see you cheer up and be strong for the future.”
His words were calm and objective but what consoled Chen Qing was his thoughts of preparing the fruits for her. Her son that was born a deity actually cared about her food consumption and that caught her by surprise.
She did not know if her mother once had such sentiments too. After all, this was her first time being a mother.
Han Ying and Chen Qing did not enjoy a close relationship prior to this. But after a couple of days, they shared a sister-like deep relationship.
Shen Lian was not surprised by this and he did not think that such relationship, formed so quickly, would last long. But it was a good thing that the two of them could get along with each other well.
After two days of preparation, Han Ying's body had fully recovered and Chen Qing had regained her health. Her speedy recovery after giving birth and experiencing the loss of her mother was beyond her imagination.
But it would not be too surprising if they knew that Shen Lian and the Black Tiger has almost wiped clean of all the spiritual fruits and herbs of Mount Jieyang for them for the past two days.
The poor Black Tiger wanted to eat their excretion to absorb the undigested soulful aura but Shen Lian told him very clearly that he should never consume feces.
