The General’s Genius Daughter

But he still didn’t want to believe it. In his memory, when he had begun to practice in seclusion, Heavenly Saint Xuanyuan was at the great completeness of Round Sun.

After all those years, he couldn’t still be at that level. At that time, that brat was only one year old!

“Grandfather… I dare not lie to you… You are the only one left of your generation. And these are the only elders left in my father’s generation. The rest… the rest have been killed along with my father!”

Xuanyuan Quan said bitterly, “Grandfather, you must avenge my father’s death, recapture the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead for our Xuanyuan Family, and avenge the death of those innocent elders!”

Xuanyuan Wutian’s eyes turned terrible, and he laughed unrulily. “Great! Yun Shimo! You actually have the strength to kill the Patriarch and several elders! You guys don’t have to go out with me… Let me go and meet that brat!”

Xuanyuan Wutian had a high opinion of himself. After all, he was a Qi Artist who was over 80 years old, and his accumulated experience was far more than that of Yun Shimo.

Most importantly, he was a Qi Artist at the Great Deity Realm. It would only be a nuisance for the young people of his family to leave with him!

Before the rest could recover, Xuanyuan Wutian had disappeared from the hall.

Xuanyuan Quan’s face changed drastically. “Grandfather is in such a hurry that I haven’t finished my sentence. Alas… Yun Shimo has reached the great completeness of Great Deity as well. Grandfather, you must be careful!”

The crowd was silent.

There was only one such genius in this world. They had never heard of anyone jumping from the first level of Holy God to the great completeness of Great Deity in just a few days!

“Dad, don’t worry. Great grandfather has been at the great completeness of Great Deity for many years, and his foundation is more stable. While Yun Shimo’s promotion was achieved in a short time, and his foundation is not stable. He’ll definitely suffer losses.”

Xuanyuan Chuyang was not worried. He thought his great grandfather absolutely could seckill Yun Shimo!

The crowd could only comfort themselves in this way. They waited in silence, hoping that Xuanyuan Wutian would return early and that there would not be another tragedy like the previous one.

————————

As Xuanyuan Chuyang had expected, Yun Shimo’s foundation was very shaky.

It was lunchtime. Tianci was in a good mood. He had been discussing with Hua Qiyue whether to go out to buy some beancurd jelly, which he had not eaten for a long time.

They had been practicing in seclusion here these days and hadn’t gone out.

Tianci was bored to death. Children were programmed to play. What was more, Tianci had the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead inside him, and his strength increased day after day.

It wouldn’t be long before Tianci reached the first level of Holy God!

Young as he was, his strength was impressive. He was really something.

“The midday sunshine is scorching. Why don’t we go to the night city at around 5 to 7 p.m?” Hua Qiyue gently filled Tianci’s bowl with half a bowl of soup and then blew the steam away.

Tianci’s eyes were squeezed into two crescent moons due to his broad smile. The Man-Hunting Insect on his shoulder had doubled in size. Tianci patted it, and it flew down obediently to one side to nibble fruit.

“All right, dad. Didn’t you say you were going to give me something last time?” Tianci gave Yun Shimo a sly wink with his big black eyes.

Yun Shimo curved the corner of his lips slightly. He hadn’t expected the little fellow to remember it so well.

“Okay, I’ll get you one when we hang out.”

“Yeah!”

Tianci looked just like a carefree little boy. If it were not for his strong constitution, everyone would think he was no different from an ordinary lively child.

Yun Shimo was about to say something when he suddenly felt a surge of blood in the throat and had a strong urge to spit it out. He immediately got up and rushed out.

Everyone looked at his back strangely.

Hua Qiyue patted Tianci on the shoulder and said eagerly, “Tianci, stay here while I go and see your dad!”

Hua Qiyue hurried out. Tianci, too, wanted to see what was going on, but Xuanji held him back. “Tianci, have lunch first. After that, I’ll find you something novel, okay?”

Tianci was fond of eating and playing. As soon as he heard something playful, he nodded excitedly. “Okay, I like novelties best. But what on earth is dad doing out there?”

Tianci’s heart was itching. Fortunately, Xuanji and Ji Jing were there persuading him, or he would have slipped out.

At the river behind the Qinghe Inn.

Yun Shimo sat on the lush green meadow, trying hard to use the spiritual energy inside him to dissolve the blood that was about to surge out.

Hua Qiyue came to Yun Shimo in silence. She was a little worried at the way his face was turning red.

The blood was not docile. It was more riotous under Yun Shimo’s suppression. Thus, being careless, he puffed out a gulp of blood!

“Shimo! Are you all right?”

Hua Qiyue was stunned. The air smelled faintly fishy. She crouched down and patted Yun Shimo on the shoulder, with worry in her eyes.

Yun Shimo kept silent. He concentrated on refining the powerful force that continued to stir in his body, and there were large beads of sweat on his forehead.

His face gradually turned from red to pale. Hua Qiyue dared not disturb him again for fear that it might affect his refining.

“The Soul-rejuvenating Pellet is not bad, but it’s too dangerous. If Yun Shimo hadn’t had a strong constitution, he would have exploded and died. With the purple energy of the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead, although he sometimes suffers some pain, it lessens because of the aura which is used to suppress the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead.”

What Hua Qiyue could not understand was that why did she not suffer any torture, although she had the Purple Primordial Chaos Bead inside her too?

Yun Shimo gave a sudden, muffled snort and spat out another mouthful of blood. Hua Qiyue’s heart was pounding with fear. She was trying to do something, but the Hare stopped her.

“Don’t do it! Brat, you must go deep into the mountains now to vent your excessive power, or your body will explode due to it… Too late. I have to smack you first!” the Hare said hurriedly.

Hua Qiyue was a little anxious. The Hare had charged toward Yun Shimo like an arrow. When a cloud of white light diffused, Hua Qiyue vaguely saw a human shape appear!

Hey hey!

The true body of the Hare appeared!

Hua Qiyue’s eyes widened. The light in front of her disappeared, and all she could see was a man’s naked body… Ahhhh…

Hua Qiyue turned her head quickly. Ji Jing, Ji Feng, and the others, who followed her out, turned embarrassedly as well.

The Hare would probably vomit blood this time, wouldn’t it? It hadn’t appeared with its true body all the time. Maybe it had just been waiting for a perfect moment. But now it appeared nakedly, and its perfect image was utterly ruined…

The Hare had no time to care that much now. In human shape, he smacked Yun Shimo on the back, and a cloud of black blood spurted from the latter’s mouth. Yun Shimo felt less suffocating and that his blood wasn’t surging so fiercely!

“Thank you… Hare…”

Yun Shimo looked back and saw nothing but the naked body of a living man.

The Hare recovered and gave a cry of shock. All of a sudden, the handsome male shrank into a small, furry Hare. But Hua Qiyue had long since lost the urge to hold it.

“Hahahaha…” Ji Jing was the first to burst into laughter. “Hare Deity, amazing. How could you suddenly retract into your hare body and throw away your beautiful naked body?”

The Hare’s eyes turned red. It growled, waving its paw, “Don’t laugh, don’t laugh! You are just dreaming! You’re merely fantasizing about my naked body!”

Hua Qiyue was shaking with laughter. Obviously, the Hare accidentally exposed its naked body, but it just didn’t admit that. Forget it. As a deity who had lived for more than ten thousand years old, to be seen naked was, without a doubt, a bad thing.

Yun Shimo’s face darkened. He gave the Hare a cold look.

The Hare swished out of sight.

Hua Qiyue and Ji Jing all blushed with laughter. That Hare had always been so cocky. It was its first time to lend a helping hand, but it made a show of itself. Of course, it was dying to save face.

“I’ll go into the mountains first…” said Yun Shimo. Although he felt better now, a faint, stirring sensation was still rising inside him.

Hua Qiyue nodded and was ready to go with him. But looking in the direction of the Hare’s disappearance, she didn’t want to follow him. She’d better do a favor to save the Hare’s face.

Bingyi glanced at Princess Qianyang and strode off behind Yun Shimo.

Princess Qianyang watched Bingyi’s back reluctantly and passionately. That look was full of tenderness and love. Princess Qianyang was now no longer her old self.

Hua Qiyue could not help sighing inwardly. Yun Shimo’s medicine pellet was so powerful that it could make a woman forget a lot of things. If Yun Shimo had fed her that medicine pellet, would she have forgotten a lot?

Hua Qiyue thought of Tianci. Tianci had forgotten a lot about the past, but since that was an unhappy past, it made sense.

But later, Yun Shimo took Tianci away and wiped out the memory of Tianci and her together. When Hua Qiyue thought about it, she had a load on her mind.

“Haha, I didn’t expect that the Hare actually… made a show of itself. I can’t wait to see how dare it to behave arrogantly in the future, haha!” Ji Jing was delighted, for she had detested what the Hare had done in the past.

The Hare always asked them to exercise every time they were in trouble. Even if they were in a life-or-death situation, the Hare wouldn’t lend a helping hand, which annoyed Ji Jing.

Remembering what had just happened, Hua Qiyue laughed again.

Tianci came running and asked, “Mom, I heard the Hare just showed its true body. Aye, where is it?”

Hua Qiyue’s mouth twisted with laughter. Her son wasn’t here just now. If he had been there, the Hare would have made a vain attempt to get the people present to forget the fact that it had exposed its naked body.

Somehow, Hua Qiyue was suddenly full of hope for the future. Although Xuanyuan Wutian and Chu Qianzhao were glaring at them like tigers watching their prey, she believed in Yun Shimo. In Tianpi’s words, with effort, one could achieve anything.

Yun Shimo went into the mountain behind their dwelling place. It was an undulating forest. However, because the forest was near Xuanyuan City, some of the ninth-level and tenth-level evil beasts were basically killed or scared away.

There was no danger for Yun Shimo to come here. In just half a day, he had almost destroyed the face of a vast mountain.

There was too much surging power inside him, so he released some of the energy and refined it. That was the right way to do it.
