Zhang Fei - The Abandoned Son

Chapter 1525: A Month Passed

Shang Luohu looked at Zhang Xiaolong [3] in disbelief. "What do you mean by that?"

"This universe and everything in it are formed by Yin and Yang, be it humans, demons, beasts, or everything else." Shang Luohu and Shang Xueli understood the concept of Yin and Yang, but they still did not comprehend the significance of the lotus. "The giant Yin-Yang Lotus is the embodiment of Yin and Yang in this universe, and this universe will be destroyed if the lotus weakens. It happened once in this domain, and the balance between Yin and Yang almost collapsed when the lotus weakened, which led to mass destruction and extinction."

"Then—" Shang Luohu stopped talking when she saw Yin Lianhua and Yang Lianhua appear above Zhang Xiaolong [3]. "Who are they?"

"They are the spirits of the giant Ying-Yang Lotus." Zhang Xiaolong [3] looked up at the two. "The male spirit is Yang Lianhua, and the female spirit is Yin Lianhua. The lotus gave birth to them to maintain the balance between Yin and Yang. Everything went smoothly, and Yin and Yang became balanced again to this day. Unfortunately, the lotus continued to weaken, so it brought us here because it needs our Yin and Yang to restore itself; otherwise, this universe will be destroyed if the lotus weakens and disappears."

"Huh? How could there be a disturbance in the balance between Yin and Yang? Does that mean the lotus will absorb our Yin and Yang dry?"

"No," Zhang Xiaolong [3] denied with a shake of his head. "The lotus will never absorb our Yin and Yang dry, and it will only absorb a little of both from us so we can recover our bodies. My wives and I spent some time here, and I’m still alive today, so you don’t need to worry about that. If the lotus has had enough of absorbing our Yin and Yang, it will release us, and we can go back out."

Shang Luohu was skeptical about it, but she could feel that the lotus only absorbed a small amount of her yin qi at a time, so it didn’t have much of an impact on her. "How long will this lotus absorb the yin and yang in our bodies? If I leave my domain for too long, Shang Zhui and the others will worry about me, and they will go to your domain to look for me. Moreover, my husband will come out of his seclusion at any time, and he will be furious if he can’t find me in our domain."

"I can’t confirm that." Zhang Xiaolong [3] thought for a moment. "I will ask Tian Shuixiang to contact Shang Zhui and inform him about your situation, so that old man should not worry about you. As for your husband—"

"You don’t need to worry about that." They looked at Yang Lianhua. "We will know when the Asura Demon God will come out of his seclusion, and the lotus will release this woman before that. That way, you can send her back to her domain, and her husband will not create chaos in your sect."

Zhang Xiaolong [3] nodded to him. "Please tell me when the Asura Demon God comes out of his seclusion, and I will immediately send his wife back to their domain. After all, he is still too strong for me, so I would rather not have problems with him now, which will only harm me."

"Yes." Thereafter, Yang Lianhua and Yin Lianhua disappeared from their sights.

Zhang Xiaolong [3] spoke to Shang Luohu again. "You don’t have to worry anymore, right? For now, let the giant Yin-Yang Lotus absorb your yin qi, and it will release you once the two spirits detect your husband’s movements. As for Shang Zhui, my other clone has already asked Tian Shuixiang to contact him, so he should be able to control the situation in your domain."

"I hope so." Shang Luohu inwardly sighed because she was uncomfortable being naked in front of another man, but fortunately, Zhang Xiaolong [3] did not look at her at all, giving her some relief. She looked at her daughter. "Xueli, please tell me about your life after you are free."

Shang Xueli looked at Zhang Xiaolong [3] first, but he didn’t say anything to her. She began telling her mother about her life after she was freed from the Celestial Demon Race, but she didn’t mention the training space or anything related to it.

Tianshi Shengjie was at the lake in the eastern area of ​​the Ashen Lotus Monastery, and she was shocked when she felt that the qi inside was much stronger than it had been a few months ago. She wanted to join the female ice phoenixes in the lake, but a gate suddenly opened beside her, and she knew that Zhang Fei had opened it to pick her up.

Tianshi Shengjie wanted to try cultivating in the lake with the female phoenixes, but Zhang Fei’s training space was much more beneficial for her, especially since she could cultivate and train at the same time. She canceled her intention and immediately entered the training space, where she started practicing with the others inside.

In his room in the Slaughter Blood Domain, Shang Zhui sighed to himself after he heard a voice message from his son, Tian Shuixiang, telling him that Shang Luohu was fine and was spending time with Shang Xueli.

Although he wasn’t sure about their situation, Shang Zhui was relieved that Shang Luohu was fine, and he was also happy that she could see Shang Xueli again. However, he was worried that Shang Zhanluo would suddenly come out of his seclusion and be unable to find his wife, which would cause major problems.

Shang Zhui walked to the window of his room and looked far away. "I hope my empress will return before my emperor comes out of his seclusion, or he will lead us to attack the Moonlit Passion Temple. I know that Zhang Fei is strong, but he can’t possibly protect his sect from my emperor’s wrath, and the casualties will be enormous if that happens. Moreover, not only his sect but also my asura demon race will suffer losses, particularly if Empress Huo takes action to defend them."

Shang Zhui let out a soft sigh before informing the other four asura guardians about their empress, and he told them that she was in seclusion elsewhere, asking them not to worry about her.

Shang Dongzhu, who knew about Shang Luohu’s departure, did not really believe Shang Zhui’s words. He thought that their empress had fallen into Zhang Fei’s hands, and he deliberately captured her to pressure their emperor.

Shang Dongzhu wanted to report the incident to Shang Zhanluo, but he couldn’t approach his seclusion chamber without his permission, so he waited for his emperor to summon him.

Time passed quickly, and a month had already passed. The giant Yin-Yang Lotus finally released Shang Luohu, but it didn’t release Shang Xueli. "Mother, you must return to our domain first, or my father will be furious if he can’t find you there."

"Yes." Shang Luohu nodded at her daughter before looking at Zhang Xiaolong [3]. "Please take good care of my daughter and please send me back to my domain now because I’ve been gone too long."

"Don’t worry, I guarantee nothing will happen to your daughter." Zhang Xiaolong [3] opened the gate to the Slaughter Blood Domain. "Shang Zhui and the others must be worried about you, so you should return to your domain now, and I will take you to see your daughter again another time."

"Take care of yourself, Xueli. I will wait for your father to finish his seclusion, and I will talk to him about you after."

Shang Xueli shook her head at her mother. "Mother, I also want to return to your side, but you must not tell my father that I’m with Zhang Fei, or he’ll lead the others to attack the Moonlit Passion Temple. The important thing is that you know that I’m fine, so you don’t need to worry about me, and we’ll be together again when the time comes."

Shang Luohu was also aware of this, but she wanted to be reunited with her daughter as soon as possible because they had been separated for too long. "Alright, I won’t say anything to your father, and I’ll wait for you to return to our side."

"Yes, Mother." Shang Luohu sighed softly and went straight into the gate, which was immediately closed by Zhang Xiaolong [3]. "How long will the lotus absorb our soul power?"

Zhang Xiaolong [3] shook his head at her. "We can only wait for the lotus to finish by itself, and I will take you back to my training space after that."

"I see." Shang Xueli nodded in understanding. "How are you going to convince my father to side with you?"

"Haish." Zhang Xiaolong [3] let out a disappointed sigh hearing that. "Your father is too stubborn, and he has ambitions to become the ruler of all the demon races, so it won’t be easy to win him over to my side. For now, I don’t have a solution for that, and I will focus on building my strength first, so I can face your father in the future."

Even though they had been separated for a long time, Shang Xueli remembered her father’s character by heart, and Zhang Xiaolong [3] would not be able to convince him without showing his strength. "Have you never thought about dual cultivating with me?"
