Chapter 2460 - 2458: Xuan Zhiruo
"It is said that Di Shitian has fully inherited his ancestor’s bloodline power and talent, even completely mastering the True Sunfire.""His strength stands unchallenged in the Life and Death Realm, and he is even striving to reach the Domination Realm. Once successful, his potential in the future would be immeasurable."
Xuan Ruo said.
"What does this have to do with the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe?"
Meng’er spoke.
"It indeed has a connection because this Di Shitian has taken a liking to one of the women in our tribe and wants to make her his woman."
Xuan Ruo said.
"Oh, who is the woman he fancies?"
Meng’er inquired.
"This woman is my daughter, named Xuan Zhiruo, and she is currently the most talented among the younger generation of the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe, being a Water Spirit Body, cultivating the techniques left by Lady Xuan Nu."
"Initially, I planned for her to become the next leader of the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe. But now that Lady Xuan Nu has returned, the position of the clan leader naturally belongs to Lady Xuan Nu."
Xuan Ruo said.
"No, although I’ve returned, I will not become the leader of the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe again. You all will decide who the leader should be, but I do wish to meet your daughter, Xuan Zhiruo!"
Meng’er said.
"I will call for her immediately!"
Xuan Ruo said.
"Does she not agree to marry Di Shitian?"
Meng’er asked.
"That’s right, she indeed doesn’t like that Di Shitian and has no desire to marry him, because Zhiruo is somewhat aloof in temperament, leading to this reaction."
"However, this Di Shitian is very fond of Zhiruo and refuses to give up. The Diyi Divine Clan has also started to pressure us, wanting Zhiruo to marry Di Shitian."
Xuan Ruo spoke solemnly.
"The Diyi Divine Clan dares to pressure our Nine Heavens Holy Tribe, where do they get the nerve?"
Meng’er’s expression darkened.
"Because the Diyi Divine Clan has an ancestor who stepped into the Half-Step Reincarnation Realm, their actual strength now surpasses ours, which emboldens them!"
Xuan Ruo explained.
"Hmph, just because they birthed a strong one at the Half-Step Reincarnation, they think they can freely pressure the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe?"
Meng’er’s face darkened, speaking coldly.
At this moment, a graceful silhouette walked in slowly.
The figure wore a long white dress, with flowing long hair, exuding an ethereal aura, like an orchid in a secluded valley.
This graceful silhouette gave an impression of flawlessness. Her black hair danced lightly, long lashes quivered, eyes seemed misted with a watery sheen, red lips and jade teeth sparkled with a crystalline sheen.
Her neck was slender, her skin like jade, delicate features, an exquisite face, her ethereal figure providing a sense of immaculate grace and perfection.
Not just in appearance but even in temperament, she was extraordinary, above worldly matters, causing others to feel ashamed in comparison, as if all the world’s beauty dimmed before her.
This woman was nearly a match for Meng’er, though she lacked Meng’er’s unique aura of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady.
This woman was clearly Xuan Ruo’s daughter, Xuan Zhiruo, the next heir of the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe, whose strength had reached the Life-Death Realm Seventh Level, comparable to the strength of the Martial Alliance’s Young Master.
It was evident that the foundation of this Imperial Clan was deep, not inferior to the Nine Heavens Tribe’s strength, especially since Xuan Zhiruo was a special Water Spirit Body.
With the cultivation technique left by the Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady and the full support of the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe, she achieved her current level.
"Zhiruo, this is Lady Xuan Nu of the Nine Heavens!"
Xuan Ruo promptly said upon seeing Xuan Zhiruo.
"Are you Lady Xuan Nu of the Nine Heavens?"
A slight ripple appeared on Xuan Zhiruo’s indifferent face, eyes showing a trace of surprise as she looked at Meng’er.
"That’s right!"
Meng’er nodded.
"I will surpass you!"
Xuan Zhiruo’s words astonished everyone in the palace.
Xuan Ruo immediately changed his expression, quickly admonishing his daughter: "Zhiruo, what are you saying? Don’t speak recklessly, this is Lady Xuan Nu, mind your manners!"
"It’s alright!"
Meng’er said with a smile, looking at Xuan Zhiruo.
"What do you want to surpass me in?"
Meng’er asked.
"I want to surpass your former strength. I want to replace you and become the new Nine Heavens Mysterious Lady!"
Xuan Zhiruo’s expression was aloof, her gaze fixed firmly on Meng’er.
Her words caused Xuan Ruo and the present Nine Heavens Holy Tribe’s ancestors and elders to change their expressions, looking extremely displeased.
"Zhiruo, hold your tongue, do you know what you’re saying? This is outrageous, apologize to Lady Xuan Nu immediately!"
Xuan Ruo admonished, while the ancestors of the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe looked at Xuan Zhiruo with angry expressions.
"Indeed, very ambitious!"
Meng’er said with a smile, not upset at all.
"Lady Xuan Nu, it’s my failure in educating Zhiruo that led her to speak such words, please forgive her, Lady Xuan Nu!"
Xuan Ruo bowed to Meng’er.
"It’s nothing, I’m not irreplaceable. I’m glad the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe has such an ambitious talent; only with such mindset can the tribe achieve greater success!"
Meng’er spoke, looking at Xuan Zhiruo: "Work hard, I believe you will surpass me in the future, and then you will be the new leader of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Clan!"
"However, I don’t like Di Shitian and don’t want to marry him. I just want to focus on my cultivation!"
Xuan Zhiruo said.
"Rest assured, within our Nine Heavens Holy Tribe, disciples are free to pursue their desires; no one can force you, not even the Diyi Divine Clan. Just focus on your cultivation, I look forward to the day you surpass me!"
Meng’er said softly.
"Then I’ll take my leave!"
Xuan Zhiruo turned and left after speaking.
"Lady Xuan Nu..."
Xuan Ruo looked at Meng’er with a heavy heart, and the latter waved her hand.
"It’s alright, I admire her. Inform them, if anyone from the Diyi Divine Clan comes, tell them not to disturb the Nine Heavens Holy Tribe again, or we will not be courteous."
"I have just awakened my memory and need some time to restore my strength; unless absolutely necessary, do not disturb me!"
Meng’er spoke solemnly.
"Understood!"
Xuan Ruo and the others responded.
"Also, have someone keep an eye on any news about Xiao Yifeng, the current number one on the Dragon List, and do not miss any details!"
Meng’er continued.
"Understood!"
Although Xuan Ruo was puzzled, he nodded.
West Region, Ancient Sect Brahma Heavenly Sect—
A series of resonant Buddhist chants echoed within the Brahma Heavenly Sect.
Most people in the Ancient Realm believe the most powerful force of the Buddha Dao is the Buddha Sect, but only truly top-level experts know.
In the West Region, the Buddha Sect is the most dominant in appearance, while the Brahma Heavenly Sect is the true leader of the Buddha Dao in the West Region.
In a mysterious hall within the Brahma Heavenly Sect, an emaciated old monk, seated before a Buddha statue, fingers holding a string of Buddha beads, eyes closed, muttered chants in Sanskrit.
