Eternal Life Starts as a Hunter-Chapter 240 - 114: Li Yuan Gazes North, Mother and Daughter Meet in the Ghost Realm, Envoy Sent to Beijiang Prefecture

Chapter 240: Chapter 114: Li Yuan Gazes North, Mother and Daughter Meet in the Ghost Realm, Envoy Sent to Beijiang Prefecture

Wearing clothes like this, he wouldn’t be mistaken for a Martial Artist.

...

On the other side...

Li Yuan brought the five-year-old Xiaozhao to the Black Market Ghost Realm under the cover of night.

Mother and daughter met; Xiaozhao burst into tears, but the countless crows watched the scene calmly.

Lady Yan couldn’t touch her, but she made her sit down, starting to tell her things and also began to teach her some skills.

Xiaozhao’s birth was indeed influenced by Feng’Er.

The Yin Qi on Feng’Er was extremely heavy; it tried to restrain itself as much as possible, not affecting Yan Yu or anyone else. However, the child in Yan Yu’s womb was entirely defenseless, who was affected during the gestation process, resulting in a natural mutation and becoming Jade Remains.

And the way Xiaozhao mutated was actually similar to Feng’Er.

So, to some extent, she is a Jade Remains wielding a "weakened version of Feng’Er’s power."

On the other hand, she also inherited something from her father.

Li Yuan’s Beast Taming Skill is quite peculiar, especially the Bird Taming Skill, which leans towards being skeletal.

Thus, this skill was attracted and fell upon Feng’Er.

In a way, Xiaozhao is indeed a monstrous offspring born from Li Yuan, Yan Yu, and the Black Market Evil Ghost—a unique existence like Lady Yan of this moment, an existence that cannot be replicated.

Now Yan Yu intends to teach Xiaozhao the power of Feng’Er.

"Compress the crows, let them become part of your body, even become your pupils.

Just like... this..."

Lady Yan in White Clothes focused her mind, and her face and body began to crack, with white-clad female ghosts crawling out.

Xiaozhao blinked her glassy white jade eyes, watching closely, then burst into laughter.

That was genuine laughter.

What others deem strange and terrifying was warm as home to her.

And her mother’s frightening appearance wasn’t scary to her either.

She mimicked her mother’s manner, beginning to manipulate the crows.

Lady Yan taught patiently.

The bright moon hung in the sky, and the contest between the white-clad female ghost and the Human-Skinned Ghost Servant continued.

Li Yuan, his Shadow Blood not yet recovered, could not expend much strength and could only watch in silence.

Behind him were the whispering mother and daughter.

By dawn, as Lady Yan’s conscious time was almost over, he took Xiaozhao away.

For several days, this continued.

Gradually, the initial warmth when mother and daughter met began to "shatter."

The gentle Lady Yan started to scold her daughter for being foolish during teaching.

Xiaozhao also started to pout and called her "bad mother," then sulked in Li Yuan’s arms, acting as though she only cared for her father.

But after a while, the mother and daughter reconciled as if nothing had happened.

This warm scene made Li Yuan more eager to help Yan Yu complete the fusion soon.

By then, he wouldn’t have to run around every day, for Lady Yan could, like Feng’Er before, pull them into the Dream House once he and Xiaozhao slept, for a reunion.

The Dream House was still somewhere on Ghost Street, just in the form before the fusion... And who knows what changes it might have after the fusion.

The cage was opened.

Two White Sparrows fluttered their wings and flew out.

Fang Jianlong breathed a sigh of relief; this counted as completing one of the Ancestor’s tasks. Next, he needed to find Yan Mu.

But where was Yan Mu? He didn’t know.

However, before he came, he found out about a force subordinate to Cyan Wood Hall—the Nongyi Sect.

The Nongyi Sect is a rather unique force.

The upper and lower levels of this force are all farmers who practice martial arts through farming.

Fang Jianlong planned to go there to gather information.

The Nongyi Sect is not a small force, occupying four counties among the thirty-six counties of Beijiang Prefecture—East Spring County, Xichuan County, Hubei County, and Niuwei County.

It could be said that the Nongyi Sect is an undisputed overlord in Beijiang Prefecture. Compared to this sect, the Blood Saber Sect is far weaker. Moreover, the Nongyi County might be one of those grand sects that has never lost contact with Divine Wood Hall, even during times of chaos.

At the thought of this, Fang Jianlong, a local genius, felt a deep unease, but recalling the Ancestor’s task, he calmed down and began assigning tasks to the accompanying disciples.

And in the invisible sky above them, the White Sparrow spread its wings, imprinting the image of this unfamiliar land into its eyes.

...

...

Several days later...

"Darling, darling..."

The boss’s wife called in a sweet voice, but her chest rose and fell rapidly, eyes rolled back, seemingly about to faint.

Li Yuan hastily stopped, gently embracing her from behind, carefully wiping the sweat from her forehead, and spoke nothing, just holding her tenderly.

After a long while, the boss’s wife calmed down and smiled bitterly, "Without Sister Yan around, I indeed end up in a complete mess."

"You’re the one managing Hengwu Restaurant, Baihua Winery, and the Ningyu Commerce Association affairs, while also taking care of the child. Even when you came here today, it was in secret... who wouldn’t be exhausted?" Li Yuan tapped her nose.

Though she seemed so seductive in bed, outside she was truly someone of high status. With a few words, she could decide countless matters. But not only does she have to manage those, she also has to take care of the child and her husband, how could she not be tired?

The boss’s wife leaned compliantly against him, saying, "A little tiredness is alright since it’s not for outsiders."

Li Yuan hugged her tightly, their bodies pressed together, feeling the warmth transmitted through each other’s skin.

The beautiful woman suddenly showed an apologetic look, and said, "I’ll call Xiaozhu, let her join..."

"Let’s wait a little longer." Li Yuan said.

After a while, the beautiful woman fell asleep from exhaustion.

Li Yuan didn’t wake her up, instead closed his eyes, allowing his vision to expand across the Northern Land which lay across a river.

The White Sparrow flying on and on, observing the "data" of this vast land, also noticing the Fang Jianlong’s carriage moving along the winding country roads below.

Ahead, awaited the Nongyi Sect, subordinate to the Divine Wood Hall.
