The woman named Lu appeared to be in her thirties. She dressed in old-fashioned clothes and wore her hair in a simple bun.
Hearing this, she smiled and said, “There is a resemblance, but it’s unlikely, Matriarch. I’ve never heard Saint Venerable mention having a daughter living in Siam. If she were truly his heir, I’m sure Saint Venerable would have already brought her home.”
Lu didn’t utter the last part: Moreover, this girl was exceptionally beautiful. Even though Saint Venerable himself was quite handsome, it would take an extraordinary woman to produce such a stunning daughter. Even the cold-hearted Abyss Divine Venerable was tempted and released the Realm Mobilization Edict.
“Ah, yes,” the old woman sighed sadly as she carefully tucked the scroll away.
As the mother of Yun Tianyi, she fully understood that the direct bloodline of the Yun Family was truly celestial. It was impossible for an ordinary woman to bear Tianyi’s child. Even if it were somehow possible, such a birth would leave the ordinary woman exhausted and drained.
She had been regarded as an exceptionally talented cultivator in her time, but after giving birth to Tianyi, her cultivation stagnated at the Void Darkness Stage.
This was because the essence, blood, and spiritual root within her had been absorbed by the child growing inside her.
Though she didn’t regret losing the chance to advance for the sake of bearing Tianyi, he had always felt deep remorse. In his quest to make amends, he went to great lengths to procure the divine fruit [Lingsui] to extend her life.
However, the decline of life force and the passage of time were forces beyond human control. Even Tianyi couldn’t stop her aging. Even though taking [Lingsui] gave her several hundred years of lifespan, she still slowly approached the end of her existence.
God Domain was a place accessible only to those who had transcended to the Completeness Stage. Anyone else who entered would be torn apart by the realm’s chaotic energies.
As a result, Matriarch Yun had been separated from Yun Tianyi for many years. She had always hoped he would find someone he loved and have an heir, believing that having a family might help alleviate his future loneliness.
However, this remained nothing more than a distant hope.
Before Matriarch Yun could fully tuck away the scroll, the door to the room was pushed open, and a girl in a red outfit stepped inside.
She appeared to be in her teens, with bright eyes, a dazzling smile, and a strikingly beautiful face. Her expression was cold and arrogant.
But upon seeing Matriarch Yun, her face immediately softened into a warm smile. “Grandma, why are you hiding away in here? Uncle and Aunt have prepared some special delicacies for you to try!”
“Be a good girl, Feifei.” Matriarch Yun smiled warmly, gently stroking the girl’s hair. “You mentioned you would be heading to the Heavenly Medical Valley in the next few days. Why haven’t you left yet?”
“Feifei wants to stay with Grandma and spend more time together. Doesn’t Grandma want me to keep her company?” The girl spoke in a sweet, playful tone, causing Matriarch Yun’s smile to widen.
Lu observed the lovely interaction between the grandmother and granddaughter, then gently shook her head.
The girl named Yun Feifei was a cadet branch’s illegitimate daughter, originally living in dire poverty. One day, after being beaten by her legitimate sister, Matriarch Yun happened to witness it and brought her into the family.
Yun Feifei was very sweet-talking and well-behaved, attending to Matriarch Yun with great care. Seeing this, Saint Venerable Tianyi decided to keep her as a companion for the old lady. He took her under his wing, officially adopting her as his ward.
