Chapter 231 Gravestone without Inscriptions

“Where am I… Jiawen!” Lyu Liang woke up from his faint, and discovered that Liu Jiawen, who was originally in his arms, had disappeared!

All the injuries in his body were still there, but the only thing that made him a little happy was that the Tianxuan Holy Rattan seemed to be recovering. At least he could that feel his injuries were slowly healing. Of course, it was an extremely slow recovery, and it had obviously been suppressed by some strange power. As for the aura of the chaotic divine beasts and the Spirit Swallowing Bugs, he still could not feel them.

At this time, Lyu Liang stood up and began to observe the surrounding conditions.

It seemed to be a land of graves too, but looked more normal than the previous one.

An assortment of tombstones were arranged in rows and lines, which were inscribed with different names. There should be more than a thousand tombs here!

When Lyu Liang looked at the inscriptions on these tombstones, he gradually discovered that all the tombstones seemed to belong to the family of “Zhao”.

For example, the largest tombstone in the first row was inscribed with “family leader, Zhao Xuangong”, and around that were inscriptions such as “Wife, Zhao Liushi”, “Eldest son, Zhao Youcheng”, “Second eldest son, Zhao Qingshuang” and so on.

“Can it be that the weirdness of this place is connected to this Zhao family?” A tinge of doubt flashed into Lyu Liang’s mind unconsciously, and then he went around to see the other tombstones.

There were many tombstones, basically about 50 in a row. They were ranked according to the status of the deceased in the Zhao family.

After a few hours, Lyu Liang reached the last row, where the tombstones were inscribed with names of low status, such as “Zhang Wangshi”, “Lu Liushi” and so on.

When Lyu Liang came to the last row of the tombstones, he was surprised to find that after the last row of the tombstones, there was an inconspicuous little grave with a monument standing on it. But somehow, there were no inscriptions on the monument!

When Lyu Liang was pondering over this, he was suddenly overcome by vertigo. Then, before he lost his consciousness, he seemed to faintly hear a woman’s voice, which was filled with bitterness and sadness, “Has your mother done something wrong… ”

………………………………

Hearing the loud cries of a baby, several people dressed in gorgeous costumes, who were waiting outside a large house, suddenly smiled, which was a change from their originally anxious looks.

“She has given birth already! It’s a big fat boy! And he actually has the Spiritual Root of Four Properties! Congratulations to Zhao Ancestor and the young master!” A woman who looked like a maternity nurse rushed out of the courtyard, and shouted out this news. The whole yard erupted when they heard the news.

Numerous “congratulations” were issued, and the recipients were an gray-haired elder with a ruddy complexion who was standing nearest to the courtyard door, and a middle-aged man with bright eyes and arched eyebrows.

Later, the two men rushed into the yard. The next moment, they entered a luxurious room.

“Good! Good! Good! Thanks be for God’s blessings This son has an amazingly good Spiritual Root! In the future, he will definitely be an extraordinary person! I see, how about calling him Zhao Tianqi! Hahaha!” The elder’s face was flushed with happiness, and then, a golden light floated out of his hand, which gently surrounded the baby.

The man beside the elder, kept calm, but could not hide his excitement at the birth of the baby, judging from his slightly trembling shoulders. Later, though looking somewhat pale, the man went to the woman who was lying on the bed with a relieved smile, and held her hand gently, softly saying: “Linger, thanks for your hard work!”

The woman on the bed had a bright smile and said, “Don’t be so polite, my husband. Now that Qier is such a smart baby, I don’t feel as if I have suffered at all!”

Countless people outside the house were happy at the birth of this child. The baby who had stopped crying, suddenly had a surprised look in his eyes!

It was because Lyu Liang’s Divine Soul was in the baby’s body at the moment, and would completely control the baby’s thoughts and actions. Therefore, it was like a reincarnation of the memories of a past life!

In the following year, Lyu Liang had become calm again after experiencing some initial confusion. He gradually learned about the specific background information of the Zhao family that he had been born into.

It was a small city of the Human Clan at the junction of the world of humans and demons in the Chaotic World, in which there were cultivators and mortals.

No matter in terms of the strength of the cultivators and the possession of resources, the Zhao Family were impeccably in the first place, and hence were the city’s owner.

That elder head of the Zhao family, was called Zhao Xuangong, whose cultivation had reached the Peak of the Almighty Immortal period. Of course he was also the only one in this small city who could reach such a high level.

Lyu Liang’s parents here, the steady man and the woman on the bed, were Zhao Youcheng, the eldest son of the Zhao Family and his wife Liu Linger.

Of course, there were countless uncles and juniors that Lyu Liang failed to make out. Because there were too many relatives here, and the number of those who were from the immediate family had reached one hundred.

Lyu Liang knew that being born as Zhao Tianqi here, was not really a real reincarnation, and all this had to be related to the Zhao Family’s graveyard, that he had seen before in the weird place!

After figuring it out, Lyu Liang felt released. He also wanted to see what kind of chaos the originally notable Zhao Family had experienced in the past!

As a human being, of course he could feel affection. Although Zhao Tianqi actually had the soul of Lyu Liang, yet the heartfelt love and concern from his parents and clan would make him feel that he was a real core disciple of the Zhao Family at all times.

Especially for Zhao Youcheng and Liu Linger, Lyu Liang treated them like his real parents. Because of the unforgettable experience of his childhood, he had already made up his mind that no matter what led him to his experience now, at least as Zhao Tianqi, he would be a good son, who deserved the love from the Zhao Family!

Time flew by, in the twinkling of an eye.

Seven years later, Zhao Tianqi had become the most popular figure in the Zhao family!

Zhao Tianqi’s good cultivation talent was worthy of Lyu Liang’s inborn diligence. With the help of some panacea, he made Qi Refining at the age of three and made Foundation Establishment at the age of five. When he was just seven years old, he had successfully reached the threshold of the Early-stage of the Gold Core!

Genius! Absolute genius! It would not go too far to say that he was an evil genius!

This was the evaluation of Zhao Tianqi by all Zhao family members!

When he received countless praises and approval, Zhao Tianqi always maintained a calm and smiling face. The unpretentious and calm trait in him made many people feel that this was not a seven-year-old child.

At the age of ten, when Zhao Tianqi was at the peak of Gold Core stage, he was officially listed as the successor of Zhao family! Although Lyu Liang had deliberately slowed down the speed of cultivation, he could not cover up his radiant nature.

On the day he was appointed as the successor of the Zhao family, he was called to his grandfather’s room, along with his parents.

“Qier, although you are only ten years old, yet no matter in terms of tolerance or cultivation, you will definitely become the top figure of my Zhao family in the future! Now, I want to tell you a secret, which is one that only the successors of the family head can know! After you know it, you must make a vow to the sky that you will not tell it to anybody else, except the next successor!” This was the first time that Lyu Liang saw Zhao Xuangong being so serious. As for his parents, obviously they knew the importance of the secret, and looked equally serious.

When Zhao Tianqi nodded, Zhao Xuangong nodded too, and turned back to wave at the mirror which was about the height of one person, opposite them. The mirror gave off a golden light, which seemed to form a swirling entrance.

Later, the three adults took Zhao Tianqi into the whirlpool.

………………………………

At the same time, in a secluded place outside the Heavenly Devil hall in the jurisdiction of the Anye Clan, Xuanli Evil Moon looked at the sky, and blue light and green gas silently emerged from his body.

“It is him, absolutely him! Although I don’t know what happened, yet my feeling is definitely correct! Little swordie, after ten days, when my body has somewhat recovered, I must kill him here!” The original gracefulness in Xuanli Evil Moon’s face had totally disappeared, and it was now filled with a horrible killing intent.

“You made up your mind? You have violated the law of Heaven twice in a row. Do you still want to do it for the third time?! Even if you kill him, are you able to come out alive? I don’t know why you are doing this, and I don’t care about it at all. If you do decide, you can call me, and we will do it together! Go!” A cold voice was heard in the blue light, and then it disappeared.

Looking at the place where the blue light disappeared, a sense of guilt flashed over Xuanli Evil Moon’s face. He whispered: “I’m sorry, I don’t have time…”

……………………………………

In a secret crypt in the residence of the Tianluo Clan in the Devil Realm, Tianluo Linri, the head of the TianLuo Family led his three sons, to respectfully report to a white-robed youth, who had his hands clasped behind him, as they stood in front of him.

“Milord, the head of the Dark Night Family personally took his trusted subordinates to the Demon Tombs. He will meet Zhu Yu and Nie Qingyun after most two days, if nothing untoward happens. And then there will be a big fight! There was some trouble with the place where the guardian is now. If we are forced to fight, I am afraid…” Tianluo Linri had not finished speaking when Tian Luoxing who was behind him, coughed slightly, seemingly wanting to stop him.

The white-robed youth turned around and smilingly said, “Xiaoxing, what do you think of it? Just tell me. I have a close relationship with your family, so there’s no need to have any scruples.”

Tian Luoxing stepped out at this time, respectfully bowed to him and said, “This matter is related to the future of the Tianluo family in the Devil Realm, so I will put it directly! If there is anything wrong with my words, please disregard it, and tolerate my rudeness!”

Tian Luoxing sighed first, and then said something that greatly shocked the others, “If I am right, our mission is no longer to kill the guardian, but to protect the target that the guardian wants to kill!”

Those from the Tianluo Clan were all stunned at his words, but only the white-robed man nodded and stared at Tianluo Xing, as if he was thinking of something. He said lightly, “Go on! Speak out what you have guessed!”

The eyes of Tianluo Xing lit up and he continued, “In view of the ability of the Divine Envoy Milord, if you really want to kill a Guardian who has been injured by counterpower, you should have already started it! The reason why we are in such a situation at the point, is that you, milord, was stopped by one thing! Or, there is an important figure at the place where the Guardian is located now!”

Tianluo Xing paused and then looked at his father first. Seeing his father giving him the go-ahead, he then continued, “There are completely no secrets in the residence of the Anye Clan! As for a Guardian who is even not a Fairy Immortal, if we want to kill him, it will be as easy as winking! If your milord is worried about something, it must relate… ”

Suddenly, Tianluo Xing could not continue with his words, but looked blankly at the white-robed man. It was not that he did not want to continue, but he seemed to be restricted by an overwhelming force.

“Milord! Little Xing is too young to know the complexity of the world! He has no intention to perceive your secret, so please… ” Tianluo Linri was horrified and almost kneeled, with his other two sons. However, they were also lifted by a force. Even if they tried to kneel, they could not bend.

“Haha, good! I came out and found that you have such great talents! Very good! The Tianji Astrolabe hasn’t had a master for a long time, so you can go and try?” The white-robed man laughed and looked at him with a piercing gleam.

At this time, the strange power that had restrained Tianluo Xing disappeared. He trembled at the words and then directly kneeled to make kowtows “I will never betray the organization!”

Tianluo Linri’s eyes were filled with incredible excitement. This time he kneeled directly and said in a trembling voice, “Thanks, Divine Envoy Milord! Our Tianluo Clan will repay our gratitude at all cost!”

The white-robed man reverted to his usual cold demeanor, at this time. He waved his hand and said in a low voice, “Get up, it is most important that you get things done. Little Xing, you are correct, so you will arrange the action plan! The three guys from the Dark Night Family could never stop the attack from the mad Evil Moon, so ask Little Xian to take action first with his followers if necessary! Remember, do not retreat before Evil Moon is defeated!”
