    “What is this bead?” Yu Wan reached out and picked it up. She flipped it around and did not find anything strange. “Is it a Night-Luminescent Pearl?”


    Yu Wan brought it under the table to take a look. “It’s not bright. Grandma, take a look.”


    Grandma took the bead that Yu Wan had mentioned. During this period of time, he had almost gone through the Sikong family’s library and understood much about the history of the Sikong family and the Sorcerer n. The moment he held the bead in his hand, he almost immediately determined that it was a Sorcerer Stone.


    “What’s a Sorcerer Stone? Like the Saintess Stone, is it also a stone to test the power of bloodline among the sorcerers?” Yu Wan asked in confusion.


    “No.” Grandma shook his head. “The inheritance of the Sorcerer n doesn’t rely on bloodline, so there’s no stone to test bloodlines. Sorcerer Stones can be used as currency in the Sorcerer n, but I don’t think this Sorcerer Stone is an ordinary Sorcerer Stone.”


    “Is it unusual?” Yu Wan stared at the bead strangely. No matter how she looked at it, it was a luminous pearl that could not light up.


    Little Sly Jiang took the bead and raised her hand to smash it on the table. After a while, the “luminous pearl that doesn’t shine” trembled and shone.


    Everyone was speechless again.


    After the bead shone, a faint scene appeared inside. After carefully distinguishing it, it actually looked like a map.


    This time, Yu Wan finally believed that it was not an ordinary bead. Back then, someone had also made a map into it when they made it, but only by shining could the map hidden inside be revealed.


    “Is this a map to the Sorcerer n?” Yu Wan asked excitedly.


    “Since it’s hidden in the Sorcerer Stone, it should be.” A trace of excitement that was difficult to suppress shed across Grandma’s eyes. Although Yan Jiuchao had not shown any signs of the poison acting up during this period of time, this was the most dangerous situation. If it was like when he was in Nanzhao, he would need a medicinal bath and acupuncture every day to suppress the poison in his body. At the very least, it meant that they still had a way to suppress the poison. But now, Yan Jiuchao’s poison was either not acting up, or once it did, there was no possibility of suppressing it.


    Grandma handed the bead to Shadow Six. “Go draw the map.”


    On this trip to the Nether Capital, not only did they find the Saintess’ blood, but they also obtained a map to the Sorcerer n by a freakbination of factors. This trip was not in vain. Back then, when Sikong Ye wanted to dig out half of his inner core for Little Rakshasa, Grandma and the others actually did not agree, So what if they let the Rakshasa King dig out all of his blood core? So what if an evil entity that was going to be devoured by the Blood Demon Technique sooner orter died? Now, it seemed that it was all thanks to his reluctance. Of course, he was not doing it all for the Rakshasa King. He was doing it more for Little Rakshasa. His half of his inner core could prevent it from being devoured by the Blood Demon Technique in the future. The good karma that was nted produced good karma.


    The ancestor was still the ancestor.


    The situation in the Nether Capital had already stabilized. Yu Wan went to the Lan family and sent Zi Yan and her nephew back to Madam Lan’s side. The truth of what happened back then had already been revealed. Madam Lan and her sons had been framed by Lan Jiao. Lan Jiao was given a cup of poisonous wine. Madam Lan was weed back to the n and became the head of the Lan family again.


    Madam Lan grabbed Yu Wan’s hand gratefully. “Thank you. Sister and the others can finally smile in theherworld.”


    “These are all what I should do,” Yu Wan said with a smile. “Help me thank Jiuchao too,” Madam Lan said.


    “Okay.”


    “By the way, there’s one more thing about your great-grandmother,” Madam Lan said.


    “Saintess Lan Yi? What happened to her?” Yu Wan asked.


    Madam Lan hesitated for a moment and looked at Yu Wan with a firm gaze. “I’ve wanted to say these words to you many days ago. Since your great-grandmother and Ancestor Sikong like each other, I think this memorial tablet should be set in the Nether Mountain.”


    “If we set the memorial tablet in the Nether Mountain…” Yu Wan did not finish her sentence.


    Madam Lan understood what she meant and nodded. “It means that she’s part of the Nether Mountain. I think this was also her wish when she was alive. She was born as the Saintess of the Lan family and had carried too much for the Lan family. When she was alive, she didn’t live ording to her wishes. At least after she died, I don’t want her to be restrained by the ancestral teachings and family rules.”


    After reuniting with Madam Lan for so long, Madam Lan’s pride and unyielding will far surpassed ordinary women. However, what really made Yu Wan feel that she had never been stronger was this moment.


    In terms of bloodline, she was inferior to Saintess Lan Yi. In terms of martial arts and medical skills, she was inferior to her sister. However, it was precisely such a slightly mediocre woman in the Lan family who did something that all the Lan family members did not have the courage to do.


    Yu Wan took the memorial tablet and gently hugged Madam Lan. “Grandaunt, you’re really amazing.”


    After returning from the Lan family, Yu Wan went to Sikong Ye’s room and handed the memorial tablet to him.


    Sikong Ye hugged the memorial tablet and was in a daze for a long time.


    They were about to leave the Nether Capital. Yu Wan packed her things overnight. Although she had only been in the Nether Capital for two months, she had received a lot of treasures. Putting aside the Weapon Tome that Qing Yan and Yue Gou had brought back, the Sikong family and the Lan family had both given her a bunch of good things. She had brought all the useful things along the way. The rest was left in the Nether Mountain. After all, the Nether Mountain was her home.


    Yu Wan first finished packing Yan Jiuchao’s clothes and began to pack the children’s. She had onlv been in the Nether Mountain for less than twentv davs, but the three little fellows had gained weight from their great-grandfather’s feeding. Their clothes were almost worn out. Ever since Little Rakshasa could eat normal food, he had grown a little.


    The four little ones were about to buy new clothes.


    Yu Wan was wondering if she should go down the mountain tomorrow morning when she heard a knock on the door.


    The door was ajar. They could have juste in. Who was so polite?


    Yu Wan put down the half-folded clothes in her hand and walked over to open the ajar door. However, she was surprised to find that the person who came was the Rakshasa King. The Rakshasa King was dressed in a dark robe and was tall. Having lost half a blood core, he had sessfully escaped the control of the Blood Demon Technique. He still needed to take blood pills, but he no longer needed human blood.


    He was carrying the sleeping Little Rakshasa.


    Little Rakshasa and the little ck eggs yed crazily for the entire day and fell asleep in the bathtub. The four of them had their own hut and should be sleeping soundly on the bed at this time. Why did the Rakshasa King carry Little Rakshasa alone?


    Yu Wan was puzzled, but she still invited the Rakshasa King in.


    “Please sit,” Yu Wan said as she pointed at the chair.


    “Did I disturb you?” The Rakshasa King asked. After being imprisoned in the Sang Family’s forbidden ground for many years, he had almost forgotten how to speak. Aftering to the Nether Mountain to stay with Sikong Ye for a few days, his strength had yet to recover, but hisnguage had finally recovered. Yu Wan shook her head. “No, why did Senior Sang bring Little Rakshasa over?”


    The Rakshasa King paused and was in a difficult position. However, he had no choice but to make up his mind. “I’m here to bid you farewell.”


    “Farewell?” Yu Wan looked at him and then at Little Rakshasa in his arms. She did not expect him to say such a thing. “Where… where… are you going?”


    “I know that I’vemitted serious sins. I don’t want to be a Blood Rakshasa for the rest of my life.” The Rakshasa King looked at the sleeping little fellow in his arms and a doting gaze shed across his eyes. “I want to bring him around. Although he’s a young Rakshasa, he has half of the inner core of a normal expert in his body. He has half a chance of bing a normal person. I want to raise him well.”


    Yu Wan’s throat ached as she looked reluctantly at Little Rakshasa in his arms.


    “Do you want to hug him again?” The Rakshasa King asked Yu Wan.


    Yu Wan nodded and reached out to Little Rakshasa.


    The Rakshasa King handed the little fellow to Yu Wan.


    It was unknown if it was because he felt Yu Wan’s aura in his sleep, but Little Rakshasa hugged Yu Wan’s neck affectionately.


    Yu Wan looked at his sleeping face and smiled slightly. She lowered her head and kissed his forehead.


    Although she wanted to keep him, she understood that he was the Rakshasa


    King’s child. This had nothing to do with bloodline. From the moment the Rakshasa King saved him from the blood pool and fed him with blood to extend his life, he was already the Rakshasa King’s deepest bond.


    “When are you leaving?” Yu Wan asked.


    “Now,” the Rakshasa King said.


    Yu Wan suddenly tightened her grip on Little Rakshasa. “Can’t you leave tomorrow morning?”


    “I’m afraid that he won’t be able to bear to leave when he wakes up.” It wasn’t that the Rakshasa King hadn’t thought of going to the Sorcerer n with them, but with his current cultivation, he would probably be a burden to them. This trip to the Sorcerer n concerned Yan Jiuchao’s life and death. He couldn’t let anything happen.


    “I’ll send you off,” Yu Wan said.


    The Rakshasa King nodded.


    Yu Wan carried Little Rakshasa and walked down the Nether Mountain with the Rakshasa King out of the Sikong family’s house.


    At the entrance of the Sikong Manor, the Rakshasa King stopped in his tracks. “Let’s stop here. It’s gettingte. You’re pregnant. Go back and rest early.” Yu Wan looked reluctantly at Little Rakshasa and was about to hand him over.


    The Rakshasa King said, “Give him a name.”


    “Xiao Zhao.” Yu Wan looked at Little Rakshasa lovingly and said, “His name is Xiao Zhao.”


    “He’s called Xiao Zhao,” the Rakshasa King murmured.


    Yu Wan held back the strong reluctance in her heart and slowly handed Xiao Zhao to the Rakshasa King.


    There were no moon or stars in the night sky tonight. Every street in the Nether Capital was dark.


    The Rakshasa King carried Xiao Zhao and walked on the dark street. Suddenly, the street lit up piece by piece with the Saintess Stones and spread at an unbelievable speed. In almost the blink of an eye, the Saintess Stone of the entire Nether Capital lit up.


    The Nether Capital had never been so beautiful. It had be a city of light.


    Xiao Zhao, someone is sending you off again.


    The Rakshasa King smiled and carried Xiao Zhao forward without looking back..
