Chapter 208: Mother Hua Yang
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
8 A.M, Fuzhou Branch, hospital ward.
Hua Yang was sitting by the bed. There was no chair under her bottom, as she floated in the air, silently staring at the boy who had been in a coma all night. After watching for a long time, she found that there was a shadow of Li Wuxiang in this excessively beautiful face. This face was a little like hers.
Great-Grandma told her that many years after her disappearance, Li Wuxiang was so disillusioned that he almost had to shave and become a monk. In the end, he was forced by Great-Grandma and had no choice. In order to continue the lineage of the Li family, he had no choice but to marry a Jiangnan woman, who was 50% similar to her. After that woman was pregnant, he was determined to enter the Great Deities Palace.
“You can’t let me go, even if you know that the both of us were not fated. You still found a woman who looks like me to take my place.” Hua Yang teared non-stop. The tears disappeared before they landed on the ground.
She put out her hand to touch Li Xianyu. When she touched his face, she retracted her hand. There was a flurry of complex emotions in her heart. She seemed to mistake him as Li Wuxiang, but also the absurd feeling that he seemed to be her son.
Great-Grandma was speechless.
She stood by the window, bathing in the warm sunshine, feeling a bit embarrassed.
She said these words, but they were all lies. Although Li Wuxiang didn’t have his son’s liberal behaviour, he was also a flirty guy. For some reasons, he couldn’t really behave liberally, so he gave the world a kind of illusion that “he was a playboy, but was actually a person who could love deeply.”
Li Wuxiang really loved Hua Yang, but this did not prevent him from loving his legitimate wife. Although, it was not known who the little bitch had married.
Great-Grandma knew those little secrets. Just like a mother, if she knew her son was a scumbag who bedded many women outside, she would still stand by his side without hesitation.
Hua Yang reminisced the past and was immersed in her sadness.
“It’s over. It’s most important to cherish the talents now,” Great-Grandma said.
“Is there anyone else I can cherish?” Hua Yang went to the window and bathed in the sunshine with her. “After so many years, I finally feel the sunshine on my face.”
Slime interjected, “Who is ‘the sunshine’?”
Hua Yang was puzzled.
Great-Grandma took out the glove silently and covered it.
Hua Yang looked at Cui Hua sleeping on the next bed, as well as Li Xianyu’s left arm. “What is it? Is it okay if it stays with Li Xianyu?”
Not long ago, she wanted to kill Li Xianyu, but now she began to worry about him.
“It has something to do with the Great Deities Palace. Do you remember the Demonic Priest, Wang Chen? It’s the treasure that he obtained from the Great Deities Palace... It should be called a curse. This guy has been pestering Demonic Priest all his life,” Great-Grandma said.
“Is it okay to keep it?” Hua Yang frowned.
“I don’t want to keep it. Even I can’t get rid of it completely.” Great-Grandma shook her head. “It’s not easy to get rid of the thing that even Demonic Priest couldn’t get rid of until he died. Moreover, it can absorb sperm and transform it into self-cultivation. It has a special effect.”
“After all, it’s just an unorthodox presence,” Hua Yang said curiously. “You really don’t know what Wuxiang obtained in the Great Deities Palace? At that time, he was already halfway in the Gokudo Path, so you should be fully inside. The both of you couldn’t safeguard against that thing?”
“Buddha Head stopped me. Besides, there are so many experts in the world at home and abroad. How can he not know what you know? When he did this, it meant that after that thing is known, with his strength and mine, we would not be able to stop those who covet the treasure.”
“What are you going to do afterwards?” Great-Grandma asked.
“Find a body without a master, then find my elder sister and those foreigners for revenge,” Hua Yang replied in a hateful tone.
That event changed her life. If she had not met with an accident, she would not have been suppressed for more than 30 years. She would not have disappeared. Li Wuxiang might have dismissed the idea of going to the Great Deities Palace. She and Li Wuxiang would have a perfect future. This young man lying on the bed would be her son.
This hatred was hard to dispel, even with water from the Yellow River.
Great-Grandma wanted to talk but stopped, as she frowned.
Seeing her like this, Hua Yang asked, “What’s the matter?”
Great-Grandma shook her head.
“What can’t be said?”
“In fact, it’s nothing,” said Great-Grandma with a sigh and a solemn expression. “You’ve been locked up for too long, and you don’t know what’s going on now. You know, the Great Deities Palace is going to open again.”
“So often?”
“Well, the key to the Great Deities Palace is full of spirits. The Great Deities Palace is responding to the key, which means it is about to open. In this coming storm, Li Xianyu is the first one to bear the brunt. After all, Li Wuxiang was the last one who entered the Great Deities Palace. Also, the world suspected that Li Wuxiang’s treasure had been left to his son. People all over the world are coveting him. If I didn’t sacrifice myself to protect him, would he be safe and sound until now? In fact, Li Xianyu has died once. But for his self-healing ability, the Li family would have died off.”
“There are actually such things?” Hua Yang was thrilled.
“What’s the matter with this child’s powers?”
“Who knows, but it must have something to do with Li Wuxiang.” Great-Grandma’s face was sad. “I wanted to ask you to stay and protect him for me, but you have a deep feud to avenge. I can’t be selfish. Although he is the only son of Li Wuxiang, although my disheartened grandson kept thinking of you and found a woman similar to you. Although he died in front of me, he told me that I must help him find Hua Yang before he breathed his last. However, it doesn’t matter. Your feud is most important.”
“I’m very glad to see my old friend again today. If Li Xianyu hasn’t died by Ching Ming next year, I’ll take him to his father’s grave and tell Li Wuxiang that the woman he still cares about until his death has been found, which will make him feel at ease. As for his son, I will protect him myself.”
Hua Yang cried hard by the window, and said with a sigh, “You are right. He is the only proof that Li Wuxiang has left in the world. I should protect him, or I will never be able to answer to Wuxiang.”
Great-Grandma said, “No, no, no, you should go to take revenge.”
Hua Yang said, “Don’t say anything else. I’ve made up my mind. I won’t leave.”
Great-Grandma said, “Li Wuxiang didn’t marry you that year, which was the biggest regret of his life, and also the regret of the Li family.”
Hua Yang cried as she felt even more sad.
Great-Grandma: (^_−)☆
...
Li Xianyu didn’t wake up until noon. It happened to be meal time. He was awakened by hunger. His self healing ability had caused him to expand a lot of energy to repair his body. His body forced him to wake up and reminded him that it was time to eat.
The ward was quiet. Cui Hua curled up in the bed next to him and slept soundly. On the couch beside the bed sat Great-Grandma. Her feet were on the bed. Her toenails were moving uneasily. She was wearing earphones and playing games at the same time.
“Great-Grandma?” Li Xianyu sat up and looked at the ward.
I haven’t died yet. Great-Grandma didn’t let me down.
In two months, he had lived in more wards than in the past 20 years combined. His recent life can be divided into three steps: mission, danger, and then hospitalization.
“You’re awake,” Great-Grandma said without looking up.
“Yeah.” Li Xianyu nodded and sat for a while, his mind gradually becoming clearer. Then, he asked, “How is the dry corpse in the hospital?”
He believed that since Great-Grandma had saved him, she should know all about it. He didn’t need to describe the horror of the dry corpse.
Great-Grandma said, “That’s your step-mother.”
Li Xianyu was puzzled.
“It’s your father’s old flame,” she said.
“My father...” Li Xianyu was startled. She was referring to his biological father, not his adoptive father. “It can’t be? What a coincidence? Or was it that my dad had his Casanova days, having a lot of old flames across the demon descendants’ community?”
“Given your father’s body, do you think it’s possible?” Great-Grandma said. “I can’t believe it. It’s too much of a coincidence. Hua Yang was also a well-known god in the demon descendants’ community, one of the top ten treasures of Taoism, with countless pursuers. Later, she fell in love with your father. He used to like a lot of women, but she was the only one who he really wanted to marry. Then, she disappeared. No one managed to find her. It’s a big regret in your father’s life. They were not fated.”
“I lied to her that your father never forgot her and found a woman who looked like her and gave birth to a baby with her. That’s your mother and you. Don’t expose me,” Grandma said. “With my persuasion, she decided to stay to help you.”
“I’ve calculated. With her, you can make up for your weakness in mental strength. With my protection, in the aspect of cultivation, Slime will suck blood and sperm for you. When you run into danger, Cui Hua, a godly foreign species, will aid you to escape. It’s very appropriate.”
She simply told her great-grandson how she used emotion and reasoning to add a potent member to their team.
“Well, well done, Great-Grandma.” Li Xianyu was deeply impressed by Great-Grandma’s actions.
“How skilled Hua Yang? Is she S-level?” he asked.
“It’s hard to say.” Great-Grandma thought for a moment. “Her state is very rare. It’s not in the five elements, like me. Her existence is a special existence created for some purpose. It’s hard to evaluate her skills based on levels like this. I don’t know much about fallen angels, but one thing is for sure. From now on, the spiritual awakeners have no advantage in front of you. She can help you resist any magic, charm and spiritual shock. Also, she is a terrifying spiritual awakener.”
“What are fallen angels?”
“I guess it’s related to foreign religions,” Great-Grandma said. “Fallen angels are a weapon in the field of spiritual power. If I guessed correctly, she was refined by foreign religions and exists as a weapon of missionary. From ancient times, no matter how uprights the teachings of sects or cults, the imparting of knowledge regarding this subject is always between upright powers and illicit powers. The Hindu religion will make believers take hallucinogens, so as to achieve the illusion of gods coming into the world. In this way, religious authority will be increased. In my time, the White Lotus Sect used similar means.”
“However, how can those things be compared with fallen angels? No matter what religion, as long as they can control the fallen angels, they can grow rapidly. I understand that this is the purpose of those foreigners in refining fallen angels. ”
“Then I can set up Salted Fish Sect in the future, so that the brilliance of salted fish will shine on the face of the earth,” Li Xianyu joked. “By the way, where is Hua Yang?”
“Call her Mother Hua Yang. Make your words sweeter. Anyway, you’re good at pacifying women. If you make her happy, she won’t leave you... I don’t mean pacifying in that sense. She was your father’s lover. You need to be careful,” Great-Grandma said. “She took your employee card to the archives department. Just after she got out of captivity, she also wanted to know some things, such as how her sect is now.”
“I’m such a person in your heart?” Li Xianyu was indignant as he probed on, “What about the broadcasting team?”
“When I realized that you were in danger, I knocked them out. People from the Fuzhou branch took them away and said they would be brainwashed to erase their memories of last night.
Well, last night’s memories for ordinary people is a nightmare that will never be forgotten. A few people may have gone mad over that. Eliminating their memories is akin to protecting them.”
It had been nearly a month since he left Shanghai to practice himself. It was about time for the Forum Conference.
His harvest was very rich. Not only had his cultivation greatly increased, he had also gained Cui Hua and Fallen Angel, Hua Yang. All of them were super able to fight. As far as his current team power was concerned, he did not need to solve ordinary crises in person. With a big wave of his hand, Great-Grandma, Mother Hua Yang, Fallen Angel, Cui Hua... They would eliminate enemies all day.
Although I am not strong myself, my harem is solid. Holding Great-Grandma with my left hand, and Mother Hua Yang with my right. There’s a Slime in my hand. Changing Cui Hua into a mount.
Li Xianyu almost sang these lyrics out happily.
At this time, the door of the ward opened, and the half-real Hua Yang entered the room. She saw Li Xianyu wake up and her eyes brightened. She thought of last night, where she nearly killed him. She stood awkwardly and was rooted to the spot, looking a little nervous.
Li Xianyu smiled radiantly and said, “Mother Hua Yang.”
In an instant, the layers of dark clouds dissipated. The sunlight shone down, and her heart, which had been imprisoned for 30 years, started to feel warm again.
