Chapter 1059: The Old Woman’s Past, the Secret of the Avenue Palace
At the former headquarters of the Wanyu Sect, several streams of light met.
"There used to be a great sect here, but it disappeared without a trace overnight."
"That sect leader is a spatial overlord. Even if our Dao Palace wants to capture him, it will be difficult to succeed if the Palace Master does not take action."
"Although this place is far from the place of vision, it is still within a certain range of travel and must be strictly inspected."
"From this point onward, dispatch additional personnel to capture and interrogate any living creatures encountered. Quickly uncover the cause."
A few streaks of light paused for a moment and then quickly dispersed.
……
On the top of the mountain, after the Witch Queen finished speaking, an old woman with a hunched back slowly walked towards them.
Without saying a word, she walked over to the Witch Queen and grabbed her right hand. "Child, follow me."
The Witch Queen nodded and followed obediently. Qin Han and the others wanted to follow, but the old woman suddenly turned around and said, "Only she can follow me. You can't follow."
Several people had no choice but to stop. Qin Han gave the Witch Queen a look that urged him to be cautious, then turned around and sat back on the big rock.
After the two disappeared from the spot, Hanshan walked over and said, "The aura of this old lady is very strange. I can't even find any useful information."
"We haven't seen each other for ages. We don't know anything about the other party. Could this be a trap?"
Qin Han: "It's definitely not a trap. I think the old lady is guarding against us. She is afraid that we are a trap."
"It seems like she has quite a few stories."
……
The old woman looked like she was dying, but after she walked out of the mountain with the Witch Queen, her breath suddenly increased. She took the Witch Queen through many spaces quickly and finally came to a small house.
After entering the hut, the old woman finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's safe."
There was only a bed, a square table and a bedside table in the room.
She pulled the Witch Queen to sit at the head of the bed and said in a very serious tone, "As long as you come here, you will be completely safe. Even if they have means to control you, they will never work here."
"No one will ever find this place."
The Witch Queen: "You may have misunderstood. They are not enemies."
The old woman said: "The more loyal people are in this world, the more we must be on our guard, otherwise they will end up like me."
"One of the two people next to you is a Ten Dao Overlord. He has lived an upright life and should not be a bad person."
"When the other one was surrounded by the avenue, it was impossible to see his past. This person is definitely not a good person."
"He must have some ulterior motive in approaching you."
The Witch Queen: "Without him, I would have died long ago. Without him, I wouldn't have the strength I have today."
"I can distrust anyone in this world, but I cannot distrust him."
The old woman suddenly laughed crazily, "You will never know how dark human nature is, let alone how evil human nature can be."
"Don't think that they are helping you by letting you become the Nine Paths Overlord."
"The more you give, the more you'll want."
"And he can take back what he gives you at any time."
The Witch Queen frowned slightly. She felt that the old woman was a little too cautious. Qin Han's growth had all taken place under her nose. How could she not know the inside story?
But now, the mother-in-law doesn't even believe what she says.
She wanted to tell Qin Han about his great fortune, but the two had just met and were not familiar with each other, so she could not tell Qin Han's secret casually.
Thinking about this for a moment, the Witch Queen asked, "Grandma, have you ever encountered something like this before?"
Hearing the witch queen's question, the old woman's expression became visibly agitated, and her eyes almost sparked with fire.
Seeing this, the Witch Queen quickly supported the old woman's back and gently soothed her, "Don't be upset, mother-in-law. I didn't mean to hurt you."
Under the soothing of the witch queen, the old woman's expression gradually softened.
"I know you don't believe me at all now."
"But I checked your resume, you're a good kid."
"Well, in order to prevent you from getting lost, I will tell you about it."
Grasping the witch queen's hand again, the old woman narrated slowly,
"During the war, the entire outer domain was in chaos. Wu Zu was afraid that something might happen to me, so he made an agreement and sent me to a safe place."
"At that time, my cultivation was still shallow, so I stayed where I was, slowly comprehending the classics left by my master and the Wu Zu."
"Gradually, I delved deeper and deeper into the Tianji Dao, and later gradually broke away from their scope of knowledge and created many new things on my own."
"Just blindly working in isolation made my progress in cultivation even slower, so I left."
"While collecting the fragments of my master, I will also absorb the experience of various factions outside the domain and apply it to other cases."
"By that time, the war had long since ended, new cultivators were rising, and the entire outer realm was thriving."
"Overlords are gradually emerging, and I am also in the first echelon."
“It’s just that, in my best years, I met that person.”
"He is of noble birth, gentle and considerate, and knows how to please me very much."
"Gradually, I opened my heart to you. We shared our resources, and neither of us was on guard against each other in terms of cultivation or secrets."
"However, I have always kept the agreement I made with Wu Zu and the matter of my master in my heart and never told him. I only said that my own Tianji Dao was cultivated by myself. Because of this, I feel that I owe him and have made amends to him in many ways."
"He said he wanted our children to enjoy the best resources in the world and become the world's top geniuses."
"So I worked tirelessly, even neglecting my spiritual practice, to help him plan and devise strategies using my understanding of the mysteries of nature and my previous travels."
“But when I gave my all with all my heart, he kicked me into the abyss.”
"After I climbed out of the abyss after going through so much hardship, I found out that he had a child, but it wasn't with me."
"He used the resources we planned to build that child into what we had imagined."
"He sent the child to the Soul Clan, into a realm that even I cannot reach."
At this point, the old woman's expression began to go crazy.
"At that time, I desperately sought revenge on him but failed. I thought there was no hope of revenge in this life, but the most ironic thing is..."
"The child he cultivated with all his heart annihilated the Soul Clan and reached the pinnacle."
"It was because when he tried to control the other person by using his father's identity, he was slapped to death by this person."
"How ironic, how sad."
The old woman calmed down and continued:
"I originally thought that the matter had ended here, and I quietly left, ready to continue with my unfinished business."
"But you know what? Long before he died, that man told his children that I had returned for revenge."
"In order to get the secret from me, the other party actually made a new plan for me."
