Chapter 1388: Secrets Cannot Be Revealed

Book:The All-powerful Son-In-Law Published:2024-7-24

Daisy’s spirit instantly floated in front of Leo. Her beautiful and enchanting eyes looked at Leo, and Leo’s eyes met hers.
As their gazes locked, a strange emotion arose in Leo’s heart.
He felt as if his mind was sinking into the ocean, and Daisy’s exquisite face became blurry in his eyes.
It was like a wisp of smoke that would dissipate with a gentle blow.
In a daze, Leo seemed to enter another world, a world filled with tranquility.
“Young Master, wake up!”
Maggie’s voice echoed in Leo’s mind, jolting him back to clarity.
In front of him was Maggie’s anxious expression.
“Maggie, what happened?” Leo asked, still somewhat confused.
“Young Master, we are out.”
Out?
Leo looked around and realized he was no longer in the original place. The huge altar, the woman in purple, and Hannah were all there.
They had inexplicably emerged from the secret realm!
Leo’s gaze finally focused on Hannah. At this moment, Hannah was only half a head shorter than him. Her appearance was no longer that of a little girl; she seemed to have grown up overnight.
She exuded an invisible powerful aura, along with the unique demonic energy of the Spirit Fox Clan.
These changes indicated that Hannah had successfully inherited her legacy.
“Congratulations, Hannah,” Leo congratulated her.
“Thank you, Mr. Bloomer,” Hannah replied with a smile.
Hannah’s words made Leo raise an eyebrow. She now addressed him as Mr. Bloomer, deliberately distancing herself?
A woman’s mind is hard to guess, and it’s even harder if the woman is a fox.
Distance is fine; they were not on the same path anyway.
“I think you not only accepted the inheritance but also gained a tail?”
“Thanks to Mr. Bloomer, Hannah now has three tails,” the woman in purple answered for Hannah.
“Three tails? Impressive. So, about the reward?”
The woman in purple smiled seductively. “The reward is easy to discuss. I have an elixir of life here. Would Mr. Bloomer be interested?”
“Elixir of life? What does it do?”
“Let me put it this way: if you are severely injured, even if you are on the brink of death, taking the elixir of life will instantly restore you to full health,” the woman in purple explained.
Leo’s heart stirred. This was indeed a valuable item. “Alright, I’ll take the elixir of life.”
The woman in purple extended her right hand, and a white pill appeared in her palm.
Seeing Leo accept the elixir of life, the woman in purple smiled again. “Mr. Bloomer, since fate brought us together, besides giving you the elixir of life as a reward, I also have some information for you.”
“What information?”
“When you leave Greenmount, you can visit Yellow Dragon Mountain near Ninghua Town, not far from Langstel. There might be an opportunity there.”
“What do you mean? What kind of opportunity?” Leo felt intrigued.
The woman in purple smiled mysteriously. “Secrets cannot be revealed. You’ll know when you get there.”
Leo didn’t plan to stay in Greenmount any longer and took his leave immediately.
Since he had to return to Langstel anyway, he might as well visit Ninghua Town as suggested by Xena.
By evening, Leo arrived at Ninghua Town.
After filling his stomach, Leo planned to find a hotel in town to stay for the night and visit Yellow Dragon Mountain in the morning.
While searching for a hotel, a young woman walked straight towards him from a distance.
The woman approached Leo with a smile on her face. “Master, are you here for the earth dragon at Yellow Dragon Mountain?”
“You must be mistaken,” Leo replied, puzzled by her words.
The woman smiled. “I can sense that you are not an ordinary person but a Cultivator.”
Recently, many Cultivators had come here.
Leo’s curiosity was piqued as he carefully observed the woman before him.
She looked to be in her early twenties, petite and delicate with a clear and pleasant appearance. Though not stunningly beautiful, she was quite attractive with her short bob haircut.
She mentioned coming for the earth dragon at Yellow Dragon Mountain. What on earth was an earth dragon?
Seeing Leo deep in thought, the woman smiled and asked again, “May I know your name, Master?”
“Bloomer,” Leo replied casually.
“Mr. Bloomer, my name is Naomi. I practice at Heaven’s Origin Sect on Yellow Dragon Mountain. The recent signs of the earth dragon’s awakening have attracted many Cultivators here.”
“Heaven’s Origin Sect is a local cultivation sect but cannot stop this earth dragon awakening alone. Since so many fellow Cultivators are here, I thought we could join forces to solve this problem and prevent any disaster.”
Leo understood Naomi’s intention and replied, “Since Heaven’s Origin Sect has such plans and I am new here, I will follow your lead.”
“That’s great. Mr. Bloomer, please follow me.” Naomi gestured for him to follow.
Leo nodded and followed Naomi for a while before getting into a car parked by the roadside.
In the car, Leo couldn’t help but ask, “Naomi, I have hidden my aura. How did you know I am not an ordinary person?”
Naomi drove while replying, “To be honest, I have an innate ability to sense if someone is not ordinary, whether they are Martial Cultivators or Cultivators.”
Naomi’s answer cleared Leo’s doubts.
“By the way, Mr. Bloomer, may I ask which sect you belong to?”
“I am alone with no sect or affiliation.”
“No sect or affiliation yet able to cultivate into a Cultivator; that’s truly admirable,” Naomi complimented. “Mr. Bloomer, how much do you know about the earth dragon awakening?”
Leo just smiled and shook his head, saying it was his first time hearing about it too.
During the rest of the journey, Naomi chatted with Leo about various matters in the cultivation world.
The earth dragon awakening had attracted many people from different factions like the Five Great Sects of Xuanmen, the Cultivation Alliance, and even the Three Holy Lands.
Leo listened as if hearing interesting stories without taking them seriously.
After about half an hour, they arrived at the foot of a mountain.
Naomi didn’t stop but drove up the winding mountain road.
Halfway up the mountain, Naomi parked the car in an open area and led Leo towards Heaven Essence Abbey.
Heaven Essence Abbey was built along the mountain and covered a vast area.
At the entrance stood a massive stone tablet inscribed with ten bold characters: “Yellow Dragon Heaven’s Origin Sect – A Place for Mortal Cultivation.”
Seeing these characters made Leo squint his eyes slightly.
These characters seemed ordinary but contained hidden charm, likely written by an enlightened master.
Noticing Leo’s attention on the stone tablet, Naomi proudly explained, “Mr. Bloomer, this stone tablet and its inscription were left by our sect’s first-generation patriarch over a thousand years ago.”
