Chapter 189 Her Mother Takes Zi You to the God Realm
Old General Mu was worried. His son was right. There were so many people there. If just one person accidentally leaked out todayâs events, it would bring Shangguan LingRan endless disaster and ruin his granddaughterâs reputation. To hide it, they could only take the worry-free pills that his granddaughter had made. But where was he going to get so many?
Old General Mu helplessly waved his hand. He said to Mu YingYi, âHave the soldiers rest first. Iâll discuss it with the Prime Minister when he gets here.â
Zi Youâs life-saving pill, Nine Soul Pill, was very effective. Shangguan LingRan woke up an hour later. Although he didnât cry anymore, the situation was more worrying than him crying. He mumbled to himself as he hugged Zi You and wouldnât let anyone touch her.
When Old General Mu tried to take Zi You away, he became crazy and wouldnât allow it. Time passed like this until Wu Shi [7 â 9 p.m.]. Shangguan LingRan still held Zi You. Zi You seemed to be quietly asleep. Her pretty pink face seemed to have a smile on it.
Old General Mu and Mu YingYi sat on chairs with their heads bent. Immense grief had worn down the father and son. The Prime Minister still hadnât come. They were waiting for him.
At this moment, the tent flap rose. They thought that it was the Prime Minister. They looked up and were stunned.
It was two women. They were dressed in Indian saris and as beautiful as fairies, especially the one in front.
âDier!â Mu YingYi finally shouted in surprise after his shock.
Shangguan LingRan heard him call out âDierâ and lifted his head. He saw a woman about twenty years old who wore an ice-blue silver sari with embroidered snowflakes and inlaid with diamonds. Other than her skin color being different, her temperament and appearance were almost the same as Zi Youâs.
There was also a woman about twenty-four or twenty-five years old who wore a white sari behind the woman who looked like Zi You.
A trace of excitement flashed across Dierâs eyes when she looked at Old General Mu and Mu YingYi. But she soon regained her calmness. She deeply curtsied and said, âPaying respects to Old General and Young General. How are you, Old General and Young General?â
She really was Zi Youâs mother, Dier. Shangguan LingRan was shocked. Didnât they say that YouYouâs mother was dead? But she was still alive? What was going on?
He was pondering and then heard Mu YingYi said excitedly, âDier, itâs good that youâre here. Hurry and save Youâer. She used her spiritual power to save people, but sheâs seriously injured and shattered her arteries.â
âAi. This silly child.â Dier looked at Zi You with a loving gaze. She was about to go over, but the woman behind her reached out to stop her and said something that they couldnât understand.
Although Shangguan LingRan didnât understand, he could tell from her expression and actions that she was stopping Dier from saving Zi You.
Old General Mu and Mu YingYi more or less could understand some Indian words because of their previous interactions with Dier. Once they heard this woman didnât let Dier save Zi You, they immediately wanted to take action.
Shangguan LingRan immediately asked, âGrandfather, is she stopping Aunt [polite address] from saving Zi You?â
He didnât wait for Old General Mu and Mu YingYi to reply and ran over to ask the woman. âWhat right do you have to stop a mother from saving her daughter?â
The white-clothed woman looked at Shangguan LingRan, Old General Mu, and Mu YingYi with an arrogant expression. In broken Chinese, she said, âWe can save her, but she must return to our Indian God Realm with us. How can the descendant of Goddess Mari live in a foreign land? Goddess Mari said if Mu Zi You doesnât return to our God Realm, we are not allowed to save her.â
âWhat kind of bullsh*t goddess is Goddess Mari? What kind of cold-blooded monster is she?â Shangguan LingRan angrily scolded. âShe wants a mother to watch her daughter die and wonât let her save her. Is she still a goddess? Sheâs a monster.â
âYou cannot slander and insult our esteemed goddess.â The white-clothed woman was obviously very angry. She reached out to slap Shangguan LingRan, but was stopped by Dier.
Dier looked coldly at the white-clothed woman. She said with authority, âVaninaya, you are just a guardian. Please donât abuse your authority. You have no right to interfere with what I do!â
Vaninaya looked unreconciled at Dier. After a while, she bowed her head under Dierâs pressure. She clasped her hands together and said, âThis subordinate doesnât dare. But when this subordinate came, this subordinate really received Goddess Mari orders. She wants this subordinate to urge you to bring your daughter back to the God Realm.â
Dier didnât say anything. She had calculated that Zi You would be in danger. When she came here, her maternal grandmother had said the same thing to her. âBring your daughter back. My, Mariâs, descendants absolutely cannot stay in the mortal world. You have the courage to give birth to a goddess, so you should bring her back.
âBut you put a seal on her and let her stay in Great Yan. As a result, she suffered for a lifetime. If I didnât let her be reborn, she would have fallen into the reincarnation cycle already.â
Dier knew her grandmotherâs ability. She was still not her opponent. If she really wanted to continue leaving Youâer in Great Yan, she would come sooner or later to bring Youâer back and Youâer might get injured.
Dier said with difficulty to Old General Mu and Mu YingYi, âI have to take Youâer back to India with me. Even if I save her, she will become a waste here.â
Old General Muâs tiger body shook. He almost collapsed. Fortunately, Shangguan LingRan supported him.
Mu YingYiâs eyes reddened. He asked sadly, âDo you have to take Youâer away from us? I donât believe that you canât save her. I was dead back then, but you still......â
âShe is different from you. Her arteries are shattered.â Mu YingYi hadnât finished speaking before Dier interrupted him.
Shangguan LingRan rushed to kneel down in front of Dier. He cried out and begged, âPlease! Aunt, please save Youâer. I...... We cannot live without her!â
Dier looked at the handsome and outstanding young man in front of her. She shook her head regretfully. âIâm sorry! I canât leave her here or it will bring all of you a calamity. If you really want her back, go find her in India.â
Then she told Vaninaya, âLetâs go.â
âWait.â Old General Mu knew that he couldnât make his granddaughter stay. He couldnât help but burst into tears.
He reached his hand out and touched Zi Youâs face and head for a long time. Then he rubbed his eyes and said to Dier, âI ask you for one thing. Let the 4,000 soldiers forget what happened today. I donât want Youâer to be......â
âI understand.â Dier seemed to clearly understand what Old General Mu was trying to say. She slightly smiled and replied, âPlease rest assured, Old General. They wonât remember what happened today.â
âAunt.â Shangguan LingRan firmly blocked Dier and enunciated, âPlease tell the soldiers that YouYou isnât dead. She is injured and taken by an expert to be treated. One day, I will go to your India and bring her back!â
At this time, Shangguan LingRan didnât have the slightest dandyish air at all. His attitude revealed a sharpness. The moonlight held a touch of silver and sprinkled on that touch of ocean blue (Shangguan LingRan was wearing an ocean blue brocade robe.). One looking at this figure from far away would feel that he was infinitely graceful, outstanding, and unparalleled.
He knew that with his current ability, he couldnât stop Vaninaya or Dier. When Vaninaya wanted to strike him earlier, he had no ability to resist.
If it wasnât for Dier, he would certainly have been humiliated. Moreover, if he didnât let them take YouYou away, YouYou would certainly die. But if they took YouYou away, there would be hope. He knew that Dier was a goddess and could certainly save YouYou.
As long as YouYou was alive, he would certainly try his best to bring her back. Moreover, Dierâs words contained a hidden meaning. She had clearly told him that he must go to India to get YouYou back.
Then, letâs not mention India. He would charge in even if it was the heavens, hell, mountains of knives, or oceans of fire.
So, they couldnât announce to the world that YouYou was dead. They had to maintain that she was alive. He swore that he would bring YouYou back one day.
âGood. I will wait for you. Youâer indeed didnât choose wrong. I hope that you will keep your promise.â Dier looked at Shangguan LingRan and revealed a gratified smile.
Her daughter had good vision this time. This young man was much better than that b*stard Zhao HongXiang.
Since Dier had come inside, Mu YingYiâs eyes had been on her. He saw her look mildly at him and didnât look at him again. His heart couldnât help but pain.
He wanted to say something, but he thought that he had ultimately let her down and so, he guiltily closed his mouth.
Dier turned around and handed Mu YingYi a sachet. âYoung General, there are life-saving pills inside. Keep it around you and Old General.â
She slightly curtsied and picked up Zi You. Then she turned to walk out.
Shiyun and Moyun quickly knelt. They sobbed, âFuren, can you take Nubi with you?â
Dier shook her head. âIf you come, you will be killed.â
Shiyun cried out. She pointed to the five constantly swaying black mandara flowers. âPlease bring these flowers then, Furen. They wonât survive without Xiaojie. Besides, Xiaojie cannot be without them.â
Dier looked at the black mandara flowers and knew that they were spirit flowers that her daughter had carefully raised.
So, she waved her hand and turned the five black mandara flowers into spirits and gathered them in her arms.
She walked outside and stretched out her left hand. She pushed forward and an ice blue circle of light expanded. It gave off a dazzling blue light and spread throughout the mountains.
Old General Mu and Mu YingYi saw this and realized that Dierâs spiritual power was much stronger than before.
