2524 Spirit Mother!
âDonât worry. The girl you just saw is stronger than the Spirit Mother. She will be able to ensure our safety, so you donât have to worry about me anymore! You donât have to worry about whether the Spirit Motherâs two personal assistants will sabotage me, either. When I go and confront the Spirit Mother today, come with me!â
While Bu Po spoke, he picked up his sisterâs hand.
The girl held Bu Poâs face and said seriously, âI canât do much. All I can do is mend a few old clothes, make simple dishes, and clean rooms. I canât make any suggestions with regard to your future, nor will I interfere.
âIf you want me to go with you to see the Spirit Mother, I will! Regardless of what happens, we will have each other. In the past, it was me taking care of you. But now, itâs time for me to follow you!â
The girl lifted Bu Poâs palm and gestured for him to take her in whatever direction he wanted.
Bu Po knew that his sister still had not set her heart at ease. She couldnât relax until he confronted the Spirit Mother and she was sure that the Spirit Mother couldnât touch him.
Bu Po helped his sister adjust her clothes for the first time before they strode toward the Spirit Motherâs bedchamber.
The Spirit Mother had not summoned him many times in the past. After the Spirit Motherâs nine tests, he had been completely cut off from the Spirit Mother.
This caused many people to think that he, the victor of the Spirit Motherâs nine tests, could not meet the Spirit Motherâs satisfaction.
As a result, some Sky Mother families still felt hints of indignance.
It was likely that the Spirit Mother was only calling him now because he also intended to have a confrontation.
The four personal attendants stood outside the Spirit Motherâs door, two of them with sour expressions. They had just visited Bu Po, who had refused to see them. They were also upset to learn that he had given gifts to the other two attendants two days ago.
All four of them were the Spirit Motherâs personal attendants, so they didnât understand why Bu Po was treating them differently.
If Bu Po had been alone, the attendants would have opened the door to the Spirit Motherâs bedchamber and let him in. But he was with his sister, and the attendants didnât remember the Spirit Mother ever mentioning wanting to see her.
If Bu Po wasnât a reserve disciple, someone as inferior as his sister would never be allowed to live in the Spirit Motherâs compound.
The two attendants who had failed to fetch Bu Po took a step forward and said, âThe Spirit Mother only asked to speak with you and not your sister. Do you think that you can go against the Spirit Motherâs rules now that youâve passed the Spirit Motherâs nine tests?â
Bu Po used to be a simple boy. But after coming here, he realized that everyone spoke with hidden meanings.
He hated this way of communicating, especially now that he was preparing for a showdown. Hence, he could not be bothered to put on an act.
âI have my reasons for bringing my sister to meet the Spirit Mother. If you have complaints, you should report them instead of reprimanding me. The Spirit Mother is now my master, so you are going over his head by reprimanding me.â
There were some words that Bu Po wanted to say but did not because he could not be bothered to do so.
His words immediately choked the livid personal attendants.
They had just verbally attacked Bu Po for disrespecting the Spirit Mother, but now he was doing the same to them.
The other two personal attendants noticed a stark change in Bu Poâs attitude and were afraid that he would cause a scene by the door.
It was a fact that Bu Po had passed the Spirit Motherâs nine tests and was now his legitimate successor. It would indeed seem inappropriate if others saw them speaking to him in such a way. It would also cause the Spirit Mother to think of them as ignorant.
Despite being the Spirit Motherâs personal attendants, the four of them did not know exactly how the Spirit Mother felt about Bu Po.
Bu Po was already a Class 3 Creation Master despite being in his teens. Who could say that the explosive power he demonstrated during the Spirit Motherâs nine tests did not come from private lessons with the Spirit Mother?
Thus, these two personal attendants rushed into the bedchamber to report to the Spirit Mother.
The bedchamber appeared to be an endless space, and every part of its interior was like an intricate piece of art.
All of the Spirit Mother Federationâs Class 5 Spirit Craftsmen worked on designing, building, and maintaining the bedchamberâs interior.
Every corner of the bedchamber made for breathtaking scenery. Yet, they did not clash against each other when put together.
Many rare plants were placed all over the Spirit Motherâs bedchamber, and numerous beautiful fish swam in tanks placed in certain corners.
The Spirit-Siphon Goldfish did not only exist in the Radiance Federation and could be found in many streams.
However, there were no streams in the Spirit Mother Federation. Thus, all the Spirit-Siphon Goldfish in the tanks were imported from other territories.
These Spirit-Siphon Goldfish had all been nurtured to the Diamond grade. Hence, the concentration of spirit qi in the Spirit Motherâs bedchamber was several times greater than that of the outside world.
The personal attendants briskly walked for tens of minutes in the bedchamber before they spotted a beautiful and androgynous figure.
The figure was lazily tossing cereal to Windchime Birds perched on a piece of silk laid out on the ground. When the Windchime Birds flapped their wings, they produced sounds akin to windchimes and were extremely pleasant to the ears.
This figure was dressed in a white and loose-fitting outfit made of silk. The light layer allowed one to easily notice the tattoos covering the figureâs body.
When the personal attendants saw the Spirit Mother, they fell to their knees and dared not meet his eyes.
âLord Spirit Mother, Lord Bu is by the door. However, he has brought his sister with him to see you! What are your thoughts on this?â
The Spirit Mother tossed out the remainder of the cereal in his hand and clapped his hands together lightly. His brow furrowed slightly, and an expression of contemplation appeared on his face.
A moment later, an unclear voice said, âLet Little Po and his sister come in together. Go and prepare some fruits and lay out a feast of fruits. As his master, itâs time for me to have a talk with Little Po!â
The personal attendants kneeling on the ground thought, Luckily, we made our greetings. The Spirit Mother wants to prepare a feast of fruits for Lord Bu, meaning that Lord Bu is important to him!
Once the personal attendants walked away, the Spirit Motherâs expression changed. The exquisitely beautiful face became so stormy that it seemed as though raindrops would fall from it at any moment!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
