131: Mother left

Despite being mentally prepared, hearing his mother say these words, Nangong Yu still inevitably felt a sense of loss in his heart.

Nangong Yu continued to hug his mother tightly, his voice slightly tense. "Mother, are you going somewhere?"

Shangguan Yuexi's eyes were slightly red as she spoke. "We have been suppressing our cultivation at the Mid-stage Spirit Venerable Realm for some time now. Your grandmother and the others want me to take the Zhenbei Army and go to the Holy Realm with them first."

"Firstly, we can continue to improve our cultivation. Secondly, they want to wait until things are stable and in a safe environment before letting you go to the Holy Realm!"

"Can you not go?" Nangong Yu asked, his voice filled with intense reluctance.

Shangguan Yuexi pushed Nangong Yu away, looked at him, and said solemnly, "Yuer, you must understand. The Spirit Venerable Realm only has a Lifespan of ten thousand years. If Mother wants to be with you forever, then our cultivation must reach a higher level, to the point where our Lifespan is infinite."

"And to achieve this, it is not possible in the Mortal Realm; only by going to the Holy Realm can it be done!"

Hearing this, Nangong Yu understood in his heart, but he was just reluctant to let go.

He nodded, half-understanding. "Then can you take Yuer with you?"

Shangguan Yuexi shook her head slightly. "Everything in the Holy Realm is unknown. You should not go for now. Listen to Mother well and do not reach a Breakthrough to the Late-stage Spirit Venerable Realm!"

"Your grandmother came from the Holy Realm; she will lead us to settle down. Once we are completely settled, I will bring you over, okay?"

Hearing this, Nangong Yu's eyes dimmed slightly. "Then when will you leave?"

Shangguan Yuexi paused slightly, then forced a smile and stroked Nangong Yu's head. "Yuer has grown up, and we must learn to part for a while. A brief separation is for a better reunion. Mother has decided to leave today. Yuer must be good, do you know?"

Hearing this, Nangong Yu was slightly stunned.

He nodded slightly, then kissed his mother's cheek and lay back down on the bed.

"Yuer will sleep for a while; Mother, please do not let Yuer wait too long, okay?"

After saying this, he forced himself to fall asleep.

Seeing this, Shangguan Yuexi's tears broke through. "Rest assured, Yuer, Mother will not let you wait too long."

She lowered her head and kissed Nangong Yu, then turned and left decisively, as if she had made up her mind.

Walking out of the room, Shangguan Yuexi looked at Qing Ling and Su Xingmeng and said in a deep voice, "Qing Ling, Xingmeng, take good care of your Young Master!"

"Understood!"

The two nodded.

Four years had passed. Not only did others regard Su Xingmeng as Nangong Yu's Servant Girl, but even Su Xingmeng herself thought so.

Therefore, hearing Shangguan Yuexi's words, Su Xingmeng also nodded in agreement.

Of course, it was also because more than three years ago, Su Xingmeng noticed the changes in Qing Ling and knew that her Opportunity was by her side.

Three years ago, the day Su Xingmeng decided to become Nangong Yu's Servant Girl, she woke up with a Cultivation Technique in her mind—it was the most suitable Cultivation Technique for her.

She also successfully achieved a Breakthrough to the Spirit Absorption Realm, breaking the nightmare of being unable to Cultivate for 14 years.

For this, she felt even more grateful to Nangong Yu in her heart, even though Nangong Yu didn't say it, and others didn't say it either.

But she knew that all of this stemmed from Nangong Yu, that guy who hid so deeply!

Shangguan Yuexi did not say much and summoned Ye Jingling. "From now on, all matters in the Prince of Zhenbeis Residence will be handed over to you to manage. Do not let down my trust in you."

"This Servant Girl obeys!"

Ye Jingling nodded. "This Servant Girl will definitely perform her duties well, manage the Prince of Zhenbeis Residence well, and not fail the cultivation of Your Highness!"

More than a year ago, Aunt Shen began to hand over some matters to her, and three days ago, the authority of the position of Chief Steward of the Prince of Zhenbeis Residence fell into her hands.

In the more than seven years she had been in the Prince of Zhenbeis Residence, her cultivation had reached the Late Stage of the Divine Combination Realm. It would be a lie to say she was not grateful to the Prince of Zhenbei and Shangguan Yuexi.

Shangguan Yuexi nodded slightly, gave a few more instructions, and left with Aunt Shen.

In the palace, Ji Ziyu and Xuanyuan Lingyun were already waiting there.

Seeing Shangguan Yuexi arrive, Xuanyuan Lingyun asked, "How is Yuer's mood?"

Shangguan Yuexi shook her head slightly. "It is stable, but I am afraid he will be lost for a while."

Hearing this, the others shook their heads. "He should learn to deal with these kinds of things."

Shangguan Yuexi nodded slightly and looked at Nangong Aotian. "Brother, since you are not going over for the time being, please take care of Yuer."

"That goes without saying!" Nangong Aotian nodded.

Ji Ziyu looked at Shangguan Yuexi. "Yuexi, the Zhenbei Army..."

"Mother, I have already notified General Wenxin and the other two, letting them lead the Zhenbei Army to wait outside Fuguang City. We can just go directly there."

Speaking of this, Shangguan Yuexi turned to look at Nangong Aotian. "Brother, can the matter of the Zhenbei Army leaving not be spread?"

"That goes without saying!"

Nangong Aotian nodded. He naturally knew Shangguan Yuexi's concerns and did not refuse.

But he did not know that Shangguan Yuexi had always been hiding an important piece of information.

Nangong Yu was not at the Early Stage of the Core Formation Realm as he appeared, but at the Mid-stage Spirit Venerable Realm!

Shangguan Yuexi naturally would not tell others about this point; that was one of Nangong Yu's trump cards!

The few did not say much, and Ji Ziyu and the others left.

Accompanying them, a group of six people left quietly: Shangguan Yuexi and Aunt Shen, Ji Ziyu and Cui Zhu, and Xuanyuan Lingyun and Han Liyan.

As for Shangguan Feihong, he had impatiently gone to the Holy Realm two years ago, and no one knew where he was at this time.

On this day, Shangguan Yuexi and the others, along with the Zhenbei Army, quietly achieved a Breakthrough to the Late-stage Spirit Venerable Realm and quietly went to the Holy Realm.

But to the outside world, Nangong Aotian claimed that they were in seclusion, concealing this fact.

...

At the Prince of Zhenbeis Residence, the moment Shangguan Yuexi walked out, Nangong Yu woke up.

He sighed faintly and said, "Where are Ying You, Shadow Nether, Shadow Illusion, and Shadow Fiend?"

"Subordinates are here!"

Nangong Yu looked at them. He had already achieved a Breakthrough to the Middle Stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm, but the cultivation of the Commander-level Divine Shadow Emissaries remained at the Early Stage of the Dominator Realm.

He did not know if they could only have this much strength, or if they were restricted by something.

But fortunately, he had now summoned two more Commander-level Divine Shadow Emissaries, six tiangang generals-level, and twelve Shadow Fiend-level Divine Shadow Emissaries.

Now the 45 generals were all at the Middle Stage of the Supreme Saint Realm!

In addition, there were 700 Divine Shadow Squads, totaling eight hundred squads, which meant 800 Semi-Saints, and nearly eighty thousand Spirit Emperors!

With this power, he seemed to fear no one.

Except for the Heavenly Dao!

Nangong Yu looked at the four, then said leisurely, "Leave Tiangang, Earth Leader, and the four Shadow Fiends, as well as 100 Divine Shadow Squads. You four take the others to the Holy Realm!"

"Understood!"

The four nodded in agreement, but seeing Nangong Yu wave his hand, "Don't be in such a hurry, I haven't finished speaking yet!"
