Why did you provoke her? Even Heaven itself is afraid of her.

"Xiu'er, tell me, what exactly happened when your cultivation was destroyed?"

Long Xiu lowered his eyes slightly; even now, he still didn't want his mother to know.

He didn't want to hurt or upset him.

“Brother, I think there’s no need to hide it from Mother anymore. If you won’t tell me, I will.”

Seeing Long Xiu like this, Long Xiaoxiao knew that he was reluctant to do it.

But she also understood that only by telling her mother the truth would she no longer have any leniency towards her father.

Long Xiu no longer objected.

"Mother, do you still remember the Emperor's supreme bone?"

Consort Shu nodded to indicate that she knew. That person had specifically instructed her not to publicize the matter for Xiu'er's safety.

Could it be...

There seems to be a hunch.

Upon seeing this, Long Xiaoxiao quickly said:

"Back then, my brother's cultivation was not destroyed by someone, but by my father... by my father forcibly removing the Supreme Bone from my brother, which caused him to lose all his cultivation."

In the end, even after so many years, and even though her younger brother's cultivation has greatly improved, she still feels sorry for him.

"what!"

Consort Shu's eyes widened, filled with shock and anger. Her body trembled slightly from the extreme emotional shock, as if she could not believe her ears.

She never imagined that the truth behind Long Xiu's complete loss of cultivation was actually like this.

"Why is he so heartless? Long Xiu is his own flesh and blood!"

Consort Shu's voice was choked with sobs, almost a scream.

Seeing this, Long Xiaoxiao felt sorry for her mother, but she did not intend to give up. She pressed her advantage and continued:

“Mother, do you know? Father has been plotting against the Supreme Bone in my brother’s body ever since he found out that my brother has it.”

"At the beginning?"

"That's right. At the beginning, Mother, do you remember when my eldest brother's cultivation suddenly increased so much?"

Long Xiaoxiao suddenly looked at Consort Shu and asked.

Consort Shu frowned, trying hard to search her memory for relevant fragments.

Finally, as if remembering something, he suddenly looked up at Long Xiu and Long Xiaoxiao.

"Your father gave Xiu'er's supreme bone to your eldest brother!"

Long Xiaoxiao closed her eyes and nodded, saying:

"Yes, that's right. Father Emperor gave the Supreme Bone from the younger brother's body to the eldest brother."

Upon hearing this, Consort Shu's eyes were filled with despair and disbelief. Her body went limp, and she uncontrollably took a few steps back.

"Mother concubine!"

If Long Xiu hadn't been quick-witted and stepped forward to support him, he probably would have collapsed to the ground.

"How could he do this? How could he!"

Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs!

Why can't this matter be publicized for the sake of Xiu'er's life?

It turns out it was all for his own selfish reasons.

What humanity does he have left?

Consort Shu's eyes reddened again as she looked at Long Xiu, her eyes filled with heartache and guilt.

"Xiu'er, does it hurt?"

Long Xiu wanted to say it didn't hurt, but that scene reappeared in his mind, and he just couldn't bring himself to say the words "it doesn't hurt."

Looking at Long Xiu like this, what else didn't she know?

How could it not hurt when the Supreme Bone is removed from the body?

"Xiu'er, I'm sorry."

I'm sorry, she only found out now.

Long Xiu felt a lump in his throat, and the tears that had been welling up in his eyes could no longer be held back and fell:

"Mother, it's not your fault. If it weren't for you protecting me all these years, I would probably be dead by now."

At this moment, Consort Shu no longer felt any affection for the Emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom; her heart was filled only with hatred.

......

Lingyun and Moyu left the mother and her two children to comfort them.

After a long time, Long Xiu told Consort Shu about everything that had happened.

After learning that his master had not only restored his cultivation but also implanted a divine bone even more powerful than the Supreme Bone into him, Consort Shu was more shocked than grateful to Ling Yun.

My understanding of Lingyun has been refreshed once again.

As for the identity of the Ling family patriarch of the Azure Dragon Kingdom, she knew nothing about the outside world after she was imprisoned.

"Senior Ling, thank you so much for giving Xiu'er a second chance at life. As her mother, I have no way to repay you. Xiu'er is who she is today entirely thanks to your wholehearted teaching and strong support."

Consort Shu looked at Ling Yun with eyes full of sincerity and respect.

“As I said, he is my apprentice, and I will naturally do everything in my power to protect him.”

As he spoke, Ling Yun looked at Long Xiu again and said:

"You three have finished speaking, haven't you? Now it's time to go find your so-called father."

Upon hearing this, a resolute glint flashed in Long Xiu's eyes:

"Yes, Master."

He was determined to make that person pay for what he had done.

Besides him, there was also his so-called eldest brother.

Do you really think that taking his things makes them yours?

He wants to make sure that whatever he ate, he vomits out.

After some discussion, the group split into two groups.

After all, this eldest prince doesn't live in the palace.

Mo Yu then went to bring him into the palace.

To avoid unnecessary trouble, Ling Yun left Consort Shu and Long Xiaoxiao here and set up an array that prevented anyone from entering.

Although Consort Shu and Long Xiaoxiao also wanted to go and see the man's miserable state with their own eyes, they knew that if they went, they might become a burden to him.

As night fell, the palace was brightly lit, and the sounds of string and wind instruments filled the air.

Ling Yun used his spiritual power to scan the entire palace, then led Long Xiu directly to the study where the Emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom was currently located.

In the study, they saw the Emperor of Xuanwu sitting high on the dragon throne, talking with several ministers about something.

Long Xiu's eyes burned with rage as he stared intently at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure inside the room, wishing he could rush in immediately and tear this person to pieces.

"Go ahead and vent your anger. No one can stop you."

Ling Yun looked at Long Xiu, who was suppressing his anger, and spoke up.

Looking at his master, Long Xiu's anger was inexplicably calmed down, allowing him to regain his composure.

"who?"

Ling Yun made no attempt to conceal their presence as he spoke, and they were instantly detected.

boom!

Long Xiu kicked open the study door.

The door was flung open, sending splinters flying.

The emperor and his ministers inside the room were all greatly alarmed.

The emperor instantly rose from his dragon throne, his eyes wide with fury, and summoned his weapon, shouting:

"Who dares to trespass into my study!"

"Father, it's been so long, do you still remember me?"

Long Xiu, sword in hand, strode into the study, his chilling killing intent causing the temperature inside to plummet.

Looking at that face that he could never forget, even if he turned to ashes, he squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth.

The Emperor of Xuanwu Kingdom was startled when he saw who it was.

He had already sent people to Qinglong Kingdom to capture him, but those useless people disappeared as soon as they arrived. He knew that this rebellious son would come back sooner or later.

He never expected to return so quickly.

Moreover, even though the person had already appeared in front of him, none of the guards noticed him!
