They are really not NPCs, please stop it, lady.

This is the key point!

Whether as a mother or as an elder, I have gone too far!

How can I face my son in the future?

The more she thought about it, the more distressed Bai Suya felt.

If I continue like this, what will I do if my true identity is exposed one day?

Both the master and Xue'er are sharp-minded people, so it is really difficult to keep the secret from them.

Bai Suya has been trying her best, but she also has to think about the worst possible scenario.

The scene at that moment...Bai Suya didn't even dare to think about it.

At this moment, a familiar cry suddenly came to her ears.

"Mom, Mom, are you there?"

Is this... the voice of my own son?

That’s not right. Hasn’t my son already gone to Xuantian Sect?

It's only been a few days, how could he have time to come back and see me?

How did he know he was here?

More importantly, Ye Cangxue, who had been with me for many years, didn’t recognize me in my current state.

Even though my son is more familiar with me, he can't see through me at a glance, right?

Is it that his son has returned, or is someone pretending to be his son's voice to test him?

If it really was his son who came back, and he saw that he was actually with his good brother...

That’s even more unbearable to imagine, it’s simply hell within hell!

Bai Suya pretended to be confused, and looked around nervously with suspicion in her heart.

But she didn't see anyone around her.

But then, Lin Fan's voice rang out again, with an excitement that was hard to conceal.

"Is mother looking for me? No need to look for me, I'm not with mother. I'm still in Xuantian Sect."

Are you still in Xuantian Sect?

Is that... the art of transmitting sound over a thousand miles?

The knowledgeable wife immediately understood the principle behind the sound and her anxiety subsided.

As expected, Lin Fan's subsequent report proved her guess.

"Mother, I just learned the Thousand Mile Sound Transmission Technique from my master."

"If I want to communicate with others, I still need some medium and means, but between us, mother and son, we don't even need an additional medium. It's really convenient."

"So that's how it is... My Fan'er has finally made it big."

Bai Suya was completely relieved and said with a little relief, she looked like an ordinary mother.

"A child dares not disappoint his mother's expectations, so he will naturally try his best."

Lin Fan smiled a little embarrassedly, and then excitedly told his mother about his recent achievements.

"Mother, don't worry about this year. Although I have only been an apprentice for a few days, I have already successfully become a disciple, and I am also an orthodox Xuanzong."

"That is to say, my status in the sect is still very high. No one can bully me. I can learn a lot, and I don't have to worry about resources."

It has to be said that Lin Fan's development in Xuantian Sect can be said to be very rapid, as he was able to become an orthodox sect within just a few days of entry.

Even though Bai Suya believed in her son, she was very pleased with his achievements.

"Yes, Fan'er, you did a great job. I have always believed in you, and you have lived up to your hard work and talent."

"That's natural. I always keep my mother's teachings in mind."

"Well...but Fan'er, you still need to calm down and avoid being arrogant or impatient. Temporary gains and losses are nothing. The long-term future is what matters most."

Bai Suya smiled gently, then gave serious instructions.

"Don't worry, mother. I know what's going on."

Faced with his mother's nagging, Lin Fan was very respectful and obedient.

But then, he changed the subject.

"You don't need to worry about me, but how are you doing now?"

"After I left, I was left alone. I was really worried."

But his concern just hit his wife's soft spot, making Bai Suya's expression instantly stiff.

She coughed lightly and said calmly,

"Of course, I'm fine here. Can't I take care of myself?"

"That's good. I trust you, but I'm alone and powerless. You should never try to show off when encountering difficulties."

Lin Fan said with some worry, then advised,

"If anything happens to Mother, you can go find Brother Gu. Brother Gu and I have a deep brotherly bond, so he won't stand idly by."

"I am far away from my mother now and cannot serve her all the time, but Brother Gu is the person I trust the most. I have the most confidence in his character."

"So, if Brother Gu can help me take care of my mother, I can rest assured."

From his words, he still hoped that Gu Nian, his good brother, could help him take care of his mother.

But he didn't know that his mother had been completely silenced by his words.

Indeed, your good brother really takes good care of me as a mother...

God knows how he has been getting along with this gentleman during this period!

But when I think about it carefully, it seems that my master has never taken the initiative to do anything for me, but I have always been the one taking the initiative.

Oh, it was me who seduced her, that’s okay.

Facing her son's expectations, she almost said quietly, "Mom, I am well taken care of by others..."

Oops, why does it feel like the owner has become the villain?

But the master is the kindest and most innocent one. Compared with Dongjun, I, who constantly and actively seduces and teases the master, am more guilty of a heinous crime.

Ahem… Master, I’m sorry, it’s my fault…

Bai Suya inexplicably felt a sense of guilt in her heart.

But there is also good news. Now I finally have the power to protect my loved ones!

The son entered the long-awaited Xuanzong, the master recovered and embarked on the path of cultivating immortals, Xue'er was with her lover, and Dongjun's dream of protecting her husband was also realized.

We all have a bright future, don’t we?

Now, the only thing I need to do is to hide my identity and not be discovered.

But... where Bai Suya couldn't see, Lin Fan was far from being as relaxed and comfortable as he said.

The strong boy always hides everything that is unfavorable to him when facing his mother, and chooses to report good news but not bad news.

For example, just because of an entrance test, he was specially selected by the celestial leader to be his personal disciple, and thus suffered criticism and condemnation from the entire sect.

Voices like "He is only at the Qi training stage, a newly initiated disciple, how can he deserve to be the sect master's personal disciple, and I will never accept it no matter what" can be heard everywhere in the Xuantian Sect.

Countless malicious intent surged towards the young man who had just joined the sect.

As a newcomer, Lin Fan has attracted too much attention.

At this moment, his tests and pressures are about to come!

Lin Fan, who is alone and weak, is like a small boat sailing against the huge waves. If he is not careful, he will be doomed!

The sound of crows could be heard on the desolate hillside. Unknown tombstones were scattered everywhere. As far as the eye could see, there were nameless graves one after another.

This is the final resting place for nameless people. Being buried here means that they have no past and no one will remember them anymore.

Not to mention ordinary times, even on the days of tomb worship and burning incense every year, there is no one to be seen here. No matter what time, few people come here, and even the locals are not familiar with this place.

But for Gu Nian, he was quite familiar with this place.

After all, as the person who buried his mother personally, Gu Nian deliberately chose this place.

It’s not that Gu Nian doesn’t like her mother, but what Gu Nian does is not to attract attention.

In order to hide the fact from her stepmother who had ill intentions towards herself and her mother, Gu Nian had no choice but to do this.

Therefore, after burying his mother here, he rarely came here again, for he was worried that the vicious stepmother would follow the clues.

At this moment, coming here again is already a belated tribute for Gu Nian.

With mixed feelings, Gu Nian set foot here, but as soon as he arrived, all he saw were broken monuments everywhere.

Moreover, looking at the fresh fractures, it is obvious that they were destroyed not long ago.

After stroking the broken edge of the nearest tombstone, Gu Nian examined it carefully for a moment and frowned.

Who would come to destroy the burial place of such an unknown person?

He looked around and soon heard a noisy sound not far away.

That was the sound of a hammer smashing the tombstone, mixed with the sound of commands and the sound of a shovel digging the ground.

His brows furrowed even deeper, and at this moment Gu Nian had a bad feeling in his heart.

The only person buried here who can be considered an important person and is still remembered by people is... my own mother!

Is it...

Gu Nian didn't have time to think about it and walked quickly towards the direction where the sound came from.

Not far from Gu Nian and the others, a group of people were carrying out forced demolition.

But they are not here just to destroy this place.

Every time they arrived at a grave, they would carefully examine the tombstones and break them. After digging up the graves, they would also carefully examine the identities of the people inside.

Although they have all turned to bones, some clues can still be seen from the clothes buried with them that have not yet rotted.

They seemed to be looking for something.

Among the people working there was a cool, beautiful and plump woman.

The woman was dressed like a housekeeper and had a pretty face, but her cold and arrogant demeanor overshadowed her, leaving only a hint of coldness and arrogance.

She was wearing a spotless and dignified dress, without a speck of dust or stains or any wrinkles or folds.

Even a pair of thick-soled hollow shoes were wrapped in a layer of true energy and could not be contaminated by any dust.

Everyone else was busy, but she was the only one standing away from the crowd, covering her mouth with a white handkerchief.

She walked very carefully, and had to put a layer of true energy on the soles of her shoes first. She looked at the dusty graves with disgust and aversion.

Obviously, this is a beautiful woman with severe mysophobia, and her whole body is spotless.

Soon, one of the busy people came out, stopped far away from her, and said respectfully,

"Butler Lin, this, this place doesn't seem to be..."

It's not that he wants to do so, but he can't get close, and he dare not get close. As long as he takes another step, this woman will probably kill him with a palm, without mercy!

It seemed that in the eyes of Steward Lin, these servants were as insignificant as dust, yet disgusting.

"Not yet?"

Butler Lin frowned, his face looked a little ugly, and he was already a little impatient.

She waved her hand and said impatiently,

"Since we can't find them, we'll destroy them all, leaving no one behind!"

"I don't care about you guys, anyway, you have to dig deep to find it!"

At this time, Gu Nian had already arrived here and saw the woman.

It turned out to be her!

Gu Nian took a deep breath, looking slightly annoyed.
