Chapter 12: My Brother Wushi, Born with the Likelihood of Immortality!

Chapter 12: My Brother Wushi, Born with the Likelihood of Immortality!

Wushi's birth didn't cause much of a stir.

All the extraordinary phenomena were concealed, and no one knew that Xihuang had another child.

"Relax, both mother and child are safe." Shaohua smiled, stepped out of the Immortal Ascension Site, and released the suppression of the Verdant Gold Tower of Immortal Tears. The anxious old father was finally able to enter.

From then on, it was up to the three of them.

"Wushi has been born. If I remember correctly, he can attain Dao in five hundred years. I really wish he could start his cultivation now. With him, nothing would be a problem. What does the Underworld or the Forbidden Zone matter?"

She looked up at the sky, sighed inwardly, and felt a bit melancholic.

Even her parents had underestimated Wushi. They thought at most he would attain Dao in the future, but they never imagined he would be so astonishing, sweeping through everything, with nothing capable of stopping him.

Who stands supreme at the end of the Immortal Path? None remain when facing Wushi!

Recalling her past life, she felt an intense surge of emotion when she read those words, finding Wushi truly formidable, beyond just the word "strong."

In this life, having reached the pinnacle of Alternative Dao Attainment, she finally understood just how heaven-defying those words were.

"Haha, what's wrong with me? Why do I almost lose my resolve when I see Wushi? Where did my usual calm and composure go?"

"It's because I care too much about the pressure from the Underworld and the Taichu Ancient Mine, and about my parents!"

"As long as I stay firm in my beliefs, there will be no confusion. No matter how strong the enemy or how great the obstacles, I will be myself."

Shaohua's fair and slender neck lifted, revealing a delicate clavicle. Her face broke into a breathtaking smile, beautiful in a heart-stopping way.

Seeing the Verdant Gold Tower of Immortal Tears floating in mid-air, its light streaming in countless rays, its immortal aura shimmering like tears of the immortals, illuminating Kunlun.

She waved her hand, and the Immortal Gold Tower slowly descended, spinning and shrinking until it rested in her palm, no more than a foot high, its body a clear and translucent green, exquisite and beautiful.

A warm and friendly thought came from the deity within the tower, expressing gratitude.

"There's no need to thank me, Auntie Lv. We are family", Shaohua said with a smile, gently stroking the tower.

An Emperor's Artifact carries the Dao and laws of the emperor, closely tied to their well-being. In a sense, it is a continuation of the emperor's life. Therefore, Shaohua treated the Immortal Gold Tower as family, showing it the respect it deserved.

The reason the Immortal Gold Tower was grateful was simple. Shaohua had discovered the Immortal Ascension Site in Kunlun and shared it with others. Xihuang used it to close off and comprehend the Dao, studying the incomplete Myriad Source Cauldron, and naturally made some progress.

Thus, the Immortal Gold Tower also benefited greatly. Some Immortal Dao inscriptions were engraved on its body, though it was still far from being a half-Immortal Artifact, it had undoubtedly taken a step forward, making it more extraordinary than ordinary Emperor's Artifacts.

The family temporarily settled here, accompanying young Wushi's growth.

"Sis~"

A little boy with a soft, babyish voice called out, wobbling out of the Myriad Source Cauldron cradle, wearing a small Immortal Robe forged from the leaves of the Ancient Life Tree. He stumbled along the Immortal Pool.

He was only about a year old, a plump and tender little boy.

Perhaps because he saw Shaohua first when he was born, the little boy was very close to this sister.

This made the old father quite sad, as Wushi didn't like being held by him, always getting pricked by his beard.

Even the mother felt a bit jealous, outright stating that sometimes she couldn't tell who had actually gone through the hardship of giving birth.

"Take it easy, don't rush."

Shaohua squatted down, her green skirt touching the ground. She looked at the adorable little boy, her face filled with affectionate smiles, and gently patted his small head.

"Big Sister, I want a hug~" Little Wushi, who could barely speak clearly, had already learned how to be adorable.

Shaohua reached out and picked him up, gently swaying him.

"Big Sister smells so nice." Little Wushi loved sticking close to his big sister, stretching out his little hands to hug her and giving her a playful bite, leaving a trail of drool.

Shaohua smiled indulgently. A bite was just a bite; this was only possible because Wushi was born extraordinary. Otherwise, even if she controlled her strength, his little teeth wouldn't stand a chance.

A sly glint flashed in her eyes as an Echo Stone quietly vanished.

Little Wushi, so easy to handle!

"Big Sister, I want to fly~"

Little Wushi was full of energy and never seemed to rest. He turned to pester his big sister to take him flying, and Shaohua naturally agreed. Being with such a cute little one made her feel much younger.

Above Kunlun, a string of joyful laughter echoed.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Empress Xihuang and her husband were discussing how to handle Wushi.

"This child is truly extraordinary, perfectly blending the strengths of the Saint Body and the Dao Embryo, making him an Innate Saint Body Dao Embryo", Xihuang sighed, no one understanding Wushi's extraordinary nature better than she did.

"If I don't temper his power and essence, he will be born a saint. Although he has no cultivation now, his realm is still intact. Once he starts practicing, he will advance rapidly. He was born to cultivate."

"I see it too. He is a natural immortal seed, perhaps capable of breaking the ancient curse and creating a myth of two emperors in one sect!" Wuning said.

It was said that the descendants of ancient emperors could not attain Dao, and one sect could not have two emperors. This curse, unbroken through the ages, had become a common consensus in the history of cultivation.

But now, this couple felt their child could create a myth.

"But he cannot coexist in the same era as us. Otherwise, he will be too deeply influenced by me and will be burdened by various restrictions", Xihuang said sorrowfully, her tone filled with reluctance.

She had already missed watching her daughter grow up, and now her young son would also have to leave. This was too painful for a mother.

"This is not his era. We still have great enemies to settle with. These years, I have always felt uneasy. If I hadn't been in seclusion, something might have already gone wrong", Wuning said, his brows furrowed.

"Don't worry. Together, we can face any enemy in the world. Besides, we haven't stopped advancing these past years. Just don't let Shaohua get involved in these matters", Xihuang said, holding her partner's hand.

"Yes, let Shaohua protect Wushi. If there is a Dark Turmoil in the future, they will need to stabilize it", Wuning agreed, thinking this was the best arrangement.

They believed Wushi could attain Dao and become an emperor, even an immortal. If he couldn't become an immortal, he and his sister could still rule the heavens and earth!

"Weren't we supposed to return to the holy land? Why are you whispering about something?" Shaohua, holding little Wushi, approached them.

"Whispering secrets", Wushi said, excitedly thinking he had discovered something important.

"We were just talking about how you and Wushi have exceptional talents and will surely attain Dao and become immortals in the future", their father replied without a change in expression.

"I know my own limits."

Shaohua wasn't buying it, but she lifted Wushi, her eyes flashing with an inexplicable light, and said with unwavering determination:

"My brother Wushi has the posture of an immortal!"
