Although Liu Jian didn't seem to be moving, Liu i knew that he wasn't dead, and at most he had just lost consciousness.
After all, Liu i didn't want to kill him in the first place, otherwise, forget about Liu Jian, the entire 'Floating Cloud sect' would be unable to stand up to her undead army.
However, despite not killing him, this didn't an that Liu i had any positive feelings towards her father.
Instead, she directly ignored him, as she continued to fly towards the 'inner city'.
A few monts barely passed before Liu i's eyes were locked on a small house near the main hall where Liu Jian had landed.
It was a relatively simple house, but it made Liu i suddenly halt in mid-air, as emotions suddenly overflowed her heart.
This was her ho for so many years.
This was the place where she and her mother lived.
As Liu Jian's second wife, her mother didn't live in Liu Jian's palace at the center of the city, but she had her own house allocated to her.
After taking a deep breath, Liu i didn't step inside the house but instead, she circled around it and walked straight to its backyard, while leaving the 2 undead knights to stand guard near the house's entrance, not allowing anyone to co close.
A beautiful middle-aged woman dressed in silver-white robes was sitting on a chair, and was petting a huge bird that was lying next to her.
It was a huge bird more than 20m(66ft) long, with a yellow beak and bright red wings.
This was the most common use of transportation used by the high-ranking mbers of the 'Floating Cloud sect', the rank 3 'red-winged condor'.
This 'red-winged condor' however, didn't belong to the sect, but was the personal magic beast of Liu i's mother.
Almost as if sensing soone coming, the condor raised its head and looked at the entrance of the backyard, where a white-robed young woman was standing quietly.
Liu i smiled gently once she saw the condor, but tears started to flow from her eyes once she saw the middle-aged woman who was still petting the condor's head.
Her facial features were very similar to Liu i's, aside from the wrinkles around her eyes, and her black hair that were actually at a shoulder's length.
The beautiful middle-aged woman followed the condor's gaze, and was stunned when she saw Liu i staring at her.
Liu i opened her mouth a few tis, but only a single word ca out, one that was filled with all of her emotions
''Mother!''
As this sentence left Liu i's mouth, the beautiful middle-aged woman hurriedly stood up from her chair, while her eyes stared at Liu i in disbelief.
Soon, her expression was replaced with one of joy, as she flew forward and placed her arms around Liu i, hugging her tightly as she said
''i'er!''
Hearing her mother's voice, the tears from Liu i's eyes didn't stop flowing as she stretched her arms to hug her back.
Although it had only been a year, Liu i knew that her mother must have been worried to death for her.
After all, before she had left to enter the 'Vermilion realm', Liu i hadn't dared to tell her that she would try to pass through the second test by herself in order to enter the 'Night star continent'.
Liu i clearly knew that aside from Liu Changpun who had the entire strength of the entire sect in his palm, any other disciple who wanted to try and pass through the second level would definitely face extre danger.
Her mother had also participated in the 'Vermilion realm's' opening in the past and knew how dangerous it was.
No matter what, to a mother, it was better to do everything she could and even argue with her husband over Liu i's marriage, than having her child risk her life.
Liu i however also knew that she wouldn't have been allowed to go, no matter what, if she had revealed her intentions to her mother, so she could only hide this matter in the bottom of her heart.
She had already tried everything she could to change Liu Jian's mind, and had even begged him countless tis, but in the end, Liu Jian had simply refused.
Since Liu i's marriage could be helpful to unite the sect, making the ng family even further connected to their Liu family, Liu Jian wouldn't care about his daughter's feelings.
This was the difference in importance between Liu i and Liu Changpun.
After hugging Liu i, a serious expression soon appeared in Lin Huefeng's eyes, as she looked at her and she asked in a worried tone
''i'er, where have you been for the past year?''
Looking at the worried look in her mother's eyes, Liu i took a deep breath, before she started to explain everything, starting from the mont she had left the 'Floating Cloud city' to enter the 'Vermilion realm'.
At the sa ti, Shun Long had a smile on his face as he sat on Little Silver's back in the sky and watched Liu i who was explaining her experiences to her mother, before his eyes were quickly drawn to the main hall.
The Elders of the sect had all gathered around the unconscious Liu Jian, while many inner disciples were watching from the distance.
Those who hadn't seen Liu Jian's fight with the black-armored knights had shocked and fearful looks on their faces when they saw the sect master's condition.
They had already heard that sothing had happened, but none of them knew who could possibly send their sect master into such a miserable state.
As for the Elders of the sect and the few inner disciples who had actually witnessed the scene, none of them dared to talk about it behind Liu Jian's back.
It was only after Grand Elder Lan Hong gave him a healing pill, that Liu Jian finally opened his eyes.
Shun Long however didn't seem to care about Liu i's father, as his eyes spotted the familiar silhouette of a chubby young man in green robes.
After thinking for a while, Shun Long's lips curved up, before he left Little Silver's back and disappeared on the spot.
Fatty Fu who had a few other inner disciples of the sect around him, was suddenly stunned when he saw a figure appearing in front of him out of thin air.
The other inner disciples hurriedly stepped back as well, almost unable to realize what was going on.
Seeing the handso young man in blue-robes who was now standing in front of him, looking slightly different than he did in the past, Fu Li only took a few monts to recognize him, before his eyes widened in disbelief as he blurted out
''Brother Shun?''
Shun Long smiled at Fu Li who was still staring at him in shock, before he nodded his head and said smilingly
''Fatty, long ti no see!''
