"Since you’ve decided to keep it a secret, why today have you decided to reveal everything to ?"
Uncle Deaf’s eyes glead with light, a light of hope: "From certain days, young miss, you’ve changed, more and more like the Tang family. You’re completely different from the miss, heaven hasn’t forsaken our Tang family after all."
"Originally, even if you all didn’t return to the Tang family, I was planning to find an opportunity to bring you back. Moreover... you truly are of the Tang family bloodline; without having studied incense making, you can still create special fragrances."
"The Tang family bloodline permits only the slling of fragrances before sixteen; after sixteen, you can start making fragrances. Those who can create special fragrances can beco the direct lineage of the Tang family."
Su Li speculated, perhaps the rumors were not without so truth; perhaps the Tang family’s bloodline had a touch of peculiarity.
Uncle Deaf must have misunderstood, mistaking Su Li’s newly made Combined Fragrance for the Tang family’s special fragrance, indicating there were commonalities between them.
What the Tang family once speculated could be true, maybe immortals did erge from the Tang family’s ancestors.
When Uncle Deaf spoke of the Combined Fragrance Su Li made, he was exceedingly excited, saying: "The Combined Fragrance made by young miss is superior to any I’ve ever slled while following the Family Head."
"It stirs the heart, calms the human soul." Uncle Deaf deeply inhaled the lingering fragrance in the room, intoxicated.
Su Li: "Uncle Deaf, sll another Coiling Incense."
Su Li gracefully lit a green Coiling Incense, and as the incense ignited, Uncle Deaf was trendously shocked, rushing forward a few steps.
The green smoke seed guided, moving towards Uncle Deaf, entering through every pore of his body.
Feeling thirty years of hidden injuries gradually healing, broken ridians regrowing, Uncle Deaf was stunned to the point of being breathless.
Even at the Tang family’s peak, the most skilled incense maker couldn’t produce such miraculous fragrances.
"This incense is made from precious dicinal materials extracted from various incense powders; constrained by the purity of raw materials, it is not perfect, but it is effective in treating your injuries."
Hearing the underlying aning in Su Li’s words, Uncle Deaf was so surprised, his breathing hastened, he eagerly asked: "Young miss, are you suggesting that with better materials, you could create even more powerful fragrances?"
Su Li smiled but did not answer, only said: "Fragrance is everywhere, penetrates everywhere, easier to be absorbed and refined into the body, thus producing imdiate, extraordinary effects."
Uncle Deaf suddenly swung a fist into the void, with layers of airwaves the punch created a massive explosive sound.
After punching, Uncle Deaf licked his dry lips as if he hadn’t had enough, saying: "My body is fully healed, my strength has restored to its peak."
"In the past, had I not pretended to be deaf and dumb, I wouldn’t have survived to this day. Those people were so cautious, confirming my ridians were completely severed before letting go. Although my condition was severe, I naturally retained so strength due to abnormal ridians."
"Those who were involved in plotting against the Tang family, I’ve gotten rid of many over the years, only a few large families remain that are out of reach. Now that my strength is restored, the old accounts should be settled." Uncle Deaf’s eyes revealed a deep-seated killing intent.
Uncle Deaf quickly realized, bowing humbly, "Apologies, did I startle you, young miss?"
Su Li shook her head, "No, I wasn’t."
She hadn’t expected that moving into the Tang Residence would unravel such a grand story of the past.
Uncle Deaf: "Young miss, follow ."
Uncle Deaf led Su Li to the center of the space in front of the main entrance, to the ignorant, it seed he was aimlessly circling, but Su Li could discern he walked every step with careful calculation, connecting the previous path to form a peculiar, ethereal pattern.
It’s a special prohibition chanism, not complex, but such ans only exist in the Cultivation World. Placed in the Xilin Dynasty, where Immortal Trace was long gone, it’s remarkable, no wonder those people searched everywhere in the Tang family without finding what they wanted.
This ti, Su Li confird, this small world is indeed a cultivation world.
What people of the Xilin Dynasty believed to be immortal fate should be cultivators. Across the Black Dead Sea should be the Cultivation World.
The Tang family’s true heritage is right underfoot.
The grinding sound of stone echoed, the stones in the ground split open from the center, a winding stone stairway erged before them.
Uncle Deaf went ahead, and Su Li followed, once both entered the underground stone chamber, the stone slabs above quickly closed, leaving no trace.
Su Li felt as if she entered a second Tang family sinking into the earth.
The size of the Tang family’s house above was mirrored by the grandeur of the underground stone palace.
Pavilions, terraces, and towers were all complete, and faux flowers and trees were plentiful.
But unlike the Tang Residence above ground, the rooms on the surface were for sleeping, whereas the underground rooms were transford into incense making rooms.
Inside, tools were complete, precious raw materials were abundant, ginseng snowdrops worth a fortune piled carelessly in a corner, showcasing the Tang family’s deep-rooted heritage of luxury.
Uncle Deaf explained: "What Su Mo’er took that day was only the Tang family’s apparent wealth, but in reality... the Tang family’s true heritage lies underground."
Uncle Deaf led Su Li to the storage room in the Underground Palace, opening it to reveal heaps of gold, silver jewelry, and Luminous Pearls.
Su Li: "....."
"The Family Head said, if the miss can’t uphold the Tang family, these things will only bring her trouble, rather let them sink with the Tang family." Uncle Deaf clasped his hands, bowing twice, "Tang family ancestors bless us, young miss perfectly inherited the Tang family bloodline, her talent supersedes any elite disciple of the past."
Perhaps it was from years without speaking, Uncle Deaf, newly free from disguise, beca excessively talkative.
His voice transford from originally hoarse and stamring to smooth and natural.
Su Li glanced expressionlessly at Uncle Deaf who was thanking the heavens and ancestors, turned away, eyes shut to avoid distractions.
Believe it or not, I’m grateful to myself.
It’s purely coincidental that the incense path she chose matched precisely with the Tang family’s heritage.
Uncle Deaf led Su Li to a study-like stone chamber, at the center of the bookshelf was a thin, ancient text, considerably lost in words.
And on the surrounding shelves were hundreds of books, all extensions and supplents repaired by the Tang family after the ancient text.
Su Li flipped through it casually, noting that so incense-making materials could only be found in the Cultivation World; according to the text, the fragrances made could indeed kill invisibly or save and heal.
This was the first genuine incense Dao heritage Su Li had seen. But it was not profound, the cultivation of the cultivator who left this text should not have been high.
