Chapter 699: Chapter 588: Born with Jade in Mouth, Immortal Enters the Scene

Aside from Wang Yuan who noticed his younger brother Gao Jisheng appearing right away,

nobody else discovered that a crisis of pulling out the rug was already spirially forming and dispersing throughout.

"Underground Master!

That was close, indeed it’s necessary to have a few secret trump cards unknown to anyone, so at the critical moment, I could unexpectedly play them and trap those enemies hiding in the gutters."

After his initial shock, Wang Yuan quickly understood the cause and effect, and a trace of fear couldn’t help but rise in his heart.

Suppressed by the power of the Underground Master, he indeed failed to detect the arrival of "Filth Cleaning."

But it was this suppression that allowed him to identify the ghost’s identity right away, and what the Underground Master was attempting to do.

Luckily, the foundation of "Reincarnation Lake" was exactly the "Six Paths Reincarnation Law" stolen by the Killing Tree, which was perfectly countered by Emperor Mu’s lifebound magic treasure "Six Paths Golden Wheel."

If it hadn’t been for his second brother taking on the role of "Old Six" and laying an ambush earlier, this time, they might have indeed been oblivious and let the Underground Master steal their home.

At this moment, Wang Yuan was not worried about "Filth Cleaning" being sent to Sewing Machine Hell and tipping off the Underground Master.

No matter how high her powers were? Could they surpass those of the native Heavenly Dao?

Once inside Sewing Machine Hell, no one can send out messages or escape from the cage.

Wang Yuan had just ordered Yama’s Avatar, who had returned to Fengdu City to manage the situation, to deal with "Filth Cleaning."

Suddenly, he was distracted by Huang Wu tugging at his sleeve.

"Look at the sky!"

As the twin dragon and phoenix were born one after another, a multicolored cloud rose up above the maternity room, instantly capturing everyone’s attention back.

"This is... Innate Strange Phenomena [Qingyun Covering the Top].

Congratulations, Your Highness, congratulations!"

Before the children were brought out, two officials from the Imperial Observatory Bureau who had been waiting outside the maternity room to record the children’s horoscopes loudly congratulated Zhou Jinhuan.

The Zhou Family, being of Imperial lineage, had a heritage far surpassing those noble families with centuries of history.

Having gathered many talents from Great Yan, even though the place of childbirth wasn’t the Prince Mansion, the related ceremonies were indispensable.

These two officials, who served in the Imperial Observatory Bureau during the dynastic period and were proficient in "Dragon Ascension Technique," were of course very familiar with such celestial signs at the birth of nobility.

"Royal Praise" says: "The heavens do not speak; they show signs to people, blessing with radiant light, celebrating with auspicious clouds."

"Spring and Autumn Analogue Diagram" records: "Before the rise of Shun, a yellow cloud rose in the hall. Before Tang came to power, a white cloud entered the room."

This "Qingyun Covering the Top" also known as "Jingyun Covering the Top," represents the concentration of "Prosperous Qi" and "Emperor’s Qi," descended in response to the Perception from Heavenly People.

As with [Red Light Surrounding Room Image], [Purple Qi Comes from the East], and other innate celestial signs like [Dragon Rhinoceros Sun Horn Image], all are definitive signs of an emperor.

In times of peace, if a child from any family is born under such conditions, and by coincidence an Observatory Qi Observer saw it,

The Emperor would almost certainly issue an imperial decree to immediately drown the child, and who knows, maybe even risk the lives of the entire family.

But in this chaotic era, it is not a hindrance.

Zhou Jinhuan, Wang Yuan, Huang Wu, and their relatives, of course, all had faces full of joy.

"Hahaha, the Heavenly Destiny is with me!"

This phenomenon occurring in another’s house might cause hesitation, but in one’s own house, of course, the more glorious, the better.

Moreover, what does "The heavens do not speak; they show signs to people" imply?

God doesn’t speak, but signals through phenomena.

Translate this [Qingyun Covering the Top Image] into plain language.

Isn’t it just the Heavenly Dao Master patting his own shoulder saying:

"Wow, unbelievable, you have a Spirit Light bursting from the top of your head, do you know? Keep it up, the great responsibility of saving the populace is now yours!"

However, before they could enjoy their happiness for long, seeing the pair of infants being held by the palace Nanny, their hearts suddenly sunk again.

This pair of Golden Boy and Girl appeared exceptionally adorable, carved in pink and white, evoking irresistible affection.

Despite Huang Wu’s appearance perpetually stuck at fifteen, she had a brother who was already well-established at thirty.

Seeing them, she couldn’t help but be overrun with maternal love and hurriedly went forward to pick up the sister.

"Come, let auntie hold you."

Others gathered around the legitimate eldest son, personally picked up by Zhou Jinhuan.

Looking at the infant’s slightly open mouth, revealing a corner of pristine jade, their expressions turned uncertain.

The two officials who were just congratulating Zhou Jinhuan, upon seeing the piece of white jade in the infant’s mouth, also immediately restrained their joyful expressions.

Frantically pinching their knuckles and frowning, they said:

"With [Qingyun Covering the Top Image] present, how could it be born sucking jade?"

Even though so many figures standing at the pinnacle of the Cultivation World gathered here, none had ever heard that "born sucking jade" was any kind of auspicious sign.

It is known, the jades held in the mouths of the deceased only include "Jade Pendant."

These are placed in the mouths of the deceased, commonly known as "Tongue Suppressor."

Depending on one’s social status and wealth, the materials in the mouth vary, including rice shells, copper coins, pearls, and other materials.

These are also carved into different shapes, symbolizing different meanings.

Generally, kings, vassals, imperial relatives, and nobles after death have Tongue Suppressors made of pearls, carved into shapes like: Jade Cicada, Jade Pearl, Jade Fish, Jade Tube, Jade Bull, Jade Pig, etc.

While lesser households may not have pearls, rice shells and copper coins are still essential.

People believe that if the deceased’s mouth contains golden jade, firstly it prevents the soul from starving in the Underworld, and secondly it preserves the corpse.

When Huang Wu was buried as an "Elixir," the mouth of her corpse contained a highly refined, high-grade "Green Phoenix Treasure Pearl."
