Chapter 186: 186: Hidden Truth of the Mortal Realm (1)

The arrival of Grandpa Xia stabilized the whole situation in the area. Yue Xuexia, after overusing her godly healing skills, fainted from fatigue. This is the first time she has used her divine healing skill on a group of people. She only used it on individual patients before. Even if she got stronger, the source of this ability is divinity, and the skill itself caused too much qi.

Before Yue Xuexia fell, she. Jueyang once again materialized in thin air and caught her. Everyone else was surprised by his sudden appearance, but some people recognized him like Grandpa Xia.

Grandpa Xia nudges Taiyang beside him. "Isn't that man only able to appear using your body? How come he is here right now?"

"Xue'er had been in danger lately. There is no way he can just watch. She even used her divine skill on a group of dying people; normally using it on individual patients is tiring enough. We don't want anything to happen to her," said Taiyang.

Shen Jueyang ignored the eyes that had landed on him and Yue Xuexia. As for the patients who were dying just now, they had all sat up from their original position of lying down. They look at their mistress with eyes full of reverence, and a few even clasped their hands together into a prayer and treated her like a saint.

"Thank you, Mistress!"

"My arms are back. This is a miracle!"

"The Mistress is a Goddess!"

Shen Jueyang took Yue Xuexia away, and Taiyang followed after them. Before they left, Shen Jueyang said to Grandpa Xia before leaving.

"You handle the rest."

The two men flew away with Yue Xuexia, leaving a group of dumbfounded people behind. No one dares to stop them and only watch them leave. After all, the sudden appearance of that godlike man left them speechless. Moreover, the aura around her. Jueyang made it hard for them to say anything.

Yue Ruxia approached her grandfather and asked, "Grandpa, who is that man just now? This is the first time I've seen him."

"I don't know. Maybe only your sister knows who he is," said Grandpa Xia.

Seeing that most of the adults had been healed, Grandpa Xia called some people to bring everyone home as they reached the foot of the mountain. But before they left, Grandpa Xia had a long and private conversation with the White Flood Dragon before it once again disappeared into the huge pond.

The dead were also wrapped up and brought back home. Under the name of their mistress, those who died on duty and their families will receive a huge compensation, especially the descendants.

At the foot of the mountain, a few mortals under the state had closed down the mountain after learning what happened through Grandpa Xia. The members of the Hidden Tan Clan all headed back to the Mystic Mountain, while those from the mortal side were temporarily detained by the state.

Yue Ruxia looked as she and her group were brought to a container van where the special forces of the country were waiting. The ones waiting inside are Ling Wen and a few personnel under the special division of the country.

Upon seeing these people, Gou Yuki and Zhen Rian frowned as they felt that these people weren't simple. Gou Yura and Chen Senya were confused about their situation, while Yue Ruxia and Su Rukia, upon seeing these people, recalled what Yue Xuexia had mentioned to them. It's about the memories of ordinary people being removed or not.

The reason why the Mortal Realm continues to strive with technology is because they were deprived of information about special beings of this world like the cultivators and mythical creatures like the flood dragon.

Cultivator Ling Wen approached their group with a friendly smile.

"You guys are finally here. Come inside with me. I am someone for the state. My name is Ling Wen."

"It's been a while, Xiao Ruru and the other little one of the Xia Clan," said Ling Wen.

Gou Yuki and Zhen Rian looked at each other before looking at the ladies. Most of them looked confused while Yue Ruxia and Su Rukia were silent, as if they already knew that this man would appear before them.

Yue Ruxia and Su Rukia, who met this man at the last New Year banquet of their family. Greeted him as a senior. After all, this is a person that Yue Xuexia had introduced them to and had a special connection to both the country and the state.

"We greet Senior Ling Wen!" Yue Ruxia and Su Rukia collectively said.

Stunned. Chen Senya asked, "Ruru, do you know who this senior is?"

"An acquaintance of Dajie from the state, Senior Ling Wen, is connected to the current state leader, Senior Long Juedi. The former state leader before the current is my grandfather's friend," said Yue Ruxia, as she didn't hide anything from her friends and their families.

"Senior Ling Wen is also a cultivator, and he is one of the greatest supporters of the state of our country."

"So, cultivators exist in this world for real!? They existed longer than we know!" exclaimed Gou Yura. "But if they exist, how come no one knows about them? If not for us being attacked in the mountains, I would have thought that cultivators only exist in novels."

"Because ordinary people are forbidden from knowing them. Their existence is a hidden secret that only those in power know. This means only those who stood at the peak of power in each country know they exist," said Gou Yuki.

Zhen Rian spoke up as well and said, "We are summoned here to talk about what should happen to us. We might even have to sign a Gag Order before we can go home or have our memories of tonight removed. The only reason they were amiable towards us is because of our connection with the Yue family's Third Young Miss, Yue Ruxia."

Getting herself mentioned, Yue Ruxia's face looked even more restrained, but she didn't deny any words Zhen Rian and Gou Yuki had said. That's indeed the purpose of Ling Wen being here.

Yue Ruxia said, "Sorry. I don't have much authority for this kind of situation. All my family can do is give you options to choose from."

Ling Wen pats Yue Ruxia's head in comfort and says to the others.

"Mortals can live without fear because they are ignorant of the danger beyond their means. Would you be able to properly sleep at night knowing that the place you live can be attacked by a cultivator from an outside world? Or if you know the existence of the white flood dragon that only appears in movies living right at the rivers and ponds you deemed as natural nature?"

"As they said, ignorance is bliss. Without knowing about our existence, you would not be able to continue living your lives normally as before. There will be no change in your perspective of the world, and you will live in peace until the end of your lifespan."

"Our country isn't the only one special. Zombies and supernatural people truly exist in other countries, but like our country, they choose to hide them. Aliens also exist. These are beings that come beyond this galaxy, and the universe is bigger than you thought. Other worlds also existed. It's just that a mortal's lifespan is too limited, and it would be less burdensome if you don't know about them."

"This is a form of protection. We choose to exist in the dark and protect you without knowing anything about other existence."

The explanation of cultivator Ling Wen had rendered Gou Yura and Chen Senya speechless. Yue Ruxia and Su Rukia upon entering the cultivation world were taught this ahead of time, especially when Grandpa Xia was someone from another realm himself. As for Gou Yuki and Zhen Rian, they already expected this response and listened quietly to cultivator Ling Wen's words.

Ling Wen said, "Come follow us. The rest of the conversation cannot be said in the open."

The group was escorted in a container van, which isolated not only sound but also prevented others from listening to their conversation. A sofa set and table full of beverages and snacks were waiting for the group. But before they were allowed to sit, cultivator Ling Wen stood before them, holding a crystal ball in his hand.

This is a detector of spiritual roots. As long as one possessed a spiritual root, they would be able to cultivate like the Yue family. It is just that the talents of the Yue family are too high, which leaves the state speechless.

Ling Wen said, "Except for Xiao Ruru and Su Rukia, the rest, please touch this crystal ball. Don't ask first the reason; once we are done, I will explain it properly."

Gou Yuki stood in front of the group as the eldest. He reached out his right hand and touched the crystal ball. A surprise appeared, and a shade of yellow light illuminated the center of the crystal ball.

Cultivator Ling Wen only smiled at this result and said, "Next, please!"

After Gou Yuki was Zhen Rian, and like him, a light appeared at the center, but the color was light green. But things take a turn when Chen Senya and Gou Yura touch the crystal. When Chen Senya held the crystal ball, half of the crystal glowed with a light green shade, taking the shape of a wood, while when Gou Yura touched the crystal, it glowed with a shade of red, taking the shape of a fire.

"This is...!"

Cultivator Ling Wen couldn't believe what he had seen and looked at Yue Ruxia, who looked surprised herself.

"Xiao Ruru, did you give anything to your two girlfriends? Like a pill from your elder sister or something?"

"Um, is the Beautifying Pill made by Dajie included?" said Yue Ruxia.

Every month when Yue Xuexia refined hundreds of pills, a lot of it was distributed to her family and siblings. This happened even before they learned about cultivation. Most of these pills were made into candies by Yue Xuexia, and their effects vary from beautifying to longevity and healing. The Yue family used these pills as daily supplements. Pills are expensive and hard to make.

It is only possible for them to eat a few a week because Yue Xuexia specially made a lot for their sake. She wanted to extend their lifespan for as long as she could using pills, and she didn't explain much to her family and siblings. That's why they treated these precious pills as candies or supplements.

Yue Ruxia's changes in complexion, especially her skin turning fair and soft, caught the attention of her friends Chen Senya and Gou Yura. After explaining about the candies (pills), the two asked for a few, which Yue Ruxia openly shared some of with them. These pills help cleanse and purge all the impurities in the mortal bodies of Chen Senya and Gou Yura. That's why their talents in cultivation had been awakened ahead of time.

"I see. So the Divine Doctor can make pills. This is indeed a surprise."

Ling Wen, upon hearing Yue Rukia's response, remembered the status of Yue Xuexia as the Divine Doctor. He wouldn't be surprised if she knew about pill refinement as well. But to think it helps awaken the cultivation talents of mortals made him completely interested.
