1548 Receiving the Hairpin, Mother and Daughter Identity
“Grand Master Yu Huang, please go ahead.”
After giving his instructions, Sect Master Lin retreated a few meters and maintained a relatively safe distance from Yu Huang. He was worried that Yu Huang wouldn’t meet the specific conditions given by that guest and would suffer the backlash of the other party’s sealing energy. At that time, the backlash might affect him as well.
Although Sect Master Lin was the head of the Green Sena Auction House, he was only an early-stage Grand Master so he didn’t want to suffer.
However, in contrast to Sect Master Lin, Mo Xiao took the initiative to walk behind Yu Huang and protect her like a guardian angel. A spiritual light flashed in Mo Xiao’s hand. It was obvious that he was prepared to protect Yu Huang in time in the face of an emergency.
Sect Master Lin noticed this scene and thought to himself, Prime Emperor Mo Xiao really dotes on his adopted daughter like his biological daughter.
Seeing Mo Xiao standing firmly behind her, Yu Huang was filled with confidence and nodded at Mo Xiao without hesitation. Then, she extended her right hand towards the spiritual energy seal.
Yu Huang used her spiritual energy to circulate the bloodline power in her body and tried her best to let the spiritual energy seal sense her bloodline power.
Sect Master Lin narrowed his eyes slightly and held his breath as he watched Yu Huang’s every move. He saw that when Yu Huang’s right hand touched the spiritual energy seal, the spiritual energy seal shook slightly. That scene was like a stone thrown into a clear spring, causing endless water ripples.
Noticing the change in the sealing energy, Sect Master Lin silently took a step back.
However, the intense reaction he had expected didn’t appear. After the spiritual energy seal sensed Yu Huang’s bloodline power, the rippling ball of light gradually calmed down. Then, Sect Master Lin saw Yu Huang’s hand pass through the spiritual energy seal and successfully hold the hairpin.
Seeing this, Sect Master Lin was shocked.
Yu Huang actually fulfilled the first two requirements of that mysterious guest!
Sect Master Lin suppressed his surprise and quickly walked to Yu Huang’s side as he reminded Yu Huang in a low voice, “Grand Master Yu Huang, please drip the blood from your fingertip on the hairpin now.” If the blood from Yu Huang’s fingertip could cause the hairpin to mutate, then the fated person this hairpin had awaited for thirty years would be Yu Huang.
At this point, Sect Master Lin had a new guess.
If Yu Huang was really the fated person this hairpin was waiting for, this meant that the mysterious guest also had the ability to predict the future.
From the looks of it, that guest was also a powerful prophet.
“I understand.” Yu Huang used the dagger she carried with her to cut the finger of her right middle finger gently, and a drop of dark red blood rolled out of the wound. After the hairpin sensed the aura of Yu Huang’s blood, before it even came into contact with the blood, the hairpin trembled gently.
When he saw this, Sect Master Lin marveled to himself, “Yu Huang is really the fated person the hairpin was waiting for”
Noticing the hairpin’s abnormality, Yu Huang heaved a sigh of relief.
Mom, it seems that I’m one step closer to seeing you.
After Yu Huang dripped the blood on the hairpin, the hairpin instantly shone with golden light. Under Sect Master Lin’s shocked gaze, the gray-silver hairpin actually changed from its previous plain appearance to a golden hairpin.
The appearance of this golden hairpin actually looked the same as the golden hairpin on Jing Jiaren’s head! The only difference was the words engraved on the golden hairpin. The words engraved on Jing Jiaren’s hairpin were ‘A beautiful hairpin for Jiaren’, but the words engraved on this golden hairpin were ‘May my little girl be safe’.
Sect Master Lin had once heard rumors that the golden hairpin that the owner doted on was actually a birthday gift from her aunt, Jing Rujiu. The owner respected and admired her aunt the most, so she valued the golden hairpin so much
The woman called Jing Rujiu was the real boss behind the Green Sena Auction House.
Jing Jiaren was able to become the current owner of the Green Sena Auction House because she had taken over from Jing Rujiu.
If the golden hairpin on Jing Jiaren’s head was really given to the boss by Jing Rujiu, then the same golden hairpin that Yu Huang wanted to take away probably also belonged to Jing Rujiu. Jing Rujiu had been missing for thirty years. Before disappearing, she specifically stored this golden hairpin in the cabinet and waited for Yu Huang to take it away.
What did this mean?
Besides, the word baby usually referred to one’s daughter. Could it be that Jing Rujiu and Yu Huang were mother and daughter?
The truth that he accidentally discovered shocked Sect Master Lin.
Sect Master Lin’s thoughts couldn’t help but wander back to thirty years ago.
That year, the news of the Jing family’s saintess, Jing Rujiu, and an ascendant of a last-rate small world having a daughter out of wedlock spread throughout the entire Divination Continent. Old Madam Jing regarded this matter as a great humiliation and held a public denouncement meeting.
That year, Sect Master Nian Lin was only in his thirties. However, he was a little apprentice by his mentor’s side and learned how to run an auction house from him.
Mentor also brought him to the denouncement meeting.
During the denunciation meeting, Old Madam Jing publicly counted the various sins Jing Rujiu had committed and removed her from the Jing family’s genealogy on the spot. Just this wasn’t enough. Old Madam Jing felt that Jing Rujiu’s divination was all thanks to the Jing clan, so if Jing Rujiu wanted to leave the Jing family, she had to return all the divination power to the Jing family.
Only then would she be returning what belonged to the Jing family.
Jing Rujiu was very stubborn and actually agreed.
In front of everyone, Old Madam Jing took away all the divination power in Jing Rujiu’s body on the spot. She even wanted to shatter Jing Rujiu’s soul lamp and cut ties with her.
The young Jing Jiaren ran out of the crowd despite her parents’ obstruction and knelt in front of Old Madam Jing while swearing that she was willing to dedicate her life to the Jing clan and carry all the burdens on Jing Rujiu’s shoulders. If she hadn’t convinced Old Madam Jing to let go of the soul lamp, the soul lamp would have been shattered long ago.
Sect Master Lin vaguely remembered that at that time, Jing Rujiu had just finished giving birth and almost died. If her husband had not brought her to the Dragon God Palace and convinced the Dragon God Palace to open the Dragon God Shrine and use the Dragon God’s power to treat her, she would have died.
Or else, she would probably have died from childbirth long ago.
On the day of the denouncement meeting, before Jing Rujiu’s body fully recovered, all her divination power was taken away by Old Madam Jing. For the first time, the legendary beauty knelt on the ground in a sorry state.
That day, she left the Jing family while bleeding.
Ever since that day, Jing Rujiu completely disappeared from the cultivation world.
Some people said that she had died a long time ago, while others said that she and her husband had gone to that small world to live in seclusion.
In any case, there were different versions to the story.
