Yan Qing hung his head even lower. I knew Madam was coming, but who would’ve thought she would come like this…
“What does the child look like?”
“I heard that… he’s a boy around three years old with purple hair and purple eyes, so he’s easily recognizable.”
“Purple hair?” Rong Xiu thought for a moment, and he suddenly thought of something as his distinct fingers knocked against the table twice.
Realization flashed across his face. The next moment, he laughed faintly. “She has a big heart.”
It really is only her who dares to pretend to be that person’s mother. But… This proves that that person treats her in an extraordinary manner. If it were someone else, they would’ve already died 10,000 times.

Detecting that Rong Xiu’s anger seemed to have subsided, Yan Qing then looked up and carefully asked, “Then… Your Highness, next—”
“You don’t need to intervene. Xue Xue is there to protect them. When they’re here, I’ll personally go and fetch them.” Besides, with that person around, who could bully her? Even though I don’t feel very happy, this will have to do since that person wanted to come.
“Yes!”
…
On the other side, Chu Liuyue crossed the curtain and entered the G.o.d Residence Realm!
Chu Liuyue suddenly had a dazed moment when her feet stepped on the concrete ground. She focused her gaze and looked forward.
It was still a s.p.a.cious field ahead of her, and the sky was light blue. A city sat at the point where heaven and earth made contact.
The city wall and moat were huge and traditional.
Outside the moat was a gigantic barrier covering it! Even if they were this distance away, she could still clearly feel its intense suppression!
“That’s Grotto-Heaven Cliff.” Dugu Mobao jumped down from Chu Liuyue’s arms and spoke with a dark face.
“Grotto-Heaven Cliff?” Chu Liuyue had heard of this name a few times previously. “Is it a clan within the G.o.d Residence Realm?”
“There are no kingdoms or dynasties in the G.o.d Residence Realm, only clans. The stronger the clan, the higher their status, and the more resources and treasures they have. There are no laws or rules here. The only rule is that the strong will eat the weak—the strong are respected.”
Chu Liuyue’s heart shuddered. Even though he only briefly answered with two sentences, she could smell a bloodbath.
“The clans in the G.o.d Residence Realm are also split into different tiers. This Grotto-Heaven Cliff can only forcefully be considered as a third-tier one.”
Chu Liuyue was shocked. Third-tier? That Young Master Lin was so young, and he had already entered the Apotheosis Realm. I didn’t expect that the clan of such a person could only be considered as third-tier.
“If this… is only the third tier, I wonder how amazing the top tier is…” Chu Liuyue muttered to herself.
“Even though they’re only third-tier, they’ve already beaten more than half the clans in the G.o.d Residence Realm to be considered third-tier status. You need to know that most clans don’t even have the right to send someone to guard the G.o.d Residence Realm’s entrances.” Dugu Mobao glanced at her. “Do you still remember the symbol that appeared on that curtain?”
Chu Liuyue nodded.
“That’s the Grotto-Heaven Cliff’s totem. Very few clans can have their own totem engraved on the G.o.d Residence Realm’s curtain.”
Chu Liuyue instantly understood. “I understand. This also means that no matter how weak they are here, they’re not someone we can offend?”
Dugu Mobao was speechless.
Although he didn’t have much of an expression, he looked even cuter when accompanied by his chubby face—especially his eyes that were filled with solemnity and cold intent. This was because his curled lashes were too pretty and couldn’t feel threatening.
Chu Liuyue couldn’t help but stretch out her hand to ruffle his hair. “Speaking of which, your performance just now was great!”
Shua!
Dugu Mobao instantly jumped as high as three feet and rapidly moved backward! He glared at Chu Liuyue’s… hand as if he were facing great enmity. “Wh-what do you want?!”
It’s impossible if she wants to do the same as just now!
Chu Liuyue coughed and then remembered that the person in front of her wasn’t a true child, so she tactfully retracted her hand. “Misunderstanding! It’s a misunderstanding! I… just wanted to say that we should go…”
Dugu Mobao still glared at her with a look of warning. “I’ll walk myself!”
Then, he inched toward the side and turned to walk forward.
Chu Liuyue rubbed her glabella. Pfft. The incident just now seems to have left quite a big scar on Big Baby…
She hurriedly chased after him. “Don’t worry, don’t worry. If it’s not a special situation, I promise I won’t do this again!”
Dugu Mobao didn’t speak but silently quickened his pace.
…
There weren’t many people in the field. They occasionally saw some people rus.h.i.+ng around, but most of them hid their auras.
“They all seem to have hidden their cultivation levels…” After walking a distance, Chu Liuyue lowered her voice and inquired about this.
Even though her capabilities couldn’t be compared to most people here, she was extremely sensitive to one’s force and aura. With just one glance, she could basically gauge the other party’s level. However, she had met quite a few people just now, but she couldn’t test their abilities.
“Of course.” Even though Dugu Mobao still had a cold face, he still answered Chu Liuyue’s question.
“The G.o.d Residence Realm only has one rule: the strong are respected! To become stronger, the people here can do anything. If one directly exposes their cultivation level outside, they would definitely attract a lot of attention. They might even cause trouble for themselves. Unless you have a strong backing or a strong warrior with you, you definitely can’t expose your cultivation level at will. Especially when…” Dugu Mobao stopped in his tracks and looked up at her. “You’re still so weak.”
Chu Liuyue was stumped. I have lived two lives. Other than when I was just reborn and other people called me a good-for-nothing for a period of time, people have always called me a genius most other times. No matter if it is the people that like or dislike me, they will admit that I’m extremely talented and strong regardless of how indignant they are. Only Big Baby has always despised me, but he is right. Here, I am indeed… very weak.
She pressed her lips against each other and felt a stronger urge to become more capable!
“Most people will use Yuan instruments to hide their aura, but Yuan instruments can be good or bad. Some of the very capable strong warriors can still discern one’s cultivation level through the Yuan instrument.”
“Then, mine…”
“You don’t have to worry about yours,” said Dugu Mobao lightly. “Your Yuan instrument that hides your aura is still a little useful. Ordinary people can’t tell much…”
“…Oh,” answered Chu Liuyue in a seemingly understanding tone as she touched the nail-sized silver hoop around her neck. Dugu Mobao gave me this item at the start. At that time, he just said that it was to cross the G.o.d Residence Realm’s border successfully and that I had to hide my aura. I didn’t expect it to have such an important use. However… I wonder what level this item is…
“There’s a transportation formation in the city in front.. We can walk from there.”
