Yang Lujia talked with City Lord Ice for some time. City Lord Ice acted courteously in front of Yang Lujia, addressing him as Chief Justice Cao. As much as Yang Lujia didn’t want her to bow in front of him, he simply didn’t want to narrow their subordinate-master relationship.

Practically, Yang Lujia was the master of all the beings in this world—not even Long Guang could demand against his authority. Yes, the core was made to connect with Long Guang—but that was only it.

As the creator himself, Yang Lujia naturally had more authority than his own disciple.

Moreover, these people were reigned in by him. It was only right for him to become their master.

“Greetings, Chief Justice Cao!”

The moment they heard from City Lord Ice about Yang Lujia’s sudden arrival after three years, they were filled with yearning. Although their cultivations kept on increasing, they seemed reluctant to be happy when they did not even know whether or not Yang Lujia had encountered some unpredicted mishaps.

All of them knelt, the City Lords, their direct subordinates, and their sons and daughters. That was with the exception of the three siblings of the Xia Family. They were regarded by Yang Lujia as his close friends. Even so, their father had urged them to kneel as well.

“There’s no need for everyone to kneel,” Yang Lujia said with a smile. “Moreover, even though you are technically my subordinates, it could be said that you are also all my friends.”

Although Yang Lujia said that, the City Lords very well knew that they simply did not have enough capabilities to befriend someone like Yang Lujia. He was an existence that even they as people of the older generation would fear.

“What about your father? Where is he? Is he really that passionate about farming? Did you inform him?” Yang Lujia turned his head to City Lord Ice. “City Lord Ice—” Suddenly, Yang Lujia revealed a smile as he sensed two approaching auras shooting fast to the palace.

“I guess there’s no need to find them anymore,” Yang Lujia continued. “They’re already here.”

“They?” City Lord Ice and the others were confused.

His father was only one person.

Why would Chief Justice Cao say ‘they’re coming’?

“I wonder how that kid is doing now,” Yang Lujia muttered in a low voice.

Before the two of these people could arrive, Yang Lujia approached all of them and had them stand up. All of them, especially the City Lords, had borne tears from their eyes. They simply missed Yang Lujia that much. The three-year time when Yang Lujia was absent had made them advance in leaps and bounds. They were simply grateful for him.

Even the head of the Xia Family, the Death City’s City Palace Lord, Xia Zhiguang, held Yang Lujia in high regard and did not dare urge his daughter, Xia Hua, to flirt and/or seduce Chief Justice Cao.

Yang Lujia then sized up the three siblings from the Xia Family, especially Xia Hua. He was captivated by how her strength had advanced so much. Was it the effect of her special body and special bloodline?

“Brother Jieke, how have you been?” Yang Lujia, however, turned his head to ask Xia Jieke. “It seems like you’ve gained a much stronger cultivation level now. Your talent is not in any way inferior to those people in the higher realm.”

“Brother Jiali, you also have some talent. You even caught up to your eldest brother’s cultivation!” Even Yang Lujia sounded surprised.

Were their talents so strong and there were just not enough resources for them to grow in Da Sishen? That was why their cultivation, despite their talents, stagnated? Even their father had become much more powerful than them.

It was also good for Yang Lujia to have them become stronger. In the future, he would be able to have a stronger force. Also, he never intended to let them remain in Da Sishen. He also wanted to ascend to the higher realm. To do that, he knew that he also had to work hard.

“Thank you for the praise, Chief Justice Cao!” Both of the brothers bowed to him. They were extremely respectful towards him. It was as if they were strangers and Yang Lujia was someone of the same seniority as their father or even higher.

Xia Hua, on the other hand, had a look of disappointment on her face. He was not disappointed with Yang Lujia. Instead, she was disappointed with herself—being not born on the same page as Yang Lujia.

All those three years, she had been contemplating it and no matter what she did, she just could not extract Yang Lujia’s face from her mind. Even her dreams were teasing him.

However, she knew her status. Compared to him, she was only akin to an ant trying to become a dragon.

Even her brothers were helpless towards their sister. It seemed like she really liked Yang Lujia to the core—to the extent that she even said she would not marry anyone unless it was Yang Lujia—Cao Nima.

Yang Lujia had to admit that Xia Hua was extremely beautiful. Even her mother would pale in comparison to her—moreover, Yang Lujia, with his sensitive sense, actually could not feel any resonance between her mother’s blood with hers. It was as though he was not her daughter. However, her blood did carry Xia Zhiguang’s.

“Xia Hua, you’ve become even more beautiful now!” Yang Lujia suddenly praised and smiled at her. It was the sweetest smile she had seen that her cheeks blushed.

She was even forced to turn away, just to hide away the face she was making. She knew that she had to stop herself. That her feelings for her had to stop. However, there was nothing she could do. As long as he remained in her memories, she wouldn’t be able to let go of him.

Seeing her acting like that, Yang Lujia was a bit surprised. He didn’t expect that his compliment had invoked such a reaction in Xia Hua. Although his interaction with her had been short, he still held her in high regard. Such an amazing woman with an amazing talent could find any man of her dreams.

In fact, her talent had already far surpassed his older brother—their eldest brother. She was only a step away from the Saint Emperor Realm. Nevertheless, he did not delve into this much.

“Sister Hua, you don’t have to feel shy. You have indeed become more beautiful and graceful. Moreover, your talent astonished me even more! Who would’ve expected that you’d already reached the peak of the Saint King Realm?”

“WHAT?!”

The words that came out of Yang Lujia’s mouth rendered the crowd’s jaws drop to the ground. It was that shocking. To their knowledge, Xia Hua was only up to Xia Jiali’s level in terms of talent. Xia Jieke was the most talented among them all.

“Xia Hua, is it really true?” Xia Zhiguang, on the other hand, could not anymore contain the excitement he was feeling. “Are you truly a peak Saint King now?”

As her father, no one knew more about Xia Hua than him.

Xia Hua blushed even more. She never expected that the man she loved would be the one who would expose her true cultivation. She knew the feeling of being helpless for being surpassed by others due to their inferior talents. She was considering her eldest brother’s feelings.

However, with that being said, she still could not amount to anything compared to Yang Lujia. She felt very conflicted.

Sensing the emotions surging from Xia Hua, Xia Jieke decided to intervene. He was even smiling from ear to ear. “Xia Hua, I know we’re not siblings by blood. But you don’t have to worry about this big brother of yours. Even if you become the most powerful, this big brother of yours will remain as your big brother to death. As someone who has watched you grow up, I know your prowess more than anyone. As your eldest brother, I do not envy your talent. I only feel proud of my little sister—especially now that she has grown to this extent.”

Xia Hua burst into tears as soon as she heard his speech. She then ran up to her big brother and hugged him tightly. “T-Thank you, big brother…”

“There, there…”

Yang Lujia, who was watching this scene in the background, felt his heart tighten. He was reminded again of someone from Earth. “Big sister…” he unconsciously mumbled.

“Wait…” Yang Lujia suddenly realized as he stared at the siblings with a questioning look. “Brother Jieke, did you just say that you’re not related to Xia Hua in any way? Then, does that mean your father is also not her father?”

“Brother Cao Nima, I apologize for not telling you about this earlier. However, now that everything has come to this point. Our father only coincidentally found her at the edge of the Da Sishen.”

Xia Zhiguang also couldn’t help but speak up. “Yes, my son is not lying, Chief Justice Cao. As everyone knows, this old man likes to venture to the edges of Da Sishen, especially in the void where there are several treasures.”

“Then, why does she have your blood?”

Xia Zhiguang then shook his head and smiled embarrassingly. “That was only a fake upfront, Chief Justice Cao. You should be able to tell if you examine it carefully. I only infused my own blood into her, so others would believe that she’s my daughter.”

Yang Lujia immediately quickly examined Xia Hua’s body carefully. On the other hand, Xia Hua, who was being stared at by Yang Lujia, blushed. Her tears even stopped midway from coming out. Yang Lujia’s stare, which was like stripping her, made her body react as a usual woman would.

However, Yang Lujia didn’t realize her actions at all. Instead, he was focused on examining her blood. He then soon gasped in surprise as he found something even more astonishing.

He then looked at Xia Hua with a complicated gaze. He was able to sense something familiar from her. “You… you’re also from the void?”
