Chapter 184 Bottom of the Lake
“This is her power…”
Chu Zhao quickly figured out why this residual power felt so familiar.
Because, that is Xu Xuan’s power!
It was Xu Xuan, who had set up a protective formation here to isolate that space and prevent some powerful people from discovering this space.
The soul power of the Star Sect is somewhat special. Only those who are also from the Star Sect have a chance of discovering the formation set up by Xu Xuan.
"What is inside this space? She wants to hide it. Why do I sense the breath of a god from it?"
Chu Zhao drew up a formation and figured out a way to break it from the sect's inheritance.
Xu Xuan was very good at this. If she hadn't been dead for nearly twenty years, the remaining power would have dissipated long ago. A beginner like Chu Zhao would have absolutely no way of dealing with this formation.
Chu Zhao did not break the formation, but found a passage to enter.
She wanted to go in and take a look first, then decide what to do and how to do it.
The space under the clear lake water is larger. Chu Zhao still set up the formation and walked into the space which is clearly at the bottom of the lake but is independent of the Lake of Life.
The abnormal space under the lake was more vast than Chu Zhao had imagined. When he probed with his spiritual sense, he felt that it was much larger than the entire Star Dou Forest.
"who!"
A sharp male voice sounded, full of the majesty of a strong man.
When Chu Zhao's spiritual sense probed over, he immediately alarmed this strange space.
An extremely tall figure instantly appeared in front of Chu Zhao. When he saw her, the murderous intent on his face immediately disappeared a lot.
"Master Xu, why are you here? You haven't been here for a long time—"
As soon as he heard the name "Sect Master Xu", Chu Zhao knew that he had made a mistake. Her appearance was certified by Xu Quan to be very similar to Xu Xuan.
However, this man was obviously familiar with Xu Xuan. After just one encounter, he could tell that Chu Zhao was different, and murderous intent and vigilance immediately appeared on his face.
"No, you are not Xu Xuan! Who are you?"
"The one you're talking about should be my mother. Are she and I really that similar?"
Chu Zhao directly revealed her identity because she found that the "person" in front of her seemed to have a very good relationship with Xu Xuan.
After she revealed her identity, the man opposite her seemed to believe it immediately. The murderous intent on his face disappeared and he even smiled.
"No wonder she looks like an old friend. She is the daughter of an old friend."
The tall man said with some emotion, "After not seeing each other for so many years, she already has a daughter and she has grown up so much."
"You look 90% the same now as when I first met her."
"You believe me as soon as I tell you, without even doubting my identity?"
Chu Zhao didn't expect that the person in front of her didn't doubt her at all.
"You look like her, have a similar aura, and you were able to find this place. Besides being her daughter and her asking you to come, I can think of other explanations."
The tall man explained, and gave a little more explanation at the end.
"My name is Di Tian, you can just call me by my name, what's your name?"
"Di Tian?"
Even though he had guessed it in his mind, Chu Zhao was still a little surprised when he heard the name. He quickly concealed his surprise, said his own name, and changed the subject.
"Hello, I'm Chu Zhao."
"But my mother didn't ask me to come here. I came here by accident."
"You came here by yourself? How can you be as reckless as she was decades ago? Fortunately, you look like her and I recognized you at first sight, otherwise..."
Di Tian stopped talking here.
He thought, if Chu Zhao didn't look like Xu Xuan, and he and Xu Xuan were friends, he would have attacked her the moment he found her.
Seeing how young she is, I don’t know if she can withstand my attack.
"But she hasn't been here for nearly thirty years. I'm afraid she has forgotten us a long time ago."
Unexpectedly, Di Tian didn't even know that Xu Xuan was no longer alive.
Chu Zhao looked up at him and asked if he didn't understand.
"You are in here, don't you have any perception of what's happening in the outside world?"
"My mother has been dead for almost twenty years."
When saying this, Chu Zhao still felt a little heartbroken.
She recovered her memories before the age of three. During that period, she truly felt the love of her mother. Xu Xuan was a very good mother.
So good that Chu Zhao didn’t even wish she was a mother.
If Xu Xuan could just be herself, she would probably live a better life.
"Don't joke, this joke is not nice at all. Did she ask you to play a trick on me? I won't be fooled..."
Di Tianxiantian still didn't believe it and thought Chu Zhao was joking.
"It's true. I'm not kidding."
Chu Zhao spoke, starting from the time he was born and describing the strange incident.
Seeing Chu Zhao's sad eyes, which didn't look like he was joking at all, Di Tian, who should have believed it, became even more unconvinced.
"Impossible! This is impossible!"
"You don't know, Xu Xuan has clearly received the call of the gods, she is about to become a god, how could she die in the sect's rebellion?"
"There must be other reasons. Someone must have done something."
Di Tian suddenly looked up at the vast sky, as if he was trying to break through the barrier of space and see something else.
The news of Xu Xuan's death was a huge blow to Di Tian.
He didn't believe that Xu Xuan was dead.
But he firmly believed that there must be some hidden story behind Xu Xuan's death.
But when he looked up at the sky, he suddenly stopped talking and stayed there for a long time.
"Have you found her body?"
After a long while, Emperor Tian finally opened his mouth to ask.
"As long as I see her body, I will be able to find out who killed her."
Now, Di Tian only wants to find out the real murderer and give Xu Xuan the truth.
As long as he saw Xu Xuan's corpse, even if the aura of attack was completely removed, he would still be able to find out something.
But Chu Zhao shook his head in confusion.
"The Xingchen Sect did not find her body."
"Sect Master Xu Quan cleared the door and captured the person who was chasing my mother. He also interrogated him. The person said that my mother died tragically and no body was left."
"He also mobilized a large number of people and searched many places, but still found nothing. It was as if they had really destroyed all traces of the corpse."
What Chu Zhao actually wanted to say was that Xu Quan couldn't find Xu Xuan's bones, and she couldn't find Xu Xuan's soul either.
It's as if there has never been such a person in this world.
"No body? Now I am even less convinced that she is dead."
Di Tian had finally accepted the fact that Xu Xuan was dead, but now he didn't believe it anymore.
"She must still be alive."
