On the coast of the South China Sea, the island was completely close to the shore, connected to the coast like a mountain. But it was still surrounded by clouds and mist, so the true appearance of the island could not be seen clearly.
Lu Haoxian and Su Baiyi stood on the shore and looked up at Yingzhou: "We're here."
Su Baiyi looked at Yingzhou in front of him and felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. In his dreams, this place had appeared many times. He whispered, "Lü Xuanshui, wait for me up there."
"I dare not address the Lord by his name." Lu Haoxian glanced at Su Baiyi, "And you should call him uncle."
"An uncle who wants to suck all my blood?" Su Baiyi sneered.
"Your mother is Lv Xuanyun, she was once the chief envoy of the Three Lords, and the only sister of the Lord." Lv Haoxian lifted Su Baiyi's collar, "Let's go, the Lord has been waiting for a long time." Lv Haoxian led Su Baiyi to step lightly on the sea water a few times, and then jumped into the clouds. Su Baiyi looked up and saw a huge golden gate appeared there. Two eight-foot strong men with naked upper bodies held two big swords in their hands to block the door, and the scene on the island was clearly seen. Although he had a natural resistance to Yingzhou, Su Baiyi had to admit that this place was indeed qualified to be called a fairyland.
There are clear springs and waterfalls, ancient books from the sky, and exotic birds with colorful feathers flying through the air on the island. You can also see saber-toothed beasts that can only be seen in ancient books roaring on the mountain peaks. The buildings on the island, with gold-painted roofs and jade plaques, are also extremely luxurious and beautiful.
When Lu Haoxian brought Su Baiyi to the Golden Gate, the two strong men immediately put down their swords and half-knelt on the ground: "Master Yunxian."
"Is the Lord in Xuanyang Palace? I want to go see him." Lu Haoxian said slowly.
The two gatekeepers looked at each other, and one of them replied, "The Lord went into seclusion the day before yesterday. I'm afraid it will take some time before he can come out."
"Retreat again." Lu Haoxian frowned slightly, "Okay. Then wait a little longer."
"Does this person need to be taken to the Heavenly Prison?" asked the gatekeeper.
“How dare you.” Lu Haoxian waved his long sleeves and knocked the gatekeeper away. “This is the son of the former Grand Envoy Lu Xuanyun, the blood relative of the Lord. How can I allow you to speak nonsense!”
Another gatekeeper was horrified and said, "It turned out to be the son of Envoy Lu. We two subordinates were blind and did not recognize a great man. Please punish us, Envoy!"
"Let's go to Luoyang Palace." Lv Haoxian ignored the two and took Su Baiyi all the way up, and finally came to a palace on the mountainside. This palace is very special. From the exterior of the house to the matching decorations inside, there is only one color white, which gives a pure and cold feeling. Two maids guarded the door, both wearing white shirts and beautiful faces. They seemed a little surprised by Lv Haoxian's arrival: "Why did Lord Haoxian come to our Luoyang Palace today?"
Lu Haoxian did not answer them, but pointed to the plaque of Luoyang Palace: "This is where your mother once lived."
"Mother really likes white." Su Baiyi replied.
The two maids were also startled and turned to look at Su Baiyi. One of them even stepped forward excitedly, but was stopped by Lu Haoxian. The maid hurriedly asked, "Is this young master the child of Master Xuanyun?"
"It must be, it must be. Look at his eyebrows and eyes, they are exactly the same as Lord Xuanyun's." Another maid said excitedly.
"Are they my mother's maids?" Su Baiyi was stunned. Looking at these two maids, they were only about the same age as himself. How could they have been serving his mother back then
Lu Haoxian saw Su Baiyi's confusion and explained, "The life span of anyone on Yingzhou is incomparable to that of ordinary people. Even though they look like this, they are actually not young anymore."
The two maids hurriedly saluted and said, "Qiannu, Quenu, greetings, young master." The two looked very excited, smiling and wiping their tears. It seemed that they had deep feelings for Lu Xuanyun in their hearts.
"You stay in the Luoyang Palace first. When the envoy comes out of seclusion, I will take you to see him." Lu Haoxian said.
Su Baiyi smiled and said, "How dare you leave me in Luoyang Palace like this? Aren't you afraid that I will escape?"
"On the way here, I have confirmed that you have no internal energy left in your body. You are no match for any of the people from Yingzhou, so you'd better stay in Luoyang Palace and don't come out." Lu Haoxian patted Su Baiyi's shoulder at the last moment. It was both advice and a threat. After that, Lu Haoxian tapped his feet and flew down from Luoyang Palace.
Su Baiyi walked a few steps outside and looked up. There was only a palace on the top of the mountain. It must be the Xuanyang Palace that Lu Haoxian and the gatekeeper had just mentioned. And below were densely packed courtyards. It seemed that what Lu Haoxian said was true. In this Yingzhou, his mother Lu Xuanyun was indeed a person second only to the emperor.
"What are you looking at, sir?" the maid named Qiannu came forward and asked.
"My uncle, does Lu Xuanshui live there?" Su Baiyi asked, pointing to the palace above.
Qian Nu bowed her head and said, "I dare not address the Lord by name directly. The Xuanyang Palace is above, which is indeed the Lord's permanent residence."
"I see." Su Baiyi nodded, "He said he is in seclusion and can't see me for the time being."
Qian Nu nodded: "The Master often practices in seclusion, and often does not come out for months, but since the Young Master has returned, the Master will surely appear to see you soon."
Su Baiyi was stunned, thinking that it seemed that Qian Nu didn't know why she was brought here. He asked, "Sisters, I suddenly found out that I was originally from Yingzhou. I have a question, why did my mother leave Yingzhou?"
Qian Nu and Que Nu looked at each other, and Qian Nu sighed softly, "Sir, we two servants dare not say more about this. If the Lord knows..."
"Forget it, forget it. What is there to hide?" Que Nu stepped forward and said, "We have lived in Luoyang Palace for so many years. It is rare for us to wait for you to come back. We should tell you about what happened back then."
"Okay, thank you both sisters." Su Baiyi walked towards the Luoyang Palace to prevent the two maids' conversation from being heard by others.
Que Nu and Qian Nu followed in. Que Nu bowed slightly and changed the way he addressed Lu Xuanyun: "Miss left Yingzhou because she didn't want to marry the Lord."
"Wait." Su Baiyi was stunned. "Isn't Lu Xuanshui and my mother's biological brother?"
The magpie slave nodded and said, "That is true, but on Yingzhou, many rules of the mortal world do not apply. According to the Lord's will, only the two of them have the purest bloodline on the island, so the future heirs of Yingzhou must inherit the bloodline of both of them at the same time."
Su Baiyi stretched out his hand and scratched his head: "I always thought that Lu Xuanshui was a madman, but I didn't expect that he was such a madman."
