Otherworldly-Cultivator

"I've contacted Long Wang, and he agreed to come here, but he hasn't confirmed when he will come."

"That's okay." Yi Qingcheng then pulled her eldest daughter away. "I want to talk to you about many things."

After they left, Xue Feng asked his father. "What do you think of Xueyan, Father? What about your plan to marry Lan'er to that person?"

"Father-in-law, I think we no longer need to force Xueyan to marry Hua Gaoyun, or else my sister-in-law will be enraged, and she will destroy the Hua Clan." Bing Luo tried to persuade Xue Aotian.

Xue Feng turned to his wife with an angry look. "Why you-"

"Luo'er is right; we should not make your sister angry." Xue Aotian stopped his son. "Honestly, I still don't understand how she managed to do it, but her current cultivation and strength have already surpassed me now, and the Hua Clan won't be able to withstand her wrath. Moreover, you can see for yourself the progress of our sect, and she did everything single-handedly. As for Lan'er's marriage, I have to rethink everything, and I will go meet that person now."

After he said that, Xue Aotian left his son and daughter-in-law, and he left his clan straight after.

Bing Luo then patted her husband's shoulder and spoke to him. "I know your thoughts, but you better not insist on our daughter's marriage anymore, and you should warn Hua Gaoyun about this matter, or it will be too late if he goes to the southern region."

Xue Feng just nodded and left the room before going to see Hua Gaoyun, and Bing Luo contacted Xue Xueyan to inform her about it, but she kept wondering about Chen Li's identity. "Who exactly is Long Wang? How could Lan'er care about him so much? And how did he conquer my daughter's heart so quickly?"

Meanwhile, two women were strolling in the garden, and Yi Qingcheng turned to her eldest daughter while asking several questions. "Did Long Wang really come from another realm? What is your relationship with him? How do you know him? Do you love him too?"

"I don't have that kind of relationship with him." Xue Lan answered her question by shaking her head. "As you already know, I am a reincarnator, and Long Wang is my past father."

Yi Qingcheng immediately stopped walking and looked at her daughter with a shocked expression. Even though Xue Lan had once told her that she was a reincarnator, she had never explained it in detail, so he was truly shocked after hearing that.

To make it easier to explain to her, Xue Lan touched her mother's forehead and shared some of her old memories, especially her memories of meeting and spending time with Emperor Long. "You can see everything first, but I don't want you to share those memories with anyone else."

"I know." Yi Qingcheng then closed her eyes and digested everything first, but the number of memories was quite large, so it took her quite a while to understand them all. After a while, she opened her eyes again and said to Xue Lan. "I didn't expect that you had such a relationship with him in the past, and your ice techniques were given to you by him, but I was even more shocked to find out that you were a snowy mountain spirit in your past life."

"En." Xue Lan nodded to her. "Back then, I lived alone at the top of that snow mountain, and we accidentally met when my father was looking for something in my realm. Since then, he taught me many things and accompanied me for hundreds of years, but many things changed after he returned to his realm."

"Do you know Long Wang's true identity?"

Xue Lan turned to her mother in doubt, as Chen Li's past identity was too great and many people wanted her dead, but she still told Yi Qingcheng in the end. "My father was the Emperor of a realm called the Five Divine Heavens, but some of his subordinates were blinded by power and greed, so they betrayed and dethroned him; even many of his loyal followers were killed and taken prisoner by them. As for him and his wife, they also didn't survive the coup d'etat, and they were reincarnated into their current selves, so they had to re-cultivate from scratch."

Yi Qingcheng fell into a daze after hearing that, especially since the status of an Emperor of a realm was extraordinary, and the status of their two clans would not be able to compare to his.

Xue Lan then spoke to her mother again. "The current them are still too weak now, but they have memories of their past like me, and they will definitely be able to regain their old strength in the future. That's why I think no man is worthy to be Xueyan's husband other than him, so I immediately agreed when my father wanted to take her as his wife."

"En." Yi Qingcheng nodded in agreement with that, especially since her eldest daughter had already surpassed them, and she could do it thanks to her old memories, so she was also confident that Chen Li could do it. "Does he live in Southern River City now? And how many wives does he have now?"

"They live outside the Southern River City, and my father has thirteen wives now, including Xueyan, but he also has several future wives." Yi Qingcheng released a soft sigh after hearing Xue Lan's answer. "Even so, you don't need to worry about my niece, and I've witnessed for myself that Xian'er and the others have a harmonious relationship, so I'm sure that they will treat her well."

Suddenly, Yi Qingcheng remembered something. "Did the phenomenon that happened before happen because of them?"

"Yes." Xue Lan responded by nodding. "The previous phenomenon occurred because of them, but I can't explain the details to you because my father forbade me to tell anyone."

Yi Qingcheng just nodded and did not ask further about the matter. "Even though you have considered Long Wang as your father since your past life, the two of you have no relationship whatsoever, and the two of you have both reincarnated now, so-"

"No." Xue Lan immediately interrupted her mother, as she could already guess her next words. "Whether in the past, the present, or the future, Long Wang will always be my father, and I will never have such a feeling toward him, so you don't need to think of such an idea."

Yi Qingcheng let out a heavy sigh after hearing that, and she pulled her eldest daughter into her arms. "Lan'er, I know you are this cold because of your past and special physique, but I sincerely hope that you will meet someone who can melt your heart in the future. Moreover, you have lived alone for too long, and you have felt the feeling of loneliness before, right?"

Xue Lan did not refute her mother's words, as she did feel lonely after Long Wang left her in that realm, but she was helpless to do anything at that time because her soul was bound to the snowy mountain, so she could only enjoy the loneliness.

"Even though changing our habits is difficult, I hope you are willing to change yourself." Xue Lan looked at her mother with a raised eyebrow, as she had never thought about it before, and Yi Qingcheng rubbed her cheek with a smile. "We are indeed cultivators, but we are still human beings with feelings, and we have the right to be happy in our lives. As for me, all of you are the source of my happiness, and I feel really lucky to have you guys by my side. That's why I hope you can learn to open your feelings and accept the presence of other people by your side, so you can find your true happiness."

However, Xue Lan shook her head and freed herself from her mother's embrace. "I've been here for too long, so I should return to my sect now."

Without waiting for her mother's reply, Xue Lan disappeared from her sight, causing Yi Qingcheng to sigh heavily. "Hmm? Apparently, I should talk to Long Wang about Lan'er, and he might be able to change her, especially since she seems very obdient to him, or she will always lonely for the rest of her life."

Xue Feng had arrived at the Hua Clan and met Hua Gaoyun directly, and he explained to him about his previous conversation with his family, especially about Xue Lan's threat, but he didn't tell him that Xue Xueyan had already chosen Chen Li as her husband.

Hua Gaoyun looked furious after he heard everything, but he was aware that his strength was below that of Xue Aotian, and he would not be able to win against Xue Lan if her strength had already surpassed him. However, he had coveted Xue Xueyan for so long, so he didn't want to give up so easily. 'How can I get her without that cold woman knowing?'

"Brother Hua, Lan'er never jests with her words, and she will monitor your movements, so I hope you can hold back for now."

"Hmm?" Hua Gaoyun stared at Xue Feng fiercely. "You can return to your clan, and I will take care of this matter myself."
