Looking at Tian Xiaoxiao's nervous expression, the Celestial Snake Demon Lord thought she would say something earth-shattering about treasures.
"Regardless of memories, Xiaoxiao, your personality and preferences haven't changed at all, especially your love for all kinds of treasures."
The Celestial Snake Demon Lord was very emotional. She continued, "Those things you mentioned are all your own little collections, so naturally they really exist."
"Really exist... that's good, that's good, wait a minute..." Tian Xiaoxiao patted her chest, feeling quite relieved, but soon, she felt that something was wrong. She cautiously asked, "Did you just mean... the things inside the secret realm are all from my collection?"
Unconsciously, Tian Xiaoxiao had started using honorifics.
The Celestial Snake Demon Lord nodded lightly and said, "Only a small part belongs to your three older sisters."
After hearing this, the four sisters exchanged glances, their eyes filled with wonder. This woman in front of them was very familiar with each of them. Could she really be their mother?
Tian Xiaoxiao didn't think so much. Her mind was filled with the Celestial Snake Demon Lord's words, "All from your collection." She took a step forward, then made a large gesture and asked, "Including such a tall and large cauldron?"
"Cauldron?" The Celestial Snake Demon Lord couldn't remember which cauldron it was for a moment.
"It's a large cauldron made entirely of God-Imprinted Purple Gold, a full three zhang(丈: zhang, a unit of length) tall," Tian Xiaoxiao described the appearance of the God-Imprinted Purple Gold Cauldron in detail.
Only then did the Celestial Snake Demon Lord suddenly realize. She laughed and said, "That was a gift from the Giant Spirit Clan for your four sisters' hundred-day celebration. I didn't expect you to remember this cauldron."
Tian Xiaoxiao's face fell. How could she possibly remember this cauldron? It was because she had seen it with her own eyes not long ago, and it had slipped away from her hands, eventually being picked up by the lucky Li Beifei, getting a great bargain.
Of course, Li Beifei was her own senior brother, so giving him the God-Imprinted Purple Gold Cauldron was fine. The problem was that there were many outsiders in the secret realm, and the treasures they obtained were, strictly speaking, taken from her home. The most important thing was that these people were able to enter the secret realm, largely thanks to them.
"My immortal gold, my sacred medicine, my treasures..."
Tian Xiaoxiao looked at the sky with blank eyes. At this moment, her heart was bleeding. Just thinking about it was painful.
"If you don't want those creatures to take away your treasures, then I will drive them out."
After the Celestial Snake Demon Lord said this, she was about to take action to drive the other creatures out of the secret realm, but she was stopped by Tian Xiaoxiao.
"No need, no need."
Tian Xiaoxiao shook her head repeatedly and said, "Take care of yourself when you are poor, and benefit the world when you are successful. Their ability to come here is greatly related to us. And I believe that if the treasures here are really from my collection, I will definitely not let anyone find some of the most important treasures."
Tian Xiaoxiao was very confident. The treasures that others could find would definitely not be her most favorite and most important treasures. Although she felt that the God-Imprinted Purple Gold Cauldron was quite important, since her own senior brother had obtained it, she wouldn't feel too bad.
"Take care of yourself when you are poor, and benefit the world when you are successful."
The Celestial Snake Demon Lord softly repeated these words, then she looked at the four sisters with eyes full of gratification. She said, "I didn't expect that your realm has reached this level. It seems that my decision to risk sending you to the future was the right one."
Seeing the Celestial Snake Demon Lord praising them so much, a blush appeared on the four sisters' faces. Tian Yuanyuan said, "Actually, our Shibo(师伯: a respectful term for one's teacher's senior fellow apprentice or a senior member of one's martial arts lineage) taught us this sentence."
"Shibo?"
The Celestial Snake Demon Lord's tone was surprised. She wasn't surprised that they would have a Shibo(师伯: a respectful term for one's teacher's senior fellow apprentice or a senior member of one's martial arts lineage). Since she decided to send them to the future, she had already anticipated many things, including joining a sect.
She was surprised that their Shibo(师伯: a respectful term for one's teacher's senior fellow apprentice or a senior member of one's martial arts lineage) could say the two sentences "Take care of yourself when you are poor, and benefit the world when you are successful."
"Hmph, our Shibo(师伯: a respectful term for one's teacher's senior fellow apprentice or a senior member of one's martial arts lineage) is the Holy Emperor Your Majesty admired by all races in the mortal world. That damn Primal Demon Lord was born more than a thousand years ago, but he was suppressed by our Shibo(师伯: a respectful term for one's teacher's senior fellow apprentice or a senior member of one's martial arts lineage) with a flip of his hand. He even set a rule to let the Primal Demon Lord be born once every 100,000 years, and each time stronger than the last, the purpose is to train troops for the mortal world."
Tian Xiaoxiao put her hands on her hips, looked up high, and her tone was very proud and smug.
"Mortal World(红尘界: mortal world)?" The Celestial Snake Demon Lord's face froze.
Tian Yuanyuan then said, "The mortal world is named after the Red Dust Heavenly Emperor."
"Ye Hongchen?" The Celestial Snake Demon Lord asked.
Tian Yuanyuan nodded. "The Primal Demon Lord was sealed by him."
The Celestial Snake Demon Lord nodded slightly and said with emotion, "I didn't expect the final winner to be the human youth who was still called a genius in those years."
"Do you also know him?" Tian Yuanyuan asked curiously.
"The human race is also one of the races I protect, but the human race is inherently weak and unbearable. Even an adult human is no match for an ordinary beast. However, their cultivation is extremely fast. Some geniuses are equivalent to hundreds of years of other races in one year. Over the years, some strong people have also appeared in the human race, but most of them have reached the end when they reach the Supreme."
"In my memory, the strongest human was an immortal king, and Ye Hongchen was his descendant. I thought he had good talent, so I also gave him some pointers."
"I just didn't expect that he would become the Immortal Emperor that I, the Primal Demon Lord, and the Great Peng Heavenly Venerate have been pursuing for countless years. It's really unpredictable."
The Celestial Snake Demon Lord's face was full of emotion. In her era, Ye Hongchen was just a human genius who had been guided by her. Even if she could predict the future, she couldn't have predicted that Ye Hongchen would surpass her and become an Immortal Emperor.
It can only be said that things change, and it's not something that she, an Celestial Venerable, can see through. Otherwise, she wouldn't have fallen in that era.
"Your Shibo(师伯: a respectful term for one's teacher's senior fellow apprentice or a senior member of one's martial arts lineage) can easily seal the Primal Demon Lord, he must also be an amazing powerhouse. As expected, my decision to send you to the future was right."
The Celestial Snake Demon Lord emphasized again.
"Are you really our mother?"
Tian Yuanyuan asked.
"Yes!" The Celestial Snake Demon Lord nodded lightly, without any extra explanation. Yes is yes, no is no, she didn't need to deceive.
Hearing this, the four sisters looked at each other, and then the second sister, Tian Fangfang, asked, "Since you are our mother, why are you willing to separate us from you for countless years?"
"Don't say it's for our own good, all parents say such things." The third sister, Tian Zhengzheng, blocked one of the Celestial Snake Demon Lord's paths as soon as she spoke.
When it was Tian Xiaoxiao's turn, Tian Xiaoxiao thought for a while and didn't know what to say, so she said "Why".
The Celestial Snake Demon Lord was silent for a while in the face of their questions, and then spoke, her tone still as gentle as water.
