Chapter 710: Tears of Emotion

Celestial Blue Phoenix!

At this moment, Lan Feng'er anxiously observed her husband, Ye Nanxin, but to her surprise, she saw none of the disgust or fear she had anticipated. In fact, there wasn’t even the slightest bit of shock or astonishment.

Instead, what she saw was a look of sudden realization, as if everything had just clicked for him.

"So, Feng'er’s race is called the Celestial Blue Phoenix? What a beautiful name," Ye Nanxin said with a gentle nod after hearing Lan Feng'er's explanation, even offering praise.

Lan Feng'er was at a loss. She had imagined so many different reactions.

She had thought Ye Nanxin might be incredulous, despondent, perhaps even angry that she had deceived him. She had even considered the possibility that he might turn and walk away.

But she had never expected that he would remain so calm and even compliment the name of her race!

Lan Feng'er stood there in a daze, staring at Ye Nanxin, unsure of what to say.

After a moment, she asked, "What’s going on here? I’m not human, so why aren’t you surprised?"

"Because I’ve known for a while now." Seeing the confusion on Lan Feng'er’s face, Ye Nanxin smiled and explained, "Xinyer’s cultivation has been progressing rapidly because she awakened the bloodline she inherited from you."

He then briefly explained how Ye Xin’s essence blood had been analyzed, revealing that her bloodline contained the power of another race, confirming that Lan Feng'er was not human.

When Ye Nanxin learned this, he had realized that his wife had originally been from another race.

"A shared bloodline..." Lan Feng'er murmured in astonishment after hearing her husband’s explanation. "I didn’t expect Xinyer to be a shared bloodline bearer!"

"Shared bloodline? What does that mean?" Ye Nanxin asked curiously, intrigued by the term he had never heard before.

Seeing his confusion, Lan Feng'er patiently explained the concept.

It turns out that intermarriage between different races is common in the outer void, but it’s incredibly difficult for the bloodlines of different races to merge.

As a result, children born from such unions typically inherit the bloodline of only one parent.

For example, if a human married someone from the Celestial Blue Phoenix clan, their child would either be fully human or fully Celestial Blue Phoenix.

However, a shared bloodline bearer is a child who inherits the dominant traits of one race but also possesses the power of the other race’s bloodline.

In Ye Xin’s case, she was primarily human but had inherited the power of the Celestial Blue Phoenix, making her a shared bloodline bearer, which granted her exceptional cultivation talent.

The fact that her daughter was a shared bloodline bearer filled Lan Feng'er with joy.

"By the way, that old man earlier mistook me for someone else and called me 'Empress,' and you were referred to as 'Lord Father.' What was that all about?" Lan Feng'er asked, still curious and beginning to form some suspicions.

Ye Nanxin smiled and explained, "The entire Soul Martial Continent has been unified under a single empire, known as the Huaxia Empire. In essence, the entire continent is now the Huaxia Empire."

Lan Feng'er’s expression shifted as she processed this information. What kind of empire could rise so rapidly and manage to unify the entire Soul Martial Continent? It was astonishing.

"And the ruler of this empire is a young emperor named Lin Qian, the Martial Emperor of Benevolence. It was he who led the Huaxia Empire, allowing the people of the Soul Martial Continent to live peaceful and prosperous lives. Every race in the empire is treated with respect, and through their abilities, they’ve helped make the empire stronger."

"Beside the emperor is his wife, the Benevolent Empress, also known as the Empress of the Huaxia Empire. You see all the festive decorations everywhere because the Martial Emperor and the Benevolent Empress are about to be married."

Upon hearing this, Lan Feng'er gasped and covered her mouth in shock. "Lin Qian... Could the Benevolent Empress be Xinyer?"

"Indeed. Otherwise, how else would your husband have earned the title of 'Lord Father'?" Ye Nanxin said with a chuckle, finding amusement in Lan Feng'er’s astonished expression.

Lan Feng'er felt as if the world had turned upside down. In all the years she had been away from the Soul Martial Continent—a place full of sweet memories—so much had changed.

Without wasting any time, Lan Feng'er urged Ye Nanxin to take her to New Qin City so she could reunite with her daughter.

However, before they could leave, Ye Nanxin took Lan Feng'er to complete the process of obtaining her Huaxia Empire credentials, where she swore a heart demon oath not to harm the empire, granting her official identification.

Curious about the purpose of the credentials, Lan Feng'er watched as Ye Nanxin introduced her to the everyday life in the Huaxia Empire.

They traveled in soul cars to the cloudship station, where they boarded a cloudship bound for New Qin City.

Along the way, both the soul cars and the cloudship amazed Lan Feng'er. She hadn’t expected such comfort and enjoyment during the journey.

In their luxurious private cabin, Ye Nanxin explained the purpose of household items like the soulvision device, refrigerators, and Simmons beds—things that had all been invented by the empire’s engineering department.

"This here is called a movie. It’s a recording of the battle to defend Origin Seal City against the undead army in the Northern Region. People are calling it the most tear-jerking movie of the year," Ye Nanxin said, watching the soulvision device with deep emotion.

Lan Feng'er, captivated by the movie, was soon engrossed in the scenes. When she saw the soul warriors and imperial soldiers sacrificing themselves to protect civilians, she couldn’t help but shed tears.

"Lin Qian has ordered the production of many movies like this one to remind everyone that the life they enjoy today is thanks to the sacrifices made by countless others. The prosperity we have now is the result of everyone’s unity and efforts."

Ye Nanxin’s expression grew solemn as he watched the screen. "Those years were truly a nightmare."

He placed a comforting hand on Lan Feng'er’s shoulder. "Get ready to meet our daughter. I’m sure she’ll be overjoyed."

When the cloudship arrived at the hub station outside New Qin City, Ye Nanxin noticed that the station was much busier than usual, and he immediately understood why.

"Of course, it’s no surprise. There’s no way that kid wouldn’t know about what happened in Linhai Prefecture," Ye Nanxin muttered with a wry smile.

Lan Feng'er, still confused, followed him off the cloudship. As they walked through the exit, she saw a beautiful young woman waiting for them—someone who looked remarkably similar to herself.
