This was the choice Lu Xuan made after envisioning the worst possible scenario.
In his previous life, Lu Xuan often disregarded everything else and took great risks just to survive, rushing headlong into the situations he faced.
That was because he had no other choice.
After his rebirth, however, Lu Xuan took the lead and made various plans to counter the situations that would occur.
Naturally, he did not need to rush like in his previous life, although the Tempest Ocean Realm coming dozens of years in advance had taken him by surprise.
Fortunately, many of his plans had already been carried out a long time ago. If these people came now, it wouldn’t affect any of his arrangements.
Liu Wanrong breathed a sigh of relief when she saw how confident Lu Xuan was. Her son didn’t seem to be joking, and she had long been accustomed to the way her son seemed to be able to solve all of his problems.
“Xuan’er, can you tell me now what exactly happened to the Holy Sun Continent? It looked like you wanted to talk about it before but didn’t. I didn’t want to ask back then, so can you tell me now?” Liu Wanrong looked at Lu Xuan, her beautiful eyes showing her determination.
When Lu Xuan came back before, he was slightly hesitant to talk about what happened, so she chose not to question him. After all, the most important thing was that her son had come back safely.
Now, however, she could no longer resist the temptation to ask the question.
Lu Xuan sighed. At the time, he hesitated to say anything not because he wanted to hide it from his mother, but because he didn’t know where to begin.
The family that his mother had been pining for had long been destroyed decades ago, leaving only the offspring of an illegitimate child. This descendant had also almost been killed.
Lu Xuan didn’t even know what he would say in such a situation.
However, since his mother had already asked about it, Lu Xuan would not hide it. He began telling his mother about what he had learned during his journey.
Liu Wanrong was stunned. Never had she imagined that the Liu family would be destroyed like this.
She had never forgotten them and wanted to go back even after decades had passed because the Liu family was a family of cultivators; their life span was bound to be very long. To them, decades were but a moment in their lives.
At the time, as the eldest daughter in the family, she was unwilling to give in to the family’s wishes to marry. Now that she was a mother, her mentality was naturally different from before.
She never expected the parting from before had become an eternal farewell.
The only remaining member of the Liu family was the fledgling of her elder brother’s illegitimate son.
This fledgling was truly the only child left. With the Immemorial Path’s ability to control the continent, it was impossible not to have found out the other survivors otherwise.
After grieving, Liu Wanrong only felt a deep chill in her heart. She never expected someone to be controlling the Holy Sun Continent from behind the scenes, constantly hunting down the bloodline of the sacred ones.
If she didn’t choose to run from the Liu family, she would have been hunted down alongside them.
Thinking about the fact that she had been someone else’s target, Liu Wanrong couldn’t help but suck in a breath.
How terrifying!
To make matters even more terrifying, she still let her son go to the Holy Sun Continent despite not knowing anything that happened.
Although Lu Xuan had downplayed the fierce battles, she knew how dangerous it was during his journey. If the mastermind behind the scenes had acted slightly earlier, it would have been a significant threat to Lu Xuan’s life.
In other words, her ignorance had forced her son to walk into danger, causing her to feel lingering fear and chilly regret.
After becoming a parent, her mentality changed completely.
Lu Xuan glanced at Liu Wanrong and said, “Mother, that’s roughly it!”
It took a long time for Liu Wanrong to return to her senses. Once she did, she said, “I was reckless. I didn’t expect that there was such a schemer behind the scenes!”
“It wasn’t much. Anyway, I’ve already cut down the schemer. Mom, you can go back any time you want in the future, whether it’s to take a look at Little Haotian or the ruins of the Liu family!”
Lu Xuan smiled and said, “Since I’ve already cleaned it out several times, there’s no need to worry about danger even if you go back often. Feel free to bring along father to pay respects to Grandpa and Grandma, as well as the ancestors of the Liu family!”
With Liu Wanrong’s current strength, there was no problem with dominating the Holy Sun Continent. Although they were all Three Flower Realm masters who had condensed a flower, Liu Wanrong could still beat up Xuanyangzi.
Both sides weren’t even on the same level!
Liu Wanrong nodded and said, “You’re right. I should go back! I’ll bring your father to pay respects to the Liu family’s ancestors whenever I get the chance!”
Liu Wanrong nodded, feeling some longing in her heart. Now that her son had cleared out the dangers, she naturally didn’t have to worry or be afraid.
After all, it was different from how it was decades ago. Back then, she was just an ordinary daughter of the Liu family, completely unable to control her own destiny.
Now, things were different. She already stood at the pinnacle of the Holy Sun Continent, and nobody dared to dictate what she does.
Satisfied with how Lu Xuan took care of Liu Haotian, Liu Wanrong said, “By the way, you’ve handled the issues of little Haotian very well. The Liu family needs someone to continue the family line. In the future, the Liu family’s prosperity and the resurrection of the sacred ones’ bloodline will all depend on him alone!”
Although Lu Xuan also had the bloodline of the sacred ones, he was still a human in the end. His surname is Lu, not Liu. The differences between the two were simply too great to compare.
Lu Xuan nodded and said with confidence, “Yes, I agree with that as well. The little fellow has experienced a lot and is wise for his young age. Sooner or later, he will grow up to become an important pillar of the Holy Sun Continent!”
Liu Wanrong then replied, “In that case, I no longer have any apprehensions. Just go and do what you feel is right. I will take care of the Yunxuan Villa, so don’t worry!”
Lu Xuan nodded and said, “All right!”
Meanwhile, the rest of the world was still in chaos, discussing how Lu Xuan killed the Lightning-Winged Wolf King and subdued the other three monster kings.
Under Lu Xuan’s support, the Earth Federation also began moving at lightning speed.
Meanwhile, every single base of the Resistance across the world spread throughout the earth had been fatally hit by the Earth Federation. Large numbers of masters were airdropped, forcibly breaking into the bases. Everyone who resisted was killed on the spot.
The Earth Federation had also endured the presence of the Resistance for a very long time until they lost every last bit of patience they had.
Under the Tempest Ocean Realm’s support in recent years, the Resistance had grown increasingly arrogant to the point of being flagrant.
At first, they acted like sewer rats—they were willing to wreak havoc banditry, arson, and vandalism while hiding their true identities.
