Chapter 113: Lia's Freedom

"What a pity, you didn't even bother to make Lucas join our cause. Do you really want to wait more, Yuna?" Lia commented as she was sitting on her bed.

Yuna was silent as she stood before Lia. She was disappointed in herself, but in some ways, she was glad she didn't drag Lucas into this curse.

"That legacy of becoming an ambassador is my problem and not Lucas's." Yuna remarked, which made Lia scoff.

"Despite the efforts I made after sensing him, you will try to waste that opportunity. What has come into your mind, Yuna? You were not like this, or was it that perhaps you were still thinking that he was connected with Light of Heavenly Demon Sect."

Yuna's eyes widened as she heard someone's name that she wanted to never hear again. And that also came from Lia, who she expected to be unaware of it. She was only aware that she had some idea but not to the point that she would know his name.

"How did you know it?" Yuna asked a question with some sort of dispirited tone in her speech.

"Ah... Do you think I am that weak to be protected? I let you do what you wanted, and kept me hidden from the world, as I knew it would benefit the land. But not this, Yuna. You underestimated me too much."

"You already know that they also have some divine beasts that were exempted from the rules of the four heavens. But you still didn't answer me, Lia. How did you know it."

"That is where your flaw lies, Yuna. You think that I don't have the ability to learn things in my surroundings. Even with what happened in the past, I still know them and they were not mentioning it to you." 

At that point, hearing such sentiments from Lia made her mute. Yuna was like some kind of thickheaded person that wanted to do what she thought was right, but didn't bother to ask for others' ideas.

She was shouldering everything, and unintentionally, her inner thoughts and desires affected the plans that they established.

"I am sorry, Lia. But not now. Even though Lucas doesn't participate in this cause, he still helped me. He taught me two different mystical arts that I couldn't even imagine acquiring." Yuna uttered words without a certain expression.

It was as if she was expressionless and cold at the same time, but Lia knew that Yuna was just acting her own true self and that she should not bother judging.

"I see... I don't know where that kid learned those mystical arts and I won't push myself to have him as my tool, but let me remind you, you still haven't overpassed that bottleneck you experienced, yet you are now focusing on different cultivation, which is truly messing up with your plans, Yuna."

"I know it, Lia. And now that this has come to an end, I will pursue the seclusion training, so I am also planning on having you as my representative since we don't have a choice."

That news didn't only bring excitement to Lia but also made her overjoyed. She suddenly stood up from her bed and appeared next to Yuna, holding her shoulders in surprise.

"Was it real? Are you sure, Yuna? You won't take it back?!"

Yuna could only giggle at the turn of events that happened inside Lia's personal room. It was something that Lia could only bring since her personality is diverse enough to include such coldness and jolliness.

Yuna just shook her head and tapped Lia's shoulder and said, "I am. So let's forget about what happened."

Before replying, Lia pouted slightly.

"Even if you wasted my efforts and didn't use my plan of luring Lucas using the runway show, I will try to foget it since you promised. I will do a great job of being your representative."

"Right." That was the only word that Yuna could utter before Lia asked once more.

"What level are you at, Lia?"

"I am still at the 5th level of the King Spirit Realm. And using your blood could boost my cultivation by a factor of two. But it will still be unpredictable since I am lacking the resources at the moment." Yuna commented.

"Right... Even if my blood could raise a cultivation, there are still some ingredients needed since your blood doesn't have pure spiritual energy. It could only boost the cultivation, not the cultivation base." Yuna followed.

The Sacred Blood of Taulo is a kind of blood that has the ability to boost the cultivation speed. That is the main reason Yuna doesn't want to expose Lia's existence. For some reason, even the name Taulo wasn't actually her real race.

Taulo was only made to cover up the real race Lia had, as her real race was actually rare and came from the upper heavens. Anyone could only wonder why she was here and was exempted from the acsencion rule of the Ruler, Divine Emperor, of the four heavens.

Lia is actually a vermillion bird. A rare species that no one ever had information about except that its blood can raise the cultivation speed.

What was the purpose of the cover-up? Taulo had even been relegated to legend, owing to the fact that it was on the verge of being exposed. Lia was already exposed through that legend, which is why Taulo was used, which is just another species of magical beast that has the ability to raise cultivation speed by 10%.

For the Sacred Lands, it was used to create a fuss that they were regarding Taulo as an important asset. Even though Lia left here, it was just because of the array formation that was spread that could hide her aura.

It was complex. The plans from the past were damaged, as slowly, Lia was getting exposed. What they could only do was to improvise. Now that they don't know what Lia looks like, they could use that to hide Lia as one of the officials of the Xiao family.

"I've prepared a pill that could suppress the aura you have, Lia. Even though it was too late, at least we successfully made the product." Yuna proudly said as she presented a green pill the size of a bean in front of Lia with an open palm.

Lia could only stiffen in her position as she couldn't believe that it was actually happening. For a long time, she kept her presence supressed by her own abilities and could only leave for a short time because she needed the grand array formations spread all throughout the Sacred Lands.

The lack of methods in the past made her suffer like this. Even so, she still created an effort just to be free from the shackles that she didn't want to be in just because of the legacy.

And as she received the pill, only tears could express how happy she was.

"You... Were you doing this for me? You were really doing this for me?" 

"Lia, you look like a fool if you repeat your question." Yuna uttered a deep sneer.

"Tch! I was only stunned. How could you sneer at my sincere feelings, Yuna?!"

Lia was acting like a kid now, being gifted with something that she truly wanted from her parents. And as Lia kept the pill, she wiped away the tears from her eyes and focused on Yuna's eyes.

"I am really grateful, Yuna. Let us finish this legacy and avenge our ancestors."

***

The Vermillion Bird was already mentioned as being rare and hailing from the upper heavens. However, for Lia, she didn't come from there, but her parents came from there.

The vermillion birds were said to be able to move through the boundaries of the heavens. Even so, it was like that. They weren't the only ones who had such abilities. There were plenty of divine beasts in the heavens that could do such a feat.

As for Lia's case, her parents died in the lower heavens after giving birth to her. Because of the lack of spiritual energy needed, they died supporting Lia. But why did they descend? The reason was still a mystery.

For how Lia became exempted, there was a reason behind it. The reason was that there was an order that the Ruler of the Heavens had passed on to the Mortal Heaven. They were some divine beasts that were exempted from ascending.

Lia was one of the four excempted divine beasts, and the other three had mysterious activities for which no one had any clues since only Lia was exposed. That is the reason why Lia was pursued, eventually being helped by Yuna's ancestors.

Yuna's ancestors paid respect to Yuna, as they were an orthodox family. They never looked at Lia with such greed. But of course, just to be sure, the only ones who knew it were those who were trusted by the head of the family.

And so, after the legacy was exposed, Lia was left with no choice. She has to be protected by the Xiao family because of it. And even if she wanted to escape to the upper heavens, she didn't have the ability and they were harsher. At least in this heaven, if they succeeded, Lia could attain the freedom she wanted.

And that wish wasn't a wish anymore since a pill that had been in the process of creation for a thousand years was already done. It was already concocted after a long study.

Such a thing was unexchangeable for Lia. Now that she has the ability to hide from the senses of her enemies, it is time to pay back her debt.

"What should we do with the Sacred Land?" Lia asked.

Yuna hung up and smirked at Lia, "Let's raise Taulo's, of course. It could be a preparation for the soldiers' progress. I will also leave some notes for the future generations.. A mystical art that can only be learned with unique cultivation."
