Chapter 75 Lin Dong

Chapter 75: Lin Dong

By the time Lin Shui Rou arrived at the restricted area of the Soft Water Holy Land, she saw that within the restricted area existed a Small World, which Lin Shui Rou had clearly opened up. Around the Small World were countless Formations, looking as if they were imprisoning something.

And clearly, the one inside the Formations was Lin Zixin.

Arriving before the Small World, Lin Shui Rou waved her hand, removing the Formations that were confining the Small World, and then directly entered the Small World.

Inside the Small World, she saw Lin Zixin's figure sitting cross-legged and cultivating in the depths of the Small World. From the aura emanating from Lin Zixin, it was clear that Lin Zixin had successfully broken through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

As if sensing Lin Shui Rou's arrival, Lin Zixin slowly opened her eyes. Her gaze towards Lin Shui Rou was full of apology, but she still spoke with a firm tone.

"Mother, I want to see Dong'er."

Hearing Lin Zixin's words, Lin Shui Rou's brows furrowed slightly. She sighed helplessly and said.

"Can't you even endure this ten-year period? You should know that back then, Mother's ten years of imprisonment to protect your position as Saintess was already a very short time."

"But ten years will pass, and Dong'er will also grow up. I can't let my child's childhood be without me by his side!"

Lin Zixin was filled with the radiance of maternal love and said without hesitation.

But Lin Shui Rou's Face suddenly turned grim, and she lowed.

"Nonsense, Dong'er possesses the Innate Dao Embryo Saint Body. He will be the candidate to lead our Soft Water Holy Land towards glory. Moreover, you also need to know that you cannot pamper Dong'er too much. Before the age of eight, Dong'er needs to lay a good Foundation so that he can soar directly after starting cultivation!"

It was the first time Lin Zixin had seen her mother like this. A bitter smile appeared on her Face, and her thoughts drifted back to earlier.

Not long after preparing to go into seclusion to break through to the Quasi-Emperor, Lin Zixin felt a discomfort in her body. Only after checking did she discover that she was pregnant.

Originally, Lin Zixin had thought about getting rid of it. After all, she was supposed to lead the entire Soft Water Holy Land towards a more glorious tomorrow, so how could she care about matters of personal affection?

But just as Lin Zixin was preparing to abort the fetus in her womb, she hesitated. The child was innocent, and she couldn't let the child die prematurely because of her. At the very least, she had to give the child a chance to choose.

So, under a strange impulse, Lin Zixin gave birth during her seclusion.

Looking at the cute infant in her arms, still with closed eyes, Lin Zixin froze in place. It was the first time she had held a child, and it was her own child. A feeling called maternal love unknowingly occupied her heart.

Because she didn't know Wu Yifan's name, Lin Zixin could only let the child take her surname. She named him "Dong," hoping the child would be lively and active, so he was called Lin Dong.

However, the good times didn't last long. Soon, Lin Zixin successfully broke through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm. During her tribulation, the commotion here could no longer be suppressed.

And Lin Shui Rou and others who rushed over also saw Lin Dong. Instantly, they were filled with rage. One must know that Lin Zixin was the Saintess of the Soft Water Holy Land. If it were spread that the Saintess of the Soft Water Holy Land got pregnant before marriage, it would be a loss of Face for the Soft Water Holy Land.

Therefore, after unanimous discussion among Lin Shui Rou and others, the final decision for Lin Zixin's punishment was ten years of imprisonment, during which she was not allowed to see her child. This was undoubtedly a huge torment for Lin Zixin, but there was no other way; this was already considered a very light punishment.

If it were any other Saintess, something like this would likely have resulted in her being crippled long ago. No matter where, what forces value most is Face, and Holy Lands are no exception.

However, not long after, they discovered that Lin Dong's Physique was the legendary Innate Dao Embryo Saint Body, which was said to be the Physique closest to the Dao. This meant that if Lin Dong were to start cultivating, Great Emperor would definitely not be the peak for him.

Therefore, after discovering this matter, the Soft Water Holy Land secretly nurtured Lin Dong, striving to make his cultivation smoother when he began.

"But, I don't want my son to become a tool for the Soft Water Holy Land."

Lin Zixin's eyes couldn't help but turn red. At this moment, she spoke not as the Saintess of the Soft Water Holy Land, but as a mother, an incomparably simple mother.

Lin Shui Rou also turned her head away, feeling a bit unwilling, but still spoke with a strong tone.

"Bear with it a little longer. Anyway, there are only five years left. You will be out after five years, and by then, you will represent our Soft Water Holy Land to participate in the Four Saints Tournament."

After saying that, Lin Shui Rou no longer paid attention to Lin Zixin's reaction and left the Small World.

The Soft Water Holy Land was not her personal domain; she also needed to consider the other Elders and give them Face. Therefore, ten years of imprisonment was already considered the lightest punishment. After all, Lin Zixin had just broken through to the Quasi-Emperor, and she could use the ten years to properly settle down.

Lin Zixin looked at her mother's departing back, her heart filled with guilt towards Lin Dong.

"Child, I'm sorry. It's Mother who is sorry for you, for not being able to be by your side. Wait for me, Mother will come out to find you soon, and by then, Mother will always be by your side."

But soon, Lin Zixin seemed to think of something else, and her heart was filled with melancholy.

"I don't know how you're doing, but you probably don't know that we have a child, right? If you knew, I hope you would come looking for us."

"Forget it, never mind. Mother is too powerful, you are not Mother's opponent. Just live well."

As if she thought of something, Lin Zixin's heart was filled with despair. Judging by how much her mother cared for her, if Wu Yifan really appeared before her mother, then her mother would truly destroy Wu Yifan.

Of course, unless Wu Yifan had a force behind him that could rival the Soft Water Holy Land, but Lin Zixin had already dismissed this point from the beginning. After all, if Wu Yifan really had a force behind him that could rival the Soft Water Holy Land, then he wouldn't have been chased by her.

On the other side, after leaving the Small World, Lin Shui Rou thought of something, couldn't help but sigh, and then walked towards a certain place in the Holy Land, quickly arriving at a large mountain.

And upon arriving at the large mountain, a smile couldn't help but appear on Lin Shui Rou's Face. She quickly arrived in front of a mansion, where she saw two guards in the Saint King Realm standing. After seeing Lin Shui Rou approach, they immediately bowed respectfully.

"Greetings, Holy Lord."

"Mm, how is Holy Son Lord doing now?"

Lin Shui Rou waved her hand and then asked in a calm tone.

After knowing that Lin Dong possessed the Innate Dao Embryo Saint Body, Lin Shui Rou overruled all dissenting opinions and decided that Lin Dong would become the Holy Son of the Soft Water Holy Land.

"Holy Lord, Holy Son Lord is also very quiet today, just playing by himself."

One of the Saint King powerhouses quickly reported.

Lin Shui Rou nodded and then walked in.
