Chapter 1244: Ink Lotus Seal
Meanwhile, Mo Lian, who hadn’t gone far from the Marquis of Jiayuan’s Estate, looked irritably at the uninvited guest who had suddenly leaped onto his carriage.
“Your Highness! He?” Huifeng pulled his lips into a line as he glared at the fat old man who had disregarded etiquette and suddenly hopped onto Their Highness’s carriage.
However, Mo Lian raised his hand to stop him from speaking more, stating, “It’s fine, you’re all dismissed.”
“Your Highness, do you truly want to continue staying here?”
“I had already told Second Elder clearly when he came to find me previously. I need at least a year’s time before I can leave.”
“Is there that much tying you down in the secular realm of the Lower Star Domain?” The fat elder sighed, “His Majesty is nearly about to lose all his patience.”
Afterwards, the fat elder observed him. “Besides, the sacred fire in your body is about to resurge. The ancient ink lotus seal cannot not suppress the sacred fire from awakening. At that time, when the seal breaks and the sacred fire awakens, the two will merge, making you recover your divine-realm cultivation straightaway. The Lower Star Domain simply cannot admit you, nor will Heavenly Law let you off.”
“Right now, the reason you can move about freely under Heavenly Law’s nose is completely due to the suppression of the ink lotus seal on your body.” The fat elder continued with a sigh, “You are the person who has inherited the oldest ancient lotus seal. Why are you still reluctant to leave this branch family in the secular realm? If not for the internal disorder in the Divine Province that year that caused instability in the political situation, His Imperial Majesty the Emperor…”
“Alright, don’t say any more.” At this point, Mo Lian indifferently broke off Third Elder’s rambling. “I already made myself clear to Second Elder last time. I still need one more year. I will not leave or go anywhere during this year.”
The fat elder exhaled heavily. “Your Highness! But the seal on your body is certain to break on its own within three months. How much more willful do you have to be? Don’t you also understand very well? Once the death lotus seal grasps the third layer, it is impossible to stop the seal from breaking. Even doing your utmost to suppress it is useless.”
Mo Lian turned around coolly before looking at the fat elder. “Third Uncle, I cannot go back. At least not right now.”
“You child, you just.” The fat elder lamented with a sigh as he shook his head, “Just as obstinately stubborn as your mom.”
The fat elder sighed again before taking out a small black tower the size of his palm from his pocket and throwing it at him. “Keep this on you. It can conceal the aura of the divine-realm cultivation immediately about to flow out from your body.”
The fat elder straightened his body before squatting before Mo Lian, exhorting earnestly, “I say, you child, what if Heavenly Law discovered you. That would make things very troublesome.”
“Third Uncle.”
“Fine.” The fat elder waved his hand. When he saw the picturesque young child in front of him, and he couldn’t resist worrying with a sigh, “Just look at you child. You got thrown into the Lower Star Domain to avoid some matters as well as to undergo practical training. Yet your heart has gotten so wild.”
“Will your dad acknowledge the wife you marry in this Lower Star Domain?”
“Who needs his acknowledgment.” Mo Lian scoffed. “My matters do not need his meddling, nor does the wife I marry need his recognition.”
The third elder was promptly exasperated when he heard this, and he pointed at Mo Lian with a trembling finger. “You father and son are both the same!”
