Chapter 279.3: Mother Has Gone Missing

Having spoken up till that point, Lou Jun Yao then paused for a moment, as doubts crept into his head.
“But an accident occurred in the year when she turned ten, where she accidentally fell into an icy lake while playing. Although she was pulled out of there in the nick of time, she was wrecked by a persistent high fever, her breaths growing weaker and weaker. Many elixir cultivators were at their wits end, their diagnosis determining she might not survive.”
“But in the evening on the second day, she miraculously recovered. But ever since then, her personality changed completely, like she had turned into another person, no longer wilful and domineering like before, but became strangely quiet and aloof, keeping her distance away from people. And her cultivation suddenly rose sharply, suddenly skilled and well versed in elixir cultivation, making everyone think that she had been possessed.”
Qing Yu listened quietly and then turned to him and said: “Because….. They were in fact really not the same person?”
Her mind was smart and quick and after hearing Lou Jun Yao say it so many times, she immediately thought that things were not as simple as it seemed.
The two personalities were a world apart from each other and there could only be two possibilities in such a situation.
The first would be just like her own, where a soul is resurrected in another person’s body, and the other possibility is when two different people came to be swapped entirely, as no matter how much a person changed, they could not possibly become so different from the person they were before.
“Your guess is correct.” Lou Jun Yao nodded as he said. “The real Aunt Lan is actually the current one who is well versed in medicine and elixir cultivation, a person with deep and unfathomable cultivation. All information about her first ten years came out a complete blank which makes me suspect just where Aunt Lan really came from.”
“And…..” Lou Jun Yao’s gaze grew complicated as he looked at the young lady before him as he continued to say, pausing at every word: “She also told me that if I do not want anything to happen to you, I must make sure that you do not go to the Mind Free Peak.”
A fleeting thought then seemed to flash very briefly through Qing Yu’s mind, but it happened so fast that she was unable to capture anything. She then opened her mouth to mumble softly: “Could it be possible….. that my mother is really linked to the Mind Free Peak in some way or other…..”
Although quite a bit of rumours about it has been heard, but who really knew what kind of a place it really was?
“That is what I am guessing as well. But only Aunt Lan herself will know whether that is really the truth.” Lou Jun Yao stretched his hand out to stroke the young lady’s head. “But, I am in agreement to what she said, and do not want you to put yourself at risk there.”
“It is because Mother is possibly linked to the Mind Free Peak in some way that I must go there, so that I can get a clear picture of the entire situation.” Qing Yu said persistently.
The look on Lou Jun Yao’s face was a little helpless and he was just about to say something when a tiny little stone inside the dimensional space of his storage ring suddenly reacted, pulsating with a soft flashing light.
