Where does that wicked woman get her conscience?

Chapter 256 Life experience

"stop it now!"

The sound pierced through the noise of the competition arena, carrying an almost desperate urgency that left everyone stunned.

Yu Liuhua paused subconsciously, the spiritual energy she had gathered stagnating around her, yet the yin energy emanating from it still sent chills down one's spine.

She looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the lady of the True Inheritance Hall suddenly stood up from her seat on the high platform. Her originally dignified and gentle face was full of shock and disbelief. Her eyes were fixed on Guan Xun's direction, and her pupils were slightly dilated due to extreme excitement.

Zhuge Tianxia, ​​the master of the True Inheritance Hall beside her, frowned upon seeing this and reached out to pull her back. He asked in a low voice, puzzled, "Madam, what's wrong with you? Such a loss of composure is disrespectful to our True Inheritance Hall. Or are you feeling unwell? Please sit down and rest for a while."

As the master of a palace, he held a high position, and those around him were always as calm and composed as he was, and had never before shown such a serious loss of composure.

Despite her husband's attempts to dissuade her, and seemingly oblivious to the whispers around her, Lady Zhuge, Xiao Yueluo, was captivated by the obsidian bracelet, its black sheen seemingly glued to Guan Xunhao's wrist.

The bracelet shimmered with a dazzling halo under the sunlight, and even from a distance of hundreds of meters, its seemingly insignificant details could still be clearly seen.

The obsidian bracelet is made using hundreds of bottles of crystal black liquid and takes several months to create. It looks incredibly smooth and translucent to the naked eye, but you can only feel the lines engraved on the surface of the bracelet by touching it.

The rarity of the Crystal Black Liquid is comparable to that of the stars hanging in the night sky; a bracelet crafted from it is the only one of its kind on the entire continent.

An indescribable emotion instantly swept over Xiao Yueluo's entire body, making her blood seem to boil, her fingertips tremble slightly, and her heart pound so hard it felt like it would burst out of her chest.

It's it! It must be it! The keepsake she'd searched for for countless years, longing for it day and night!

"Quickly, Tianxia, ​​take me down here! Immediately! Right now!" She gripped her husband's sleeve tightly, her voice trembling with suppressed sobs and urgency.

Her eyes were already red, with tears welling up, but she held them back.

"Madam, what's wrong with you...?" Zhuge Tianxia was even more puzzled. He couldn't understand why his usually dignified and self-possessed wife would be so out of control today. Was there something going on?

His gaze swept across the room and landed on Guan Xun. His brows furrowed immediately, because he saw the woman.

He didn't have time to think too much. Seeing Xiao Yueluo's anxious expression, as if she was about to faint, which didn't seem like a pretense, he stopped asking questions. He circulated his spiritual energy and, with a flash, leaped down from the high platform and landed steadily in the center of the arena.

The sudden appearance of the two made the already tense atmosphere even more bizarre.

Yu Liuhua frowned, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes. She didn't understand why the people from the True Inheritance Hall were getting involved. She said with dissatisfaction, "Hall Master Zhuge, Madam Zhuge, this is a matter between her and me. Please do not interfere."

The people around were also very puzzled, and the disciples from other halls also showed ambiguous expressions, and couldn't help but speculate that this beautiful woman might be from the True Inheritance Hall.

Zhuge Tianxia ignored Yu Liuhua and looked at the lady with complicated eyes, wondering what she was up to.

Xiao Yueluo was the same, ignoring everything around her. Before she could even stand up straight, she strode quickly toward Guan Xun, her steps faltering with excitement, her skirt brushing against the gravel on the ground with a rapid sound.

The people around were all astonished and began to discuss among themselves: "What's wrong with Madam Zhuge? It seems she knows someone as beautiful as a flower?"

"That's unlikely. If someone as beautiful as her were truly connected to the True Inheritance Hall, she wouldn't need to hide it. With such a status, wouldn't she be able to walk around with her head held high?"

"Madam Zhuge seems very excited. Could it be that she has some special identity despite her beauty?"

"Do you think... they might be long-lost sisters?" someone whispered.

"Isn't that a bit much? In terms of age, they're more like mother and daughter."

Upon hearing this, everyone was first taken aback, and then their hearts pounded with shock.

No way……

Guan Xun was also somewhat bewildered at this moment. Looking at the woman walking quickly towards her, she couldn't understand why this noble lady would pay so much attention to her. She could feel the complex emotions in the other woman's eyes, including ecstasy, trepidation, and an indescribable sense of closeness, which filled her with doubt.

Does Lady Zhuge know her?

She frowned slightly, noticing that the other person's gaze was fixed on her exposed arm, or rather, on the obsidian bracelet on her wrist.

A sudden realization struck me; I seemed to have guessed something.

Xiao Yueluo was not as weak as usual. She took a few big steps forward and quickly walked up to Guan Xun. She stopped, leaned down slightly, and stared intently at Guan Xun's face, as if she wanted to see through every pore. She slowly raised her hand to touch her, but suddenly stopped.

Her eyes were completely red, and tears finally streamed down her cheeks. Her voice was heavy with sobs, and every word seemed to come from the depths of her being: "Miss... could you... could you let me see the bracelet on your wrist?"

Judging from this, this Lady Zhuge is indeed the original owner's mother, and the original owner's identity is that of a young lady from the True Inheritance Hall.

The three palaces are at odds. If she suddenly gains a high and mighty status, then no matter how much Yu Liuhua tries to cause trouble, she won't be able to do anything to her.

That would be an opportunity.

Guan Xun lowered her eyes and slowly raised her wrist. The obsidian bracelet shimmered with the movement of her hand.

Xiao Yueluo's gaze fell on the bracelet, and her hands trembled as she touched it. When her fingertips touched the uneven texture on it, her lips couldn't help but tremble.

When she saw the character "荀" that she had carved herself on the inside, her body trembled violently, and she could no longer control her emotions, bursting into tears.

"It's it! It really is it!" Her trembling hands gripped Guan Xun's wrist tightly, fearing it was all just a dream.

Feeling the coldness of the bracelet, her tears flowed even more fiercely. She suddenly raised her head and stared intently at Guan Xun's face, scrutinizing him closely.

Her features... vaguely resemble her from back then, especially her eyes with slightly upturned corners, which are exactly the same as her husband Zhuge Tianxia's when he was young.

"Xun'er, my Xun'er..." Xiao Yuelu choked back tears as she murmured, repeating the name over and over, her vision blurred with tears. "I knew you were lucky and would still be alive. After more than twenty years... I've finally found you!"

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly stretched out her arms, wanting to hug Guan Xun, but she was afraid of startling her, so she moved gently and carefully.

Upon seeing this action, Guan Xun frowned and subconsciously took two steps back. Although she could roughly guess the relationship between the two women, she still had to play her part. Her tone was somewhat doubtful: "Madam, you've mistaken me for someone else, haven't you? I'm just an ordinary person. You just said... you were looking for me?"

"I haven't made a mistake! I absolutely haven't made a mistake!" Xiao Yueluo said hurriedly, her tone extremely firm. "This bracelet is one I put on my daughter's wrist myself all those years ago, and I even engraved her name on the inside. There's no mistake! Child, I am your mother! I am your biological mother!"

"what?!"

Xiao Yueluo's words exploded like thunder in the arena, and everyone was clearly shocked, their faces filled with disbelief.

"Biological mother? Lady Zhuge said that the beautiful woman was her daughter?"

"Am I hearing things? Wasn't it said that Lady Zhuge had no children? How could that be?"

"My God, is there some hidden story here?"

Yu Liuhua was instantly stunned. She never expected things to turn out so dramatically. This sinner was actually the daughter of the True Inheritance Hall Master?!

Absurd! Utterly absurd!!!

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Tianxia's face was filled with shock. He stared at his wife in astonishment, then turned to look at the bracelet on Guan Xun's wrist, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Madam, what are you saying?!"
