Four Elders of the Divine Pool Holy Land confronted Lionel Yeager's group for intruding and injuring disciples, threatening dire punishment amid rising tensions. Gu Qinglan revealed Gina Stern's awakening of the Holy Land's unique Innate Glaze Holy Body, astonishing the Elders. Elder Mei Ruogu, a Nine Heavens Ascended Immortal, arrived and identified Gina's striking resemblance to the expelled former Holy Lord Yan Qingwu.

The moment those words rang out,

shock rippled through the entire audience.

The disciples from the Divine Pool Holy Land were especially stunned into silence.

They had never heard the name 'Yan Qingwu' before, unaware that she once served as their Holy Lord.

Puzzled, Ji Yundeep inquired: 'Sister Mei, since this Yan Qingwu you mentioned was the previous Holy Lord, why is there no information left about her in our Divine Pool Holy Land?'

'Hmph!'

Mei Ruogu snorted coldly and declared, 'That wretched girl committed an unforgivable sin, becoming the disgrace of our Divine Pool Holy Land!

All traces of her were thoroughly erased, so of course you wouldn't know!'

With that, her gaze locked onto Gina Stern as she demanded, 'Little girl, what’s your name?'

A bit dazed, Gina Stern replied blankly: 'I... My name is Gina Stern...'

Her words had just faded!

Mei Ruogu demanded furiously, 'What is that scum Gary Stern to you?!'

'Ah?!'

Terrified, Gina Stern stumbled back several steps, trembling as she whispered, 'He... he is my father...'

At Gina Stern’s response,

Mei Ruogu shook with rage, her breaths quickening, dark fury brewing in her eyes with a chilling glint, 'Just as I thought, just as I thought!'

'Sister Mei, what’s wrong?'

Ji Yundeep hurriedly asked.

Grinding her teeth, Mei Ruogu spat venomously, 'You truly are the daughter of that scum Gary Stern!

No wonder your features resemble that villain so closely, no wonder!'

Gina Stern lifted her chin defiantly and shot back, 'I won’t let you insult my father like that!'

'I will insult him!'

Mei Ruogu exploded in anger, 'Gary Stern is a scum, a despicable traitor, a betrayer!

I don’t just want to curse that villain—I want to rip him apart!

Without that scum, Qingwu never would have fallen for him!

Qingwu abandoned everything in the Divine Pool Holy Land just to follow that scum!

Had Qingwu stayed, she might have risen as the next Yaoci Empress, restoring our Divine Pool Holy Land to its past glory!'

Boom!

Gina Stern’s mind went blank, her body quaking uncontrollably, 'Could Yan Qingwu be my mother?!'

Lionel Yeager jolted in surprise!

So, his Fifth Senior Sister’s mother was the former Holy Lord of the Divine Pool Holy Land!

Zhu Yuan, Luo Xingchu, Albert Swan, and the others gaped at Gina Stern in disbelief, utterly shocked!

'Damn!'

Bardon Bard burst out, 'This is explosive—Mrs. Stern’s mother turned out to be the previous Holy Lord of the Divine Pool Holy Land, utterly unbelievable!'

Ji Yundeep quickly pressed, 'Sister Mei, what exactly happened?

Can you explain the events from back then?'

'Forget it...'

Mei Ruogu let out a heavy sigh and continued, 'I had no intention of revisiting those two scoundrels.

But with their daughter here now, I’ll reveal the truth...'

In the time that followed, Mei Ruogu detailed the past events.

Lionel Yeager and the rest listened intently, finally grasping the full story.

Long ago, the Divine Pool Holy Land produced a peerless prodigy named Yan Qingwu.

At a tender age, Yan Qingwu fully awakened the 'Innate Glaze Holy Body' and ascended to Holy Lord, earning the utmost praise from the Divine Pool Holy Land's elders.

Yet during her training expedition, she encountered a brilliant young genius named Gary Stern; after years together, they developed deep feelings.

Upon learning this, the Divine Pool Holy Land erupted in fury, confining Yan Qingwu within its bounds while dispatching hunters after Gary Stern.

Gary Stern evaded capture and stormed the Divine Pool Holy Land multiple times to free Yan Qingwu.

The first nine assaults ended in defeat for Gary Stern.

But on the tenth raid, Gary Stern arrived with several supreme experts, unleashing chaos in the Divine Pool Holy Land, wounding every elder, and spiriting Yan Qingwu away.

Only after Mei Ruogu concluded her tale

did silence blanket everyone present.

'Father, mother...'

Gina Stern broke down in sobs, tears streaming down her face.

She never imagined her parents endured such perils merely to stay together.

Now it made sense why her father returned from Earth to visit her, always battered and bruised.

She understood why he often gazed vacantly at the heavens alone.

Perhaps in those moments, he longed for her mother.

Gu Qinglan’s eyes brimmed with tears, whispering, 'What manner of love in this world dares to defy life and death...'

'Qinglan!'

Mei Ruogu barked sharply, 'Are you pitying that pair of scoundrels?'

'Disciple wouldn’t dare!'

Gu Qinglan hastily bowed her head.

Mei Ruogu spoke in an icy tone, "Qinglan, even if your talent, comprehension, and potential can't match Yan Qingwu’s, you're still viewed as exceptional.

Right now, you've risen to become the Holy Lord of our Divine Pool Holy Land, with a promising path stretching before you.

We'll guide your growth carefully, propelling you toward the highest peak.

Forget about those mortal romantic ties without delay.

Should you ever try to walk Yan Qingwu’s former road, you're fully aware of the dire outcomes."

"Understood, Elder Mei!"

Gu Qinglan bobbed her head frantically, quaking in terror.

Bardon Bard grumbled in displeasure, "Hey, old lady, are you utterly lacking in feelings?

Mrs. Stern’s parents share true love, so fine if you won't offer blessings, but splitting them up?

All that Supreme Forgetting Emotions talk is absurd—what separates a emotionless person from a lifeless corpse?"

"Scumbag!"

Mei Ruogu roared furiously, "You little monk, what could you possibly understand?

Our Divine Pool Holy Land has practiced ’Supreme Forgetting Emotions’ since ancient eras up to today!

Releasing every mortal sentiment and immersing fully in cultivation—that's the path to Dao's apex!

Love between man and woman? Pure childish nonsense!"

Tears already soaked Gina Stern's face as she rasped hoarsely, "Where have my father and mother gone?"

"How would I know!"

Mei Ruogu snapped in rage, "Had I any clue of their whereabouts, a single strike from me would've ended them ages ago!"

While saying this, she eyed Gina Stern with narrowed gaze, declaring smugly, "You're the child of those scumbags, yet I admit you've gained their cultivation talent, comprehension, and potential!

So young, and you've awakened the ’Innate Glaze Holy Body’, your future holds endless promise!

Beginning today, remain here in our Divine Pool Holy Land—we'll cultivate you superbly to succeed as the next Holy Lord!"

Gina Stern brushed away her tears while sobbing, "I refuse to become Holy Lord; I only seek my father and mother!"

"Your wishes don't matter!"

Mei Ruogu bellowed, lifting her left hand as a burst of energy exploded outward.

Gina Stern barely had time to respond before her body seized up, soaring uncontrollably toward Mei Ruogu.

Mei Ruogu clutched Gina Stern firmly with one hand, sneering, "Little girl, you'll now take over for your mother!"

"No!"

Gina Stern flailed wildly in resistance, "Release me! Let me go!"

"Release my Fifth Senior Sister!"

Lionel Yeager bellowed too.

"Let go of Mrs. Stern!"

"Old woman, how dare you snatch someone by force like this!"

Bardon Bard, Albert Swan, and the rest yelled out in horror.

"Hold on!"

In that instant, Mei Ruogu’s face twisted abruptly. Detecting an anomaly, she fixed a piercing stare on Gina Stern, "Little girl, you've already lost your virginity?!"
