The woman—or rather, Cai Lianyi—had undoubtedly been a Dou Emperor when she was alive.
Because in the corner of the main hall, Xiao Jin saw Dan Xuansheng, who had fallen into a deep, unconscious sleep.
Following Xiao Jin's gaze, Cai Lianyi smiled faintly. "The person who refined this Ninth-Grade Profound Pill does have some skill. Even in the ancient era tens of thousands of years ago, very few people could merge their soul and consciousness into a pill."
As a Dou Emperor, Cai Lianyi could see through Dan Xuansheng's identity at a glance, so Xiao Jin wasn't surprised in the slightest.
Rather, it would have surprised him if she couldn't tell.
"He was able to come here, which counts as his opportunity. Don't worry. I only made him sleep for a while. Once he wakes up, he'll gain an unexpected reward."
Xiao Jin nodded woodenly. Since Cai Lianyi was connected to his mother, she wouldn't harm the people around him.
It seemed that Dan Xuansheng would break through to Six-Star Dou Saint even earlier than in the original story.
Now that he had confirmed Dan Xuansheng was fine, Xiao Jin planned to ask some proper questions.
The last time he had been at Feng Qingyao's relic, that woman hadn't said a word before throwing him out.
"Senior..."
"Just call me Aunt Cai. That's what you call Little Feng anyway, isn't it?" Cai Lianyi's voice was gentle and beautiful, completely different from her appearance.
Talking to her always gave him the feeling of being bathed in a spring breeze.
"All right, Aunt Cai." Xiao Jin didn't dwell on the form of address. "Is there anything my mother left behind here?"
That was what he cared about most. Even now, Xiao Jin still didn't know how to unseal his Dou Emperor Bloodline.
