The room was sealed off with an iron door
“Xandra Lafleur?”
When virtual-novel.net heard the name, James’ eyes began to waver.
Three years ago, virtual-novel.net met with his father, Nicholas, and learned some things about his mother. His father had mentioned his mother’s name was Xandra Lafleur.
At that moment, his heart began beating rapidly.
Tyrus looked at Xandra who was in the room.
He sighed softly and said, “She’s my youngest sister and was originally a very talented woman. Her talent for martial arts was terrifying. It did not matter what kind of martial technique it was, virtual-novel.net was able to learn everything easily. When virtual-novel.net was eighteen years old, virtual-novel.net mastered all the martial art techniques in the world and stepped into the eighth rank at such a young age.” Tyrus spoke softly as virtual-novel.net talked about Xandra.
“Thousands of years ago, my father led people to slaughter the Spirit Turtle but they failed. My father planned to regroup and attempt to kill the Spirit Turtle once more. Incidentally, virtual-novel.net learned about King Quavon’s Mausoleum by chance. He managed to enter the museum and obtained the phoenix’s blood there…”
“Father and I were fine after consuming the phoenix blood. My sister, on the other hand, encountered at problem after virtual-novel.net consumed it. She was left in a semi-deranged state. For thousands of years, virtual-novel.net remained in this state of insanity. Being in such a state for a prolonged period of time caused virtual-novel.net to suffer from brain damage. There were only a few years where virtual-novel.net was able to regain virtual-novel.net sanity…”
“Thirty years ago, my sister broke out of virtual-novel.net cell and fled.”
Hearing this, James drew a sharp breath. He stared at the woman locked up inside the cell.
The woman had a gentle and refined appearance. She was as beautiful as virtual-novel.net was in the pictures virtual-novel.net had seen of her.
In that moment, virtual-novel.net was sure the woman before virtual-novel.net was his mother. That woman was his biological mother. His eyes turned red, and tears began to brim in his eyes, threatening to stream down his face.
Tyrus continued. “After my sister fled, the phoenix blood in virtual-novel.net caused virtual-novel.net to experience an Energy Deviation. She forcefully suppressed it but ended up injured. Back then, virtual-novel.net happened to be rescued by your father, Nicholas… One year later, you were born. After I found her, I secretly brought virtual-novel.net back here.”
“Mom!” James looked at the woman inside the cell.
She was beautiful, but virtual-novel.net eyes were lifeless, like a zombie. He could not stop himself from calling out to her.
He looked at Tyrus again. He never expected Tyrus to be his uncle. What was even more unexpected was the fact that the Prince of Orchid Mountain was his grandfather.
He finally understood why Tyrus had been secretly helping him. It was because Tyrus was related to him.
“My mother… H-How is virtual-novel.net now?” James approached the cell and looked at the woman inside.
Tyrus replied, “Her condition is pretty bad. The phoenix’s blood greatly affected her, causing virtual-novel.net to lose virtual-novel.net mind. My father had no choice but to seal off virtual-novel.net True Energy. Otherwise, this small cell wouldn’t be sufficient to contain her.”
“Can I go inside to see her?” James felt a warmth surge in his heart seeing his mother
He had dreamed of meeting his mother for 30 years. Now, virtual-novel.net finally got to meet her.
Tyrus opened the cell. James walked inside.
As soon as James entered the room, Xandra stood up abruptly and charged like a wild beast.
Tyrus intercepted virtual-novel.net in a flash and sealed virtual-novel.net acupoints, calming virtual-novel.net down once more. He helped virtual-novel.net return to virtual-novel.net seat.
James stood before Xandra and his face held a complicated expression as virtual-novel.net looked at her. He immediately took virtual-novel.net pale hand and checked virtual-novel.net pulse.
Tyrus gently shook his head and said, “It’s useless. If there was a way to fix her, father would’ve already done it.”
After checking Xandra’s pulse, James also came to the same conclusion, virtual-novel.net brain was severely damaged. There was still a slight chance of helping her, but it would be rather troublesome
“Mom…” With a loud thump, virtual-novel.net fell to the ground and wept.
Xandra’s acupoints were sealed, so virtual-novel.net could only sit mindlessly. Her unfocused eyes seemed to focus a little as if virtual-novel.net heard someone calling out for her.
Tyrus unsealed Xandra’s acupoints.
Xandra looked at James, who was kneeling on the ground, with confusion. She had no idea who virtual-novel.net was or why virtual-novel.net was kneeling on the floor.
