Chapter 153 King Xia is seriously injured
South Water City!
Now it is shrouded in tension and busyness.
In the City Lord's Mansion, everyone is working with all their might.
The reserve personnel of the law enforcement team and the city defense team are undergoing rigorous tests and need to prove their loyalty and ability.
Zhang Chentian, the mayor of Nanshui City, and Xia Aofeng and the other four "veterans" were extremely busy.
They need to deal with various affairs, including city defense, resource allocation, and communication and cooperation with other forces.
Every day is so busy, but they know that they have a heavy responsibility and must do their best to ensure the safety and prosperity of Nanshui City.
……
Empire!
"Father, how did you get so badly injured? How do you feel now?"
Xia Aoxue looked at King Xia lying on the bed covered in blood and looking weak, and said in a crying voice.
She held her father's hand tightly, her eyes full of concern and worry.
Tears welled up in my eyes, as if they would fall at any moment.
"I'm fine, Xue'er. I got the Exquisite Sacred Heart Grass back. Even though it cost me all the favors from my royal family, it will be worth it as long as you can awaken the Exquisite Sacred Body."
On the bed, King Xia looked at Xia Aoxue weakly and said.
His voice was a little hoarse, but his eyes were full of determination.
He knew that this action was crucial to his daughter's future and was worth it no matter what the cost.
"Father, this is not what I want. I just want our family to be well."
Xia Aoxue couldn't hold it in any longer and cried.
She threw herself into her father's arms, feeling his weak heartbeat, her heart filled with guilt and self-blame.
If she had a choice, she would rather not have this so-called exquisite holy body than let her father suffer such serious harm.
"Xue'er, remember, if you want our family to be well, you must have absolute strength."
"We must protect our strength, our overwhelming power, so that we can cope with any sudden danger."
King Xia looked at Xia Aoxue seriously and spoke word by word.
Although King Xia was seriously injured and his voice was weak, as the ruler of a dynasty, he was very majestic at this time.
He reached out his trembling hand and gently stroked his daughter's hair, tears glistening in his eyes.
He hopes his daughter can understand that only by becoming strong can she protect the people she loves and not be shaken by external threats.
Looking at her father's expectant eyes, Xia Aoxue felt a pang in her heart and couldn't help but shed tears.
She quickly reached out to wipe away the tears from her face, suppressed her sadness, and said with red eyes:
"Father, I understand. I will practice diligently and will definitely not let you and Mother down."
"Alright, Xue'er, go back and prepare. Let your father rest and recover from his injuries."
"The spiritual medicines you need to awaken your physique have been prepared. Tomorrow, the ancestor will personally awaken you."
At this moment, a gentle voice came from the bedside.
The person who spoke was a beautiful woman with red and swollen eyes, dressed in gorgeous clothes. She was Xia Aoxue's mother and the queen of the Linyue Dynasty.
Hearing her mother's words, Xia Aoxue nodded obediently and replied softly:
"Okay, mother, I will prepare well. I will definitely awaken the Holy Body and will not let father's efforts go to waste."
"Xue'er, don't put too much pressure on yourself. It doesn't matter if you can't awaken the Holy Body. Just do your best."
On the bed, King Xia looked at Xia Aoxue, his eyes full of care and love.
He didn't want his beloved daughter to fall into depression and self-blame because she couldn't awaken the Holy Body.
Xia Aoxue bit her lips tightly and nodded vigorously to show that she understood.
Then she turned and left the room, returning to her own quarters to begin making final preparations for tomorrow's awakening ceremony.
"I know, Father, Mother, I'll take my leave now!"
Xia Aoxue stood up, bowed to her parents, and turned to leave the room.
After leaving the room, Xia Aoxue went straight to the Xia family's Sutra Library, where various precious techniques, martial arts, and classics accumulated by the Xia family over the years were stored.
Without any hesitation, she went straight to the fifth floor of the Sutra Library.
As the daughter of King Xia, she has the authority to enter this level.
Although there are no special guards guarding the Xia family's Sutra Library, no one or any force dares to act rashly here.
The reason is that there is an elder from the Xia family guarding here, and he is a great master at the peak of the late spiritual realm.
At the same time, three fifth-grade supreme formations were also deployed. It is no exaggeration to say that this is one of the safest places in the entire dynasty, second only to the inner courtyard of the royal palace.
After arriving at the fifth floor, Xia Aoxue quickly found books related to the Linglong King Body and carefully read the records and precautions about awakening the Linglong King Body and advancing to the Holy Body.
The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds, softly illuminating the earth.
Xia Aoxue was taken to the Xia family's ancestral tomb, a solemn and mysterious place.
The Xia family ancestral tomb is the holy place where the ancestor of the Xia family practiced in seclusion. Normally, no one would step into this forbidden area unless a major event occurred.
Even King Xia rarely set foot here.
When she arrived at the ancestral mausoleum, Xia Aoxue felt extremely nervous.
After all, she had never seen the old ancestor in the past twenty-two years and knew nothing about him. Therefore, she could not predict his personality and character.
"You are Xia Aoxue, right?"
A low and gentle voice sounded, breaking the silence.
The old man sitting on the futon slowly opened his eyes, his gaze fell on Xia Aoxue, with a faint smile on his lips, and asked softly.
Although the old man did not exude any aura, his towering figure like a mountain inspired awe.
It was as if an invisible pressure enveloped the entire space. He was the ancestor of the Xia family—Xia Qingtian.
"Xia Aoxue, a younger disciple of the Xia family, pays homage to the ancestor!"
Hearing the ancestor's question, Xia Aoxue quickly knelt down and saluted, with a respectful expression and a solemn tone.
"Hahaha, you don't have to be so nervous. Xia Qiling really didn't lie to me, an old man."
"Your talent is much stronger than mine. If you grow up, you will surely make the Linyue Dynasty prosperous for a thousand years."
Xia Qingtian looked at Xia Aoxue and exclaimed with a smile.
Xia Qiling is naturally the name of the current King Xia.
"How can the younger generation compare with the ancestor..."
Xia Aoxue said flattered.
Her heart was filled with shock and gratitude.
She knew very well that it was a rare honor for her to receive such praise from Xia Qingtian.
However, she also understands that she still has a long way to go and cannot be complacent.
However, before she could finish, Xia Qingtian interrupted her:
"Don't be so modest, little girl. Although I am old, my eyes are not blurry yet."
He smiled and shook his head, then continued:
"Your talent is extremely rare no matter what era it is in."
"As long as you practice diligently, your future achievements will be limitless."
Hearing this, Xia Aoxue was even more moved.
She knew that Xia Qingtian had high hopes for her and hoped that she could become the pillar of the family.
She took a deep breath and said firmly:
"Thank you for your praise, Old Ancestor. I will definitely not let you down!"
After saying that, she bowed to Xia Qingtian again to express her determination.
