Chapter 853: The Ancestral Garden

The Great Elder said that their clan had a secret realm, the first ancestral land of the Medicine God Valley, where the Little Medicine God might find an opportunity and recover her memories.

Yang Tian nodded. Since it was the first ancestral land, it must contain extraordinary opportunities.

“How many people will enter your ancestral land when it opens?” He then raised the most critical question. If the one who harmed the Little Medicine God was among them, it would be a huge trouble.

In her current state, the Little Medicine God might die in that ancestral land, which he did not want to see.

“Nine,” the Great Elder said without hesitation. The ancestral land could only accommodate nine beings at a time.

“Aren’t you afraid that the Little Medicine God might get into trouble inside? Perhaps the one who harmed her is among them.” Yang Tian’s eyes flashed with a cold gleam as he spoke.

“How is that possible? These nine beings are the most trusted clansmen of our Medicine God Valley. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be allowed into the first ancestral land,” the Great Elder shook his head.

The Third Elder disagreed. He had always suspected Murong Feng was behind it, and this time Murong Feng was the guide. If they sent the Little Medicine God there, wouldn’t that be walking into a trap?

Yang Tian said directly, “The Medicine God Valley is heavily guarded with numerous great killing formations. Even a Great Divine Ability cultivator couldn’t enter silently, could they? Let alone kidnap your clan’s little princess?”

“The one who could do such a thing silently is probably one of your trusted people, right?” Yang Tian sneered, not sparing their feelings.

The Great Elder frowned, his expression uncertain. He couldn’t refute this. He had suspected it before, but found no clues.

“Let’s not decide where the Little Medicine God should go yet. Shouldn’t you consider whether she wants to go?” Yang Tian said irritably. The Little Medicine God was now afraid of strangers, and he didn’t want her to get hurt inside.

“True, we should ask the little princess’s opinion.” Both elders nodded in agreement.

After they spoke, the little girl was summoned again. Yang Tian asked her a few questions, and the Little Medicine God shook her head, saying, “I want to stay with Brother Yang Tian and Brother Little White. I’m not going anywhere.”

The corners of the two elders’ mouths twitched. They felt an urge to drag the two of them out and beat them up. The Little Medicine God had never been this clingy before.

Yang Tian was pleased with her answer. He ruffled her hair and smiled, “I didn’t spoil you for nothing.”

The Great Elder and Third Elder’s faces darkened even more, veins bulging on their foreheads as if they were about to explode.

Clenching his fists, the Great Elder exchanged a glance with the Third Elder, and they both withdrew, apparently to discuss what to do.

“Are we really sending the Little Medicine God away?” Yuan Xia pinched the little girl’s delicate nose, her hazy, divine eyes showing reluctance.

“We’ll see when the time comes,” Yang Tian sighed. If they wanted to take the Little Medicine God away, they would surely disagree, and would probably keep Yang Tian here until she recovered her memories.

However, Yang Tian had other ideas. He entered the Ancestral Dragon Ring and consulted Yan Long. When the Great Elder mentioned the first ancestral land, Yan Long had sent him a message asking if he could enter too.

“Senior, what kind of place is that?” Yang Tian asked patiently. If it caught Yan Long’s attention, it must be extraordinary.

“Hmm, I’ve heard of the Medicine God Valley’s first ancestral land. It’s said to be an ancestral garden hiding great secrets,” Yan Long said slowly after a moment’s thought.

The Medicine God Valley was founded by the Medicine God, who was said to have been born from the ancestral garden. It was believed to be a medicinal garden that survived the Great Destruction.

According to ancient records, it was the garden of some supreme beings from that era, and most importantly, it contained a Life Ancient Well.

The origin of the Life Ancient Well was extremely ancient. It was said to be the source of the life planet. If the well shattered, the planet would become desolate. This had never been confirmed.

The great secret of the ancestral garden was this Life Ancient Well. It was said that the divine spring flowing from it could regenerate flesh and bone, and even allow one to comprehend the mysteries of heaven and earth.

There were many legends, but none were confirmed, as the matter was too ancient to trace.

The ancestral garden had a Life Ancient Well and was the first ancestral land of the Medicine God Valley, instantly sparking Yang Tian’s great interest.

Even if there was no Life Ancient Well, as one of the most formidable forces in the Great Wilderness, the Medicine God Valley’s first ancestral land was no small matter and worth a visit.

“I just wonder if the Medicine God Valley will agree,” Yang Tian muttered to himself. The quota for the first ancestral land was too small—only nine people.

Of course, he wasn’t in a hurry. The Medicine God Valley was more anxious than he was. The Little Medicine God was safe in the Ancestral Dragon Ring, and with the Xirang there, she would recover slowly.

Moreover, Yang Tian had obtained a map of the Lost Divine Realm, so there was hope of finding many treasures. But entering the Lost Divine Realm was not easy now.

Various major sects were seeking those with fragmentary maps. The realm was sealed off, and they had to wait for the right time to enter.

In the inner palace, the Great Elder and Third Elder sat expressionless. After discussing for a long time, the best solution was to let Yang Tian take the Little Medicine God into the first ancestral land.

First, Yang Tian was not weak and was no ordinary person; he could protect the little princess inside.

Second, which frustrated them greatly, the Little Medicine God simply couldn’t leave Yang Tian and Little White; she had to stay by their side.

Another point was that the little princess had deep feelings for Yang Tian and the others. If they harmed these humans, even if she recovered her memories, she might not forgive them.

“Great Elder, the ancestral garden is of great importance. It’s very inappropriate to let an outsider in,” the Third Elder sighed. Even he had never entered it, showing how secret it was.

“Yes, the ancestral garden is the birthplace of our Medicine God Valley. If anything goes wrong inside, our clan’s fortune might be cut off,” the Great Elder said helplessly.

“But the little princess came from the ancestral garden and is very likely to become our clan’s Medicine God. This is crucial for our clan’s heritage,” the Third Elder added.

“The nine clansmen entering the ancestral garden are the strongest of our younger generation. If the one who harmed the little princess is among them, we must be wary.”

“If the little princess awakens her memories inside, we can find out who plotted against her.” The Third Elder clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with killing intent.

“Letting that human enter to protect the little princess is a good idea, but this is not a decision we can make. I think we should awaken the Supreme Elder.”

Hearing this, the Third Elder’s expression changed slightly, then he nodded. Their figures then vanished from the place.
