Nationwide Development: Spend Billions in Advance to Bind the Empress

Chapter 442 Let Dad find a stepmother?

"This is the lifespan limit for humans in the Xuan Tian Realm. Otherwise, adding hundreds of thousands of years for you would be a piece of cake!" Bai Xian'er smiled and winked.

"Are you not sad now?"

Every world has a lifespan limit; this was a secret she learned after coming to the Underworld.

Like the original blue planet, its lifespan was only a little over a hundred years.

The limit of the Xuan Tian realm is 20,000 years of lifespan for the Great Emperor realm.

The Immortal Realm is even higher, capable of reaching five million years, comparable to an Immortal Emperor.

To break through this limitation, one must continue to grow stronger and overcome personal constraints, or live a second life.

This is a natural law, or rather, a special law formed after the Dunyi Continent went far away.

Even a rare treasure like the Book of Life and Death cannot exceed this limit when modified.

"Mmm!" Luo Hongxi hugged her happily: "Sister Xian'er, you're so kind!"

"It was nothing." Bai Xian'er could feel her sincerity and felt very happy.

After spending a few days together, she found that Luo Hongxi was the easiest to get along with, had no ulterior motives, and was very likable. She called her "sister" repeatedly, which made her very happy.

This is also why she invited Hongxi to the Underworld. While building a relationship, she also wanted to give her a connection to the Underworld so that she would have more say in the Mingxiao Dojo.

"By the way, Hongxi, I see your mother has passed away. Would you mind helping me find her?"

"This...this is acceptable?" Luo Hongxi's eyes, which had just calmed down, reddened again.

Her mother passed away when she was young, and all that accompanied her were a dozen or so koi-patterned bibs that she had worn since childhood.

"But you need to be mentally prepared," Bai Xian'er gently advised, fearing that she might lose control of her emotions.

"If she is to be reincarnated, this is the cycle of life, and it cannot be forced."

"Yes, Hongxi knows!" Luo Hongxi looked at her with a firm expression, suppressing the stinging sensation in her nose.

'Sigh...' Bai Xian'er could tell at a glance that this girl was about to burst into tears.

When she opened the resume of Luo Hongxi's mother, Lu Jinhong, she discovered that this person had already been reincarnated:

[Lu Jin Hong, a member of the Xuan Tian clan. She died of illness seventeen years ago during the Xuan Tian era and was reincarnated into a powerful family in the Xuan Tian mortal dynasty. She is 17 years old and her name is Lin Wanru.]

As the message popped up, a scene appeared on the Book of Life and Death: a lively young girl was sitting in a rattan chair in the courtyard, leisurely reading a book in her hands.

Luo Hongxi had another painting of her mother that her father had given her, which she treasured in her spatial ring and would take out to look at whenever she missed her.

Looking at the woman in the painting who bore a resemblance to her mother, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, and she murmured through trembling sobs:

"Mommy~, waaaaah~!"

Unable to suppress her grief any longer, she threw herself into Bai Xian'er's arms and burst into tears.

Bai Xian'er gently patted her back with a look of heartache in her eyes.

There's not much to say about this; we can only let her calm down on her own.

Even if she wanted to help, she was powerless to do so. The Book of Life and Death cannot alter the memories of those who are reincarnated, because those who are reincarnated have all drunk the Meng Po soup and forgotten their memories of their previous lives.

"Life is full of regrets, nine out of ten." Shen Yun shook his head as he looked at the projection.

He knew that Hongxi missed her mother very much, and that she had kept that ordinary koi fish bib perfectly, as if it were a precious treasure.

Besides, this girl is inherently kind and gentle, so it's understandable that she would feel sad upon seeing this scene.

But that's life; things can't always go as planned.

[Ding! Character Luo Hongxi detected to be extremely sad. Perfect Life Recharge Mode activated:]

[Soul Restoration: Special Price 128,888, directly restores the past life memories of the character Luo Hongxi's mother!]

"Uh..." Shen Yun twitched the corner of his mouth: 'This works?'

He doesn't even have that opportunity, but a role is easy to get as long as you have money!

'Everyone says I'm cheating, but I think you guys are the ones who're cheating.' Shen Yun thought for a moment and pressed the voice button:

'Hongxi, if you miss your mother, I can activate her memories of her past life.'

Upon hearing these words, Luo Hongxi seemed to forget how to cry, and suddenly looked up, staring intently into the void:

"Young Master?!"

Shen Yun smiled faintly. What can't a Krypton King do?

Just as he was about to feign ignorance, he saw Luo Hongxi shake her head and focus her gaze on the woman projected from the Book of Life and Death:

"Young Master, let's forget it. It's not fair to Lin Wanru..."

The young master can certainly do that, but she can't be too selfish.

Because doing so would undoubtedly hurt Lin Wanru.

Bai Xian'er, who was standing to the side, roughly guessed Shen Yun's plan and the intention behind Luo Hongxi's words.

'What a pitiful and lovely girl…' Bai Xian'er wiped away her tears, then suddenly her eyes lit up and she whispered:

“Hongxi, I saw from your uncle’s information that he has decided not to find a partner since your mother passed away and will live alone until the end. Why don’t you let your uncle try to get in touch with Lin Wanru? When the time is right, he can try to explain the reasons to Lin Wanru?”

Luo Hongxi was stunned.

Tell her to have her dad find a stepmother?!

After a moment's thought, she sighed softly:

"But if Lin Wanru finds out the result, she will inevitably be heartbroken and feel that my father doesn't love her..."

"That's the truth, but you can only know for sure after trying it," Bai Xian'er comforted her.

"Besides, you know how much your uncle misses your aunt, and this will also fulfill his wish. As for what happens afterward, let the two of them decide."

This is the best solution available now.

Luo Hongxi thought for a moment before nodding: "Please trouble you, young master, to inform my father."

"No big deal." Shen Yun directly purchased the special offer notification. As for activation, there was no rush; he'd spend the money first.

Notifying Luo Qinghe was simple; all he had to do was tell Qin Shitong to send her character to the Luo family.

After resolving Luo Hongxi's matter, Shen Yun shifted the focus to Tu Miaoling.

But the girl was sitting in the room, holding talismans and scriptures, her eyes wandering far away.

"What's wrong, Miaoling? Are you lost in thought?" Shen Yun asked curiously.

The sudden words startled Tu Miaoling so much that the book in her hand trembled: "Young Master has arrived?" Miaoling was simply lost in thought.

She nervously smoothed her hair behind her ear, but her slightly flushed cheeks betrayed her true feelings.

Shen Yun suddenly realized: "Look at me, I've been so busy these past few days that I forgot about the promise I made before."

'Young master, actually…' Tu Miaoling really wanted to explain that the young master had misunderstood, but she couldn't bring herself to say it, which made her even more shy.

Even the blush on her face became more noticeable.

"Haha, it's alright, there's nothing to be shy about." Shen Yun knew that it would be difficult for a young woman to say such a thing.

After activating the teleportation talisman and appearing in person, he took out the fun rope:

"Just consider it as a form of training."

This thing can enhance both parties' cultivation, so it's a good excuse to ease Miao Ling's nervousness.

When Tu Miaoling saw the familiar pink rope, her heart leaped into her throat.

'I think it's just that the young master wasn't satisfied and is making up an excuse!'

But the thought that the young master was willing to seek her out rather than Ling Qingxue and the others filled her heart with sweetness:

'If they knew, they'd be dying of jealousy!'

Thinking this way, she became much bolder, got up, and took Shen Yun's hand, leading him into the house.

"Young master, please follow Miaoling..."
