Chapter 1152 90th Floor
After she had traveled for more than a month, Nangong Xiangling finally arrived at the Sky Cloud Realm, and she rushed back to Ouyang City in the southern region.
Nangong Xiangling did not return to the Ouyang Clan; instead, she brought her son to the Nangong Clan to meet his father. When she arrived at the clan, the guards informed her that Nangong Yuhai had been away for more than a month, and he still had not returned.
"Aunt." Nangong Xiangling immediately turned to look at Nangong Nichang and Qiao Lingzhi, who had just arrived. Both young women looked at the baby boy with strange gazes, especially since they already knew the baby's father's identity. "Didn't you meet my father?"
"Huh?" Her niece's question confused Nangong Xiangling. "What do you mean by that, Nichang? Where did your father go?"
Nangong Nichang approached Nangong Xiangling and rubbed the baby's head. "About a month and a half ago, my father went to the Starry Realm to pick up you and your child."
Nangong Xiangling was stunned for a moment before replying to her niece. "I left the Starry Realm about a month and a half ago, so I didn't meet my brother."
"You should try to contact my father and inform him that you've returned, as he will be confused and panicked due to his inability to find you." Nangong Nichang then asked her. "Can I carry my little brother?"
Nangong Xiangling's expression turned complicated when Nangong Nichang addressed her son as a little brother. "Nichang-"
"Before he left, my father already told me about his relationship with you, and he also told me that you were already pregnant with his child." Nangong Nichang then took the baby boy from Nangong Xiangling's hands. "What's his name, Aunt?"
"Nangong Xinghai." Nangong Xiangling then asked her. "Aren't you angry with me? I-"
"No." Nangong Nichang shook her head at her aunt. "At first, I was disappointed that you had such a relationship with my father, but I've heard a lot about the love triangle between you and my parents. Although they didn't say anything, I myself have long known that my mother is not a good person, and she became even worse after Huang Xiaoxian enslaved her. My father never loved my mother, and he married her because of my grandparents' compulsion. Instead, he always loved you, but he was forced to let you marry Uncle Jun."

After hearing that, Nangong Xiangling felt relieved. On her way home, she worries about her niece's reaction. However, her worries were unfounded because Nangong Nichang already knew everything, and she also did not object to their relationship. "Thank you."
"No need." Nangong Nichang then looked at Nangong Xiangling seriously. "Aunt, Uncle Jun loves you very much, and he went to the Starry Realm specifically to look for you. He is a good man, but you cheated on him with my father, and you two now have a son together. Therefore, I hope you visit him after his return and make sure to tell him the whole truth."
"I will." Nangong Xiangling then led them into the main hall. "How long will you two stay here?"
"I came here just to check whether my father has returned or not, but I didn't expect to meet you and my little brother. However, Lingzhi and I won't stay here for long, and we will return to the Northern Region tomorrow." Nangong Nichang's answer confused Nangong Xiangling, especially since that region was uninhabited in her memories. "Many things changed in this realm after my father sent you to the Starry Realm, and so many people live in that region now."
"I see." Nangong Xiangling answered with a soft sigh, especially since she had spent several months alone in the Starry Realm. "In that case, you can accompany my son first, and I will tidy up my room so he can rest comfortably."
After Nangong Xiangling left, Qiao Lingzhi approached Nangong Nichang, observing the baby boy. "If I look closely, his face is a bit similar to yours."
"Yes." Nangong Nichang gave a light nod as she teased the baby boy. "After all, his father is my father, so our faces definitely have some similarities."
"What do you think will happen if Uncle Jun finds out about their relationship with this baby?"
Nangong Nichang let out a heavy sigh before shaking her head. "Uncle Jun will be disappointed, but I think it's better than them deceiving him. I don't know what he'll do after he finds out the truth, but I know that the years-long relationship between the Nangong and Ouyang Clans will collapse after this incident. However, I don't want to think about that and let them take care of the matter by themselves, and I want to focus on myself in my cultivation and training in Yunlong Zhuzhai."
" Haha." Qiao Lingzhi laughed and teased her. "Have you fallen in love with Ling Yun now?"
"Aren't you the same as me?" Qiao Lingzhi immediately shut her mouth and was reluctant to admit Nangong Nichang's question. "Back then, you loved Big Brother Qiao Xiang, but he already has Big Sis Meng Qi."
"All right, you don't have to bring up the past anymore." Qiao Lingzhi replied with a bitter smile. "I do love Big Brother Qiao Xiang, but I realized that we can never be together, so I decided to give up and move on with my life. As for Ling Yun, I don't know if I'm in love with him yet, but I feel comfortable being by his side, even though he's his clone. Moreover, I have heard from others that he will be returning in a few months, and I will consider this once he gets back."

Ouyang Jun and Nangong Yuhai arrived at the Starry Realm, but they were disappointed, mainly because they couldn't find Nangong Xiangling there.
However, they discovered a letter that Nangong Xiangling had left for Hun Lingwang, which they promptly read. Fortunately, she didn't write about her son in the letter, so Ouyang Jun still didn't know about her relationship with Nangong Yuhai.
"Our trip here was a waste, Brother Jun."
Ouyang Jun nodded to Nangong Yuhai. "Since Xianglin has returned to our realm, we should go home now, and we can meet her there."
"How about we go home together?"
"All right."

"Finally!" Ling Yun exclaimed as he took the last golden key. "Nine golden keys are already in my hands, and the last one should be on the 100th floor. We've been here for almost nine months, and only ten floors are left."
"Are you that impatient to leave this tower?" Xuanyuan Xue'er inquired as she turned to face Ling Yun.
Xiao Xiao answered her first. "Our husband can't wait to see his kids, so don't be surprised at his impatience."
"We'll go to the Netherworld Realm first after this, right?" Mu Shu asked Ling Yun.
Ling Yun nodded in response. "I'll help Helena settle her old grudge with Vadin first, so the Netherworld Realm is our next stop. After that, we'll go to the Holy Land of Sword to talk to Jian Xian and Yun Liang."
"Haha." Yue Tu, who was lying on Ling Yun's head, laughed. "With your current strength, I'm sure you can defeat Vadin easily, and these upper realms will be completely safe from those demons. Moreover, you have so many powerful beasts by your side, and we can reach this floor faster because of them, so those demons aren't a big deal."
"Yeah."
Tian Yueling then asked. "Are we going to go straight to the supreme realm afterward?"
"Yes." Ling Yun then told them. "At first, I wanted to wait a few years before we went to the supreme realm, but I changed my mind, and we'll go straight there after I finish all the matters on hand. Let's enter the last safe zone, and we'll rest for a few days before we proceed to the 91st floor."
After Ling Yun and the others entered the last safe zone, Xing Jiangjun, Yun Xian, Shiwang Zhizhu, and Hua Xianren rushed back to the top of the tower.
However, Huang Lingzhu's decision to send the last six female beasts to Ling Yun still left many questions in the hearts of the four immortals, so they immediately went to see her. Unfortunately, the Time Lord did not want to explain to them the reasons behind her actions, and she kept everything to herself.

Ling Yun frowned as soon as they arrived at the last safe zone, especially after he saw Gu Changsheng and those male phoenixes. It was not difficult for him to find out their identities with the help of the system, but he did not expect that he would find Feng Ruxue and Feng Ling'er's fathers, Feng Tian and Feng Gaoxin.
Unlike Gu Changsheng, Feng Tian and Feng Gaoxin immediately recognized Ling Yun's bloodline, which caused them to exchange shocked glances. However, they were confused by his attitude, especially since his gaze clearly showed hostility toward them.
After all, they had never met each other before, so Feng Tian and Feng Gaoxin did not understand why Ling Yun was hostile toward them.
"Ling Yun."
"Yes." Ling Yun nodded to Ling Xi before opening the portal to the Yin-Yang Chamber, shocking Feng Tian and Feng Gaoxin.
