Shen Yanxiao felt like she was falling into an endless abyss. She was surrounded by nothing but darkness. At the end of the abyss, a hint of green light was glowing.
She didn't know how long she had been falling. At the moment she reached what seemed to be the end, her body slowly fell like a light feather.
A seed glittering with tender green light hung in front of her eyes.
Shen Yanxiao looked at the seed with a puzzled look, and an inexplicable intimacy attracted her towards it step-by-step.
She raised her hand, then her fingertips gently touched the seed; a warm stream immediately ran through her body, dispelling the coldness.
"Have you come?" A gentle female voice sounded.
Shen Yanxiao looked around but only saw the endless darkness surrounding her.
However, when she looked at the seed again, she suddenly found a light above it, which gradually formed the illusory image of a woman.
A gentle and moving woman was born to life. People could not help but want to get close to her smiling eyes.
The face of the woman was so familiar. Shen Yanxiao vaguely remembered that she had seen her on the picture scroll that Shen Feng had showed her.
Wen Ya, Shen Yanxiao's mother.
A gentle woman, half of whose blood belonged to the Elves. Just like her name, she was gentle and elegant.
Only, her current appearance was a little different from her looks on that picture scroll. The Wen Ya before Shen Yanxiao’s eyes had silver long hair that trailed over her shoulders just like fluffy seaweed; her pair of pale green eyes carried a smiling expression, and her skin was comparable to a white jade.
Elf!
That specific word immediately emerged in Shen Yanxiao’s mind.
The elf-looking Wen Ya stared at the doubtful Shen Yanxiao, her translucent hands holding the little seed.
"Mother..." Shen Yanxiao subconsciously called out. But as soon as this strange word came out from her mouth, she was slightly stunned.
Mother?
She was just a soul of another that crossed over to this world, not the original soul that the G.o.d gave to this body, but why?
Why did she have such a cordial feeling towards Wen Ya?
As if they were really blood-related, as though she were her real mother.
Everything looked so natural.
Wen Ya smiled; her smile was warm and touching, just like the lilies blooming in the gra.s.sland during spring.
"You’ve grown up; I am very happy. The me that exists in front of your eyes is just a glimpse of my original self that I left in your body, so that one day I could tell you about your own life."
Wen Ya's voice was very soothing. Shen Yanxiao listened to her quietly.
"I thought that you might not find this place in your life, but since you are here, it means that the elf blood in your body has awakened. There are some things I must tell you. I am a mixed race, between human and elf. I’m a child born and originally living in the Moon G.o.d Continent. But when I went to the Radiance Continent, I met your father, fell in love with him at first sight, and then I gave birth to you eventually."
"Little Xiao, there is a part of your body that belonged to the blood of the elves. I don't know if this is a good or a bad thing for you. Mixed-race children are being discriminated against on any continent. In fact, the elf blood in your body isn’t much and I thought perhaps, there may not be a day when your elf blood will be awakened. But now that you are here, your elf blood has already awakened. And from that moment, you are no longer an ordinary human being. In your heart, there is now a source of life that only the elves possess. The source of life is the origin of the elves, similar to the dou qi, magic, and spiritual force that human beings cultivate."
