Grandparents are so annoying.

Seven months have passed as quickly as a breeze.

Early in the morning, each of them—Li Na, Li Jing, and their kids—had started to prepare themselves.

They eat their early breakfast, take a bath, and dress up.

A drastic change has improved her kids' lives.

Strength, power, spiritual mana, elemental fragments, and more are soaring up from their bodies.

every single last bit of it.

They wore a long black robe adorned with red and gold edges, underneath sumptuous clothes. All of their power has been suppressed and concealed.

Then all of them head out, ready to leave.

Li Jing whistles really loudly. And then...

A large red-vermilion phoenix has landed in front of them!

"Wahhh!! Zhuque has gained another pound; isn't she? " In amazement, Li Qing Long has spoken.

"You bet she is...! She's been eating non-stop for the past few weeks! " Li Jing, the one responsible, responded to his son proudly.

"Well, you can't deny that... She became huge, Mom! " Li Xuan Hu speaks sarcastically.

"Well anyway, hop on!"

Li Jing leapt and then hopped on the Vermilion Phoenix.

From that moment, her kids followed and sat beside her.

Then Li Na finally comes out of their house.

After putting out an absolute barrier around their house, Li Na looked up and yelled at her daughter.

"Li Jing! Is everything ready?!"

"Yes, mom! Everything is ready! We're good to go! "

"Ok, then... Try to keep up at my pace! "

Li Na squatted down for a moment, then unleashed a large amount of her power on her feet, then leapt and flew off!

Li Qing Long, Li Baihu, and Li Xuan Hu were amazed at how their grandmother flew off and left them instantly.

After Li Jing smiled with delight at seeing her grandmother's power again, she immediately released a portion of her power and imbued it with the Vermilion Phoenix!

"Zhuque!!! Show what you got, baby! "

The Vermilion Phoenix screeches!

Then, with just a single flap of its wings,

They immediately flew up high!

"Woah!!!" Her kids got surprised and didn't expect the sudden movements.

Li Jing saw it and immediately put a barrier to them.

"Zhuque!! We have a lot of sky to cover up! Move fast as you can!!!"

Once again, the Vermilion Phoenix screeched, then flapped its wings and flew forward!

Moments later, they'd finally caught up.

Li Na turns to face her and speaks.

"Finally, you're here."

"Sorry, I forgot for a moment that I have to put a safeguard around my kids."

Li Jing dumbly smiled at her mother and began speaking politely.

"Never mind that... I forgot that I have something to tell you."

Li Jing twitched and became firm and serious.

"What is it, mother?"

"My friends are delighted to meet you and will make time to discuss your ridiculous plan."

"I can't thank you more than this, mother."

Li Jing kneels down on the Vermilion Phoenix and looks at her, then bows to her.

"...Don't thank me early."

"Eh?" Dumbfounded, Li Jing raised her head.

"You're going to meet your grandfather and grandmother as well." All of a sudden, Li Na's voice changes from calm to an awkward and anxious tone.

"Eh? They're coming as well?!!!" In shock, Li Jing shouted!

Long Jiang tries to collect and remember all the incidents that happened when Li Jing was still alive.

According to her memories, Li Jing had lived in such a harsh environment when she met her grandparents as a child.

Her grandfather was a human, while her grandmother was a pure-blooded High-Elf.

Despite interracial coexistence and having a child, the offspring of which is my mother, they never get along.

And they trained Li Jing all by themselves.

Li Jing never had a normal life when she was living with her grandparents.

However, thanks to that, Li Jing became powerful and peerless at a young age.

Li Jing's grandfather was known as a very powerful person throughout the country. Although he never admits it to himself, he has already attained the power of a deity and has finally gained his youth back.

By attaining such an achievement, Li Jing's grandmother, who also has attained the power of a deity, has become extremely jealous, due to the fact that Li Jing's grandfather is quite a womanizer.

Her grandfather was quite a man; handsome, ripped body, well mannered... In other words, Li Jing's grandfather is a gentleman who happens to be a womanizer.

While her grandmother was quite a beauty, with long silvered hair, smooth and soft skin, and a captivating voice... Her grandmother attracts more men than she ever wanted.

Due to the fact that they're both strong and have attained their youth and beauty back, they always argue about each of their own problems.

However, even though with all that, that's all of it. They quarrel as if they were just a normal couple.

In a moment of remembering all of Li Jing's memories,

Long Jiang, who is inside of Li Jing's body,

has become distressed.

"Why did they have to come, mother?"

"Well, when I was writing a letter to my friends, it came into my mind... that if you really wanted to succeed in creating a country, you'd likely need a lot of support. And by big support, I mean them."

"But, aren't you more than enough, mother?!!!" As Li Jing speaks, she becomes anxious and frightened.

While flying, Li Na looked at her and frowned.

"Are you kidding? Even though I am also at Deity level, I am no match for those hags' powers and experience. They're completely different levels for both knowledge and connections. "

"Haizz... I guess there's no escape from this. I completely didn't expect this situation. "

Li Jing sighs deeply as if all her excitement and soul are gone in one go.

"By the way, how's your mana core lately? At what level are you now? "

"I broke through in Heavenly Divine God stage 3."

"That's great... With one more push, you'll become a deity just like us. However, the way you cultivate yourself is quite different from any other form of cultivation. As if it's out of this world... but thanks to that, I attained this level because of your weird techniques. "

Li Jing didn't answer but awkwardly looked away from her mother.

"I'm sorry, mother, but I'm not even your daughter, which is why I've grown stronger than you think." She was having trouble figuring out how to properly answer her mother, as her thoughts went into trouble.

As' Li Jing', i am now freed from the ties that held me back from the life I wanted.

But...

All these years with my mother, she helped me a lot of things.

I'd spent a lot of time adjusting to and learning about this world's magic system.

What does Mana Core do? Elemental magic, spirits, and creation.

Honing my elemental magic and creation...

I've become so engrossed in the new abilities I have gained since coming to this world that I've dismissed the training where everything is considered I was best at before.

In the past, I had utilized most of my Ki pool to refine the simplest techniques.

However, in this world, my limitations don't exist.

That made me realize sometimes, should I keep pursuing magic and creation or—

Then, in the midst of her thoughts, Li Na communicates with Li Jing...

"Oi! Be ready to land; we're almost there. "

"Alright, mother."

Li Jing nods as she answers immediately, followed by her kids nodding as well.

As time goes by...

Moments later, they arrive...

Li Na halted for a moment.

By that, Li Jing also ordered her Vermilion Phoenix to stop.

They're 5 klicks away from the place they're going to visit.

Li Na speaks.

"Li Jing... is better if you let Zhuque transform into her pet size bird."

Li Jing just nodded and ordered the vermilion phoenix to land on the ground.

Li Na also follows and lands on the ground as well.

Li Jing and her children leap from the Vermilion Phoenix as they land on the ground.

Then..

"Zhuque, sorry about this but... bear with me, ok?"

Li Jing inhaled deeply then...

"I have to!"

Bursting out with a tremendous amount of power, Li Jing began to suppress Zhuque, the Vermilion Phoenix.

Concealing its power and its original form, Li Na imbued a lot of different types of ways to change Zhuque's appearance.

And so... Zhuque, the large and magnificent Red Vermilion Phoenix, has now become a small but cute little Oriole.

After compressing its size, Zhuque flew off and landed on Li Jing's right shoulder.

"Sorry to make you wait, Mother."

"No worries. Now, shall we get going? "

"Yes!"

Li Na once again leaps forward and runs fast ahead of them.

Although she didn't imbue herself with something else, but instead just pure agility, she was still fast for a normal person to attain.

However, Li Na made her realize that she had gone too far in her agility.

So she slowed down a bit.

Then Li Jing and her grandkids arrive.

She uses nothing but pure strength and agility; she adjusts her power for her kids not to get left behind. While her kids have imbued themselves with several ways to speed themselves up, they're still far from her mother and grandmother's, who only use pure strength and agility alone.

Enhancing the strength and agility and imbuing lightning and wind elements, Li Qing Long, Li Baihu, and Li Xuan Hu have managed to catch up.

"Are you guys OK?" Li Na asks while looking at her grandkids with worry.

"We're alright, Grandmother!"

The triplets respond at the same time without showing any signs of tiredness or distress.

However, Li Xuan Hu speaks softly and looks at her grandmother and mother.

"Mother, grandmother, how did you attain such talents like that?"

"What do you mean, my little Li Xuan Hu?" said by Li Jing herself, confused and wondering.

"I mean is, even though we're using different types of ways to keep up your speed, Grandmother and Mother are just using agility and strength alone. How could we attain that kind of talent? "

Li Na smiled just hearing her grandkid's curious voice.

"Little Li Xuan Hu. You can't just grasp everything without trying it for yourself. If you want to become like us, then don't rely on anything, but instead become a normal person like any other person. Train like a normal person... and enhance your inner strength and outer strength. "

Li Jing followed her mother's statement with such a playful tone of hers towards her kids.

"Hehe... Your grandmother is right. But still, you shouldn't let yourself get down. You're still young. so you don't have to worry about that so early. "

"She's right." She said, "just keep the pace of your training every day and you'll become like us in no time. And besides... considering at your age, you're probably way ahead of any kids at your age, maybe even ahead of a few adults out there. "

Li Na smiled blissfully and looked at her grandkids as she tried to cheer them up.

Li Qing Long, Li Xuan Hu, and Li Baihu giggled, smiled, and thanked their mother and grandmother's advice and opinions.

"Thank you grandmother, thank you mother!"

"Ah?! By the way, since none of you guys know anything about anything in the outside world, Here... wear this in the meantime. "

A pair of different masks that came from Li Na's dimensional space have been handed over to Li Jing and her grandkids.

Li Jing's mask has the design of a smiling face mask; the holes for the eyes and mouth were both smiling, making it creepy enough not to wear.

While she has that, her kids' mask has a different design. Li Qing Long was the angry one, while Li Baihu got the sad face, and Li Xuan Hu got the straight face.

All of them wear it without questioning Li Na's motives.

"Don't ever take it off, once we enter the city... got that?"

"We understand, mother!" Li Jing herself says so.

followed by her kids nodding to their grandmother.

Li Na didn't look at them but continued to move forward.

They finally arrived a few moments later!

Thousands of people keep coming through in front of a large golden gate adorned with silver edges!

Underneath the mask, all the kids of Li Jing were in awe of how magnificent that entrance was.

"So this is what a human place is!" Li Baihu's joy was so contagious that even with a mask on, anyone could tell!

On the other hand, Li Qing Long has gotten awe from various different races that keep coming in.

"There are a lot of monsters that I have never seen before! And they're walking on two legs! "

"!" Although Li Qing Long never said it out loud, Li Na and Li Jing were surprised at how ignorant Li Qing Long was!

And so Li Na tried to explain it to him calmly, even though she was a bit disturbed by it.

"Li Qing Long: It's not like that. They're not monsters. They're demi-humans. "

"Demi-humans... I see. So that's what they are! Thanks a lot, grandmother! "

Although Li Qing Long responds like that, his enthusiasm, along with his reply, doesn't feel convincing towards her grandmother, Li Na.

"This kid... does he really understand at all? I fear that he might wreak havoc in the city! I have to do something about this before something happens!" Li Na's thoughts were concerned and worried about her grandson's attitude and ignorance.

Then Li Na looks at Li Xuan Hu, who never expressed anything.

Or so she had thought...

Although Li Xuan Hu looked calm on the outside, he himself was quite enthusiastic about seeing the power of the people that kept showing up.

"They're strong! Not as strong as my mother and grandmother! But they are indeed strong. I'd like to fight them! Every one of them! I want them…!"

He smiled beneath his mask of excitement! As if his smile meant otherwise...

At that moment, his grandmother, Li Na, called him.

"Li Xuan Hu...! Come here."

"Hmm? What is it, Grandmother? " Li Xuan Hu immediately calms down and tries to collect himself, then responds to her grandmother and moves towards her.

Li Na leaned forward and whispered in Li Xuan Hu's ear.

"Can you keep an eye on your brothers, particularly Li Qing Long?"

"I understand, grandmother!" Li Xuan Hu nodded at her and firmly replied.

As minutes go by, all of them still aren't going inside of the city.

Li Jing is left wondering why.

So she asks.

"Mother... why aren't we entering yet?"

"Just wait... Your grandmother said that we'd meet them at the entrance. So we wait..."

"Is that so?"

Then, moments later, a fine and good-looking lady spoke behind Li Na's back.

"Would you look at that... you've finally achieved Deity status like us, Li Na..."

Li Na turned around, and so did Li Jing, who was looking away, got startled and looked!

And just like Li Jing's memories, a beauty with long silvered hair, long ears, blue eyes, smooth and soft white skin, with a captivating voice and smile, a truly peerless beauty!

Behind the beautiful lady was a handsome man, with a well-built body, short black hair, red eyes, a bit of tough and smooth brown skin, an alluring smile, and a fine attitude. A truly unforgettable charm!

"...And Hello, there... Our beautiful granddaughter." said by two lovely people.

"Grandmother, Grandfather!"
