Chapter 332 The Lure of the Child, Successful
The Goddess of Childbirth's expression changed drastically upon hearing the telepathic message from the Eternal Mother.

He knew exactly what the Eternal Mother meant by "exposure." The boy and girl in his arms suddenly flew out, sealing off the entire temple. The Goddess of Childbirth then began to beckon the Eternal Mother into the temple.

Before the two had even stood still, the Goddess of Childbirth had already asked impatiently:
"Why do you say that, Wu Sheng?"

Mayflies flap their wings and, without being born, manifest human form.

He did not answer directly, but instead asked a question in return:
"Did you inflict 'birth punishment' on this group of untouchables? And they even escaped?"

Song Sheng's expression turned solemn. Although he and Wu Sheng were cooperating, they did not interfere in each other's affairs. In fact, Wu Sheng Lao Mu was unaware of his relationship with the Western Sea Vein.

Even though the Eternal Mother has descended upon Emerald Valley New City, her divine sense is actually limited to the temple, and she has no way of knowing the situation in the new city.

Therefore, in theory, Wusheng could not possibly know about the affairs of the people in Tangjia Village.

Therefore, upon hearing Wusheng's words, His heart instinctively skipped a beat.

Now that things have come to this, He is no longer willing to beat around the bush; that lowly person from Tangjia Village must be killed as soon as possible.

So He nodded and readily admitted it, then immediately asked:

How did Wusheng learn of this?

Upon hearing this, Wusheng's face showed a hint of melancholy, and he complained:

“You were too careless. This group of people has already reached the outskirts of Zhenhai City. If it weren’t for the believers and their masters whom I secretly had encountered them and hiding them, they would have been exposed long ago.”

When the Goddess of Childbirth heard what the Eternal Mother said, she frowned slightly.

"Do your followers possess the Boundary Treasure?"

These words, seemingly directed at Jiebao, actually carried a hint of doubt. In Wusheng's understanding, it was unlikely that he could gather Nascent Soul believers with Jiebao's possession so quickly.

Although the delivery was urgent, they remained vigilant.

Wusheng, unperturbed, began to explain again.

"It is not my believer who possesses the World Treasure. My believer is merely a Foundation Establishment cultivator nearing the end of his lifespan. The World Treasure belongs to his master."

This master is a Golden Core cultivator nearing the end of his lifespan, and he is also my target.

"Calling it a realm treasure isn't entirely accurate; it's more like a fragment of one. Even capturing a few mortals would be quite a challenge. They've only led them a dozen miles, and their realm power is already dissipating and on the verge of collapse. They've stopped now, and you should be able to pinpoint the location of those lowly people in a little while."

Hearing what the Eternal Mother said, the Goddess of Childbirth's doubts dissipated considerably, but she still asked with a hint of doubt:
"Why does this Golden Elixir require those lowly people?"

The Eternal Mother showed a hint of impatience, but still patiently replied:

"This Golden Core cultivator's ancestors included a True Monarch, but the family has fallen on hard times. The person leading the lowly commoner should be a female cultivator named Tommy. She showed the disciple token of the Zhu family of the Seven Star Chamber of Commerce. This Golden Core cultivator's family head wanted to climb the social ladder through the Seven Star Chamber of Commerce, which is why he agreed to help. However, he overestimated his own abilities."

At this point, the Goddess of Childbirth had essentially confirmed the truth of the matter. She bowed deeply to the Eternal Mother and expressed her gratitude:
"Thank you for your help, Wusheng. I'm looking for these people right now."

The Eternal Mother nodded slightly, her impatient expression softening somewhat.

“I originally planned to manipulate the believers to take them down, but that master is a Golden Core cultivator after all, and I was afraid that something else might go wrong, so I rushed to inform you.”

Upon hearing this, the Goddess of Childbirth was filled with mixed emotions.

Compared to the fervor of the Eternal Mother, my earlier doubts seemed somewhat embarrassing.

It's right to be cautious, but we can't ruin their friendship. Besides, what reason would the Eternal Mother have to harm us? The two of them are meant to complement each other.

Just as he was about to thank the Eternal Mother again, he suddenly felt a jolt in his mind.

Through the life star, He indeed sensed the presence of those lowly people once again.

Although it seemed vague and uncertain, combined with what the Eternal Mother had just said, the Goddess of Childbirth instantly made a judgment: this should be a sign that the fragment of the Golden Core Master's World Treasure was about to collapse.

Without even bothering to greet the Eternal Mother, the Goddess of Childbirth calmed her mind and began searching for the villagers.

A moment later, the location was locked.

Just as the Eternal Mother had said, this group of people were now located a dozen miles away from the valley they had just left.

This discovery delighted the Goddess of Childbirth, but in the next instant, her expression changed slightly again, because in her perception, the aura of that group of people had disappeared once more.

The Eternal Mother spoke up at the opportune moment:
"That Golden Core cultivator fed the World Treasure fragment with his own essence and blood, temporarily stabilizing the World Treasure."

The Goddess of Childbirth nodded knowingly. Just now, through the villagers' perspective, she had caught a glimpse of the Golden Core cultivator, the female cultivator sitting on the round stone, and the Foundation Establishment believer of the Eternal Mother.

After a moment's hesitation, he took out the lotus petal.

To ensure everything went smoothly, He planned to contact Luo Xuan and ask him to take action to prevent any further trouble.

But before that, we need to hide the Eternal Mother. He doesn't want the two to come into contact, as it would be bad for both of them.

The Eternal Mother looked puzzled when she heard the suggestion from the Goddess of Childbirth, but agreed without hesitation.

He then stepped out and entered the inner hall of the temple, concealing his aura.

Seeing this, the Goddess of Childbirth did not delay any longer and quickly contacted Luo Xuan.

The part of Luo Xuan's primordial spirit that had destroyed the traces of the valley had just taken a detour to avoid Jin Chuan and the others, preparing to return to the Western Sea Realm. Upon hearing the communication from the Goddess of Childbirth, his expression changed.

He never expected that this group of lowly people would be hiding just a dozen miles away from the Valley of Infant Corpses.

At this moment, Jin Chuan and the others will arrive at the Valley of Infant Corpses in just half an hour. If I turn back, I will inevitably run into Jin Chuan and the others, and once I get close, I will definitely be noticed.

It was too late to go to that mountain stream to silence them.

What made him even more gloomy was that the valley had just been destroyed to cover up the crime, and Jin Chuan and his men would definitely be investigating the surrounding area. Within just a few miles, nothing could escape their detection.

Moreover, according to the Goddess of Childbirth, the treasure that the other party was using to impersonate a villager was still very unstable. Once the villagers' aura was revealed when Jin Chuan and the others investigated, then this matter could no longer be concealed.

This deduction instantly darkened Luo Xuan's expression.

So he quickly told the Goddess of Childbirth about the Valley of Infant Corpses and the imminent arrival of the Four Veins Guardians there.

The Goddess of Childbirth's initial good mood at finding the lowly commoner vanished instantly.

He hadn't expected so many things to happen in just over an hour.

With the combined efforts of the Four Meridians Exploration, Deng Jiuyou, and all the forces at the Nascent Soul stage, what about the Nascent Soul stage?
The moment He heard it, He had the urge to run away.

Luo Xuan seemed to know what the Goddess of Childbirth was thinking, and directly exposed her thoughts:
“Once this matter is exposed, the Great Venerable will surely investigate when he returns. I may not be in any danger, but you will definitely not escape the Great Venerable’s capture.”

The Goddess of Childbirth felt a chill in her heart upon hearing Luo Xuan's words. With so many traces in the five new cities, she truly could not completely conceal or hide them away.

Just as He hesitated, Luo Xuan spoke again:

"The only way now is for you to forcefully descend and use your full strength to kill all the villagers and that female cultivator in one blow. After you're done, immediately withdraw and I'll buy you some time."

The Goddess of Childbirth nodded solemnly and agreed.

This is indeed the most appropriate method at present. With Luo Xuan's help, I only need three breaths at most to escape.

After severing her connection with Luo Xuan, the Goddess of Childbirth found the Eternal Mother. Unable to wait for the villagers to reveal their presence again, she forcibly descended upon them.

No one knows how long the opponent's treasure can hold out this time. It would be even more dangerous to make a move when the garrison commander and others arrive at the Infant Corpse Valley and attack under the noses of a group of Nascent Soul cultivators.

Therefore, He prepared to give a wisp of His incarnation anchor to the Eternal Mother.

The Eternal Mother, through her destiny star, anchored this incarnation into the mind of the Foundation Establishment believer.

In this way, He can descend now and destroy the people in the mountain stream, which would be less risky.

When the Eternal Mother heard the Goddess of Childbirth's plea, a hint of hesitation appeared on her face.

Especially after hearing that the four guardians of the valley were about to arrive at the valley more than ten miles away, they directly refused.

The Goddess of Childbirth was extremely anxious, but she knew that it was normal for the Eternal Mother to refuse.

If it were Him, He wouldn't help the Eternal Mother take such a risk.

"If this matter succeeds, I am willing to offer Wan Ying as a token of my gratitude for Wu Sheng's help."

The Eternal Mother remained silent, and seeing this, the Goddess of Childbirth gritted her teeth and spoke again:
"Even with the addition of Wan Ying, it's not as dangerous as you might imagine. I won't hide it from you now, Luo Xuan of the Western Sea Vein has a partnership with me, and he will help us buy some time later."

The Eternal Mother's expression turned solemn, and she countered with a question:
"you sure?!"

The Goddess of Childbirth did not answer directly. Instead, she made a hand seal and conjured a contract in mid-air, writing down all the details in the contract. Finally, she added: "If this is a lie, the Venerable One shall execute her."

The Eternal Mother's expression shifted, as if she had finally made up her mind, and she replied firmly:
"Alright! I agree! But first, I need to confirm that you have 20,000 infants!"

The Goddess of Childbirth was overjoyed and first condensed an avatar anchor point to give to the Eternal Mother.

Then, with a flick of her sleeve, the incense smoke outside the temple dissipated, revealing the entire view of the Emerald Valley New City to the Eternal Mother.

Inside the low-lying houses, couples lived like livestock, their lives consumed by the lack of sunlight as they conceived their babies.

In each area, there is a cultivator stationed there. When the number of babies born in the area reaches one hundred, these cultivators collect them and then send them to a separate courtyard not far from the temple.

The Eternal Mother sensed the aura of the boundary force within the separate courtyard.

Moreover, these infants weren't newborns; they were all three-year-olds.

The three-year-old infant is the most beloved follower of the Food Venerable lineage.

A little older consciousness is complex and mixed, a little younger consciousness is not yet formed, and at this moment, consciousness is pure and innocent, which is just right.

However, induced childbirth at the age of three is extremely taxing on the couple, consuming more of their lifespan. Generally, one child consumes five years of each parent's lifespan.

The Old Mother of No Birth's eyes lit up with joy, clearly satisfied with the baby's quality.

The Goddess of Childbirth smiled happily upon seeing this.

Both of them silently recited the following sentence in their hearts:
"It's done!"
