Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 564: Coming Clean

"What is it, sweetheart? Your brows are so knitted they could kill a fly. What did you see?" Mother Chu asked while watching her daughter.

It is true that a mother knows her child best. She was the only one who noticed the change in Chu Miao’s expression. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

"Eh! Is there something else?" Grandpa Chu asked curiously when he heard his daughter-in-law ask if something else was wrong.

"I noticed something else. Underground in the basement of a small mall, there are evolved zombies sitting in a circle with black threads connecting them. As if they are communicating or sharing power. I couldn’t determine which is which from this distance." Chu Miao decided to come clean.

After all, her family was her support and if they knew more, maybe they could come up with a solution.

"So, you can’t determine what those black threads are?" Chu Hao asked in surprise.

He always thought that his sister knew everything when it comes to cultivation and power.

"Hey, leave your sister be." Chu Mo slapped the back of his head.

"I was just asking. No need to turn violent." Chu Hao muttered while rubbing the spot his father had slapped him.

Chu Miao observed this interaction and the heaviness in her chest lifted.

Yes, she still had her family. What was she worried about? They will support her through thick and thin. Maybe it was time to tell them about the immortal realm.

Even though she had made hints before, she has never told them the details. So, she decided to tell them about it.

Thus, she spent the next half an hour telling her family about the Immortal Realm and how she and Ye Xuan had been the rulers of the Immortal Realm and how she had perished to protect it.

She also explained to her grandfather that the famous strongest Lord in the Wuxin continent was actually Ye Xuan who had forcefully reduced his power to gather her soul and also suppressed the rest of his power to descend to the lower realm to look for her reincarnation.

After finding her in her dying moment in the battlefield in ancient times where she was a general, she told them how he had taken his own life to enter the path of reincarnation so that he could reincarnate in the same space and time as her and find her again.

Now that they had recovered their memories, they planned to go back to the Immortal Realm once her mission of ending the apocalypse was over.

She also explained how she thought things weren’t simple because she had felt a trace of immortal qi in the crystal cores of the evolved zombies.

Her family listened in awe with their jaws nearly dropping to the ground.

"So, you are saying that the Chu Yue I raised in the ancient Wuxin Kingdom was the reincarnation of the Immortal Queen, and so are you, since you are the reincarnation of Chu Yue, right?" Grandpa Chu was even confused by his own question but he knew his granddaughter would understand.

"Yes. But in ancient times, I never awakened my memories. I only started awakening my memories when we entered the ancient battlefield. All our memories returned while we were in City C." Chu Miao explained.

"So, you are saying that once the apocalypse ends, you and that boyfriend of yours will go back to the immortal realm?" Chu Hao asked sourly.

"Yes. It has been tens of thousands of years since we left. Even though that might seem like a long time, in the Immortal Realm where people could easily live for a million years, that is nothing. But if we don’t show up in the next a thousand years, the immortals there will definitely become restless. Nancheng, the person Ah Xuan left in charge, hates official duties. He also told everyone that Ah Xuan was in seclusion and didn’t want to be disturbed. Since many people knew that he had lost his queen, they would not doubt it. But if he doesn’t show up for too long, then people will start to suspect his presence in the palace. So, we have to go back. Besides, cultivating in the Immortal Realm will be faster than here." Chu Miao explained to her sulking brother.

"So, you will have to leave after all." Mother Chu said with tears in her eyes.

Chu Miao couldn’t help but be surprised. She turned around and found that everyone there was wearing a cloak of sadness.

"Why are all of you looking so sad?" She couldn’t help but ask.

"Are you really that heartless little girl? Aren’t we even allowed to feel sad upon knowing that you are leaving?" Chu Hao slapped Chu Miao on the shoulder as if to punish her.

It was called a slap, but in fact, it was just a pat on the shoulder. Even though he was angry and sad, he would never hurt his sister, whether she was the Immortal Queen or just a normal pampered rich heiress.

It took Chu Miao a while to finally understand why her family was behaving like that.

"Why are you being so dramatic? We will go together when the time comes. Why act like we are going to be separated by life and death?" She asked in frustration.

"What?"

"What do you mean?"

Several people asked in surprise.

Chu Miao took a deep breath before speaking.

"Even though you are behind in cultivation, but if you could work harder and pass the tribulation transcendence, then I can bring you along in the Soul Ring.

We can only leave after reaching the Divine Realm. But I know that will take some time for you guys. However, once you survive the tribulation lightning of the tribulation transcendence stage, you can definitely ascend to the upper realm with us. Then become a Divine Realm expert there before we go to the Immortal Realm." Chu Miao continued to explain.

"You are saying you will take us once we pass the lightning tribulation of the tribulation transcendence stage. Can’t you take us with you before that if you are just going to take us using the Soul Ring?" Chu Hao asked the question that the others were wondering about.

"I can, but the tribulation lightning of the lower realm cannot compare to that of the upper realm. The lightning of the upper realm is fiercer because the laws of the heavenly dao there are more strict. Here, the heavenly dao is basically asleep and the tribulation lightning faced is only a fraction of those in the upper realm or the Immortal Realm face when they advance. So, do you want to undergo lightning tribulation here or in the upper realm?" Chu Miao raised her eyebrows as she said this, causing Chu Hao to shudder.

"Let me into the Soul Ring to cultivate. I have to advance here. I don’t want to turn into ashes from lightning tribulation as soon as I ascend. That is unacceptable." Chu Hao said dramatically.

"We will help you clear the city then go into seclusion. We cannot make things difficult for you and we will not become your weakness or shame once you go back to the Immortal Realm. As the queen, having family members who cannot be brought out because of their low cultivation will embarrass you. We won’t do that." Father Chu said solemnly and everyone else nodded.

They never knew that there was a higher realm apart from where they were. Now that they were aware, they would cultivate more diligently.

"That’s true. Sweetheart. If you have ways to improve my cultivation speed please help. I am the only one dragging you down. I just became a golden core and it’s not even stable yet. Others are about to advance to the nascent soul. I don’t want to become a burden." Mother Chu said sadly. She was indeed the only person who had been in the foundation establishment realm the longest.

"Don’t worry, I will find a way for you." Chu Miao reassured her mother with a smile.

There were many ways to improve the physique of cultivators. She could use one of those low grade techniques and her mother would improve significantly.

"Okay, it’s decided then. Now, how do we deal with those zombies? And Bunny, why did you mention the immortal qi in the crystal cores? Are you suspecting something?" Grandpa Chu brought the topic back to eliminating zombies.
