Chapter 189 - 189 188


189: 188.


Yun Xia’s Background 189: 188.


Yun Xia’s Background After hearing Yun Xia’s story, Mo Jiuli finally understood her background.


As Yun Xia said, she was picked up as a baby in the mountains by her father and then raised with much love and care…


Her father’s killer, however, was the Crown Prince of Nanfeng Country!


A year ago, when the Crown Prince of Nanfeng Country went to the Demon Beast Forest of Fengyun Country for training, he happened to meet Yun Xia and was immediately captivated by her beauty…


He directly proposed to take Yun Xia as his concubine, but Yun Xia declined.


Afterwards, Yun Xia left in haste, thinking that the matter had passed…


But then, three months ago, after Old Daddy Yun returned from hunting, he fell into a coma.


Yun Xia invited someone to take a look, but no one could figure out what was going on…


When Yun Xia was at a loss for what to do, the Crown Prince of Nanfeng Country reappeared before her and threatened that as long as Yun Xia agreed to be his concubine, he would send someone to cure Old Daddy Yun.


How could a clever person like Yun Xia not understand the reason behind it?


As soon as she thought about it, she guessed that her father’s illness must be related to the Nanfeng Crown Prince.


However, she had no evidence, no strength, and no power, so she was powerless to reason with him.


Moreover, Yun Xia didn’t bother to deal with such people and went to the Alchemy Association with a try-it-out attitude…


Thanks to Mo Jiuli’s influence, Yun Xia successfully invited President Fu to come and treat her father.


At first, she worried that the Nanfeng Crown Prince would cause trouble again, but unexpectedly, she never saw the elusive prince again after returning.


After President Fu treated Old Daddy Yun, he left the Yun Family.


However, not long after he left, the Nanfeng Crown Prince, who had been missing for several days, reappeared…


Seeing Old Daddy Yun’s recovery, the prince’s face darkened terribly.


He tried to forcibly take Yun Xia away, but in the fight, Old Daddy Yun was captured by the Nanfeng Crown Prince while protecting Yun Xia…


He even threatened Yun Xia that if she didn’t agree to his demands within one day, she and Old Daddy Yun would be parted forever.


Yun Xia naturally didn’t want to, and at midnight, she sneaked into the inn to save her father, only to find that he had been beaten to the brink of death after being captured…


Seeing Yun Xia appear in black clothes at midnight, Old Daddy Yun knew she had fallen into their trap.


In desperation, he forced Yun Xia to leave, only to be killed by the Crown Prince of Nanfeng Country with one palm strike…


It was only after hearing Old Daddy Yun’s words that Yun Xia hurriedly escaped.


Her injuries were inflicted on her when she later went to the door to retrieve Old Daddy Yun’s body, and they insulted and beat her…


“Did they give you the corpse because you agreed to their demands…” Mo Jiuli wasn’t a fool, and she guessed a little from just listening.


“Hehe, yes!


If I don’t agree to his demands, my father’s corpse will still be warm, and I won’t be able to escape their grasp!


There are five old men beside him, their strength immeasurable, and I’m no match for them…” Yun Xia said bitterly.


In order to allow her father to rest in peace, she had no choice but to agree to their demands.


She had already decided that she would never give herself to her enemy, even if she couldn’t kill them, she would not continue to live in disgrace…


Mo Jiuli looked deeply at Yun Xia and realized a problem from her description: Yun Xia didn’t seem to know she was a Divine Beast!


If what Yun Xia said was true, she was picked up by Old Daddy Yun as a baby.


That meant she had been a baby when she took human form, which made Mo Jiuli wonder how it had happened in the first place?


Even Little Book couldn’t explain how it happened?


Now, Mo Jiuli didn’t know whether Yun Xia was truly unaware of her origin or was deliberately concealing it…


So, she didn’t know whether she should ask Yun Xia about her past or how to broach the subject…


“My face is very ugly, isn’t it!” Seeing Mo Jiuli staring at her face, Yun Xia said with a self-mocking smile.


“No.


Yun Xia, do you know about your past?


For example, have you ever noticed anything different about your body?” Mo Jiuli asked tactfully after thinking for a while.


At these words, Yun Xia lowered her head, speaking with a somewhat sad tone, “I don’t know.


Daddy said that when he found me, I was just a baby, and there was nothing around me…”
“Have you ever thought about finding your parents?” Mo Jiuli continued to ask.


“I never thought about it!


I think I’m living a good life…” Yun Xia still kept her head down as she spoke.


So, Mo Jiuli didn’t see the cold light that flashed across her eyes.


“Have you ever thought that maybe you’re not a human?” Mo Jiuli said with a slight smile.


Hearing this, Yun Xia still didn’t raise her head, but her voice carried a hint of laughter, “Miss Mo, you really have a sense of humor.


How could I possibly not be human!”
“Hehe, you can go to hell!”
With that, Yun Xia suddenly raised her head, and her dagger thrust directly at Mo Jiuli sitting across from her…


Mo Jiuli just smiled lightly, and before anyone could see how she moved, she was already behind Yun Xia…


“How did you find out?” Yun Xia’s expression changed, and she turned around and coldly asked Mo Jiuli.


“Are you talking about your background?


I found out the first time we met!” Mo Jiuli said indifferently.


“It’s impossible, you couldn’t have seen it!” Yun Xia said confidently.


“That’s right, I didn’t see it!


But my Contract Beast did!” Mo Jiuli admitted generously.


“What do you want?


I won’t form a contract with you!” Yun Xia said after a moment of silence.


She had always had a special fondness for Mo Jiuli and her daughter, and she had known of Mo Jiuli’s difference from the outset.


However, she never thought that Mo Jiuli would see through her identity the first time they met…


But she couldn’t bring herself to form a contract with a human…


“Don’t worry, I don’t have any intention of forming a contract with you!


I came to see you because I was indeed curious about you!” Mo Jiuli said candidly.


Yun Xia stared at Mo Jiuli for a long time before she retracted her killing intent and slowly said, “I was originally a man-eating flower that had cultivated for tens of thousands of years deep in the Demon Beast Forest.


During my Thunder Tribulation, I was discovered by other demonic beasts of the forest, and not only did I lose my memory after succeeding in taking human form, but I also turned back into a baby!


It was Old Daddy Yun who found me while hunting!


For a long time, I didn’t know about my past either.


It was only ten years ago that I accidentally discovered my special affinity for medicinal materials and even all plants.


Later, I learned alchemy, and my alchemy skills improved rapidly, but my cultivation speed has always been slow…


It wasn’t until three years ago that I completely recovered my memory and learned of my origin!


Perhaps because my Thunder Tribulation wasn’t successful back then, I’ve been unable to recover my original form and can only exist in human form.


Even though I now have Dark Purple strength, my combat power is still very low…


In short, there’s no difference between me and humans now!


I never thought I would be discovered by you!”
