What kind of ghost are parents?
“Qiuqiu, how long have you been here?
It seems that you were just born!” Mo Jiuli asked curiously.
“Master, I was just born!
Master, I’m very powerful, right?” Qiuqiu said with a proud air.
“Alright!
You’re very powerful!
Qiuqiu, how come you’re alone just after being born?
Where are your parents?” Mo Jiuli asked, looking down at Qiuqiu.
“Master, what the hell are parents?
I’ve always been alone!
There’s only one of me in this world…” Qiuqiu looked at Mo Jiuli with confusion.
In its inherited memories, there was no mention of what parents were!
Mo Jiuli was dumbstruck…
Well, it seemed that this little guy’s origin was not that simple.
No wonder it had water and wood attributes…
“Parents are the ones who gave birth to you…
beast…”
…
After making a contract with Qiuqiu, Mo Jiuli didn’t stay long, as she was worried about Baobao and the others.
So, she and Qiuqiu chatted and walked towards the direction where Baobao and the others were…
Listening to the intermittent voices of the woman and the beast, and the gradually fading silhouette at the bottom of the lake, Granny Ai’s eyelids twitched slightly, but she didn’t open her eyes.
A smile hung at the corner of her lips, yet it was tinged with helplessness…
After a long time, Granny Ai sighed softly, “It was born unexpectedly at this time!
It seems everything is meant to be!
This little girl’s path might be difficult in the future, but I hope she can maintain her original intention and persevere until the end…”
As her words fell, Granny Ai’s body emitted a gentle white light, which slowly illuminated the entire blue ice chamber.
Then it faded away.
Her face, which had previously maintained its charm without a trace of age, had suddenly become decades older with the disappearance of the white light…
Granny Ai, who had just had a head full of black hair and tight skin, had already become an old person in her twilight years.
Her facial skin had become incredibly wrinkled, looking just like a naturally aging person who didn’t know cultivation…
Looking at the brightened ice chamber, Granny Ai whispered, “Child, I can only try my best to buy you some time!
I hope we’ll be able to see each other again someday…”
After speaking, Granny Ai closed her eyes and her body was wrapped in a layer of blue ice and snow…
When Mo Jiuli arrived with Qiuqiu in front of Baobao and the others, they were all gathered together helping Baobao sort out the poisonous herbs they had collected.
It was Lin Yue who noticed Mo Jiuli’s presence first…
“Master, you’re back?
Are you okay?” Lin Yue asked worriedly.
“I’m fine, see, I’m back!” Mo Jiuli smiled and said.
“Mom, you’re back!
Why didn’t you take Baobao with you!” Baobao immediately put down what she was holding and pounced into Mo Jiuli’s arms.
But just as she approached Mo Jiuli, she was blocked by a blue bubble…
Seeing this, Mo Jiuli directly handed Qiuqiu to Lin Yue, picked up Baobao, and kissed her little face affectionately, “Mom was busy just now!
That’s why I didn’t take Baobao with me.
But now I’m back!
Did Baobao have any gains?”
“Hmph, Mother you always change the subject!
Mother, what is that ball?” Baobao rubbed against Mo Jiuli’s arms, smelling the faint scent on Mo Jiuli’s body, and finally felt at ease, so she looked at the ball in Lin Yue’s arms and asked.
“Let’s go.
We’ll talk while walking…” Mo Jiuli said, glancing at the others.
The others nodded, and the three Mo Family ancestors helped Baobao gather the medicinal materials.
They followed the original path out of Wudu Forest.
Mo Jiuli briefly explained the process of the Contract Ball…
As for the matters concerning Granny Suxi and Granny Ai, she planned to find a separate time to ask the several Elders of the Mo Family after going back, believing that they should know something about it…
They returned at a very fast speed, just in time for the early morning of the next day to arrive at the General’s Mansion.
Mo Jiuqi had also been awake the whole night, constantly checking her Sound Transmission Stone, waiting for news from Xuetian City…
Although she didn’t know whether that woman was Mo Jiuli or not, she wouldn’t let go of anyone who dared to compete with her for the position of Princess Consort.
Seeing the Crown Prince’s attitude today, she knew that he had taken a liking to that woman…
So, she must get rid of that woman before she appears again!
Only then would the Crown Prince give up that idea and marry her as his consort…
At first, she was worried that the four Mo Family Elders might help Mo Jiuli.
Later, she sent her confidante to find out that all four Mo Family Elders were at the residence, which made her feel relieved…
Moreover, she learned from her mother that after her Elder Uncle saw the letter and the jade pendant, he hurried out.
However, he never left the Mo Residence after returning, but anxiously waited for something instead…
She knew that her plan had succeeded!
That woman was indeed related to the Mo Family.
Even if she wasn’t Mo Jiuli, she must be someone related to Mo Jiuli, otherwise, she would never agree to their request…
As for the man from Xuetian City, not only was he handsome, but his identity also seemed mysterious.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have sent herself to him.
However, a mysterious identity probably meant he was just a young master from some aristocratic family.
How could he be compared with her current Crown Prince Brother Luoxi…
One day, she, Mo Jiuqi, would become the Empress Mother of the Fengyun Empire, a woman entitled to Motherly Rule!
Only that position would be worthy of her…
“Miss, Miss!
There’s still no news.
The Patriarch and the third and fourth masters are in the front hall, looking very anxious!” A maid walked in and told Mo Jiuqi at this moment.
“Alright, I got it!
Keep an eye on the Patriarch and them, and tell me immediately if anything happens!” Mo Jiuqi responded.
Although she was puzzled in her heart as to why there had been no news from Xuetian City overnight, she thought of Mo Jiuli’s strength at the inn and thought that perhaps the people from Xuetian City had encountered some problems in Wudu Forest, so they hadn’t caught the woman yet…
What she could never imagine was that Mo Jiuli and the others had quietly returned to the General’s Mansion, and had already been taken to the Forbidden Land by the Mo Family Ancestor, Mo Chun.
In order not to arouse suspicion from the rest, Mo Jiuli did not even let the other two old men tell the truth…
Mo Chenfeng and the others saw the two Ancestors return and rejoiced, but when they looked back and didn’t see Mo Jiuli, they became alarmed: “Ancestors, where is Jiuli?”
Mo Chenluo and Mo Chenyun also looked worriedly at the two old men.
The two old men didn’t have the heart to see the worried looks on their faces but had to speak according to Mo Jiuli’s instructions: “We didn’t go into Wudu Forest but waited outside.
Before Miss Mo went in, she told us to return to the General’s Mansion before dawn, regardless of whether they came out or not, to avoid any trouble!”
“Then, aren’t they in danger if they haven’t come back yet for so long?
No, I’m going to find her.
I can’t let Jiuli have another accident!” Mo Chenluo said anxiously upon hearing this.
