Chapter 589: Chapter 598: Worst case, we all die together, what’s there to fear?
These words reverberated in Bai Zhi’s ears and jolted her suddenly.
It turned out that her grandfather had once sacrificed his life for her.
Moving back in ti, she saw Bai Dan snatch the Jade Pendant from Nan Xi with Ye Xiu, who then fiercely slapped Bai Da and divorced him.
Only after that did Bai Dan take her straight into the mountains.
Then Bai ng sacrificed his cultivation, using the Jade Pendant to comnce the spiritual ceremony.
In the end, her and her grandfather’s souls began to drift, and Bai ng aged significantly.
She saw that her soul, along with her grandfather’s, didn’t get reborn; instead, they drifted into a fissure and then there was her life in the modern world.
Bai Zhi’s eyes were sore; she thought she would cry, but she didn’t.
Apparently, her soul was too light to shed tears.
It turned out that the thought she once considered impossible was indeed true.
She was the original owner; she was Bai Zhi.
She just didn’t know where things had gone wrong, so she ended up in the modern era, and her grandfather’s mory was gone.
She really was Bai Zhi.
She had been brought back by her grandfather and the Ancestor, who sacrificed everything, just to give her a chance to start over.
But she still ended up ssing things up…
She was really too foolish, or perhaps she wasn’t strong enough.
She couldn’t give up, she absolutely couldn’t.
Her grandfather and the Ancestor had given up everything to bring her back. How could she possibly give up now?
Everything from the past was over, and now she was dealing with rely a minor injury. How could she give up?
…
Bai ng placed the two pieces of the Jade Pendant together, and they incessantly absorbed Bai Zhi’s blood while nurturing her once again.
Once they were ho, Bai ng didn’t even pause; he took Bai Zhi into the mountain, while Bai Dan went straight to the Special Action Team, taking Moh Li with him.
He told them to keep it a secret and to say they were investigating the Ou Family.
Bai Dan drove the car incredibly fast, causing Moh Li’s heart to skip a beat. He had been feeling extrely anxious, as if he was about to lose sothing very important.
“Is Grandpa talking about… Bai Zhi?”
Bai Dan turned his head so abruptly he almost hit a tree.
“Xingxing will be alright, but, Moh Li, I need your help. I don’t know what to do or what it will cost. Are you willing?”
Bai Dan didn’t want to pressure Moh Li, but in his selfishness, he had already dragged him along, and perhaps he might press him further.
Because to save Xingxing, he was willing to pay any price.
“Of course, I’m willing.”
Bai Zhi was directly placed by Bai ng in that cave, with the two Jade Pendants set between the two stone doors. The doors opened, and upon retrieving the Jade Pendants, Bai Zhi was taken into another room.
Here, the mist swirled around.
It was also close to the dragon vein, and this place was filled with stone rankings, and the true ancestral shrine of the Bai Family was in the heart.
Bai ng placed Bai Zhi on the Cold Jade, then knelt down himself.
“Bai Family’s ancestors, I am the 187th heir, Bai ng.
Now, bringing the 188th heir, Bai Zhi, to this place,
I hope you could lend your strength to Bai ng, to pull back the heir of the Bai Family, and offer the Bai Family a glimr of hope.
She has been through turmoil in her two lifetis and has never hard anyone. Surely, not every heir of the Bai Family is dood to a bad end? We have been guardians for so many years; surely you can give us a little hope?”
By the end, Bai ng was more than just angry.
Ready to start cursing?
“I did use the Forbidden Technique, but wasn’t it all for our Bai Family, for our heir? Are you saying you don’t need an heir anymore, or do you think it doesn’t matter if the Bai Family ceases to exist? If that’s the case, then don’t bother helping.”
After Bai ng finished speaking, those ancestral tablets started moving, flying straight toward him and bombarding him.
“What’s wrong with what I said? The heir is gone anyway, and it’s only a matter of ti before others discover this place. So already know about the Jade Pendant. If we are to die, then let’s die together. I’m not afraid.
Whether you help or not is up to you.”
Bai ng threw down an ultimatum, not caring if the generations of guardianship the Bai Family had would turn to dust.
Of course, it was a threat, as he couldn’t possibly let anything happen to Bai Zhi.
Bai Zhi was not easily brought back by him and Bai Dan. If she was taken away again, would he have any face left?
Plus, his granddaughter’s cooking tasted good. He was happy, and she would make him various things, even though they were ugly.
The ancestral tablets flew back to their places, and soon, wisps of mist began appearing around Bai Zhi.
They had agreed. Very good, very good.
Being guardians of the Bai Family was not without its perks; at the very least, there was considerable rit accumulated. Otherwise, Bai Zhi wouldn’t have been able to be reborn.
Now, what he needed was the assistance of his ancestors.
Only by rging the two pieces of the Jade Pendant could Bai Zhi be brought back, but it required Moh Li’s willing guardianship.
If that didn’t work, then they would use their Bai Family’s guardianship rits to bring her back, no matter what.
“Ancestor, you look really bad when you’re getting hit.”
Just then, Bai Zhi slowly opened her eyes, feeling extrely cold.
It was needless to say how cold the area beneath her body was.
But she saw the Ancestor threatening the other ancestors.
For a mont, she felt it was all so fantastical; she had actually seen ancestral tablets hitting soone. Her ancestors… weren’t lingering spirits, were they… cough cough cough…
The next mont, the ancestral tablets moved toward her.
Bai Zhi’s face went stiff.
“I didn’t an to think that; I was just curious…”
Bai Zhi imdiately backed down, but it was really scary.
“It’s good that you’re awake. Your blood is nearly drained. It’s because you have a calamity in your fate…”
Before Bai ng could finish, Bai Zhi shook her head.
“I know what you and Grandpa have sacrificed to save .”
All her mories had returned, from both her past life and now.
In her previous life, she sought Bai Da’s acknowledgnt, even a sliver. She had the extre ntality that if she couldn’t make them love her, then she’d make them hate her, which led her to a dead end.
In the past life, what Nan Xi did to open the spatial gate was due to Bai Zhi being pushed, so her blood activated the Jade Pendant, and it was ultimately Nan Xi who profited from it.
Latter on, when she was captured, Bai Da didn’t hesitate to push Bai Zhi out.
So, it was Bai Zhi who was interrogated, Bai Zhi who was bullied.
Released, she had already broken down. She wanted to fight with Nan Xi, stooping to all sorts of petty provocations, until Bai Yu… did what he did to her.
Bai Zhi thought that maybe this really was the best outco. If her soul hadn’t gone to the modern world to live another life, she wouldn’t have the mindset she had now.
She would probably have sought revenge and beco even more twisted. But now…
She had let go of it all.
“Ancestor, you weren’t wrong in what you did. I got a second chance sowhere else, let go of a lot, and otherwise, it might have been another tragedy.”
