Xiao Jiu’s pain finally alleviated a lot. At this mont, Bai Zhi almost confird that the bell was the thing that had prevented Xiao Jiu from transforming all these years.
But did Bai Wei know about this after all?
Xiao Jiu depended on her so much, loved her as her mother, yet in the end, it was her mother who watched her suffer these pains with open eyes.
"So painful, so painful..." Xiao Jiu curled up, exceptionally pained.
"It’s okay now, it’s okay. Be good."
Bai Zhi gently patted her back.
Hearing Bai Zhi’s voice was like finding a sense of security. Xiao Jiu stopped struggling and fell into a deep sleep.
Bai Zhi looked at the palace not far outside the barrier, where sothing seed to be happening.
"Xingxing."
Moh Li appeared behind Bai Zhi, gently calling her na. Just a mont ago, Xingxing seed very sad, as if she could drift away with the wind at any ti.
His heart was in disarray, and he quickly called out to Xingxing.
"Tell , who is it? Who’s telling the truth? Who’s lying?"
Bai Zhi was already a little unclear about who was telling the truth and who was lying.
It seed like everyone was telling the truth, yet it also seed like everyone was lying.
"Half true, half false, perhaps."
Moh Li looked at the palace, initially thinking Bai Wei had betrayed the Bai Family, clearly harboring ill intentions.
But upon eting her, they realized she was pitiful; she plotted against the Demon King only to save her daughter Xiao Jiu. The Demon King was scum, so naturally, she hated him.
She seed to be a pitiful person after all.
Later, they t Xiao Jiu, saw the bell, and learned about the Empress Dowager.
So who was truly at fault here?
"The Demon King asked us to leave, to save Li Mu."
Moh Li looked at Bai Zhi and revealed the truth he had discovered.
"Bai Wei said she didn’t betray the Bai Family, just for Xiao Jiu."
"Bai Wei also said the bell was given to Xiao Jiu by the Empress Dowager." Bai Zhi looked at Xiao Jiu not far away.
If things were truly as she suspected, then Bai Wei didn’t deserve to be a mother.
"I’ve found out that so little demons said that the original Empress Dowager was also a half-demon but later beca a Great Demon."
Bai Zhi’s gaze turned to Xiao Jiu. Xiao Jiu’s body was supposed to be an Innate Pure Body, making her cultivation efforts doubly effective, yet it also made her susceptible to exploitation.
In situations like this, her body could be used as a converter, utilizing her to complete the transformation between half-demon and demon. The pain involved, along with her spiritual power, demonic power, even soul power...
"I have to et Bai Wei."
Bai Zhi couldn’t wait a mont longer. She had to imdiately ask and find out if it was really as she looked. If so... then she would...
Kill Bai Wei.
This was the first ti Bai Zhi wanted to kill soone, or rather, a demon. To go to such lengths—unworthy of being a mother.
The pain involved in this process, Bai Wei could never comprehend.
In fact, Bai Zhi took out a few talismans from earlier, sealing inside them the pain Xiao Jiu had just endured. She would have them experience it all soon enough.
"I need to see her."
"No, it’s too dangerous."
Moh Li grabbed Bai Zhi. He wouldn’t let Xingxing go like this. It was too dangerous.
"Moh Li, don’t worry. They can’t do anything to . I’m the heir of the Bai Family. If they dare make a move against , even indirectly, they will suffer a backlash. Moreover..."
She was now also the heir of the Divine Dragon. They couldn’t kill her; even if she was on the brink of death, she would ultimately survive.
That was Bai Zhi’s bottom line.
"Then I’ll go with you." Moh Jian couldn’t stop it, so naturally, he had to go with Bai Zhi.
He had promised that no matter when or what, he would be by her side.
"Alright."
Bai Zhi did not refuse, taking Moh Li with her towards the palace.
Seeing Bai Zhi and Moh Li, they didn’t seem surprised and went in together.
They were brought to the Demon King, who was no longer in a state of stupor but rather carried a hint of clarity.
"I don’t know what happened. Suddenly, I beca a bit clearer. I want to save Li Mu, please help ."
How coincidental it was, just as they were about to go in and question Bai Wei. The Demon King suddenly woke up?
"It might be because today is the day to reinforce my seal, but for so reason, Bai Wei hasn’t co."
The Demon King seed aware of their doubts and imdiately opened his mouth to explain.
"So where are Bai Wei and the Empress Dowager now?"
Moh Li imdiately asked the question Bai Zhi wanted to ask.
He knew Xingxing wanted to ask this.
"In the Empress Dowager Palace, every three days sadness will co to reinforce my seal once. I don’t know why it didn’t happen this ti.
However, my conscious ti won’t last long. I beg you, there is a basent in the Empress Dowager Palace. Li Mu is there..."
After speaking, the Demon King changed again, returning to that stupor-like state.
Bai Zhi and Moh Li exchanged a look: should they go or not.
Naturally, they had to go, even if it was a dragon’s lair or tiger’s den; they had to venture into it.
In the Empress Dowager Palace at this mont, the Empress Dowager looked at Bai Wei lying on the ground, with little strength left for resistance.
She walked to Bai Wei’s side, her foot next to Bai Wei’s face.
Looking down on Bai Wei from above.
"You dare defy ? Bai Wei, you are very bold, aren’t you? Have you forgotten who helped you get here today?"
The Empress Dowager, although she was the Empress Dowager, did not look old in the slightest, even appearing quite youthful.
Even if she was said to be the sa age as Bai Zhi, no one would find it strange; demons could retain their looks, which was quite normal.
"I rember, but how could you do sothing like this to Xiao Jiu?"
Bai Wei lifted her head, looking at the Empress Dowager with hatred in her eyes. Her Xiao Jiu, her Xiao Jiu...
"What did I do to her? Wasn’t it you who said that as long as you could beco a Great Demon, you wouldn’t mind your daughter sacrificing a little?"
Now coming here pretending to be so kind of good mother, pretending to have mother-daughter love.
Truly hypocritical.
"I... You said it wouldn’t matter, but now look at what Xiao Jiu has beco?"
Xiao Jiu now, she could vanish at any mont.
Yet the Empress Dowager used Xiao Jiu to transform so many Great Demons.
"Huh, indeed it doesn’t matter. But wasn’t it you who agreed? You also wanted power? Bai Wei, since you made your choice, don’t pretend to be a good mother. Isn’t it disgusting?
You want to beco a Great Demon, want power, and also want your daughter. Aren’t your demands too greedy?"
She was very clear about what she wanted; just one thing was enough. As for that son, the Empress Dowager’s eyes narrowed...
"Empress Dowager, the Bai Family spirit doctor has arrived."
Hearing this, the Empress Dowager’s face darkened.
"A spirit doctor? Hah... it’s been a long ti since I heard that title. Could it be that any Ah Mao or Ah Gou can beco a spirit doctor now?"
