A Miserable End

Lili swished his tail and sighed. "Venerable Jiayun has not had it easy these past years. She had been holding back a breath of resentment in her heart; otherwise, she would not have broken through to the Void-Traversal Realm so quickly."

Yunxi also sighed and nodded. Raising her hand, she formed a hand seal and used spiritual power to carry Feng Jiayun into the room, laying her upon the jade bed. She then cast an isolation barrier, allowing her to rest in peace.

If she had not traveled here, Feng Jiayun would likely have waited until death without ever receiving news of her daughter. And once she had lost her value, who knew how the Su family would have treated her? It probably would not have ended well.

This time, Yunxi had borrowed the Medicine Immortal Sect's influence and reached an agreement with Su Jing, acting to preserve Sheng Xia's divine soul. But that did not mean the conflict between them had vanished. It had merely been suppressed for the time being. Should she one day offend the Su family's interests, they would surely move against her again. But by then, she would not show them any courtesy either.

Feng Jiayun slept restlessly that night, hovering between dreaming and waking. In her dream, she witnessed her daughter's brief life from the perspective of an observer.

She saw Yunxi ultimately murdered through the joint schemes of her beloved and Wei Yunqing. Not only had they ripped out her daughter's Spiritual Root, they had also dug out her Golden Core. Meanwhile, Wei Yunqing and Sheng Yuhong had stepped upon the corpses of her daughter and countless Weiyu Realm cultivators to ascend into the Spirit Realm.

After learning of her daughter's death, she came to hate Wei Yunqing and Sheng Yuhong even more.
