Shen Nuonuo did not understand. She had only been gone for less than half a day—what had happened to Little Xue?

"No, no." Qian Renxue lowered her head, her voice dejected as her little hands clenched her clothes.

Seeing Little Xue like this, Shen Nuonuo understood.

The only people who could make Qian Renxue this heartbroken were either Qian Daoliu or Bibi Dong.

"Little Xue, did Saintess come to see you again?"

Shen Nuonuo asked directly.

Qian Renxue gave a soft hum.

If one did not listen carefully, they would not even hear her.

"Did you say something wrong?"

Shen Nuonuo recalled that Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue had supposedly made up long ago. That should not have happened.

Besides, Bibi Dong was currently reborn and felt guilty toward Qian Renxue.

"Mom was perfectly nice when she came, but later, while we were talking, I said that Yu Xiaogang had stolen Spirit Hall's theories to earn his title of Grandmaster, and then Mom got angry with me..."

Qian Renxue did not understand why her mother would get angry over some stranger.

Shen Nuonuo could only sigh inwardly.

Silly Little Xue!

I told you not to get involved in matters between Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang!

"Big Sister, isn't Yu Xiaogang just a plagiarizing Grandmaster? Why can't I say it?"

Qian Renxue looked at the ever-changing expression on Shen Nuonuo's face, utterly confused.

For a moment, Shen Nuonuo did not know how to explain it to her.

Ah, how should I tell Little Xue? I can't exactly tell her about the relationship between Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang, can I?

Ya Wen heard Shen Nuonuo's inner thoughts.

She was even more bewildered.

The Young Master's mother was the Saintess?

Wasn't the Saintess Qian Xunji's disciple?

A master and disciple getting together?

Ya Wen inwardly exclaimed that this was wild. They really knew how to play.

"?" Qian Renxue did not know why Yu Xiaogang could not be mentioned in front of her mother.

"Little Xue, your mother and Yu Xiaogang are friends, so don't speak badly of her friend in front of her, otherwise..."

Shen Nuonuo covered her face and forced out an explanation.

Sigh, better not let Little Xue know that Yu Xiaogang and her mother had that kind of relationship!

Ya Wen listened with great interest. Unlike Qian Renxue, she immediately guessed the nature of Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang's relationship.

They were most likely former lovers.

Qian Renxue's cheeks instantly puffed up as she huffed angrily. "Hmph, that Yu Xiaogang is a plagiarizing Grandmaster! Even if he is Mom's friend, I'm still going to say it!"

Shen Nuonuo shut her beautiful eyes and rubbed her forehead. It's over. With Little Xue's personality, who knows what will happen if she runs into Bibi Dong again.

"Young Master is so adorable." Ya Wen burst into laughter. She felt that this child was the sort anyone would like at first sight.

Her dear cousin had actually given birth to such an adorable child.

The unexpected praise made Qian Renxue's cheeks flush. She was no longer so angry. "Thank you, Aunt Ya Wen!"

Ya Wen crouched down and pinched Qian Renxue's cheek, smiling. "Let me introduce myself properly. I'm your father's distant cousin, so you can call me Aunt."

"Aunt."

Qian Renxue murmured the word.

"Mm, good girl." Ya Wen's gaze softened as she contentedly patted Qian Renxue's head again.

Watching this scene, Shen Nuonuo felt a sense of crisis rising within her.

How does Little Xue seem to get familiar with everyone so easily?

Ahhh!

Ya Wen continued, "Little Xue, what is your mother's name?"

"Her surname is Bibi, and her given name is Dong. Aunt, Mom has Twin Martial Souls too! She seems to already be a Soul Douluo! Mom became a Spirit Saint at nineteen and even broke the cultivation record for the entire continent!"

Qian Renxue introduced her mother to Ya Wen enthusiastically, her tone full of pride.

Though she disliked how much her mother cared about that plagiarizing Grandmaster.

Her mother really was amazing!

Hehe, silly Little Xue, you'll be amazing in the future too. You'll be the first person on the continent in a thousand years to become a god, even earlier than your mother and the Cheat King. Sigh, you mother and daughter are both far too tragic.

To save your mother, you would not hesitate to burn your life force, risking the shattering of your godhood to unleash your strongest attack. Yet you would still be powerless to turn things around. In the end, your mother would die protecting you from a fatal blow.

In the end, the two of you would only reconcile on the verge of death. But there would no longer be a God of Angels in this world, nor a Rakshasa Empress. Spirit Hall would perish as well.

Thinking of the ending of this twisted mother-daughter pair, Shen Nuonuo could not help but sigh.

Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue both cared deeply for each other, yet each pretended not to care at all.

After the Heaven Dou Palace Change failed, Qian Renxue went to see Bibi Dong. It was also the first time the mother and daughter had met in twenty years.

Bibi Dong told Qian Renxue that failure was just failure and that she could try again. She had originally meant to comfort her daughter.

But her tone was too stiff, making Qian Renxue think she was mocking her incompetence.

Then Qian Renxue deliberately provoked her by calling her "Sister" instead of "Mom." Naturally, they parted on bad terms. After Qian Renxue left, Bibi Dong collapsed into her seat and burst into tears.

The only people who could make Bibi Dong, the Rakshasa Empress, cry were Qian Renxue and Yu Xiaogang.

Ya Wen and Qian Renxue both froze.

Qian Renxue had never expected that although her mother seemed to hate and loathe her, she would still be willing to die for her at the very end.

Ya Wen was both shocked and saddened.

She was shocked because this little pudding before her would turn out to be the future God of Angels.

As a member of the Angel Family, she naturally believed in the Angel God.

The future Angel God would actually be her niece.

Who could understand how surreal that was?

Naturally, she was saddened because this little darling's godhood would shatter in the end, and Spirit Hall would be destroyed...

It left her with mixed feelings.

"? Sister Ya Wen, Little Xue, why have you both gone silent?"

Shen Nuonuo found their gazes strangely odd. They were just staring at each other while holding hands.

Could it be that you two are exchanging flirtatious glances? And you're still holding hands...

No way, no way. Sister Ya Wen, you need to be careful. Little Xue is still young!

Ya Wen's face darkened. What was Miss Nuonuo thinking?!

Though Qian Renxue did not know the exact meaning of "exchanging flirtatious glances," she could tell it was definitely not a good phrase.

Pah, pah, pah! What am I even thinking? Shen Nuonuo shook her head, trying hard to throw away all those messy thoughts.

Ya Wen took a deep breath, telling herself to stay calm. She stood and said to the two of them, "Nuonuo, Little Xue, it's getting late. Let's find somewhere to eat!"

"Okay!" Shen Nuonuo was the first to agree, followed by Qian Renxue.

She was really tired after this whole day.

Just making that miniature Soul Tool Refrigerator had exhausted her. As expected, she had no talent for it.

She should just cultivate properly and strive to become a god as soon as possible!

"Aunt Ya Wen, Big Sister, can we go out for dinner?"

Qian Renxue decided to turn her grief and anger into appetite and have a proper feast!

"That's a great idea! I agree too!"

Shen Nuonuo also wanted to take a stroll outside and turned an expectant gaze toward Ya Wen.

Without realizing it, she truly had become like a child.

Seeing that both little ones wanted to go out, and since she herself had not gone out in many years, Ya Wen agreed.
