Chapter 2: She Wants to Boil an Egg
"Stop! Why are you fighting?"
An angry voice echoed from above. A stunning beauty in a light purple dress, with flowing hair and a dress fluttering in the wind, radiating a sparkling aura, descended from the sky.
[You destroyed the Myriad Talisman Sect with a single sword strike, accumulating immense karmic debt. Your mother was not in the sect that day. Now, having attained the Great Dao, she has returned and intends to perish with you.
System Mission: Make her let go of her hatred and embrace you again.
Mission Reward: Ninth-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill.]
Jiang Wan stopped and looked up at the body's mother.
Fairy Xueyun's skin was like snow, and she looked no older than sixteen. She frowned slightly as she looked at them.
Jiang Yao, on the other side, was the first to rush forward and hug Fairy Xueyun.
"Mother, I was doing it for her good. She hit me, Yao Yao is in so much pain, sob sob sob sob."
Little Jiang Wan was stunned. Wow, she knows how to play the victim already at this age?
Then I'll complain too. She's my birth mother, she wouldn't favor someone with no blood relation over me, right?
With that thought, she shot forward like a little cannon towards her birth mother, acting cute and speaking glibly:
"Mother~, she stole my candied haw, stole my jade pendant, and now she's stealing my mother. Mother~, Mother, hug me."
As she spoke, Jiang Wan rushed in front of the beautiful woman, threw herself into her arms, and pushed Jiang Yao aside.
Seeing this, the beautiful woman indeed reached out and hugged her.
Jiang Wan, with her tender, childlike voice, spoke to Fairy Xueyun in a milky tone:
"Mother~, you are Wanwan's birth mother, Wanwan likes you."
Fairy Xueyun held one child in each arm. Hearing her words, a smile bloomed on her exquisite face, as beautiful and gentle as a begonia in spring. Her eyes, looking at the daughter she had found, filled with affection.
"Good girl, Mother likes you too. You two,"
[Reunited in Immortal Venerable Xueyun's embrace, your pure filial piety moved the Immortal Venerable Xueyun, who intended to perish with you, to hold you again and abandon her murderous intent. You must have put in great effort, your filial piety moving the heavens.]
[Mission Complete.]
[Mission Reward: Ninth-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill]
Jiang Wan swore that this was the best system she had ever seen. No, it was a system bro!
The Marrow Cleansing Pill was in her system space; she could eat it anytime. But it was a Ninth-grade one. She hoped it wouldn't wash away her small body.
Before Fairy Xueyun could finish speaking, Jiang Yao, who had been pushed aside by Jiang Wan, closed her eyes and her body went limp, collapsing as if she had fainted.
Fairy Xueyun was greatly alarmed. She quickly let go of Jiang Wan, checked on Jiang Yao, and instructed Jiang Wan.
"You play by yourself first." Then, carrying Jiang Yao, she flew away.
Jiang Wan clicked her tongue. Good thing I rushed over just now, or the mission wouldn't have been completed. This Jiang Yao definitely doesn't have the intelligence of a three-year-old.
Damn it, what three-year-old is this manipulative? How can a university student who's lost ten games in a row compare?
She turned to look at the young boy, her Senior Brother. Thankfully, he was still there. He was already at the third level of Qi Condensation at the age of five. She should be able to start cultivating at three and a half, right?
"Senior Brother, will you teach me how to cultivate!"
Liuhuo, the young boy, glanced in the direction his Mistress had left, his worry for his Junior Sister evident on his face.
He then turned his gaze back to his newly found Junior Sister. If he left now, she would probably be sad too.
"Okay!"
They went into the house, where he taught her and she learned diligently. Qi Induction. It was indeed similar to what was described in cultivation novels.
After sending off Senior Brother Liuhuo, she sat cross-legged on a cushion, attempting Qi Induction.
In the courtyard, Madam Li's sharp scolding voice rang out.
This woman is so annoying!
She had just started meditating, seeing colorful spiritual energy swirling around her, and was about to coax them to play with her when this woman interrupted her.
"Jiang Wan, how can you be so vicious at such a young age? You actually beat Yao Yao until she fainted. I knew you had a wicked heart; I shouldn't have kindly raised you for so many years."
Kindly raised me?
This statement sounds a bit suspicious!
Forced to interrupt her Qi Induction process, she looked with a sullen face at the skinny,เข้ามา woman with triangular eyes and a sharp, mean expression.
"Foster Mother, when you raised me, didn't you treat me as your daughter? Or did you know from the beginning that I wasn't your daughter? Could it be that you deliberately swapped me and Jiang Yao?"
Madam Li's heart skipped a beat. What is this damned girl talking about? She, impossible, she's so young, she can't possibly know!
"What nonsense are you spouting?
Look at how you've harmed Yao Yao to the point of unconsciousness. You're a jinx."
Thankfully, it's my adult soul in this three-and-a-half-year-old body, otherwise, how heartbroken would a little child be to be treated like this?
Even if she wasn't my birth mother, she raised me for three years. Look how concerned Fairy Xueyun is about Jiang Yao. This woman, if I weren't three years old right now, I'd really want to beat her up, but I can't defeat her yet.
Madam Li said, and even reached out to poke Jiang Wan's head.
The little girl's head still had a bump from hitting the stone, so she reached out to block her hand.
"Ouch, you little brat, how can you be so strong? You really ate the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard to dare treat me like this. I'll beat you to death."
Madam Li still thought this was that down-on-its-luck small immortal cultivation family, and she wasn't her daughter, yet she dared to hit her.
She stood opposite her with her hands on her hips, glaring at her with a fierce but cute expression.
"I am the Sect Leader's daughter. You dare hit me? You'd better think twice!"
Jiang Wan's words only made Madam Li angrier. She grabbed her by the back of her collar and dragged her out.
Jiang Wan's short arms and legs flailed in the air, but unfortunately, she was trapped by her small body. Just as she was about to shout desperately, she was knocked unconscious.
When she woke up, she found the ground beneath her moving, surrounded by towering mountain peaks.
What was going on?
Gurgle, gurgle. Her body tumbled, and after rolling down, she realized she was on a large turtle about a meter long.
She didn't know where she was, but being small, she had no choice. She looked around and shouted to the surroundings:
"Is anyone there?
Is, anyone, there--?"
Let alone people, even the turtle from before was gone, leaving only an egg the size of a goose egg in its place.
Did that turtle leave it for her, afraid she would starve to death?
She really hadn't eaten all day, only two bites of candied hawthorn that accelerated digestion.
This crappy place must be Madam Li's doing. She underestimated her wilderness survival skills.
Immediately, she took her short legs and found a large leaf to use as a pot, gathered dry firewood nearby, and started a fire, then began drilling for fire.
The large turtle in the distance had no idea what this tiny little doll was fussing about.
Wait, she, she was going to boil water?
No, she was going to boil an egg--?!!
My child, I'm sorry to you. I wanted to entrust my egg to a human before I died, even if it was through a contract, but how did it come to the point of boiling it for food?
Human cubs are really unreliable!
Jiang Wan pouted her little butt, rubbing her small hands together. Looking at the small fire that had just started, her little hands were getting raw.
[You did not get to eat braised soft-shelled turtle, so you went mad and slaughtered the Xuanwu Clan. Now, you must travel through all the heavens and myriad worlds to find the last trace of the Xuanwu Clan's bloodline. Mission Difficulty: Infinitely High.]
Jiang Wan: A villain, and a psycho too?
Just as she put the turtle egg into the leaf-pot, she heard the system's words and took the egg out again.
This scene made the large turtle, which was about to give up the ghost in the distance, regain a breath of life.
