Chapter 1175: Chapter 1175: Liu Li’s Origins (Second Update)
Understand everything.
Jiang Fan immediately abandoned his retreat and swiftly flew to the sky above the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion.
He glanced around.
And saw Liu Li and Ling Shu in a courtyard, giving Little Hu and the Rebellious Guy a bath.
The two women were adjusting their moods, preparing for the tribulation.
However, whenever these two girls got together, was there ever a time for harmony?
They had been competing since they were young.
Now, heading to face the tribulation together, it was unavoidable that they would compete again.
"Ling Shu, this time during the tribulation, Young Master Jiang will surely care for me more."
"I was the one who carried his child."
"In this regard, you cannot compare."
Ling Shu smiled gently and said, "Of course, I can’t compare to you."
She took out a laundry board from her space storage device.
She pressed the Rebellious Guy onto it and rubbed him hard.
Liu Li was puzzled, how could Ling Shu surrender so quickly?
It’s not like her style!
Until she saw the laundry board clearly and stood up in shock:
"You, why did you bring such a cursed thing here?"
How could this be a laundry board?
It was clearly the tombstone Jiang Fan had erected for Ling Shu back then!
Ling Shu slapped the Rebellious Guy away, set up the tombstone, and pointed at the words on it with pride:
"What tombstone, look closely!"
Liu Li said, "If this is not a tombstone, then what is it?"
"It has Young Master Jiang’s inscription on it!"
"Tomb of beloved wife Ling Shu, erected by husband Jiang Fan!"
As she recited it.
She suddenly realized something was wrong; the words "tomb" and "erected" were erased.
Ling Shu hugged the tombstone protectively, laughing, "Did you see it clearly?"
"This was written for me by Brother Jiang Fan."
"Beloved wife Ling Shu, husband Jiang Fan."
"What, brother didn’t write one for you? Even though you bore his child."
Liu Li, filled with jealousy, threw down the Little Tiger she was holding, stomping her feet in frustration:
"You deceitful woman!"
"You cheated!"
Ling Shu couldn’t stop giggling behind her hand.
Today’s battle, she was overwhelmingly victorious.
Swish!
A sharp sound through the air, it was Jiang Fan.
He looked curiously at the Little Tiger and the Rebellious Guy who had rolled to the side, looking very aggrieved.
Then he looked at the little girl, one with a red face from anger, the other giggling.
He immediately understood what had happened.
Liu Li, who was bad at competing and loved to play, had likely been driven mad by Ling Shu.
"You quickly put away that tombstone!"
"Or you erect a tombstone for me as well!"
Liu Li’s eyes were red with grievance.
Jiang Fan tapped her forehead lightly, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Living people wanting a tombstone, are you crazy?
He looked seriously at Liu Li and said, "I have something to show you."
He handed the Yang Fish to Liu Li.
Liu Li rubbed her forehead and looked resentfully into the Yang Fish.
But upon seeing it, she froze on the spot.
Then, a wave of inexplicable sadness surged in her heart, and tears fell uncontrollably.
She wiped her tears and said, "Young Master Jiang, what’s happening to me?"
"Why do I cry when I see this snake?"
Jiang Fan thought to himself, as expected.
He softly said, "I think, you might have found your family."
Liu Li was taken aback, then covered her mouth, pointed at the Yang Fish, and then at herself.
Jiang Fan nodded, "Only with someone you share blood ties with would you feel such deep sorrow from within."
Liu Li stood there in a daze, tears falling even more uncontrollably.
At that moment, she didn’t know what to say.
She didn’t have any memories of her mother, no feelings to speak of.
Just an inevitable sadness stemming from her bloodline that she couldn’t control.
Jiang Fan patted her shoulder and took out the Black Jade Box.
"This should belong to your mother, see if you can open it."
Liu Li wiped away her tears.
She held it with both hands, and without doing anything, the Black Jade Box emitted a faint glow as soon as she touched it.
Several white lines appeared from the top of the Jade Box.
With a pop.
The Jade Box, which had been unopened for fifty years on Sanqing Mountain, opened with ease!
Jiang Fan was secretly amazed; it seemed this Jade Box was meant for Liu Li.
Looking inside.
Inside the Jade Box was a Jade Scroll, along with three thumb-sized golden snake shadows.
They looked exactly like Liu Li’s mother.
Elegant and dignified, beautiful and gentle.
Liu Li picked up the Jade Scroll, and a soft, compassionate voice came from within.
"Child, I am so glad you can see this."
"This means you have survived."
Liu Li’s restrained tears began to fall uncontrollably once more.
Though she had never met her, it gave her a familiar feeling emanating from her bloodline.
"Over the years, have you been well? How did you grow up? Did you suffer a lot?"
"My child, I’m sorry, it’s all my fault."
"In Heavenly State, I trusted others too easily and got severely injured, even dragging you into it."
"You should have been the most doted upon little Princess on Spiritual Snake Mountain, but ended up an orphan."
"And your father must be very sad about the disappearance of us, mother and daughter."
"It’s all my fault."
"I could only leave three domains before I died to make amends."
"Choose two trustworthy friends and give each of them one for protection, and they will accompany and protect you to the Demon Continent, Spiritual Snake Mountain."
"These domains can only be used three times. When you encounter enemies, activate it, and it can control them for your use."
"Enough to ensure you safely reach Spiritual Snake Mountain."
"Your father will surely be very happy when you return; you will inherit Spiritual Snake Mountain and may even become a Demon Monarch like your father."
"Unfortunately, I won’t be able to see that day."
"I can only wish you and your father eternal safety from the underground."
"Tell your father not to grieve for me, no need for revenge, as long as you are safe, it’s enough."
"Additionally, warn him to be wary of that Great Sage and not to become too close."
"He’s not right."
"I won’t hold on much longer, child, take care..."
The words abruptly stopped.
Liu Li wept non-stop, sobbing while leaning into Jiang Fan’s embrace, continuously crying.
Jiang Fan, though an outsider, was moved by the final words.
Every word was hanging regret, endless apologies, and unspeakable worries.
Just like his father.
"Everything is in the past now, look forward, you still have family waiting for you to return."
Liu Li cried for a long time until she calmed down.
Noticing Ling Shu’s complex expression nearby, she couldn’t help but snort:
"Jealous? My mother was in the Divinity Transformation Realm, my father is even more powerful, and my family is Spiritual Snake Mountain."
Jiang Fan twitched a little.
Weren’t you two born to be at odds?
Just a moment ago, Liu Li was sad, and the next moment she was competing with Ling Shu again!
Is this a conditioned reflex?
Ling Shu, indifferent, came to Jiang Fan’s side and smilingly said:
"I’m not jealous of you; I just know you’re leaving, so one less fool to bully."
"And it’s good you’re leaving, one less person to fight with me over brother."
"Isn’t that right, brother?"
She smiled, clinging to Jiang Fan’s side, looking smugly at Liu Li.
Liu Li thought of leaving for far away, while Ling Shu could stay by Jiang Fan’s side.
She suddenly felt uncomfortable inside.
Her teeth gritted, "I won’t let you have your way!"
Her eyes shifted, and she grabbed one domain, hurling it into Ling Shu’s body.
"Alright, now that you have my mother’s domain, you should follow her last wish and return with me to Spiritual Snake Mountain!"
What?
Ling Shu hurriedly wiped her forehead, saying, "I won’t go!"
"Take back your useless domain!"
Liu Li lifted her chin and said:
"If you dare not go, I’ll have your connection with Young Master Jiang shattered; so you’d never see each other again."
Ling Shu became anxious: "Brother, stop her!"
Jiang Fan was at a loss for words.
Is it even possible to force someone like this?
