Chapter 311
Yanzhao: "?"
Ayin destroyed all of her mother's hard-earned materials, and her mother was actually fine with it?
Yanzhao couldn't understand. She thought to herself, Adults really are complicated.
"Perhaps it's because she's been in a high position for too long, and to her, everything in the world has no real distinction. In all three realms, every living being is respectful to her. She had never encountered someone like me—someone so ungrateful."
Nangong Yin took another sip of her warm tea before continuing, "I don't know if she stayed to 'save' me, or for some other reason, but even though she was tied up, she acted like nothing had happened. She really stayed in the Demon Realm for quite some time."
Yanzhao blinked, not really understanding her mother's mindset at the time.
"It wasn't until much later that I realized," Nangong Yin placed her teacup down. "That immortal-binding rope was an artifact she personally forged. It could never have held her."
"She played along with me simply because she was bored. It was rare for something interesting to happen in her life."
Yanzhao's mouth opened in shock, surprise written all over her face.
But after thinking it over, it did seem like something her mother, Yanyuanqing, would do.
Yanyuanqing spent her days in her cave residence, alone and bored, constantly seeking out new experiences just to entertain herself.
"Yanyuanqing... that's just who she is," Nangong Yin's expression grew complicated, her tone carrying a hint of helplessness. "The challenges I faced back then were far more difficult than what you're dealing with now."
Yanzhao nodded seriously, fully understanding. Just hearing Nangong Yin's story made her realize how difficult it must have been to deal with Yanyuanqing.
No matter what kind of situation she faced, Yanyuanqing would always adapt. In other words, neither material wealth nor emotional bonds seemed to matter to her.
In comparison, Yanzhao suddenly felt fortunate. She liked her senior sister, and her senior sister liked her back. She hadn't gone through the same trials Nangong Yin had.
At the same time, she became even more curious—how exactly did Nangong Yin win over Yanyuanqing's heart?
Just as Yanzhao was about to ask, a demon servant entered the courtyard, bowing respectfully to both Nangong Yin and Yanzhao. "The High Princess Han Zhi has sent word. She requests your presence at the main hall."
Nangong Yin asked, "Is this about the Fox Queen?"
The servant nodded, "Indeed."
Nangong Yin understood immediately. Ren Qingyue must have brought back the Fox Queen, and now Tushan Hanzhi and Bai Qingcang were helpless and wanted Yanzhao to use her witchcraft to heal her.
In that moment, a thought flashed across Nangong Yin's mind.
The Fox Queen was unconscious, and the demon clan had no choice but to ask for Yanzhao's help. If they leveraged this situation, could they push Tushan Hanzhi to agree to a marriage alliance between the two clans?
However, she dismissed the idea just as quickly as it came.
Yanzhao and Ren Qingyue's relationship was different from her own with Yanyuanqing. The tactics she had used back then couldn't be applied here.
