Description:
In her past life, Jun Mu Yan had a hard life and died miserably. Her unborn child was ripped from her to be refined as an elixir, and even her own flesh was used as someone else's stepping stone.
In this arduous life, she has an outwardly cold, adorable Bao (treasure/baby) beside her.
"Xiao Bao, that woman who wants to form a contract with the sacred beast is Mommy's enemy."
Thus, the top sacred beast becomes Xiao Bao's pet.
"Xiao Bao, this God Musician's inheritance is too powerful!"
Tiny hands move, and the place of inheritance opens. Jun MuYan becomes the only successor of the God Musician.
"Xiao Bao, this man is always pestering Mommy and doesn't let go!"
Xiao Bao immediately strikes to drive said man away... hey, you can't be driven away!?
You're my father? What father? Can you eat that?
