After the golden light dissipated, the group lowered their hands and looked intently in the direction of Long Qianling and the other person.
Bai Changjun had his eyes closed, and it was unclear what was going on.
The group didn't know whether she had successfully undergone the eye transplant or not.
"My lady!" Ah Heng rushed down the steps and ran towards Bai Changjun.
"My lady, how are you?" Aheng reached out and grabbed Bai Changjun's arm, asking with concern.
Bai Changjun slowly opened his eyes, saw the familiar person in front of him, and smiled slightly: "I'm fine, don't worry."
After saying that, she tried to move her eyes and found that her vision had become clear, filling her with joy.
The people around her breathed a sigh of relief when they heard her words.
"My lady, you can see!" Ah Heng was overjoyed and gripped her arm tightly in excitement.
"Yes, I can see you again, Ah Heng..." Bai Changjun looked down at him tenderly, his eyes filled with his reflection.
Bai Yaoguang and the others walked out from behind the pillar to Long Qianling's side, looking at the two excited people in front of them.
After observing them for a while, Long Qianling said, "Her eyes have seen, so now you should tell me what exactly happened with Bai Qingnian!"
Aheng paused, and the people in the hall all looked at him.
Only Long Qianling and Bai Yaoguang knew about the relationship between Bai Changjun and Bai Qingnian; the other two looked completely bewildered.
Bai Changjun was also very curious and asked, "Aheng, what exactly happened back then? Why did Zaizai become Bai Fengfu's child?"
Ah Heng pursed his lips, glanced around, and seeing that they were all staring at him, waiting for him to speak, he sighed and slowly began to speak:
"After I became pregnant, I wanted to leave Qingqiu, but I was discovered and chased by Bai Fengfu's men. I gave birth to my child on the way."
I knew I couldn't protect him alone, so I sneaked back to the Fox Palace when no one was looking. I happened to find a man giving birth to cubs; he had fainted due to a difficult labor.
I couldn't bear to do it and helped him give birth to the baby, but the baby turned out to be stillborn.
At that moment, I looked at the stillborn fetus in my hand, and then at the baby sleeping peacefully beside me. I made a decision, and so I switched them.
I swapped my baby with him, and then I fled to the cultivation world with the stillborn child, which is how I escaped Bai Fengfu's pursuit..."
"Wait, wait, wait, you mean to say that Long Qianling's little fox is not actually Bai Fengfu's descendant, but you and her?" Ming Yuyin reacted, pointed at him, and then at Bai Changjun.
Aheng was taken aback, then nodded: "It's our baby, not Bai Fengfu's."
Upon hearing this, Ming Yuyin looked at Long Qianling. No wonder she said Bai Qingnian was different; it turns out that's how she was different.
Hu Ruo suddenly understood.
"What did you say……"
Suddenly, a male voice rang out, and everyone was startled and turned to look at the door, where they saw Long Ling supporting Zhi Yan as they appeared.
"Ah Ling, where have you been? Something happened at the Dragon Palace, are you alright?" Bai Yaoguang walked to Long Ling's side and asked with concern.
Long Ling shook her head, "I went to Hundred Herbs Valley with Senior Zhiyan and just came back. I heard that Bai Qingnian had an accident, and Senior Zhiyan was worried about him, so I came along. I didn't expect this..."
You will hear these words.
Long Ling didn't say what came next, but everyone knew what was going on.
"Your Majesty, is what he said true? Is Niannian not my child?" Zhiyan looked at Long Qianling among the group, her eyes reddening and her voice choked with emotion.
Long Qianling looked at him and nodded.
Upon seeing this, Zhiyan was struck dumb, staggered, and tears welled up in her eyes instantly, her voice trembling as she spoke.
"How could this be? How could Niannian not be my child... How could this be..."
Seeing him crying so sadly, Ah Heng felt very distressed and quickly walked up to him, reaching out to take his hand.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I had to switch them to save my baby's life. Blame me if you want..."
As Zhiyan listened to his words, she seemed to lose all her strength. Following Aheng's force, she slowly squatted down, buried her face in her hands, and burst into tears.
Seeing this scene, Long Qianling felt bad. After all, Zhiyan had taken care of Bai Qingnian for so many years, and her heart, like the little fox's, was more inclined towards Zhiyan.
So she walked over, reached out and gently patted Zhiyan's shoulder, and said in a stiff voice, "Although the little fox is not your biological child, the feelings between you have not changed because of anything. Everything you have been through together in the past can prove it."
Zhiyan raised her head, her eyes blurry with tears, and looked at Long Qianling. "But... I still can't accept this fact."
Long Qianling sighed, "But no matter what, the little fox is your child, and that will never change."
“You…” Ah Heng, who was standing next to Long Qianling, frowned when he heard Long Qianling’s words, but he didn’t know what to say.
Zaizai is clearly his child. Now that he's back, he can reunite with Zaizai. Zaizai no longer needs a father like him who isn't related by blood!
Long Qianling glanced coldly at Aheng with her red eyes, saying nothing, yet sending chills down his spine.
Long Qianling's gaze returned to Zhiyan, and with a flick of her wrist, she helped Zhiyan up.
"He's right there; you can go see him now."
As soon as Long Qianling finished speaking, he turned to the side, revealing the throne behind him, where Bai Qingnian lay quietly.
"Year after year..."
Zhiyan murmured softly, then ran up to him, knelt on the ground, reached out and held Bai Qingnian's hand, and lay beside him, sobbing uncontrollably.
