Hearing Shangguan Yue's arrogant words, Bei Rao, though angry inside, couldn't vent her anger on the surface.
Thinking of how Mo Shisheng was now running around searching for clues for the person behind it all, Bei Rao felt a pang of pain in her heart.
Bei Rao lowered her gaze slightly as she gently looked at Shangguan Yue. "Although the Divine Realm is now in your and his hands, it cannot be separated from the Nuwa Stone. With the Nuwa Stone's whereabouts unknown, you are naturally powerless against the Demon Realm."
"Perhaps what you said had some effect before, but now it has absolutely no effect."
Shangguan Yue sneered coldly, took a few steps to the bedside, and looked down at Bei Rao, as if only such a gesture could show that she was more noble than Bei Rao.
However, to Shangguan Yue's surprise, even though Bei Rao was weakly sitting on the bed, she still possessed a natural aura that Shangguan Yue's deliberate bluffing could not match.
Bei Rao naturally saw through Shangguan Yue's intention, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly, "These words are always useful, no matter when you say them. Why don't you go ask the person behind you what exactly the Nuwa Stone does for the Divine Realm?"
"He's been with me, and now even without the Nuwa Stone, no one can find any fault with him! He..."
Shangguan Yue abruptly stopped mid-sentence, her eyes narrowing slightly, her tone carrying a hint of danger, "Mother, are you trying to trick me into revealing information?"
"You flatter me."
Bei Rao chuckled lightly, "Anyone can guess that you have someone backing you. After all, you couldn't have done these things on your own."
"So what if I can do it, and so what if I can't?" Hearing Bei Rao's words, Shangguan Yue's expression grew even colder. "Mother, I advise you to behave yourself and stop trying to cause any more trouble. Even if Bei Ya has returned, she's nothing more than a pitiful, homeless woman. I am the goddess; what can she do to me?"
"Is that so?"
These words alone reveal Shangguan Yue's true character.
Bei Rao wasn't angry. She looked down at her blanket, seemingly tired. She gently slid into the blanket, closed her eyes, and said, "I'm sleepy, I'm going to sleep."
"..."
Seeing Bei Rao's nonchalant and calm demeanor, Shangguan Yue really wanted to go up and tear her face off.
After taking several deep breaths, Shangguan Yue finally managed to calm herself down.
Before leaving, he glanced deeply in Bei Rao's direction, his eyes filled with a venomous, sinister, and terrifying light.
As the door closed, Bei Rao gently opened her eyes and looked out the window. The dense night seemed to encompass all the novelty and danger.
Thinking of Shangguan Yue's words and the fact that Mo Shisheng is indeed unable to return home, Bei Rao felt waves of sadness in her heart.
It was her inability to protect her daughter that caused Mo Shisheng to still be working tirelessly for the sake of the Divine Realm...
*
Outside the Divine Palace, Mo Shisheng was in a large tree, his gaze fixed on Bei Rao's courtyard.
She has been guarding this place ever since Shangguan Yue went in.
Mo Shisheng thought for a moment. Since the person behind Shangguan Yue was unwilling to show their true face, there must be some reason.
The Nuwa Stone is still in her hands. If that mysterious person wants to completely take control of the Divine Realm, he will find Shangguan Yue again.
So all she needs to do is cast a long line and catch a big fish.
