"How is it, Yunying? How's my hair-dressing skill?"
"Um."
Yin Chaomu carefully combed Su Yunying's beautiful black hair, her eyes filled with the tender light of maternal love.
About fifteen minutes later, Yin Chaomu put down the comb and said softly, "It's done, Yunying."
As soon as he finished speaking, a splash of water immediately rose on the lake.
Su Yunying stood up gracefully from the pool, like a lotus emerging from the water, and walked onto the shore.
The water droplets on her body were crystal clear, sliding down her skin and shimmering with a faint light like pearls;
Her wet hair clung to her cheeks, making her face appear even more radiant and her eyebrows as dark as distant mountains.
Her graceful figure complemented the tranquil surroundings, creating a beautiful and moving picture.
In the blink of an eye, spring had arrived, and a neon-colored bathrobe had already covered her alluring body.
"Come up here too."
"This child."
Yin Chaomu chuckled helplessly and walked onto the lake shore, draping a white bath towel over himself.
The mother and daughter sat quietly by the cold pond, gazing at the starry sky together, neither of them speaking first.
Time passed second by second.
Su Yunying suddenly asked, "By the way, can you tell me about your father? What kind of person was he?"
Yin Chaomu was taken aback; this was the first time Su Yunying had taken the initiative to ask about her biological father.
This thrilled her, and she immediately nodded in agreement.
"Okay, that's the way to go."
"Your father is an excellent man. He is handsome, dashing, humorous, and witty. He is a man you can trust very much."
When Su Luo was mentioned, Yin Chaomu spoke at length, and a rare light appeared in his eyes.
In her description, Sulo was perfect and impeccable.
Aside from what was mentioned before, Su Luo is also a chivalrous person with an overflowing sense of justice, making him a unique existence in this treacherous world of cultivation.
He saved people from suffering, dared to confront evil cultivators directly, and challenged countless injustices in the world. He was a great hero respected by everyone.
Finally, Yin Chaomu, her face still misty with emotion, rested her chin on her hand and said with a wistful expression, "How should I put it, your father was just like Shen Zhao..."
He's always been a champion of justice, can't stand seeing suffering in the world, and always wants to do things perfectly. In short, in my heart, your father is the most perfect person.
Upon hearing this, Su Yunying asked softly, "Then tell me, how did you and your father meet?"
Yin Chaomu's face immediately turned red.
"At that time, your father was being chased by a group of evil cultivators. He happened to arrive at Qifeng Mountain and, in his panic, ran into my boudoir."
To be honest, I didn't want to save him at first, and I was planning to call the clan leader, but the moment I saw the look in your father's eyes...
My heart was inexplicably struck, so I secretly hid him inside the house and then quietly tended to his wounds.
After more than ten days, your father's injury finally healed. During this time spent with your father...
I was deeply impressed by your father's words and magnanimity, and at that moment I vowed that I would marry no one but him.
Su Yunying smiled faintly and continued listening to Yin Chaomu speak.
"Later, the clan chief eventually discovered that I had kept your father hidden. In a fit of rage, he wanted to kill your father to clear my name."
At that time, I was already engaged to the Su family of the Southern Region—yes, Su Lingzhang. I was originally going to marry him.
But after meeting your father, I realized that feelings are something you can't escape.
So, risking being beaten to death by the clan chief, I secretly let your father escape.
For this, the clan chief gave me a severe scolding, but thankfully your maternal grandmother, Luo Fengjiao, pleaded for me.
With a medical examination proving his innocence, the matter was covered up.
But your father's image is already in my heart, how could I possibly accept another man?
However, due to pressure from within the clan, I can only bury my feelings for your father deep in my heart.
At this point, Yin Chaomu let out a long sigh.
"And then what?"
Su Yunying asked curiously.
"How did you and Father come to have me?"
"How could you ask such an embarrassing question?"
Yin Chaomu gently reprimanded Su Yunying before continuing.
"In fact, your father has liked me for a long time. When he learned that I was going to marry Su Lingzhang,
He immediately rushed back to Qifeng Mountain and took me away from the chieftain.
At that time, I felt incredibly happy, and afterwards I traveled with him through the Nine Realms.
They went about their chivalrous deeds and righting wrongs together for two or three years, until that night...
Your father and I were at the edge of a lake, and I surrendered myself..."
Recalling those most beautiful memories, Yin Chaomu's cheeks flushed red.
"You don't know, our Fire Phoenix clan is inherently lustful. When we meet someone we like, we will actively pursue them and never hide it."
After all these years with your father, he never took the initiative; I had to use force to win him over.
Your father and I were by the lake, entwined for three whole days, and it was then that you became pregnant with me.
Upon hearing this, Su Yunying's pretty face also turned red.
It was only after she took the initiative to offer herself to Shen Zhao that he reacted.
Are feelings all hereditary?
Yin Chaomu wrapped her arms around her knees, as if she were immersed in that most beautiful time.
"I was married to your father, and when we found out you were pregnant, we decided to find a deserted place, away from all the turmoil, to live an ordinary life.
But……"
At this point, Yin Chaomu's expression quickly darkened.
"Your father repeatedly thwarted the evil cultivators' plans, which provoked their furious retaliation."
