The Nine-Tailed Fox clan considered themselves to be the best in appearance, and the Nine-Tailed Fox had always believed so before she met Mu Huan and her mother. But after meeting that woman, she realized that a woman's jealousy could be so strong.
Therefore, she eliminated that woman at all costs, causing her only daughter to be thrown into the Forgotten River by her biological father, never to return to the shore.
"Mu Huan, how could you talk to your father like that?"
"Who are you?"
Those four simple words instantly crushed all of the Nine-Tailed Fox's pride and arrogance. She had originally thought that since she was in a high position, and that she and her mother had been squeezed out, she would have felt unfair. But she was surprisingly calm, so calm that it made him want to tear her face off.
"I am your father's wife."
"Oh!" Mu Huan responded softly, pretending to hear it. But in that instant, the red spider lily in her hand was swung out directly, hitting the nine-tailed fox's face, which she was so proud of.
"So you are that vicious woman."
The nine-tailed fox was caught off guard and thrown to the ground. But the wound was truly horrific. There was no antidote or way to repair the poison of the red spider lily. Disfigurement, for a woman, was undoubtedly half the battle.
"Ah!" The nine-tailed fox didn't dare to touch her face. She only felt that her face was in pain, with an intense burning sensation, as if it was swallowing up her entire face.
"Does it hurt?" Mu Huan said softly, not knowing whether she was asking the nine-tailed fox or talking to herself.
"Ghost One should be in pain too."
The Nine-Tailed Fox now completely understood why Mu Huan treated her this way, but so what? He was just a low-level ghost soldier, so she could kill him if she wanted. But she was the Ghost Queen, so what could she do? Did she really have to be told what to do by an exiled, useless person like her?
The other people in the hall were not in a position to speak about such family matters, and just watched the show with a gloating look on their faces.
"Mu Huan, what are you doing?" The Ghost King threw a ghost fire directly towards Mu Huan. The power was so great that it could be seen from the extent of the blazing flames.
Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs! This Ghost King is probably going to be at the end of his rope. The people of all races watching the show just shook their heads!
The Ghost King lifted the Nine-Tailed Fox and looked at Mu Huan again. Instead of being struck by the will-o'-the-wisp fire as he had imagined, the Ghost King's will-o'-the-wisp fire was instead engulfed by another blue flame in Mu Huan's hand.
"So this is all father is capable of?" Mu Huan sneered. No wonder a vixen could get on his head. It seemed like he had been partying all night and his body was no longer in good shape!
"You!" He had long known that his daughter possessed extraordinary abilities, but he thought that her talent had been worn out after so many years in the Forgetful River. However, he never expected that her talent would become more and more intense, and it seemed that it would spread like wildfire.
"Me?" Mu Huan pointed at himself and slowly approached the Ghost King and the Nine-tailed Fox.
"I originally thought that you would have given up on that idea long ago after I've been in Wangchuan for so many years, but I never expected that you would get even worse over the years, and finally even hurt the people around me who care about me. Tell me, how could you be so vicious?" Mu Huan squatted down and looked at the disfigured nine-tailed fox, feeling unhappy.
"Tell me, if I crush your soul, will Gui Yi be very happy?" Mu Huan was not asking for the Nine-tailed Fox's opinion, he was just talking to himself. For such a vicious woman, there was no need to show mercy.
"No, no!" The nine-tailed fox touched her face and shrank into the Ghost King's arms, her body trembling all the time. She had never thought that the daughter of that bitch could grow up to this point. She had always thought that she would not be able to grow in the Wangchuan River.
"How can you just say no?" Mu Huan waved his hand, and the Manjushage vines directly hooked onto the Ghost King and flung him aside. The Nine-Tailed Fox was left alone, completely in Mu Huan's hands.
"King, King!" The nine-tailed fox was calling for help, but what was the use? Her father was in trouble now.
And those who seemed to be friendly with all ethnic groups were just hiding aside and watching the joke, as if it had nothing to do with them.
"Someone will have to pay an equal, or even greater, price for what he did." Looking at the terrified nine-tailed fox, Mu Huan felt a cold indifference. Why was he scared now? Why didn't he think about the consequences when he did those things? Did he really treat her like a soft persimmon, thinking she wouldn't fight back?
"You are definitely going to die, along with your child!" Mu Huan felt that if this woman saw her child die with her, she would be very desperate, right? Just like when she forcibly separated her from her mother, causing her mother to die tragically in captivity.
Karma in the world is reciprocal. Although Mu Huan didn't have any feelings for the mother she had never met, she heard many little kids say that her mother loved her very much, so she decided to just take it as true.
So, let's just take it slow. Don't blame her for being cruel, she's just been through so much over the years, how could her heart not have changed? When she did those things, she should have expected that one day, all of these things would come back to her exactly as they were.
Mu Huan looked at the child held in the maid's arms on the steps of the palace. He seemed very fragile and kept crying! This reminded Mu Huan of his own childhood, when he was still very young and was thrown into the Wangchuan River by his biological father. He was almost devoured by thousands of evil spirits and died in despair.
Suddenly, why can't I make up my mind to be cruel?
"Okay, okay, you can take the child's life. Don't kill me. Don't kill me." The nine-tailed fox is now crazy. She would rather sacrifice her child to save her own life.
This caused many people from various tribes who were watching the show to shut their mouths when they wanted to plead for the nine-tailed fox and her children. What was there in such a mother that was worthy of their pleading?
"He is your child. Are you really so cruel that you would use his life to exchange for yours?" Mu Huan was only surprised for a moment. After all, how could a woman who could get along with her biological father have an ordinary heart?
"But what can I do? I suddenly don't want to kill him anymore. I just want your life to accompany Gui Yi in his burial." Isn't it said that one person takes the blame for his actions? Gui Yi's life was ruined by this woman, so if she kills this woman too, that would be perfect!
"No, no!" The nine-tailed fox was helpless. She had never thought that she would end up like this. If she had known this when she was born, she should have strangled the child to death, along with her bitch mother.
If I had known earlier, if I had known earlier...how could there be so many things I could have known earlier?
