Xiao Qianwei's teary eyes and aggrieved expression evoked pity.
She mumbled in reply, "My father's name is Su Nian, and my mother's name is Qian Shudie."
Upon hearing the name, Hong Jiuquan was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and coldly replied, "Don't lie to me, that's impossible."
Her voice was calm and indifferent, as if she didn't care at all about what Xiao Qianweiwei said.
Xiao Qian Weiwei intended to continue using the same story about demons giving birth to daughters to deceive Hong Jiuquan, but to her surprise, Hong Jiuquan directly said, "How can a dead person give birth to children? Who sent you as a spy?"
"Uh..." Xiaoqian poked her finger a little timidly, "Actually, my mother is not dead. You have all been misled. She is alive and well now."
Hong Jiuquan frowned deeply and questioned, "Not dead? That's absurd. If she's not dead, why is Su Nian holding this wedding?"
Xiao Qianwei's eyes darted around, and she answered with a flash of inspiration, "Actually... Father wants to secretly develop a clandestine relationship with Mother!"
Hong Jiuquan looked puzzled and asked, "What is a secret relationship?"
Xiao Qian explained slightly, "It means to hide it from everyone and secretly date!"
Hong Jiuquan frowned and fell into deep thought.
Su Nian is human, while Qian Shudie is a demon. Their marriage would obviously not be recognized or blessed by the world.
Perhaps they could choose to love each other secretly, but...
"This is absurd! If it was just a secret love affair, why hold such a grand ceremony to celebrate this ghost marriage?" Hong Jiuquan said calmly, "In my opinion, this is nothing but a lie you made up!"
Xiao Qianwei quickly waved her hand and explained, "I have absolutely no intention of deceiving you! Aunt Hong, everything I said is true!"
"Hmph." Hong Jiuquan raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a disdainful smile. "Do you think I'm someone who's easily fooled?" Her eyes revealed a hint of shrewdness and vigilance, as if she could see through all falsehoods and pretenses.
Xiao Qianwei thought to herself, "How cautious!" Then, her expression changed instantly, and she pleaded pitifully, "Aunt Hong~ Weiwei is telling the truth. Don't you believe me?"
Seeing Xiao Qianwei's expression, Hong Jiuquan, though still unconvinced, softened his expression.
She gently placed Xiaoqian on the ground, her eyes calm and indifferent, and said, "Such words would make anyone doubt and find it hard to believe."
Xiao Qian seemed a little timid, and said softly, "The reason why Father acted this way is actually... related to Aunt Hong!"
Upon hearing this, Hong Jiuquan couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, questioning with disdain, "How does this have to do with me? This is utter nonsense!"
Her gaze revealed a hint of indifference and detachment, as if she didn't care at all about this so-called connection.
"Because my father is the Dark Knight who saved Aunt Hong back then!"
These words struck Hong Jiuquan like a thunderbolt, exploding in his mind.
She even doubted she had misheard and asked again, "You said...who is Su Nian?"
"Su Nian's father is the Black Knight who saved Aunt Hong in the Quanxiu Secret Realm back then!" Xiao Qian Weiwei, lying on Hong Jiuquan's lap, raised her eyes very seriously. "Back then, Leng Heiyi's clone was at the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm! To save Aunt Hong from a mid-stage Void Refinement cultivator, his strength must have exceeded the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm, right? And looking at the entire Quanxiu realm at that time, who was stronger than the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm?"
Seeing Hong Jiuquan lost in thought, Xiao Qian Weiwei knew that her words had had an impact on Hong Jiuquan's heart. She pressed on while the iron was hot and said, "Aunt Hong, don't you ever think that Su Nian's father's back looks a lot like that black knight?"
When Xiao Qianweiwei said those words, Hong Jiuquan remembered that night.
He was incredibly strong, easily breaking the puppet skin on Si Qiushan, and then easily seeing through Leng Heiyi's clone.
To be honest, when Si Qiushan suddenly appeared at the show that day, Hong Jiuquan did have the idea that Su Nian was the one dressed as the black knight.
Especially when Si Qiushan later told everyone in a high-profile manner that she had voluntarily married Su Nian, Hong Jiuquan felt that something was very wrong.
Then, when Su Nian suddenly displayed top-level cultivation, the seeds of doubt sprouted and grew in her heart once again.
A few days ago, when Su Nian rescued her from the battlefield between the two worlds.
She stared at his retreating figure, momentarily lost in thought.
It felt as if I had seen such a figure somewhere before.
"Su Nian... is she the one I saved that day?" Hong Jiuquan murmured repeatedly in a low voice, his feelings complicated.
"Yes! Now that we've laid everything out on the table, I won't pretend anymore!"
Qian Weiwei, who had been playful and cute just moments before, suddenly became serious and earnest. "I am actually the world-destroying witch, Qian Weiwei, a top powerhouse who once shook the Nine Provinces Demon Realm a thousand years ago!"
Hong Jiuquan looked at her with a puzzled expression, then shook his head.
"How is this possible? Where's the evidence?"
Xiao Qianwei's face suddenly transformed into Hong Jiuquan's appearance, causing Hong Jiuquan to be taken aback.
Then her expression changed again. She stood with her small hands behind her back and said calmly to Hong Jiuquan, "If you don't believe me, you can attack me and test my strength."
Hong Jiuquan hesitated for a moment, then said, "The Illusion Demon Clan has been known for its strong spiritual power since ancient times. If it is the World-Destroying Demoness from a thousand years ago, then her spiritual power should have reached a very high level."
