Chapter 966: Wenren Qiqi's Plan
The bell with complex patterns vibrated and rang gently in Wenren Jiuyue's palm.
As if in response, another similar bell sounded from not far away.
Jiang Xuxu seemed to see the phantom of the soul tree in front of her eyes. Just like the soul tree she saw at the beginning, on the soul tree full of bells, there was a new bell that was shaking gently with the bell in Wenren Jiuyue's hand.
Jiang Xuxu knew that it was Jiang Huai's bell.
Wenren Jiuyue did not lie to her.
But why...
my brother is obviously a human.
When she awakened the demon vein, she had thought that Jiang Huai had the same situation as her.
But Jiang Huai was obviously just a normal human being in terms of both body and soul.
He is not like her. He would recover quickly from injuries since childhood, and he could be safe and sound even if he was hit by a car. Even though she had not learned the mysterious arts, she still had the Yin-Yang Eyes.
In her understanding, these were instincts given to her by the demon blood in her body.
And these instincts did not exist in Jiang Huai.
How could he... not be a simple person?
"When your brother was born, your mother used some forbidden technique to forcibly imprison the part of his blood that belonged to the demon clan. As a result, he has always been an ordinary person. Even if he awakened his blood, he could not use his demon power normally."
Wenren Baiyi, who was sitting on the seat, finally spoke, his tone was lazy but with the clarity of seeing through everything.
She looked at Wenren Qiqi, her voice was elegant and pleasant,
"Everyone thought that you left your clan and entered the Taoist Academy to practice Xuanshu in order to make yourself stronger, but you just wanted to find a way from Xuanmen to cut off your bloodline inheritance
." Because she didn't want her child to become a vessel for the clan, and in order to get rid of the ridiculous rumor in the clan, she didn't plan to give up having offspring from then on, but tried to cut off everything from the bloodline.
In fact, Wenren Qiqi did find a way.
She succeeded.
Jiang Huai was the first, and Jiang Xuxu was originally going to be the second.
But Jiang Xuxu was secretly snatched away by Guiwu's people when she was born, which resulted in Wenren Qiqi not having time to perform forbidden techniques on her, allowing her to awaken her demonic power normally.
Wenren Qiqi did not refute Wenren Baiyi's words.
Because what she said was indeed true.
But, so what?
"Rather than letting him grow up and become an object of calculation, I would rather he grow up like a normal child."
Wenren Qiqi said.
In fact, the forbidden technique she got from the dean of Haishi Taoist Academy can fundamentally strip away the demon blood.
Once the part of the demon blood is stripped away, the possibility of being discovered and used by the tribe can be completely eliminated.
However, the result of forcibly stripping away the demon blood is that Jiang Huai can only be entangled with illness in this life and his life span will be limited.
As a mother, Wenren Qiqi can't be so cruel to her own child.
So she asked the dean of Haishi to help her and only seal the demon blood in Jiang Huai's body.
In this way, even if he cannot awaken his demonic power from now on, he can still live like a normal person.
Originally, as long as he was not discovered, Jiang Huai could live as she expected.
However, she never thought that what she did could not escape Wenren Baiyi's eyes, and even...
she even unlocked the forbidden technique, allowing Jiang Huai to awaken the part of his imprisoned bloodline...
Wenren Qiqi secretly clenched her palms, feeling unwilling.
She herself was born as a test subject, how could she be willing to let her child become the subject of the tribe's test?
Wenren Baiyi saw the unwillingness in her eyes, and judging from her expression, she could not even see the slightest pity for her daughter on her face.
The elders at the side couldn't help it any longer, and at this time, they said to Wenren Qiqi with a tone full of condemnation,
"In order to fight against the tribe, you let your child destroy the possibility of awakening demon power. Wenren Qiqi, you did this, have you ever thought that the child will hate you after knowing the truth?"
The demon tribe respects strength, so naturally they think that being deprived of the use of demon power since birth and becoming a "waste" who can't use demon power is cruel to any demon child.
Now although the child has awakened blood, he can't use demon power. In essence, he is still just a human being. If he wants to become a container, the risk is still high.
This is all Wenren Qiqi's fault!
Wenren Qiqi glared at the elder who was speaking with red eyes, wanting to speak out in rebuttal, but he didn't know what to say.
Because in her heart, she did owe Jiang Huai.
She decided his future without asking him.
Will Jiang Huai... hate her?
Her heart was inevitably shaken, but at this moment, her clenched hand was gently held by the hand beside her.
The hand was soft and gentle, just like that, it pulled apart her clenched five fingers, and then held them tightly.
Jiang Xuxu said,
"I don't know about other people, but Jiang Huai, my brother... he will never hate you for this kind of thing."
Her voice was serious and firm, with a reassuring power, which inexplicably smoothed the momentary tremor in Wen Renqiqi's heart.
Although they didn't spend much time together after their family reunited, Jiang Xuxu already knew Jiang Huai well enough.
He might regret that he is unable to protect his family.
But he will not feel resentment because his mother deprived him of the right to obtain magic power in order to protect him.
Her brother is the most gentle person in the world.
"Even if he can't use magic power, he has been trying to protect his family in his own way.
Judging his strength only by whether he can use magic power is the lowest standard."
Jiang Xuxu looked at the elders in front of him and Wenren Baiyi on the main seat, with unquestionable firmness in his eyes.
It also made Wenren Qiqi's originally shaky confidence return again.
Staring at the person in front of him without hesitation, Wenren Qiqi said loudly,
"I know my son well! He is not as superficial as you! You old things who have lived for thousands of years can't even see through such a thing! You can't cultivate the Ten Tails yourself, but you want to sacrifice my son. Do you have any shame?!"
"Even if my son awakens the blood of the demon clan, so what? He has no obligation to the Wenren clan. I am his mother. You forced him to awaken his blood without my consent. According to human law, I can sue you!"
Wenren Qiqi's reckless anger made the elders who were always respected look very ugly.
A half-demon who was only two hundred years old dared to point at their noses and scold them...
One of the elders turned cold, and the demonic aura around him emanated. The sharp fox tail behind him was about to go towards Wenren Qiqi regardless of anything.
Jiang Xuxu saw this and was about to take action, but his eyes flashed, and the next second, he heard a painful groan.
But in the blink of an eye, the tail of the elder was pierced by another tail and nailed to the marble floor.
The floor shattered.
Wenren Baiyi, who was sitting on the seat, looked at the elder with a calm expression as before, and even smiled at the corner of his mouth,
"Even if Qiqi is wrong, I, as a mother, should teach him a lesson. You hit my child in front of me. Don't you think too little of me?"
