"At that ti, I will sever ties with the Phoenix Poisonous Insect. I’m utterly disgusted with those bugs!" Wu Wanqing said, her face showing a look of revulsion, which didn’t appear to be feigned.
Bai Ruozhu stared intently at her expression. Was she truly Lanlan, or was it Wu Wanqing pretending?
She glanced at Jiao Ling, who was fixated on Wu Wanqing, her eyes filled with a loving gaze.
Tears had already soaked Jiao Ling’s face. She never dared to hope that she could see her daughter again in this life. Even in this state, she felt it was a blessing from the heavens.
"Moreover, Wu Wanqing just used the Poisonous Insect to contact Wei Yu. He has already obtained the Fen Gu. They have a special way of contacting each other, and in about three or four days, Wei Yu will co looking." As she ntioned Wei Yu’s na, a look of loathing flashed across her eyes.
"You, you really are Lanlan?" Jiao Ling’s lips quivered. She feared it was just a dream, afraid that she would wake up any mont.
"Mother, it’s really ." Lanlan began to cry. "When you gave birth to , he was busy cultivating Poisonous Insects and didn’t care for you. When you went to find chanical materials and accidentally fell, you gave birth to on the mountain. At that ti, you said since there’s mountain and wind, just call Lanlan."
Jiao Ling’s eyes widened, and in the next second, she rushed forward and hugged her tightly.
"Aunt..." Bai Ruozhu felt worried. She thought it was sowhat incomprehensible. Even the circumstances of Lanlan’s birth—how could a newborn baby rember it until now?
"Yes, because Wei Yu caught Lanlan to feed the Poisonous Insect. I never ntioned this to anyone because it hurts my heart when I think of it, so this matter is only known to Lanlan and ." Jiao Ling explained to everyone amidst her tears.
Lanlan also cried, "Mother, I’ve missed you so much all these years, but I couldn’t escape. I was surrounded by those bugs every day, so disgusting! I died prematurely, and my soul was just in a baby state. Wei Yu used those Poisonous Insects to feed the Phoenix Poisonous Insect and nurture my soul. Because I am a soul body, I rember many things clearly and can’t forget them even if I try."
"What about Na Ruolan’s soul?" Bai Ruozhu hurriedly asked.
"Are you talking about the original soul of this body? She has already lost most of her three souls and seven spirits, with only one soul and one spirit left. Later Wu Wanqing woke up and directly devoured her." Lanlan shuddered as she spoke. "Wei Yu never told Wu Wanqing about my existence, and I was too weak to co out. Otherwise, she would have eaten too."
Jiao Ling hurriedly held her, soothingly patting her back, "Don’t be afraid, mother will protect you and not let her succeed."
Bai Ruozhu sat dejectedly on the ground. Ruolan is dead? Even the soul is gone?
If she hadn’t insisted on saving Ruolan at the beginning, perhaps she could have reincarnated early and wouldn’t have ended up with her soul dissipated.
Lanlan looked at Bai Ruozhu and added, "Don’t bla yourself. When Ruolan’s soul departed earlier, she had already entered reincarnation. Missing a soul and a spirit doesn’t an she can’t recover after reincarnation."
"How do you know?" Bai Ruozhu looked up, staring at the face of Bai Ruolan.
Lanlan showed a bitter expression, "I am a Wandering Soul myself. How could I not know? It’s just that I wasn’t supposed to die young, and because of my strong attachnts, I remained."
If it were the past, Bai Ruozhu would never believe in souls and reincarnation. But since she herself was accidentally crushed by a machine in her previous life and transmigrated to this era, how could she not believe in matters of the soul?
Upon hearing the words "die young," Jiao Ling cried even harder, holding Lanlan.
"Mother, don’t be too sad. Now quickly use dicine to control . Otherwise, the Phoenix Poisonous Insect will control the body again, and Wu Wanqing will wake up." Lanlan reminded.
"Yes, let’s go back quickly." Jiao Ling hurriedly picked up her daughter, looking especially anxious.
Initially, Bai Ruozhu was still skeptical, but after hearing Lanlan’s words, she felt it seed more genuine.
If it were Wu Wanqing, she certainly wouldn’t tell everyone that Wei Yu had obtained the Fen Gu, nor would she say Wei Yu would co in three or four days. Even if Wu Wanqing used a Decoy Strategy, she wouldn’t eagerly let people use dicine soup to control her, right?
Moreover, the way she looks at Jiao Ling now carries a sense of reverence and dependence, feelings that don’t seem fake.
Fen Jiu ca over to help, worriedly saying, "Jiao Ling, don’t tire yourself out too much."
Lanlan looked at Fen Jiu and asked, "Who are you?"
"I’m your mother’s man." Fen Jiu replied dominantly.
Lanlan’s eyes widened. After a while, she said, "If you’re good to my mother, that’s fine. But if you’re not, I won’t let you get away with it!"
As she spoke, she snorted, seemingly unhappy with Fen Jiu, like a child whose beloved was completely snatched away.
Jiao Ling showed a smile on her face. She had fantasized that if her daughter could grow up, she would also be sowhat capricious and very adorable like those pampered young girls, right?
Now seeing her daughter right in front of her, she indeed seed a bit coquettish and lovely, and her spirits were instantly lifted.
Bai Ruozhu could feel her aunt’s excitent and joy. She didn’t express her concerns. Since it’s impossible to determine truth or falsehood now, it’s better to observe carefully. If it’s true, mistakenly killing Lanlan would be sothing they would regret for the rest of their lives.
The group quickly returned to Linchuan City. On the way, Lanlan happily said, "Mother, I want to take your surna; I don’t want to be surnad Wei."
"Alright, then you’ll be called Jiao Lan from now on." Jiao Ling laughed. Fortunately, her daughter wasn’t corrupted by Wei Yu.
Soon they arrived at their destination. Bai Ruozhu quickly prepared the dicine soup and placed Lanlan in the dicine vat.
Jiao Ling’s eyes turned red. She turned her head and said to Fen Jiu, "Lanlan hasn’t had a good day, and now she has to soak in the dicine vat. I haven’t been a good mother to her."
Fen Jiu wrapped his arm around Jiao Ling’s shoulders and said softly, "Don’t worry. I heard there are dicinal materials and sacred objects that can stabilize the soul. I will help you find them. Once Lanlan uses them, you won’t have to worry about Wu Wanqing overpowering her."
"But this is not a permanent solution, is it?" Jiao Ling felt it was like carrying a ti bomb that could explode anyti. When could Wu Wanqing be removed?
"Don’t rush. Let Lanlan’s soul stabilize first, and then we’ll look for so Secret thod. I think the Zhong Family might have a way." Fen Jiu said.
Jiao Ling’s eyes lit up, "Yes, everything will get better."
Lanlan soaked in the dicine vat, quickly becoming drowsy, but Jiao Ling didn’t dare to let her fall asleep, afraid that when she woke up, it wouldn’t be her daughter anymore.
"Mother, my soul is weak, I need to rest for a while. Don’t worry, you should rest too. Don’t tire yourself out." Lanlan’s voice grew quieter, and she soon fell asleep.
However, Jiao Ling refused to sleep, her eyes unblinkingly watching her daughter, afraid that the daughter she hadn’t seen for over a decade would suddenly disappear again, and even more afraid that she would wake up to find it was all just a dream.
