Chapter 2652: I Am No Longer Alone
2652 I Am No Longer Alone It turns out that the combat beast that fought alongside Mother in the Western Wilderness against the bandits from the Shuntian Prefecture was this little white squirrel beside her.
Mother and daughter were tied together by a mysterious and inexorable fate, yet she was completely unaware.
Chenshang looked at her worriedly.
...
She did not understand what the little young lady was mumbling, but her chest squeezed with heartache.
It was like a huge invisible palm was clutching her heart.
It hurt just hearing her mumble.
It hurt a lot.
It hurt so much...
"Little Young Lady, can you tell me what exactly is going on?"
"Even though Long Chuyun has died, her legend has remained on Sikong Planet these past ten plus years," Qiao Mu explained faintly.
"Sikong Planet? My lady went to the Lower Star Domain?"
"Chenshang, do you know why she left Mu Clan back then?"
"Of course I know." Chenshang gritted her teeth resentfully, "Those ingrates who are worse than livestock forced her to leave."
"Tell me, Chenshang. I will definitely seek justice for Mother," Qiao Mu spoke coldly. Chenshang turned to look at her, and she grabbed her petite hand. "Little Young Lady, you are just one person. You must not court defeat by fighting against overwhelming odds."
"I am not alone." When Qiao Mu said this, a faint tenderness flitted across her eyes. "I am no longer alone. Chenshang, don't worry. I will not take risks for anything I am not certain of."
"Okay. Good, good." Seeing that she was so confident, the old woman's expression also eased up. She nodded quickly and said, "What does Little Young Lady want to know? This old servant will definitely tell you everything I know."
"Nanny, back then, after my mother left the Divine Province alone. She went to the Lower Star Domain, but people were after her life. The Shuntian Prefecture once dispatched 10 thousand men to surround and kill her in the Lower Star Domain's Western Wilderness."
"Back then, she fought alone with her beast and the Startled Swan Dagger. She killed 9000 of Shuntian Prefecture's men and escaped in the end." Thinking about it now, the place she escaped to was Qiaotou Village, situated near Hulan Mountain.
Even though she had won this battle, it took a toll on her vitality.
That was why after giving birth to her, Long Chuyun had already guessed that she would not have long to live...
Thus, after entrusting her daughter to someone trustworthy, she created the secret inheritance realm and died silently and alone. Everything was now logical and reasonable.
As for the little white squirrel, it was indeed a question about how it ran from Long Chuyun's secret inheritance realm to the secret paradise.
The secret paradise was formed by nature, so the little white squirrel must have had some kind of fortuitous encounter to get inside.
In that battle, the white squirrel must have also suffered grave injuries. At present, it had only grown four of its 13 huge tails. It was evident that it had been at death's door after that battle.
It was definitely because of her bloodline that it started pestering her at first sight.
Qiao Mu's petite hand unconsciously patted the furry little squirrel that had obediently curled up not moving in her arms.
Chenshang clenched her fists with her bulging single eye. "Ha, as expected of a bunch of people filled with wild and evil ambitions."
"The information I have gathered is. Shuntian Prefecture's Prefecture Lord Geng Pengcheng has relations with Concubine Shi, but I do not know whether that Concubine Shi was the one who ordered my mother's death."
"Concubine Shi?" Chenshang's expression turned sullen. "She is just a mere concubine. How did she obtain connections to the Shuntian Prefecture?"
"I also find it puzzling." Qiao Mu lowered her eyes and said, "That's why, Nanny, I want to know... why Mother had to leave alone."
