1571 They Are So Similar
Yu Huang didn’t know about what happened outside the Divine Worship Cave.
Yu Huang walked alone in the dark Divine Worship Cave.
The terrain in the Divine Worship Cave was complicated and the stone walls were sharp. Because the entrance of the cave was narrow, and there were no other exits to ventilate the cave, the cave was filled with slippery moss. Yu Huang was wearing high-heeled boots, so while she was walking on the moss, she kept slipping.
Considering that she was pregnant now, Yu Huang sat down on a protruding rock. Then, she took off her high heels and took out a pair of snow combat boots from her interspatial ring to wear. Just as she tied her shoelaces, she heard footsteps. That person had also slid in.
Yu Huang sensed the familiar spiritual energy fluctuations on the other party’s body, so she didn’t turn around.
“Why do you think that she’s here?” Jing Jiaren leaned against the sharp stone wall and stared at Yu Huang, who was sitting in front of her. She asked again, “Did you really sense strong grievous energy?” To be honest, Jing Jiaren didn’t believe Yu Huang’s excuse.
If there was really a powerful resentment here, they would be able to sense it.
Generally, in places with strong resentment, the spiritual energy in the air would become thinner, and the clouds in the air would also appear black. The deeper the resentment, the blacker the clouds. However, the air in the Demonic Beast Forest’s territory was fresh and rich in spiritual energy. It didn’t seem like a place that would produce powerful resentment.
Yu Huang was lying.
She believed that Jing Rujiu was hiding here, so she lied in order to lure everyone to find out the truth with her.
“There’s no grievous energy,” Yu Huang admitted frankly.
Upon hearing this, Jing Jiaren suddenly felt angry and scolded, “Yu Huang, you’re just messing around! If I’m not inside, how will you clean up the mess?! Have you thought about it?!” How could she do as she pleased and disregard the consequences?
Yu Huang slowly stood up.
She turned around and looked at Jing Jiaren. Her eyes looked even more soul-stirring than the darkness.
Jing Jiaren was frightened by her gaze.
She noticed that Yu Huang suddenly reached out and pulled out the golden hairpin on her head.
As Yu Huang held the golden hairpin in her right hand, she extended it in front of Jing Jiaren and suddenly said, “Miss Jing, do you know what this golden hairpin is made of?”
Jing Jiaren replied, “The golden pearl of the Dragon God Palace.”
“More than that.” Yu Huang told Jing Jiaren, “Although the golden hairpin is refined from a Golden Pearl, there’s a drop of my mother’s heart blood hidden inside. Not only my golden hairpin, but your golden hairpin also has it. You actually know about this, right? I still remember that you told me in the inner academy that the golden hairpin on your head can sense your aunt’s existence.”
At the mention of this detail, Yu Huang’s lips couldn’t help but curl up into a mocking and cold smile as she said, “Miss Jing, you’ve lived in the Jing family for so many years, so it’s impossible that you haven’t been close to the Demonic Beast Forest once. How can you not know if your golden hairpin has changed?”
“Why are you so afraid of approaching the Demonic Beast Forest and meeting that Soul Suppressing Beast? Isn’t it precisely because when you were drinking the Soul Suppressing Beast’s blood, you accidentally discovered that the golden hairpin on your head had a reaction?!” When Yu Huang had physical contact with Jing Jiaren in the bathroom tonight, she had successfully peeped at Jing Jiaren’s past.
Therefore, Yu Huang knew better than anyone why Jing Jiaren was afraid of facing the Soul Suppressing Beast.
“Miss Jing, you’ve long suspected the relationship between that Soul Suppressing Beast and my mother, but you’ve always pretended not to know. Even calling you a coward is overestimating you.” With a disdainful snort, Yu Huang inserted the golden hairpin back into her bun, turned around, and walked deeper into the Divine Worship Cave.
In the darkness, the golden hairpin on her head emitted a faint rainbow glow.
Jing Jiaren leaned against the stone wall in a daze and her breathing became heavier.
Yu Huang continued to walk a hundred to two hundred meters into the cave before she heard footsteps running towards her. It was the sound of high heels staggering on the moss.
Immediately after, Yu Huang’s shoulder was pressed down by Jing Jiaren from behind. “Yu Huang, I was not pretending to be deaf and mute. I was just afraid of facing the truth.” For the first time, Jing Jiaren admitted her cowardice.
Yu Huang shrugged and shook off the hand that she hated.
Ye Qingyang was right. Jing Jiaren was really selfish.
“When I was young, my soul was unstable. My mother was worried that I wouldn’t be able to awaken my beast form and cultivate divination, so she went out alone to the forest where demon beasts lived to search for the legendary Soul Suppressing Beast. In order to successfully subdue that Soul Suppressing Beast, my mother was seriously injured. She was bedridden for two years afterwards. During those two years, I had been consuming the blood of that Soul Suppressing Beast, so my weak soul had indeed been repaired. I remember my mother’s sacrifice to me.”
“When I was ten years old, my mother asked the most trusted nanny to send me a bowl of Soul Suppressing Beast blood medicine and I drank it without any doubts. However, after the nanny left, I discovered that the golden hairpin on my head had an abnormal reaction. After a period of observation, I discovered that as long as I drank the Soul Suppressing Beast blood medicine sent by my mother, the golden hairpin my aunt left me would become abnormal, so I became suspicious of the Soul Suppressing Beast blood medicine I drank.”
“But that’s my mother. If I insist on finding out the truth, what should my mother do? She did all of this for me. Can I be heartless enough to send her to hell myself?” After revealing the secret she was most afraid of, Jing Jiaren suddenly grabbed Yu Huang’s wrist and said to Yu Huang as she yearned for her understanding, “Yu Huang, if you were me, you would also become as cowardly as me.”
Yu Huang immediately shook off Jing Jiaren’s hand and wiped it in disdain as she said, “Jing Jiaren, don’t think that everyone in the world is as disgusting as you.” Yu Huang shook her head as she said, “When I suspect something, and this matter violates morals, I will definitely uncover the truth without any scruples.”
“Don’t be so naive as to think that I will really believe your explanation. You’re not afraid that your mother will be punished. You’re afraid that the world will condemn you. You’re afraid that you’ll become a sinner who relied on drinking your aunt’s blood to become a genius.”
“Jing Jiaren, from the beginning to the end, the only person you really care about is yourself.” With a smile, Yu Huang lamented, “As expected of the successor that Old Madam Jing is most satisfied with. You and Old Madam Jing are really from the same mold.”
They were all selfish people. For their reputation and power, they could abandon everything else.
In order to obtain power, Old Madam Jing secretly killed her husband, who was a stumbling block. In order to protect her reputation, she didn’t hesitate to extract the power of divination from her biological daughter’s body and completely cut off her mother-daughter relationship with Jing Rujiu.
As for Jing Jiaren?
In order to obtain Old Madam Jing’s recognition and power, she insulted and abandoned her fiancé . For the sake of her reputation, she ignored her aunt’s misfortune.
They were so similar.
