Chapter 129 Qian Renxue's Choice
"At that time, your mother, Bibi Dong, was the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall and the only disciple of your father, Qian Xunji."
"But her heart has long been completely captivated by that hypocritical Yu Xiaogang, and she even betrayed her master for him."
"Your father, the then Pope Qian Xunji, in order to prevent the Saint from eloping with an outsider and tarnishing the reputation of the Spirit Hall, forcibly..."
Lin Xiao paused, observing Qian Renxue's reaction. Seeing that her face was pale and her eyes were red, she still fiercely controlled her emotions.
Then he continued.
"After that incident... Bibi Dong developed a tremendous hatred, which twisted her mind."
"And your father, Qian Xunji, was seriously injured while hunting down Tang Hao. After returning to the Spirit Hall..."
"He was taken advantage of by his most trusted disciple, your mother, Bibi Dong, who took advantage of the opportunity to attack him and ultimately... died tragically at her hands."
"Therefore, the person who murdered your father is actually your biological mother, Bibi Dong."
"She hates the Qian family because of this, and she hates you, her daughter who carries Qian Xunji's blood, even more. This is also the real reason why she has never acknowledged you for so many years."
Lin Xiao's words were like thunder, striking Qian Renxue's heart hard.
Every word was like an icy knife, piercing through her years of beliefs and disguises.
The murderer of his father... turned out to be his own biological mother?
This extremely cruel truth made her lose all her strength in an instant.
Tears burst out like a flood, no longer able to be held back.
The golden pupils were filled with mist, and that beautiful face was filled with pain and disbelief.
She even forgot her relationship with Lin Xiao and the occasion in front of her.
She suddenly threw herself into Lin Xiao's arms, as if she had grabbed the last straw.
"Wuwuwu…"
The grievances, confusions, and pains that had been suppressed for many years completely erupted at this moment, turning into heart-wrenching cries.
Lin Xiao's body stiffened slightly, and he felt the delicate body in his arms trembling violently, and the hot tears quickly soaked the clothes on his chest.
The sympathy and pity in his heart were even greater.
In the end, he didn't push her away.
He just raised his hand slightly and gently patted her shoulders as they kept shaking.
At this moment, any words seem pale and powerless.
Silent companionship and comfort may be what she needs most now.
All Lin Xiao could do was give her a shoulder to lean on temporarily and let her vent freely.
Everything depends on Qian Renxue herself, whether she can get out of this cruel truth.
Time seems to stand still at this moment.
The only sounds left in the secret room were the woman's soft sobbing and the man's gentle comfort.
It was unknown how long it had been, so long that Qian Renxue had almost cried all her tears out and her voice had become hoarse.
Perhaps it was the strong willpower developed from years of hiding that came into play.
She gradually stopped crying, and although her body was still twitching slightly, her emotions finally calmed down a little.
She reluctantly broke free from Lin Xiao's warm embrace, with a look of deep apology and a blush on her face.
She looked at Lin Xiao with tears in her eyes, her voice choked with sobs.
"Sect Master Lin... I'm... I'm sorry... Xue'er really... couldn't help it."
She wiped the tears from her face with her sleeve, her eyes filled with complicated emotions.
"I... I didn't expect... the truth of the matter... would be like this..."
"No wonder... No wonder Mother... never acknowledged me..."
"No wonder Grandpa... every time I ask him, he avoids talking about it..."
There was a hint of understanding in her words, as if she understood Bibi Dong's hatred and her grandfather's difficulties, but more of it was an indescribable sadness.
Seeing that Qian Renxue did not immediately point the finger at Bibi Dong, but instead showed a hint of understanding, Lin Xiao was not disappointed. This was also within his expectations.
After all, she was her biological mother, and Bibi Dong's experience was indeed full of tragedy.
He pondered for a moment and decided to tell the deeper and more dangerous truth.
"I know you and Bibi Dong have a deep bond as mother and daughter. She is indeed a victim, a pitiful person."
"But there is one more thing you must be clear about."
Qian Renxue raised her head and looked at Lin Xiao with tearful golden eyes, waiting for what to come.
"Because of her hatred for the Qian family, your mother is now obsessed with destroying the inheritance of your angel clan!"
"And her goal of dominating the continent is not at all for the so-called peace!"
"She has secretly accepted the inheritance of the Rakshasa God, and her mind has been gradually eroded by the evil god!"
"Destroying the continent is probably her true goal deep down!"
Lin Xiao's eyes were as sharp as a knife, fixed on Qian Renxue.
"I don't care how you will handle the relationship between you and your daughter."
"But if she continues to control the Spirit Hall, she will definitely be my enemy, Lin Xiao!"
"You should be very clear about the interests involved!"
"I want to know clearly what choice you will make."
Suddenly hearing such shocking bad news again was a shock even greater than learning the truth about my father's death.
His own mother actually accepted the inheritance of the evil god, her mind was corroded, and she might even destroy the continent?
Qian Renxue felt the world spinning, her mind went blank. She was completely lost once again.
The complex emotions I had previously felt about motherhood were instantly replaced by immense fear and worry.
She suddenly grabbed Lin Xiao's hand, as if it was the only piece of driftwood a drowning person could grab, and begged him in a frenzy.
"Lin Xiao! You even know the secrets of the gods... You must have a way, right?"
"You must have a way to save my mother, right?"
"Please... please help me!"
"Xue'er already has no father... I don't want to... I don't want to lose my mother again..."
"Please tell Xue'er, what should I do... How can I help her, how can I save her..."
Seeing that Qian Renxue was not shaken by his threats, she still firmly chose to help Bibi Dong.
Instead of feeling disappointed, Lin Xiao felt a surge of relief.
As the saying goes, filial piety is the first of all virtues.
If Qian Renxue couldn't even do this, it would really disappoint him. Such a person is not worthy of being his partner.
He did not pull back his tightly grasped hand, but spoke slowly.
"Bibi Dong was victimized by love and turned into a demon because of love. The only way to save her is love."
"Perhaps... you are the only one who can pull her out of hell. Apart from that, even God may be powerless."
The glimmer of hope that had just ignited in Qian Renxue's eyes quickly dimmed with Lin Xiao's words.
She shook her head blankly, tears dripping down her face.
"But...but she doesn't recognize me at all..."
"She only has hatred for me... How can I... How can I do this?"
