Chapter 262: Chapter 259: Speculation about One’s Life Story

"A shrimp-headed female body god statue? That’s Bribodup, the Koutao Fishman God, a weak evil god. It’s just a divine statue, and even if divine power clings to it, it cannot affect much. This world is still under blockade, even powerful gods cannot break through such a blockade to influence a world that is still evolving."

"Those jars you mentioned probably contain ritual offerings. They provide power to the divine statue, causing the effect. Destroying the jars should render the statue useless."

"Even without the blockade, destroying such a minor evil god’s shrine in the outside world would have no consequences."

"Besides, you are a high-level elf; your backing is much greater than that of this insignificant evil god."

Priestess Granny spoke dismissively of the Fishman God, revealing much information. She, with her deep pockets, did not care about a small fine at all.

Mu Ying shook her head, "I used to be a half-elf, but after the Ten Thousand Worlds Trial, I gained another type of powerful extraordinary bloodline. The interaction of the two purged the human lineage, turning me into a pure-blooded elf. Moreover, I was thrown into the forest at birth and never saw my parents. Back then, on Deep Blue Star, there were no elves, so talk of backing has nothing to do with me; I still rely on myself."

Priestess Granny wiped away non-existent tears, looking at her with pity, "My dear child, don’t say that. It’s not easy to purify bloodlines. Your original elf bloodline must have been quite extraordinary. I suspect it might even be divine ancestry, though I’m not sure which member of the elf divine system it could be."

Elves are rather loyal in love, but the elf gods are different, ahem. I shouldn’t say more, but anyway, it’s just that, well, because their role model is that way, their private lives are a bit messy. However, they do value their offspring. There has never been an elf who was abandoned."

"If you were left here by one of your parents, perhaps they wanted you to benefit from the world evolution—this Original World with great potential. Countless people want to send their descendants here for training!"

"But only those born in this world, with the world’s bloodline, can participate in it."

"Our Race also moved here after great effort, not just to find new living spaces but also to secure some advantages in the world’s evolution."

"At such times, the talents born are usually better, and other members of our Race also have a higher chance of breakthroughs."

"And Deep Blue Star has the qualifications to give birth to gods..."

Mu Ying looked at Priestess Granny in a daze as she spilled secret after secret. Though Mu Ying enjoyed listening, she still worriedly asked, "Won’t this violate any agreements and result in fines?"

"No worries, Granny has plenty of money!" Priestess Granny patted her hand. "So don’t overthink it. Your father certainly didn’t abandon you. He couldn’t stay long in this world either. He just didn’t have great judgment, choosing a mother that would abandon her child."

"Why do you think it’s the father?" Mu Ying asked, puzzled.

"Though elves have similar reproductive organs to humans, their way of childbirth isn’t through bodily pregnancy. It’s difficult for an elf female to carry a child from a union with an outsider, with long gestation periods. But male elves can have a normal gestation period with outsider females."

"So most of the first generation of half-elves are the offspring of male elves and human females. Based on your birth date, it wasn’t long before the Evolution Center discovered this place and started monitoring. It’s unlikely that you’re the offspring of a female elf and a human male."

"The discovery of new worlds is initially kept secret. Your father knowing about this place even before the secrecy period ended must mean he’s no ordinary individual!"

Priestess Granny explained the physiology of elves mating across species to her, leaving her baffled.

So, it was her father who, knowing the developmental potential of Deep Blue Star, found a human female here to mate with, ugh, to unite with. Priestess Granny’s frequent talk of male and female mating confused her.

Who could have guessed, a human woman gets pregnant by a man, and then the man disappears, with her not even knowing where he came from. This is just like being deceived and abandoned. It’s no wonder the child was thrown away.

Moreover, Mu Ying noticed that whenever Priestess Granny referred to her so-called father, she used "He," indicating her father might indeed be a god, which fits with the messy private lives characteristic of the elf gods.

Even a god, no matter how weak, would probably find it hard to have the patience to date a human woman before copulating, right?

Furthermore, considering her mother didn’t abandon her anywhere else but in the deep, secluded forest, who would go through such trouble to abandon a child? Wouldn’t it be easier to leave her at an orphanage?

That made the deep, secluded forest rather intriguing.

Perhaps it held some special significance!

Could her father have been deceiving a young lady under the guise of divinity?

Moreover, it might have been that Shi Yin’s father had prayed to the Elf God with his life, which led to her mother being sent to Deep Blue Star’s Qingshan Forest.

Shi Yin was also born with the help of that Elf God; perhaps it wasn’t impossible for this god to conveniently find a woman and have a child while at it.

So maybe that man was indeed her father!

An Elf, even if divine, would probably fancy forests, wouldn’t they? She dared not think of the remaining implications.

Mu Ying had this feeling it was all too melodramatic.

What should she do if she had a scoundrel for a father?

Suddenly, she didn’t find it so unforgivable that her mother had discarded her.

Moreover, she had become quite famous now, and her parentage was no secret on the forums. If her biological mother were still around, she probably would have sought her out by now.

With no news thus far, and no one coming to find her, it was likely that her mother’s fate was more ill than good.

She possessed innate wisdom, so she felt indifferent towards the parents who had not raised her in this life.

Whether it was her Elf God father or her ordinary human mother, she felt no particular attachment.

Thus, on hearing these matters, she was only filled with curiosity and sighs; nothing more.

At most, she felt a smidgen of gratitude towards her father for leaving her the Natural Bracelet because it had been of great assistance to her. It was, after all, a Divine Artifact she had obtained for free.

The artifact was also one that recognized its owner. It wasn’t because she was his child that it accepted her as its master, but because she was a Druid whose ideals and qualifications matched the bracelet’s criteria for choosing its owner. Every effect was unlocked through her own cultivation.

She was very thankful to him for giving her this, but she still had no intention of relying on him as her support.

When she was weak and vulnerable in the past, she couldn’t count on anyone. Without Shi Yin, even with her innate wisdom, she likely wouldn’t have survived – a so-called last resort that ultimately stemmed from parental irresponsibility.

Now that she had some power to protect herself, even though she might still fall short compared to a father capable of producing a Divine Artifact, she could well live on her own.

Having only given her half of his bloodline, a father she had never met, with whom she had no emotional connection, could not be considered a reliable support anyway.
