Chapter 667: Chapter 667: The Ancestors Persuade

Wei Xue didn’t know if it was because her and her child’s resentment was too strong.

She simply couldn’t reincarnate.

Her and her child’s souls still resided in the tiger head shoes.

She didn’t know if her parents did it out of guilt or fear, but they had buried her with the tiger head shoes.

Her soul had been trapped in the tiger head shoes ever since.

Perhaps it was her obsession with her child that was too strong, for even in death, the child kept growing in her belly day by day.

But upon birth, it turned out to be in such a form.

But she never despised her own child.

Even if for the first four or five hundred years, trapped in the tiger head shoes, unable to free herself, she was content with her lot.

Later, as dynasties changed and during times of turmoil, some tomb robbers appeared from nowhere and dug up her grave.

Seeing no valuable burial goods, they took her well-preserved bridal dress and the tiger head shoes.

They thought it was a new tomb without giving it much thought and sold the bridal dress and tiger head shoes to collectors who wanted them.

But at first, her and her child’s souls were still in the tiger head shoes.

Later on, she didn’t know when, but she and her child gradually were able to come out.

She didn’t understand what cultivation was, but perhaps because the Evil Qi was too strong, she seemed to be somewhat more formidable than the average wronged spirit.

Some minor ghosts wanted to devour them, but they were driven away by her and her child.

But from the beginning to the end, she never thought about harming anyone.

When she emerged, the Wei Family had already been destroyed, so there was no question of revenge.

She simply wanted to be with her child.

Yet, there were always people who wouldn’t let them be.

Initially, she didn’t know how to hide, and those of the Xuanmen, even those with a little Cultivation Base, could see their existence and wanted to kill them.

All under the guise of "catching ghosts and subduing demons."

No one asked them if they had done evil deeds, if they had ever hurt someone.

Nobody, like Jiangli, inquired why she had become like this.

Those so-called Xuanmen masters, upon seeing them, only wanted to exterminate them.

Wei Xue could only take her child and flee everywhere.

She didn’t want to hurt anyone, and she was even more afraid that after hurting someone, she wouldn’t be able to control herself.

So, her cultivation had always been for the sake of survival and seeking life.

She became increasingly adept at hiding.

Now, very few people from Xuanmen could detect their presence.

"If you say you never hurt anyone, then why did you hurt Zhu Ming?" Pei Jiu couldn’t help but question her, instinctively disbelieving her words.

Wei Xue chuckled, being accustomed to such questioning and not taking it to heart, "It was he who wanted to kill us. He first used the Soul Summoning Talisman, then a number of Magic Artifacts. My child lacks spiritual wisdom; upon being provoked, he reacted. But in the end, didn’t I spare his life?"

Pei Jiu was taken aback.

Indeed.

If it weren’t for Wei Xue sparing Zhu Ming, how could he have clung to life, managing to reach the hospital, managing to hold on until Jiangli came?

Pei Jiu had nothing to say for a moment.

Xun Tianhai and Bai Changfeng looked at Wei Xue and also sighed heavily.

Wei Xue’s situation could only be seen as a microcosm of ancient times, when there were countless young women like her.

Xia Xin looked at Wei Xue, lost in thought, grateful that now was different from before.

"This is my whole story," Wei Xue said, looking at Jiangli, a hint of bitterness flashing in her eyes, "There’s really not much to it. I just want to live, why is that so hard?"

Hearing this, Jiangli’s brow furrowed slightly, "I didn’t say I was going to kill you. You and your child can still live well, but you can no longer stay in the Mortal realm. I think, you wouldn’t want your child to stay like this forever, would you? As long as it has a sliver of soul, I can protect it and lead it to reincarnation. Surely you want it to become a normal child, to grow up safe and sound, don’t you?"
