She Shocks The Whole World After Retirement

Chapter 1583 He Protects His Hometown, I Protect Him

His injuries were all thanks to her. His wound was still bleeding, but she actually shamelessly came to beg him for help. How could he be charmed by such a selfish, hypocritical, and detestable woman for more than a hundred years?

Jing Ruge heard himself shouting at Zhang Zhanyi with all his might, "Get lost!"

Zhang Zhanyi was stunned by this roar.

She sat on the grass in a daze. After a moment, she suddenly looked up at Jing Rujiu.

Zhang Zhanyi's eyes were filled with determination and madness.

Zhang Zhanyi smiled at Jing Rujiu and said with a spurious smile, "Jing Rujiu, do you think that just because you're saved, your family can reunite and live a happy life? Let me tell you, it's impossible because Yin Mingjue died long ago…"

"Ugh!"

Before Zhang Zhanyi could finish speaking, Yu Huang suddenly pierced Zhang Zhanyi's throat with her sword from the back of her neck.

The Xuan Yu Sword was placed in the middle of Zhang Zhanyi's neck. She wasn't dead, but she was completely unable to speak.

"How noisy!"

Yu Huang retracted her sword and stared at Zhang Zhanyi, who was lying on the ground, with a cold expression.

Then, Yu Huang looked up at Jing Rujiu uneasily.

When she saw Jing Rujiu's pale face, she knew that she had heard what Zhang Zhanyi said.

Yu Huang couldn't help but kick Zhang Zhanyi angrily.

How disgusting!

She didn't forget to cause trouble even before death.

Jing Rujiu suddenly turned to face Si Cheng and looked up at him. Her lips quivered a few times before she asked hoarsely, "Mingjue… is dead?"

Si Cheng's eyes flickered as he panicked and refused to speak. However, he couldn't help but resent Zhang Zhanyi, who refused to give it a rest even before she died.

This sharp-tongued woman was really troublesome.

Si Cheng's flustered reaction confirmed the authenticity of Zhang Zhanyi's words. Jing Rujiu slowly raised her head and looked at Yu Huang.

The mother and daughter looked at each other.

The mother's eyes were filled with tears, and the daughter's eyes were filled with sorrow.

Without waiting for Jing Rujiu to ask, Yu Huang pretended to be calm as she started talking about the cause of Yin Mingjue's death. "She's not lying. Dad is dead."

This made Jing Rujiu's body go weak.

Fortunately, Si Cheng was standing close to Jing Rujiu. When he saw that Jing Rujiu almost fainted, he hurriedly held her arm. "Demoness, calm down!" In a moment of desperation, Si Cheng blurted out this form of address.

Jing Rujiu took a few deep breaths and slowly calmed down. Then, Jing Rujiu choked on her tears as she asked, "Why did he die?"

Yu Huang lowered her eyes and explained calmly, "Thirty years ago, the Holy Spirit Continent's Central Pagoda encountered a huge calamity. Father happened to be the supervisor of that challenge competition. He sensed the danger and in order to protect the world, he could only choose to self- destruct his Beast Heart. Only then did he successfully block the Central Pagoda."

"So that's how it is…" Tears flowed down Jing Rujiu's face and onto her chest.

Jing Rujiu closed her eyes and lamented sadly, "In the end, he still chose to be with his hometown forever. He protected the world, but abandoned you and me. Yin Mingjue, Yin Mingjue, you bastard, why are you so…" Jing Rujiu was unwilling to use any derogatory term on Yin Mingjue.

She had personally witnessed how the young man who had ascended from a small world to the Cang Lang Continent overcame all sorts of obstacles step by step before transforming into a super expert.

She knew very well that Yin Mingjue's goal was to protect his hometown and bring it glory.

What intrigued Jing Rujiu the most about Yin Mingjue was how he still cared about his hometown after seeing the prosperity of the world.

Jing Rujiu couldn't say anything about Yin Mingjue's choice.

She was even proud of Yin Mingjue.

But she couldn't accept it!

She had fought the giant for thirty years and refused to give up on her life. Wasn't it because she wanted to reunite with them one day?

Now that she was finally saved, Yin Mingjue had already died.

How could Jing Rujiu be willing to accept this?

When Yu Huang saw how Jing Rujiu was heartbroken but tried her best not to faint, her heart ached. "Mom, Dad used his own death to successfully protect his hometown. This was his choice. We should be proud of him."

Jing Rujiu laughed through her tears.

"He protected his hometown, but I only want to protect him!" Jing Rujiu didn't want to lose control in front of the child, so she could only hold back her sorrow and wipe her tears.

When Yu Huang heard Jing Rujiu's words, an idea flashed across her mind.

Her mother's wish was to protect her father, but although her father had sacrificed his soul and self- destructed his Beast Heart, his remnant soul had been injected into the anthropomorphic pine by Yu Huang. If she told her mother about the existence of the anthropomorphic pine, perhaps her mother would be able to find purpose in living and motivation to pull herself together.

However, revealing the existence of the anthropomorphic pine wasn't suitable for this occasion.

Yu Huang heaved a sigh of relief and temporarily hid this matter.

Turning around, Yu Huang faced Old Madam Jing, Sr. Song, and the other experts of the Divination Continent as she said loudly, "The reason I came to the Divination Continent this time is firstly to participate in the Divination Conference and fulfill Mentor's expectations of me. Secondly, I wanted to go to the Green Senna Auction and take away the golden hairpin my mother left there. Thirdly, I wanted to find my mother's whereabouts, save her, investigate the truth, and take revenge. Now that these three things have been successfully completed, this trip to the Divination Continent is over."

"Then, Madam Jing, Mr. Jing, and Patriarch Zhang, goodbye!" Yu Huang nodded at the three of them and glanced at Jing Jiaren, who was being taken care of by the Jing family. "Miss Jing, let me give you a piece of advice. Don't be too heartless. Those who are heartless won't have a good ending."

With that, Yu Huang walked to Si Cheng and reached out to support Jing Rujiu's arm. Then, she turned around and said to Mo Xiao, who was standing on the giant's head, "Godfather, please help me take Zhang Zhanyi's corpse away!"

Upon hearing this, Mo Xiao jumped down from the sharp sword cage and transformed into his human form before walking towards Song Ji. "Mentor, please lend me your trash picker's sack."

After Song Ji glanced at Zhang Zhanyi, he really handed a dirty nylon sack to Mo Xiao.

Mo Xiao took the sack and opened it. Then, he carried the dying Zhang Zhanyi like he was carrying trash and left the Demonic Beast Forest first.

Seeing that Mo Xiao had taken Zhang Zhanyi away, Yu Huang, Song Ji, and the others planned to leave with Jing Rujiu.

At this moment, Old Madam Jing suddenly shouted at Jing Rujiu, "Jiu'er!" Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

Jing Rujiu turned around, but didn't say anything.

Old Madam Jing mustered her courage and said, "I didn't kill your father."
