The Truth

"Can I talk to you, Yan'er?"

Mu Yan looked at Tang Yin and nodded to her. "What do you want to talk to me about, Big Sis?"

Tang Yin immediately sat beside Mu Yan and took her hand, and she began to slowly speak to her. "I know that you hope for your mother to marry Xiao'er soon, and I also hope for the same as you, but you should know that one's feelings cannot be forced. Aunt Qingge had a bad past experience with your father, and that pain still lingers in her heart even now, so she still needs time to accept him. At least she has given him a chance to enter her heart, so you just need to wait for their relationship to bloom, and they will definitely become husband and wife in the near future."

"Sigh, you're right, Big Sis." Mu Yan then pulled Tang Yin to lie beside her and hugged her. "Honestly, I myself feel strange about my feelings for Big Brother, especially since I just met him. However, there is something in my soul that makes me feel so close to him, making me impatient for him to be my father."

'Hmm?' Tang Yin raised her eyebrows after she heard that, especially since she also felt the same feeling as Mu Yan, and it also came from deep within her soul.

Mu Yan looked up at Tang Yin and stroked her cheek. "In fact, I also feel the same way towards you, Big Sis. Somehow, I feel that I have known you for so long, even though obviously we met for the first time yesterday, so I feel confused about my own feelings."

"I also feel that way about you, Yan'er." Mu Yan was surprised to hear Tang Yin's words. "I've thought about various possibilities, but I still don't have an answer to that strange feeling. Perhaps we might find the answer soon, so you don't need to think too much about it, and the answer will definitely come to us by itself."

"I know." Mu Yan then snuggled into Tang Yin's arms while closing her eyes and sniffing her scent, but a faint smile appeared on her face unconsciously.

After a while, Tang Yin suddenly heard soft snoring sounds, and she saw that Mu Yan had already fallen asleep. She caressed her hair while gently patting her back, just like her mother used to do for her when she was a child. 'Seeing her like this makes me want to have a child with Xiao'er, and I'm curious about what our child will look like. Unfortunately, we still have a lot of things to deal with, and our cultivation is still too low, so I'll have to wait patiently for quite some time before asking him to impregnate me.'

Suddenly, Mu Yan muttered something very quietly. "I'm glad that you two are happy now, Yin'er and Xiao'er."

Instantly, Tang Yin froze after she heard Mu Yan's muttering, especially since she called her and her little brother like that, and she tried to listen to her words more clearly.

"We know that you two have always loved each other since childhood, and your father repeatedly asked me to let you two love each other, but I could never accept such a relationship because you guys are siblings." Mu Yan muttered in a sad tone, which made Tang Yin completely shocked. "However, you two are husband and wife now, and mom is happy for you."

'Mom?' Tang Yin muttered in shock after she listened to Mu Yan's words just now. 'How is that possible? Our mother died 18 years ago, and Yan'er is 17 years old now.'

After she thought about it, Tang Yin carefully carried Mu Yan, and she took her to the laboratory as he contacted Xiao Ai to meet them there.

"What about her, Xiao Ai?" Tang Yin asked as she continued to observe the monitor showing the course of Mu Yan's examination.

Xiao Ai stretched out her hand and pointed at the two different wavelengths on the screen. "Based on this data, there are indeed two souls within Mu Yan's body, Mistress. The first soul is her original soul, and the second soul is most likely the soul of your deceased mother."

Tang Yin looked at Xiao Ai in shock. "How could that happen? How could our mother's soul reside within her?"

"Actually, something like this is nothing strange, as old master and I had met several people with double souls in the past, Mistress. However, I myself don't know how exactly it happened, but he once said that it happened because of the burden on the deceased's heart. Perhaps she was worried about the two of you when she died, so she didn't enter the reincarnation circle, but her soul entered Mu Yan's body instead."

Tang Yin was dazed after listening to Xiao Ai's explanation, but she remembered the strange closeness she felt from Mu Yan, and her explanation made the most sense to answer her feelings. "No wonder we have a strange closeness to her; it turns out our mother's soul resides in her. Sigh. I have to discuss this matter with Xiao'er later. Anyway, can you separate their souls?"

Xiao Ai immediately shook her head and explained it to Tang Yin. "Unfortunately, I can't do that, especially since your mother's soul is too weak, so she has to rely on Mu Yan's soul strength, or else she will disappear forever because her time to enter the circle of reincarnation has long passed."

"Do you think my deceased mother's soul will affect Yan'er's character?"

"Yes." Xiao Ai nodded to her. "Mu Yan feels very close to you and my master because of your late mother's soul, which has been in her body for too long, and it has influenced her to some extent."

Tang Yin let out a soft sigh and picked up Mu Yan, taking her back to her room, but Xiao Ai continued to look at them with a guilty look. "I'm sorry, Mistress. I made a promise to my old master, so I can't tell you the truth."

[Xiao Ai's memories]

Eighteen years ago, two people stood in the sky, their gazes fixed on the Tang House, but Old Tang Xiao's expression was filled with sadness and disappointment as he watched Zhao Jing stand on a chair and tie a rope to a large tree behind the house. He definitely realized her purpose in doing that, but he didn't seem to intend to move to stop her.

"Aren't you going to stop her, Master?"

"No." Old Tang Xiao shook his head at Xiao Ai. "You may think that I am selfish, but her death will bring a big change to the young me, and he might become a different person compared to me in the future."

Xiao Ai remained silent as she watched Zhao Jing tie the rope around her neck. Shortly after, she jumped from the chair, which led to her death.

After witnessing Zhao Jing commit suicide, Old Tang Xiao sighed heavily. He then brought the little girl down to her side, and Xiao Ai asked him a question. "What are you going to do to her, Master?"

"Even though I'm disappointed with her decision, she is still my mother, so I don't want her to suffer after her death."

Xiao Ai turned to Old Tang Xiao in surprise as she realized her master's goal. "Are you thinking about doing that?"

"Yes." Old Tang Xiao spoke as his eyes turned completely white, enabling him to see things that others couldn't. Before long, he saw Zhao Jing's soul leave her body, but he immediately enveloped her with his aura. "For now, I have to find the right person to be a vessel for her soul, and my younger self might be able to do something for her in the future."

Old Tang Xiao then spread his senses across the country to choose the right person to house Zhao Jing's soul, and he immediately brought them to a residence after he found the right person for it. When he arrived there, he saw two people discussing something serious, so he didn't immediately move.

"Are you really not going to abort your pregnancy, Qingge?"

"Please forgive me, Fahter. My child is innocent, and this is my own fault because I was too naive, and I trusted Jiang Sheng too much, so I wouldn't abort my pregnancy." Mu Qingge answered Mu Lin as she rubbed her stomach. "Even though I have to face other people's bad opinions about me, I will still give birth to my child, and I will protect my child from those people. If any of them dare to hurt my child's feelings, I will fight them all with all my might."

Mu Lin was not too surprised by his daughter's decision, so he took Mu Qingge's hand. "Since you have made such a decision, I will fully support your decision, and I will help you raise my grandchildren."

"Thank you, Father." After that, Mu Qingge walked straight to her room and laid down on her bed, but she suddenly felt so sleepy and fell asleep quickly.

After that, Old Tang Xiao brought them into the room, pressing his palm against Mu Qingge's stomach. "This little girl has a good mindset, but her fetus is too weak and won't survive long, and she will be disappointed if that happens. However, it's not a big deal for me; I will help her save her fetus, and I will put my mother's soul into her fetus."

Old Tang Xiao then took out several pills and put them into Mu Qingge's mouth, and he used his qi to dissolve them before directing them into her fetus. Besides, he also applied his celestial qi to her fetus, and he deliberately did that to strengthen it.

Once everything was complete, Old Tang Xiao guided Zhao Jing's soul into Mu Qingge's body, or more accurately, into her fetus, before speaking to Xiao Ai. "You have to promise me not to say anything about this matter to the young me or my big sister, and you can help them do something for her in the future."

"Yes, I promise you, Master."

After she reminisced about the incident, Xiao Ai immediately monitored Tang Xiao's condition, who was about to break through to the Xiantian level, but the process had just begun. "If he hadn't absorbed Xie Ao's cultivation before, my master wouldn't have reached this level now, but it would be great for him, so he could go to Earth II and start his true journey as a cultivator. However, he's still inexperienced now, and I also don't have any data about that place, so I have to keep reminding him to always be careful."

Xiao Ai suddenly noticed something strange about Tang Xiao's body, and she was not sure that he would succeed in breaking through to that stage by himself, so she decided to go to see Mu Qingge.

Upon arrival, Xiao Ai immediately explained Tang Xiao's situation to her, and Mu Qingge agreed without hesitation, so she sent her to the hotel where they were staying.

Xing Xing, who was watching Tang Xiao from the side, was surprised by the appearance of Mu Qingge. "Are you Aunt Qingge? Did Xiao Ai send you here?"

"Yes, I am, and Xiao Ai sent me here to help him break through to the Xiantian level." Mu Qingge then turned to look at Tang Xiao, but red hues appeared on her cheeks after she saw his dick towering before her eyes, especially since she had not seen such a thing for almost two decades. However, she ignored that and sat cross-legged in front of him while pressing her palms against his chest, and she slowly circulated her qi into his body to help him.

Since she was still a novice and inexperienced cultivator, Xing Xing watched them silently, but there was a hint of jealousy in her eyes, especially since Mu Qingge was much more mature and pretty than her.
