You said you hated men, why are your eyes now full of love?-Chapter 80 - Childhood, Not Necessarily Beautiful

[However, due to his wife's poor health, she died shortly after Ruan Chuyao was born].

[As his late wife's only child, Mr. Ruan poured all his love into her. He held her in his palm for fear she would fall, and held her in his mouth for fear she would spoil. Even if his daughter wanted the moon in the sky, he would try to get it for her.]

"Mystic... Fox?"

Ji Mu said the words hesitantly.

"This..."

How did the conversation suddenly take such a turn?

The system was speechless at his reaction. [No way, you managed to get through the full moon night storyline, don't tell me that you didn't see Ruan Qingqing's transformed appearance.]

"Transformed?"

Could it be that the girl's appearance just now, with those beast ears and features, is what you call 'transformation'?

Seeing his confused expression, the system had to provide an example to explain, [Host, you know about demi-humans and monster girls, right?]

As a top student since childhood, Ji Mu immediately deduced useful information from this.

"You mean to say that even the silly goose… "

[That's right. Ruan Qingqing has perfectly inherited her father's bloodline. In every aspect, her physical attributes naturally surpass those of humans, making her a demi-human.]

Ji Mu suddenly understood.

No wonder…

Why was the silly goose's physique so special? It turned out that she wasn't even considered a mortal.

"System, please continue."

[As one of the demi-human species, the Mystic Fox, its essence blood has powerful healing abilities.]

Reviving the dead and regenerating flesh and bones is not far off.

[However, due to the impurity of the bloodline, even if it can't completely cure Ruan Chuyao, it can at least alleviate the symptoms that countless renowned doctors are helpless against.]

[After that, it's the story of two young people who spark romance and fall in love.]

[With the continuous supply of Mystic Fox Essence Blood to improve her physique, Ruan Chuyao's complexion improved significantly, and at the age of 27, she successfully gave birth to Ruan Qingqing.]

[During this time, the old Master Ruan, whose body had accumulated numerous hidden injuries, was already running out of time.]

[Unless he could take another step forward in his cultivation as an ancient martial artist.]

[To personally witness his granddaughter's marriage and birth in his lifetime, the old master decided to take the risk and enter a life-or-death seclusion.]

[Before leaving, he temporarily handed over his business to his adopted son.]

Ji Mu raised his hand, indicating that he had something to say.

"Can't some of the Mystic Fox's essence blood be given to Master Ruan? It could prolong his life, right?"

Unexpectedly, this remark drew the scorn of the system.

[Brother, do you think essence blood is like cabbage?]

[That stuff can only be taken in small amounts at a time, and it harms the body and shortens the life span. If it weren't for the abundant heavenly materials and earthly treasures of the Ruan family, Ruan Qingqing's father could barely keep up with the consumption rate of essence blood, and he would have kicked the bucket long ago.]

[Besides, even if it were given to Master Ruan, what about Ruan Chuyao? Do you think the old master would agree?]

Ji Mu embarrassedly coughed lightly.

When he thought about it, it made sense. They weren't stupid; if this method were possible, they would have used it long ago instead of waiting until the end was near.

Although his thinking was a bit off, it didn't affect his ability to roughly guess the story's direction.

[System, after the old master went into the seclusion of life and death, the adopted son started to turn traitor, right?]

"Yes, it was in the fifth year of the old master's seclusion."

"Ancient martial artists, no matter how powerful they are, can't reach higher dimensional levels. It's not like in cultivation novels where they can live for hundreds or thousands of years."

For ordinary people, five years... is too long.

[Sensing the time was ripe, the adopted son, along with other family elders, began to violently seize power and settle scores with Ruan Qingqing's family.]

[Had Ruan Qingqing's father not over-consumed essence blood to enhance his wife's physique, leaving him with only a fraction of his total strength, he could have easily withstood the siege by numerous ancient martial arts experts.]

But there are no "what-ifs" in life.

[He didn't hesitate to transform and reveal his true form, sacrificing his life to ensure the safety of his wife and daughter.]

The system sighed.

[Ruan Chuyao, dragging her seriously ill body, took her daughter and hid everywhere. After many hardships, they finally settled in Tianhua City.]

A first-class heiress, yet she willingly lived in the slums for over a decade.

It really reflected the old saying: A woman is weak by nature, but a mother is strong.
