When Xiao Tong was still in his mother’s womb, he had already heard the story of the Shan family’s ancestors many times.
Back then, the Shan family’s ancestor, Shan Yufei, managed to ascend with his wife, bringing glory and honor to the Shan Family for thousands of years.
However, in the ten thousand years afterward, there were no more ascended from the Shan family. In fact, the Shan Family no longer had any descendants with pure water spiritual roots.
Gradually, the honor earned by Shan Yufei faded away. The Shan family withered like a flower. The Shan family dropped from the number one family in the continent to a third-rate family.
In these thousands of years, many nascent soul stage grandmasters appeared. These people coveted the secret of Shan Yufei’s ascension. Therefore, the Shan Family was still targeted despite their gradual deterioration.
There were even people who wanted to wipe out the Shan family to unearth Shan Yufei’s secret. However, these people were worried about the ascended. They were afraid that Shan Yufei would come down to visit his descendants. Even though the ascended normally would cut off their earthly bonds, Shan Yufei was an exception, supported by the fact that he had ascended with his wife. Therefore, he would look after his descendants.
If he found out the Shan Family had been wiped out, how would he react? The fury of an ascended was not to be trifled with.
Therefore, for assurance, those people only stole from the Shan family and didn’t kill them. The Shan Family couldn’t do anything and allowed their treasures to be taken away by outsiders slowly.
…
Xiao Tong was reborn in the womb of the Shan family’s eldest daughter-in-law. Her husband was the beloved eldest son. However, Xiao Tong’s mother was an ordinary commoner, so she was not welcomed by the family. The eldest son, Shan Lingfei, was a cultivator who was starting to show signs of a genius.
If he wanted to marry, his wife should be a talented cultivator like him. That way, he would earn more resources for his cultivation. However, Shan Lingfei fell in love with a common village girl when he went out to train. If his family barred him from marrying her, he’d rather leave the family.
Shan Lingfei had his own opinions since he was young, and his personality was stubborn. If he made a decision, no one could stop him.
If the family really did not agree to their marriage, then Shan Lingfei would really run away from home. The Shan Family would lose a genius. The family head and a few elders discussed it and could only agree to this marriage.
However, this was merely a delaying tactic.
Not long after the marriage, Shan Lingfei’s wife, Xiaohe, became pregnant. This made Shan Lingfei extremely happy.
He clung to his wife all day and wanted to accompany his son. This made the family members very anxious. Shan Lingfei was losing his focus in his training. This was not good. Furthermore, if Shan Lingfei did not leave, how would they make a move on Shi Xiaohe?
The family head and the elders once again had a secret discussion.
Finally, when Shi Xiaohe was six months pregnant, the family arranged a mission for Shan Lingfei to complete.
No matter how reluctant Shan Lingfei was, he could only leave his wife and child.
The moment he left, someone sent Shi Xiaohe a bowl of medicine. It was actually a bowl of aphrodisiac!
Then, Shi Xiaohe was caught in bed with another man by the entire family head and a few elders.
However, in order not to affect Shan Lingfei’s execution of the mission, no one spread the news that Shi Xiaohe had an affair with a servant because she was too lonely.
The family head and elders temporarily locked Shi Xiaohe in a small, shabby courtyard filled with weeds.
After Shan Lingfei returned, they would deal with her.
Then, rumors flew. People said that the child in Shi Xiaohe’s womb was not Shan Lingfei’s. The rumors spread so far that they slowly became the truth.
One day, Madam Shan asked a servant to bring a bowl of medicine over. It was abortion medicine!
“Drink the medicine, bitch. We will abort the vile spawn in your belly.” Madam Shan, who was dressed luxuriously, revealed her ugly face in front of Shi Xiaohe. “With an affair and an unknown child, she’s not going to be able to seduce my son anymore!” Madam Shan said with extreme anger, “Bitch, don’t think that the Shan family has accepted you. In reality, we have been waiting for this opportunity. We knew you’d cheat on my son. Let’s see how my son will deal with you when he returns!”
Shi Xiaohe cried her head off, “No, Madam, I didn’t have an affair. I didn’t betray Ling Fei!”
Shi Xiaohe wanted to go forward and hug Madam Shan’s leg, but she was kicked away by a servant.
Madam Shan bent over and sneered, “We know that you didn’t betray Fei ‘Er, but that is what we want you to do. Haha…” Madam Shan laughed maniacally. She was in a good mood because she had finally gotten rid of this thorn by her side.
Shi Xiaohe instantly understood.
This was a trap set up by the Shan family.
The goal was to get rid of her and the child in her stomach.
Shi Xiaohe understood that no matter what, they would not let her off. So, she had to escape!
She could not let them kill Shan Lingfei’s child.
She quickly got up from the ground and ran outside.
“Catch her!” Madam Shan naturally would not allow Shi Xiaohe to run away.
They were at the Shan family. Shi Xiaohe was an ordinary woman, and she was pregnant. Where could she escape to?
Hence, she was quickly caught.
Being forced to drink the abortion medicine, Shi Xiaohe struggled non-stop and pleaded loudly, “Madam, please don’t! He is your biological grandson! Please show mercy!”
When Shi Xiaohe said that, Madam Shan exploded. “I don’t have a bastard grandson bore by a common non-cultivator. Force her to drink the medicine!”
Xiao Tong, who was inside Shi Xiaohe’s stomach, was very sad when he heard his own grandmother call him a bastard.
In the past, when someone scolded him for being a bastard, it was his grandmother who went to the offender’s house with a knife to seek justice for him.
Although he did not receive his mother’s love, he received all the love from his grandparents.
His health was not good since he was young, and it was his grandparents who took care of him growing up.
Although he had regrets, he felt very happy.
However, ever since he came to this dark place, he could only hear the sounds outside, and he could not see any light.
There was only sound!
Xiao Tong also didn’t understand why.
After all, when he died, he was only five years old and did not know anything. How would he know that he had actually transmigrated and was now in his mother’s stomach?
Eventually, Xiao Tong grasped that he had been moved to another place.
He was in a woman’s stomach. He could often hear the sound of a man calling him ‘son’ and saying that he had kicked him or something.
It was ridiculous. Xiao Tong was stuck in that small place. If he didn’t change his posture, he would be so tired. It was not that he wanted to kick the man. He just had to move around. Unfortunately, he couldn’t speak or communicate with the man outside.
Xiao Tong was happy inside the woman’s stomach because he could sense that his mother really did love him. He knew that she would continue to love him after he was born.
But now, he heard another woman’s voice. This woman sounded like she was Xiao Tong’s grandmother. But this grandmother…
Xiao Tong frowned.
His grandparents here seemed to dislike him very much.They even wanted him to die.
Why?
In the past, he had love of his grandparents, but he couldn’t get the love of his mother.
But now, he had love of his mother and father, but he couldn’t get the love of his grandparents!
Why?
Xiao Tong couldn’t get it.
One day, when he was deep in thought, he was awakened by the noise outside.
He slowly caught on.
His biological grandmother was forcing his mother to drink the abortion medicine. He was shocked.
The abortion medicine would kill him!
No, he didn’t want to die!
Relying on his instinct to survive, Xiao Tong seemed to have found an exit. He crawled desperately towards it.
His only thought was that he wanted to leave this place.
He didn’t want to die!
He hadn’t even seen his mother yet!
