Chapter 1447 Right in front of her
Shangguan Wanrong was stunned. “Why do you have to run around? You’re so young, does your family feel at ease?”
Feng Jiu stopped turning over the pheasant and looked up at her with a smile. “I’m here to look for my mother. Besides, I can protect myself well.”
“Looking for your mother?” She was surprised. “Have you found her?”
“Yes, I found her. She’s at the sect.” Feng Jiu answered, looking at her.
Seeing the smile in the boy’s limpid eyes, Shangguan Wanrong had a sudden and inexplicable palpitation in her heart. She always felt that the boy spoke with deep meaning and obscure, as if shrouded with a layer of gauze, making it impossible for her to see clearly.
“Then, does your mother know you’re looking for her? Does she recognize you since you are in the same sect?” Perhaps it was because the subject had struck a chord with her, she couldn’t help but ask again.
Feng Jiu smiled with her eyes narrowed. “My mother must have thought that I’m at home. My home is far away from here. She wouldn’t expect that I would come here. Besides, she left when I was very young. It’s normal not to recognize me.”
“Why did she leave you?” She asked, looking like she was in a daze.
“My mother’s family didn’t allow her to be with my father, so they arrested her and locked her up. My father raised me alone. Sometimes my father would hold my mother’s things and just stared blankly . I thought, when I have the ability, I will bring my mother back.”
She paused, looking at the dazed and despondent woman in front of her. “I want my family to be reunited. Martial Uncle Shangguan, please tell me. If you were my mother, would you return home with me?”
Shangguan Wanrong stared at Feng Jiu. A burst of tempestuous mood and excitement rose up in her heart. Her eyes reddened and tears rolled in her eyes. At that split second, memories flashed in her mind.
A series of information kept repeating in a way that seemed both incredible and unfathomable…
Before, she always felt that the young man seemed to like to be close to her. She always appeared everywhere she went. On those several occasions, her closeness and joy were so obvious.
Feng Jiu told her that her surname was Feng and she was called Feng Jiu…
Feng Jiu told her that she missed her mother…
Feng Jiu even came to ask her whether she could enter the mystic realm during the experience. Feng Jiu also told her that she only had the Foundation Building strength and could not enter the secret land, yet she came in anyway.
Feng Jiu not only entered the mystic realm, but she also came to her side…
If she had not been able to figure out this series of things by now, she would have been in vain as Shangguan Wanrong.
Looking at Feng Jiu, dressed in azure and disguised as a young man, the more she looked, the more she felt that this was a peculiar woman. What kind of a boy was she?
However, she not only disguised herself remarkably, even her manner also did not have a trace of a daughter’s delicate appearance. When she thought of the way Feng Jiu handled the pheasant neatly and recalled her saying that she often ran outside in order to find her mother, her heartstring was gripped tightly. She made an effort to restrain herself so as not to let her tears fall.
Even if, at this time, she wanted to confirm, even if she wanted to hold her in her arms and ask about things, even if she wanted to hear her call her Mother, she could only hold herself back at this moment.
What was her master going to do to her? She still hadn’t figured it out yet. She didn’t want her daughter to be involved in the same danger as her. When she understood the matter, she would go back with her!
