“You…” Ruan Yingzhe was quaking with rage. He was powerful but only in the aspect of cultivation. Naturally, he had not practiced hurling verbal abuse. Bombarded by Shen Yanxiao’s cusses, this expert of the second class promotion was out of words!
Shen Duan could tell that Ruan Yingzhe was furious. The former stepped forward and glared at Shen Yanxiao. “You are a bitch, just like your bastard mother. A filthy mouth like yours can never utter anything decent!”
Shen Yanxiao squinted. Shen Duan’s words surprised her. “What do you mean?” she asked in a hurry.
Shen Duan sneered. “What do I mean? You don’t know, do you? Your mother, Wen Ya, was not a human at all. She was a bastard child of a human and an elf! Everyone thought she was so noble and gentle. But the fact is, she was just a bastard!”
“That is not true!” Shen Yanxiao clenched her fists and kept her eyes on Shen Duan. However, she was well aware after the most recent layer of the seal was undone, the bloodline of elves woke up in her. Was her mother a child of a human and an elf, just like Shen Duan had mentioned?
Shen Duan looked at Shen Yanxiao’s pale face with arrogance. He was gloating.
“Not true? If you don’t believe me, ask your grandfather. Back then, in the entire family, your grandfather and your father were the only ones that knew of your mother’s background. No one else knew, until one day, I accidentally heard a conversation between your mother and your father. If it was not for that, I wouldn’t have known that there was a bastard in our family!”
Everyone here found Shen Duan’s words astonishing.
Everyone shifted their focus to Shen Yanxiao.
Mixed-race people were held in contempt. That was true for the past, the present, and most likely the future. All the mixed-race people would be the subject of disdain and discrimination. In comparison, even Warlocks had a higher social status than the mixed-blood people. No matter why people hated Warlocks, that was a matter of the profession. But being mixed-blood would mean betrayal to their respective races.
Shen Yanxiao frowned. It was not because she hated mixed-blood, but that she finally understood where the bloodline of elves in her came from.
“Grandfather, is he telling the truth?” Shen Yanxiao turned to Shen Feng.
This was a difficult question for Shen Feng. Eventually, he nodded. “Wen Ya was a kind person. You are like her. Both of you are admirable people!”
Shen Yanxiao smiled and turned to Shen Duan who was still smug.
“Thank you for telling me this. As for my mother, whether she was a human or a mixed-blood cannot change the fact that she is my mother. For children, the most important thing is filial piety. I don’t remember my mother’s appearance or her voice but in my heart, I will forever respect her and love her. I am not like a certain someone who is so heartless that he would disregard filial piety and commit a rebellion. Those people are worse than pigs and dogs.”
Shen Yanxiao was not depressed to finally know her mother’s true background. Rather, she was
quite glad.
People in the Brilliance Continent were benighted but that did not include her. Her mother was a mixed-blood, but so what? In modern society, there were people with the blood from eight countries mixed in them, and she just had the blood of humans and elves in her. Shen Duan had wasted his efforts if he thought this information could serve as a heavy blow to her.
Shen Duan did think that Shen Yanxiao would be frustrated by her mother’s identity. However, this little girl was instead smiling brightly! Shen Duan was vexed.
Does this girl know what shame is?
