Chapter Eighty-Five: A Rare Mother
Ling Yu also saw his mother for the first time in this world.
He was an orphan in the original world, and he had no concept of family affection.
It was Ling Xiao who gave him fatherly love and affection, and gave him someone he wanted to protect in this world.
In Ling Yu's memories in this world, there is not much about his mother.
He has the impression that he was raised by his father, rather than by his mother's side like other children.
Since he can remember, his mother has been eating fasting and reciting Buddha in his small Buddha hall.
Ling Yu didn't understand why other children could be accompanied by their mothers, but not herself.
The father's explanation was always so far-fetched, saying that the mother was there to dispel the demons and bless the family with safety.
The mother has to live in the temple.
My mother had to take medicine every day, which was very expensive.
This is Ling Yu's childhood memories of his mother to this day.
There is no company of laughter, no beating of the ruler, no...
Mother is like... There is no existence!
When Ling Yu dug through the secret passage to his mother's room, his initial idea was so naΓ―ve that he was to go to see his mother!
He can walk on the ground, in the open.
But...
Many times he was stopped by his mother's other maid, Xiaohong.
Unlike Xiang'er, who is obedient to herself, Xiaohong is absolutely selfless to herself!
Ling Yu tried to break through, but he was beaten by Xiaohong and his nose was blue and his face was swollen, so he still didn't let him in!
Ling Yu didn't understand, why was it so difficult to see his mother?
He didn't go anymore either...
He once seemed to have seen tears in his fierce little red eyes, and turned his back to wipe them...
But does it matter?
Ling Yu stood in the crowd, looking at his mother on the torture platform from a distance, with mixed feelings...
He could see that his mother was looking at his father tenderly and saying something.
With his current cultivation, he can block out the noise and directly hear what his parents are saying.
But he didn't.
"It's only hurt Yu'er's child, all along, I haven't given him enough maternal love, I am not only an incompetent wife, but also an incompetent mother..."Xiao sighed lightly.
"Don't say that, you're doing this for his good..."
β¦β¦β¦
"The auspicious time has come, and the execution begins!"
The warden suddenly shouted, and ordered the knife and axe to start the execution!
"What's the situation, it's not time yet?"
"I didn't read the indictment either!"
"That's right, no execution!"
"No execution!"
ββ¦β¦β
The people below were so excited that they almost rushed to the execution platform...
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
At this time, the Third Elder's face was extremely ugly, because he had just received the news that the Great Elder and Ling Shuang'er were missing!
In this way, once the living Great Elder appeared, Ling Xiao's murder charge would be self-defeating!
He had a bad premonition.
Executions must be mentioned!
He immediately notified the warden to remove all formalities and carry it out immediately.
Two knife and axe hands, with naked upper bodies, muscles all over their bodies, faces full of flesh, and fierce eyes, holding ghost-headed knives in their hands, strode onto the execution platform and came behind Ling Xiao and Xiao Shi.
"Husband, I thank you!"
"Thank me for what?" Ling Xiao was stunned.
"Thank you for taking care of me for so many years, and taking care of our Yu'er for me, you have paid too much for this family of ours!"
"What did Madame say, isn't it what I should do to take care of your mother and son?"
"I don't want my husband to die like this, I want you to live!"
"Madame, don't! Don't use your power for me, it's the life of a city! β
Ling Xiao was shocked, and a panicked expression appeared on his face that was extremely inconsistent with his personality!
"Yuan'er, think about it, once you use the power of the Xiao family, the entire Xuanwu Empire will shake, and in the end, won't you still die?"
"But I don't want you to die!"
"I said, it doesn't matter if I'm dead, I still have you and Yu'er, as long as you are alive, I have no regrets even if I die!"
"Husband..."
"Yuan'er listens to me, we said okay, as long as you and Yu'er live.
I can live with you to this day, I Ling Xiao is very content, but I can't take care of you and Yu'er anymore in the future..."
"I can let Xiaohong rescue both of us, so that our family of three can be together again!"
"No, that's an opponent who enters the Yuan Realm, Xiaohong can't do it, otherwise how can I sit and die?"
"I don't care what the people are, I must save my husband!"
"But once you cast that forbidden technique, with your current physique, what is the difference between suicide and suicide, I must not allow it!"
"Husband..."
"The Third Elder said that his goal was just to be the City Lord and Great Elder of Star Moon City, and he didn't care about the rest.
The condition he negotiated with me was that as long as I confessed to the crime of killing the Great Elder, he would agree to let you and Yu'er go.
I am willing to exchange my life for your life and that of your son! β
"Husband, it's too easy for you to believe in the villain of the Third Elder, look at him like he is now, as if he wants to let me go?"
ββ¦οΌοΌβ
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Execution!"
After receiving the order, the warden immediately threw out the life and death sign.
"Slash!"
The two executioners picked up the bowl of the sea, poured a large sip of wine, and sprayed it on the devil's head broadsword.
Then he raised the ghost head knife high, and he was about to cut it down!
"Stop!"
At this moment, a fiery figure in a red corset appeared on the torture table, stabbing the two executioners with a short sword in his hand.
The two executioners were only mortal warrior cultivators, but the one who came was a cultivator of the third level of Xuan Qi.
The two executioners had only instinct to step backwards!
"How could it be Ling Min'er, isn't it a girl who makes people look at her favorably? How did you end up messing around here? β
As soon as the third elder saw that it was Ling Min'er, he asked his subordinates angrily.
"Third Elder Hui, it was Miss Min'er who rushed out by herself, and her subordinates didn't dare to stop her, after all, she is your granddaughter..."
"Bullshit granddaughter! If you don't go up and take it down for me, you will be killed, and those who stand in my way will die! β
The three elders looked red and scolded.
The subordinate was stunned, did he have a grandfather who scolded his granddaughter like this?
But he dared to disobey the orders of the three elders, and immediately drew his knife and stepped forward, killing the torture platform to stop Ling Min'er.
At this moment, another purple-clothed girl also fought on the execution platform with a sword, and exchanged stumbling with Ling Min'er, protecting Ling Xiao and Xiao Yuan'er.
"Little Red!"
Xiao Yuan'er shouted, the girl in purple was Xiaohong.
"Madam, it's Xiaohong who is useless, I didn't save you and the city lord earlier!"
Xiaohong said apologetically.
"Silly boy, what you said there, it's good to come..."
At this time, the soldiers who were guarding also rushed up, and a big battle of attack and defense became more and more intense!
The people below also shouted and cheered, and surged forward, and the soldiers who isolated the hundred girls could barely control the situation...
