49: Chapter 049: Your Sister, She’s Not Coming Back 49: Chapter 049: Your Sister, She’s Not Coming Back “So the reason I’m so ugly is because I was poisoned with Crimson Spider Poison?” Su Yuexi asked blankly.

Sikong Jing looked at Su Zhenglong again and nodded deeply.

Su Yuexi asked in bewilderment again, “But why was I poisoned?”

At this moment, Sikong Jing’s gaze turned to Su Zhenglong, he sighed and said, “Father-in-law, it’s not good to keep such things concealed.”

“Alas…”

Upon hearing this, Su Zhenglong sighed painfully, his eyes filled with memories and hesitation.

“Yue Xi, it was I who asked your sister to take your place and be taken away by that young master ten years ago.”

“It was also I who personally handed over the Crimson Spider Poison to your sister.”

Finally, Su Zhenglong’s hoarse voice began to softly echo in the room.

With her mouth agape, Su Yuexi couldn’t help but stand up, staring incredulously at her father, tears swirling madly in her eyes.

The one who was taken away in her stead was not her sister by her own will, but at her father’s request.

The ugliness on her face for the past ten years was due to her father’s poison.

At the same time, Mei Xiaofang’s face went pale, staring at Su Zhenglong in disbelief.

She too had been kept in the dark about this matter.

“I have wronged you and even more so Yue Xian.”

The room fell silent; Su Zhenglong, with tears streaming down his face, his voice trembling, said, “I was too indulgent with you, that’s why I would rather have your sister be taken, unwilling to let you get hurt.”

“I was too biased, and I thought I could find an antidote quickly after you were poisoned with the Crimson Spider Poison…”

“But I was injured, and I was no longer able to search for the antidote, it’s also I who has caused you harm for all these ten years.”

This matter had been hidden in his heart for ten years, and now it was finally spoken.

If Su Zhenglong hadn’t been severely injured by that young master, he was confident he could have obtained the antidote.

Because the Crimson Spider Poison was originally his.

But there are no ifs in life.

His older daughter, Su Yue Immortal, was taken with her fate unknown, his younger daughter, Su Yuexi, became known as the ugliest in Yunye, and he lay in bed for ten years.

Whenever Su Zhenglong thought of this matter, he was tortured mentally, suffering immensely.

Suddenly, Su Zhenglong turned his gaze toward the tearful Mei Xiaofang, his voice trembling as he said, “I didn’t want to speak of this before, because I feared shattering the illusion in your heart, you always look forward to the day Yue Xian returns home.”

“But she won’t come back.

She hates me; she must despise me, her father, very much.”

“Wah…”

A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out, Su Zhenglong’s face turned extremely pale, he hoarsely said, “Xiaofang, I have wronged you too.”

After he finished speaking, Su Zhenglong’s eyes rolled back, and he fainted.

“Master…”

“Father…”

The mother and daughter’s faces changed drastically, and they hurriedly rushed to support Su Zhenglong.

But no matter what they did, they couldn’t bring Su Zhenglong back to consciousness, leaving Mei Xiaofang with no choice but to rush to find Doctor Sun in a hurry.

Soon, Doctor Sun arrived.

And the result was very disappointing.

Even after using strong medicine, Su Zhenglong still remained unconscious, his breath very chaotic.

“Master Su is now severely heart-stricken; this is not something that ordinary medicine can cure.”

“Whether he can hold on or not, we’ll see if he can regain consciousness in these next few days.”

After Doctor Sun finished speaking, he also let out a silent sigh and left.

Mei Xiaofang lay in front of the sickbed, crying incessantly, her eyes red with rage as she stared at Su Yuexi and said tragically, “It’s all your fault, why did that noble son have to take a fancy to you?

You are a jinx.”

“Yue Immortal won’t come back, and your father is going to die too, wuuu wuuu…”

Su Yuexi was also in tears, truly not having anticipated that all of this had been caused by her own father.

At this moment, Sikong Jing said, “Mother-in-law, if you should blame anyone, it should be that noble son, everything is his…”

“Shut up.”

Mei Xiaofang, unable to listen anymore, shouted loudly, “If it weren’t for your sudden arrival, causing Yue Xi’s father to unleash his True Qi over and over again, he wouldn’t have ended up like this.”

“Although we were suffering before, at least we were all still alive.”

Opening his mouth and seeing Mei Xiaofang in such an emotional state, Sikong Jing knew that nothing he said now would be of any use.

Some things were simply beyond his ability to resolve.

“Furthermore, in seven days Yue Xi is going to participate in the Yunzhou Grand Selection; by then, she’s surely doomed.”

“What’s the use of her suddenly becoming beautiful, what’s the use?”

Mei Xiaofang felt as though the entire sky had darkened, completely hopeless, rendered in agony by the various misfortunes befalling her.

She had almost no will to carry on living.

Hearing this, Sikong Jing’s expression became serious; he took a deep breath and said, “Mother-in-law, rest assured, if today I can restore Yue Xi’s appearance, I can also make her Martial Arts soar.”

The reason he had not stopped Su Yuexi from participating in the selection was precisely to stun the entire city.

Today’s guests were too few; didn’t everyone in Yunye City laugh at Su Yuexi?

Then let everyone know that Su Yuexi is not just beautiful now, her Martial Arts can crush everyone else as well.

However, such words only caused Mei Xiaofang to scoff disdainfully, deeming it an impossibility within the short span of seven days.

Sikong Jing fell silent again; since his mother-in-law did not believe him, he would show her through actions.

So, he took Su Yuexi with him, leaving Su Zhenglong’s room and solemnly said in the courtyard, “Yue Xi, do you believe me?”

Su Yuexi stared blankly at Sikong Jing, and after a few moments, nodded emphatically.

She believed Sikong Jing this time because he was her husband and had always given her endless surprises.

“Good, then come with me to the room now.”

As Sikong Jing spoke, he pulled Su Yuexi into her room, then bluntly said, “First, take off your clothes.”

“Ah?”

Su Yuexi’s face, still wet with tears, was immediately befuddled, her heart pounding wildly.

In an anxious and unsettled voice, she said, “Brother Jing, with my father in his current condition…

we probably, probably shouldn’t.”

It wasn’t the time for their wedding night now, not when Grandfather was threatening not to allow it either.

“Time is of the essence, there’s nothing inappropriate about it.”

Sikong Jing shook his head and added, “Although seven days is enough, I must make sure you’re not just sufficient in fighting, but also dominating the youth of all Yunye.

I don’t want to see you harmed in the slightest.”

Opening her mouth, Su Yuexi was completely confused.

What did taking off her clothes have to do with seven days later?

“Your Martial Arts Talent is very strong.

Ten years ago, with the help of your father, you planted the Martial Arts Seed.

Even while suppressed by the Crimson Spider Poison, it has been growing in secret, even honing an exceptionally strong foundation.”

Sikong Jing continued to clarify Su Yuexi’s confusion, “Now that the poison is resolved, it’s my turn to help you bring out this power.”

Upon hearing this explanation, Su Yuexi finally had a moment of clarity and asked hesitantly, “Taking off my clothes is for you to guide my True Qi?”

Blinking, Sikong Jing asked puzzledly, “Of course, what else would it be for?”

All at once, Su Yuexi’s entire face went crimson.
