1598 I’m Jing Rujiu. May I Know Your Name?
After saying goodbye to Yu Huang, Sheng Xiao and Song Ji plotted for a long time. Then, Sheng Xiao prepared to set off for other worlds to find the reincarnation of the owner of the divine artifact.
“Go. Oh, right.” Song Ji thought of something and said to Sheng Xiao, “Yu Huang has reunited with her mother and you’ve already ended your seclusion. Logically speaking, you should visit your mother-in-law.”
“Did they really reunite?” Sheng Xiao had been in seclusion for five years, so he did not know what had happened to Yu Huang in the past five years. Sheng Xiao asked anxiously, “How has she been all these years?”
“She has suffered a little, but now, I’ve finally seen the light. The hardships are over.” Song Ji thought of something and suddenly said, “Come to think of it, you’ve probably seen her before.”
“We’ve already met?” Sheng Xiao thought about it carefully, but he still could not remember when he had seen his mother-in-law.
Song Ji reminded Sheng Xiao, “Jing Rujiu is a guest professor in our inner academy now. When you came out of seclusion earlier, she had been kneeling in the crowd and welcoming you with us.” Afraid that Sheng Xiao could not remember who Jing Rujiu was, Song Ji added carefully, “She was wearing a red dress.”
A red figure appeared in Sheng Xiao’s mind.
Sheng Xiao held his forehead and lamented, “Now that you’ve mentioned it, I know who my mother-in-law is. Forgive me for being blind, but when I saw that woman earlier, I thought that she was a new student recruited by the inner academy. I didn’t expect her to be my mother-in-law. My mother-in-law is so young.”
Jing Rujiu and Yu Huang looked more like sisters.
Upon hearing this, Song Ji smiled.
“All these years, Jing Rujiu was actually harmed by the madam of the Jing family. She used a scheme to severely injure Jing Rujiu and threw her into the Divine Worship Cave in the Jing family’s Demonic Beast Forest. There was a super demon beast, the Giant Beast, suppressed in the cave. After Jing Rujiu was swallowed by the Giant Beast, she lost her body and only her Beast Heart soul was intact. After Yu Huang saved her, she used the divine power of the Bone Nurturing Grass to reconstruct her body. That’s why Jing Rujiu looks so young.”
Upon hearing this, Sheng Xiao frowned and his gaze turned sinister. “The female head of the Jing family… Jing Jiaren’s mother, the female cultivator of the Zhang family of Cang Lang Continent?”
“Precisely.”
Sheng Xiao asked again, “How did Yu Huang deal with the female cultivator from the Zhang family in the end? Did the Jing family and the Zhang family interfere?”
“The Zhang family wanted to protect Zhang Zhanyi, but the old lady of the Jing family wished she could refine Zhang Zhanyi into a puppet, so they didn’t protect her. However, Zhang Zhanyi was really too evil. With us backing Yu Huang and other bystanders as witnesses, the Zhang family couldn’t prevent it. Zhang Zhanyi died that day and her corpse was brought back by Yu Huang, who said that she wanted to refine Zhang Zhanyi into a puppet and imprison her soul in the puppet’s body so that she would suffer for at least 30 years. However, she went into seclusion the moment she returned and didn’t have the time to refine the puppet.”
“That’s good.” Sheng Xiao was relieved to know that Yu Huang had a way to punish Zhang Zhanyi. “I’ll pay my respects to my mother-in-law now.”
After leaving Song Ji’s place, Sheng Xiao immediately rushed to the classroom and dormitory area. When he reached the door of the dormitory area, he remembered that this was his first time visiting his mother-in-law, so it was rude to appear empty-handed.
Jing Rujiu sat on the rooftop with a pot of wine in her hand. On her left was Yin Mingjue’s puppet body, and on her right was the Succubus Witch, Sheng Pinghui, whose hair had grown longer.
“Why did that kid leave again?” Jing Rujiu stared at Sheng Xiao, who had turned around and left. Then, she pursed her lips and said, “Could it be something urgent?”
Yin Mingjue naturally wouldn’t answer her question, but the Succubus Witch sitting on her right made a rumbling sound from his throat. Jing Rujiu handed the wine pot to the Succubus Witch and asked, “Grandpa Succubus Witch, do you want a sip?”
The Succubus Witch stared at the wine pot before reaching out to take it hesitantly.
Jing Rujiu saw that the Succubus Witch hesitated and didn’t dare to drink it, so she reached out to help the Succubus Witch hold the wine pot and let it drink it in one gulp. The Succubus Witch gulped down half a pot of wine and burped. Then, he looked at Jing Rujiu with shining eyes and made another gulping sound.
“It’s delicious, right?” Jing Rujiu seemed to have found a confidant and said, “Wait, I’ll go get a few more bottles of wine. Have you drunk white wine before? It’s much more intense!”
Jing Rujiu went downstairs to the wine warehouse and took out a bottle of white wine and two glasses to drink with the Succubus Witch.
However, Jing Rujiu’s alcohol tolerance was as low as Yu Huang’s. She only drank a few glasses but quickly became drunk.
Sheng Xiao brought the gifts to the dormitory area.
He found out from Song Ji that Jing Rujiu lived in dormitory building 78.
Before Sheng Xiao could approach dormitory No. 78, he heard charming laughter. It was so charming that it made one’s bones go numb.
Sheng Xiao looked up at the roof and saw Jing Rujiu sitting on the fence on the rooftop in a red dress. She was hugging the anthropomorphic pine puppet with her right hand and Yin Mingjue, the Succubus Witch, with her left. She looked like a queen bee teasing a shy college boy.
He even said, “Mr. Sheng, your son is quite handsome. Sigh, I really want the three thousand worlds to become peaceful as soon as possible. I also want to go to the Holy Spirit Continent and flirt with the handsome men there.”
Sheng Xiao was speechless.
The rumors were true. His mother-in-law was indeed a demoness.
“Yo.” Jing Rujiu saw Sheng Xiao.
However, Jing Rujiu was a little drunk and did not recognize Sheng Xiao. Jing Rujiu suddenly let go of the Succubus Witch and leaned on Yin Mingjue’s shoulder in an enchanting posture as she winked at Sheng Xiao and asked in a charming voice, “Are you a new professor? Which room do you live in? If you have anything you don’t understand, you can ask me. I’ll tell you everything I know.”
The young man looked embarrassed.
He finally understood why Red Wolf and Baldy still couldn’t forget Jing Rujiu even after so many years.
They really couldn’t be blamed for this. One could only blame Jing Rujiu for being too flirty.
Sheng Xiao admired his father-in-law even more. To be able to win over a demoness like Jing Rujiu, his father-in-law was indeed impressive.
Seeing that Sheng Xiao was silent, Jing Rujiu smiled and placed him on the fence. In the blink of an eye, she appeared in front of Sheng Xiao and pinched Sheng Xiao’s chin with a smile. As she stared at his handsome face, she was mesmerized.
“Little brother.” Jing Rujiu said gently, “I’m Jing Rujiu. May I know your name, where you live, and whether you’re married?”
Sheng Xiao took a step back, but he could not break free from Jing Rujiu’s grasp.
He lowered his eyes and stared at Jing Rujiu calmly as he replied, “I’m Sheng Xiao. I’m from the Holy Spirit Continent and I’m already married. My beloved wife, Yu Huang, is your daughter. In terms of seniority, I should call you my mother-in-law.”
Crack!
Jing Rujiu immediately sobered up.
