544 It’s Too Late To Regret

Hu Qiushui gently wiped Hu Yu’s tears. “Silly girl, I’m doing this for your own good.”

It was precisely because she knew that it was too dangerous that she did not want Hu Yu to get involved.

Hu Yu looked at Hu Qiushui. “I don’t want you to die. I have a way to save you.”

Hu Qiushui reached out and touched Hu Yu’s head. When she saw that her daughter’s eyes were filled with tears, her heart ached. “Be good and stay out of this matter. Go back to the Fox Cave and don’t come out. If I don’t come back in a year, don’t enter the human world again and just focus on cultivating in the mountains.”

Hu Yu shook her head. “I don’t want to. You are facing a calamity. Why doesn’t your Venerable help you tide over it?”

Venerables would help their house spirits transcend the tribulation.

Hatred and regret flashed across Hu Qiushui’s eyes.

She quickly hid her emotions, but it did not escape Hu Yu.

Hu Yu gritted her teeth. “If you don’t tell me the reason, I won’t leave. I want to stay by your side. If you die, I’ll die. I’ll face the calamity with you.”

Hu Qiushui quickly interrupted Hu Yu. “Pfft, don’t spout nonsense.”

Hu Yu threw herself into Hu Qiushui’s arms and cried. Hu Qiushui sighed. “This is not the place to talk. Come with me.”

Hu Qiushui left the Huang family with Hu Yu.

Hu Yu walked in front. “I know a safe place. Mother, follow me.”

After confirming that Hu Qiushui was about to undergo the life-and-death tribulation, Hu Yu firmly believed that Liu Sanniang was the person who could save her mother.

Even if the chance was slim, she would not let it go.

Hu Qiushui soon realized where Hu Yu was taking her. Hu Qiushui stopped her. “Yu, who told you about this?”

Hu Qiushui became more suspicious. She felt that Liu Sanniang wanted to do something to her daughter to take revenge on her.

Hu Yu knew what Hu Qiushui was puzzled about. She said truthfully, “Mother, when I saw her for the first time a few days ago, she could tell from my face that you are about to face a life-and-death calamity.”

Hu Yu told her mother about how the little foxes captured Su Yanyu and how Liu Sanniang and the others were looking for the flood dragon.

They arrived at the inn in the meanwhile.

When Hu Qiushui saw Liu Yuanyuan, her expression was cold and gloomy.

Liu Yuanyuan was not afraid at all while Su Yanyu’s legs trembled at the sight of the little fox and the old fox…

General Black came down from upstairs and slowly walked to Su Yanyu’s side.

Su Yanyu wanted to cozy up to him immediately. “With Brother Black around, I instantly feel safe.”

Hu Yu pulled Hu Qiushui. “Mother, let’s go straight to see Miss Liu.”

Hu Qiushui nodded and went upstairs with Hu Yu.

Liu Yuanyuan stood up.

Su Yanyu looked at her. “Miss Yuanyuan, where are you going?”

Liu Yuanyuan said angrily, “As Venerable Liu’s house spiriti, I naturally have to protect her.”

With that Liu Yuanyuan went upstairs.

General Black followed suit.

Su Yanyu touched his nose and couldn’t help but follow, but he was very conflicted.

It was a fight between masters up there. Why was he going up?

When Hu Yu and Hu Qiushui entered the house, Liu Sanniang stopped making talismans.

Hu Yu looked at Liu Sanniang. “You said that you have a way to save my mother. As long as you can save my mother, you can ask for anything.”

Hu Qiushui stared at Liu Sanniang without looking away. She did not have much hope and followed Hu Yu because she did not want Hu Yu to have any regrets.

Liu Sanniang looked at Hu Qiushui. “Sit down and give me your hand.”

Hu Qiushui frowned. She looked at Hu Yu who seemed anxious and conflicted. Hu Qiushui sighed and walked to the table in front of Liu Sanniang to sit down.

Initially, she did not want Hu Yu to know about this heavenly tribulation. She had already made up a reason to fool her, but Hu Yu was already aware. Whether she could live or not was no longer important. What was important was not leaving any regrets in Hu Yu’s heart.

She only had one daughter. The last thing she wanted was for Hu Yu to be sad because of her death.

Hu Qiushui sat down and extended her hand. She looked at Liu Sanniang but did not believe that Liu Sanniang really had any heaven-defying ability.

Liu Sanniang placed her hand on Hu Qiushui’s wrist. Hu Qiushui’s mental defense was like a layer of water curtain. She was different from humans. Human memories were a whole, but the memories of the foxes were heavily fortified.

After breaking through a layer, Liu Sanniang felt Hu Qiushui’s tremble.

She looked at Liu Sanniang in confusion.

Liu Sanniang said slowly, “I feel a strong sense of regret. You’ve already started to regret it, right, but it’s too late.”

That’s because what had to happen had already happened.

Hu Qiushui’s eyes became filled with shock. She retracted her hand and wanted to take it back from Liu Sanniang’s wrist, but Liu Sanniang suddenly tightened her grip.

Hu Qiushui lowered her voice. “Let go of me.”

Liu Sanniang closed her eyes and majestic power surged out, breaking through Hu Qiushui’s layers of mental defense. Hu Qiushui’s expression turned cold as she used all her strength to resist. With a sharp scream, she broke free.

The moment Hu Qiushui’s expression changed drastically, Hu Yu came to Hu Qiushui’s side and bared her teeth and claws at Liu Sanniang. Standing beside Liu Sanniang, Liu Yuanyuan was not to be outdone and hissed back in warning.

Liu Sanniang opened her eyes. “Although you are suffering from the monstrous resentment of the flood dragon, which caused the heavenly tribulation to be brought forward, the sin of the flood dragon’s death doesn’t really belong to you, so there’s still a chance of survival for you. This chance of survival is to return the sin to the person who really deserves it.”

Hu Qiushui looked at Liu Sanniang. “You can’t do it. He can even take the life of a thousand-year-old demon. How can you compare to him? Who will believe your words?”

Liu Sanniang looked at Hu Qiushui. “I can do it.”
