The boss is back and she doesn’t pretend to be a fake daughter anymore

Chapter 1044: 6 years ago, when everything started

Traveling through time is risky after all, so Jiang Xuxu informed Wenren Qiqi, Jiang Huai and others in advance.

Although Wenren Qiqi and Jiang Huai were worried, since Xuxu had made the decision, they also expressed their support.

Then the soul tree is opened.

The eight elders of the Wenren clan set up a magic circle around the soul tree. Jiang Xuxu, Chu Beihe and Sanshu stood under the tree in the circle.

Jiang Xuxu lightly touched the soul tree with his palm and connected to the origin of the soul tree with his mind.

The moment she came into contact with the original power of the soul tree, she sent Chu Beihe and Sanshu into her realm of thought.

The field opens up.

The four-elephant barrier opens.

The soul bell on the soul tree vibrated, creating invisible ripples that penetrated the field and created a channel in the field that broke through time and space.

Jiang Xuxu, Chu Beihe and Sanshu looked at each other and finally stepped into the passage.

And this is just the beginning.

Outside the domain, Wenren Baiyi continuously sent demonic power into the soul tree. To ensure that they could accurately reach the time and space they wanted to go, there must be a force to support the channel to continue to extend forward.

Wenren Qiqi was watching from the side. As Wenren Baiyi's demonic power was rapidly consumed, the luster of her originally snow-white long hair seemed to fade away little by little, and her skin also aged visibly.

Wenren Qiqi's heart trembled, and just as she was about to ask to stop it, she was stopped by Wenren Jiuxiao who was standing beside her.

"Don't disturb her, she won't do anything bad to Xuxu."

Wenren Qiqi felt mixed emotions.

She was not worried that Wenren Baiyi would harm Xuxu again, but she did not expect that she would consume so much of her own magical power for Xuxu.

But think about it, opening a passage back to the past is not that easy even with the power of the Soul Tree itself.

But she didn't understand why Wenren Baiyi was willing to do this.

Wenren Baiyi also gave an answer to this question after successfully sending Jiang Xuxu and others' consciousness into the channel.

she says,

"Searching for the Phoenix Spirit is of no importance to me and the entire Wenren clan, but this trip may be her chance."

After Jiang Xuxu successfully transformed into the Nine-Tailed Fox, he was unable to sense any breakthrough. Wenren Baiyi thought of various ways to solve this problem.

Going back in time to look for an opportunity to obtain the Ten-Tails was one of the methods she had thought of.

I just haven't made up my mind yet.

It wasn't until Jiang Xuxu brought it up that Wenren Baiyi knew the time had come.

Jiang Xuxu's opportunity was indeed in the past.

That is why the eight elders of the Wenren clan were willing to help.

Wenren Qiqi was surprised that Wenren Baiyi would give such an answer, but also not surprised.

After all, the only thing that could make her mother waste so much of her demonic power and mind is the future of the Wenren lineage.

She should have known.

But she still thanked her sincerely, "Thank you, mother."

Wenren Baiyi had his back to her at this time, and only slightly tilted his head, so he couldn't see his face or emotions clearly, and only said in a calm voice,

"I'm not doing this for her, and certainly not for you, so you don't need to thank me."

When Wenren Qiqi heard this, he felt suffocated and held his breath, saying,

"I'm thanking you. If you don't want to hear it, just pretend you didn't hear it."

Wenren Bai Yisi snorted softly.

Wenren Qiqi could vaguely see her skin slightly showing signs of aging when she tilted her head and hummed softly. As if noticing her gaze, Wenren Baiyi turned her head away.

He raised his hand and stepped into his own realm of thoughts. Before he disappeared, he only left a sentence,

"I will be in seclusion from today. No one is allowed to bother me."

After saying this, the whole person disappeared without a trace.

Wenren Qiqi pursed her lips and lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking.

Jiang Huai turned his attention back to the soul tree. Although he had awakened his demon veins and transformed into his own soul bell, his soul bell had not rang again in the past two years.

Jiang Huai didn't have any thoughts about this. He had more important things to do.

And now, there is one more important thing.

That is--

Wait for Xuxu, Chu Beihe and others to return.

……

On the other side, Wenren Baiyi, who had already entered the realm and restored her original appearance, suddenly realized that she had forgotten to tell them.

She just used up her demonic power to extend a space-time channel for Jiang Xuxu and the others, not three thousand years ago.

But, six thousand years ago.

Six thousand years ago, is when it all began.

*

The feeling of consciousness traveling through time and space is not pleasant.

Jiang Xuxu felt his consciousness was in a state of chaos, and when he opened his eyes again, he felt his whole body was cold.

The biting cold wind blew in from the window, and Jiang Xuxu was lying on the cold floor, staring at the female ghost who was floating in the air in front of her and staring at her.

"W-Who are you? Why are you in my body?"

The female ghost, or to be more precise, the previous owner of this body, Feng Zeze, was looking at her timidly, as if she was a little afraid.

Because it is the consciousness that travels across time, in order to avoid falling into this world and becoming wandering souls, the Soul Tree will send their consciousness into the newly dead body, which means rebirth.

So Jiang Xuxu was not surprised that he could see the soul of the original owner of this body as soon as he opened his eyes.

After regaining consciousness, he sat up with difficulty and said,

"I'm here to look for someone, and I need to borrow your body temporarily. As a replacement, I can fulfill an unfulfilled wish for you."

When Feng Xixi heard her words, she first widened her eyes slightly, and then seemed to think of something, her eyes became slightly lonely.

"My body isn't very good...why don't you borrow someone else's body? A better one."

While Feng Zhezhe was talking, Jiang Xuxu had already quickly cast a soul-fixing spell on himself, making his soul more closely aligned with this body. Then he turned around and asked Feng Zhezhe,

"What did you say?"

Feng Zhizhi: ...

"No, it's nothing."

From Feng Zeze's mouth, Jiang Xuxu roughly understood the current situation of this body.

Feng Zeze was originally the daughter of the Feng family in the capital. However, she was maliciously switched when she was young, which led to her living away from home since she was young. She was only accidentally discovered and brought back by the Feng family three months ago.

Although the Feng family brought the person back, they were unwilling to send the fake daughter away, because the fake daughter Feng Xixi was the only person who had received a response from the Phoenix in the past hundred years.

If nothing unexpected happens, she will most likely enter the palace and become queen in the future.

It is said that the ancestor of the Feng family once raised a phoenix and claimed that he could sense the phoenix. Feng was even the first empress of the founding emperor. However, with the change of political situation, no one in the Feng family could sense the location of the phoenix in the next hundred years.

Therefore, Feng Xixi's existence is definitely a huge temptation for the Feng family, which has been lonely for a hundred years.

The Feng family could not give up the fake daughter no matter what. In order to prevent her identity from being questioned, after taking Feng Zhenzhen, the real daughter, home, the Feng family only claimed to the outside world that she was an orphan from a distant cousin on her maternal side.

Since entering the mansion, Feng Xixi has not been welcomed by her family and has been maliciously bullied by the servants. This time, she accidentally said at the banquet that she and Feng Xixi were born on the same day, which was considered a deliberate hint...

The head of the Feng family personally ordered that she be locked up in this yard and not given any food or charcoal for three days, causing her to freeze to death in this winter.

Jiang Xuxu didn't expect that it was another fate of a real or fake daughter. She listened to Feng Zeze's story quietly and only asked her,

"Do you want revenge?"

Feng Xixi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes. However, due to his cowardly nature, he dared not even think about revenge after death, so he could only pin his hopes on this foreign ghost in front of him.

"Will you help me get revenge?"

Jiang Xuxu shook his head.

"Although I promised to help you fulfill a wish, revenge involves cause and effect, so you have to come in person."

Feng Zhezhe lowered his head and floated away, "B-but I can't."

Jiang Xuxu glanced at her and said,

"It's very simple. I'll teach you."
