I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

But this was ultimately just speculation and could not be confirmed. Neither Yan Ziming nor Yan Shan ever spoke out about it, so the matter was left unresolved.

Now that their daughter, Mu Mu, has reached the ninth level, she has revealed this news to them, and their guess has finally become a fact.

As a high-ranking official in China, Mu Mu frequently interacts with several supreme beings, so her words are naturally true and absolutely true.

Xia Ziyun couldn't help but sigh, "I never expected... that Zi Mo actually has a connection with the Marshal..."

Seeing that the two seemed a little too excited, Mu Mu quickly reminded them, "Ah, but this matter should still be kept secret. Just let things take their course."

"Alright, what a wonderful 'let nature take its course' approach. We understand. Let the little guy go up and deliver it!"

Mu Bai found Si Mo more and more pleasing to the eye, and the resentment he had felt earlier because of Xia Ziyun's favoritism had completely vanished.

This guy is a real character now!

As Yan Ziming's younger sister, and so cute, she must be very loved by her elders. Yan Shan probably spoils her rotten!

However, the reality was completely different from what they expected...

Si Mo has no relation to Yan Shan, nor is she Yan Zi Mo's sister. She is Ye Qian Xue's mother and Yan Zi Mo's mother-in-law, making her, strictly speaking, Yan Shan's in-law...

Even the most imaginative person probably couldn't have come up with such a complex network of relationships.

"Simo, did you hear that?" Mu Mu said, holding up Simo.

"You actually expect us, the noble ones, to offer gifts to a piece of trash? Aren't you insulting us—"

"When we get back, I'll have Xiao Momo make you cakes every day! Her desserts are so delicious! Even better than the ones here!"

"Then let's reluctantly go and offer him some warmth."

Get it!

Mu Mu revealed a smug smile. As the saying goes, if you want a horse to run, you must first feed it grass. She has now completely determined how to get Si Mo running!

During their conversation, the top families had already presented their gifts, and it was finally the Mu family's turn.

Mu Mu handed the things to Si Mo, "Go upstairs."

"Hmm..."

After swallowing the last bite of cake, Simo, holding a small sandalwood box, walked towards the stage under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Her move startled many people.

Other prominent families send their capable elders up there, but you've gone and sent a little girl who's only thirteen or fourteen years old! Isn't that ridiculous?!

"Wait a minute, that's not right. They sent Yan Ziming's sister up... What kind of signal is that sending?"

"Could it be that after losing Mu Mu, they've hooked up with Yan Ziming?"

"That's possible. I even suspect that the person next to them is Yan Zimo."

When Murong Haiyi, who was on the stage, saw the small figure gradually approaching him, his zombie-like smile froze instantly, the color drained from his face, and he looked like a zombie that had just been taken out of a coffin.

Holy crap! How could this guy be the one to come up here?!

If he hadn't learned Si Mo's identity from Yan Ziming, he might have been able to muster the courage to face her, but...

This is a black calamity!

Knowing that the immortal spirit was coveted by all sorts of demons and monsters, Murong Haiyi raised the alarm for Si Mo to the highest level in his heart.

This is a monster that could throw him into the endless abyss at any moment!

Murong Haixuan, who was standing next to her brother, noticed his unusual behavior. She quietly instructed the backstage staff to dim the lights so that no one could clearly see her brother's face before she stepped forward.

"elder brother!?"

"That little girl is in danger!"

"Danger? But isn't she Yan Ziming's sister? They look exactly alike!"

"You don't understand..."

Murong Haiyi gave a bitter smile. He had originally wanted to slip away, but in the face of the Black Calamity, everything was in vain until he reached the ninth level.

Thinking that the other party hadn't made a move for so long, there shouldn't be any major problems, Murong Haiyi's expression relaxed a lot.

Slowly, Si Mo, who had been demonized in their hearts, walked up to them, and Murong Haiyi and his sister's expressions tightened to the extreme.

"No, here you go."

After tossing the things to Murong Haiyi, Si Mo didn't even look at him properly before turning around and leaving.

Eh?

That's it?!

"call--"

Murong Haiyi felt completely exhausted and handed the sandalwood box to his sister, saying, "There's no need to announce this gift."

"it is good."

The expected spectacular scene did not occur, leaving everyone bewildered. However, their excitement was quickly dispelled by the next activity.

After the major families presented their gifts, it was time for everyone to give their own gifts. Whether it was a group or an individual, anyone could present their own gift.

However, this part is essentially designed for girls.

The daughters of various wealthy and powerful families all had their eyes shining and were holding their chests high, ready to swarm forward and be the first to present a gift to Murong Haiyi, and then have a wonderful encounter with him.

Just then, the door that Mu Mu and the others had been watching suddenly opened, its sound particularly jarring in the otherwise silent hall. A woman with angelic beauty walked out, holding a bouquet of blooming flowers.

Mu Mu's eyelids suddenly twitched wildly: "Little Mo Mo?!"

Chapter Fifty-Two: Eat shit! (This title seems to have been used before...)

The free gift-giving session means that anyone present can offer a gift, regardless of who you are, even if you are an enemy.

Some people said that this step was unnecessary. Can the gift this person gave compare to the gifts that the major families would give for tens of millions?

It's impossible that this was a means for the Murong family to amass wealth, as that seems far too low-level.

The real purpose of setting up this segment is obvious to those who understand, and those who understand naturally wouldn't go up to offer gifts; those who do go up are all girls.

They range from little girls as young as twelve to young women as old as twenty, and they all share the same goal—

That's Murong Haiyi on the stage.

After looking at the group of fierce women, Mu Mu sneered, "This is too clumsy. The gifts they have are not something they could have obtained on their own."

"That's quite normal. Most aristocratic families don't bring out anything good when they give gifts; the really good things are presented at this time."

Xia Ziyun had long seen through the tricks of this group of people; in fact, this phenomenon is quite common in the circles of wealthy and powerful families.

This phenomenon occurs when someone is about to achieve great success or accomplish something significant, provided that you have the ability to do so.

Actually, when the Mu family was arranging a marriage for Mu Mu, they wanted her to do the same thing, but they had no choice but to give up because of Mu Mu's fierce nature.

"Ha...that's why I say this industry is dirty!"

Mu Mu crossed his arms and looked at the group of women and people from various powerful families, his disdain almost overflowing.

She has already abandoned this quagmire, which is even more murky than excrement, but if you ask her if she wants to change this situation, even if she reaches the Heavenly Realm, she cannot do so.

This involves many aspects such as human nature and the essence of society, and too much cannot be accomplished by force.

"Yes...it is dirty, extremely dirty! So dirty that you can't get it clean even if you want to wash it!"

Mu Bai's eyes began to recall past events, remembering everything he had encountered and seen about wealthy and powerful families over the years, and he deeply agreed with Mu Mu's words.

He's already on this pirate ship, and there's no way he can get off for the rest of his life.

.............

After seeing one of the girls off, Murong Haixuan quietly whispered to her brother, "Brother, are you feeling alright?"

"Okay; but I don't understand why she behaved that way. Normally, she shouldn't have..."

Normally, if the Black Calamity sensed the presence of the Immortal Spirit, it should have swallowed him whole, bones and all. But Si Mo not only didn't do that, it treated him like a blade of grass by the roadside, not even glancing at him.

—Fairy spirits are beings born in response to the will of Heaven.

Even the lowest-level zombies would rush headlong into it like moths to a flame, risking their lives. Murong Haiyi had encountered many such cases, but this was truly the first time he had ever seen Si Mo in this situation.

Ah, what an interesting little girl...

Confirming that her brother wasn't just putting on a brave face, Murong Haixuan said with a mischievous grin, "Then good luck! Try your best to marry the girl you like this time!"

"Long-winded!"

boom!

The door, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened with considerable force, drawing the attention of almost everyone in the room.

A figure emerged from behind the gate, dressed in a way that seemed out of place. Yet, everyone's gaze lingered on her stunningly beautiful face, a face that could make up for everything else.

A smart person immediately realized, "Isn't this Yan Zimo, who is famous all over the world?"

"My God, how could she be here!"

"She's holding a bouquet of flowers! Could she also be here—!!!"

"No way! This goddess has also lost her heart to that guy Murong Haiyi?!"
