Reincarnated as the Death Spider Queen, sacrificing Bibi Dong at the start

Qian Renxue looked at Nan Feng, "In addition, Xue Qinghe's performance on Purple Pearl Island was outstanding. Now, Xue Ye has no other choice."

Nan Feng nodded and downed the cold wine in his glass in one gulp: "That's fine then. Now that the overall situation is settled, I won't interfere any further. As for how to completely control Tiandou, that's up to you."

With that, Nan Feng stood up, dusted off his clothes, and prepared to leave.

"You stop!"

Upon seeing this, Qian Renxue suddenly stood up and grabbed his sleeve, "You're leaving already?!"

"Otherwise what?" Nan Feng turned around, his face full of doubt. "In the middle of the night, am I supposed to stay here and keep watch with you?"

"Don't you have anything else to say to me?!" Qian Renxue stared intently at him.

"say what?"

"You were on Purple Pearl Island before, you..." Qian Renxue bit her lip, her eyes filled with barely concealed annoyance and resentment.

"stop."

Nan Feng interrupted her without any politeness, "Speak properly. Don't use this nagging, resentful tone to talk to me. How old are you? A fourteen or fifteen-year-old kid, where did you learn all this nonsense from?"

"Now you're saying I'm still young?!" Qian Renxue retorted angrily, "Back on the island, didn't you keep saying I wasn't young anymore and shouldn't be so childish?!"

"..."

Nan Feng was completely speechless. He pulled his sleeve away from her grasp and said, "Are you going to argue with me like this?"

Qian Renxue gritted her teeth and took several deep breaths before she could barely suppress the anger in her heart.

"What are you planning to do next?" Qian Renxue stared intently into his eyes. "Tell me clearly."

"doing what?"

Nan Feng shrugged and said matter-of-factly, "I've done everything I needed to. The situation is now completely stable, and everything will proceed as planned. At least for the next four or five years, I won't need to intervene anymore."

What else do you want me to do?

"You'd really be that honest?" Qian Renxue asked with a face full of doubt, clearly not believing that this bastard who killed wherever he went would suddenly stop.

What kind of image do I have in your eyes?

Nan Feng looked at her with a puzzled expression. "Am I some kind of fanatic who loves to cause trouble? If it weren't for the need to turn this mess into a better one, I would just want to find a quiet place, lie in the sun, and take a nap. Instead of being a busybody, running around and stirring up trouble for your trivial matters every day."

Chapter 271 I reiterate, I really am just a 100,000-year-old spider!

……

Qian Renxue fell into a long silence as she looked at Nan Feng's self-righteous demeanor.

The only sound inside the hall was the faint rustling of the gauze curtains in the breeze.

After a long while, Qian Renxue took a deep breath, raised her head, and stared intently into Nan Feng's eyes with her cold, clear gaze. She then asked, word by word:

"What... exactly are you?"

Nan Feng was taken aback by this sudden question: "What?"

"I ask you, what exactly are you?!" Qian Renxue emphasized.

Nan Feng raised an eyebrow and rubbed his temples impatiently: "I've emphasized this to you countless times over the years, haven't I?"

"I need a definite, definitive answer!"

Qian Renxue persisted, stepping forward. "That mermaid Douluo from Seagod Island... on Purple Pearl Island, she said a bunch of nonsensical things about you to me! I've thought about it for a long time, and I need to confirm it with you personally!"

Seeing Qian Renxue's persistent expression, Nan Feng sighed helplessly:

"Okay. Then I'll repeat it to you one last time, very seriously."

Nan Feng looked directly into her eyes, his tone solemn.

"I am not your mother!"

"I'm not some special clone created by your mother, nor am I a personality split that occurred after she suffered a traumatic experience!"

"At best, Bibi Dong and I are symbiotic beings whose souls are forcibly bound together due to special reasons. But tracing back to the source, my true form is nothing more than an old spider that has lived for 100,000 years."

Nan Feng shrugged. "Is this answer clear enough, thorough enough?"

Qian Renxue's body trembled slightly. Her beautiful eyes instantly welled up with tears, and her eyes reddened.

"Since you're just a spider..."

Qian Renxue's voice carried an uncontrollable grievance and questioning tone, "Then why did you pretend to be her in the first place?! Why... why were you so good to me?!"

"why?"

Nan Feng chuckled. "At first, I actually hoped to persuade Bibi Dong to take you in and raise you herself while you were still young. I thought that as long as I brainwashed you again and again from a young age and cultivated a deep bond with you, then even if you grew up and learned the truth about Qian Xunji's death in the future, you wouldn't commit any matricide."

"But the problem is, your mother is seriously mentally ill!"

Mentioning this, Nan Feng couldn't help but get angry. "Not only does she not allow me to do that, but she even threatened to turn on me and fight me on the spot because I took the initiative to get close to you and be nice to you!"

"Since she absolutely refused to cooperate, there was no point in me trying to win her over. That's why I suddenly changed my attitude towards you and stopped playing the motherly love and filial piety game. Can you understand this logic?"

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue finally couldn't hold back her tears.

She bit her lip hard, trying not to let the tears fall: "But...but even though you stopped pretending later, and even though you forced me to call you teacher, you...you were still very good to me!"

Nan Feng was speechless for a moment after being choked by her accusations.

He turned his head away, scratching his hair in frustration: "I... I was out of my mind back then, I was just too soft-hearted, okay?!"

"Then what exactly do you take me for?!"

Qian Renxue rushed forward, grabbing Nan Feng's clothes tightly with both hands. She raised her tear-streaked face and demanded a heartbreaking answer.

"An ignorant child? A fool whose feelings you can deceive and manipulate at will?!"

"What did I lie to you about?!"

Nan Feng was also getting annoyed by her unreasonable behavior, and he brushed her hand away.

"How many times did I curse at you to get rid of you?! Ever since Bibi Dong turned against me because of you, how many times have I emphasized that I'm not your mother?! How many times have I told you to get lost and not bother me?!"

"But what did you do?!"

Nan Feng pointed at Qian Renxue's nose, "You insist on clinging to me! You shamelessly stick close to me! What can I do?!"

"Do you think I'd actually kill you?! If I dared to lay a finger on you, your mentally unstable mother would absolutely go insane and try to take me down with her!"

"I can't hit you, and you won't listen to me even if I scold you! What else can I do but try a gentler approach to guide you?!"

Nan Feng took a deep breath, his voice filled with frustration:

"In this matter, I believe I have done enough and tried my best! It's just that you refuse to believe it! It's just that you keep running away from reality!"

"To satisfy your own pitiful, missing maternal love, you've forced me to be a substitute for your mother! That's just your own wishful thinking and projection, how can you blame me for that?!"

Qian Renxue's face turned deathly pale instantly.

But she was still unwilling to give up, and with red eyes, she retorted, "If you didn't want me to misunderstand, why did you have to say those hurtful things to me later? Why did you have to expose the truth again and again? Since you were worried that the woman couldn't lay a hand on me, then you could have just gone along with me, coaxed me, lied to me, and taken advantage of my dependence on you... Wouldn't it have been easier for you to control me?!"

Are you crazy?!

Nan Feng looked at Qian Renxue as if she were an idiot, utterly exasperated by her thought process.

"How many more times do I have to say it?!"

"I am one of the murderers who conspired with your mother to kill your father! This is an irreconcilable feud!"

“Bibi Dong is your biological mother, the one who carried you for ten months and gave birth to you. So no matter how vicious she is, you can subconsciously empathize with her, and in the end, because of blood ties and kinship, you will not have the heart to kill her.”

"But what am I?!"

"I'm just a spider that's a hundred thousand years old! If I really did what you say, deceiving and taking advantage of you with false maternal love all this time!"

"When you grow up and learn the whole truth someday, how will you see me?!"

"You'll feel utterly disgusted! You'll feel extreme shame and rage for having called a spider, the one who killed your father, your mother for so many years! At that point, you'll absolutely do anything to kill me and wash away your shame!"

“I saw this from the very beginning. I don’t want to play this disgusting, melodramatic love-hate game with you in the future! That’s why I chose to end it all right away and make everything clear to you!”

Nan Feng glared at her, exasperated. "And now you're turning around and questioning me about why I didn't disgust you or lie to you back then?! Do you really have some kind of masochistic streak?!"

"But I've told you that so many times!"

Qian Renxue raised her voice, which trembled slightly, "My father's matter... I don't care about it anymore! I promised you that I would never seek revenge for him, and I would never bring it up again! Why won't you believe me?!"

"Why don't you believe me?!"

Nan Feng's brows furrowed tightly. "You think I can believe you?! Do you think this is child's play, that a few promises can smooth over a deadly feud?"

"Qian Xunji is your biological father! Even if you have no feelings for him now, or even despise him because of what he has done, and truly don't care whether he lives or dies, what about the future?"

"If you want to wrest power back from Bibi Dong in the Spirit Hall in the future, no matter how disgusted you are with Qian Xunji, you will inevitably bring up Qian Xunji's death again and make a big deal out of it for political reasons! For the sake of gaining a legitimate claim in the Elder Hall and the Hall of Worship!!"

"You might even go so far as to try to overturn Bibi Dong's case in order to undermine her prestige! You might even portray your mother as a wicked woman who murdered her husband! Only in that way can you occupy the absolute moral high ground in the power struggles within the Spirit Hall!"

Chapter 272 Nan ​​Feng: Don't lie to me, I don't fall for that melodrama! Qian Renxue: I understand, Teacher's illness isn't...

……

Nan Feng stared intently at Qian Renxue, "When the time comes for us to completely tear off our masks for supreme power, as the heir of the Angel Family, will you let go of me, the accomplice who conspired to kill your father?! Whether it's out of blood ties or out of cold, hard reality, you will inevitably turn against me without hesitation in the future!"

"Ask yourself honestly, in the face of power, how can you expect me to believe your nonchalant statement that you won't seek revenge?!"

Nan Feng sneered, "I'm not one of those idiots who would be completely devoted to someone just because of a few sweet words or vows of eternal love! I've seen countless betrayals, schemes, and backstabbings!"

"When it comes to matters concerning my life and fortune, I wouldn't dare to believe even the slightest potential danger! Nor could I!"

"But……"

Qian Renxue gritted her teeth and questioned, "But I need to fight that woman for power and profit, wasn't that what you taught me step by step?!"

"Who told me not to cry and whine like a complaining woman all day long, only knowing how to expect others to love me?! Who taught me to hold power in my own hands?! Who taught me all those treacherous schemes and the dark side of human nature without any disguise?!"

Qian Renxue's eyes were red, her face full of resentment. "You're the one who taught me to be this kind of person who'll do anything to achieve my goals. Now you're turning around and using the excuse that I might scheme against you for power as an excuse to blame me?!"

"Ah!"

Nan Feng laughed in anger, "Do you really expect me to treat you like Qian Xunji treated your mother back then, pampering you like a naive and innocent canary that knows nothing?!"

"I raised you without knowing the dangers of the world, and now you've grown up like an idiot, only to be swindled out of everything in the vortex of power, leaving not even a bone fragment, and then you come back blaming me for not raising you properly?! As if you're the one who's wronged and innocent, and I'm the one who's shameless?!"
