"What proof do you have that you are my mother...?"

Estia didn't actually believe it; she preferred to believe it was an illusion, and that Neytissa had simply transformed into her mother's appearance.

But at the same time, a sliver of hope lingered in her heart—if it were true…

“The power of bloodline does not lie; we can recognize each other using dragon blood.”

Neytisa put Estia back on the ground, then took out a dagger and cut her arm, letting the dragon blood flow from the wound, and then placed it in her palm.

Estia did the same thing, dripping her blood onto Neytissa's palm, and then saw the two streams of blood merge together and begin to emit a dazzling light.

"I... I still don't quite believe it."

Even with the facts laid bare before her, Esther still couldn't completely trust Netissa. What if she had achieved the effect through some special means?

"They've already recognized each other with dragon blood..."

“You are stronger than me, so if you use illusions, I won’t be able to see through them.”

"..."

Neytisa looked at Esther shaking her head, a look of pity on her face: "I wasn't by your side when you were little, which has caused you to always feel insecure, right..."

She was right. Esther spent almost the entire first half of her life in solitude, never daring to trust anyone easily, and always feeling insecure.

At this moment, Ye Qingxian said from the side, "If you really are Esther's mother, then you should have made your identity clear when you first appeared."

"I just wanted to tease her."

Neytisa stroked Estia's head gently and said softly, "Estia, do you believe me?"

"Weren't you dead?"

"Who told you that? Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"No...but, but the Dragon Kingdom was destroyed, it's rumored that..."

Estya fell silent. She hadn't actually witnessed her father and mother's deaths because she was too young to remember them at that time.

Inside the secluded Dragon Abyss, there was nothing buried beneath the tombstones she erected for her parents; they served only as memorials.

Estia had once believed in the possibility that her parents were still alive, but for a thousand years, nearly a thousand years, she sent her men to find the truth behind the destruction of the Dragon Kingdom, as well as information about her father and mother, but to no avail.

If they are still alive, where have they gone?

Estia, who was released back to the ground by Netissa, was freed and ran towards Ye Qingxian with her short legs. Netissa did not stop her.

Ye Qingxian immediately hugged Estya tightly, not knowing what kind of magic Netissa had used to turn Estya into a child.

Now, all that remains of young Estella is her cuteness; she's like a doll when held in someone's arms.

Neytissa also came over, and Ye Qingxian immediately became wary and wanted to back away.

“Estella, your mother has her own things to do, so she hasn’t seen you in the past thousand years. I cherish this opportunity today.”

Ling only gave her one day. Neytisa actually regretted it a little. She shouldn't have acted tough back then. If she had known, she would have asked that short and ugly guy for a year.

But just as Ling said, Neytisa is extremely proud and arrogant. Once she says something, there's no going back. If she says one day, then it's one day.

"What's wrong with your tail? Why is it covered in star crystals?"

Estia's tail is covered in silver dragon scales, while Netissa's tail is covered in star crystals.

"Don't worry about this kind of thing, it won't affect our relationship."

"Are we actually enemies now?"

Estia remembered that guy, Chu Xing. If the Disaster Star World wanted to invade the Faya World, then all the beings of Faya could be considered enemies of the Disaster Star World.

"I guess so, but I really am your mother. I gave birth to you."

Estia remained silent for a long time before finally erupting in anger: "What exactly happened back then?! Why are you still alive?! Why did it take you so long to find me?!"

She bared her teeth and claws in Ye Qingxian's arms, waving her arms angrily, and even accidentally hit Ye Qingxian on the head.

"Oh my...so cute."

"This Aunt Long, whose name I don't even know how to address," Ye Qingxian couldn't help but say, "Stop joking around with Esther. Can't you see she's very angry right now?"

"Ahem... I knew this would happen. My beloved daughter would definitely hate me after the initial surprise."

Neytissa knew very well that she was not a responsible mother, and her departure was a deep wound to Esther.

Now that she's shamelessly coming to see Estia, she's already mentally prepared.

Section 204, page 192: Remember her face.

"Estella, calm down a bit..."

Ye Qingxian hugged the shrunken Estya tightly in her arms. If she relaxed even slightly, Estya would probably pounce on Neytisa.

At the same time, she was well aware that this pounce was not the kind of pounce a daughter would make on her mother, but a very aggressive pounce.

"Let her vent her emotions freely, don't suppress them anymore."

Just as Neytisa had initially guessed, after revealing her identity, Esther's emotions, which had been suppressed for thousands of years, were all released. Neytisa didn't even dare to think about what Esther had thought about and how she had gotten through those countless days and nights.

Estia spoke up at this moment: "I've imagined what my father and mother looked like countless times. Now that I see you, you are indeed just as I imagined, every move you make is so warm, but..."

Large tears slid down her cheeks. She had indeed cried all her tears during her childhood, but at this moment, facing her biological mother, her tears flowed like a flood.

“I’m listening, Estia, go on.”

"But you'll be leaving soon, won't you? You won't even tell me what you're doing, or explain why you disappeared for a thousand years."

Estia wasn't stupid; she knew that her current happiness was fleeting, and that damned jinx had never brought anything good to her since the word came into being.

Neytissa sighed: "Yes, you're right. I'm not telling you anything today."

"Then what do you want from me? Just to tell me you're still alive?"

"I...I missed you, so I came to see you."

Neytisa's tail drooped listlessly. How could she bear to see Esther so sad? But she also knew in her heart that the disappearance of her and her husband was a significant part of the reason for Esther's sadness.

Ye Qingxian felt somewhat awkward being sandwiched between the mother and daughter, but she didn't want the atmosphere to continue being so sad. The person she was holding in her arms was her lover, and she couldn't bear to see him so heartbroken.

"Netissa... Auntie, can you turn Esther back to normal?"

Ye Qingxian had some doubts. Was Esther crying so hard because of her younger appearance?

"I'm sorry, I just wanted to tease Esther at first."

Neytisa immediately released the transformation spell on Esther, and the young silver dragon girl instantly transformed back into her original teenage form. Because she was still being held in Ye Qingxian's arms, she and Ye Qingxian fell to the ground together.

"I can't carry the big Estia very well."

Ye Qingxian joked while wiping away the tears from the corners of Esther's eyes.

"When did you two fall in love?" Neytissa asked from the side.

Although she knew it wasn't the right time to ask such a question directly, Neytissa couldn't resist her curiosity.

"Not long, just a few months."

Estya answered the question, looking up at Netissa: "How long will you stay?"

I will be leaving tomorrow morning.

"Oh."

Estia shook her head, suppressing the sadness in her heart with an extremely terrifying willpower. The expression on her face changed from gloomy to sunny, and she even put on a smile.

"Mom! Welcome home!"

Ye Qingxian and Neytisa were both taken aback by the cheerful tone.

Neytissa couldn't help but say, "Don't force yourself..."

"I didn't force anything. I really miss you all. You're only staying for one day, right? Then let's not waste time on meaningless discussions."

Estya got up from the ground, then helped Ye Qingxian up, telling her with her eyes that she was alright.

"Where's my dad? Why didn't he come?"

"He's been busier than me lately."

That's a real shame.

As Estia said this, she was memorizing Netissa's appearance and voice. This silver dragon woman was her biological mother, whom she remembered meeting for the first time, and she would never forget her.

Neytissa felt a sharp pain in her heart; she was filled with guilt, but unfortunately, she had no other choice.

"There's a banquet going on in the Netherworld Dragon Abyss today, Mom's come back just in time."

Estia had planned to throw a party to celebrate the disappearance of the annoying player, but now she could use it to entertain her mother.

Without any hesitation, Esther rushed over and took her mother's arm, saying to Ye Qingxian, "Little Ye, I hope you won't be jealous or feel neglected. Mother can only be with me for one day, so I..."

Before she could finish speaking, Ye Qingxian interrupted her: "Idiot, what kind of person do you take me for?"

Although Ye Qingxian was indeed jealous when she first saw Neytisa holding Esther, it would be a real problem if she were still jealous after learning that Neytisa was Esther's mother.

Estya had not seen her mother for a thousand years. Now that her mother had appeared and could only stay with her for one day, Ye Qingxian understood that every minute and second of this day was extremely precious.

After witnessing Estia's dragon-like features in real life, Ye Qingxian dispelled her previous misunderstanding that Estia was a player and learned that the thousand years had been Estia's personal experience.

Ye Qingxian always wanted to be a gentle and considerate girlfriend so that she wouldn't be unreasonable and waste their relationship.

"Aunt Neytisa, and Estia, you two can continue your conversation. I won't join in on the family topic."

"As Esther's future wife, what is there that you need to avoid?" Neytisa retorted.

However, after Estia gently poked her body with her dragon horn, Netissa changed her mind again: "Okay... but I'll make time to talk to you. If your relationship can continue, then we can be considered future family."

"Then I'll help prepare the banquet."

Ye Qingxian felt it was a real pity that her mother couldn't attend the banquet.

Chu Jinlan hadn't been online for the past few days. The last time Ye Qingxian went to her mother's room after leaving the virtual reality device, she found her mother wasn't there, which made her a little worried. However, she received a message from her mother this morning saying that she had already logged on and was doing something in another area.

Ye Qingxian wondered if her mother had gone to prepare a gift for her because her eighteenth birthday was coming up.

Although such imagination aligns with emotional perception, Ye Qingxian also knows that her mother is not the kind of person who would waste several days doing such a thing.
