Yun Qingying's mother, Mrs. Jiang, is in a similar situation.
At that time, Chu Wu Ji could explain to them calmly because Chu Wu Ji could not feel those real emotions. He was just temporarily acting as their brain when they were calm and rational, giving some considerations when they were not affected by emotions.
"...I was just wondering if there's something wrong with me being so ordinary with people and worrying about getting involved with them?"
Chu Wuji once again mentioned the days when he was young and traveled around with his godmother Bai Sujin.
But this time, I’m not talking about what I saw and heard along the way, nor about happy things, but about some of my earliest doubts.
"I've observed and wondered why my mother always dresses like a ghost, her white dress fluttering and never looking dirty. How dare she, a weak woman, walk alone in the mountains and forests, without the strength to even tie a chicken? Isn't she afraid of being attacked by wild beasts?"
There are actually many similar doubts that Chu Wuji has observed and noticed. He has asked Bai Sujin about them before, and even asked about his mother's past experiences.
However, the godmother avoided the question at the time and was unwilling to mention it, so Chu Wuji gradually stopped asking.
After all, his godmother has been very good to him. Apart from not mentioning some things, her care and companionship are real.
You can't deny Bai Sujin's concern just because she didn't mention a few things, right?
"...It seems that because of this, I have unknowingly developed the habit of not asking questions.
After a long time, I couldn't tell whether I was protecting myself, avoiding the sadness of meeting and parting by chance, or I was worried that asking too much would hurt others.
If others don't ask, I won't ask. I have to understand other people's difficulties and not hurt others because of my curiosity and gossip.
Tushan Yourong listened and vaguely understood the problem, but she did not rush to raise it. Instead, she stroked his face with a heart-to-heart talk and asked:
"What's going on in that young man's mind that makes him think he needs to change himself?"
Chu Wuji paused and said with a wry smile:
"I was just thinking, if I had picked out one of the many days and nights I've spent with my mother and forcefully questioned her about the truth, I could have learned the truth about her being a white snake sooner, and dispelled her concerns sooner, letting her know that I'm not afraid of the demon race..."
Wouldn't we have avoided the hassle and embarrassment we have today?"
...and was thinking about the white snake again.
The graceful and charming fox girl sighed softly, and deliberately dragged out her tone: "Alas——"
Chu Wuji looked at the giant fox fairy in confusion, and then he realized that her tail had surrounded her. However, he did not care, but said seriously:
"Fairy Tushan, please don't make fun of me on this matter. I really can't make up my mind..."
"There's nothing to laugh at here. I just feel sorry for the white snake demon that killed my young master."
Chu Wuji couldn't stand others saying bad things about his godmother. He was about to open his mouth to defend himself when the fox girl covered his mouth with her jade hand and said lightly:
"Listen patiently to what I have to say. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Now that things have come to this, Tushan Yourong has to expose Bai Sujin's "true face", as she has been hiding it from her own children.
If you have only raised it for a few years and have some concerns, that is understandable. But why are you still worried after it has grown so big?
Tushan Yourong's previous mention of the underworld was actually hinting to him that there was no such thing as "perfect merit and being among the immortals".
But Chu Wuji didn't hear it.
"Bai Sujin has been lying to you about two things until now. It's a real lie, not a cover-up."
Chu Wuji looked doubtful, but still said, "Please ask Fairy Tushan for an explanation."
"First, the 'little aunt' you mentioned is absolutely false. I am a member of the fox clan, and even my cultivation path is almost at the end. How come I have never heard of the term 'instinctive consciousness'?"
"what?"
Chu Wuji was stunned, but Tushan Yourong didn't care whether he was stunned or not, as long as he was not distracted and was still listening to what she was saying.
"The second thing is 'complete merit and virtue, and be ranked among the immortals.' In today's world, there is no such thing as an immortal class. Everyone cultivates their own great path and establishes their own Taoist tradition."
"Huh? But, Fairy Tushan, didn't you say there's a fairy official called the King of Hell?"
"That's true, but the current Yama Kings are of average cultivation. If it was a new Yama King who had only been in office for two years, perhaps the young master would be able to bully him by relying on his energy. Even an old Yama King who has reached the 'retired state' would have to show respect to your mother, Bai Sujin."
Tushan Yourong had never seen Bai Sujin, and her body was stolen by the Scorpion Demon, but by making indirect inferences, she could make a rough guess.
The merits and luck on Chu Wuji's body, and the lingering scent of lovemaking in the waterfall pool...all of these can reveal how powerful Bai Sujin is.
Tushan Yourong didn't mention these things before, mainly because she was too lazy to say it. As they were all great demons, there was no need to interfere with other great demons taking care of their children.
Of course, to be honest, there are also differences between the great monsters. Tushan Yourong is not bragging, her strength when she was alive was much stronger than Bai Sujin.
"......Ah?" Chu Wuji was dumbfounded and didn't know how to express himself.
He thought that after talking with his aunt, he had completely understood his mother's difficulties and good intentions - his mother was also worried about separation, and was also worried that her son was afraid of the demon clan, which created a gap in the mother-son relationship.
How come after listening to Fairy Tushan's explanation, there are still so many secrets that he doesn't know?!
"Where did that aunt come from? She really knows a lot about my mother and me!"
Chu Wuji's face was serious, not because he was angry, but because he could no longer even show a confused expression and could only remain stiff.
His question really stumped Tushan Yourong. How could he know who his aunt was...
However, assuming that this aunt was a temporarily possessed soul, how could she just make up a reason to make Chu Wuji call her aunt?
"She must really be your aunt, Bai Sujin's sister, otherwise she wouldn't know so much about you and Bai Sujin."
"...My aunt said that my mother will appear in spirit form six months after she enters the immortal class. What's going on?"
"They should come to visit you then, so you can just lie there and do nothing. They will show up in half a year. Of course, I don't know why I would do such a thing."
Tushan Yourong shrugged helplessly. She was puzzled by the White Snake Demon's behavior, but she didn't think it was unnecessary. There must be a hidden story behind it.
Of course, it is also possible that it was a misunderstanding at first, but in order to explain the misunderstanding, another misunderstanding was brought up, one after another, and in the end the original situation could not be analyzed clearly.
The only thing that was certain was that this aunt had no ill intentions and even gave him good fortune. It was unknown how many years it would take to accumulate such strong good fortune.
......etc!
Is it possible that these two sisters went through so much trouble simply to pass on their good fortune and luck to him? No one wants to see their child die before them, right?
But due to the moral education of the human race, some things really cannot be explained clearly, and we have to lie... It doesn't sound good to say this, we have to be worldly-wise!
The fox girl was very grateful that she almost accidentally caused other trouble in order to expose the lie.
She stopped short of delving into the issue and returned to the original topic:
“That’s why I said that it was Bai Sujin who concealed the past, which caused my young master to be always worried and unwilling to get close to others.
"Young Master, you keep your distance from the people closest to you, so how can you get close to others?"
Chu Wuji found it difficult to refute, and he felt that the big fox fairy was right. He subconsciously wanted to look elsewhere, but found that several fluffy tails wrapped the surroundings tightly.
Now it feels like the two of them are having a heart-to-heart talk under the covers.
"I understand, Fairy Tushan. Just temper your body normally now. When they officially appear in half a year, I will ask about my mother's past."
Unexpectedly, he felt that his cognition had been overturned and he should have been confused and at a loss, but he found that he was very calm at the moment.
Perhaps he knew that his mother and his suspected aunt were both hiding somewhere safely and were not dead, and that they both loved him and planned to meet him.
Although his understanding of the situation has been updated, what Chu Wuji has to do has not changed.
Track down the Scorpion Demon, practice cultivation, and wait for mother and aunt to appear.
The charming woman with snow-white hair and fox eyes finally revealed her cunning demeanor again. During the conversation just now, her pair of pink and tender arms had already wrapped around Chu Wuji's neck, and she had unknowingly held him in her arms.
She showed concern and asked:
"Young Master, there is a question you need to consider now. Six months from now, when you really meet Bai Sujin again, will you still be brave enough to ask her?
Do you think that since we've already met again, it doesn't matter if you don't ask, and it's better to have less trouble than more, and when they leave you again one day, you will remember the lesson you learned today?"
Chu Wuji really couldn't be sure and couldn't be sure of his answer.
He wanted to change immediately because he felt that this indifference that he had developed unintentionally had caused a lot of unnecessary trouble.
But if he reunited with his godmother and the troubles were gone, he really wouldn't bother to ask any more questions.
"What should I do?"
"Young Master, you need to practice. Find someone you're close to, and once you're already close, try to get even closer to her and correct your bad habits."
The charming and seductive fox girl guides him with tenderness and kindness.
"I have no relatives around me. My mother is not here, and my aunt is not here either..." Chu Wuji vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but he was already used to Tushan Yourong's gentle voice, so he dispelled his concerns.
"I can be this young master's practice partner. After all, the one and a half months aren't over yet, so what's wrong with being his temporary godmother? And he wants to ask about my past!"
Chu Wuji actually felt that these words were extremely familiar. He felt that many people had said similar things to him, asking him to call her mother...
In the past, Chu Wuji would always refuse politely, but this time, he was very hesitant.
Temporary godmother, seems reasonable!
It is also important to practice being proactive towards those close to you and correct your current habit of coldness!
Godmother Bai Sujin has her concerns and is unwilling to speak, so as her son, I should take the initiative to open her heart and ask her carefully!
Now he has a kindhearted Heavenly Fox Goddess to practice with him, helping him to break the ice built up in his heart. There is no reason to refuse.
"Tushanxian..."
Chu Wuji was just about to agree and express his gratitude when he saw that the mysterious witch dress on Tushan Yourong's beautiful body had turned into the "ruby pendant bellyband with attack speed enhancement" that he had seen during the day.
He choked, forgetting what he wanted to ask, and said subconsciously:
"Fairy Tushan, didn't you say it would only change if you bought it? Otherwise it would feel like it was stolen?"
The fox girl said in a gentle voice:
"Wearing it out and showing it off is problematic. I only tried it on once and won't change it again. How can that be considered stealing?"
It is well-founded and cannot be refuted.
Chu Wuji only realized at this moment that he was so close to the big fox. When did she pull me into her arms?
He didn't notice that a little fox condensed by magic quietly appeared behind him, silently fanning the flames, holding its big tail and trying to fan Chu Wuzhi.
Tushan Yourong hooked her arm around his neck, worry in her eyes:
"Young Master, why don't you ask? If you don't ask, my interest will be gone~"
However, she did not press on blindly. She controlled the pace and continued:
"If you're not used to calling someone godmother, then call me Goddess Sky Fox for now. Besides, the young master has revealed all his inner thoughts. If you don't ask back, you'll be the one who suffers the consequences!"
Chu Wuji agreed with this. They had been chatting for so long that he almost forgot the beginning of this conversation. He wanted to know about Tushan Yourong's past and was worried that a month and a half would pass in a flash!
"Tianhu Niang... Niang, I want to know about your past experiences."
"You can't hesitate. That aunt and the young master have such a close relationship. How can you confront her and ask her questions?"
The fox girl's voice was so charming that it made people's bones go weak. It was obvious that she wanted Chu Wuji to have the same joyful intercourse that had happened in the waterfall pool.
Chu Wuji heard this, and a wave of anger spread in his heart, but his ability to spoil the fun was also steadily exerted. He said puzzledly:
"Goddess Sky Fox, why are you suddenly like this... Are you worried that no one will take care of the little foxes? Even if the agreed time is over, I will still go to look after them regularly."
Tushan Yourong was stunned. She suspected that her magic had disappeared, but when she turned her head to look behind Chu Wuzhi, she saw that the little fox was still shaking its big tail hard, fanning it so hard that it was almost smoking!
There is no way the spell has disappeared.
She smiled, radiant and captivating, her looks alone surpassing countless charms. She said seriously:
"I just wanted to do this, but I won't do this for a group of unrelated little foxes! If you want to know the reason, you have to ask it yourself! It's a pity that my interest is almost gone, alas..."
"I'll do it, I'll do it! Goddess Sky Fox, please keep a little interest!" Chu Wuji said hurriedly.
Chapter 90: Pressing into the Cave of the Sky Fox Goddess
Let's talk about the years when Tushan Yourong was walking around.
The fox clan prospers, and each branch and clan is very prosperous, spread across many places in the world.
This is not the case with a race like the human race, whose reproductive capacity is incredible in the eyes of the demon race.
The fox clan's former glory was due to the many beautiful Feng Shui sites, mountains, rivers, streams, and blessed caves, all of which were controlled by the fox clan.
The world supports all races, and the fox clan can be seen in nearly half of the Feng Shui treasures.
The demon tribe sometimes makes sense, but more often they use force to support their right to speak, rather than how thought-provoking their words are.
Being able to occupy so many precious areas means that there are endless powerful monsters among the fox clan, who have established themselves in that place by relying on their strength.
