Chapter 1992 - 166: Bottom Line
The most critical point of suspicion is—why did she not act against the Third Elder? Why did she not deal with the Third Elder?
It’s not just the Third Elder. Previously, the Second Elder was bouncing around smeared the Old Lady and Yixuan’s reputation, and it was the same.
The Old Lady might be angry with these two, but she truly tolerates these old guys. Otherwise, how could she allow others to sleep soundly beside her throne? A mountain cannot accommodate two tigers; if it’s not tolerance, how can we explain Old Lady Qin’s ’benevolence’?
Yixuan fell silent for a moment. Finally, the two exchanged glances.
"Ah..."
The road ahead is long and far, it seems we’ll have to visit Old Lady Qin later to at least understand her attitude first.
...
No time to lose, thoughts turned into actions.
Although it was already dark and nightfall had descended. Old Lady Qin’s attitude was extremely important to Dong Huiying and Liang Yixuan. It would indirectly affect their subsequent actions and decisions, so the two immediately set off for the inn.
Halfway there, Dong Huiying asked, "Yixuan... if the Old Lady disagrees with us acting against the Third Elder, then what will you do?"
Yixuan turned his head to look at Dong Huiying: "Is my wife worried?"
Dong Huiying was silent for two seconds, then earnestly nodded.
"To be honest, I met the Old Lady because of you, and I really respect the Old Lady, but compared to you, there is still a layer separating me from the Old Lady. In terms of relationship, proximity cannot compare to yours and the Old Lady’s. So my attitude is, for the sake of the Old Lady, before things are clear, I can restrain myself and keep silent, but!"
Her expression was very firm.
"If it turns out that the one who secretly instructed Lin Huang and the others to poison us was truly the Third Elder... then, I will show no mercy! This involves my limits, I will not tolerate it."
However, doing so would likely create a gap between the Old Lady and Yixuan, which is not something Dong Huiying wishes to see. So she is now somewhat caught in a dilemma.
But after all, her own child’s vested scale tips the balance.
Moreover, if we talk carefully about this incident, Little Wuwang and Little Star are both implicated, the main target was Old Lady Qin, not the two young kids.
Yixuan remained quiet for a long time.
"Wu Wang is my son, Little Star, he will call me father in the future, is also my son. Although nominally I’m Grandma Qin’s adopted son, we’ve always interacted as if we were generations apart, and I truly regard Grandma Qin as my elder and family. So..."
"This incident, for me, involves threefold limits."
After Yixuan finished these words, he stopped talking, but Dong Huiying understood what Yixuan meant.
The so-called threefold limits pertain to Yixuan, and these threefold limits refer to three people. The Old Lady, Little Wuwang, and Little Star.
If any of these three are harmed, Yixuan absolutely cannot bear it, let alone all three together.
Dong Huiying sighed deeply.
"Speaking of which, the Old Lady said to me a few days ago that a kind mother often spoils her children. I think she was describing my feminine kindness, and now I can only sincerely hope the Old Lady is decisive. When the time comes to cut, let it be cut, or else chaos will ensue."
After finishing their conversation, the two continued on their journey.
In the past, Dong Huiying was born with Innate Divine Strength, but later due to the Resurgence phenomenon, her Divine Power vanished.
