Chapter 728: Reward

“Tong Yan is very beautiful.” I couldn’t help but blurt out.

Ma Ji smiled. “Thank you.”

Her expression softened. “Under my efforts, Tong Yan’s blood is the closest to Phoenix Blood. Thus, she has also won Tong Hui’s heart. To control us, I couldn’t admit to her the truth. He placed Tong Yan under the Yan Family. For this, he killed a child of the Yan family so that Tong Yan could replace him.”

I was confused.

A mocking smile appeared on Ma Ji’s face. “The women of the Yan family are all infatuated with Tong Hui and his son. They are all fighting to give birth to their children. They don’t care what happens to their children. These babies will be adopted together for eight to ten years before they are sent back to the Yan family. The Yan family wouldn’t have thought that there would be an imposter among them. In addition, Tong Yan is good-looking and favored. Everyone in the Yan family highly values her. Therefore, her personality is a little domineering. She really resembles the Yan Sisters.”

I asked curiously, “But when you tried to capture me, you poisoned her!”?Tong Yan warned me to be careful of Ma Ji, but they were mother and daughter? I’m sorry, but that is very hard to believe.

Ma Ji let out a sigh of relief. “That’s because, in order to make her blood accept the phoenix blood as much as possible, I poisoned her secretly. This poison will not hurt those with the Tong family bloodline, but it’s still a poison. If it continues to stay in her body, she’ll go crazy and die. So I actually cured her before I sent her to be a spy by your side.”

“Did you tell her about this?” I asked.

“Why should I?” Ma Ji looked at me blankly.

I was speechless.

“She’s just a lab rat. What good would it do for her to know about this? She’d only feel resentment. I’m her mother, but I’ve poisoned and cured her. I don’t need to explain anything to her. I have an agreement with Tong Hui, and I won’t tell her about her background. It’s not necessarily a bad thing for her to live in a muddled state,” Ma Ji said.

I really didn’t know how to evaluate this kind of selfless and selfish motherly love.

“Alright, I’m convinced. Tell me, how can I help her? Erase her memory and then find a safe place to let her live like an ordinary person?” I asked.

“Can you?” Ma Ji’s eyes lit up.

I thought for a moment. “It’s not difficult. But the problem is how can I convince Mr. Li and my little uncle to go along with this.”

Ma Ji smiled faintly. “I’ll give you a reward.”

I was surprised. Even in her current state, she still had a reward for me?

Ma Ji looked at me. “I’ve studied the Phoenix Blood and the Tong family’s family disease for so many years. Although it’s not the same method as Mr. Li’s, I’ve made some headway. If Tong Hui has given me a title, I would have helped Tong Zhuo prolong his life. But, it’s pointless down. I don’t want to sacrifice myself to help those black-hearted people.”

Ma Ji’s eyes were burning. “My clan has been destroyed. Tong Yan is my only bloodline. However, she has never learned witchcraft and has not received any true training. If Mr. Li is worried, you can ask him to deprive Tong Yan of her natural talent. In return, I’ll give you my research result on Phoenix Blood. Nanxing, I believe you can do something with it. I trust you with my life. Don’t worry. I won’t curse it like my sister. First, I don’t have that kind of power anymore. Second, I don’t want this vicious cycle to begin again.”
