Hui Zhen shook her head. She had eaten the immortal meat and felt a powerful force nourishing her weak body. She had been reborn, and her emaciated face regained a healthy glow.
Her skin was as fair as snow. She said, "Mother, I'm walking the right path. I'll prove it to you."
The woman closed her eyes and said hoarsely, "I have something to tell you. Come closer."
Hui Zhen leaned over gently and held the immortal meat. "Mother, have a bite. Let's live together, okay?"
The woman used almost all her strength to stab the dagger into Hui Zhen's heart. Tears streamed down her face. "I can't let you commit sins. I'm sorry. He can't become immortal, nor can you."
Hui Zhen looked at her heart. It hurt. She could feel how deep her mother's killing intent towards her was. Her mother twisted the dagger, wanting to crush her heart.
