However, Blue Jingkuang's response was like a sharp blade piercing deeply into Blue Qingyan's heart, causing it to bleed profusely.
She never expected such an answer. Over the years, she had merged well with the Seven-Colored Divine Pearl and encountered no issues.
Most of the time, she believed that she was the chosen one by the Seven-Colored Divine Pearl.
Only when some people mentioned her deceased sister would she feel a twinge of jealousy, even though it was directed towards someone who was already dead.
Because the Seven-Colored Divine Pearl had chosen Blue Yixuan, not her, Blue Qingyan.
It was an uncomfortable feeling, as if her title as the inheritor of the Seven-Colored Divine Pearl was illegitimate. Even though she possessed it now, it still brought unpleasant sensations.
She couldn't understand why the Seven-Colored Divine Pearl chose Blue Yixuan over her.
She was undoubtedly outstanding, so was she really inferior to Blue Yixuan?
In this short period of time, Blue Qingyan's mind was filled with countless thoughts, eventually boiling down to one: anger and frustration.
Since Blue Jingkuang had figured out the answer to this question, it was likely that the other elders had also grasped the issue.
In that case, wouldn't it mean that everyone was reminded of the fact that she, Blue Qingyan, the inheritor of the Seven-Colored Divine Pearl, lacked legitimacy?
For a moment, an indescribable sense of humiliation spread through her, overwhelming her and leaving her unable to retaliate.
Because, deep down, it didn't truly belong to her.
After observing the defeated expression on Blue Qingyan's face, Blue Jingkuang didn't say anything more. He simply turned around and left.
He believed that it was a good choice for Blue Qingyan to recognize her own limitations rather than continue with her previous arrogance.
Otherwise, if things continued to develop in the same direction, Blue Qingyan would truly have no hope left.
Lost in her thoughts, Blue Qingyan didn't even notice Blue Jingkuang's departure.
Throughout her life, she had always lived with such arrogance, accustomed to being the center of attention without anyone overshadowing her brilliance.
However, the impact of Blue Jingkuang's words today was too great, leaving her unable to regain her composure for a moment.
After seeing Blue Qingyan standing there in a daze, Yue Manlan couldn't help but walk over and express her concern, saying, "Qingyan, your father said those things because he was extremely angry. Don't take them to heart."
Only then did Blue Qingyan snap out of her trance, but her expression was still grim.
"Not take them to heart? How is it possible not to take them to heart? Right now, all the elders undoubtedly see me as an imposter, someone without legitimacy, incapable of obtaining the recognition of the Chaos Stele.
Grandfather has been remembering Blue Yixuan all these years, even though she's been dead for so long.
All of this is because of your and Father's incompetence, and now all the pressure is being placed on me!"
Blue Qingyan seethed with anger. Just the thought of it made her feel incapable of facing anyone at the moment.
After saying all this, she buried herself under the covers, refusing to say anything more.
Yue Manlan watched Blue Qingyan's actions and couldn't help but feel helpless.
Indeed, she was useless. If she had any worth, her life wouldn't have turned out this way.
Unfortunately, the path had reached its current stage, and there was no possibility of changing it.
Blue Qingyan's heartless accusations were equally painful for Yue Manlan. Both father and daughter had been blinded by power.
