"That's right."
Bai Jue had mentioned it casually, not expecting Grandpa to confirm his words the very next second.
"Grandpa, what other status did Grandma have? Didn't she tell you that after her family's business failed, they drove her out, and then she founded the Jian Family with you?" Jian Luo frowned, completely dizzy with the turn of events.
"That was just a blindfold for outsiders," Grandpa said.
Jian Luo, "Ah?"
"Your Grandma actually came from a mysterious tribe. That place was isolated from the world and was adept at the art of controlling gu. The tribe would select a new sacred female every twenty years. Each sacred female was highly respected within the tribe, possessing an exalted status. However, compared to that, to be a sacred female also meant paying a great price," Grandpa said, his mood becoming somewhat heavy as he recounted those bygone events.
