Lonemoon confirmed it, the child was indeed the spirit seed of the plane that he’d just taken over. Hong Meng’s plane had been destroyed once, it was possible that a spirit seed had been created then but due to the subsequent collapse of the plane, he was accidentally drained to Void Land.
Originally, when a plane is destroyed, the spirit seed will also disappear following the original source. However, at that time, in order to save Hong Meng and the others, Godfiend sealed up the original source purple gas. Hence the spirit seed in Void Land did not disappear. Later on, Shen Ying reopened the plane and Lonemoon built Heavenly Dao, becoming the new manager, that was when the spirit seed awoke and took on a form.
He was a spirit form from the original source, so he would instinctively be especially close to Lonemoon, the manager, and in theory, he was his superior, there was nothing wrong with calling him daddy. On the other hand, Shen Ying was the one who opened the plane, that was equivalent to giving him a new life, it was totally reasonable for him to call her mummy.
Yet it was such a perfectly logical and reasonable matter that accidentally exposed what the trio had taken pains to hide, their feigned identities were pulled apart by Shen Jing in an instant. The anger that was initially directed to Father Niu instantly spread to all three, everyone had a share.
An hour later.
Three people with swollen and bruised faces crawled out of the chaos, each holding their faces that were as swollen as a pig’s head, hissing in pain.
Lonemoon turned his head to give Shen Ying a despising and resentful look: What happened to you being stronger than Shen Jing? Why didn’t I see you resist at all, you submitted faster than anyone else?
Shen Ying immediately glared back, giving him the same expression: You talk as if you dared to fight back? I was just used to being timid.

On the contrary, only Yi Qing was a whole different look. He was the one who looked the worst amongst all three, yet his first reaction was to support his own Master with a pained look. “Master, are you okay?” As he spoke, he used the bit of spiritual power that he had just recovered to conjure a healing spell. While treating the bruises on her face, he asked nervously, “Does it hurt?”
“Mm.” Shen Ying replied. “I’m fine.”
Yet he looked even more pained. “You’re already injured so badly, how could it not hurt. Don’t move, I’ll treat your injuries.” He said, as he pulled her into his arms, nervously conjuring more spells.
The corner of Lonemoon’s mouth twitched and he scoffed directly. “Heh heh, you ought to! Quickly treat her, an hour or half later, everything might have healed already!”
Shen Ying: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
Hmph! Flaunting your display of affection even at such a time!
Although Shen Ying took the most beating, she was the one with the least severe injuries. Due to varying constitutions, when Shen Ying gets a punch from Shen Jing, it ends up as a patch of bruise. Whereas the two others become half dead with one of Shen Jing’s punch. Hence 95% of the damage earlier had been tanked by Shen Ying.
It wasn’t because she was really loyal, but that Shen Jing seemed to be used to beat her up, once she started, it was as if she couldn’t stop. With the exception of giving him and Lonemoon several light hits at the start, the rest of the time, she was throwing her punches on Shen Ying her swings and hooks so smooth. Lonemoon and Chef felt the pain even by just watching from the side, they couldn’t even go close at all, the wind from her punches was enough to choke.
The few of them were intending to chat when the door to chaos opened once again, Shen Jing who was a step behind them had also returned, dragging an unknown creature whose original appearance could not be made out clearly. Judging by the tattered clothes that could be vaguely pieced together to form a suit, that’s right, it was Mi Le. It was very obvious that the additional short while she’d spent in chaos was to go pick up a body.
Shen Jing lifted her hand and threw it forward, with a thud, an unknown lump stopped at their feet after a roll. Mi Le’s precious face was now swollen like a pig… no, it was even more indiscernible than that, it was swollen like a ball.
No one knew what Shen Jing did, his other wounds were all healing, just his face remained an unbearable sight. He sprawled out, unmoving on the ground but they faintly saw his eyelids move slightly. It was evident that he was cowardly feigning death, not daring to wake up.
All three of them trembled, their waists tightened as their bodies straightened… then all fell to their knees!
“Sister Jing! We were wrong!”
Timidity was a wonderful quality to have as a manager, all three of them understood this special tradition very well.
“Hmph!”
Shen Jing swept her gaze across all three people before her with a shadow of a smile. Her expression turning cold again, with a wave of her hand, she conjured a comfortable sofa before them and sat down, then brought out a tea table and coffee. Sipping elegantly, her gaze fixed onto Shen Ying as she started to settle scores!
“Shen, Little, Ying… you’ve become more capable, huh! You dare to lie even to me is it?”
Shen Ying shuddered, her head bowed like a quail.
“Speak!” Her eyes narrowed. “When did you transfer the planes to these two rascals? Did you feel that your wings are strong now and I don’t have a say over you anymore?”
“No no no… Sister.” Shen Ying immediately shook her head fervently. “You do, you do!”
But Shen Jing’s gaze became even colder, her voice dropping. “Since you’re no longer a manager, why won’t you go home! How long more are you intending to wander out here?”
“Sisteeerrrr….” Shen Ying dragged out.
“Who’s your sister!” The coffee in her hands was placed onto the tea table with a clatter. The anger that had just dissipated flared up once more. “I don’t have such a sister who doesn’t stay home! If I hadn’t come here this time, when were you three rascals intending to hide it from me till?”
“I was wrong!” All three of them responded again together.
“If you know your mistakes then get the hell back!” She glared at her. “Don’t think I couldn’t tell, that you could sense the existence of monitors proves that your body has undergone new changes again! Since you are no longer a manager, there is no need for you to stay here. Only when you come back with me, will I be reassured.”
“No way!” Shen Ying lifted her head and looked right at her.
“Why? Were you all joking when you said you were wrong earlier?” Her expression was icy, vaguely looking like snowflakes was about to appear.
Yet Shen Ying still shook her head. “Sister, not now.”
“Why not…” Shen Jing paused midway, recalling something, she glanced at Lonemoon and Chef. “You’re doing this for these two rascals?”
Shen Ying sighed, her voice softening instantly. “Sister, nothing will happen to me. There is no difference as to which plane I am!”
“Who said there isn’t!” You’re about to be seduced away by a wild rascal out here.
“Big sister!” Seeing that she was about to fly into a rage, Chef held Shen Ying’s hand tightly and spoke up in time. “You’ve consented to Master and my marriage, a couple should stay together, so… I ask that you don’t break us up, please let Master stay here.”
Lonemoon instantly understood and immediately added. “That’s right Sister Jing, as a monitor, you’re the most impartial person. I believe you won’t go back on your words?”
Shen Jing’s expression darkened completely, in moments, it was as if the temperatures of the divine realm fell by tens of degrees, even Mi Le who was feigning death on the ground was so cold that he shivered. Dagger-like eyes swept towards Chef like it was about to hack him to pieces.
A while later…
The cold air around her was drawn back, she suddenly lifted the corners of her lips at them, revealing a smile as warm as spring. All three of them shuddered at once, instantly feeling the urge to find somewhere to hide themselves, doesn’t it feel even scarier now?
Jelly legs made them want to kneel!
Oh, they were already on their knees.
