Mu Yao’s mind was in a mess. She couldn’t predict how many things she would encounter on her way to revenge. And now, he had already encountered two weaknesses right after leaving the cave.

Mu Yao had already given up her first weakness. As for this second weakness…

Suddenly, Mu Yao felt something soft wrap around her legs.

She broke out in a cold sweat as she slowly lowered her head. There were two cute little things wrapped around her legs, one on each side.

Two pairs of large eyes blinked and two small mouths grinned in unison. Even the little girl had grown out her front teeth.

“Mommy.”

“Mommy!”

How could Mu Yao bear to part with them just like this? They were so adorable! Besides, she had given birth to them after struggling in agony for almost two hours! They were her flesh and blood, and her children with Xiaohuo…

Their children even looked identical to her and Xiaohuo!

She thought to herself, ‘Mu Yao, you have to be more ruthless. It doesn’t matter if you’re seeking revenge or hiding from your enemies. Having two children will be a burden and a weakness!’

The next second, she gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.

Mu Yao had sworn to be a different person. If she wanted to become her enemy’s enemy, she could not afford to leave any obstacles or weaknesses behind!

She then squatted down and forcefully pulled the two children away. Instantly, she closed her eyes and rushed toward the exit!

She couldn’t bear to look at them. She knew that she would definitely be soft-hearted if she were to do so.

‘It doesn’t matter, Mu Yao. Xiaohuo will definitely be able to find them! They will be fine as long as he finds them!’

…

There was a dilapidated villa ten miles outside from the forest.

By now, the sun had already set and it was completely dark. Mu Yao hadn’t eaten or drunk for more than twenty hours and was utterly exhausted,

She had been planning on going to the Imperial Preceptor’s residence first. However, she realized that the forest was more remote than she had expected. Not only that, but the roads were also torturous.

It hadn’t been easy for her to get out of the forest! Thankfully, she had not encountered any demons, monsters, or even humans chasing after her on the way out. Even Mu Yao herself was a little surprised by that.

Finally, just as she was about to collapse, Mu Yao spotted a village she could temporarily stay in. Although the sun had just set not too long ago, the lights of every household in this village were already extinguished. That was strange!

Looking into the distance, Mu Yao found not a single soul on the road toward the village—not even a stray cat.

Panting, Mu Yao carefully entered the village. On both sides of the road stood houses built with wooden stakes and straw.

The strange thing was that there were traces of people living along the street where Mu Yao was walking.

Holding her arm, Mu Yao struggled to reach for a sweet potato. It was still a little hot.

‘If there were people on the streets not long ago, then there must be people in this village.

But why is there no light in the houses?’

At a glance, it was pitch black, with no end in sight.

‘Whatever, I’ll just eat first. The sweet potato’s free. I might as well have my fill! I might not be able to hold on much longer if I don’t fill my stomach now!’ she thought to herself.

Even with the elixir, there was no way she could last so long without food.

Mu Yao put her things down, picked up a sweet potato and started peeling off the skin of a sweet potato openly on the dark street. What Mu Yao didn’t know was that someone was watching her every move.

In every cottage, there were a few pairs of eyes peeking out from the gaps between the doors and windows. They watched as Mu Yao wandered around the streets.

Meanwhile, Mu Yao had finished peeling the sweet potato and was about to put it into her mouth when a heart-wrenching cry came from behind her.

Mu Yao took a deep breath and subconsciously put a hand on her forehead. She moved the sweet potato away from her mouth.

Mu Yao crouched down and blew at the sweet potato in her hand. She then split it into two halves and fed them to the two adorable babies.

That was right. Mu Yao couldn’t bear to part with the twins in the end. She had walked out of the forest carrying the two babies that were getting increasingly heavier.

Along the way, Mu Yao had almost abandoned her two babies several times. But every time that thought came to mind, the image of Xia Guoyong reporting her to the authorities in her previous life would appear in her mind. She did not want these two adorable children to be abandoned from birth.

In the end, she even named the two children. The elder brother was called Zimo, while the younger sister was called Zichun.

Zimo grabbed the sweet potato and started chomping on it. On the other hand, Zichun ate it slowly and gracefully.

Mu Yao’s face darkened. She had no idea how to educate her two kids.

It didn’t take Zimo long to finish his portion, and his gaze turned to the sweet potato that his sister was still slowly eating. Then, he grabbed it and threw it into his mouth.

That sent Zichun bursting into tears.

The eerily-quiet village was filled with only the cries of the newborn, which were no longer adorable, but downright terrifying.

Mu Yao was at a complete loss! “Hey, Zichun. Don’t cry!”

However, the young girl cried even louder!

“And you, Zimo, how could you steal your sister’s food?”

The next moment, Zimo burst into tears as well!

Mu Yao didn’t know what to do. Seeing the two babies crying louder and louder, she felt aggrieved and frustrated.

All of a sudden, she jumped to her feet and pointed at the two kids angrily. “Cry again and I’ll leave you here to be eaten by the wolves!”

The two children widened their big red eyes and froze for a while, and they even stopped crying!

Mu Yao scratched her head and rejoiced inwardly. ‘I guess being fierce is the only way to go! That’s how kids should be taught!’

But just then, an even louder cry sounded. This time, it was comparable to the howl of a fox!

Because their mother had been so fierce to them instead of doting on them, they instantly felt extremely frustrated, and they cried to the point they seemed as if their internal organs were about to be torn out.

Mu Yao, who was losing her hearing, couldn’t help but sigh at the sky and shout, “Ah! It’s not easy being a mother!”
