Xiao Yuan nodded, “Yes, my mother never mentioned my background. She only told me that my father died shortly after I was born.” “Wow, your mother sure knows how to lie. Your father died less than a year ago, yet she exaggerated that he died over a decade ago?” I muttered.
Volume Three: Demon Cult – Chapter 86: Stubborn Mother and Pitiful Child
I was locked in a confrontation with the beautiful elderly woman across from me.
Half an hour earlier—
“Fine, I’ll go talk to your mother clearly!” I puffed out my chest, secretly thinking: ‘I should be able to explain, right?’
Everyone cheered, and before I could change my mind, they lifted me up and rushed toward Xiao Yuan’s home. “Put me down! I can walk by myself…”
My resistance was ineffective. The men called this ‘protecting the child in the belly’. I suddenly felt dizzy. If I fell from their hands, is this really protection?
We arrived at Xiao Yuan’s home. Since it wasn’t very large, it felt even more cramped when everyone squeezed inside. Xiao Yuan’s mother was initially happy about my ‘arrival’, but her attitude changed when she heard I wanted to convince Xiao Yuan to inherit the Beggar’s Gang.

Everyone involuntarily swallowed; the atmosphere was freezing cold.
“Do you think you can persuade me?” Xiao Yuan’s mother scoffed. “I will protect him. You can rest assured.”
“I absolutely won’t let him suffer any harm in the jianghu,” I confidently declared, believing my martial arts skills were top-notch and that protecting Xiao Yuan would be no problem.
“Hehe, Xiao Yuan’s father said the same thing, but did he succeed? Didn’t he still make my son and me suffer?” Xiao Yuan’s mother said with a bitter smile. I was taken aback. Even the old gang leader was powerful but couldn’t ensure Xiao Yuan’s safety, so what could I do?
