Chapter 6: The Pervert’s Legacy

A captivating female voice, both enchanting and delicate, suddenly resounded in the ears of Su Yun and Su Muxue.

“Oh, my dear Muxue, it’s been so long! Have you missed me all these years?”

The moment the voice spoke, Su Muxue bristled, her eyes darting around as if in a frenzy.

“You! You perverted monster! Where are you? Come out right now!” Su Muxue yelled furiously.

Meanwhile, Su Yun’s face darkened as she noticed the extra feminine undergarments and lingerie on her body, along with her inexplicably altered hairstyle.

In her current state, Su Yun looked extraordinary, like a succubus, with fiery red eyes, lips, and even crimson fingernails.

She, too, had heard the woman’s voice and began searching around, just like Su Muxue.

“Who are you? Hiding your face like a coward! Was it you, you bastard, who turned me into this?” Su Yun demanded, seething with anger.

The mysterious woman did not reveal herself, or perhaps she wasn’t physically present. She seemed to be conversing with Su Muxue and Su Yun through some special means.

“Oh? Muxue, is this our little darling? They’ve grown so big! But judging by their current appearance, they must have used the treasure I gave you. Ah, right, I almost forgot about the restriction I set myself.” The Mysterious Woman mused aloud.

These words were tantamount to confessing to Su Yun, ‘I’m the one who turned you into this.’

“You! Damn you! Who exactly are you? Did you turn me into this? I don’t want to be a woman! You’d better change me back, or once I find out who you are, you’re finished!” Su Yun retorted furiously.

She was starting to lose her temper, unable to calm herself.

Beside her, Su Muxue watched Su Yun’s angry outburst at the Mysterious Woman, her face a strange mix of confusion and consternation.

“Huh? You… you don’t know who I am? Muxue, didn’t you tell her?” The Mysterious Woman sounded bewildered by Su Yun’s words.

Su Muxue rolled her eyes.

“You big pervert, how was I supposed to explain? I still don’t even understand what kind of relationship Yun’er and I have!” Su Muxue grumbled.

Noticing that her mother clearly knew the other party, Su Yun managed to suppress her anger slightly.

“What’s there to be conflicted about? This brat, oh no, now this little girl, she came from my belly and was then nurtured by your bloodline. So naturally, you’re the father, and I’m the mother!” The Mysterious Woman uttered words that struck Su Yun like a bolt of lightning.

Su Yun stared at Su Muxue, her face filled with utter disbelief. Her entire worldview seemed to crumble in that instant.

This beautiful and captivating fairy-like woman before her was her father? And this Mysterious Woman was her birth mother? What in the world was this convoluted mess?

“What ‘father’? Don’t spout nonsense and scare the child! I’m a perfectly normal, innocent woman; when did I become a father? As for you, you perverted monster, inexplicably changing from a man to a woman and tricking my feelings—I, I utterly detest you!” Su Muxue retorted angrily.

This statement further shattered Su Yun’s perception of reality. So, her so-called birth mother was previously a man?

Su Yun felt as if the sky was falling. She was actually the descendant of a pervert, and now, she herself had become a pervert.

However, that remark displeased the Mysterious Woman.

“What ‘pervert’? Don’t use such harsh words. Haven’t I explained it to you many times? I was once in a state where yin and yang were undivided; our clan is born without gender.” The Mysterious Woman clarified.

Su Yun was already numb. She even suspected that this unseen ‘mother’ of hers might not even be human.

“I won’t listen, I won’t listen! You’re just a pervert! Even if you had to choose a gender, couldn’t you have become a man? Why did you become a woman?” Su Muxue countered.

But the Mysterious Woman immediately replied with an innocent tone.

“Didn’t you say you wanted a good sister? I chose my gender according to your wishes. How can you go back on that now?”

Su Muxue immediately covered her ears.

“Ah, I’m not listening! It’s all your fault anyway! You even turned our son into your weird self! Hurry and change him back, or I’ll never forgive you!” Su Muxue complained.

Su Yun watched her mother’s reaction, utterly speechless.

There was no way she could ever see Su Muxue as her father. At most, she had simply gained another mother.

“Alright, alright, it’s all my fault, okay? As for Yun’er’s situation, I, I can’t do anything about it. Didn’t I warn you not to let Yun’er wear this outfit unless absolutely necessary? Once worn, there’s no turning back.

“This garment is meant to awaken the dormant bloodline within Yun’er. She doesn’t possess our clan’s pure bloodline. Awakening it will lead to rebirth through fire, and there’s a high probability her gender will change. I truly can’t help with that, little one; you’ll just have to accept your fate.” The Mysterious Woman answered Su Muxue’s question, not forgetting to mock Su Yun in the process.

Knowing the other party’s identity, Su Yun found herself unable to curse at her anymore, feeling incredibly stifled.

“You… I can’t be bothered with you. I’ve never even met you, so I won’t acknowledge you as my mother. I only have one mother!” Su Yun declared, her face a mix of exasperation and annoyance.

However, her words didn’t faze the Mysterious Woman in the slightest.

“Don’t acknowledge me if you don’t want to; I don’t care. After all, your birth was purely an accident. As long as your father acknowledges me, that’s enough, right, Muxue?” The Mysterious Woman said, her tone utterly infuriating.

“You? Get lost! Who would acknowledge you? My son won’t, and neither will I! Go die!” Su Muxue retorted furiously.

The Mysterious Woman suddenly sounded incredibly wronged.

“It’s over, it’s all over! My husband doesn’t want me, and neither does my child. How truly unlucky I am! Fine, I won’t chat with you two anymore. Muxue, once I’m done with my affairs here, I’ll come find you.

“Oh, and you stinky boy—no, stinky girl—don’t even think about changing back into a man. Also, since you’ve become a girl, just be a good girl. Don’t touch men’s things. You can only touch what I allow you to touch.”

“The clothes on your body were originally made from your bloodline power and carry my will. If I don’t permit you to wear men’s clothes, they’ll burst into flames the moment you touch them. Ah ha ha ha…” The mysterious person’s laughter gradually faded away.

This woman was truly a pervert, and her laughter was even more so.

Well, now Su Muxue no longer needed to explain their relationship. Su Yun understood everything. No wonder her beautiful mother had been so reluctant to speak; if it were her, she wouldn’t have been able to say it either.

She also understood why Su Muxue kept calling the other party a pervert—because that individual was, indeed, a pervert. Su Muxue hadn’t slandered her in the slightest.

“Hey! Are you really gone? I still have so many questions for you!” Su Muxue called out several times, but received no response for a long while.

Only after confirming that the other party had left did Su Muxue let out a heavy sigh.

“Ah! Son, you understand now, don’t you? That’s just how things are.” Su Muxue said, looking at Su Yun.

What more could Su Yun say? It seemed she could only accept her fate now. She glanced again at the clothes on her body, feeling incredibly awkward.

“Mother, I only acknowledge you. I absolutely refuse to acknowledge that pervert! But… what do I do now?” Su Yun was now grappling with another problem.

This was a problem the mother and daughter urgently needed to solve.

“Can’t these clothes be taken off?” Su Muxue walked up to Su Yun and tugged at her outfit.

“Ow, that hurts! These clothes seem to be stuck to my skin!” Su Yun winced in pain.

Upon hearing this, Su Muxue seemed to recall something.

“Yun’er, close your eyes and feel carefully. See if there’s a special power within you. If there is, use your will to make that power recede.” Su Muxue quickly instructed.

Although Su Yun didn’t fully understand what her mother meant, she still closed her eyes as instructed by Su Muxue and focused on sensing within herself.

Normally, only those who reached the Qi Refinement Realm could perform inner sight. Yet, when Su Yun closed her eyes, she found her consciousness arriving in a very peculiar space.

This was a spiritual sea of consciousness. However, Su Yun’s spiritual sea was quite unique, appearing as a land of molten lava.

“This… where is this? Is it a cultivator’s sea of consciousness?” Su Yun looked around.

While she hadn’t been a cultivator before, she had practiced cultivation and possessed some understanding of it.

Just as Su Yun pondered her location, a sudden phoenix cry echoed in her ears.

Then, a fiery red divine bird, shimmering with golden light, spread its wings and soared up from the molten land.

“This? No way… is this a phoenix?” Su Yun stared at the divine bird soaring before her, quickly recalling seeing something similar in an ancient text.

This phoenix was, moreover, the legendary Fire Phoenix.

“Eh? What is this feeling?” After exchanging glances with the Fire Phoenix, Su Yun suddenly felt a strange connection form.

She felt as though she could control the Fire Phoenix.

Indeed, under Su Yun’s mental command, the Fire Phoenix began to fly precisely as she willed it, like a remote-controlled aircraft.

“Go back.” After controlling it for a while, Su Yun issued a command.

The moment the command was given, the Fire Phoenix plunged back into the lava, disappearing from sight.

Outside, Su Yun’s body also began to glow. After a flicker of red light, Su Yun’s peculiar appearance reverted to normal. However, she did not transform back into a man, but rather became an ordinary young girl.
