Chapter 2505: Chapter 2506: Is he my brother?
She’s a woman merely surviving, indifferent to the question of life or death, but she has two sons. She can’t let them fall into despair because of her.
Those people are ruthless; they won’t care whether her two sons have Ding Family blood.
If she leaves Chrysanthemum Hall, they will certainly target her and her two sons. If anything happens to her children, she would deeply regret it.
“Ru’er, you don’t know how cruel those people are. Now your father doesn’t remember me, he can’t protect you.”
With no man to rely on, no one to protect them, she can only depend on herself. Anyway, she’s rough and tough; she can endure until her sons grow up and become more capable, then they can escape this hellhole.
“We need to gather more things. Just these things are not enough, really not enough. Ru’er, you must be obedient, don’t show dissatisfaction with those people, understand?”
“Mother!”
Ru’er uttered a low growl.
He truly cannot bear to see his mother in that place. Over the years, he has watched her struggle.
These hardships, sorrows, she has swallowed them all, just for him and his younger brother!
“It’s okay, really okay, Ru’er, we’ll hold on. When Jun’er’s herbalism reaches Level Three, and your alchemy reaches Level Three, we can go to the Beast Clan. Once we’re there, the people from Sky City can’t harm us anymore.
But not now. We need patience; we’ve survived like this for so many years, what’s a few more?”
The woman quietly advised her son.
She really doesn’t care anymore. When she first arrived at Chrysanthemum Hall, she truly contemplated death.
But when she knew she was pregnant, she felt everything was worth it, as long as her two sons could live safe and happy lives in the future.
Listening to the woman’s words, Ru’er clenched his teeth silently.
Although the Beast Clan has always recruited human herbalists and alchemists, and once they join, the Human Clan can’t interfere with them anymore.
Still, improving herbalism and alchemy skills isn’t so easy.
He and his younger brother are only at Level Two now, secretly crafting and selling elixir pills and weapons on the black market. They have no idea when they’ll advance to the next level.
“Mother, don’t worry. Jun’er and I will work hard, and we’ll surely busy ourselves with upgrading.”
He earnestly promised the woman.
As long as one of them reaches Level Three, they can seek refuge with the Beast Clan.
“Ru’er, don’t rush. It needs to happen gradually,” the woman immediately added upon hearing his words.
Advancing is inherently difficult, even those pampered by spiritual resources find it challenging, not to mention poor people like them, who might not even afford food.
So, they absolutely mustn’t rush, or they risk losing their minds from intense training.
“This… is my brother?”
In a corner, Ding Rong, taken out from Hongye Pavilion by Liu Yuyang, gazed at the shabby house battered by the wind, where the mother and son discussed how to escape.
She never knew she actually had two brothers, living in such… such a lowly place; she couldn’t even imagine it.
