Chapter 172 172. My Dad is Crazy
Most people certainly don’t like being stared at all the time, especially by the inquiring gaze of the opposite sex.

Not to mention Jinjiu, Fang Qingyao felt that if she were in Jinjiu's position, and there was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties staring at her, she would definitely want to dig out his eyes.

But before Fang Qingyao could do anything, Fang's father suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "I remember! You are Jin Jiu! You are Miss Jin!"

Fang Qingyao: “…” It’s over, my dad has gone crazy.

Jin Jiu: “…”

Jin Jiu was not actually unhappy with Fang's father's previous gaze. After all, his gaze was purely exploratory, and it also contained some doubts and memories, so she did not feel offended.

And she also wanted to know what the other party could say, after all, she didn't remember knowing Fang's father.

But Jinjiu didn't expect that Mr. Fang was so unreliable.

Faced with the complicated looks from the two people, especially since one of them was his daughter whom he had tried every means to keep today, Father Fang suddenly felt embarrassed.

Now he also knew how problematic his behavior was. He was afraid of being misunderstood, so he quickly explained after he realized what was happening: "I mean, I've seen you, Miss Jin, you are the eldest daughter of the Jin Group!"

"I've been to your birthday party before. I saw you from a distance, but it wasn't clear, so I didn't recognize you at first. I'm sorry if I offended you before."

"It's okay." Jin Jiu understood that Fang's father had attended her birthday party.

No wonder he knows himself but I don’t know him.

After all, Jinjiu only appeared for a short while at the birthday party and then ran away. It was really not easy to recognize Jinjiu after just seeing him from a distance.

"It's easy now that we know each other. At least you shouldn't think I'm a liar." Jinjiu thought it was a good idea as it saved him from having to explain himself.

Father Fang was confused for a moment, not quite understanding what Jinjiu meant.

But his mouth was faster than his brain, and he subconsciously said, "How could Miss Jin be a liar?"

Although it was said subconsciously, Fang's father also thought so in his heart. After all, the Jin Group is a big and powerful company, and the Fang family is far inferior to it.

If the Jin Group wanted to deal with the Fang family, it would only take a word. Although not as exaggerated as the Tianliang King's destruction, it would be enough to make the Fang family miserable.

There is really no need for the Jin family to deliberately send their eldest daughter to visit in person. Father Fang still has this self-awareness.

But precisely because of this, Father Fang was even more curious about what Jin Jiu was here to do.

"In that case, let me be frank." Jin Jiu glanced at Fang Qingyao, and then said, "Your wife is the saint of the Mi tribe. The Mi tribe cannot marry outsiders, but she was unwilling to accept the arrangement, so she fled the tribe."

Just the first few words shocked the father and daughter.

They had never heard of the Mi tribe or the saint lady!
However, for Fang Qingyao, who had read a lot of novels, she seemed to understand a little bit. The Mi tribe here should be similar to some races with special heritage in novels. They do not intermarry with outsiders in order to ensure their pure bloodline.

For the sake of bloodline, they can do many crazy things, including: once it is discovered that a member of the tribe secretly marries someone from outside the tribe, the member of the tribe will be punished and the outsider will be executed. If a child is born, the child will also not be spared.

When Fang's father heard that intermarriage would result in death, he did not react much. However, when he heard that the Mi people would not even let their children go, he became furious.

It’s okay to deal with him. After all, he has lived for decades and has seen all kinds of monsters and demons.

But it's absolutely impossible to deal with her daughter!
Thinking of this, Father Fang suddenly realized something. Even though Jinjiu's words were so absurd, he still believed it. This was probably due to Jinjiu's identity.

However, why did his daughter bring Jinjiu back?

Father Fang knew that Fang Qingyao definitely didn't know Jinjiu's identity, so why would she believe Jinjiu?
Jin Jiu's next words cleared up his doubts.

"Your mother is not actually dead. She faked her own death and left in order to protect you. I have explained the reason before. After she left, she did not return to the Mi tribe. Instead, she found a man and gave birth to a child with him. This child is Yang Feng."

"Not long after giving birth to Yang Feng, she was taken back by the Mi tribe. The saint had committed adultery with an outsider and had a child, which was a serious crime, so she suffered a lot... But fortunately, Yang Feng's father was also a mixed-race of the Mi tribe and an outsider. For the sake of the Mi tribe's reputation, the tribe leader lied that Yang Feng's father was also a member of the Mi tribe."

"The Saint has a noble status in the Mi tribe. She enjoys preferential treatment and also has to pray for the Mi tribe. She also has to give birth to the next Saint..." When he said this, Jinjiu looked at Fang Qingyao meaningfully again, which made Fang Qingyao feel creepy.

"Then, then what?" Fang Qingyao's face was a little pale.

She suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.

Fang Qingyao has been without a mother since she was a child. Although Fang's father is very good to her, maternal love cannot be replaced by anything. Especially since she was a child, the parents of her classmates, neighbors, and friends are all in pairs, which made her very envious.

She once thought that it would be nice if her mother were still alive, but now she suddenly heard that her mother was not dead. Fang Qingyao felt that she should be happy, but for some reason she couldn't be happy.

"Unfortunately, after giving birth to Yang Feng, the saint was tortured by the Mi tribe and lost her ability to bear children." Of course, she did this on purpose.

Because she didn't want to marry within the clan, she only liked Fang's father.

Although Yang Feng is her child, she has never had close contact with Yang Feng's father, and the child was conceived through other means.

"The Saint lost her fertility, which meant she couldn't give birth to a Saint for the Mi tribe. So a conflict arose within the tribe. Some people demanded a new Saint, while others demanded that Yang Feng be chosen as the Saint...but in the end, neither of these two options was chosen."

"The clan leader also saw a method to purify blood from somewhere, so he asked Yang Feng to find women from other clans to give birth to children. When the number of children reaches seven, the clan leader will hold a ceremony to purify the blood of the Mi clan from six of the children into the seventh child, and the seventh child will be a baby girl."

And this baby girl will become the next Saint, who possesses both the blood of the Saint and the pure blood of the Mi clan.

It sounds ridiculous, but for these strange races, various sacrificial activities are actually normal.

"What a coincidence. I didn't expect Yang Feng to be with you by mistake. If nothing unexpected happens, you are his first target."
