When a "Sea King" is Bound to a System [Quick Transmigration] - Chapter 57

..woke up and saw her daughter lying prone by the window. She affectionately woke her.

“Why didn’t you go sleep in the sleeping quarters?”

Níng Yān rubbed her eyes, looking noticeably tired. “I’m fine, Mother. Are you thirsty or hungry?”

Fú Níng smiled, touching her head, and slowly sat up.

“Why are you just like your Mother-Monarch, always talking about food? You are gods; you don’t need to eat.”

“Mother, you are also a god. You’re just like us.”

Fú Níng’s eyes darkened for a moment, then she smiled. “Yes, I’m just like you, so I don’t need to eat. You didn’t sleep well last night. Hurry back and rest.”

“I want to sleep with Mother. I want to keep you company.”

Fú Níng pulled back the blanket and patted the spot beside her. “Come up. Mother will sleep with you.”

Níng Yān scrambled up with her hands and feet and hugged Fú Níng tightly. “Mother, will you and Mother-Monarch be with me forever?”

Fú Níng froze for a moment, then told a white lie. “I will. We will be with you forever.”

“That’s good…” The little girl fell asleep immediately after saying this, just like Jiāng Yān, falling asleep as soon as her head touched the pillow.

Fú Níng gently stroked her head and sighed.

From that day on, Níng Yān became much more obedient. She studied seriously and cultivated diligently. Whenever she achieved something, she would ask Fú Níng for praise. Fú Níng was not stingy with her compliments, praising her as she wished.

Another ten years passed in the blink of an eye. Fú Níng’s health was failing further. Jiāng Yān knew she couldn’t last much longer, so she hastily passed the Divine Venerable position to Níng Yān and took Fú Níng to the mortal world.

Once outside Mount Sumeru, Fú Níng suffered even more. She needed support just to walk, but she couldn’t go back. Otherwise, Níng Yān would surely be devastated if she saw her die.

“Yān Yān, being with me has caused you hardship.”

Jiāng Yān held her hand, her eyes teary, and glared at her. “What are you saying? Are you the one who feels wronged, which is why you’re saying this to me?”

“No, I have never felt wronged. Being able to marry you and bear a daughter for you is the happiest thing in my life.”

Jiāng Yān buried her face in her chest, soaking a large part of her clothes with tears, and choked out, “I am also very happy. Having you and our daughter, I have no regrets in this life.”

Fú Níng patted her back, comforting her as she always had, but then the patting stopped.

Jiāng Yān did not look up, weeping silently.
