After Having Everything Taken Away, She Returns As A God

It was as if an electric current coursed through her, causing her heart to pound and her fingertips to tingle.

She stared dumbfounded at Si Fuqing.

Old Lady In, usually so composed and knowledgeable, was at a loss for words.

In Qiushi was similarly stunned.

He had mentioned Si Fuqing’s resemblance to In Beichen to Old Lady In because he indeed saw a striking similarity, but mostly it was due to his longing for In Beichen, using this as a mental solace.

Even In Qiushi had not anticipated that Si Fuqing was truly In Beichen’s daughter!

“Qiushi, what-what did this child call me?” After a moment, Old Lady In finally reacted, gripping In Qiushi’s hand tightly, her voice filled with disbelief. “Did you hear that? What did she call me?”

In Qiushi’s throat tightened, and he choked up, tears streaming down his face. “Old Lady, you heard right. She called you grandma, grandma!”

They had a little miss now!

Old Lady In’s body swayed, and she took two urgent steps forward. “Child, can you call me that again?”

Si Fuqing held Old Lady In’s outstretched hand and smiled gently, her voice firm. “Grandma.”

Nian Tingchu had told her about Old Lady In, saying that the person he felt most guilty towards in his life was Old Lady In.

Losing her father at a young age, losing her husband in middle age, and then losing her son in old age.

Old Lady In had lived a life full of suffering.

Yet she was incredibly gifted, a superior Class A evolved being, and a key figure in the In family’s development.

If the tragedy had not occurred, Old Lady In’s status in the In family would have been unassailable.

But Nian Tingchu could not return, nor could he contact Old Lady In.

Without sufficient strength or power, it would only bring another catastrophe upon the In family.

He had already committed an unforgivable act.

Hurting his loved ones again was something Nian Tingchu could not forgive himself for.

“Yes!” Old Lady In cried tears of joy, scrutinizing Si Fuqing. “You really look like Beichen, and your demeanor too. You are my granddaughter! My granddaughter!”

For over twenty years, she had never had a peaceful night’s sleep, always haunted by bloody nightmares.

In her dreams, she saw In Beichen covered in blood, bowing to the In family from a distance in gratitude for their kindness.

She heard him say, “Today’s events are all my doing. I, In Beichen, willingly leave the In family, renouncing my surname and name. From now on, my actions will have nothing to do with the In family!”

“I, Beichen, bow to you all. Please do not let any more innocent people suffer for me and Yaonian.”

In Beichen and In Yaonian had been forced to leave the In family, and many elders had died or been injured, yet those people had not stopped.

This was the unbearable pain of Old Lady In’s life.

“Look at me, I must have scared you with my excitement,” Old Lady In said, wiping her tears, her voice still trembling. “When I saw your name, I knew you must be related to Beichen. How is your father… is he well?”

Si Fuqing fell silent for a moment, not answering the question directly. She said softly, “Uncle misses you very much. He has always felt guilty all these years.”

“Guilty? He has nothing to feel guilty about!” Old Lady In’s eyes were red. “I am the one who is too weak. I couldn’t even protect my sons.”

Her eyes filled with a fierce determination. “It is that group of people who deserve to die!”

The two brothers had killed two players in ‘Eternity,’ but it was because the other side was too arrogant and aggressive, leaving them no choice.

In Beichen and In Yaonian had not only great talent and rapid progress in their abilities, but they were also highly principled, unlike some other evolved beings.

In the full-immersion game, dying didn’t mean real death. At worst, their accounts would be permanently banned.

Even a six-star player could not be as powerful as the Master of the Ghost Valley, who had the strength to turn players into vegetative states.

But that group had demanded “a life for a life,” forcing In Beichen and In Yaonian to commit suicide.

Even after the brothers deleted their accounts, they were still not left alone.

Si Fuqing’s eyes closed, a chill in her gaze. “I will take revenge.”

“What about your father?” Madam Yin couldn’t help but ask again. “Is he… is he really…”

At this point, she couldn’t continue.

She didn’t dare to say it, nor did she dare to ask, fearing the answer would be too much for her to bear.
