Adorably Cute Baby: Mommy's Going Against the Heavens

Chapter 289 Where did the bridge break?

A surge of nausea and anger welled up in Shen Yunxi's heart. She sneered and set the entire building ablaze, turning it to ashes along with those disgusting men.

The following images flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern.

The relentless pursuit left her exhausted, the endless killing numbed her, and blood stained her clothes and her eyes, causing her to gradually forget her original self.

Finally, in a decisive battle, she cleaved the Demon Lord in two with a single sword strike and unwittingly ascended to the Demon Lord's throne.

Shen Yunxi coldly looked back at the past, her heart filled with emptiness.

Suddenly, a violent tremor came from beneath her feet. Her heart skipped a beat, and she gripped her hands tightly, instinctively trying to steady herself, only to find that there was nothing beneath her feet.

A dizzying, weightless sensation washed over her. Looking down, she saw that the once intact suspension bridge had broken in half.

The wind spirit power supported her, keeping her firmly in mid-air, with the two little ones standing steadily beside her.

"Mommy, my hand hurts!" Shen Ruoyu gently rubbed her little hand, which was being held tightly by her mother, and pouted her little mouth in a wronged tone, saying in a childish voice, "Mommy, please."

Shen Yunxi stared blankly, without responding.

"Mother." He raised his little face, looking at Shen Yunxi with concern, his childish voice full of care: "Mother, what's wrong? Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?"

Shen Yunxi realized she had lost her composure, so she quickly let go of Shen Ruoyu's hand, gently rubbed it, and softly comforted her, "It's alright, Mother just remembered something."

Shen Ruoning blinked her big eyes curiously, looking around with her little head, and asked in confusion, "Mommy, why do we have to fly? The bridge is fine, isn't it? Everyone is still walking on the bridge!"

She pointed her little finger at the crowd below who were still carefully moving on the bridge, her childish voice full of confusion.

Shen Yunxi looked down at the bottomless abyss beneath her feet, her gaze deep and unfathomable, and said calmly, "The bridge is broken."

"It's broken?" Shen Ruoyu looked in the direction Shen Ruoning was pointing and saw that everyone was still walking on the bridge, showing no signs of falling.

He tilted his little head and asked in a childish voice, "Mommy, where did the bridge break? Why are they still walking on the bridge?"

Shen Yunxi glanced at it indifferently, and understood in her heart that it must be the bridge under her feet that had broken!

She didn't tell the two children the truth, but just smiled faintly and said, "Perhaps Mother is mistaken."

Inside the Star-Picking Tower, the air was filled with the fragrance of sandalwood and the smoke of incense.

Lu Xiao paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, his brows furrowed, his gaze fixed on the enormous mirror of rebirth in front of him.

At this moment, the mirror surface was blank, like stagnant water, without a ripple.

He scratched his head in frustration. "What's going on? Why aren't Shen Yunxi and her two children, along with Zhi Yan, in the picture?"

His voice was low and hoarse, carrying a hint of barely perceptible anxiety.

Mo Feng leaned against the window, his expression calm, fanning himself with a folding fan, seemingly unconcerned about the situation. "It's probably a problem with the Mirror of Rebirth. It's said that those who have committed evil deeds cannot cross the suspension bridge. Don't worry too much."

Lu Xiao stopped and turned to look at Mo Feng, her eyes filled with suspicion. "That's true, but it feels a bit strange that the four of them crossed the bridge so easily."

He seemed to have thought of something, and his tone became more serious, "Especially Shen Yunxi, she is..."
