Sally came downstairs and saw Manman chasing the three dogs, she spoke with a gentle scold, "Manman, don't bully Daquan, Xiaoer, or Xiaosan." "Manman didn't bully them, right?" Manman said, a ball of fire rolling in her mouth. The three dogs barked busily— "Woof—" "Woof woof—" "Woof woof woof—" Sally couldn't help but laugh out loud again, "You've learned to threaten now. Mom is going to meet a guest, you play nicely with the three dogs." "Got it, Mom." Manman stood on Xiaoer, the middle dog, and pointed at the pond, "Catch fish!" "Woof woof—" The three dogs carried her and charged into the water. The old lady watched Manman without blinking an eye. Seeing this, Bai Kaixin laughed and said, "Madam, are you missing your grandson?" "Not a grandson, but I do have a granddaughter," the old lady said, looking at Manman with a smile. Despite her old age, her kindly smile was captivating. Bai Kaixin thought to himself: The old lady must have been a great beauty back in her youth... Sally, with her big belly, entered the VIP hall and noted the simple tea on the table; she said to Bai Kaixin, "Get some fresh tea, some pastries and fruit." "Right away, Sister Sally. This is Madam Ming, have a slow chat," Bai Kaixin left. The moment Sally saw the old lady, she knew who she was, Ming Linyuan's mother, because her eyes were so similar. "I am Sally, please have a seat Madam Ming." "No need, I am just looking at my granddaughter," said Madam Ming, standing by the window. Sally walked over and called out to Manman, "Manman—come here for a moment." Manman immediately flapped her wings and flew over with effort, "Mom." Then Manman saw Madam Ming and the tuft of hair on her head suddenly stood on end. Madam Ming's eyes brimmed with tears, "You are called Manman, right? I'm your grandmother." "What's a grandmother?" Manman tilted her little head, curiously asking Sally. Sally laughed and said, "Your dad's mom." "Oh, hello grandmother, I'm Manman, my full name is Ming Yuzhen, my dad is called Ming Linyuan, my mom is called Sally, and I have another daddy named Zong Silu, I like Daddy Zong the best. Also, I just met my big brother yesterday. He's a Golden-eyed Black Panther Beast, and he looks so handsome. I love to eat meat just like big brother," Manman blurted eagerly. Little rascal pretty much spilled all her family secrets. Sally was speechless. Madam Ming was not surprised at all, as if she already knew; she watched Manman with a kind smile, "Now you have another grandmother, do you like that?" "Like it!" Manman flapped her wings, her little eyes sparkling, "Then does grandmother have a gift for me?" Sally inwardly exclaimed, 'Oh no,' this little girl really can't hold her tongue, "Manman!" Then she apologized to Madam Ming, "I'm sorry, the child was rude, I will discipline her strictly in the future." "The child is fine, there is no problem at all," Madam Ming scrutinized Manman. "You really are beautiful, the most beautiful young Phoenix from the Phoenix Clan I have ever seen." This saying... it was more or less equivalent to 'my kid is the prettiest, none of the others can compare.' Madam Ming took off a golden bracelet from her wrist, "Of course, I have prepared a gift for Manman. It's all in this Fengxi Bracelet. You just need to drop a drop of your blood on it to open the bracelet, and you can take anything you want from inside." Manman looked at her little paws, "Mom, bleed, Manman wants the treasure." Sally: "..." "Who did she inherit this greed from?" "Her father doesn't seem like that sort of person!" Sally helplessly retrieved a needle from her space, a wisp of flame emerged from her fingertips, which she used to sterilize the needle before pricking the tip of Manman's claw, drawing out a bead of golden-red blood. Madam Ming hurriedly offered the bracelet, "Quickly, the child is in pain." Sally: "...It's fine, this girl is tough." Indeed, throughout the entire needle-pricking and blood-extracting process, the little one didn't even blink. The golden bracelet absorbed the blood bead, emitting a blinding burst of light that contained the phantom image of a Phoenix Bird, releasing a clear, loud, beautiful call of the Phoenix. Upon seeing this scene, Madam Ming's anxious expression finally relaxed, and she chuckled, "The Fengxi Bracelet is the inheritance artifact of the Clan Leader's position in our Ghost Chariot Phoenix Clan, only those of pure blood can activate it. Manman will now be the next Clan Leader of our Ghost Chariot Phoenix Clan." Sally was astonished and asked Madam Ming, "What about Ming Linyuan?" "Him? He's just acting as Clan Leader to handle clan affairs, not the Clan Leader. The Fengxi Bracelet has never recognized him as its master." Sally didn't ask further; Ming Linyuan was the fourth son of the Demon Emperor, meaning that years ago, Madam Ming bore Ming Linyuan with the Demon Emperor, not the White Phoenix Clan. Ming Linyuan, being of Demon Emperor's bloodline, naturally wasn't recognized by the inheritance artifact. Having understood everything, Sally looked again at the Fengxi Bracelet now fitted around Manman's tiny claw. At that moment, it had transformed into a small golden ring, quite attractive at that. "Manman, quickly thank your grandmother," Sally told Manman. After all, this welcoming gift was massive, bestowing the position of the Clan Leader right off the bat. Those who fought for power and profit for the sake of ascending would certainly be green with envy. This was a chosen heir, born with a crown in their bloodline! Manman glanced down at her own little paw and even wiggled the small golden ring, "It's not as pretty as daddy's earring." "...Your father's earring is a Defense Artifact," Sally said with a chuckle, "it's similar to this." He had also given her one. In fact, to her, the Offspring System was more useful than any earring. But since he had given it to her, it wouldn't be right to refuse. Manman, having gained a new treasure, felt showy and flapped her chubby, fluffy wings to go play with the three dogs. Bai Kaixin brought in fresh tea and desserts. Sally personally poured tea for Madam Ming, "Madam, aside from seeing Manman, is there anything else you came for?" "When a son grows up he should marry, when a daughter grows up she should wed. You and Manman's father have already had one child and there's another on the way, you ought to have a wedding ceremony. When do you plan to have it? Tell me whatever you want, and we can arrange it." "..." She's urging marriage! Never saw that coming. However, she probably couldn't agree, "Sorry, Madam, the child in my womb isn't of Ming Linyuan's bloodline. And besides, I don't want to marry him." Madam Ming slightly frowned and then, looking at her belly, said with a smile, "Hmm, I won't meddle too much in the young people's affairs. There's just one thing I hope you can agree to." "What is it, Madam?" Sally replied with slight guilt. Madam Ming gazed out the window towards Manman, who was still playing with the three dogs, "She is the only pureblood of our Ghost Chariot Phoenix Clan, and even more precious as she is female. So, I want to take Manman back to the Ghost Chariot Phoenix Clan to teach her our clan's Secret Technique. Of course, if she misses you, I will send her back." "It all depends on whether Manman is willing. I do hope she can learn the Secret Technique." "Then you speak to her about it. I'll come to pick her up tomorrow." "Uh, should I be the one to tell her?" Was she being set up!?
