Chapter 1474 Self-Humiliation 3 ” (2/2)

The question was good, a reasonable one at that; however, it was First Elder who spoke up to answer it instead of the woman herself.

“Madam Bai Ning, if I’m not mistaken, you must’ve taken a special drug to forcibly enhance your powers, didn’t you? And that drug, it’s only viable for one attack, is that why you let him leave?”

That’s to say, the raging storm of an attack Bai Ning did just now was indeed done at the help of outside materials, just that it’s very special and unique to the point where Keeper Ling didn’t realize it due to his stunned mindset. If the old grumpy Keeper had insisted and had a stronger spirit to fight, he would’ve immediately exposed the deception.

Naturally she wouldn’t have done this if she could kill in one blow, but that’s simply too hard….

“Also, I took into consideration of the current fighting force we have. My daughter is not around and my son-in-law is wounded as you can see. In that case, I feared my prolonged battle with Keeper Ling would draw out the other Keepers in the Celestial Palace. By then the tide would change and we would be on the defensive again and likely unable to cope with the other side’s reinforcement.”

Then smirking mischievously like she’s a fox as well, Bai Ning clearly felt proud at what she’s achieved: “So, I took advantage of his mindset and offered him a retreat. I knew he would be shocked by my incredible growth and would waver. It’s a gamble and it worked.”

“I understand now Grandmother!” Di Ling Yan starts giggling like a little child, “Grandmother is so smart, scaring that scary old man away!”

“Ling Yan is so clever.” Bai Ning also starts to chuckle at the sight and went ahead to pinch her grandchild’s nose as a tease.

Proudly cocking her head high, the praise was definitely working on the princess: “That is of course, I am Mother’s daughter so of course I’m clever.”

In the mind of this little pipsqueak, Bai Yan was the smartest human being out there. As the genetic heir of said being, she’s bound to be smart as well!
