Kapitel 834: Chapter 834: You threaten me?

"My mother is sick," Lan Mengqin said in a low voice.

"Ah?" Qian Lei was greatly surprised, "What illness? Is it serious?"

Lan Mengqin nodded slightly, "It's very serious; even Auntie Bi Ji can't heal her. It's a hereditary disease in our family. It can occur after the age of forty. The patriarchs of our clan always possess high talent, but they also seem to carry a curse—none have lived past fifty. My mother has fallen ill after all, Auntie Bi Ji said it's because our bloodline lacks some special components. No technology, even that of the federation's highest, is of any use. Life energy supplements are useless too, whatever is added just drains away. I am my mother's only daughter, the inevitable next clan leader. I must go back, take her place, and guard our clanspeople. I have no choice. And, I want to stay by my mother's side during her last years."
