Chapter 1303 Leaving the Sorrow Behind

The Mortal World.

Bettany held Jean’s hand and said, “I know that you can’t stay here forever. When it’s time to go back, just go. I’ll be fine.”

Jean knelt on the ground, resting her head on Bettany’s lap, and cooed, “But I don’t want to leave.”

Bettany smiled. “Don’t trouble Lilly too much. Sometimes, using connections and seeking favors is within. the realm of human relationships, but you also have to consider whether you’ll bring trouble to others. If too many people ask for favors, it can be burdensome!

Jean thought about it and agreed. Last time, she heard the father-daughter duo say that there was a major traitor in the underworld, as written on Emperor Greenbow’s Stone Scroll. But after all this time, there had been no sign of this individual. No matter how one looked at it, it was unsettling.

Bettany chimed in. “Then we should go back quickly!”

With some time passed, she felt somewhat relieved. Her seventh son had gone down, and with Lilly taking care of him, she didn’t have to worry too much. Plus, her son had sacrificed himself for the country, dying a heroic death. She wasn’t afraid he wouldn’t reincarnate into a good life. That was already good enough,
