"Cripple your own Spiritual Power?" Jian Yuntian looked at Jian He in disbelief, then shook his head violently. "No, He'er, your father's cultivation was never that high to begin with; I cannot abolish my Spiritual Power. Father promises never to cause trouble for you again, but I cannot abolish it—I won't be able to survive."
"Did you ever consider whether my mother and I could survive back then? My mother died, and I was sold into Qingfeng Pavilion. It was only thanks to the master's kindness in buying me that I have the life I have today. What if I had been bought by those lechers? What if I had ended up in a brothel—did you ever think of that? Now, being asked merely to cripple your own Spiritual Power is too much for you to accept? Or would you prefer me to do it myself? Think carefully: you only have me as a daughter. If any harm comes to me, your Tianyishi Villa will be gone entirely, and this is your lifelong hard work."
Hearing Jian He's words, Jian Yuntian fell silent. He truly did not want to abolish his Spiritual Power, but the strongest person left in Tianyishi Villa was just Jiang Lan's bodyguard. Those pharmacists possessed passable medical skills, but they were utterly useless in a fight, and now even the bodyguard was dead. The entire Tianyishi Villa was no match for Lingxiao Hall. No matter what, Tianyishi Villa would end up in Jian He's hands anyway; she was his daughter, after all, so he might as well grant her wish.
