Jiaojiao did not resist and let Xuannv Niang's bamboo sticks beat her. Her face was as pale as paper, and her lips were trembling slightly, but she stubbornly refused to let go. Every time the bamboo sticks fell, her body would tremble violently, but there was no fear in her eyes, only deep helplessness and forbearance.

The pain came like a tide, but Jiaojiao seemed to feel nothing. Her heart was full of contradictions and pain. She didn't understand why Xuannv treated her like this, but she knew that resistance would only make things worse. She endured it all silently, wondering in her heart why her fate was so bumpy.

The bamboo sticks hit her body again and again, and Jiaojiao's eyes gradually became empty. She began to doubt whether her existence had any meaning and whether she really deserved to be treated like this. However, deep in her heart, she was unwilling to give up. She didn't want to be defeated by fate. She told herself that she must persevere, and maybe there would be a turning point in the future.

Xuan Nu Niang's face was full of anger, and she swung the bamboo stick in her hand even harder. She looked at Jiaojiao's stubborn appearance, and her anger grew even stronger. She felt that Jiaojiao was too ignorant and needed to be taught a lesson. But she did not see the flash of despair and hope in Jiaojiao's eyes.

"Sister, are you going to resist?" Xiaoyu said anxiously, his voice trembling with anxiety. His eyes were wide open, looking at Jiaojiao with worry, as if there was a burning flame in his eyes, eager to fight for his sister.

"It's okay, Xiaoyu, I can still bear these beatings." Jiaojiao comforted Xiaoyu. She forced a smile on her face, but the smile seemed so pale and weak. Her eyes were gentle and firm, as if telling Xiaoyu not to worry. Jiaojiao's heart was actually full of pain, but she didn't want Xiaoyu to worry about her.

"Sister, I don't want you to be beaten." Xiaoyu felt sorry for Jiaojiao, his eyes were slightly red, and his voice was full of sadness and reluctance. His small body was trembling slightly, as if he wanted to rush forward to block the beating for his sister, but he was afraid and did not dare to act rashly.

"It's okay, Xiaoyu. I'm paying for Xuannv now. When the cause and effect between Xuannv and Xuannv's mother is broken, I can be myself again." Jiaojiao has her own plans. There is a gleam of determination in her eyes. Although the pain in her body makes her almost unbearable, the faith in her heart has never wavered. She knows that the road she is taking is full of difficulties and obstacles, but for the ultimate liberation, in order to be able to truly be herself, she is willing to endure it all. She looked at Xiaoyu gently, trying to comfort him with her eyes and let him not worry too much. She believes that as long as she persists, the future will surely be bright.

"Sister, what do you mean?" Xiaoyu frowned and looked at Jiaojiao with confusion, as if she had not fully understood what she said.

"Xiao Yu!" Jiaojiao took a deep breath and looked into the distance with a firm gaze. "I have now become Xuannv, which means I must bear her cause and effect. Among all the causes and effects, the cause and effect between Xuannv and Xuannv is the deepest. If Xuannv continues to consume like this, then this cause and effect line will break. So, what I have to do is to cut off all the causes and effects of Xuannv, free myself from this identity, and truly return to myself. Only in this way can I get rid of the shackles of fate and regain control of my own life."

Jiaojiao's voice was calm and firm, as if she had made up her mind. She knew it was not an easy thing, but she was willing to work hard for it. Because only in this way could she find her own path and no longer be controlled by fate.

"I understand, sister, but you can't always be like this?" Xiaoyu felt sorry for Jiaojiao.

"It's okay, I can hold on. Besides, Xuannv's aptitude is low, so she can't hold on for long." Jiaojiao comforted Xiaoyu.

Sure enough, not long after, Xuannv stopped what she was doing. She stood aside, panting, with her hands on her hips, staring, her chest heaving, as if she was about to fall down in the next second. Indeed, at this time, she no longer had the slightest strength to continue beating. So, she threw the bamboo stick in her hand to the ground casually, and turned away.

Xuan Nu (Jiao Jiao) was still kneeling in the middle of the room, motionless. Her back and buttocks, which were beaten bloody, had long been numb with pain. Blood flowed down her body, soaking her clothes, but she dared not move easily. Because she knew that if she was not careful, it would trigger a more severe punishment from her mother. At this moment, she could only endure it all silently, waiting for time to pass slowly. Xuan Nu's mother just looked at her coldly, neither cleaning her wounds nor letting her stand up to rest.
