As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 1679: Chapter 440: If Dad Were Xi Xi, What Would He Do? The Temple God of Yun E and Zhou Peng’s Reincarnation [Monthly Ticket Request]_2

The crimson light curtain shot up to the sky, as if a crimson mist suddenly exploded inside a transparent glass sphere, expanding rapidly like a tidal wave.

The originally pitch-black night immediately brightened.

The sky above the entire city turned the color of blood!

Light descended upon the metropolis shrouded in darkness, yet it brought death with it.

Xi Xi quietly peeked out from the alley, and saw on the metropolis wall, evil people of the Corpse God Cult one after another, with Corpse Qi and Death Qi swirling, arranging a terrifying slaughter formation, like a millstone, and all the citizens and cultivators within the city turned into beans on the millstone, about to be ground into powder.

A horrific will emerged from the center of that millstone, as if an ugly yet twisted face was extending from the millstone, shrieking, roaring across the entire city.

That is... the Corpse God Will!

Comparable to the Absolute Peak, the Corpse God Will!

Seeing such a scene, Xi Xi understood that the Corpse God Cult and King Ping Luan Ji Mo Li had truly joined forces completely.

Xi Xi was not unfamiliar with King Ping Luan; when she was little, Ji Mo Li’s youngest son, Ji Hai Hui, had competed with her, forming a bond of enmity since then.

The hatred between Xi Xi and Ji Mo Li’s family was intensifying.

”Xi Xi! Go!”

Just as Xi Xi was lost in thought, a low shout suddenly echoed in her ears.

Pulling Xi Xi’s thoughts back instantly.

Then, Xi Xi discovered that the four of them hiding in the alley all began to emit a faint glow...

Roar—!!!

Above the heavenly dome, within the enormous formation, the half-struggling form of the Corpse God Will swept its ugly and twisted face fiercely towards the direction of the alley.

”Exposed!”

”We’ve been discovered!”

Xi Xi’s heart sank slightly.

However, she did not panic too much; by now, she was no longer the little girl leaving the Qian Yuan Divine Sect for the first time. From Guangling Dao all the way to Jiangnan Dao, she had experienced many battles and dangerous situations.

Xi Xi clenched the Thunder Chess Piece in her five fingers, intending to directly teleport out of the city using the Thunder Chess Piece.

However, to Xi Xi’s shock.

The faint blood light falling upon them seemed to come alive.

”This is...”

Xi Xi’s complexion changed slightly.

But it was too late.

Buzz—

The original Thunder Chess Piece could cover Yun E, Jin Taixui, and Zhou Peng, allowing them to leave together.

However, under the shroud of this crimson glory, after Xi Xi’s teleportation ended, she realized she had teleported out of Luoyun City alone.

Appearing in the chess piece left outside the city earlier.

Wind and rain mixed with icy snow; Xi Xi clutched the Thunder Chess Piece, her face pale.

”Sister Yun E, Fatty Zhou, and Jin Taixui!”

Xi Xi murmured.

In the next moment, she abruptly turned her head towards Luoyun City’s direction, her face filled with panic and worry.

”I left them... lost in Luoyun City.”

”Lost in that city... about to be massacred!”

Xi Xi’s eyes were suddenly filled with anxiety; her heart seemed to turn icy cold.

She had not left another Thunder Chess Piece in Luoyun City, so she couldn’t teleport back.

Now, at seven years old, only one choice remained before her.

To flee?

Or... go back to find her friends?

Facing the Absolute Peak level Corpse God Will, Xi Xi, who was only seven, was definitely no match.

Even though Xi Xi could kill the Martial Saint Gu Chuan of the Heavenly Pill Divine Sect.

But that Gu Chuan was only a First Level Martial Saint, incomparable to the Absolute Peak level Corpse God Will!

”If it were Dad... what would he do?”

Xi Xi steadied her mind, her little tummy quivered, and she started to think.

What would Dad do?

Xi Xi suddenly opened her eyes.

If it were Dad, he definitely wouldn’t abandon his friends, right!

Without any hesitation, Xi Xi took a step and rushed towards Luoyun City.

At seven years old, even though she had witnessed the ugly evils of the human world.

She still maintained the purity in her heart.

She would fear, but never give up!

This, perhaps.

Is the meaning of training.

...

...

The flying sword darted through the Cloud Dome, pulling a trail of silver light.

After informing Lv Taibai to head towards Wenling Prefecture in Jiangnan Dao and Luoyun City, Lv Taibai immediately accelerated the speed of his sword ride; originally, Lv Taibai intended to proceed leisurely.

However, Lv Taibai had not seen Xi Xi for a long time, so a sense of anticipation grew in his heart, mainly to show off in front of Xi Xi that he had broken through to the Divine Tribulation Realm.

Li Che sat cross-legged on the flying sword.

His divided mind focused on the image reflected from the Heaven and Earth chessboard.

It was the scene of Xi Xi’s training.

Seeing the little girl clutching the Thunder Chess Piece, wanting to teleport away with Yun E and the others, yet only teleporting herself, Li Che’s brow slightly furrowed.

”Xi Xi’s Primordial Spirit is not strong enough, the descending Corpse God Will increased the pressure for the Thunder Chess Piece to take people away.”

”Most importantly... Xi Xi and the others were all tainted by Death Qi.”

Li Che, as one who possesses the Chess Saint’s Dao Fruit, naturally figured out at once the main reason why Xi Xi failed to teleport with others using the Thunder Chess Move.

It wasn’t the Thunder Chess Piece’s problem; the problem lay with Xi Xi and the others.

The formation covered the entire Luoyun City, the blood light flourished, illuminating the entire city, and the blood light shining on Xi Xi and the others’ bodies was the beginning of Death Qi’s taint.
