Chapter 474: Chapter 472: Who’s Coming Down This Time?
…
Beast Emperor’s Palace.
Xiaoqi looked at Zi Qi who was reaching out to her. Then with a gentle hop, she jumped onto his hand and rubbed her little paw in his palm.
“…”
“Father?” Xiaoqi tilted her little head, not understanding what Zi Qi wanted to do.
Seeing her cute, stunned face, Zi Qi held his forehead and decided to make it clear, “Did your mother give you the birthday gift for Father to give to me?”
“Yes, Father.” Xiaoqi spoke and took off her Little Storage Bag from around her neck, opening the seal.
Little Shiqi, who had been playing with a ball, saw this and immediately dropped the ball to join in.
Xiaoqi’s way of finding things was to dump out all her treasures… which meant he had the opportunity to choose his favorite treasures.
Sally stretched as she came out from the sleeping chamber, seeing her husband and children gathered together, her voice soft and lazy, “What are you all doing?”
Zi Qi looked at her with exceptional warmth and tenderness, “Awake?”
“Yeah.” Sally stretched again.
Xiaoqi poured out everything, and at once, the scents of all sorts of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures spread out through the chamber.
Xiaojin, who had been flying in circles overhead, immediately dived down, following the scent of treasures into the chamber.
Putao, who had just entered the palace, caught the scent of the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures and his eyes lit up. He said to Zong Silu, “Dad, Sister Xiaoqi is organizing her treasures again. Your son wants to go see.”
“Go ahead.” Zong Silu nodded.
Yu Yan also returned from outside and greeted Zong Silu with a nod, “Mr. Zong—”
“Where have you been?” Zong Silu asked with a smile.
“It’s another disappearance case. Your Majesty asked me to investigate the last known locations of the missing people for any signs of sand.”
“Sand? What kind of sand?”
“Time Sand Beast, do you know what that is?”
“Actually, I don’t. Tell me about it.” Zong Silu was very curious. He liked reading because books helped him solve mysteries.
Seeing Putao arrive, Sally opened her arms and called out, “My Putao has come, let Mum give you a hug.”
Obediently, Putao nestled into Sally’s arms, “Mum, when did you come back to the palace?”
“Yesterday. Did you sense that Mum was back, so you came to see me especially?” Sally stroked his smooth and soft fur; his health index was also 100%. Zong Silu really did an excellent job raising children.
“Yes, Mum.” Putao clung tightly to her.
Sally kissed his forehead, “Go on, Xiaoqi is distributing treasures, grab what you like quickly.” 𝖓𝔬𝖛𝔭𝔲𝖇.𝔠𝔬𝖒
Xiaoqi dove into the pile of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, starting to rummage through them.
Sally walked over to Zi Qi, one arm wrapped around her chest, the other stroking her cheek, seeming somewhat hesitant to speak.
“What’s wrong?” Zi Qi pulled her into his embrace, fitting just right.
Sally puffed her cheeks, a bit puzzled, “Have you noticed, our daughters lack a bit of talent in organizing things? You could say they are untidy.”
“Yona and Shishi are quite good though,” said Zi Qi with a smile.
“But Manman, Xiaoqi, Xiaoshi, Little Shiwu, and Little Miqi… When they search for things, they have to pull out everything, making a big mess. I’m not like that, am I? I take only what I need.”
“It’s not your fault. It’s from Qing Linghuan, Frans, Ming Linyuan, and Rong Ruo’s genetics.”
“Right, I think so too.”
“Actually, Xiaoqi is not too bad. She only likes certain things for about a hundred days. After that, she loses interest. She regularly sorts out her belongings, even though it’s a mess, the amount doesn’t keep piling up.”
“Found it, Father is here,” Xiaoqi said, handing an exquisite gift box to Zi Qi.
Zi Qi opened the box, inside was a mechanical watch. He immediately wore it on his wrist and said to Sally, “I really like it.”
“Don’t just talk, show some sincerity~” Sally pouted her lips.
Zi Qi kissed Sally…
Xiaoqi ran off in a flash, beginning to tidy up her belongings, tossing all the items she didn’t like to Little Shiqi, Xiaojin, and Putao.
These three really hit the jackpot!
…
Asura Realm.
Little Fengning was playing with building blocks, his bored little round face expressionless.
Welly sat beside him, holding the divine battle challenge scroll and deep in thought.
Moru the Basque was anxiously pacing in circles, “My king, please let me fight again.”
“You want to court death against the newly arrived Divine Emperor Haotian? Fine, I’ll immediately add your name to the list,” Welly said, reaching for the ink brush.
Moru was startled, and in the next instant, he snatched the ink brush from Welly’s hand, “No no no, I’ll wait, just a little longer.”
“I know you want to find the Southern Emperor, but just like me, he’s now one of Yanyan’s Beast Husbands,” Welly informed Moru of some very unfortunate news.
“…” Moru’s eyes instantly lost their light.
“How could this happen!”
“Why couldn’t it?”
“A mermaid’s beastly desires are comparable to a dragon’s, how could that Rat Clan girl possibly…”
“They also have a daughter who’s quite adorable,” Welly remembered Xiaoqi with fondness.
“Son, how do you get along with Sister Xiaoqi?”
“I’m going to marry Sister Xiaoqi when I grow up,” Little Fengning said while assembling blocks.
Welly laughed, “Oh, you can’t do that~”
“Why can’t I?”
“Because you are siblings.”
“But when we play games, Sister Xiaoqi is my wife.”
“That’s just make-believe, it doesn’t count for real life.”
“Oh.” Little Fengning handed the building instruction sheet to Welly, “Dad, I can’t find this one, help me look for it.”
Welly immediately helped Little Fengning search for the block, and upon finding it, handed it to him.
Little Fengning continued to assemble, “Dad, I want to go back to the bookstore.”
“Okay.” Welly readily agreed.
Moru watched their interaction enviously, “What a pity, I really do like the Southern Emperor. I’d go through Nirvana to become a female demon for him.”
“You could try,” Welly said, examining his face, “Mermaids are lustful and go into heat quite frequently, at least four times a year. Yanyan might not always be by his side every time; you could turn into a female and have plenty of chances.”
“If you really want to leave the Asura Realm for good, then perhaps the king himself would need to intervene. For the upcoming battles in the Divine Realm, we could arrange a domain lord for each fight. We should also prepare early.”
…
Time Sand Beasts hunt those imbued with time energy, yet even Xiaomei can’t detect it.
Welly could see it, but as he was in the Asura Realm and the Beast World was not his territory, he wouldn’t interfere rashly.
“If Rong Ruo has died, it doesn’t necessarily mean Rong Wu has. As long as Rong Wu lives, so does he, making it difficult to consider Rong Ruo’s death a reference point.”
Sally had gone to the Southern District and specifically inquired about Rong Ruo’s matter. Although they are now two separate people, they share the same lifeline, just duplicated into two.
Zi Qi thought of someone, “Zi Yuan had a Beast Husband who died before time was reversed. Zi Yuan was quite upset at that time, drowning her sorrows in alcohol every night before she could sleep; I remember it vividly. After time was reversed, I reminded Zi Yuan, and now he is alive.”
“Dean Zi is truly sentimental!” Sally recalled the Offspring System Y37856, knowing that Zi Yuan had suffered for a long time.
