Chapter 621: Chapter 619: Destruction Begets Creation
Xiaoba lay quietly in the nest, and even the Guardian Golden Dragon on the shell had ceased moving, which baffled Sally.
Her connection with Xiaoba was not as strong as Zi Qi’s, so she couldn’t figure out what was going on.
From the System Space, she took out two Little Storage Bags and placed them in the nest.
The Little Storage Bags that would normally be quickly stashed away by Xiaoba remained untouched this time.
Sally asked Xiaomei, “Is Xiaoba about to hatch?”
Xiaomei replied, “No, he has fallen into a deep sleep. If left undisturbed by external forces, he will wake up in approximately one hundred and three years.”
“This child!” Sally was speechless, “Yangyang and Xiaoxiao are about to hatch.”
“Yangyang and Xiaoxiao will hatch in five months, nine days, eight hours, and thirty-four minutes,” Xiaomei responded precisely.
“…”
Sally told You Hao that he didn’t need to keep vigil, but You Hao was worried about the what-ifs, and not to mention five months – he would wait and watch, unmoving, for five years if necessary.
In the end, Sally let him be.
For him and Qing Linghuan, their children were more important than their own lives.
Manman looked at Xiaoba, “Mother, why isn’t little brother Xiaoba hatching?”
Sally smiled, “He has fallen into a deep sleep; it will probably take some time before he wakes up.”
“Oh, I wonder what little brother Xiaoba will look like when he grows up?”
“He should look like Little Shiqi, I guess, since they are brothers from the same father.”
“But I’m looking less and less like my brother, and so is Little Shiyi, he is the Treasure-spitting Mouse’s little brother.”
“That’s normal, because the Talents you were born with are not the same. Look at Xiao Susu and Little Lulu, even though they’re twins, they are also quite different.”
“Mm, Sister Little Lulu is especially cute.”
“Too mischievous, even more so than you were as a child, not at all like a little girl.”
“Not at all, Manman thinks Little Lulu is just right.”
“You’re the only one who thinks so,” Sally chuckled. Then she kissed Xiaoba and carried Manman away with her.
After they left, the Little Golden Dragon slid off the shell, collected the two Little Storage Bags, and then coiled back on top of the shell.
…
At the backyard of the Suji Bookstore.
Welly plucked two green vegetables from the garden.
As he stood up, his movements suddenly paused, then he turned to face Sally, “When did you get back?”
“The day before yesterday,” Sally looked at the vibrant green vegetables in his hand, “I have something to ask you.”
“Go ahead,” Welly responded.
“If you and Jian had to choose one to die, who would you choose?”
“Me,” Welly answered promptly, as if he had already contemplated this question.
“Why would it be him?”
“You can’t kill Jian, he would just return to the Origin Realm and fall asleep. But if I die, I’ll disappear.”
Sally looked at him, as the Divine Sword appeared in her hand.
Welly saw the sword but remained calm, as if waiting for her next move.
Sally raised her hand…
“Mother—” Little Fengning suddenly appeared, holding Little Beibei.
“Aren’t you supposed to be in the Imperial Palace? How come you are here?” Sally hurried to put away the sword, but Welly stepped forward voluntarily, pressing his abdomen against the blunted tip, driving it into his body.
Sally’s eyes widened in shock, “You!”
Little Fengning’s face immediately turned pale!
“He’s known this day would come; don’t worry about him not being able to handle it,” Welly replied.
He then looked at Little Beibei, “I’m sorry, I couldn’t save you back then.”
Little Beibei shook her head, “It’s okay, Little Beibei is all better now. Moreover, mom said that there’s Rule Profundity in Little Beibei’s body. The Main System has also started helping me develop my Talent System, and I’ll soon be like my older and younger brothers and sisters.”
“That’s wonderful.” Welly smiled weakly, his whole body collapsing towards Sally.
Sally quickly caught him and scolded Little Fengning in a low voice: “Why did you bring Little Beibei here!”
Little Fengning might look like a child, but given his experiences, his talent, and his mindset, he could not be treated as just a child.
Little Fengning looked at Welly, his pitch-black eyes unblinking, “Dad told me a long time ago that he would die and he has already said his goodbyes. But his heart was uneasy because of Little Beibei, so…”
Sally looked at Little Beibei, who had her ears drooping, feeling incredibly guilty and not daring to look up at Little Fengning, her body curling up into a tiny ball.
“Take Little Beibei with you, find Uncle Zi, and tell him exactly what happened, and also everything dad said to you, without hiding anything.”
After speaking, Sally left Beast World with Welly.
Little Beibei sobbed out loud, “Brother Ning, I don’t want Uncle Wen to die. I’m not in pain anymore, I like Uncle Wen, he’s not a bad uncle, so why does mom want to kill Uncle Wen?”
“Don’t worry, my dad won’t die, let’s go find Uncle Zi.” Little Fengning took out an Instantaneous Movement Talisman and returned with Little Beibei to Eastern Immortal Palace.
Upon knowing what had happened, Zi Qi took Little Beibei from Little Fengning’s arms, “Your mom really doesn’t stay still, does she?”
Little Beibei threw herself into Zi Qi’s embrace, “Uncle Wen won’t really die, right?”
“Your mom has an account book in her heart, and anyone who owes her has to pay back, one by one.” Saying this, Zi Qi looked towards Little Fengning, “Your dad also knows very well, they owed your mom.”
“Yes, my dad told me, and so did that person.” Little Fengning nodded.
“For Little Beibei, they also need to give you an explanation.”
Sister Xiaoqi burst into the room from outside, followed by a Little Bell. The two sisters were purely relying on physical strength, panting as they ran.
“Father Emperor, you called for Xiaoqi?”
“Where did you go?” Zi Qi looked at the two of them, while Little Beibei in his arms was itching to play with Xiaoqi.
Xiaoqi replied: “We were digging holes in the garden, seeing who could dig deeper.”
“I want to join.” Little Beibei said.
Xiaoqi looked at Zi Qi.
Zi Qi said, “Wait a moment. Father Emperor is asking you, does Little Beibei resemble your mother?”
“Yes.” Xiaoqi responded, “Even their luck is very similar.” 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Zi Qi stroked Little Beibei, “So Little Beibei can understand it like this, you stood in for your mom and blocked a deathly calamity. Imagine, if your mom went through that kind of pain, wouldn’t you feel heartbroken?”
“Little Beibei would feel a thousand or even ten thousand times more pain. Little Beibei is no longer mad.” Now she just wanted to dig rat holes.
Xiaoqi teleported next to her and reached out with her paw to stroke her head, “In the future, everything will go smoothly for you, and you will get many, many treasures.”
“Sister Xiaoqi, do you think Uncle Wen will die?” Little Beibei asked worryingly.
“He won’t. As long as Uncle Jian is alive, Uncle Wen won’t die. Right, Little Fengning?”
Little Fengning nodded, “But if my dad doesn’t want to live himself…”
“Don’t worry, Uncle Wen is too fond of you to let go. Also, he doesn’t look like he’ll have a short life.” Xiaoqi replied.
“Oh?” Zi Qi was surprised, “Did you awaken the talent your dad has for seeing people’s life and death?”
Xiaoqi, “I awakened it in the Sea God Palace, now I can see a thousand years of lifespan.”
“Well, take Little Beibei and have fun first. Little Fengning, you stay.” Zi Qi said.
Xiaoqi, along with Little Bell and Little Beibei, ran out to play with her other brothers and sisters.
Little Fengning watched them leave and then lowered his head.
Zi Qi extended his hand, “Come here.”
Little Fengning immediately snuggled over, “Uncle Zi.”
Zi Qi held him on his lap, caressing his head, “Don’t worry. Your mom has been stuck in a bottleneck with the ‘Supreme One Technique’ for a while now, this was your dad’s wish too, wanting to break apart this thorn in her heart.”
“Really?” Little Fengning lifted his tear-filled eyes.
“Yes, without destruction, there can be no construction. This matter with Little Beibei, it’s like a fishbone stuck in the throat, causing pain; once it’s removed and blood is seen, it will all be better.”
