Chapter 633: Chapter 631: ‘Living History’ Tells a Story
Jian fetched a blanket and spread it on the grass. “Son, do you want to take a nap?”
Little Dot shook his head. “I want to sleep in the egg cabin, not this.”
Sally took out the egg cabin and opened it up, and Little Dot immediately went inside.
“Little Dot seems easy to talk to, with a gentle personality, but in reality, he has his own opinions.”
“I can see that, it’s all because of Zi Qi indulging him. If he were with me, he would have to enjoy raw vegetables and meat as if they were delicacies. Sleeping on the grass would be great, and he would have to lie down even if it were all rocks.”
“No wonder Little Fengning likes living at someone else’s house.” Sally gave him a sidelong glance. “With the way you spoil them, no wonder they run away.”
“…”
“Today is the last day; tomorrow morning we’re heading back to the Immortal Realm.”
“Can we stay a few more days?” Jian said through clenched teeth as he looked at the vegetable leaves in his hand. “I could learn how to cook from Zulu.”
“Don’t. There’s no need to trouble Zulu. Plus, it’s not about cooking, I have other plans. And with so many kids, Frans can’t look after them all.”
“I can handle it, give them to me.”
“…Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Do you think I would?” Little Beibei’s situation was like a thorn in her heart. Even if one day the thorn were removed, it would still leave a scar.
The hopeful look on Jian’s face disappeared, and although there was a reason for everything, he was indeed responsible. He didn’t regret it, but he hadn’t expected her to take it so seriously.
“You have so many children, can’t you let go of one? Isn’t she the one you resurrected?”
“What do you mean, you foresaw that I would resurrect Little Beibei?” Sally stared at him.
Jian nodded. “Yeah.”
Sally scoffed. “Then tell me, why did you sacrifice Little Beibei?”
Jian looked at Sally… and fell silent again.
“Tell me the reason, and I’ll spend an extra day with you and Little Dot.” Sally replied, although she had an answer in her heart, she still wanted to hear it from him.
Jian held up both hands in a gesture of surrender. “Ten days!”
“One day!” Sally glared, “Take it or leave it.”
“Two days! That’s the least I can do. I promised my son we would go to the Capital City in Rouran Country.”
“Fine.” Sally nodded. But she needed to send Frans a Sound Transmission Talisman, to ask him to take the children for a couple more days.
“Little Beibei, Yangyang, and Xiaoxiao were born in the Asura Realm. One of these three children broke through the Restriction imposed by the Heavenly Dao on the Asura Realm. I originally thought it was Yangyang and Xiaoxiao, since they are Leviathan Eggs, but it turned out to be that underdeveloped little female rat.”
“Hmmph, three children, doesn’t it mean that all three must be sacrificed!” Sally grew angry upon hearing this.
Jian neither denied nor confirmed because in reality, there was only Little Beibei, without any ‘ifs’. He took out a box from the Different Space and handed it to Sally, “This is a Dark Rule Fragment. Through it, you can comprehend the ‘Obliterate Sun and Moon’ rule of Dark Mysteries.”
“Manman represents the Dark Rule.” Sally accepted it.
“Yes,” Jian continued, “One hundred and ten Ancient Demons, each one was my former war general.”
“Wait, you said one hundred and ten?”
“Yes.”
“But hasn’t it always been one hundred and nine?”
“You forgot to include the soul. What you found was only the physical body. They took Little Beibei’s place to bear the punishment of Heavenly Dao—the Oblivion. The price for Little Beibei to create the sun and moon was the sacrifice of a life. Either I personally sacrificed her, splitting her into one hundred and ten pieces, so the Heavenly Dao couldn’t find the complete her, only able to take a fragment. Or she was completely sacrificed by the Heavenly Dao, swallowed along with the Asura Realm by the New Demon Realm.”
“The New Demon Realm plundering?” Sally was astonished.
Jian raised his head to look at the sky, “The universe is alive. Each realm, each continent, is living, and they compete with each other, even to the point of plundering. Some continents eventually merge into one whole, while others that were once a single piece have split into many…”
This seemed to be straying from the topic, but Sally wanted to know more, so she didn’t interrupt. She listened to this “living history” narrate the changes from the beginning of the universe until now.
She even woke up Little Dot to listen to the story together…
…
At the Holy Palace in the Western Immortal Realm,
The Frans that Sally was worried about being too busy, in reality, wasn’t busy at all, as others took the initiative to help him.
Ethan and Luo Chuan followed the youngsters like shadows.
Especially Ethan, who, upon seeing the breathtakingly beautiful Xiao Tiantian, couldn’t take his eyes off him. Frans gave him a camera to take photos or record the children’s daily life, but all the pictures ended up being of Xiao Tiantian!
Luo Chuan really liked Little Lulu, who was mischievous and clever. Plus, she had just been born not a long time ago and was curious about everything, believing anything you told her. As for Little Miqi, she had her siblings and didn’t need him as a godfather…
Frans, holding Little Bell, approached Ethan, “Take a photo of me and Little Bell, together.”
“Click—Click—” Ethan pressed the shutter several times consecutively, then looked at the photos and asked Frans, “When is the Queen coming back?”
Frans replied, “I just received a Sound Transmission Talisman. She’ll be back in two days.”
Ethan’s lens turned again, focusing on Xiao Tiantian, who was digging a Rat Hole. His snow-white fluffy tail wagged back and forth, incredibly adorable. He instantly pressed the shutter dozens of times…
“Let the Queen come back later, the children are too much fun.” Especially regarding Ethan’s own child, right now he was earnestly trying to lure… no, cajole Xiao Tiantian into being his godson.
Frans saw through his intention, “There’s no way Xiao Tiantian will acknowledge you. He’s nothing like his father. If Qing Linghuan has two sly tricks, then this son has two hundred.”
“The smarter, the better,” a determined gleam exploded in Ethan’s eyes.
“With Little Shisi and Little Shiwu, you had no chance, let alone with Xiao Tiantian,” Frans said as he walked away with Little Bell.
…
Sally learned quite a bit about the Beast World from Jian, the most important being Little Beibei’s sacrifice.
Turns out, Little Beibei did make a sacrifice; her soul Fragment was swallowed up by the New Demon Realm along with the Asura Realm.
But through the System’s power, she snatched back Little Beibei’s soul. It was just that Little Beibei’s soul had been tainted by Demonic Qi, giving birth to a demon spawn, which was that resentful split personality.
When the demon spawn disappeared, her Little Beibei was finally fully revived.
“You’ve been busying yourself for nothing and even put my daughter’s life on the line for free,” Sally said, still angry as she kicked him again.
Little Dot had an ‘it serves you right’ expression on his face.
Jian felt quite wronged, “…Who knew that Heavenly Dao would change the world’s structure to counterbalance me, creating a Demon Realm, with the Demon Lord also getting in the way. In the end, the Asura Realm couldn’t defeat the Demon Realm and got swallowed. And with you stirring things up, I could only let Heavenly Dao win one round first.”
“It’s because you’re not as skilled. Blaming me?” Sally kicked him another time as she spoke.
Jian didn’t dodge, taking it with a grin and even reached out to pat Little Dot in her arms, “I’m not at a loss, after all, I have a descendant now. Just wait until Heavenly Dao descends into the world. I’ll settle the score properly then! Right, son?”
“Right your head,” Sally was too lazy to bother with him, “Your pig brain isn’t even as good as Huanhuan’s.”
“That can’t be. I’m still much stronger than the Sly Fox,” Jian defended.
“But he knew long ago that Heavenly Dao had already descended into the Human Realm. How come you didn’t know?”
“…” A slap in the face!
