Chapter 659: Chapter 657: It’s All Because of Being Too Pretty~
Zi Qi said, “Little Dot wants to understand the Ten Witch Tribes. You and Xiaohao have been there, tell him about it.”
Pei Xuan glanced at the book ‘Myriad Demonic Beasts Compendium’ that Little Dot was just reading and understood that he was to answer questions and clear up any confusions.
“The Ten Witch Tribes, located not far from the Divine Mystical Leopard Clan on Lizhu Mountain, are surrounded by poisonous Spiritual Miasma. They are led by ten Demon Witch Elders, and there are also some Demon Witch Tribespeople who rarely make contact with the outside world. Xiaohao and I have visited them once, and Xiaohao was particularly liked by the Great Demon Witch Elder.”
“The book says that Demon Witches can communicate with heaven and earth.”
“Yes. More accurately, they belong to the Earth Spirit Tribe.”
“Can the earth also speak?”
“Yes, the earth has its unique language.”
“The Earth Spirit Tribe can hear these voices?”
“Yes. During the Great God and Demon War, the Demon Witch Tribe had foreseen the event and hid themselves from it. They are one of the few clans that the God and Demon War did not affect.”
Pei Xuan explained the races from the Myriad Demonic Beasts Compendium to Little Dot.
Zi Qi left without interrupting them.
By the time Little Dot was finally satisfied, the sky had already turned pitch-black.
“Little Dot has reached the age where he constantly asks ‘why’, you had a hard time,” Zi Qi said to Pei Xuan.
Pei Xuan, “It’s nothing, we should have let Zong Silu come, he is better at this, and I didn’t cover everything as comprehensively.”
“It’s fine, he’ll learn more when he starts school,” Zi Qi said, looking up at the bright moon in the sky. “Yanyan will bring the children back tomorrow.”
“Your Majesty, what about it?” Pei Xuan asked, surprised, as Zi Qi usually did not express his anticipation for Sally so directly.
Zi Qi said, “Xiaoba followed her.”
“Isn’t it still in the egg?” Pei Xuan remembered Xiaoba and laughed, “I wonder when it will hatch, whether it will look like Little Shiqi.”
“As long as it doesn’t look like me, anyone from the Rat Clan will do.” Zi Qi also laughed, but his smile carried a hint of unease.
“She will be back tomorrow, and surely with Xiaoba.”
“Mhm.”
“Speaking of which, Lin Yuan has prepared a lot of gifts for the children.”
“It’s all Yanyan’s doing; these little rascals love getting gifts the most,” Zi Qi said with a shake of his head and a smile, “Look at other people’s children, none of them are raised like hers—completely spoiled in a nest of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.”
A Sound Transmission Talisman flew over, and Pei Xuan caught it.
It was from Little Bell—[Dad, I want you to lull me to sleep.]
Pei Xuan put away the Sound Transmission Talisman, “Your Majesty, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first.”
“It’s good to have a daughter with low Talent, go ahead,” Zi Qi said with envy.
“As Your Majesty said, they’re soaking every day in the nest of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Little Bell has also reached the Saint Rank Late Peak, who knows when she will ascend,” Pei Xuan sighed softly, “One by one, they are raised and then they leave.”
“The father wants to raise them, but the daughters are not willing to stay!” Zi Qi said with a bittersweet smile.
“I’ll head off then, Your Majesty, see you tomorrow,” Pei Xuan said, tossing a jar of wine to Zi Qi.
Zi Qi caught it, “Mhm.”
After Pei Xuan left, Zi Qi finished off the jar of wine. Then he returned to the Sleeping Palace to see Little Dot, who was a very well-behaved child and slept soundly, unlike Little Shiqi who kicked a hundred blankets every night and still wasn’t satisfied.
Gently stroking him, Zi Qi’s thoughts drifted to Xiaoba again…
…
The next day, as the morning arrived, the Eastern Immortal Palace buzzed with activity.
Sally returned with the children.
Not only her, but Qing Linghuan and You Hao had also come down, which really surprised Zi Qi.
As the Six Realms gradually stabilized, members of the Divine Clan with Divine Status could no longer come down at will. But for someone with a unique Talent like Little Miqi, even the rules of the Heavenly Dao could do nothing about her.
Aside from Qing Linghuan and You Hao, there was another elder present.
Although Zi Qi did not recognize him, he still respectfully bowed and greeted, “It’s an honor to have such esteemed guests visit the Eastern Immortal Palace. Forgive us for not greeting you from afar!”
Qing Linghuan laughed and said, “No need to call me senior, this is your son’s master. However, you may also address him as Ancestor Heng, as his age exceeds the sum of mine and You Hao’s.”
Zi Qi, with top-notch understanding and reaction skills, instantly realized… his son had found himself a powerful backing!
“Little Shiqi has troubled Ancestor Heng greatly, please take the seat of honor inside the palace,” Qing Linghuan respectfully invited Ancestor Heng.
Stroking his beard and sizing up Zi Qi, Ancestor Heng said, “So it’s you, truly a fateful encounter.”
Zi Qi was momentarily stunned, “I would be grateful for any enlightenment, Ancestor Heng.”
“Hundred Beasts Tower!” Ancestor Heng changed his appearance to another white-haired elderly figure.
Zi Qi suddenly understood and bowed again, “I have seen the senior before, and I have kept that sand painting well preserved.”
“There is a fortune within it, keep it well,” Ancestor Heng changed back and then looked at Sally.
Sally did not expect they were acquainted, “Uh… oh, right!”
She immediately took out Little Ba from the System Space and handed him to Zi Qi, “Your son, it was he who recognized Ancestor Heng.”
Zi Qi looked down at the bundle in his arms, a little one all in gold, excessively beautiful! If not for their blood connection, he would not dare to acknowledge it as his offspring…
“Father Emperor, I am Xiaoba,” said the beautiful little one, with an extremely adorable voice.
Zi Qi’s hands trembled with excitement, “Yanyan, he… he isn’t ugly.”
Sally laughed, “Of course he isn’t ugly, he’s very beautiful, isn’t that right, Xiaoshi?”
If it came to appreciation of beauty, Little Shiwu liked shiny things, but Xiaoshi truly had a passion for beauty.
If it weren’t for Sally putting Xiaoba into the System Space, Xiaoshi would have kept holding onto Xiaoba without letting go.
Xiaoshi, eyes glued to Xiaoba, said, “Uncle Zi, I’ll call you daddy too. Can I hold Xiaoba for a while?”
“Haha~ sure,” Zi Qi handed Xiaoba to Xiaoshi, gaining a daughter in the process.
Xiaoshi, holding Xiaoba, quickly flew away.
Little Miqi and Little Shiwu followed after her.
Xiaoqi, riding on Little Shiqi, clapped her little paws, “Let’s go snatch Xiaoba back!”

Suji Bookstore.
After Little Fengning finished his homework, he neatly packed his textbooks into his school bag. n𝚘vp𝚞𝚋.com
Welly also finished tidying up the bookstore, “Let’s go to the restaurant, join Uncle Zulu and head to the Eastern Immortal Palace. From there, we’ll teleport directly to Golden Phoenix Mountain.”
“Okay.” Little Fengning took out a few Little Storage Bags and handed them to Welly, “Dad, these are treasures I found in the Ancestral Dragon Tomb. They can be used as birthday gifts, or given to our brothers and sisters.”
“No need, keep them for yourself. I still have some savings,” Welly replied.
“Mhm, it’s the thought that counts,” nodded Little Fengning.
Welly patted his head and noticed his hair had grown a bit long, “Let me give you a haircut.”
“Okay.” Little Fengning moved a stool and sat down.
Welly cut his hair into a slightly asymmetrical ear-length fringe, the delicate bangs made his eyes appear stunningly beautiful, exuding an ultimate beauty of purity, blurring gender lines a bit, but for Sally, as long as it looked good, that was all that mattered.
Uncle Zulu arrived with Yona, Shishi, and Frost, and upon entering, he saw Little Fengning.
Impressed, he exclaimed, “What a handsome young man.”
“Thank you, Uncle Zulu. Shall we go to the Eastern Immortal Palace?” asked Little Fengning, standing beside Frost, obviously planning to go together.
Zulu said, “Ming Linyuan sent me a message, asking us to come over directly as they are preparing a meal and such.”
Welly nodded and responded, “All right, then let’s head there directly.”
