In the calm forest, spirit qi fluttered as sunlight shone down. The sunlight passed through the gaps between the leaves and shone on the ground, like a scene that had been cut open.
At this moment, a black figure appeared in the distance like a ghost. It was extremely fast and could not be captured with the naked eye.
Swoosh!
Strong winds tore through the air, creating layers of ripples that spread out, forming a visible arc.
“Stop, don’t run.”
Behind the black figure, a girl about a meter tall in a white dress followed closely. Her exquisite little face was filled with seriousness and displeasure.
“Roar!”
Seeing that it was about to be caught, the black figure couldn’t help but shudder. It hurriedly increased his speed, afraid that the girl would catch it.
Seeing this, the girl curled her lips and tapped the ground with the tip of her foot. The entire forest shook as the girl also raised a vast wind and grabbed the black figure.
“Roar, roar!”
The black figure howled crazily, filled with despair.
However, no matter how it struggled, it was unable to escape. The power that was enough to severely injure a Half God Stage expert seemed harmless in the girl’s hand.
It was only at this moment that the black figure’s appearance could be seen. It was actually a big cat.
“Go on, keep running.”
The girl snorted.
The big cat :”…”
Hu!
Another gust of wind blew past, and two panting men suddenly appeared around her. They almost fainted from exhaustion. “Are you alright, miss?”
“It’s alright. You guys are too slow.”
Waving her hand indifferently, the girl said, “We can go back now.”
The two men looked at each other helplessly.
…
The girl’s name was Qin Xiao, and she was eight years old this year. As for her cultivation, she had reached the True God Stage. She believed that no one in her generation would be a match for her.
At this moment, the big black cat lay obediently in the girl’s arms and allowed the girl to “ravage” it. It did not dare to move at all and looked rather comical.
From afar, the girl could already see the mountain peak where she lived.
“You guys can leave. Don’t worry about me.” The girl said politely.
“Uh… yes.”
The two men were stunned for a moment before turning to leave without any hesitation.
The reason was simple. No one could hurt the girl here.
After shaking off the two “bodyguards”, the girl lowered her head and said to the big cat in her arms, “You can’t run around again.”
“Meow.”
The big cat shrank its head, as if responding to the girl.
“I wonder if Mom’s back yet.”
The girl carefully landed on the mountain peak and looked around. After confirming that no one was around, she was about to leave when a voice suddenly sounded from the side. “Ahem, where did you go again?”
The girl froze and slowly turned her head. When she saw the person in front of her clearly, she heaved a sigh of relief.
“Dad, you scared me to death.”
The girl patted her chest in relief.
“What? Am I that terrifying?”
The young man held a wine pot in his hand, looking like an immortal that had descended to the mortal world. He was slightly displeased.
“No, no, no. Dad is the most handsome!”
The girl shook her head repeatedly.
“Hmph, don’t even think about it. You still haven’t answered my question.”
The young man took a sip of spirit wine and frowned.
“The big cat ran out. I went to get it.” The girl answered.
“Oh? Really?”
The young man said meaningfully, “Are you sure it didn’t run out because you bullied the big cat?”
The big cat was the young man’s new pet last month. It would definitely not run out for no reason.
“I…”
The girl was speechless.
“Put the big cat down.”
“Oh.”
Helpless, the girl could only put the big cat down.
“Meow.”
The big cat immediately escaped behind the young man.
“I’ll let you play with it when you stop bullying the big cat.”
“Oh…”
The girl looked disappointed. Then she looked up and said weakly, “Dad, can you not tell Mom about this?”
“Sure.”
After pondering for a moment, the young man nodded.
“Yeah, I knew Dad was the best!”
The girl hugged the young man happily. No matter what, as long as her mother didn’t find out, it was fine.
“…”
Others all had strict dads and lenient moms, but her parents seemed to have swapped places.
“Hai, I really don’t know what to do with you.”
Rubbing the girl’s head, the young man changed the topic. “Have you finished your homework today?”
“Yes.”
“Then accompany Daddy to rest.”
“Huh?”
“You’re unwilling? Then I’ll tell your mother what happened just now.”
“I’m willing, I’m willing.”
The girl looked miserable.
The reason why she hesitated just now was because her father was a lazy alcoholic. He never cultivated or exercised. Apart from being handsome, he was almost useless.
In comparison, his mother was very powerful.
Qin Xiao remembered that the last time Uncle Zhang was injured by a bad person, it was her mother who came forward to resolve it. Those fiendish fellows did not even manage to withstand a single move from her before they cried bitterly and knelt to beg for mercy.
Moreover, ever since Uncle Bai retired and went on a trip with Aunt Mu, her mother had been in charge of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect. It was said that the Xuanyi Mountain Sect was the most powerful faction in this world. Even Uncle Heavenly Emperor’s Heavenly Palace was far inferior to it.
In short, her mother was a super expert!
On the other hand, not only did his father not have any cultivation, but he was also an out-and-out alcoholic. The difference between the two was like the difference between heaven and earth.

Therefore, Qin Xiao was very curious sometimes. Why would such a beautiful and powerful mother fancy her father?
Qin Xiao had asked her mother this question before. The answer was that her father sang very well.
It was true that the girl’s father sang really well.
But… was it really just because she sang well?
Not long after, the two of them arrived by the blue stone not far away. The young man put away the empty wine pot in his hand and then took out another pot.
Gulp! Gulp!
After taking two large gulps, the young man revealed a satisfied expression.
“You were asleep with your fists clenched and shallow dimples on your cheeks.”
“I’ll look at you at this moment.”
“There’s so much I want to tell you…”
“…”
Qin Xiao, who was originally somewhat conflicted, quickly calmed down after hearing the singing and fell into an intoxicated state.
No wonder Mommy liked Daddy. It was so nice!
Thinking like this, Qin Xiao closed her eyes and lazily lay on the young man’s legs. Unknowingly, she fell asleep.
The setting sun was like fire. It shone on the two of them and was exceptionally warm.
“If you grow up a lot tomorrow, will I feel at a loss?”
“You won’t let me hold your hand anymore. You can only hope to break free from my grasp every day.”
“You will also love someone and give up a lot…”
“…”
“…”
The singing gradually became lighter. Qin Jue put down the wine pot and slowly fell asleep.
Night quickly fell. Su Yan, who had been busy for half a day, finally returned from the main hall of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect.
Half a year ago, Bai Ye suddenly announced his retirement to travel with Mu Ziqi. Helpless, he could only temporarily choose another sect master to take over the Xuanyi Mountain Sect. Qin Jue had never been interested in such things, so in the end, it fell to Su Yan, the current strongest person in the sect besides Qin Jue.
“Where did Little Xiao go again?”
Seeing that there was no one in the room, Su Yan frowned slightly and walked out. She was slightly stunned when she saw the young man and the girl by the blue stone and smiled sweetly.
A moment later, Su Yan leaned on Qin Jue’s shoulder and also entered her dream.
