Divine Seal: I am the Demon God Emperor's beloved granddaughter

Chapter 17 almost wore him out before he finally spoke.
Long Xingyu was speechless, but he could only painstakingly maintain his position so as not to hurt himself or Bai Xi, and take Bai Xi's angry sword strike.

It's shameful to hurt yourself.

If you hurt Bai Xi, you'll lose your wife.

He had finally found a wife, and he couldn't just lose her like that.

At this moment, Long Xingyu was only thinking about not losing face or his wife.

It was only after a long, long time that I felt relieved that I hadn't lost my son and daughter that day.

If Bai Xi is truly hurt, not only will his wife hate him, but his two precious children will also hate him to death.

"You are strong, but I will become stronger too."

After failing to harm Long Xingyu, Bai Xi realized the insurmountable gap between them and said coldly.

After using the Spirit Furnace to unleash the Wrathful Sword, Bai Xi had reached her limit.

She already knew that Long Xingyu had no intention of harming them; otherwise, with Long Xingyu's strength, they would have been dead long ago.

But the way Long Xingyu looked at her really made her uncomfortable.

Moreover, her anger was rising and her fighting spirit had not diminished in the slightest.

Add to that Bai Yue, who was glaring angrily at Long Xingyu with tears in her eyes, and Long Haochen, who collapsed behind her, exhausted.

Bai Xi simply couldn't let go.

Furthermore, she is like a taut string now; if it were to suddenly loosen, she would hurt herself.

We have no choice but to take a gamble.

Bai Xi's eyes turned cold as she made up her mind and slashed her wrist with her sword.

She would have to rely on the spirit furnace to fight to the death.

"Xixi!"

Long Haochen shouted. Even though he didn't have the strength to speak, he was so excited to see Bai Xi hurting herself that he actually had the strength to rush up and try to stop her.

Then, not to mention Long Haochen, even Long Xingyu was stunned by Bai Xi's move.

"Bai Xi!"

He was about to stop Bai Xi and heal her wounds, but an unexpected turn of events occurred.

Bai Xi's blood dripped onto the spirit furnace, and a crimson light burst forth, instantly reflecting the power belonging to Long Xingyu back.

"How could this be? What kind of spirit furnace is this? It actually has such powerful energy."

Long Xingyu murmured in shock, unable to believe that he couldn't even get close!

who is he!
He is the man who stands at the pinnacle of this continent!

The crimson light repelled everything that approached, but it was much more aggressive when facing Long Xingyu, while it was gentle and affectionate towards Long Haochen.

When the red light enveloped Long Haochen, he felt his stamina, which had been depleted in the fierce battle, instantly return to full strength, and he even had the courage to fight again.

However, Bai Xi did not let him make a move. Bai Xi used the same method to tie up Long Haochen, and the method was very similar to how Long Xingyu tied up Bai Yue.

"He's very powerful; you'll only be cannon fodder if you go up against him."

When Bai Xi spoke, her tone had completely changed.

The previously soft and lovely voice had turned cold and devoid of any emotion, as if she were a completely different person.

"Although I can't beat him, I'll give it a try."

As Bai Xi spoke, she wiped the still-damp blood from her hand onto the light sword, making the clear white blade appear even redder.

Long Xingyu, who had driven Bai Xi to the point of self-harm, was frowning so deeply that he could practically crush a fly.

“She really doesn’t seem like my child. My child could never be this strong.”

"But she can't die by my hand, Yue will hate me." "For Yue's sake, I think I can try to learn what it means to love someone so much that you love everything about them."

Long Xingyu thought to himself, gently met Bai Xi's sharp sword, and spoke to comfort her.

"Bai Xi, calm down. I didn't mean to hurt you. I just wanted to take this opportunity to test your achievements over the past year. I didn't intend to hurt you. You don't need to work so hard."

He explained it well, but Bai Xi already knew all of this.

Bai Xi's stubbornness until now was entirely due to the disgust in Long Xingyu's eyes that he inadvertently revealed.

Long Xingyu simply didn't intend to kill her with his own hands; it certainly wasn't that he didn't intend to harm her.

Of course, Bai Yue's tearful and angry glare at Long Xingyu could easily lead Bai Xi to misunderstand.

"We've been fighting for so long, and now you're saying you didn't intend to hurt us? Who would believe that?"

Anyway, neither Bai Xi nor Zhu Que, who lent her power, nor Long Haochen, who couldn't speak, believed it.

They've already pushed Bai Xi to this point, and now they're saying they meant no harm? Where were they before?

Even if Long Xingyu truly meant no harm and was merely testing the waters, his probing went too far. After all, he was the one in control; he could have stopped long ago, and he had the means to do so, but he simply didn't.

Bai Xi still didn't hold much weight in his heart.

He could accept Bai Yue, and even Long Haochen, but the moment he saw Bai Xi's face, he would think of that man and simply couldn't accept it.

"If I wanted to hurt you, you wouldn't even be able to withstand one of my attacks. Believe it or not, that's the truth."

Long Xingyu kept explaining, but he automatically avoided the two best methods.

First, lift Bai Yue's silencing and let her explain how she tried to stop it.

Second, reveal the true nature of your relationship with Bai Yue.

But he didn't choose any of them. In Bai Xi's eyes, who didn't have God's perspective, wasn't that a guilty conscience?

"Who knows what you powerful people are thinking? Judging from the attitude of Lord Nalan and your current composed demeanor, you must be at least an eighth-level knight."

"For someone to come to a small place like ours to teach a mere squire knight, who would believe there's nothing wrong with that?"

"But no matter what your intentions are, I will absolutely not allow you to hurt my family or destroy my home."

The earth-shattering sword strike, a fusion of three forces, has been fully charged.

"The phoenix cries blood."

The phoenix only cries blood and launches its strongest attack when it is about to die.

This move was nothing earth-shattering; what appeared with Bai Xi's sword was merely a drop of blood.

But that drop of blood contained astonishing power.

In Long Xingyu's view, this seemingly insignificant drop of blood could even kill a fifth-tier professional.

The one who used this move was a ten-year-old child.

It wasn't that Long Xingyu was being self-deprecating; he genuinely didn't believe he could have given birth to such a talented child. This child definitely wasn't his; Bai Yue was just lying to him by saying the child was his.

But he truly couldn't let go of Bai Yue, and with proper nurturing, both children could become elites in the alliance. For the greater good, it seemed he had no choice but to accept the children's fate and bear the cuckold's horns.

Thinking this through, Long Xingyu finally understood and immediately revealed his identity when he accepted the Phoenix's Cry of Blood.

"That's enough. I'm your father. We're family, not enemies."

"Yue is my rightful wife. My surname is Long, and Long Haochen takes my surname. You are my children."

"You said it yourself, I am at least an eighth-level professional. If you weren't my children, how could I tolerate your provocations?"

Just as Long Xingyu was about to wear Bai Xi down, he finally spoke up and admitted his identity.
