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

Chapter 19 Then let's not acknowledge him anymore!
Bai Xi felt quite uncomfortable hearing this, so she chose to sulk and ignore him.

Anyway, she's just a ten-year-old kid, and a poor little thing who almost got beaten to death by her scumbag dad, so she can still be a little willful.

Long Xingyu was ignored, but he couldn't get angry, so he could only look to Bai Yue for help.

"Xixi, Dad is also worried about you, afraid that something might go wrong when you awaken. Mom and your brother are also very worried about you, and hope that everything will be alright for you."

Upon receiving the pleading look, Bai Yue immediately began to soothe the person in a gentle voice.

"No one awakened me. After I fell into a lake, I went to a strange place and obtained that spirit furnace and that sword called Chengying."

"If he hadn't told me that I had awakened my inner spiritual power, I wouldn't have known that I had."

Bai Xi spoke somewhat reluctantly, concealing the fact that she was lying.

She was aware of the awakening of her inner spiritual power; it had fully awakened when the second seal was broken.

That's how she was able to successfully obtain the Spirit Furnace and the Cheng Ying Sword after clearing the level.

"How could this be?"

Long Xingyu exclaimed in surprise, never expecting such a thing to happen.

"Could you take the spirit furnace out again so I can take a look?"

This time, Long Xingyu's tone was much gentler, but Bai Xi was still somewhat unwilling. Bai Yue then put her arm around her and patted her, offering silent reassurance, which eventually made Bai Xi take out the spirit furnace.

"Here, take a look."

When Bai Xi's spirit furnace first appeared and was not activated, it was pure and colorless, and its shape was also quite ordinary.

Long Xingyu examined the spirit furnace carefully and found that he did not recognize it at all; it was not any of the known spirit furnaces in existence.

However, he could sense the pure power of light emanating from this spirit furnace.

"What's the name of your spirit furnace?"

Long Xingyu asked again, which made the man impatient.

"do not know."

"I need to rest, my whole body aches."

Bai Xi said, pulling the blanket over her head and lying down.

She wasn't lying; she really was feeling unwell all over, with pain everywhere, as if she had countless invisible tiny wounds.

This is the consequence of breaking the third seal too quickly.

The fierce battle with Long Xingyu allowed Bai Xi to break the third seal ahead of schedule. With the two seals broken on the same day, a large amount of power surged into her body.
This caused her body to be unable to keep up, and she was in pain from being stretched.

"Alright, alright, don't ask anymore, you'll find out later. Let Xixi rest now, she was just injured."

Long Xingyu was about to ask more questions, but Bai Yue stopped him, her tone reproachful, so he had no choice but to give up.

Just as the three of them were about to leave, Bai Xi turned around and glanced at Long Haochen.

That evening, while resting, Long Haochen quietly went to Bai Xi's room.

"Xixi, is there something you want to say to me alone?"

This is the tacit understanding between twins who grew up together. Bai Xi only needed to give Long Haochen a look, and he knew what she wanted to say without having to ask any more questions.

"Chenchen, did he ask you to change how you address him?"

Long Haochen nodded and added, "But when I said I couldn't bring myself to say it, he didn't force me."

“Xixi, why are you suddenly asking this? Do you doubt that he is our father? But Mommy wouldn’t lie to us, he should be our father.”

"Although we can't accept it right now, that's the truth."

Bai Xi shook her head. "I believe what Mom says. She wouldn't lie to us. What she said is true."

“But I feel like he doesn’t really want to be our father, especially not my father.” As she spoke, Bai Xi cupped her face in her hands.

"A large part of the reason must be my face. We are fraternal twins, and my face, which is similar to yours yet different, must look exactly like one of his enemies."

If Bai Yue heard Bai Xi's question, she might mentally reply to Bai Xi who she looked like.

"Your still-young face not only resembles my birth mother, whose true face I've never seen but whose portrait I only know, but also my birth father, whom I've only met once but who refuses to acknowledge. Yet it doesn't resemble me or Xingyu at all. Is this some kind of generational inheritance?"

At this moment, Long Haochen was already shocked by Bai Xi's words.

"He can't be that outrageous, can he? Just because of your appearance, he hates you and won't recognize you?"

"You are his daughter!"

"If he doesn't acknowledge you as his daughter, then we won't acknowledge him either! Anyway, we've lived just fine without him for the past ten years, we don't need him anymore!"

Long Haochen, the doting brother, immediately retorted in a huff.

He didn't want his sister to suffer even the slightest grievance, and no one could allow her to suffer any injustice, not even the person who was his long-awaited biological father.

"Yes, the three of us can be very happy, we don't need him anymore!"

Bai Xi picked up where Long Haochen left off, proudly raising her head.

However, she sounded somewhat unsure of herself. She had previously thought that Bai Yue's improved mood over the past year was due to her and her brother. But now it seemed that a large part of the reason was Long Xingyu.

They may not need Long Xingyu as a father, but Bai Yue needs Long Xingyu as a husband.

"Chenchen, I want to leave here for a while, maybe three to five years, or maybe one or two years."

After the jokes, Bai Xi got down to business.

This sentence immediately stunned Long Haochen.

It took him a while to come to his senses, and he still said in disbelief:

"You're leaving home?"

"And for such a long time?"

Where are you going? I'll go with you!

Long Haochen was shocked by Bai Xi's departure from home and tried to stop her, but as a doting brother, he couldn't bring himself to say anything to stop her, so he decided to go with Bai Xi.

"No matter where you go, I will go with you. We can't be apart."

"No, Chenchen, the place I'm going to isn't suitable for you. And if I leave and you leave too, what will happen to Mommy? She'll be very sad."

When Bai Xi said those words to stop Long Haochen, she couldn't help but feel a sense of guilt.

She is morally blackmailing Long Haochen.

Taking advantage of Long Haochen's soft heart and his high regard for her and Bai Yue, she openly and blatantly used moral blackmail against him.

The mere thought that his mother would be sad made Long Haochen hesitate.

Her blue eyes were filled with sorrow as she stared straight at Bai Xi, which was very heart-wrenching.

"But I'll be sad if we're apart."

One sentence almost made Bai Xi cry.

"But I have a reason to leave. I'm sorry, Chenchen."

Long Haochen only wanted to be a knight, and Long Xingyu was already more than enough to teach him.

But Bai Xi didn't just want to be a knight; she wanted to forge her own path. What Long Xingyu could teach her was truly very limited.

Only by temporarily separating and going their separate ways to find their own paths can she grow stronger as quickly as possible.
