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

Chapter 2: The first seal is broken; the classic overpowered female protagonist halo appears.
"No, we must repay them."

The man in white continued translating, and then came up with a way to repay the debt.

"I will clear the impurities in your twelve meridians as a way of repaying you."

"Just clear the blockage for him, I don't need to."

Bai Xi gripped the sword in her hand, suppressing the surging power within her, not wanting anyone to notice her abnormality.

Seeing that the man in white was about to speak again, Bai Xi quickly spoke up:
"If you really feel bad about it, you can give me some money so I can improve my home's conditions."

Since she had already said that, the man in white had no choice but to take out a storage ring containing a lot of valuables and give it to Bai Xi.

She then helped Long Haochen tidy up his twelve essentials, and then prepared to leave with the purple-haired little girl.

Before leaving, the little girl came up again and slipped a ring to Bai Xi. Her big eyes blinked, and she was very cute.

As soon as the two left, Bai Xi clutched her chest and collapsed to the ground, her body flashing with bursts of fiery red light, and she felt incredibly hot.

"Zhuque, what's going on? Why is your power overflowing?"

Bai Xi clutched her chest and struggled to think to herself.

"Master, it's not that Vermilion Bird's power is overflowing; it's that your first seal is about to break, and my power is also being released in considerable quantities. Master, you must quickly use this power to break through your first power seal!"

A girl's voice appeared in Bai Xi's mind, very delicate.

"Is the first seal finally about to be broken?"

This is far too difficult, Bai Xi thought to herself, and then quickly circulated her power to break through the seal.

Bai Xi discovered that a soul named Vermilion Bird had appeared in her brain not long after she was born, but it was mostly asleep recovering its power.

It was Suzaku who told her that she did not belong to this world, and that there were nine powerful seals in her soul, each of which sealed away a great deal of power.

It was also Zhuque who told her that she had something called the "old-fashioned overpowered female protagonist halo".

But for so many years, she had been working hard to break the first seal, and it wasn't until she was nine years old that she managed to break the weakest first seal.

Bai Xi doubted whether she could break all nine seals in her lifetime.

After a while, Long Haochen was about to wake up, but Bai Xi was still not done.

Then a wisp of red light emerged from between Bai Xi's eyebrows, and Long Haochen fainted again.

"Sorry, although you are the master's older brother in this life, it's hard to explain. I can only let you sleep a little longer~"

Just as Long Haochen was about to wake up again, Bai Xi opened her eyes, having completed the breaking of the first layer of the seal. As the power within her body circulated, she finally understood what the "old-fashioned overpowered female protagonist halo" meant.

"Xixi, how are you?"

As soon as he woke up, Long Haochen looked anxiously at Bai Xi. Even though Bai Xi looked very healthy, he did not relax.

Long Haochen only breathed a sigh of relief after Bai Xi said she was alright.

Then he looked around again, clearly searching for the little girl.

"This ring was given to you by the little girl just now; it should also be a storage ring."

Bai Xi put the blue-gold ring on Long Haochen's finger, then shook her own plain white storage ring containing valuables.

"This white color is my favorite, so I'll take it."

"Both are fine with you. It's getting late, we need to hurry home, otherwise Mom will worry."

Long Haochen naturally had no objections. He looked at the sky, pulled Bai Xi up with one hand, and picked up the wooden sword with the other, and was surprised to find that his strength had increased considerably.

"What is this...?" "They also helped you sort out the twelve meridians, your spiritual power should have doubled, right?"

Bai Xi explained and then started calculating for Long Haochen again.

"When you came back today, you told me your spiritual power was sixteen, so it should be around thirty now. You can test it again tomorrow, but be careful not to let anyone else find out, it's a bit complicated to explain..."

Bai Xi is the younger sister, but because she has more memories, she is much more mature than Long Haochen, who is actually nine years old. Sometimes she worries like an older sister.

"And what about you? Did he help you understand the twelve primary meridians?"

But Long Haochen didn't listen to Bai Xi's words at all; his mind was preoccupied with something else.

His younger sister, Bai Xi, was frail from childhood, making cultivation difficult, and Odin Town was mostly inhabited by knights.

The knights are discriminatory; they discriminate against women and almost never recruit female trainees, not even giving them a chance to be assessed.

As a result, Bai Xi, who is also nine years old, has never cultivated.

Long Haochen wondered if the effect of sorting out the twelve meridians was so good, and if Bai Xi also sorted out her meridians, would she have the talent to cultivate, be able to find a teacher, and join the Holy Temple Alliance?

“I didn’t give it to them; I asked for some money.”

Bai Xi shook her head and shook her ring. "With these, we won't have to work so hard."

"Don't look so sad. Even if I don't join the Temple Alliance and can't find a famous master, I still have ways to cultivate."

"Or do you think you can beat me right now?"

Upon hearing this, Long Haochen's expression immediately returned to normal; he had no intention of fighting.

He just couldn't understand why the profession of knight didn't welcome girls.

“Xixi, you always say that I will become a Divine Knight in the future. If I become a Divine Knight, I will definitely change the rule that knights exclude women.”

Long Haochen thought to himself, two small, similar figures walking together toward home in the afterglow of the sun.

*

Since passing the squire knight exam, Long Haochen has gone to study under a master, and his daily return home has become weekly.

Bai Xi didn't know which teacher he had taken as his disciple, but she always felt that ever since he became his disciple, there had been a pair of eyes watching her in secret, making her afraid to cultivate anymore.

The gaze was especially strong at night, keeping her awake all night, constantly worried that something bad would happen.

That day, Bai Yue went out to deliver the finished clothes, leaving only a listless Bai Xi to look after the house.

"Why are you home alone? Where is your mother?"

As Bai Xi sat at the door in a daze, a cold voice suddenly rang out, and a tall figure blocked Bai Xi's way, casting a large shadow and bringing a chill.

"This person is very strong, much stronger than the man in white from a few days ago."

Bai Xi had this feeling even before she looked up.

When she heard that sound, the hairs on her body stood on end; she was instinctively afraid.

"My mom's home, you'd better leave now, or I'll call for help!"

Bai Xiru, like an extremely timid little girl, ran back into the house as fast as she could, and only after closing the door did she shout fiercely.

This reaction was something Long Xingyu hadn't expected.

Is this... mistaking him for a human trafficker?
