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

Chapter 230 The Shrinking Sister, the Grandfather Who Wanted to Kill Him, and the Confused Little Dragon
"Stay a few more years? Is that what you want?"

Bai Xi already had a guess in her mind, but she wasn't sure.

"I want to see Cai'er..."

Long Haochen finally revealed his true thoughts: he wanted to see Sheng Cai'er before going back.

"But you can't see Cai'er..."

Long Haochen and Bai Xi already exist in this world, so the people who belong to this world cannot see them.

"It's okay if I can't see her, just spend some time with her."

"However, I don't want to go now."

Nonsense, they've all just been born, and Saint Cher hasn't even been born yet!
"I'll stay with Mom for a few more years, then I'll go find Cai'er, and after I've spent a few more years with Cai'er, we can go back, okay?"

Perhaps Bai Xi was too rational; she didn't understand why Long Haochen wanted to stay here, but she respected his decision and stayed with him.

I watched again how I grew up as a child, and I also watched again how Bai Yue gradually weakened by self-torture and self-abuse.

As bystanders, they can't do anything.

That's why Bai Xi didn't want to watch.

This feeling of helplessness was really unpleasant, so after staying by Bai Yue's side for three years, Bai Xi took the initiative to go see Sheng Cai'er.

"Let's go to Exorcism Pass to see Cai'er."

Although nothing could be done during the visit to Sheng Cai'er, Long Haochen's wish was fulfilled, and he could leave this place.

The situation was even worse for Sheng Cai'er. She was almost three years old, and Bai Xi and Long Haochen could only watch helplessly as she began the cruel and painful cycle of reincarnation trials.

But they were powerless to change anything, nor could they change anything.

All they could do was offer Saint Cher, who was shrouded in darkness, untouchable support.

However, young Saint Cher, who shouldn't have been aware of their presence, vaguely sensed that someone was always with her.

A heart that gradually grew cold left behind a warm seed.

"So, Cai'er has gone through so much suffering... Is there really no way to change anything?"

Long Haochen was somewhat unwilling. He only realized how cruel those past events were to Sheng Cai'er after witnessing them with his own eyes.

"No, because the timeline where Cai'er is located already exists. If we really want to change it, we can only change the spatial branch, but that would mean creating a new parallel universe, which still wouldn't solve anything."

"Let's go pick up Grandpa and then we'll leave. Otherwise, who knows how many more people will ignore our warnings and barge in."

“You are outsiders, and staying in the river of time for too long will damage your spirit.”

Because they haven't returned to their original world yet, Bai Xi can't shut down the time-space river of their original world; otherwise, finding the right location to return to their original world would be another difficult problem.

But it is precisely because of this that Feng Xiu disregarded the warnings and ventured into the river of time.

"Grandpa came in too, where is he?"

"The location he entered was another spatial tributary, which should be a parallel space. We'll only know for sure after the timeline has passed."

As she spoke, Bai Xi pulled Long Haochen into the spatial tributary she had temporarily frozen, and they entered a parallel space.

The moment she entered, Bai Xi knew that something very serious had happened.

"Xixi... why have you shrunk..."

Long Haochen was stunned when he saw Bai Xi, who was not even as tall as his thigh.

"Hmph!"

Bai Xi, who had suddenly shrunk to the size of a three-and-a-half-year-old, was full of resentment. She was already short, and now she was even shorter! How annoying!

"This is a side effect of traversing the route multiple times. If you come a few more times, you'll only be worse off than me."

"Huh? Aftereffects? Are you still feeling unwell anywhere? How can these aftereffects be cured? Should we go back first?" He had initially thought it was Bai Xi's prank, but upon hearing it was an aftereffect, Long Haochen immediately became anxious.

"Aside from my age, my strength, and my height all shrinking to three and a half years, I don't feel uncomfortable at all."

"As for healing, time will heal everything."

"Long Haochen, you must protect me until I fully recover!"

"Don't worry, I will definitely protect you."

After bending down to pick up three-and-a-half-year-old Bai Xi, Long Haochen solemnly made a promise.

"The people here can see us, so we don't exist in this timeline? I don't know when or where to find him..."

"This is where I'll have to go. First, head south for two hundred miles..."

Bai Xi directed her vehicle, Long Haochen, to head south.

Their goal was to find Fengxiu and then return home, but neither of them expected that they would see two Fengxiu.

"Xixi, I see Grandpa!"

Long Haochen said with delight, and ran towards the tall figure in the distance with Bai Xi in his arms.

"and many more!"

Bai Xi noticed something was wrong and quickly stopped Long Haochen. Long Haochen obediently stopped what he was doing, but it was too late.

The man under the tree in the distance had already spotted them and launched a murderous attack towards them.

Fortunately, Long Haochen hadn't diminished his strength; he still possessed the power of an eighth-tier adamantite knight, and thus easily dodged the attack.

Looking at the large number of fallen trees behind him, Long Haochen fell into deep thought.

"Xixi, has Grandpa gone mad?"

If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been seriously injured by that attack, and he didn't even want to think about what would have happened to Bai Xi, who was in his arms and had no offensive capabilities due to the aftereffects.

"Idiot! He's not our grandfather!"

Bai Xi watched the familiar figure approaching them, clearly distinguishing the person in front of her from her maternal grandfather, Feng Xiu.

"When did the human race ever have a mithril knight like you?"

The man who looked exactly like Feng Xiu looked at Long Haochen and questioned him in a deep voice.

"Besides, why do you call me grandpa? I don't remember ever getting married and having children."

Although they were some distance apart, Fengxiu's mental strength allowed her to hear their conversation and question them.

"If I told you that you look a lot like our maternal grandfather, would you believe me?"

Long Haochen had already realized the difference between the person in front of him and their maternal grandfather. As he spoke, he cautiously took two steps back while holding Bai Xi.

"Do you think I will believe it?"

Feng Xiu spoke coldly, her voice filled with murderous intent.

His appearance is unparalleled in the world; how could anyone possibly look like him?

“It’s true. Look, my face is inherited from my maternal grandfather.”

Bai Xi, who was in Long Haochen's arms, raised her tender face and looked at Feng Xiu.

Upon seeing Bai Xi's blue eyes, Feng Xiu immediately fell silent, wanting to retract his earlier thought.

How strange! There really is someone in this world who looks like him, and she's just a five or six-year-old girl.
