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

Chapter 40 Here, keep her ashes safe.

"No wonder you didn't recognize me, you've found someone new!"

"It's my fault, it's my fault. Who told me I couldn't protect you? It's normal for you to choose someone else, but how can you disown me, Tian Tian—"

"Ah, fate!"

With his exaggeratedly long fluorescent green hair, an extremely handsome face, and this incredibly comical expression, he was a perfect match for the other two characters.

Seriously, it's unbearable to look at!
Looking at Bai Xi, I felt a headache coming on. I really wanted to go back to before we first met and slap my nosy self.

“This is my sister, not the Feng Aotian you’re talking about.”

Judging from Long Haochen's expression, he was already enduring it.

"Ah! So you're Feng Aotian's brother, the famous Long Aotian! It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Lin Xin."

As Lin Xin, the green-haired man, got more and more excited, Bai Xi finally couldn't hold back anymore.

She suddenly raised her head and looked at Lin Xin with a deep gaze.

"Would you like to look at my face before telling me who I am?"

When Lin Xin saw Bai Xi's somewhat unfamiliar face, he felt a chill run down his spine.

It’s over!

It's really over!
He's going to die!

"Is it too late for me to admit my mistake now?"

Lin Xin panicked and hurriedly tried to salvage the situation.

"What do you say?"

If looks could kill, Bai Xi would have killed Lin Xin more than ten times by now.

She's been hiding her identity for so long!

It's about to be exposed so quickly!
How did that bastard Lin Xin recognize her? The two faces she disguised were so different.

"Just admit your mistake and apologize. Next time, make sure you look carefully before calling someone, and don't stop people randomly."

Long Haochen spoke, setting Lin Xin's course of action as mistaking someone for someone else.

"Yes, yes, I mistook you for someone else. I'm sorry."

Lin Xin apologized incredibly quickly, sliding to his knees in a flash.

He had to hurry. When Lin Xin saw Bai Xi's unfamiliar face, he knew he had ruined Bai Xi's plans and felt guilty.

"It's alright, it's alright, just be more careful next time."

Bai Xi forced a gentle smile.

Lin Xin felt even colder.

He quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "To express my apologies, I'll pay for your meal today. Please do me the honor."

"Isn't this not good?"

"This is very, very good!"

Unable to refuse Lin Xin's hospitality, Bai Xi had no choice but to agree and led Long Haochen and the others to Lin Xin's private room.

Lin Xin breathed a sigh of relief when Bai Xi nodded.

"Shouldn't this matter just be over?"

But after settling into the private room, Bai Xi said just one sentence, and Lin Xin immediately felt that the matter was not over.

"Lin Xin, who is this Feng Aotian you're talking about? Why did you say you'd recognize her even if she turned to ashes? Are you really that amazing?"

After Bai Xi asked those few questions, Lin Xin felt sweat pouring down his back.

"Well, Feng Aotian is my good friend and my savior."

“Your back view is somewhat similar to hers, so I mistook you for her. That was my mistake.”

No way, it's not just a silhouette.

The medicinal smell on their bodies was exactly the same, but their aura was exceptionally different.

"As for whether I can recognize her after she turns to ashes? Of course I can, I'm not lying."

Lin Xin's honest answer made Bai Xi feel a little better.

Suddenly, she had the idea to tease Lin Xin. She took out a porcelain jar from her storage ring, which looked a bit like an urn, and pretended to squeeze out a few tears.

"Actually, I also know someone named Feng Aotian. She is my best friend."

"It's just a pity... she's already... sob sob sob—"

"What's inside this porcelain jar is her... She told me to give this to a friend named Lin Xin, and I think that's you."

Lin Xin was completely dumbfounded after hearing these words.

And Long Haochen and his two companions actually believed Bai Xi's words in a very naive way.

"Xixi, don't be sad. That Miss Feng wouldn't want to see you so heartbroken."

The easily deceived Long Haochen believed Bai Xi's words and began to comfort her.

Li Xin, taking advantage of being a woman herself, pulled Bai Xi into her arms and comforted her.

Lin Xin, whom Bai Xi truly wanted to tease, was dumbfounded.

However, they did not believe Bai Xi's words, but were amazed by her acting skills.

She's such a good actress; she can cry so easily.

If he hadn't been absolutely certain that Bai Xi and Feng Aotian were the same person, he probably would have been fooled too.

"This... Feng Aotian gave it to me?"

Lin Xin tentatively asked what was in the jar, his curiosity piqued.

"Uh-huh."

Bai Xi nodded with teary eyes.

Although he knew Bai Xi was just playing a prank on him, Lin Xin was still a little nervous because he didn't know what was inside the porcelain jar. He carefully opened the jar.

When Lin Xin saw what was inside, his face immediately lit up with ecstatic joy.

They were so happy they jumped for joy!

"Feng Aotian, you really are my best friend, you're truly loyal!"

He looked at Bai Xi with a face full of joy, he was extremely happy.

Long Haochen peered into the porcelain jar and found it contained some pale green powder, not the ashes they had imagined.

"What's wrong with you? Your best friend went, and you're still so happy?"

Seeing Lin Xin's expression, Li Xin was furious and felt indignant on behalf of Feng Aotian, whom she had never met before.

Bai Xi, sitting next to her: ...There's no need for that.

“My lovely lady, you’ve misunderstood. This porcelain jar contains a gift from my friend. She’s angry with me and just wanted to play a prank on me.”

Lin Xin would explain whenever there was a misunderstanding, and the smile on his face never left his lips.

He put the porcelain jar into his storage ring as if it were a rare treasure.

I'm in an incredibly good mood.

The reason was that the porcelain jar contained powder made from the shell of the Emerald Green Twin Blade Demon that he had longed for for so long, and it had all been carefully processed.

I thought it was human ashes, but it turned out to be the ashes of the Twin-Blade Demon.

It feels really good to be cared for.

"The auction is about to begin. Beautiful young lady, feel free to buy anything you want; I'll pay for it all!"

Overjoyed, Lin Xin, who was so poor that all he had left were money and pills, decided to give away his wealth.

Upon hearing someone mention his younger sister, Long Haochen, the doting brother, immediately went on high alert, looking at Lin Xin warily.

"We've only just met, and we don't even know who we are. Why are you being so generous to us?"

"We didn't know each other before, but now we can. I'm Lin Xin, and what's your name, pretty little sister?"

Just as Long Haochen was about to refuse, Bai Xi began to introduce them.

"I am Bai Xi, this is Long Haochen, and these are Li Xin and Lin Jialu."

And without any hesitation, he agreed to Lin Xin's words, pointing to the auction stage.

"I have what I want right now."
