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

Chapter 43: Unable to speak or see, could it be the same person?

Bai Xi has a lot of confidence in Li Xin.

Compared to those unparalleled geniuses, Li Xin's talent is probably just average.

But she works extremely hard, surpassing many people, and has a good character, which will surely bring her rewards.

"Okay, I believe you."

Bai Xi's eyes seemed to possess some kind of strange power. When Li Xin met her eyes, she inexplicably believed that she could really enter the finals and successfully form a group.

"Actually, the competition isn't that cruel for you. Because participants like Xixi who have reached the fifth level will get a bye in the first two rounds."

"Chenchen, you don't need to worry about meeting Xixi too early. Actually, there aren't that many fifth-tier participants, and you fifth-tier participants will only meet each other during the competition for the top ten."

Long Xingyu patiently explained to them that he firmly believed his two children could achieve good results.

"That's about all I have to say. You should all go and get some rest, especially you."

The person following Long Xingyu is Li Xin, because she didn't get a bye and will be participating in the competition soon.

In fact, this is a mild way of asking them to leave.

He had some private things to say to his two children.

Li Xin naturally left, leaving the family of three alone.

"Xixi, I need to apologize to you first. It was my mistake not to remind you beforehand. Next time you go to the Demon Realm, you'd better cover your face."

"Your maternal grandfather also had some enemies in the demon realm."

"Your face easily reminds people of him."

Long Xingyu took out a portrait and handed it to Bai Xi. The portrait depicted Bai Xi in the outfit she wore when she went to the Demon Realm for the Demon Hunter Team selection competition some time ago.

"I obtained this portrait in the territory of the demons, and I don't know how many of these portraits there are."

"I just hope this portrait won't bring you any danger."

"otherwise--"

Thinking of this, Long Xingyu's killing intent was slightly revealed, and he was already quite imposing.

If Bai Xi gets into danger because of her resemblance to Feng Xiu, don't blame him for not giving his father-in-law face. He wouldn't dare to challenge even his father-in-law.

"I'm lucky, I won't be that unlucky."

Bai Xi quickly comforted Long Xingyu, and even pointed to the portrait and joked.

"I have to say, this person's drawing skills are quite good; they drew me so realistically. How come I never realized before that I'm actually so beautiful?"

Bai Xi's feigned narcissism did indeed put Long Xingyu and Long Haochen at ease for a second.

In a second, because the next moment Long Xingyu began to instruct Long Haochen.

"Chenchen, Xixi is your sister. You must protect her no matter what."

Thinking of the Sacred Guiding Furnace he had passed on to Long Haochen, Long Xingyu had no doubt that Long Haochen could protect Bai Xi.

If even a Holy Guiding Furnace can't protect his younger sister, then this older brother is probably useless.

Long Haochen also realized this, and covered the direction of the Holy Guiding Spirit Furnace on his chest, solemnly promising:
"I will definitely protect my sister."

"Are you kidding me? I'm better than Chenchen. Shouldn't I be the one protecting him?"

Bai Xi protested, stating that she did not need to be protected.

Long Xingyu and Long Haochen ignored her protests.

Soon, the day arrived for the Demon Hunter Selection Tournament.

Although Bai Xi and Long Haochen had a bye in the first two rounds, they still had to attend the opening ceremony.

After attending the opening ceremony, they returned to the hotel. This was as Long Xingyu had instructed them: not to linger too long at the trial grounds, because there were too many people there who would notice them.

They shouldn't be under too much scrutiny right now.

"Xixi, do you think there won't be any problems with Sister Li's match? She's a Grand Knight and has the Rose Unicorn, she should win, right?"

On the way back, Long Haochen was a little worried about Li Xin's match and brought it up with Bai Xi.

"There's definitely no problem. She won the previous rounds without a doubt. I've always had a good eye for talent. If Sister Li gives it her all, she can definitely make it into the top ten."

But Bai Xi had a lot of confidence in Li Xin.

With her talent and hard work, Li Xin should have no problem becoming a top performer.

"As long as we can get into the top ten, that's fine."

Long Haochen was still a little nervous. Just as he was about to say something more, Bai Xi grabbed his hand.

Long Haochen, who understood immediately, stopped and immediately heard a clear sound approaching from afar.

"Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump..."

It was the sound of something gently tapping the ground. Instinctively turning to look, the brother and sister saw a blind girl.

The girl had long purple hair, simply tied back, and a black cloth covered her face, obscuring her features. Her eyes were visible, but they were grayish-white and devoid of any light.

The tapping sound was from her repeatedly tapping the ground with a green bamboo staff.

Upon seeing the girl, Bai Xi's eyes revealed a thoughtful expression.

She felt that the girl looked familiar, as if she had seen her somewhere before. While she was thinking about where she had seen her before, Long Haochen, who had a kind heart, had already walked towards the girl.

"Little sister, where are you going? Let me help you."

Looking at the girl, Long Haochen found it hard not to feel pity.

Moreover, he also has a younger sister, and if his sister encounters difficulties, he hopes that someone can lend her a hand.

"Need not."

The girl rejected Long Haochen, her voice cold.

It was a chilling stillness, almost deathly cold, as if the person had lost all vitality.

After being rejected, Long Haochen didn't press the matter. He noticed that Bai Xi was still standing there and looked over at her, meeting her thoughtful expression.

"Xixi, what's wrong with you?"

"Have we met somewhere before?"

Bai Xi also spoke at the same time, asking the blind girl a question.

At this moment, she had already matched the girl in front of her with the girl from five years ago. She still had doubts because the girl from five years ago was mute. The girl now could speak, but was indeed blind.

The moment their voices rang out, the blind girl's emotions wavered for a fleeting instant. The change was subtle, yet it did not escape Bai Xi's notice.

Bai Xi was naturally good at observing these micro-expressions, not to mention that he had been staring at the blind girl the whole time.

"We've met before, haven't we?"

After saying it with almost certainty, Bai Xi walked towards the girl.

“You look very much like a girl I met five years ago, but back then she couldn’t speak, and now you can’t see.”

As Bai Xi approached step by step.

The blind girl gripped the green bamboo cane tightly in her hand.

At this moment, she wanted to leave, yet she didn't want to leave.
