Do you think this world is serious?

"I've come here to save you, so—would you like to come with me?"

"Of course, Xilin wants to go with her big brother, but..."

Xilin looked sad, like a child who had done something wrong. "Xilin is a bad child. Many people hate her. She will cause trouble for her older brother."

"No, no. Sirin is a kind and good girl, how could anyone dislike her?"

Chen Xiuming squatted down next to Xilin and gently picked her up in a princess carry. "Those who hate Xilin are the bad guys. If they dare to show up in front of Xilin in the future, I will help Xilin drive them away."

Perhaps because she had been lying in the snow for a long time, Xilin's body temperature was a little cold.

Xilin stared wide-eyed at Chen Xiuming, her hands clasped in her arms, suddenly becoming somewhat nervous.

"Didn't big brother lie to Sirin?"

"How could I possibly lie to the cute and kind Sirin? Big brother here is actually quite strong."

Chen Xiuming spoke with confidence as he carried Xilin toward the edge of the pit.

With Kiana, the "Emperor of the End," as his backer, he naturally possesses the confidence to back up his words.

Xilin stared at Chen Xiuming for a few seconds, then revealed an innocent smile.

"Yes! Sirin wants to go with big brother—she really, really wants to go with big brother!"

As they spoke, Xilin reached out and pinched Chen Xiuming's clothes, asking curiously, "Big brother, Xilin doesn't know your name yet."

"My name is Chen Xiuming."

Chen Xiuming responded while standing at the edge of the deep pit.

Before taking Sirin away from the World Bubble, there are a few things that need to be taken care of first, such as warming Sirin's cold body and treating her injuries.

The edge of the pit is perfect for sheltering from the wind and rain; with just a little construction, a temporary dwelling can be built.

Although ice and snow bring cold, they can also be used to keep warm when you are in a snowy place.

However, Chen Xiuming didn't need to go through all that trouble. The Honkai energy was released from his body and instantly formed a thick wall, closely connecting with the edge of the pit to create a simple temporary dwelling.

He then casually sculpted two Honkai Energy chairs to serve as furniture for resting.

Honkai energy has endless shaping potential; as long as one has prior knowledge of the relevant information, it can be shaped into more than just weapons and tools.

Unfortunately, Chen Xiuming's energy is limited, and he hasn't yet explored other areas of knowledge, so he is temporarily unable to shape bedding, let alone directly shape flames.

He gently placed Sirin on the Honkai Energy Chair, paced back and forth in his simple temporary dwelling, and finally turned his gaze to the silent Kiana of the End.

Although he cannot conjure flames out of thin air, Kiana in the End might be able to create flames or generate sources of warmth.

Compared to Chen Xiuming's concern, Xilin paid little attention to her body temperature and injuries, sitting quietly in her chair watching Chen Xiuming pace back and forth.

Xilin really enjoyed the feeling of being cared for and loved.

Before her eyesight was restored, her mother cared for and loved her like this every day.

Since her mother's death, she had been hunted by strangers, so naturally no one was willing to care for and love her like her mother did. However, she was truly happy and blessed to meet someone who was willing to care for and love her before she died alone.

Before Chen Xiuming entered this world bubble, Xilin truly intended to wait alone for death to come.

Now, she no longer wants to wait for death to come.

Because she has lost it before, she cherishes it all the more now.

Even the smallest act of care or love is precious to her.

Things that are lost and then regained are always the most precious.

As Kiana met Chen Xiuming's gaze, she seemed to know, as if by telepathy, what he wanted her to do.

Knowing Chen Xiuming's thoughts, she was speechless, but still looked forward to his response.

Kiana made a fist with her right hand, and a golden short spear materialized, which she then plunged into the ground.

In an instant, the part of the golden spear that was stuck in the ground burst into golden flames, dispelling the cold of the temporary shelter and illuminating the darkness.

Wow—Brother Xiuming is so amazing!

From Xilin's perspective, Chen Xiuming paced back and forth for a while, and then a golden short spear materialized out of thin air, stuck into the ground, and burst into flames. She couldn't help but look at Chen Xiuming with admiration.

The blazing flames cast flickering shadows on Xilin and Chen Xiuming's faces, and as the cold receded, a comforting warmth filled their temporary shelter.

Xilin hadn't felt this warmth in a long time, and she couldn't help but squint her eyes comfortably, soon becoming drowsy.

Chen Xiuming noticed that Xilin was starting to feel sleepy, so he shaped a softer bed behind her.

"Cirin, go and get some sleep first."

Chen Xiuming affectionately stroked Xilin's head, then picked her up before she could answer.

Xilin didn't refuse Chen Xiuming's suggestion. She snuggled into his arms and murmured, sounding both sleepy and coquettish, "Xilin wants Brother Xiuming to sleep with her~"

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiuming chuckled, neither agreeing nor refusing, but instead letting Xilin lie on his lap to fall asleep.

Given the limited resources available, there wasn't even a pillow, let alone bedding, so he had to use his own thigh as a pillow.

Xilin quickly drifted into a sweet dream, dreaming of something wonderful. A naive smile graced her lips, and she would occasionally mumble a few indistinct words in her sleep, in which the words "Brother Xiuming" could be faintly heard.

Chen Xiuming gently stroked Xilin's hair, his eyelids slightly lowered as he observed the injuries on Xilin's body.

Although they were all minor injuries, such as abrasions and superficial wounds, they still made people feel sorry for them.

Xilin is only 13 years old this year. She should be an innocent and carefree age, but she has had a very tragic experience.

"Anila".

"I'm meowing~"

Anila jumped out of Chen Xiuming's shadow, lazily stretched, and asked, "What are your orders, Master?"

"I remember you said you were the 'Herrscher of Death,' so can you heal Sirin's injuries?"

"No problem, meow!"

Anila proudly raised her head, walked confidently to Sirin's side, sat down, and licked the wound on Sirin's cheek with her cat tongue.

In just a few breaths, Sirin's injuries were completely healed, while Anila's licking made her feel a little itchy, causing her to furrow her pretty brows.

"What does Master plan to do, meow?"

What are you referring to?

"Of course, it's about how to take her away, meow."

Anila licked her finger pad and continued, "She's not quite like us; she can't leave the world to molest cats by clinging to her master."

Chen Xiuming chuckled lightly: "It's simple, I'll just 'refine' the world bubble, won't I?"

After speaking, he looked at Kiana of the End, his confidence evident.

Although it requires immense power and exceptional computational ability to "reverse" the World Bubble into one's body, with the power of the End and the assistance of the Alaya Consciousness, one has the confidence and ability to "refine" the World Bubble.

49. In an instant, the world bubble is refined!

The core of this world bubble must be Sirin, or Sirin's Herrscher core. As long as it is used as a medium and supplemented by the computational ability of the Alaya consciousness, it is basically a certainty to "invert" the world bubble into the body.

However, Xilin fell into a deep sleep after a long time, and Chen Xiuming did not disturb her at this time, patiently waiting for her to wake up.

Golden flames burned slowly, radiating a warm and comforting light.

Anila curled up in a ball next to the golden spear, looking like a ball of black rice.

Kiana sat lightly next to Chen Xiuming without revealing her figure, but she reached out and took Chen Xiuming's arm.

The wind and snow outside howled incessantly, like the ferocious roar of a monstrous beast, terrifying and mournful.

Time passed slowly, and although the room was quiet, there was a warm atmosphere.

"Well……"

Celine made a soft nasal sound, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

Chen Xiuming gently stroked Xilin's hair and asked with a soft laugh, "Are you awake?"

"Mmm~ Brother Xiuming, Xilin had a sweet dream~"

"What kind of beautiful dream was it?"

"I won't tell Brother Xiuming~"

Xilin whispered sweetly, but showed no intention of getting up, continuing to rest her head on Chen Xiuming's lap.

When she woke up, she found that her injuries had healed.

However, since Chen Xiuming did not take the initiative to explain this matter, the smart and sensible girl naturally did not choose to ask.

“Brother Xiuming.”

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Well……"

Celine hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "What... should we do next?"

Xilin wasn't some clueless "stupid child." In fact, she had known all along that no other humans existed in this world; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so pessimistic and desperate, and she wouldn't have directly asked Chen Xiuming if he was the "prince" who saved her.

Chen Xiuming hesitated for a second or two, then asked seriously and solemnly, "Xilin, are you willing to believe me?"

“Of course Xilin wants to believe Brother Xiuming, because…” Xilin propped herself up, a bright and innocent smile spreading across her face, and hugged Chen Xiuming affectionately, “because Brother Xiuming is the prince who saved Xilin~”

“Then…” Chen Xiuming hugged Xilin back and gently stroked her back, “I’ll take you to the world I live in and we can live together, okay?”

"Yes! Sirin is willing!"

Before she could finish speaking, Xilin suddenly looked troubled and asked cautiously yet expectantly, "Can Xilin become Brother Xiuming's 'family'?"

"Of course you can. After all, Sirin is a gentle and kind little angel. No one can refuse or hate Sirin."

"Hmph~"

Hearing Chen Xiuming's praise, Xilin gave a haughty hum: "No way~ Xilin... Xilin will only be Xiuming-gege's 'little angel' from now on."

After saying that, Xilin seemed to have thought of something and immediately added, "She'll also be Xiuming's family's 'little angel'~"

"it is good."

Chen Xiuming patted Xilin's head, making Xilin smile happily and innocently.
