Han Mengxiao looked down at her arms, and sure enough, just as she had feared, Tian Miao had been woken up!

Tianmiao's little face scrunched up, and he opened his eyes in distress. The old man and the little boy stared at each other for a moment, and at that very instant, Tianmiao's earth-shattering, ghost-weeping cry rang out!

Obviously, when the little guy woke up, he thought he would see his beautiful mother when he opened his eyes, but instead he was met with a strange old man he didn't recognize, which frightened him quite a bit.

"Oh dear, my precious grandson, it's your grandpa! Don't cry, don't cry..."

While soothing the little one in her arms, Han Mengxiao glared angrily at Han Yu and whispered, "You brat, I'll teach you a lesson next time!"

"Little baby, don't cry... Is Grandpa really that scary? Little darling, don't cry!" Han Mengxiao tried to comfort him for a long time, but the little baby in his arms cried even louder, which made him call him "little darling".

Han Rou couldn't help but laugh and stepped forward to help, wanting to hug Tian Miao. However, Han Mengxiao dodged Han Rou's hands, wailing, "What! I only hugged him for a little while, and you want to take him back! No way!"

Han Mengxiao vividly remembered that four years ago, Han Rou brought Tian Xie back. At that time, Tian Xie was a month older than Tian Miao is now. As soon as she held the little girl in her arms, she pouted unhappily and looked like she was about to cry.

As a result, Han Rou snatched her precious granddaughter back from her arms and refused to let her hold her again. No one else was allowed to touch Tian Xie, which is why Han Yu said at the beginning that no one was allowed to touch Tian Xie. This time, Han Mengxiao would not give the child back. She was determined to hold her to her heart's content!

"Dad, let me comfort him. Once he stops crying, you can hold him again." Han Rou reached out her hand once more.

Han Mengxiao shook her head resolutely. "When you were little, wasn't it me who comforted you? What's so hard about comforting a child? Your father has plenty of ways!"

While Han Rou remained silent, Han Mengxiao unexpectedly pulled out a small dagger inlaid with seven different colored gems from her bosom.

He placed the dagger in front of Tian Miao and said with a grin, "My dear grandson, what do you think of Grandpa's Seven Star Dagger? It's a top-grade immortal artifact! Let's make a deal, if you don't cry, Grandpa will give you this Seven Star Dagger, how about that?"

Tianmiao first curiously reached out, the dagger waving in front of his eyes. He looked like he was a little tempted, and suddenly snatched it away, but the crying in his mouth did not stop.

"Oh dear, you little rascal, I've already given you the thing, and you're still crying!" Han Mengxiao was a bit annoyed. Originally, he wanted to take the dagger back when the little guy reached out to take it, and then give it to him after he stopped crying. Who knew that the little guy was slowly reaching out, but when he wanted to tease him by waving the thing in front of him, the little guy's hands moved like lightning and he snatched the thing away in a flash.

Tianmiao curiously fiddled with the dagger in her hand, her tear-streaked face lifting up as she glanced at Han Mengxiao with great curiosity before her crying abruptly stopped.

Just as Han Mengxiao was about to laugh with joy because the child had stopped crying, the little guy suddenly threw the Seven Star Dagger. Fortunately, Han Mengxiao was quick-witted and caught it before it fell to the ground.

As Han Mengxiao received the dagger, Tian Miao's cries rang out again.

"My little darling, why are you crying again!" Han Mengxiao said with a mournful expression, "This is a top-grade immortal artifact, and you just threw it away like that! Don't you even care about this? What do you want to stop crying?"

"Dad, he's just a month old baby, he doesn't know anything about being a treasure or anything like that. You should give him back to me quickly." Han Rou's voice was somewhat helpless. She really couldn't do anything with her father, who actually wanted to use something to negotiate with a one-month-old baby.

Han Mengxiao did not return the child to her. He smiled slightly, as if he had made a decision.

He placed his palm against his chest, and a gentle light emanated from his palm. As he clenched his fist and opened it again, a transparent gem, as clear as a water droplet, appeared in his palm.

Under the sunlight, the gemstone shone brilliantly. Upon closer inspection, one could see transparent veins within it, each seemingly filled with a faint, almost invisible white gas. These gases appeared still, but in reality, they were flowing at an incredibly fast pace, imperceptible to the naked eye, radiating a powerful life force.

"My dear grandson, this is a rare treasure, something others would kill for. As long as you don't cry, Grandpa will give it to you!" Han Mengxiao tempted Tian Miao with the teardrop-shaped gem.

Although this precious treasure is small, it is equivalent to the entire collection of the Han family. Han Mengxiao is now a Luo Tian Shangxian. He is about the same age as Tianfeng's father, Tianba, but he is one level higher than Tianba. Although it is only one level, for cultivators in the immortal realm, this level leap may be impossible to achieve even in a thousand years.

Tianba had only recently reached the realm of the Great Luo Golden Immortal. Now, he has been injured by Hua Qianye, and his lifespan has been greatly reduced. Even if Tianba had not been injured, given his previous lifespan, he would not have been able to guarantee that he would have reached the realm of the Luo Tian Shang Immortal before his lifespan ran out.

The reason why Han Mengxiao was able to reach the rank of Luo Tian Shangxian so quickly was largely due to the help of this teardrop-shaped treasure. During cultivation, it can absorb the purest gas in the area, the purest immortal energy in the immortal realm, and the most refined spiritual energy in the mortal realm, helping cultivators improve more than ten times faster.

Han Rou was startled by her father's impulsive action and exclaimed, "You mustn't! Father, this thing is too precious, too important to you..."

Before Han Rou could finish speaking, Tian Miao's crying stopped because of the teardrop-shaped Hong Bao in front of him.

His innocent, bright black eyes were fixed on the gemstone before him, as if frozen in time. At the same time, his pupils shone with a golden light.

To everyone's astonishment, the golden light in the little guy's pupils vanished without a trace. He reached out his chubby little hand and snatched Hongbao like a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey. He looked at it again and again, tears still on his face, yet he displayed an extremely radiant smile.

He actually stopped crying; he had clearly been bribed! He'd made a deal with Han Mengxiao!

Like the adults around him, Tianxie was stunned by the golden light that had just appeared in his younger brother's pupils.

Hua Qianye's eyes lit up, and she said with a faint smile, "I wanted your tears, and I offered you the ring in exchange for crying! Now your brother has traded not crying for such a wonderful treasure! You two siblings are truly blessed with extraordinary opportunities!"

"Why are my brother's eyes shining with golden light?" Tianxie seemed to be asking the adults, but she was actually asking Hua Qianye beside her. For some reason, she had a feeling that only Hua Qianye could answer this question.

Hua Qianye sighed, "It seems that Heaven is indeed fair. It didn't give your younger brother spiritual roots, immortal roots, or immortal bones, but it did give him astonishing talent that no one else possesses!"

Apart from Tianxie, no one present could see Hua Qianye or hear his voice. At this moment, the adults present all surrounded Tianmiao, trying to discern something amiss. Just as Tianxie had expected, no one answered her question; no one could provide an answer.

While everyone was engrossed in discussing his younger brother, Tianxie whispered, "Amazing talent? Could you explain it more clearly?"
