Nan Xunran frowned, glanced at it indifferently, and then stopped dwelling on the matter.
He closed his eyes, carefully sensing Jue's body.
A moment later, he opened his eyes, his gaze fixed on Jue, his voice cold. "You can transform into a woman?"
Upon hearing this, Jue nodded rapidly, her head bobbing like a chick pecking at rice, "Mmm-hmm!"
He jumped up and down, waving his little hands happily, "I am a vessel, and I have no distinction between male and female. I can take any shape I want."
Nan Xunran narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice carrying a hint of inquiry, "You know you are a vessel?"
Jue nodded heavily, stating firmly, "My aura is different from my father's."
"Then why do you call me father?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Jue's eyes instantly reddened, and her clear eyes filled with tears that were about to spill over.
His lips trembled slightly as he sobbed, "Wasn't it you who created me?"
Nan Xunran frowned slightly, raised his hand to rub his temples, and looked down at Xiao Xueyin, who was still unconscious.
Then, he turned to Jue and said calmly, "Go, kill her."
Jue immediately stood up, her small body ramrod straight.
He nodded vigorously and replied, "Understood, Father!"
Then, he raised his finger and flicked it lightly.
In an instant, the air around Xiao Xueyin seemed to be sucked away by a mysterious force, disappearing completely.
Startled awake by this sudden turn of events, Xiao Xueyin let out a soft groan of pain. "Ugh...!"
Immediately afterwards, Jue's palm slowly pressed down.
In mid-air, a powerful force began to gather, and a gigantic hand that blotted out the sky gradually took shape.
That palm exuded a chilling pressure, heavy as a mountain, as if it could crush everything in the world.
As Jue pressed down, his large palm, carrying the force of thunder, slammed towards Xiao Xueyin.
Xiao Xueyin stared wide-eyed in terror, screaming desperately, "No...!"
However, before she could finish speaking, the large hand slammed down.
With a deep, muffled roar, the earth instantly cracked open, and countless fissures spread rapidly like a spider web.
Xiao Xueyin was powerless to resist this unstoppable force and was instantly crushed into dust by the powerful impact.
Immediately afterwards, the dust drifted slowly through the air, gradually dissipating into the world No Trace.
"Ding-dong!"
[The Daughter of Heaven’s Mandate Xiao Xueyin, has died due to the death of her host.]
[Heaven’s Mandate Points Reset to Zero]
[Host's Kill Points increased by 145080 points]
Jue turned her head, beaming, and said, "Father, it's done!"
Nan Xunran nodded slightly.
At this moment, a mixture of tension and anticipation appeared on Jue's face.
He tentatively reached out his little hand, trying to grab Nan Xunran's fingertips, but missed.
He stood on tiptoe, unwilling to give up, his small body straining upwards, his brows furrowed tightly, but he still couldn't reach it.
He reluctantly landed on his heels, his gaze instantly fixing on Nan Xunran's sleeve, which he then grabbed tightly.
"Father, you're so tall..."
He muttered to himself, his voice filled with amazement, yet tinged with disappointment.
Nan Xunran noticed a slight tugging at her sleeve, but only glanced at it briefly before paying no further attention.
Seeing this, Jue's smile widened, revealing a set of clean, even teeth.
He waved his arm, and instantly, a door slowly opened before him.
An extremely powerful sense of oppression emanated from within, distorting the surrounding space beyond recognition.
"Father, let's go!"
Nan Xunran responded with a "Mm."
He then stepped inside, and Jue clung tightly to his sleeve, jogging to keep up.
Wilderness
Wei Yan in place, her long dress swaying gently in the breeze.
Suddenly, her eyes narrowed, and she stared intently at the door that had reappeared before her.
In the blink of an eye, Nan Xunran stepped out of the door and instantly came into Wei Yan's line of sight.
Wei Yan's eyes instantly lit up, and she smiled, "A-Ran...?"
She had only spoken halfway when her gaze was immediately drawn to Nan Xunran.
Her gaze was fixed on the hand that Jue was holding Nan Xunran's, her brows furrowed, and she asked in confusion, "A-Ran, what's this?"
Sensing Wei Yan's gaze, Nan Xunran and softly called out, "Father..."
Upon hearing this shout, Wei Yan was instantly struck dumb, frozen in place.
She could hardly believe her ears and asked, "... What's your A-Ran?"
Jue replied softly again, "Father."
As soon as she finished speaking, Wei Yan stared blankly at Nan Xunran, her mind a jumbled mess of thoughts, a chaotic jumble of ideas.
Her mouth was slightly open, but she couldn't utter a sound; she seemed to be petrified.
After a long while, Wei Yan slowly blinked, struggling to regain her senses.
