Time to Say Goodbye, a Pinky Promise

As the brilliant light emanating from the Little Silver Dragon plunged into the earth...

The entire Star Beast World, like Withered Wood, visibly bursts forth with vibrant life.

Tender shoots sprouted from the Scorched Earth, new branches emerged from the withered trees, and water seeped from the bottom of the dried-up riverbed.

Su Ye watched this scene, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

He originally planned to kill a batch of Star Beast to accumulate some Slaughter Value, since he had burned all his Slaughter Value to ashes when he mastered the Po Jun Nine Blades, and now he was penniless.

But given the current situation, he was a little embarrassed to speak up.

These Star Beast are now all under the Little Silver Dragon's command.

And there's an even more important reason.

With the successful gestation of the World Origin, the Star Beast World was like Withered Wood. Those mad beasts that originally Scarlet eyes and would bite anyone they saw gradually regained their senses.

Although they haven't fully recovered—some are still drooling, some are limping, and some are talking to themselves in front of trees—at least they're no longer going berserk, no longer biting each other, and they don't bare their teeth at Su Ye anymore. They even tilt their heads with a confused expression, as if to say, "Who are you?"

Su Ye squatted down in front of a three-headed giant beast and waved his hand in front of its eyes.

The giant beast's three heads turned in unison with his finger, its six eyes filled with utter naiveté.

Su Ye sighed.

Never mind.

These guys may not seem very bright, but they are still the future subjects of the Little Silver Dragon. He can't very well slaughter someone's soldiers in front of their king.

The Little Silver Dragon in mid-air, feeling the warmth and affection emanating from the world, and was incredibly excited.

She flew around in the sky, flicking her tail, her silver Scale shimmering in the brightened sky. Her Big Eye sparkled with indescribable excitement and joy.

She finally did it.

The World Origin Seed, which had been dormant for countless years, finally sprouted, took root, and flourished under her nurturing.

This once desolate and barren Heaven and Earth seemed to have truly accepted her as its new master at this moment.

A warm and intimate aura surged from all directions, enveloping the Little Silver Dragon, as if countless living beings were bowing in worship to their king.

Feeling this unprecedented surge of excitement, the Little Silver Dragon soared into the air, its silver tail drawing dazzling arcs of light.

Not content with flying in one circle, she swooped down again, circled Su Ye several times, and finally buried her head in his arms, rubbing her head against his chest.

He shouted excitedly in a voice that still had a hint of childishness.

"Daddy! Daddy!"

"I did it! I really did it!"

"This world is talking to me! It's saying it's alive!"

"It also said that things will get better and better! There will be lots and lots of trees, lots and lots of flowers, lots and lots of water! Dad! I did it!"

"They all say I'm the new king! Daddy, please praise me!"

The Little Silver Dragon tilted its head back, its Big Eye blinking expectantly, just like a child who had gotten Full Marks score and was eager for praise.

Looking at her like this, Su Ye couldn't help but reach out and gently rub her cool and smooth dragon horns.

"Well done, great job. You're such a wonderful daughter."

Upon hearing this, the Little Silver Dragon was even happier than if it had eaten honey. Its tiny body almost swelled up, and it wiggled around in Su Ye's arms with its tail held high.

"Is there a reward?"

Su Ye smiled. "What reward do you want?"

"Hmm..." The Little Silver Dragon tilted its head and thought for a moment, "Daddy, play with me a little longer!"

Before Su Ye could answer, a muffled snort came from the side.

Qiongqi lay beside him, its dark golden beast eyes fixed on the Little Silver Dragon in Su Ye's arms, its gaze complex.

My heart ached so much.

He worked tirelessly, guarding this little brat day and night, exhausting himself...

And the result?

The little brat turned around and jumped into Su Ye's arms, calling him "Daddy" over and over again, so affectionately that he didn't even glance at his "old father."

Qiongqi pursed its lips and snorted inwardly.

That little brat... just like her dead mother, always thinking about others.

Just because Su Ye is good-looking?

When did the Fierce Beast realm start judging by appearance?

Su Ye played with the Little Silver Dragon for a while, and finally it was time to say goodbye.

As the Star Beast World begins to recover, those Secret Realm Entrance connecting to the Human World will gradually disappear.

The two Small World will return to a state of mutual non-interference.

Su Ye and Xiao Qiyue will eventually have to return to the Human World.

When Su Ye told the Little Silver Dragon the news, the Little Silver Dragon's tail immediately drooped down.

"Is Dad leaving?"

Her voice trailed off, and her Big Eye quickly filled with tears.

"Dad! I don't want you to leave!"

The Little Silver Dragon buried its head in Su Ye's arms, its claws gripping his collar tightly. The entire dragon clung to him like a silver scarf.

"I want to go with you! Wherever you go, I'll go!"

Her aggrieved look was enough to melt anyone's heart.

Su Ye's heart softened as well.

He knelt down, held the Little Silver Dragon in his arms, gently patted her back, and coaxed her.

"My dear, you are now the king of the Star Beast World. This world has just begun to recover, and these people need you. What will happen to them if you leave?"

"Are you really going to abandon this land that your mother risked her life to protect, and just leave it alone?"

The Little Silver Dragon heard the word "Mom"...

His body stiffened instantly.

She looked up at Su Ye, her eyes red-rimmed.

She had heard Su Ye and Qiongqi tell her about her mother many times. She knew that this world was bought with her mother's life; she also knew that as the new king, she had a responsibility to Protection this world.

But she still couldn't bear to Su Ye.

The Little Silver Dragon was twitching.

"But... but they're so stupid..."

That's why we need you.

Su Ye patiently coaxed him.

The Little Silver Dragon stopped talking, but it was still sniffling.

She couldn't bear to part with Su Ye.

Qiongqi also came over, and unusually softened its voice to offer some advice.

"Little guy, your dad... cough, Su Ye is right."

"You are now king; you can no longer be as willful as before."

"Besides, if you go with him, you won't even have mastered all his skills yet. Wouldn't that be a waste?"

"Stay here and cultivate diligently, bring order to this world, and once it's restored, you can go wherever you want."

Although the Little Silver Dragon was still reluctant to part with Qiongqi, it ultimately took his words to heart.

The Little Silver Dragon lifted its head from Su Ye's arms, looking at him with teary eyes.

"Then... will Daddy come back to pick me up?"

Su Ye nodded solemnly.

"Certainly."

"I'll go to the Divine Realm first to pave the way... Once I've established myself and you've completely restored this world, I'll come back for you. Then I'll take you to the Divine Realm to see a bigger world."

"This is our agreement."

The Little Silver Dragon sniffed.

"Real?"

"Real."

Meeting Su Ye's determined gaze, the Little Silver Dragon reluctantly agreed.

With red eyes, she stretched out her tiny dragon claw and stubbornly held it up in front of Su Ye.

"Pinky promise!"

You have to keep your word!

Looking at her stubborn yet aggrieved expression, Su Ye felt both amused and heartbroken.

He reached out and hooked his hand with the tiny dragon claw.

"Pinky promise, a hundred years from now."

"If I change... I'll be Zhu Bajie."

Upon hearing this, the Little Silver Dragon stopped crying and started to laugh, though his laugh was still somewhat forced.

"Hehe, Dad, you said it yourself, you can't go back on your word!"
