Returning Home, Father and Daughter Meet

Inside the unknown Spatial Passage, a man and a woman held hands tightly together, showing no intention of letting go.

The man and woman were none other than Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian, who had just left the Starfall Pavilion in Central Plains.

Both of them were already Dou Zun expert, so it was perfectly normal for them to open up Spatial Passages to travel.

The Spatial Power, though indeed incredibly mysterious and powerful, is still a force to be reckoned with for those below the Dou Venerable.

But in the eyes of Dou Venerable, it was really nothing special.

At this moment, Xiao Yan was actually feeling somewhat emotional.

Thinking back, he went to Central Plains with Nalan Yanran, but now he's returning hand in hand with Xiao Yi Xian. It just feels a little strange.

In addition, when he traveled from the Northwest Continent to the Central Plains, he had to use the Spatial Wormhole on the border of the Northwest Continent.

What about now?

He already possesses the ability to create Spatial Passages!

It can only be said that it is relatively easy for Dou Zun expert to travel between the two continents.

"Xiao Yan..."

Just as the two were traversing the Spatial Passage, Xiao Yi Xian suddenly called out to Xiao Yan softly.

"Hmm? Xiao Yi Xian, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Seeing that Xiao Yi Xian was perfectly fine before stepping into the Spatial Passage, but now her expression suddenly seemed a bit off, Xiao Yan quickly asked with concern.

He thought Xiao Yi Xian was unwell.

"No... I'm just worried that your parents might not accept me..."

Xiao Yi Xian's anxious and insecure personality was on full display once again.

When Xiao Yan heard that Xiao Yi Xian was worried about this, he couldn't help but smile.

"What are you thinking? Don't you even have our Engagement Contract in your hand? What? Are you afraid to meet my parents now?"

Xiao Yan also found it quite amusing.

I still remember that day; Xiao Yi Xian was so brave that even he was afraid!

To be honest, he was the one who was pushed around in the first place!

Although he eventually got his revenge, that doesn't negate the audacity of Xiao Yi Xian at the beginning!

Faced with Xiao Yan's teasing, Xiao Yi Xian couldn't help but blush slightly.

However, since the two were already an old married couple, Xiao Yi Xian quickly put away her shyness.

"How dare you say that? If I hadn't forced you, how long would you have made me wait? Did you expect me to wait a lifetime?"

Even Xiao Yi Xian was using a rare hint of coquettishness in her tone at this moment.

She never knew these things before.

But ever since she had a relationship with Xiao Yan, she discovered that she had learned many things on her own...

"Ahem~, how could that be? I'm just waiting for the right opportunity, that's right!"

After feigning a cough, Xiao Yan's words were neither logically sound nor entirely forceful.

For this, Xiao Yi Xian simply rolled her eyes at him.

If Xiao Yan really thought that way, she wouldn't have needed to go to such lengths!

After all, it's rare for a woman to take the initiative in this kind of situation.

But there was nothing he could do; Xiao Yan had been hesitant and indecisive all along.

Doesn't that mean she has no choice but to take the initiative and pressure Xiao Yan?

"By the way, you still haven't answered me: do your parents dislike me?"

The topic that had been digressed was brought up again by Xiao Yi Xian.

"Silly girl, my grandfather has already accepted you, do you think my parents wouldn't?"

Xiao Yan asked back with a hint of helplessness.

He truly loves and pities the Xiao Yi Xian's personality!

"Grandpa Xiao is Grandpa Xiao, and your parents are your parents, they're not the same..."

Xiao Yi Xian continued muttering to herself.

However, Xiao Yi Xian's considerations were not entirely without merit.

Although with that Engagement Contract, she could rightfully stand by Xiao Yan's side.

However, compared to Engagement Contract, she naturally wanted the direct approval of Xiao Zhan and Yang Xiyue.

Furthermore, even without the connection to Xiao Yan Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin was still the person Xiao Yi Xian respected most in her heart!

What's more, Grandpa Xiao is still the Palace Master!

That's why Xiao Yi Xian didn't feel as much pressure when facing Xiao Lin.

But Xiao Yan's parents are different; they are her future in-laws!

Which daughter-in-law isn't worried about how her in-laws perceive her?

"Okay, okay, even though my grandfather and my parents are different, I believe they have one thing in common!"

When Xiao Yan spoke, his voice was filled with doting affection.

What is it?

At the same time, Xiao Yi Xian subconsciously asked in return.

"Of course, it's because I like you, Xiao Yi Xian!"

Xiao Yan raised an eyebrow at Xiao Yi Xian and said with a smile.

Sure enough, as Xiao Yan finished speaking, a slight blush returned to Xiao Yi Xian's cheeks.

"He just knows how to make me happy..."

Finally, Xiao Yi Xian spoke these words so softly that Xiao Yan almost couldn't hear them.

However, after Xiao Yan said that, Xiao Yi Xian's anxious and uncertain feelings gradually calmed down.

Afterwards, the two chatted and laughed (flirting) all the way back to the Northwest Continent.

Next, they entered the Jia Ma Empire and quickly approached the Wutan City.

Because Xiao Yan's return to the Northwest Continent in this life is much earlier than in the Original Work.

Therefore, there is no truth to the claim that he returned at the exact moment to save people, thus earning the nickname "Time-Cut Guy".

As for the Battle of Xuanhuang Fortress in the Original Work, it hasn't even started yet!

So, Xiao Yan returned to the Xiao Household with Xiao Yi Xian in a fairly ordinary way, without any dramatic or unexpected events.

However, after entering the Xiao Household...

"Young Master Xiao Yan is back!"

The guards at the Xiao Household's gate had already rushed into the Xiao Household's residence, shouting loudly.

Of course, when their young master returned, they couldn't just stand at the door and wait.

Seeing his clansmen so excited to see him, Xiao Yan simply smiled and continued to hold Xiao Yi Xian's hand, walking step by step into the Xiao Household compound.

This was Xiao Yi Xian's first time entering the Xiao Household, and she became a little nervous again.

Although she had visited Wutan City before and even came to the vicinity of the Xiao Household, she had not been there before.

However, she only intended to take a quick look at Xiao Yan and then leave, so naturally she couldn't enter the Xiao Household compound.

"Don't be nervous, relax. My parents are very easy to get along with; you'll see soon enough."

Xiao Yan gently comforted Xiao Yi Xian.

"Um."

Xiao Yi Xian nodded, trying her best to remain calm.

However, the deeper she went into the Xiao Household compound, and the faster her heart beat as she faced the gazes of the other members of the Xiao Yi Xian Xiao Household!

"Tap tap~"

Just as Xiao Yi Xian felt her heart was about to jump out of her chest, a series of rapidly approaching footsteps distracted her a little, preventing her from becoming too tense.

Immediately afterwards, both Xiao Yan and Xiao Yi Xian saw a little girl, about two years old, wearing a pink princess dress and with a small braid, running towards them at a speed that was not appropriate for her age.

"Knock knock~"

At the same time, Xiao Yan was completely stunned the moment he saw the little girl.

Perhaps it was the blood connection between father and daughter.

The little girl who had run over, Xiao Xiao, suddenly stopped in front of Xiao Yan and raised her little head.

And so, for the first time in their lives, the father and daughter's eyes met.

Subconsciously, Xiao Yan slowly squatted down.

Although it was their first time meeting, Xiao Yan had a feeling that the little girl in front of him definitely had a close relationship with him!

"May I have your name?"

Xiao Yan asked in a slightly trembling voice.

Furthermore, as he asked the question, he unconsciously reached out and touched Xiao Xiao's delicate pink face.

Faced with Xiao Yan's question, Xiao Xiao showed no shyness whatsoever, and instead answered crisply, "My name is Xiao Xiao. Are you my father?"

Upon hearing the word "father" and sensing the blood connection between himself and the little girl before him, Xiao Yan almost immediately knew the answer.
