The Xiao Household's Rose-Tinted Glasses
Xiao Lin returned to the Starfall Pavilion after Xiao Yan destroyed the Human Hall and went into seclusion to absorb the Soul Origin condensed from a million souls.
Yes, this time he came back under his original identity!
With the conflict between the Heavenly Mansion Alliance and the Soul Hall intensifying, Xiao Lin was somewhat worried and came to check on things.
Given Lin Xiao's status Myriad Formation Spirit Palace Palace Master, it would be unsuitable for him to participate, as it could easily draw out the Hun Tiandi.
But what if he were to assume his original identity as Xiao Lin?
As a member of the Xiao Household, and even the Xiao Household patriarch, wouldn't it be fair if something happened to him?
Of course, the premise is that the Hun Tiandi cannot know that Xiao Lin and Lin Xiao are the same person.
Otherwise, not only would his deal with the Hun Tiandi fall through, but it could also trigger a chain reaction, causing the Hun Tiandi to abandon his millennium plan and delay it for several thousand more years. That would be a real mess.
Therefore, Xiao Lin can make a move, as long as the Hun Clan doesn't expose his true identity, there won't be any problems.
In addition, Xiao Lin came to the Starfall Pavilion because he missed his family.
After all, given Lin Xiao's status, some things are not easy to do.
Xiao Lin's arrival naturally made the whole family extremely happy.
"Great-grandfather!"
Sure enough, Xiao Xiao was the first to run towards Xiao Lin with her short legs.
"Swish"
Xiao Lin, naturally, also strode forward and scooped the little guy into his arms.
The little one is now six or seven years old, and his appearance is becoming more and more rosy and adorable.
In this respect, Xiao Xiao is particularly similar to her mother Medusa, and it's obvious at a glance that she will grow up to be a beauty.
"Xiao Xiao, have you missed your great-grandfather?"
After picking up the little one, Xiao Lin and the little one touched foreheads and Xiao Lin asked with a doting expression.
Hehe, I really want to, I think about it every day!
I must say, the little guy has a sweet tongue.
These words melted the heart of Xiao Lin, a super strong Nine-Star Dou Saint.
Having neither a daughter nor a granddaughter, Xiao Lin has naturally spoiled his great-granddaughter Xiao Xiao, rotten, hasn't he?
"But, Great-Grandpa, you don't come to see Xiao Xiao very often..."
At this moment, the little guy, while speaking, showed a wronged little expression.
This sight made Xiao Lin's heart ache.
"Ah, Xiao Xiao, don't be upset. It's Grandpa's fault for not being able to stay with you all the time. How about this, Xiao Xiao, you can make any request, and Grandpa will definitely grant it. What do you say?"
Xiao Lin might not be an expert at soothing children, but he definitely knows how.
After all, he had taken care of Xiao Zhan when they were kids!
Of course, Xiao Lin's promise to Xiao Xiao is also genuine at the moment.
If the other party were to say "I want a star from the sky" right now, Xiao Lin would definitely not hesitate and would immediately run to the Star Domain to pluck a star and give it to his beloved great-granddaughter.
Xiao Lin is the only one who doesn't have a daughter; otherwise, he'd definitely be a doting father!
"Great-Grandpa, are you serious?"
Sure enough, after hearing what Xiao Lin said, the little guy's eyes immediately started to sparkle.
"Xiao Xiao!"
However, just as Xiao Xiao was thinking about what conditions to ask her great-grandfather, Medusa spoke up from the side.
The moment Medusa spoke, Xiao Lin clearly felt the little one in his arms flinch.
Clearly, Xiao Xiao, who fears nothing at home, is only afraid of her own mother.
The whole family practically spoiled Xiao Xiao rotten, except for Medusa, who never indulged her daughter.
When it's time to strike, she never hesitates!
Medusa stopped Xiao Xiao because she was afraid that her unruly daughter would bring up something difficult again.
It's important to know that Xiao Yan's grandfather was shrouded in mystery.
She was genuinely afraid that her daughter might say something like, "Grandpa Xiao Yan is also her grandpa now," and then she might actually do something!
Currently, the Heavenly Mansion Alliance and the Soul Hall are basically engaged in small battles every three days and large battles every five days. Medusa certainly doesn't want herself and her daughter Xiao Xiao to become a burden to Xiao Yan.
Especially since Xiao Yan had previously launched a surprise attack and destroyed the Human Hall, one of the Three Great Heavenly Dipper Halls the Soul Hall, it seems that the Soul Hall is now looking for an opportunity to retaliate.
These family and friends of Xiao Yan are the most likely to become his Achilles' heel.
Therefore, for quite some time, Medusa and the others did not leave the Starfall Pavilion.
Xiao Xiao, on the other hand, is a restless and mischievous Demon King...
Medusa could practically guess what Xiao Xiao would ask her great-grandfather for next.
"Mother..."
Xiao Xiao felt wronged.
Before she could say anything, her mother scolded her.
Grandpa finally came back, and she thought she could finally have some fun.
"Cai Lin, don't frighten the child. Xiao Xiao is so well-behaved and sensible; don't be too harsh on her."
Sensing the little guy's grievance, Xiao Lin immediately spoke up to defend him.
Medusa: "..."
Medusa was speechless.
She didn't know what to say about Xiao Yan's family.
This filter applied to Xiao Xiao is way too strong!
Everyone thinks Xiao Xiao is well-behaved and sensible?
Obedient my ass! Sensible my ass!
This Demon King, she'd be lucky if she didn't make herself angry for a day.
However, whenever she wanted to teach Xiao Xiao a lesson, she was stopped more than 90% of the time.
She felt so emotionally exhausted.
"Grandpa, Xiao Xiao is very naughty, you can't spoil her like this..."
Although she was still getting used to it, Medusa gradually learned to call Xiao Lin" Grandpa".
To be honest, whenever Xiao Lin heard Medusa call him "Grandpa," and then thought back to the first time he met her, Xiao Lin felt a special sense of satisfaction.
Of course, now is not the time for Xiao Lin to worry about this matter.
"Mother, Xiao Xiao isn't naughty..."
Before Xiao Lin could even speak, the little guy protested, sounding aggrieved.
How was she being naughty?
He just likes to play!
As expected, Mother was too strict!
"Kids will be kids, it's okay for them to be a little mischievous. Besides, Xiao Xiao is at an age where she should be able to express her true nature!"
Xiao Lin retorted without a care in the world.
"That's right, Great-Grandpa is right!"
The little guy quickly chimed in.
"Yes, Sister Cai Lin, Xiao Xiao is the kind of person her age should have."
"Sister Cai Lin, I also think Xiao Yi Xian makes a good point."
"Ahem~, Cai Lin, on this point, I actually share the same opinion as everyone else."
"Xiao Xiao's situation is special. She's already a Dou Zong, so it's not suitable for her to cultivate anymore. Letting her play around a bit more is fine."
"Xiao Xiao still young and doesn't need to shoulder any responsibilities. As long as she has fun, that's all that matters."
Sure enough, Nalan Yanran, Xiao Yi Xian, Xiao Zhan, Yang Xiyue and others standing to the side also chimed in.
Seeing that everyone in the family, except for his own mother, was his ally, the little guy suddenly became smug.
Medusa: "..."
She was exhausted; what else could she say?
