Xiao Lin's Daily Life

"Sigh~"

Just as Zi Yan was taking Xiao Xiao around to play, Xiao Lin couldn't help but sigh to the heavens.

I thought I had changed things, but they still happened.

The key point is, he doesn't seem to be in a position to stop Xiao Xiao and Zi Yan from contacting each other!

Sure enough, Zi Yan had only been at the Starfall Pavilion for two or three days, and Xiao Xiao's face had already regained its usual smile.

To be fair, Zi Yan's childlike nature gives her a natural ability to win over children.

Moreover, even though it was their first meeting, Zi Yan always seemed to know what Xiao Xiao liked.

It's as if there's a destiny line between the two of them; they're naturally compatible.

Perhaps for Xiao Xiao, Zi Yan was both like an older sister, knowing what she wanted to do, and like an elder, taking care of her.

This is something that none of Xiao Lin and his group could learn.

They can be good elders to Xiao Xiao, but they can't be her playmates.

However, despite his sighs, Xiao Lin quickly came to terms with it.

Even if Xiao Xiao "goes astray," it's Xiao Yan who'll be the one getting into trouble, not him, right?

Could it be that when Xiao Xiao grows up, she'll call Xiao Yan "Old Deng," and even call him her great-grandfather "Old Deng"?

That obviously doesn't exist!

Having figured this out, Xiao Lin naturally let go of the past.

His seniority speaks for itself!

All I can say is, let's just say Xiao Yan suffer a bit.

"Xiao Yan, if your little cotton-padded jacket (a term of endearment for children) leaks in the future, it's not Grandpa's fault!"

After accepting the situation, Xiao Lin even felt a little schadenfreude.

Anyway, he always liked to mess with Xiao Yan, so this outcome isn't so bad!

Of course, although Xiao Xiao "went astray" in the Original Work, only her way of addressing Xiao Yan changed; everything else remained the same.

She still has deep feelings for her father; it's just that their way of interacting has changed.

Just like now, Xiao Xiao likes to stick to her father every time he comes home.

However, when Xiao Xiao was born, the feud between the Xiao Household and the Hun Clan had not yet been resolved. Xiao Yan often focused his energy on dealing with the Hun Clan and had little energy to spend with Xiao Xiao.

This led to Xiao Xiao enjoying complaining about her father as she grew up.

However, this was just a complaint; she still deeply respects and loves her father!

It was precisely because Xiao Xiao and Zi Yan's relationship was merely a superficial "bad influence" that Xiao Lin did not insist on stopping them from seeing each other.

Besides, Xiao Xiao's mood improved because Zi Yan kept her company, talked to her, and took care of her. Would Xiao Lin have lost his mind to prevent the two of them from seeing each other?

It should be noted that after Xiao Zhan and Yang Xiyue returned to the Northwest Continent, Xiao Lin, Xue Lan, Yao Ye, and the occasionally returning Yao Lao had comforted Xiao Xiao countless times, but to little avail.

In this situation, this is arguably the best possible outcome.

Xiao Xiao was happy, and everyone else was happy too.

For the next period of time, Zi Yan also stayed in the Starfall Pavilion.

As for the so-called duties of the Dragon Emperor, it's fine. Her old man is idle anyway, so it's only right that he manages the Ancient Void Dragon Clan for her.

Zi Yan felt no remorse whatsoever for exploiting her retired father's labor.

It can only be said that the early release of Zhukun from the Ancient Emperor's Cave by Xiao Lin brought tremendous changes to the Ancient Void Dragon Clan!

In the Original Work, at this point in time, all Three Great Dragon Kings had already begun challenging Zi Yan's position as Dragon Emperor.

In this life, with Zhukun standing there, which foolish dragon would dare to cause trouble?

Therefore, at this point in time, the ancient Ancient Dragon Island is calm and peaceful!

All the dragons enthusiastically supported their new Dragon Emperor, Zi Yan!

The fact that there was no internal strife on Ancient Dragon Island is a relief, as it's one of the few things that can be considered troublesome.

As for Xiao Lin, he now has another opportunity to enjoy his retirement life.

With his current strength, even with normal cultivation, he wouldn't be able to reach the Late-Stage Nine-Star Dou Saint by the end.

During this period, he can only look for opportunities to overtake others.

As for the next opportunity to be born into this world, there are still two years to go.

So, he can live a very laid-back life for the next two years.

During his time at the Starfall Pavilion, he spent his days basking in the sun, drinking tea, and taking care of Xiao Xiao, without any worries whatsoever!

This life is simply awesome!

Of course, this is actually the calm before the storm.

Because after the demonic fire descended upon the world, one thing after another happened, and he simply didn't have time to rest.

In addition, Xiao Lin didn't just stay in the Starfall Pavilion to slack off.

Occasionally, when he feels like it, he will go out and wander around to other places.

He went to the Sound Valley to listen to Yan Suxin play the zither for him, went to the Beast Region to see Tian Huangzi ruling the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, and even went to the Ancient Dragon Island deep in the Void to chat with the old Dragon Emperor Zhu Kun.

Finally, Xiao Lin also returned to the Northwest Continent.

He first went to the Jia Nan Academy to listen to Su Qian's complaints, and then added many more Formations to the Trial Grounds, while also leaving some opportunities for his students.

Then he left again, never staying at the Jia Nan Academy for a full month in total.

After that, Xiao Lin returned to the Xiao Household.

The Xiao Household family was already used to their father's (father-in-law/clan head) sudden return.

Upon returning to the Xiao Household, Xiao Lin naturally saw Xiao Zhan and a group of Xiao Household Leadership already making various preparations for relocating to Central Plains.

This time, after the Soul Hall is destroyed, apart from leaving a portion of the Xiao Household to guard the ancestral Ancestral Residence in the Imperial Capital, the rest, whether they are members of the Xiao Household in Wutan City or Xiao Household clansmen in the Xiao Realm of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, will relocate to the Central Plains.

Because the Northwest Continent can no longer support the Xiao Household's development.

At the same time, the existence of the Xiao Household also squeezed out the development of other forces in the area.

There's a saying, "People strive to rise higher, water flows downhill."

The Xiao Household is now on the rise.

However, if the entire Xiao Realm is to be relocated to Central Plains, Xiao Lin will still need to intervene.

To move a piece of space, one must be Dou Sheng of at least six stars who has mastered the ability of Spatial Displacement!

As for the Xiao Household nowadays, besides Xiao Lin's family, they have also produced quite a few Dou Emperor over the years.

After all, if the resources of the Central Plains are used to subsidize a small Dou Wang Family in the Northwest Continent, it would be strange if the latter didn't rise to power!

In fact, in a few years, the Xiao Household will continue to produce Dou Zong.

Because for Xiao Yan now, Sect Breaking Pill a whole batch of Breakthrough Pills is a piece of cake!

If the family hadn't discussed it together and decided not to push things too hard, the Xiao Household would already have Dou Zong outside of Xiao Lin's family.

Even so, the Xiao Household already has a considerable number of Dou Emperor.

As for those who are Dou Wang or Dou Ling, their numbers are countless.

This is the Xiao Household today!
