Xiao Xiao's Change
Starfall Pavilion.
Just as Yao Lao and the others received the message that Xiao Yan had left the Demonic Flame Space, Xiao Yan returned with Xun'er.
Looking at his increasingly spirited disciple, who was even leaving him far behind, Yao Lao felt only deep satisfaction.
"Good, good! It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"
And so, the Yao Lao is currently sighing incessantly.
The pressure from the Soul Hall over the past two years vanished instantly upon seeing Xiao Yan return safely.
Apart from the Yao Lao, everyone else was equally overjoyed.
"Xiao Yan, I knew you'd be alright!"
At this moment, Xiao Ding walked up to Xiao Yan, looked his younger brother up and down, and patted the latter on the shoulder with satisfaction.
Given Xiao Yan's current strength and status, there are very few people who would dare to treat him like this.
But what could he do? Xiao Ding was his older brother.
"Tch~, Big brother, you still have to say that? I wonder who it was that, during the two years that Xiao Yan was trapped in the Demonic Flame Space, spent all day sighing and lamenting that they were sorry to their parents and grandfather..."
This comes from Xiao Li undermining his own elder brother.
"You little rascal! If you don't speak, no one will think you're mute!"
Seeing his embarrassing secret exposed by his other younger brother, Xiao Ding blushed and became furious with embarrassment.
"Hahaha..."
A burst of hearty laughter then rang out.
Witnessing this heartwarming scene, Xiao Yan could only smile.
At the same time, Xiao Yan secretly made a vow in his heart.
He must protect all of this!
As for the others, needless to say, they were all happy for Xiao Yan's return.
"Huh? Right, where's Grandpa? And where's Senior Zi Yan?"
After the initial playful banter with his family and friends, Xiao Yan suddenly asked a question.
Of all his family and friends, besides his parents who had already returned to the Northwest Continent, where is his grandfather?
Therefore, Xiao Yan was naturally somewhat worried.
Furthermore, after breaking through to the level of Six-Star Dou Sheng, Xiao Yan's confidence in himself increased.
He felt that he should be able to see through his grandfather's abilities now, right?
Upon hearing Xiao Yan ask about their grandfather, the brothers Xiao Ding and Xiao Li subconsciously glanced over.
Noticing the expressions on his elder and second elder brothers' faces, Xiao Yan's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
"Big brother, second brother, has something happened to Grandpa?"
Xiao Yan asked instinctively.
Xiao Yan clearly cares deeply about his family.
Although his grandfather often tricked him, he could naturally feel that his grandfather's love for him was genuine!
"It's not that serious, Xiao Yan. Don't worry about Grandpa's affairs. He just went back to the sect."
This is absolutely the truth from Xiao Ding!
However, the two brothers always felt a little guilty whenever they talked about their grandfather in front of Xiao Yan.
"Yes, Xiao Yan, there aren't many people in this world who can get Grandpa into trouble!"
Xiao Li chimed in at this moment.
He and his older brother shared the same feelings when talking about their grandfather in front of Xiao Yan.
Hearing his elder brothers say this, Xiao Yan finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.
However, Xiao Yan then frowned.
"Was it because the Hun Clan posed a threat to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace that Supreme Elder Lin urgently summoned Grandpa back?"
This is Xiao Yan's imagination.
However, in his understanding, this was indeed the best explanation.
After all, he had already learned some secrets from the Saint Hun Qing, and knew that the current situation of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace was also somewhat "unfavorable"...
Given this, and considering his grandfather's considerable strength, it is indeed reasonable for him to be summoned back to deal with the threat from the Hun Clan!
Seeing that their younger brother "understood," the two brothers exchanged a silent glance, then nodded simultaneously and said, "That's right, exactly!"
"It seems that it is indeed necessary to make another trip to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace..."
This further strengthened Xiao Yan's resolve to visit the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace again.
"Dad, Sister Zi Yan went back home a while ago. I miss her. When will she come back?"
As for Zi Yan's whereabouts, it was Xiao Xiao who revealed it.
Zi Yan in this life is different from her previous life.
She became the Dragon Emperor at a young age, so naturally she had to be responsible for her people and couldn't stay outside forever.
At the same time, the fact that Zhukun was released so early naturally gave the father and daughter more time to spend together.
Today, the father-daughter bond between Zi Yan and Zhukun is no less than that between ordinary families.
In addition, given Zhukun's doting nature towards his daughter, Zi Yan had long since forgiven herself for her irresponsible father who had "abandoned" her for thousands of years.
Therefore, although the Ancient Void Dragon Clan has their own father watching over them, nothing bad will happen.
But Zi Yan has actually learned to care about her father.
So, it's okay for her to occasionally run out and have some fun.
But if she doesn't go back for a long time, she feels sorry for her father!
Having finally escaped the constraints of the Ancient Emperor's Cave, she now has to look after the Ancient Void Dragon Clan for her—what's the difference between this and being "imprisoned"?
Therefore, after playing outside for a while, Zi Yan went back home.
Of course, Zi Yan had already made up her mind.
After returning home, she'll symbolically spend time with her father and handle some affairs of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan before going out to play again.
By repeating this process, she can manage both aspects!
This was Zi Yan's idea.
However, Xiao Yan's focus at this moment was no longer on Zi Yan's whereabouts...
In his view, since Zi Yan was strong enough, not only as Dragon-Phoenix but also as Dragon Emperor, and had a father who was no weaker than the Hun Tiandi, he didn't need to worry about her safety.
Xiao Yan is truly concerned about now is the changes that have occurred in his own daughter!
Xiao Xiao is almost nine years old now.
Because of her exceptionally high innate abilities, having been born with the strength of Dou Zong, although she has already begun cultivating, she is not in a hurry to improve her realm. Instead, she focuses on mastering her current strength.
Xiao Xiao is very talented. Although she hasn't been cultivating for very long, she has already mastered about 80% of her own strength.
I think in another year or two, I'll be able to fully master my own abilities!
At the same time, the little girl also grew into a graceful young lady.
Anyone with eyes can see that when Xiao Xiao grows up, she will definitely be a stunning Human Form.
However, none of these things matter to Xiao Yan right now!
What Xiao Yan cares about most right now is how Xiao Xiao addressed him just now!
"Xiao Xiao, what did you just call me?"
After an unknown amount of time, Xiao Yan asked in a somewhat incredulous tone.
To be honest, for Xiao Yan at this moment, even the arrival of the Hun Tiandi might not be as important as the sudden change in his precious daughter!
