Father and daughter finally meet

Even after the group of Flame Lizardman escorted Xiao Lin and Zi Yan to a deeper Underground Magma World like stars around the moon, Zi Yan was still in a daze.

Of course, the main purpose of this Flame Lizardman was to deliver the gift to Zi Yan; Xiao Lin was just a side trip...

To be fair, because of Zi Yan, Xiao Lin was treated like a VIP.

Furthermore, since Xiao Lin was with Zi Yan, the remaining Flame Lizardman no longer held a grudge against him for injuring or killing many of the Flame Lizardman earlier.

Not only that, the two Flame Lizardman leaders even imagined that Xiao Lin had gone to see their guardian earlier to confirm the situation.

After the situation was confirmed, that's why we brought the Guardian's daughter to see her father this time!

Surprisingly, by sheer chance, the two Flame Lizardman actually guessed correctly!

Xiao Lin met with Zhukun first for this reason, and only brought Zi Yan over after negotiating the terms with Zhukun.

After imagining this, the group of Flame Lizardman even apologized to Xiao Lin before he led Zi Yan deeper into the Underground Magma World.

As for Xiao Lin, he simply waved his hand and generously forgave them!

Now, Zi Yan can easily command these Flame Lizardman.

In other words, after just one trip to this Underground Magma World, without even seeing her own father, Zi Yan has already subdued a magical beast race comparable to the Two Sects of Central Plains!

However, despite this, Zi Yan, who was in a daze, had no interest in paying attention to the matter at all.

What she cared about more was clearly what Xiao Lin had just said: that she was the daughter of the Guardian, Flame Lizardman addressed as "Lord Guardian"!

Moreover, she now knew that this group of Flame Lizardman was escorting the two of them to see the guardian they addressed as their father...

That's why Zi Yan's feelings were quite complicated at this moment!

Even her usual lively and active personality disappeared; instead, she remained silent the entire way.

For Zi Yan, who has been alone since childhood and doesn't even know what her Main Body is, the sudden appearance of a father leaves her unsure of how to face him.

When she was little, she did fantasize about having parents.

In the Magical Beast Forest, she saw that the newborn monsters all had their own parents protecting them.

But what about her? Not only was she not protected by her parents, but when she was bullied by other magical beasts, she could only hide away and lick her wounds alone!

Later, after meeting Su Qian and being taken back to the Jia Nan Academy, she was finally freed from the days of being bullied every day.

Gradually, after making Jia Nan Academy her own home, Zi Yan also gradually forgot about her parents.

But deep down, she had always harbored this desire!

But now that she was actually facing all of this, she suddenly felt a little panicked.

She didn't know how to get along with her father.

Should I act like a normal person and act spoiled with my father?

It seems like she's finding this very difficult!

Come to think of it, who would have the nerve to act like a child to a father who suddenly appears?

In comparison, when facing Su Qian and Xiao Lin, Zi Yan is more likely to act like a child!

Therefore, at this moment, Zi Yan's feelings were both complicated and uneasy.

At the same time, it also seemed to carry a hint of anticipation?

"Awoo~"

"Don't think too much about it, little girl. Just let things take their course. Over the years, your father didn't abandon you on purpose. He was just trapped at the bottom of this Magma World and couldn't leave."

As a father, I believe his love for you is no less than any parent's love for their child!

Just as Zi Yan was feeling troubled, Xiao Lin suddenly rubbed her head and then spoke up to comfort her.

This is not the Zi Yan that Xiao Lin wanted to see.

In his eyes, Zi Yan should be free and unrestrained.

But there are some things she will have to face sooner or later.

Instead of putting everything off until the future, it's better to solve things now!

Zi Yan still can't bring herself to say the word "father" yet.

That's why Zi Yan used "he" to refer to him.

However, since Zi Yan took the initiative to ask him about her father, it clearly means that she also wants to learn about her father as soon as possible, and also to adapt to all of this.

Not sensing any rejection in Zi Yan's tone, Xiao Lin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Since you want to know, little girl, I'll tell you. Your father... he..."

Subsequently, as they continued to delve deeper into the Underground Magma World, Xiao Lin also shared some of what he knew about Zhukun with Zi Yan.

Zi Yan, unlike her usual carefree self, listened attentively.

Clearly, she also wanted to learn some information about her so-called "father" in advance.

Xiao Lin spoke slowly, while Zi Yan listened very carefully.

During this time, the little girl would occasionally ask a question or two in return.

Xiao Lin would answer questions in detail about what he knew, but for things he didn't know, Zi Yan would have to ask Zhukun herself later.

And so, time slowly passed.

Finally, at some point, they stopped.

"Lady Zi Yan, the God's Cemetery, which your father guarded, is just ahead. We dare not enter it and can only escort you this far."

At this moment, one of the Flame Lizardman who had been escorting Xiao Lin and Zi Yan here spoke up.

As you can see, not only this Flame Lizardman, but all the other Flame Lizardman have also become more respectful.

That was out of reverence for Zhukun within this Dou Di Space!

"I understand, you can go ahead."

Zi Yan waved her hand dismissively and said.

At this moment, Zi Yan, who was becoming increasingly uneasy, naturally had no time to focus on the group of underlings she had just subdued.

"Yes, Lady Zi Yan!"

Seeing Zi Yan wave, the Flame Lizardman bowed respectfully to her and then left one by one.

At this point, only Xiao Lin and Zi Yan remained outside the Dou Di Space.

"Come on, little girl, you'll have to face this eventually!"

Seeing that Zi Yan was still somewhat uneasy, Xiao Lin spoke up.

"Phew, I know!"

After taking a deep breath, Zi Yan's expression gradually hardened.

"Buzz~"

Immediately, the two stepped inside together.

On the other side, almost as soon as Xiao Lin and Zi Yan entered this Dou Di Space, Zhukun already sensed it.

As the aura connected to his bloodline drew ever closer, Zhukun's anxiety was even greater than Zi Yan's!

Of course, when Zhukun sensed Zi Yan's presence, Zi Yan had entered this space, naturally sensed Zhukun in return.

Warcraft itself places great importance on bloodlines; direct descendants, as long as they are not too far apart, can even sense each other's presence!

Just like Zi Yan and Zhukun right now.

And so, after entering this Dou Di Space, the father and daughter are now gazing at each other from afar!

This also means that after thousands of years, the father and daughter have finally met for the first time!

Xiao Lin, who was standing to the side, was the only witness to this incident.

But he simply stood there quietly with a smile, without saying a word.
