Dragon Emperor Essence Blood
"Go, Zi Yan."
Seeing the father and daughter staring at each other across the distance, neither making a move, Xiao Lin helplessly stepped forward, patted Zi Yan on the shoulder, and said...
"Old Man Lin, I, I..."
At this moment, due to nervousness, Zi Yan's voice even became stammering.
"Don't worry, that's your father! Now, go over and have a good talk with him."
That was all Xiao Lin could say at that moment.
"Huh? Old Man Lin, you... you're not coming with me?"
Zi Yan, having gleaned this meaning from Xiao Lin's words, became even more uneasy!
He had calmed down before entering the Dou Di Space, but now he was panicking again.
"Heh, you two are father and daughter, while I'm just an outsider. It wouldn't be appropriate for me to go there."
Xiao Lin had that much self-awareness.
Just imagine, when Zhukun and Zi Yan were expressing their father-daughter bond, Zi Yan kept hiding behind Xiao Lin. How would Zhukun, as her father, feel about that?
Moreover, with Xiao Lin, an outsider, present, there are some things that father and daughter cannot say directly.
"Ah, but, however..."
"Zi Yan, there's no 'but.' I've said it before, let nature take its course. If you don't want to acknowledge him as your father, we can simply never see him again."
Xiao Lin said in a slightly joking tone.
Xiao Lin said that simply to help Zi Yan relax and not put too much pressure on herself.
"Okay, I understand..."
After a long silence, Zi Yan nodded.
Immediately afterward, under Xiao Lin's watchful gaze, Zi Yan walked towards the huge plaza in front of the Ancient Emperor's Cave, turning back every few steps!
There, Zhukun was already waiting with an excited expression.
Finally, after Zi Yan's figure disappeared from sight, Xiao Lin shook his head helplessly.
"Zi Yan, that girl, usually seems carefree, but I never expected her to show this side of herself when it comes to her father!"
Hmm~, but speaking of which, that old dragon of Zhukun should be the same, right? Hahaha!
While muttering to himself, Xiao Lin suddenly burst into laughter.
After taking one last look at this Dou Di Space, Xiao Lin turned and left.
Now that Zhukun and Zi Yan, father and daughter, have reunited after thousands of years, it is no longer appropriate for him to stay here.
After all, they should be given some time alone.
Even if Xiao Lin had many things to discuss with Zhukun, he clearly wouldn't be in a hurry to do so.
Otherwise, wouldn't that make him seem incredibly tactless?
And so, Xiao Lin temporarily returned to his residence at the Jia Nan Academy.
Because Zi Yan had mostly stayed with Xiao Lin before, no one noticed her sudden disappearance.
Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Lin, thinking that it was about time, came to the Dou Di Space for the third time.
When Xiao Lin arrived at the huge plaza in front of the Ancient Emperor's Cave, he found Zhukun staring intently at the giant water cannon in the air in front of him.
Inside the water cannon, Zi Yan had already returned to her Main Body and was fast asleep with her eyes closed.
"You've come."
Zhukun said without even turning his head.
"This is..."
Xiao Lin looked at the scene before him with some confusion.
He had originally thought he would see Zhukun and Zi Yan, father and daughter, pouring their hearts out to each other, but he never expected to see this scene!
But Xiao Lin believed that Zhukun would not harm Zi Yan.
However, as Xiao Lin asked, a hint of self-reproach appeared in Zhukun's eyes.
"Because of my negligence at the time, Zi Yan has never received any inheritance from the Ancient Void Dragon Clan since she was a child. I am just making up for it for her now."
Although there's still a part of the inheritance that can only be completed by returning to Ancient Dragon Island, at least I can still do something for her now.
There was a hint of suppressed emotion in Zhukun's tone.
In fact, after spending a month together, the father and daughter, while not exactly close, were at least no longer as awkward as when they first met.
Of course, the one who was mainly embarrassed was Zi Yan.
Zhukun, as the father, mostly shamelessly moved closer to Zi Yan.
Zi Yan, who is most sensitive to such matters, was naturally able to perceive Zhukun's true feelings for her.
So, gradually, Zi Yan also began to accept the existence of her father.
Until recently, Zhukun proposed to help Zi Yan obtain a portion of the inheritance of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, and Zi Yan did not object to this.
This kind of inheritance, of course, cannot be accomplished in a day or two.
Therefore, Xiao Lin saw this scene after he arrived.
"That's good. At least Zi Yan will have more power to protect herself before Senior Zhukun leaves!"
After listening to Zhukun's account, Xiao Lin nodded and said...
Then, Xiao Lin and Zhukun stood there quietly for a long time.
"Heh, I really didn't expect you to dare to come in in your Main Body this time. What, aren't you afraid I'll attack you?"
Suddenly, Zhukun laughed, then looked at Xiao Lin meaningfully and asked.
That's right, Xiao Lin standing next to Zhukun at this moment is the Main Body!
"Ah, the first time I didn't dare to come in casually because I was worried that before I could explain, you would capture me, Senior Zhukun. Now I've brought Zi Yan in."
You must have learned a lot from her over the past month, right?
"Given Senior Zhukun's character, and considering my relationship with Zi Yan, I believe you wouldn't dare to lay a hand on me now, would you?"
Although it was a rhetorical question, Xiao Lin was still very confident in his judgment.
Of course, this was mainly because Xiao Lin had read the Original Work and knew that Zhukun's character was reliable!
"Of course, I would never lay a hand on my benefactor! In any case, Lin Xiao, I thank you for taking care of Zi Yan!"
This time, Zhukun's tone was unusually solemn.
His gratitude was also heartfelt.
"I like this little girl Zi Yan very much, and I will take care of her, not because of you, Senior Zhukun."
Xiao Lin answered truthfully at this moment.
"I know! But it's a fact that everything you've done has been kind to Zi Yan, and as her father, I should repay you! Do you remember when you first came here, I said I could help you improve your strength?"
Zhukun spoke these words with great seriousness!
"No, Senior Zhukun, actually..."
"Stop! Let's keep things separate! I know what you're trying to say! I'm not one to like owing favors! If you can help me escape this predicament, I will naturally help you deal with the Hun Clan unconditionally."
But Zi Yan's matter has nothing to do with this; I will repay you in another way!
Xiao Lin wanted to say something about Zhukun's explanation, but was quickly interrupted.
As the Old Dragon Emperor of the Ancient Void Dragon Clan, Zhukun also had his own pride!
Someone helped his daughter, so he naturally wanted to repay them.
As he himself said, one thing at a time!
As Zhukun finished speaking, without waiting for Xiao Lin to say anything more, he stretched out his right hand and made a slash across his left palm.
The next second, a drop of blood radiating a purple glow appeared from Zhukun's left palm.
From this drop of blood, Xiao Lin sensed an extremely terrifying power!
A faint longing even stirred within him.
And this is precisely the Dragon Emperor Essence Blood belonging to Zhukun!
