After weighing things carefully, the Dragon-Pattern Peak Master decided to side with Qin Sheng.
Waking the Half-Saint ancestor for no reason might displease him, but Qin Sheng could suppress even the Third-Generation Source Heavenly Master after his corpse had come back to life. If the ancestor blamed anyone, the Saint Son would be there to take the heat.
He could worry about what came later when it came.
But if he refused the Saint Son now and incurred his displeasure, there might be no later for him.
The Dragon-Pattern Peak Master believed Qin Sheng would show no mercy to people like them, who had failed to comprehend the Progenitor Will.
"Saint Son, when do you plan to wake the ancestor?" the Dragon-Pattern Peak Master asked.
"Now." Qin Sheng wasted no time.
The two left the Eastern Immortal Sleeping Palace. Qin Sheng glanced at Xiao Nannan, who was skipping about, and told her:
"Nannan, play here for a while. If you need anything, go find Yao Xi."
"Okay!" Xiao Nannan nodded hard.
The Dragon-Pattern Peak Master's gaze settled on the little girl. Once they were some distance from Qin Sheng's cave residence, he said:
"Saint Son, this little girl is extraordinary. She's been at your side all this time, yet her appearance hasn't changed in the slightest over the years. She's drawn a great deal of attention, and many factions have recognized her as the Divine Infant of legend."
You shouldn't call her a little girl. You should kneel, kowtow, and hail her as Ancestor.
"Some even say she may be a Humanoid Immortal Medicine. Saint Son, beware of anyone who might set their sights on this child."
"Nannan is a person, not immortal medicine. I can say that for certain. But she does count as a Divine Infant." Qin Sheng
