But she had hardly spent any time with children, so it would still be a little difficult. She had to treat these two children well!

Besides, how could she put it? She still had a bit of a knot in her heart. After all, the two children were connected to that woman.

But it was all right. She believed she could completely untangle that knot in time.

After all, the children were, in the end, Lu Qing'an's children!

She would love everything Lu Qing'an cared about!

"Two beautiful, adorable princesses, Aunt Xue is here to see you! May I come in?" Xue Tianfei knocked on the door. Instead of pushing it open, she called inside with a smile.

Standing behind Xue Tianfei, Lu Qing'an and Xiao Qingyi exchanged a glance at the striking contrast in her tone.

Xiao Qingyi transmitted his voice. "I've always told you, this woman has plenty of flaws, but she genuinely cares about anything concerning you. She's a woman worth treating well."

Really, if it had been another man, given Xue Tianfei's temperament, she might well have killed the children.

But it was different with Lu Qing'an. She was ready to become the two children's stepmother!

And she treated them like this, too. It was simply astonishing.

This time, Lu Qing'an didn't snap back at Xiao Qingyi. Looking at Xue Tianfei, he began to have mixed feelings.

What Xue Tianfei had said earlier did make sense. Both his children were girls, and there were indeed some things he, as their father, couldn't get involved in.

A grown son should keep his distance from his mother, and a grown daughter from her father.

When it came to certain things, it really was somewhat necessary to have a woman help him raise the children.

But after his last relationship, he truly had no expectations of another one for the time being.

He didn't know how long it would take him to move on, either.

He could only wait and see.

"Aunt Xue, come in."

Lu Zixuan opened the door and looked at Xue Tianfei in surprise.

Whenever her mother came to see her, she would walk straight into her room, whether the door was open or closed.

Yet Xue Tianfei had actually knocked and waited for her permission. Lu Zixuan didn't know whether she was putting on an act for her father.

She could already tell that Xue Tianfei was especially fond of her father, so fond that she could hardly wait to take advantage of his heartbreak and make her way into his heart.

"What are you doing?" Xue Tianfei entered the room with her hands behind her back, but the moment she stepped inside, she froze.

So clean!

So tidy!!

The discomfort she'd been suppressing vanished in an instant.

Then she noticed something about Lu Zixuan that she hadn't noticed before.

Lu Zixuan's clothes and styling were perfectly symmetrical! They possessed an exquisite beauty!

This child was wonderful!

She made Xue Tianfei feel utterly comfortable!

"I'm learning about the Demon Domain. Minzi wrote me a handbook covering many things here," Lu Zixuan said.

"Haha, if there's anything you don't understand, you can ask Aunt Xue. I'm very familiar with the Demon Domain. Or if you want to go for a walk, you can come find me, and I'll take you out to have fun!"

"All right. Thank you, Aunt Xue."

"It's nothing, nothing. It's what Aunt Xue should do! Oh, right, your father asked me to pass a cultivation technique on to you so you could try cultivating it. Do you have time now?"

Lu Zixuan saw how gentle Xue Tianfei was. It wasn't just the expression on her face; even her gaze was as gentle as could be when she looked at her. Lu Zixuan was a little surprised.

It didn't seem like an act.

"I do."

"All right, then sit cross-legged on the bed. I'll transmit it directly to you."

"Okay."

Once Lu Zixuan had settled cross-legged, Xue Tianfei even asked whether she was ready. Only after confirming that she was did Xue Tianfei begin transmitting the technique.

A ball of white light shaped like a snowflake appeared above her finger.

Lu Zixuan stared at the snowflake-shaped light in front of Xue Tianfei's finger and was surprised to find that it was perfectly symmetrical!

It made her feel immensely comfortable!

"This..."

She had thought it would be like the first time Xiao Qingyi transmitted a technique to her: she would need to remind Xue Tianfei, or perhaps endure having something irregular transmitted into her mind for a little while.

She hadn't expected this!

And so, when she looked at Xue Tianfei, a curious light appeared in her eyes.

"All done. I've finished transmitting the technique. Try cultivating it first. If you run into any problems later, you can ask Aunt Xue, and I'll explain them to you patiently."

Lu Zixuan nodded.

Lu Qing'an watched the two interact so easily, a strange expression on his face.

Xue Tianfei seemed quite normal when interacting with a child.

He had seen Xue Tianfei fall out with someone after just a few words and immediately attack them, or even kill them, on plenty of occasions.

It was rare to see Xue Tianfei like this.

After receiving the technique, Lu Zixuan began trying to cultivate it.

Before long, she stopped.

"Father, cultivating this technique feels so much more comfortable than cultivating Grandpa Xiao's! There's nothing that feels wrong at all!" After stopping, Lu Zixuan quickly looked at Lu Qing'an and said with a smile.

Lu Qing'an stepped forward and once again gently placed a hand on Lu Zixuan's head. He circulated his cultivation to examine her and instantly confirmed that his eldest daughter was a perfect match for Xue Tianfei's technique!

"That's right. This technique is a perfect match for you. Cultivate it diligently from now on."

"Really? Then afterward, can I just use this technique to convert all the cultivation power I gained in the Immortal Ruins?" Lu Zixuan asked.

Lu Qing'an smiled and nodded. "If you can't convert it yourself, I'll help you. One hour will be enough."

"Really? Then when do we start?" Lu Zixuan took a deep breath. Since she had come to the Demon Domain and decided to live here for a long time without returning to the Immortal Ruins, she might as well convert all the cultivation power she had gained before into the power used here.

Having cultivation power that was completely out of place here made her feel somewhat uncomfortable, too.

It was like a circle with a small gap in it.

"We can start right away. The rest of you go out first." Lu Qing'an looked at Xue Tianfei and the others.

"Father, should I go out too?" Lu Miaomiao asked.

"Yes. Don't disturb your sister. Didn't you say you wanted some chilled watermelon?"

"Yay! Aunt Xue, let's go out!" Lu Miaomiao trotted over to Xue Tianfei and took her hand.

It was the first time anyone had held Xue Tianfei's hand. Her body trembled, but she suppressed her discomfort and nodded repeatedly.

She had to make the most of this rare chance to look after Lu Qing'an's children!

After all, of the two children, taking good care of Lu Miaomiao was the top priority!

Lu Miaomiao was still young and needed a stepmother even more!!

"All right, Miaomiao, let's go out."

Once no one was there to disturb him, Lu Qing'an withdrew one times' worth from the million times' cultivation stored in the system to speed up the demonization of his daughter's cultivation.

"System, withdraw one times' cultivation. This world should still be able to withstand it, right?"

[It can]

"Then withdraw one more times' worth."

He didn't dare withdraw too much. It would be bad if he accidentally caused this world to collapse.
