As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Xi Xi stared blankly, watching her father wield a kitchen knife, fighting fiercely against those thugs, but he was knocked down in an instant.

He was even pierced by a long blade, blood spraying across the room.

Xi Xi froze in place as her mother desperately shielded her, but the thugs forcefully dragged Xi Xi away, impatiently slashing at her mother with a swing of their knife.

Blood splattered like a fountain, splashing onto Xi Xi’s face.

Xi Xi’s entire body quivered violently, a surge of uncontrollable rage and sorrow bursting forth from her chest in an instant.

Between her brows, the Prison Lotus Divine Pattern emerged.

Blazing black flames erupted around Xi Xi.

The thug who gripped her with the blood-stained long blade suddenly felt his hand scorching, and then Xi Xi slapped him hard, sending his head flying sideways.

Xi Xi floated in the air, her eyes trembling and boiling as if harboring a pool of ink-black water.

“You… dared to harm my father and mother?!”

“How could you dare?!”

“Xi Xi’s beloved father and mother… how could you dare?!”

Xi Xi’s infantile frame, barely a year old, hovered in the air, tears streaming endlessly down her face, only to be twisted and evaporated by the searing black flames.

“Kill them all, kill everyone…”

A faint, icy voice echoed through Xi Xi’s mind.

Completely void of emotion, unbearably cold.

It was as if a soul from a past life had awakened from the depths of Jiuyou, descending with a trace of supreme will.

The Prison Lotus Flames blazed furiously, yet they couldn’t suppress the burgeoning power about to erupt.

Gurgle, gurgle—

At some unknown moment, beneath Xi Xi’s feet, a pitch-black pool like ink appeared, its waters churning and rolling.

Streams of liquid twisted upward from the pool, forming eerie patterns that curled onto Xi Xi’s face.

The Prison Lotus Divine Pattern between her brows pulsated ceaselessly…

And then, with a faint “sizzle” sound… as if extinguished, it dimmed entirely and turned cold and desolate.

The flames lost all traces of heat.

Xi Xi crossed her arms over her chest, casting a cold gaze across the room filled with corpses.

Upon seeing the lifeless bodies of her father and mother, she closed her eyes.

When she reopened them, they were as frigid as an eternal glacier.

With her arms still crossed, the pool beneath her feet writhed and carried her out of the house, drifting through the air.

Clang—

The charcoal brazier toppled onto the ground, sparks scattered outward and engulfed the dilapidated house in flames, which surged rapidly amidst the endless falling snow, blazing fiercely.

Amidst the burning inferno.

Xi Xi, arms still crossed, stood like a proud and cold sovereign.

She floated outward.

Grandma Lei fled in terror, trudging through the snow.

Xi Xi shot her a glance, flicked her fingers, and a Fire Tip Spear entwined with black flames streaked out, instantly piercing Grandma Lei…

Xi Xi took a step forward, and in the next moment appeared at a certain spot within the city.

The Fire Tip Spear, coiled with black flames like a venomous snake, lashed out, and with a sharp piercing sound, took another life.

Blood, endless streams of blood, poured forth.

Xi Xi lifted her tender yet cold face.

She carved a bloody path toward the City Lord’s Mansion.

When all was slain.

Xi Xi sprawled her legs wide, sitting amidst the mountain of corpses and sea of blood in the City Lord’s Mansion, her lips quivering.

“Xi Xi, no longer has father or mother…”

Her icy, frigid eyes held nothing but infinite darkness.

The eerie, twisting patterns covering her body writhed and expanded bit by bit, threatening to engulf her tiny frame entirely.

Suddenly.

From the abyss of darkness, a streak of white light slowly radiated forth.

A white chess piece floated and glided out of Xi Xi’s body.

Buzz, buzz, buzz—

It seemed as though countless starlight particles scattered tenderly like dust.

Xi Xi stared blankly.

The darkness in her pupils reflected a glimmer of light.

“If you must kill, father will kill with you.”

“Don’t let yourself suffer too much.”

“Father has always been here.”

The white chess piece hummed softly…

A gentle voice, like a breeze, drifted in.

Gradually…

The white chess piece transformed into a familiar figure.

Xi Xi sat amidst the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, tilting her head upward in a daze.

Li Che’s radiant figure bathed in glowing white light knelt down, smiling warmly.

He extended his hand.

Gently ruffled Xi Xi’s hair.
