Chapter 1009, The Little Demon’s Father

Translator: Silavin

 

‘Little Demon’, just from this title alone, one could see how terrifying Little Ling’er was in the eyes of those fortunate enough to have met her.

 

Among everyone present, apart from Ying Xinghui and Nie Shengrui, the others probably were not qualified to know of Little Ling’er’s status and identity.

 

However, being able to make the Sacred Master Candidates of two top-tier Sacred Lands so apprehensive, even fearful, even if they did not know Little Ling’er’s identity, they knew she was someone who absolutely could not be offended!

 

At this moment, however, Little Ling’er was like an ordinary little girl who had not seen her Father for too long, clinging to Qin Yichen and refusing to come down. That innocent appearance made Ying Xinghui and Nie Shengrui both think they had mistaken her for someone else.

 

Was that really the Little Demon they knew!?

 

After a long while, Qin Yichen finally suppressed that joyful expression, holding Little Ling’er’s hand as his gaze turned towards Nie Shengrui and Ying Xinghui.

 

Little Ling’er’s gaze also followed the direction Qin Yichen was looking. Immediately, the hearts of the experts in this Spirit Crystal Area all jumped, hastily averting their eyes, not daring to meet her gaze.

 

Even Nie Shengrui and Ying Xinghui were so terrified, they naturally avoided her as much as possible.

 

Opposite Qin Yichen, when Nie Shengrui and Ying Xinghui saw the Little Demon’s eyes cast towards them, their bodies both trembled violently.

 

They never imagined that this Little Demon, whom even their own Sacred Master dreaded, was actually Qin Yichen’s Daughter!

 

This made them unable to suppress the urge to curse. If Qin Yichen had such an identity, why would he still appear in a declining Sacred Land like Brilliant Sky Sacred Land?!

 

“Qin… Sacred Master Candidate Qin…”

 

Seeing their gazes cast over, Nie Shengrui only felt his scalp go numb, his eyelids twitching uncontrollably as he said with extreme reluctance, “Today’s matter was all due to me being too rash. Consider those twenty thousand drops of Spirit Liquids as compensation for my presumptuousness. From now on, our Startling Cloud Sacred Land will never mention this matter again. I hope Sacred Master Candidate Qin will be magnanimous.”

 

Seeing Nie Shengrui’s lowered posture, experts from all sides could not help clicking their tongues secretly. Who did not know of Nie Shengrui’s overbearingness? Just moments ago, he had been on the verge of taking action here. No one had expected that even he would be forced to lower his head, not even daring to mention the matter of those twenty thousand drops of Spirit Liquids anymore.

 

While the crowd was surprised, Nie Shengrui was deeply depressed inside. Although he was furious beyond measure, he had no choice at present. This Little Demon before him was absolutely not someone he could afford to offend.

 

After speaking, Nie Shengrui bowed to Qin Yichen and directly turned to leave, looking as if something terrifying was chasing him from behind.

 

Soon, the crowd’s astonished gazes shifted from Nie Shengrui’s disappearing direction to Ying Xinghui.

 

They still clearly remembered that Ying Xinghui owed Qin Yichen twenty thousand drops of Spirit Liquids…

 

“Sacred Master Candidate Qin, previously I was blind. I hope you, as the greater person, won’t hold it against me.” Ying Xinghui gritted his teeth and also took out a card, respectfully offering it over. “There are twenty-five thousand drops of Spirit Liquids in here. I hope Sacred Master Candidate Qin will graciously accept it…”

 

Twenty-five thousand drops of Spirit Liquids… this was probably all of Ying Xinghui’s possessions!

 

Under numerous strange gazes, Ying Xinghui’s heart was bleeding, but what choice did he have!?

 

Who knew that the possessor of the Phoenix Martial Soul was actually the Little Demon’s Aunt, and that Qin Yichen, whom he wanted to suppress, was even this Little Demon’s actual Father!

 

Thinking back now, he had truly been blinded by lust and sought his own death!

 

Compared to this enormous sum of Spirit Liquid, not offending the Little Demon was the best outcome.

 

After all, this Spirit Liquid was his own, not drawn from the Sacred Land’s resources. Moreover, once word spread that he had offended the Little Demon, probably even before those Sacred Master Candidates could fan the flames, the Sacred Master would abandon him to preserve Ethereal Spirit Sacred Land.

 

[This guy really concealed himself well. No wonder when his woman is exposed to possess the Phoenix Martial Soul, he shows not the slightest bit of worry.] Seeing the two lofty Sacred Masters lower their heads, Lin Fengying could not help sighing inwardly, also feeling fortunate that his relationship with Qin Yichen was relatively good.

 

“This is not right…” Beside him, Xuan Mingge’s brows were tightly locked, as if pondering some vexing matter.

 

“Not right? What’s not right? Brother Qin’s identity isn’t something you or I can imagine.” Lin Fengying shook his head with a wry smile.

 

“That little girl called Feng Qianxue ‘Auntie’ and called Brother Qin ‘Daddy’…” Xuan Mingge’s brows furrowed tightly as he muttered to himself, “In that case, this little girl wasn’t born from Feng Qianxue, which means Brother Qin, aside from Feng Qianxue, has another woman who even bore him a child!”

 

With Xuan Mingge’s low murmur, the crowd around him immediately fell into silence.

 

The possessor of the Phoenix Martial Soul. This was someone all the top-tier Sacred Lands wanted to recruit!

 

Yet, she seemed to have been fed some love potion by Qin Yichen, never leaving his side.

 

What was even more terrifying was that after this little girl appeared, they finally realised that Qin Yichen did not just Feng Qianxue, he was even involved with another woman, and the child was already this big!

 

“Beast!”

 

“Having Feng Qianxue as a beauty, yet still not satisfied! How does this make us single dogs feel?!”

 

“How exactly did he capture such a woman’s heart? Looking at her appearance, she seems to have known about this little girl long ago!”

 

“Heavens, open your eyes and take away this monster!”

 

In an instant, countless people lamented inwardly, pairs of eyes carrying aggrieved, resentful expressions staring deadly at the figure holding Little Ling’er’s hand with one hand while embracing Feng Qianxue with the other.

 

Although in this world where the strong were revered, having three Wives and four Concubines was normal as long as one had strength, Qin Yichen’s strength was merely at the Late Stage Martial Emperor Realm!

 

Yet with this level of strength, he already had Feng Qianxue and even had a Daughter with such an identity… this simply felt absurd!

 

“*Ahem…* Little Ling’er, come back to the residence with me first.”

 

After accepting the card containing Spirit Liquid from Ying Xinghui, Qin Yichen seemed to sense the resentful gazes around him. He coughed dryly and, holding Little Ling’er’s hand, strode outwards.

 

Little Ling’er, who was known as the Little Demon, was obedient to the extreme, following Qin Yichen docilely while leaning dependently against his palm.

 

Even the two small beasts following Little Ling’er jumped onto Qin Yichen’s body, continuously nuzzling his neck with their heads.

 

As these two small beasts made intimate contact, Qin Yichen’s expression suddenly changed, and his footsteps abruptly quickened.

 

He sensed that because of these two beasts’ intimacy, the little creature that had been hidden in his chest and sleeping for quite some time seemed to show signs of awakening.

 

Moreover, a faint sense of dissatisfaction was emanating from it!

 

“That is Little Ling’er’s Father?”

 

As Qin Yichen and the others’ figures disappeared, a figure materialised in the Spirit Crystal Area. He gazed in the direction where Qin Yichen and the others had vanished, murmuring softly to himself.

 

The space around this figure seemed to possess some mysterious distortion. He stood there, yet it was as if no one had discovered his existence.
