Throughout the day, Longyi stayed in his study and pondered. Long Zhan's abnormal behavior made him instinctively feel a sense of crisis. Moreover, this time, he dramatically encountered his grandfather who had disappeared for more than twenty years in the Heaven Forbidden Prison. This disturbed his state of mind even more.
"Father, what are you doing? Why don't you accompany Niur to play? " At this time, the door of the study was pushed open and Niur's jade-like little face appeared at the doorway.
Longyi woke up with a start and looked outside the window. He didn't know when, but it was already dusk. There was only a circle of fiery red sunset on the horizon. Unknowingly, he had been in a daze for a whole day.
"Niur, come over and let father hug you." Longyi stretched out his big hand towards Niur and Niur rushed into his bosom.
"Niur, where is big sister?" Longyi habitually pinched Niur's chubby cheeks and asked.
"Big sister is also in a daze like father. She is ignoring Niur." Niur pouted and said.
Longyi was dumbfounded. That she-T. Rex was also in a daze? Didn't she crazily practice whenever she had free time?
"Big sister said this morning that she wanted to take me back to the Illusory Magic Forest. She said that this place doesn't belong to us." Niur's next words made Longyi startled again. Everything was fine, why did Liuxu want to go back? Could it be that she was not used to this place?
Thinking of this, Longyi picked up Niur and rushed out of the study. After looking around, Longyi found Liuxu in a remote corner of the big garden of the Ximen Residence. She was supporting her fragrant cheeks and looking at the beautiful sunset in a daze. Under the contrast of that fiery red sunset, she was incomparably beautiful.
As it turned out, this she-T. Rex also had such a ladylike side. Longyi who was far away looked at her in a daze for a long time. Then, carrying Niur in his arms, he walked over.
"Today, you are in the mood to watch the sunset." Long Yi said and sat beside Liuxu. As for Niur, she slipped into a cluster of flowers and wandered around blindly.
Liuxu however didn't turn her head as if she didn't hear anything. She was still looking at the gradually sinking sunset. Her sparkling eyes reflected the fiery red light.
Boiling Longyi rubbed his nose. This little female dragon actually ignored him. How embarrassing.
"I think it's time for me to return to the Illusory Forest. Your human world is too impetuous. I can't cultivate in peace," Liu Xu suddenly said to Longyi.
"So sudden? It won't be long before we receive news from Dragon Island. "Longyi said.
"If there's news, use the bracelet I gave you to summon me," Liu Xu said.
Seeing that she had already made up her mind, Longyi did not force her. He only looked at her for half a day before suddenly saying, "Liuxu. Don't you think you've become a lot gentler? "
"Then, do you want me to be fiercer with you?" Liu Xu didn't refute. She just looked at Long Yi and said.
"Of course not, I'm not a masochist, but … I just found out that you look very beautiful when you smile." Longyi chuckled.
A hint of redness flashed across Liuxu's pretty face, but it quickly disappeared. However, it did not escape Longyi's eyes. He was stunned for a moment, and his heart slightly rippled.
It had been a long time since they first met in the Illusory Forest. It had already been a long time. He didn't know how to define the relationship between him and Liuxu. At first, it was a relationship of making use of each other. But at this moment, it had unknowingly changed. Through Niur, the two of them seemed to have already surpassed the relationship of friends. However, it was still too early to say that they were in love with each other. It was just that the subtle feeling between a man and a woman had more or less settled between the two of them.
Just at this time. A woman's scream came from the other side of the big garden, followed by a burst of noise and blood-curdling screams. Longyi and Liuxu looked at each other, then they flew towards that side with lightning speed.
When they got closer. Longyi found Niur standing in the middle angrily. Around her, there were a dozen servants lying on the ground, crying in pain. Not far away, a Beautiful Woman with a pale complexion was pulling a little girl who was also as delicate as jade.
"Father, they bullied me." Seeing Longyi, Niur walked over with a wronged expression. This little girl had the talent of complaining first. Looking at this scene, it was clear who was bullying who.
Long Yi picked up Niur. He turned to look at the Beautiful Woman and said faintly: "My little girl has offended sister-in-law, please forgive her."
Liu-shi's bulging chest heaved up and down a few times, then she calmed down and said in a gentle tone: "It doesn't matter. I didn't discipline her well. Fortunately, she didn't scare my niece."
The corner of Longyi's mouth hooked into a sneer. He was too lazy to continue being hypocritical with this woman. He turned to look at the timid Little Shuxian beside Liu-shi, and his eyes flashed with a touch of warmth. In his big brother Ximen Tian's family, the only one he had feelings for was this little niece.
"Father, I want to play with this big sister." Niur, who was in his arms, twisted her chubby little body and said. Although this little girl had lived for hundreds of years, whether it was her human form or her mind, she was no different from a three or four year old child. Naturally, she was already six years old.
This was not a good thing.
Hearing this, Little Shuxian also looked at Liu-shi with longing. Looking at her timid appearance, Longyi was unable to connect her with the lively and cute little niece of two years ago. She seemed to be very afraid of Liu-shi, and her character also became quiet and introverted. This was not a good thing.
"Sister-in-law, you don't mind letting these two little girls play together, right?" Long Yi said, but his eyes had a trace of coldness.
Liu-shi's heart couldn't help but tremble, and a chill emerged from her bones. She forced a smile and said she didn't mind, then left Little Shuxian in a hurry.
"Uncle." Seeing Liu-shi had gone far away, Little Shuxian's eyes lit up. Although she hadn't seen Longyi for two years, she still didn't forget that uncle who liked to hug her and smile was as warm as sunshine.
Longyi squatted down and picked up Little Shuxian who ran over. With one hand holding a little girl, he became a nanny.
"Shuxian, did you miss uncle?" Longyi kissed Little Shuxian's pink cheeks and asked with a smile.
Shuxian nodded her head vigorously, and her expression suddenly became radiant. It was completely different from her timid appearance just now.
"Father, I also want." Niur pouted her mouth and protested in dissatisfaction.
… …
Liu Xu, who was not far away, watched Longyi and the two little girls playing happily on the grass. She couldn't help but laugh lightly. This was really a warm scene. Sometimes, she really couldn't understand what kind of person Longyi was. When he was cold, he was bloodthirsty and cruel, but when he was gentle, he could make people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze. But at this time, he was more like a child who hadn't grown up. He was really a contradictory person.
Just as she was thinking, Longyi got up and walked over. The two little girls' giggles filled the entire garden, and the setting sun seemed to become dazzling.
"You have a talent to be a nanny." Liu Xu said with a faint smile.
"Thank you for the compliment, but about leaving, shouldn't you reconsider? This is the first time I've seen Niur so happy." Longyi said as he looked at Liu Xu.
"Your sister-in-law seems to be very unwilling to let her daughter play with Niur." Liu Xu, however, didn't answer his question.
"I have my own ways to deal with this. Don't you think that my niece is closer to me than her parents?" Longyi laughed, but that laugh seemed a little sinister under the fiery red setting sun.
"You have a killing intent." Liu Xu glanced at Longyi from the corner of her eyes.
"It shouldn't be a problem to kill two people who are worse than beasts." Long Yi said.
"That's your sister-in-law." Liu Xu said indifferently.
"Even if it's the Heavenly Emperor, I won't let her go." Longyi sneered.
Liu Xu smiled and became silent.
"Aren't you going to ask why?" Longyi asked as he retracted his killing intent.
"Why should I ask? This is your family's matter. What does it have to do with me?" Liu Xu replied indifferently. Her tone was a little disappointed.
"Is this also the reason why you want to leave?" Longyi asked.
"Maybe. I'm just an outsider." Liu Xu turned her face. The setting sun had completely sunk into the horizon.
"What if I say … I've always treated you as my family?" Longyi looked at Liu Xu's black hair that was swaying in the wind. His big hand suddenly grabbed her slightly cold little hand.
Liu Xu was slightly startled. Her little hand struggled for a while before she quietly let it stay in Longyi's warm palm. Her heart couldn't help but beat violently. Perhaps she needed a shoulder that she could safely rely on …
The two of them sat down, shoulder to shoulder. They were close, but they also maintained a subtle distance. However, it was obvious that there was something more than before.
Longyi also couldn't figure out what the relationship between him and Liu Xu was. Perhaps it was more admiration than admiration. He didn't think about it carefully. However, as long as he grabbed onto her, he wouldn't let go.
"There's a trace of dark energy hidden in Little Shuxian's sea of consciousness. If I'm not wrong, someone must have tampered with it. Even a vicious tiger wouldn't eat its cubs. For a woman who would even push her own daughter into a pit of fire to achieve her goals, do you think she deserves to die? " Longyi looked at Shuxian who was playing around with Niur. His black eyes were filled with darkness. Shuxian had the blood of his Ximen Clan flowing in her body. If anyone wanted to do anything to her, they would have to ask his fist first. Even if it was her biological mother, it wouldn't do.
"You think it was done by her mother? How is that possible?" Liu Xu frowned. She couldn't understand. Back then, her mother didn't hesitate to risk her life to protect her. She believed that maternal love was the greatest thing in the world and shouldn't be blasphemed.
"The human world is dirtier than you think. Sometimes, meaningless beliefs are above everything," Longyi replied indifferently.
