Chen Fan and Ji Yanqing looked at each other and sighed, but there was nothing they could do.
No one could stop Bai Lili's arrival. The only thing they could do was to help Li Xiang take care of the new Polar Night.
After the battle at the Great Wall of Disaster, Li Xiang had pushed down the Great Wall of Disaster in a fit of rage. Then, he had added fuel to the fire when the mutants invaded the seven continents. However, he had never truly given up on the New Polar Night and the promise that he had made to many people.
He would do his best to help the human camp usher in a true dawn, but the prerequisite was that they did not hinder him or harm the people he loved.
Even though Li Xiang rarely got involved in the affairs of the new Polar Night, it was still the most important spark that Li Xiang had to protect the human camp. If the new Polar Night disbanded or became a chess piece after he left for Galaxy, then all his efforts would go to waste.
Whether it was as a good brother or as a member of the old Polar Night, Chen Fan would never let such a thing happen.
In the past, he did not have enough power. Now, he and his wife had a say in the military and gradually gained authority. All of this could be done.
"I still think that you shouldn't take Xin Yi with you." Ji Yanqing looked at him and wanted to continue persuading him. "You can hand Xin Yi to us or send her to Rose Garden. With Lord Night Shadow watching over her, even a Level-9 player would have to consider the consequences. Furthermore, the blood of the Bai family flows in your veins. Ming Xu is also the only daughter of King Dong Ling and the First Lady. Xin Yi is an important descendant of these two families. King White and King Dong Ling would definitely not watch her get hurt. "
"Anyone who dares to threaten her life would have to think of the consequences."
From Ji Yanqing's point of view, it was normal for her to say these words.
Li Xiang also believed that if he handed Xin Yi over to Chen Fan and his wife, they would definitely treat her like how they treated Xuan Xuan and treat her as their own.
However, he knew better than anyone else that high-rank players did not care much about bloodlines. Even if Bai Lili, the White King, and Lancelot were close, they would still turn against each other for benefits, let alone a mere descendant.
This was too risky.
If Xin Yi really attracted the attention of some level 9 players, Chen Fan, his wife, and Night Shadow might not be able to protect him.
If he left her with them, it would also bring danger to them.
After thinking this through, Li Xiang shook his head firmly and declined their good intentions.
The three of them chatted casually. It was rare for them to be able to gather together, so Li Xiang and Ming Xu insisted that they stay for dinner. The five of them made barbecue and game snacks in the small house in the forest. Chen Xuanxuan, who was still young but had a big appetite, enjoyed the meal. Her talent in machinery had already been revealed. Unlike her parents, Chen Xuanxuan had a talent in machinery that shocked even Li Xiang.
If she continued to learn, she could easily become a Mechanic. Based on Wessex's standards, she would at least be at Professor Maria's level. If she could become a player, she would be like Li Xiang, a Mechanic at the level of a player in the seven continents. Her value would be much higher than that of a normal low-rank player.
In peaceful times, such a Mechanic would be at the top of every numbered city. In times of war, the mechanical weapons and equipment that they created would be the core items of a large number of normal soldiers. They would be even more useful than normal players.
Chen Xuanxuan held a roasted drumstick and chewed it in big mouthfuls. She did not know that her godfather had already started to plan the path for her.
After eating and drinking to their fill, Ji Yanqing arranged for Chen Xuanxuan to sleep in the small house in the forest. The four of them then talked about the bits and pieces of the past.
"Someone once told me that when a person starts to reminisce about the past, it means that he is growing old. When a group of people reminisce about the past, it means that the era is growing old." Li Xiang lit the bonfire and chuckled. He looked at Ming Xu, who was leaning on his shoulder, and said calmly, "Perhaps not long from now, our era will truly be over. The new generation will rise and push this world in an even more unpredictable direction."
"That will probably take a very long time." Chen Fan laughed and used the branch in his hand to stir the bonfire. "The lifespan of a player is almost five hundred years. Even if we include the exhaustion from years of battle, there are many who can live up to three hundred years old. As long as one enters this sequence, the era will sometimes age faster than us."
"Who knows?" Li Xiang nodded. Chen Fan was right. The current order of the seven continents was still controlled by the same group of people from a hundred years ago.
"There are many famous masters in the mechanical world in the new Polar night's Crimson Heavy Industry. You can send Xuanxuan there to learn from them. With her talent and conditions, there is no need for her to study before high school. It will be a waste of time." Li Xiang said to the two of them. "Tian Cao and Xiao 'ai's daughter is also studying there. I heard that Yu Bai and Wei Lan's son is also three years old?"
"Yeah, I would have forgotten if you didn't mention it. These guys are secretly getting married. They don't even have a proper wedding. If I didn't meet Yu Bai when I went to that numbered city for business, he wouldn't have told us!" Chen Fan grinned, then his expression gradually faded. He sighed and said, "Sigh, after all, these are troubled times. Once you have a family, you will have worries. If too many people know about it, it will spread to the ears of your enemies. In the past, I thought that becoming a player would allow you to transcend. It turns out that you just fell into a big hole."
"It's good that you understand. Look at Bai Lili and the others. Even if they have reached Level 9, above Level 9 is still not considered transcendence. If you want to transcend beyond that, you will have to be a real god, the God of Creation." Li Xiang did not think about this. Only the existence that could pull him, a soul from a different time and space, into this world was qualified to be called a true transcendence.
Such an existence's life level was much higher than his. They might have already ignored time and space and life and death. If they could reach such a level, what problem could they not solve?
He still had a long way to go before reaching Level 9. Thinking about this was a waste of time.
.....
The next day, Chen Fan and Ji Yanqing had originally planned to say goodbye and return to the Southern Army. However, they happened to run into Ming Xu's sudden labor.
Ji Yanqing, who had experience, naturally became the person who delivered the labor. The two men were anxious. Chen Fan had also experienced it once, but he was still nervous and worried.
At that time, Ji Yanqing's strength was not considered strong. The labor still took more than ten hours, causing the entire military hospital to be in a state of constant anxiety.
Ming Xu, on the other hand, was a Level 8 player who was close to Level 9. Her labor would definitely be more difficult.
The two women were in the small house, while the two men were outside. They even had a little loli with them. They were all running around in circles.
Li Xiang felt that he had never been so nervous and worried in his life. Even when he participated in the player assessment, he was not afraid of the heavy burden on his shoulders.
Chen Fan could only keep comforting his close friend. He tried his best to distract him with other things.
From morning to night, Ming Xu's cries of pain were only heard a few times. On the other hand, Ji Yanqing's worried, encouraging, and comforting voice never stopped. This made Li Xiang even more anxious. He wanted to rush in and help.
Unfortunately, he would only be a hindrance if he went in. He could only chat with Chen Fan outside.
"Dad, I'm hungry!" Chen Xuanxuan protested again. Chen Fan glared fiercely at this little girl who did not know how to read the situation. He wanted to call someone to send her to the manor to play, but he was stopped by Li Xiang.
"Just in time. When it's over, Ming Xu should be hungry. I'll bring Xuanxuan to get something to eat." Li Xiang let out a long breath. Without waiting for Chen Fan's reply, he carried Chen Xuanxuan and ran toward the small lake outside the forest.
Seeing the fearless Li Xiang so scared, Chen Fan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Arriving at the small lake, Li Xiang forced himself to calm down. He jumped into the lake and began to fish. Chen Xuanxuan, on the other hand, happily went to pick up wild vegetables and tease the livestock raised here.
After half an hour, Li Xiang threw a large pile of fish onto the shore. Just as he was about to get some lamb and beef, a strong sense of palpitation suddenly descended from the sky.
A terrifying pressure filled the sky. It was not aimed at him, nor was it aimed at the cold land. Instead, it spread indiscriminately.
It was as if something had descended on the seven continents.
At the same time, he also received an important message from the communication device. The level 9 players had broken through the passage under the lead of the White King and returned to the seven continents. They were now rushing to their respective territories.
Li Xiang's heart thumped. With a large pile of food, he carried Chen Xuanxuan and immediately ran back to the small house in the forest.
As soon as he landed, he saw Chen Fan's smiling face. "Congratulations, congratulations. From today onwards, you are also a father."
"Born?" Li Xiang was pleasantly surprised. He handed Chen Xuanxuan back to Chen Fan. He didn't care about the pile of food. He threw it all on the ground and rushed into the small house in the forest.
There was a baby's low sobbing sound in the room. Under the weak candlelight, Ji Yanqing skillfully held her and hummed softly. Seeing Li Xiang rushing in, she instantly pulled down her face. "Lower your voice, lower your voice. The big one just fell asleep."
"Whoa, whoa, whoa." Li Xiang took a deep breath and lowered his breath to the extreme. Only then did he find that Ming Xu, who was sweating all over, was lying on the bed with a pale face. She was curled up in the quilt and sleeping soundly.
She was the same as before. No matter how painful it was, she would not cry out. She had been silently enduring it.
Li Xiang sat beside her and gently held Ming Xu's slightly cold hand. However, he was almost sent flying by a terrifying force.
He staggered and supported himself on the table. His face was flushed red, but it gradually faded. Only then did he notice that Ji Yanqing's mouth was bleeding. Her breath was also chaotic.
"Ming Xu's breath suddenly increased. I was almost seriously injured … Fortunately, I had just reached Level-3." Ji Xianqing was a Guardian, so she instinctively opened her Guardian Shield. Even so, she was still almost heavily injured by that strand of Qi, and was still in a state of shock. She had forgotten to remind Li Xiang just now, and seeing that he was fine, she was relieved.
"She has reached Level-9." Li Xiang took a deep breath and silently recited an incantation. He then cast a spell to heal Ji Yanqing.
His attainments in mysticism and magic were not weak. As for healing magic, he had specially consulted LuLu during the Great Wall of Calamity and had quite a bit of experience. He took the opportunity to check Ji Xianqing's body and found that she was still pregnant!
Moreover, Ming Xu's breath had blasted into the baby's body!
He hesitated for a moment, but still told her everything.
Ji Yanqing was very nervous. She repeatedly confirmed with Li Xiang that she and the baby were fine. Only then did she let out a long sigh of relief.
"This boy … I was pregnant a long time ago, but I never succeeded in giving birth. It's probably related to my continuous increase in strength. It's too difficult for high-level players to have descendants." Ji Yanqing sighed. "As my strength increased, he absorbed more and more nutrients. His little body was about to explode, but he still wasn't born. This time, we planned to visit some high-level players to see if there was a way."
"Perhaps … what happened just now was a good thing. I felt that the little guy successfully absorbed the breath that Ming Xu accidentally leaked. A Level-9 player's breath can definitely protect the little guy. You are only Level-3, so you shouldn't be able to break through this layer of defense. If nothing goes wrong, he will be born this month. "Li Xiang smiled.
It was just a wisp of breath that contained the supreme breath of the Mother Goddess. Although it was very little, almost negligible, it was still there. That little guy would probably be very troubled when he grew up.
However, this would also be a wonderful opportunity for cultivation. It all depended on whether he could grasp it.
Li Xiang decided not to tell Ji Yanqing about the eternal existence for now. It was useless and would only make her more worried. Anyway, it was fine as long as it didn't threaten his life.
"Do you want to hug Xinyi? To be honest, if I didn't see Ming Xu give birth with my own eyes, I really wouldn't believe that this is your daughter. "Ji Yanqing carefully handed over the baby in her arms.
Li Xiang was puzzled. He looked down and immediately understood the meaning of her words.
Li Xinyi, who was just a baby, had a pair of beautiful eyes. One was amber, the other sky blue. They were pure and transparent. Her skin was snow-white, and her hair was silvery white.
Silver hair and different pupils.
These were the characteristics of the purest bloodline of the Dong Ling family.
This meant that she had inherited Ming Xu's Dong Ling family bloodline, and it was also the purest kind.
Li Xiang curiously looked at his daughter and thought for a long time before he gradually understood.
He no longer had the human bloodline in him. Although he was a descendant of the Bai family, all of his bloodlines had already been fused with the breath of the Origin. Void, Machine, Disaster, and Human. These four types of Origin had fused together to form the supreme breath of the Origin. After the battle with Ming Xu, the breath of the Mother Goddess had completely disappeared, leaving only the purest Dong Ling family bloodline, which had been inherited by his daughter.
Li Xiang reached out his finger, and the baby hurriedly held it with her small hand. It was warm and gentle.
The moment his daughter held his finger, Li Xiang could feel the surging breath of the Origin within her body. A dark golden breath constructed her body, and the Dong Ling family bloodline was present on the outside, making her body shockingly strong.
"This little girl, is she a natural player?" Li Xiang was stunned. He felt that there were assassination tattoos, magic runes, and the Source of Faith on her body at the same time. He was shocked.
She clearly did not participate in the player assessment, so where did these player carriers come from? And there were three of them at once!
After telling Ji Yanqing, she immediately helped to check and soon sensed the Source of Faith in the little girl's body.
She was a guardian, so her perception of the Source of Faith would not be wrong. But she was still so young, so where did the Source of Faith come from?
