Nine Gods Continent, Heart Moon Palace.

"How's the investigation going?" A woman's voice came from the main hall.

She was wearing a red chiffon dress that was embroidered with a golden thread nine tail fox pattern. Her calm words contained an endless amount of charm. Her long hair spread all over the ground. Her graceful and enchanting figure emitted a charm that could steal one's soul. Even just a glance at her back would cause one's blood to spurt and be unable to extricate themselves.

Outside the main hall, a masked man wrapped in a black robe knelt respectfully and said, "Palace Master, forgive me for my incompetence. I couldn't find the source of that powerful fluctuation."

"Trash!" The charming voice snorted coldly.

The masked man trembled and broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly added, "Palace Master, I sensed a trace of Absolute Dust Sword Qi!"

The woman in red paused. The surrounding air seemed to stagnate, making it difficult to breathe.

This woman's cultivation was so terrifying!

"Absolute Dust Sword Qi?

Could it be that Bai Chen is still alive?

Or, could it be his successor?

No matter what, we can't let him live. Find him as soon as possible … and kill him! "The woman in red said coldly.

"Yes!" The masked man turned and left.

"Wait." The woman's seductive voice sounded again. "If you don't do your job well, go to the Heart Punishment Pavilion and receive 500 beatings."

The masked man almost cried. 500 beatings?

He almost lost half of his life …

"Yes …"

"Brother Xiao!

Brother Xiao! "A pleasant voice came from outside the door. Bai Chen hurriedly got up and opened the closed door.

A petite figure that was like a swallow nimbly pounced into Bai Chen's embrace.

Bai Chen was caught off guard. He didn't even have time to defend himself before he was pushed to the ground by this fragrant figure.

He opened his eyes wide.

A delicate and pretty young girl was kneeling on top of Bai Chen, who had a dazed expression on his face. She wore a dark green dress, and her long black hair was tied up with a simple green hair band. Her rosy little mouth was slightly curled up, and her lively and bright eyes were instantly filled with tears.

"Big Brother Qingxiao, what took you so long? Why didn't you come to see Xiao 'er?

Sob sob sob sob sob … "The young girl sat on Bai Chen's body and cried out in grievance. She wiped her face with her jade-like hands, and her tears and snot were all over Bai Chen's body.

Looking at that beautiful and tender face, Bai Chen couldn't help but be stunned.

Wow!

A beauty!

This budding young girl was Yun Qingxiao's father. She was a pitiful child that he had picked up from the outside and adopted as his daughter. She was named Mo Hanxiao and grew up together with Yun Qingxiao.

Only in front of her would Yun Qingxiao, a ten-thousand-year-old iceberg, melt.

Seeing the girl's tears fall like a broken string of pearls, Bai Chen instantly panicked and clumsily reached out to wipe away the big teardrops on the girl's pretty face.

In his previous life, he was afraid of girls' tears, and it was still the same in this life.

"Don't cry … I …"

"Bad brother!

Stinky brother!

Wu wu wu wu … "

"Xiao 'er …"

"Hmph!

I'm not going to talk to you anymore. "

“.....”

After an unknown amount of time, the two of them maintained this position, one sitting and one lying down.

Bai Chen helplessly realized that women were really made of water. No matter how much she cried, it wasn't enough.

Bai Chen put on a stern face and pretended to be angry. "If you cry again, I'm not going to talk to you anymore!"

Mo Hanxiao was frightened and immediately stopped crying. Sparkling tears hung from the corners of her eyes as she murmured in a soft and soft voice, "I know I'm wrong ~"

Looking at the girl's careful and cute appearance, Bai Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud. He lightly slapped the girl's round and slender thigh and said in a bad mood,

"Silly girl, you're already 13 or 14 years old, yet you're still so shameless. Hurry up and get off your brother's body!"

Mo Hanxiao's pretty face turned red with a "shua" sound. Even her cute little ears were suffused with a layer of crimson.

She quickly got off Bai Chen's body. Her beautiful eyes were filled with the shyness of a young girl as she said angrily, "Brother Xiao is so naughty!"

"Girl, how have you been recently?"

Bai Chen's eyes were full of affection as he caressed Mo Hanxiao's little head and asked unconsciously. However, the figure of a mischievous girl appeared in his mind.

She … should have escaped. I hope she can live an ordinary life. Leave the revenge to me.

Mo Hanxiao looked up at Bai Chen's handsome and calm side profile. Although he was saying words of concern, his eyes clearly showed that he was absent-minded.

The little girl was instantly unhappy. She angrily stretched out her slender fingers and gently pinched a small piece of soft flesh on Bai Chen's waist. Then, she pinched it hard.

"Ow ~" Bai Chen screamed and curled up on the ground like a shrimp.

"Girl, you're so ruthless … Ouch ~"

Mo Hanxiao snorted and looked down at Bai Chen. She questioned, "Brother Xiao!

Hurry up and tell me the truth!

Did you find a sister-in-law outside these few months? Is that why you don't want Xiao'er anymore? "

The little girl felt wronged. So annoying!

So annoying!

Brother Xiao belongs to Xiao'er alone!

Bai Chen did not answer. He rubbed his waist and stood up. He walked around the little girl's petite body and sniffed around. Then, he touched his chin wretchedly.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. What a strong smell of jealousy …"

Mo Hanxiao covered her blushing face and ran away. Her fragrant figure disappeared at the entrance of the courtyard.

Bai Chen looked at her cute and naive appearance and could not help but laugh.

In the evening, Mo Hanxiao resentfully stepped into the courtyard again and punched him repeatedly.

Hmph!

Since when did Brother become so good at teasing others?

There must be someone he likes outside!

If Bai Chen knew what she was thinking, he would definitely cry out that he had been wronged!

Young Miss, I really don't have a wife!

I've been single for two lifetimes. Who would like me?

Then, the little girl pulled Bai Chen to sit in the room and poured out everything to Bai Chen.

She even ordered Bai Chen not to sleep. Bai Chen felt helpless about this.

She told him about how Butler Li's dog Huang Ergou stole meat to how there was an extra red fish in the small pond. It turned out that it was Uncle Wang's youngest son who threw it in. Also, his white clothes were too small to fit into, and Butler Li did not buy them for him.

.....

As she talked, Bai Chen did not fall asleep. The little girl talked for the whole night and fell asleep first.

Bai Chen held a warm and fragrant body in his arms. Waves of orchid and musk fragrance seeped into his heart. He lowered his head. The girl's little head was curled up in his arms. Her long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings. Her breathing was light. She was clearly asleep.

'Seriously … this whole thing is …'

Bai Chen got up and placed Mo Hanxiao's soft and delicate body on his bed. He gently tucked her in and quietly watched her sleeping face.

A strong desire to protect suddenly rose in his heart. He had never wanted to protect everything around him so much.

Girls like Mo Hanxiao, who were not very talented in the family, would become the best marriage tool between families after they grew up. They would live a miserable life.

Looking at the hazy morning outside the door, Bai Chen made up his mind and murmured, "Xiao'er, I will definitely protect you. Definitely!

Even in the future, now, or in the future. "

With that, he waved his sleeve and left the courtyard.

Since he was reborn, he should not leave any regrets.

What does the world have to do with me?

I'm very selfish. I only want to protect the people I care about.

Bai Chen's state of mind suddenly became clear. His breath surged, and his Divine Sense quietly rose. However, he did not notice.

Mo Hanxiao, who was supposed to be sleeping soundly, raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a beautiful and happy smile. She whispered sweetly,

"Brother Xiao, Xiao'er believes in you."
