24: Dragon Girl, Ai Li

Lin Yang turned his head and saw a petite, blonde little girl standing behind him at some unknown point.

The little girl was very cute, with two golden pigtails, picturesque eyebrows, and a delicate face as flawless as a porcelain doll.

What was most captivating were the little girl’s large eyes, bright and sparkling like two star gems, blinking with a lively, as if the stars were speaking.

This was a peerless, adorable loli, full of Spiritual Qi!

However, at this moment, the blonde little girl’s bright, Spiritual Qi-filled eyes were staring intently at the melon seeds in Lin Yang’s hand, and a trace of unseemly drool had escaped the corner of her moist lips.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Lin Yang’s scalp immediately tingled.

When did this little girl appear?

He hadn’t noticed her at all!

Even more surprising to him was that the blonde loli’s tiny feet were hovering in the air.

She could move in the air without any external assistance.

This was something only a Martial Grandmaster or stronger could achieve!

But even a Martial Grandmaster would generate subtle Spiritual Qi fluctuations when hovering.

Yet, there wasn't a single Spiritual Qi fluctuation from this blonde loli!

This meant... her Realm was even above a Martial Grandmaster!

Could she be a Martial Venerable!?

Lin Yang was stunned; what was the origin of this seemingly harmless blonde little girl?

“Daddy?”

Seeing Lin Yang in a daze, the little girl waved her tiny hand in front of him, then pouted her small mouth and, without waiting, took the melon seeds from Lin Yang’s hand and stuffed them all into her small mouth.

“Munch, munch…”

After chewing, the little girl didn’t even spit out the melon seed shells, swallowing them directly.

Soon, the melon seeds in Lin Yang’s hand were all gone, and then the little girl looked up, gazing at Lin Yang with a pitiful expression: “Daddy, hungry, is there more?”

Lin Yang looked at the little girl in front of him with a baffled expression, then silently took out all the melon seeds, peanuts, red dates, and other snacks he had received from the previous lottery.

“Thank you, Daddy!”

Seeing so many delicious things, the little girl’s large eyes immediately lit up, and then, without any regard for her image, she waved both her small hands and began to gobble them down.

After the little girl had eaten her fill, Lin Yang cautiously probed, “Um… Senior, why do you call me Daddy?”

Lin Yang was truly bewildered; a suspected Martial Venerable calling him Daddy, wasn’t this shortening his lifespan?

“Whoever provides milk is a mother, and whoever provides food is a father.”

The little girl blinked her large eyes, tilting her small head with an innocent expression.

“…”

Lin Yang was speechless; she would call him Daddy just for a bite to eat?

He had only done such a shameful thing in his college dorms in his previous life!

“Daddy, my back is a bit itchy, can you scratch it for me?”

After eating and drinking her fill, the little girl stood on her tiptoes, turned, and presented her back to Lin Yang.

“Itchy? You didn’t get an allergic reaction to something you just ate, did you? Hey! You can scratch through the clothes, don’t take them off!!!”

Lin Yang was startled, and just as he was wondering if the little girl was allergic to some ingredient in the peanuts, melon seeds, or other foods, he suddenly saw a sight that made his Bloodline surge.

However, before he could close his eyes, a mysterious Spiritual Talisman pasted on the girl’s back immediately caught his attention.

“This is… the Ancestor’s Seal Talisman!?”

Lin Yang examined the Spiritual Talisman for a moment, and his entire body froze as if struck by lightning.

He couldn't believe that the mysterious Spiritual Talisman on the little girl’s back was actually the Ancestor’s Seal Talisman, which he had only seen in the Sect’s ancient texts.

According to ancient records, the invincible Ancestor who founded the Saint Essence Sect perished because he expended a vast amount of his own essence blood to condense a Seal Talisman capable of isolating natural disasters and tribulations.

And the reason the Ancestor was willing to sacrifice himself to condense that Seal Talisman was to preserve the Inverted Demon Dragon Egg!

But now, the legendary Ancestor’s Seal Talisman had appeared on the back of this blonde little girl.

Lin Yang’s breathing hitched, his pupils gradually widened, and a shocking possibility came to mind.

Could it be…

This little girl was that Inverted Demon Dragon Egg?!

Lin Yang was too shocked to speak.

The legendary Inverted Demon Dragon Egg was said to contain the Daughter of the Dragon God!

After a long while, Lin Yang finally calmed the turbulent waves in his heart and once again glanced at the blonde little girl beside him.

No wonder this little girl showed no signs of age, her Heart-Nature was no different from a child’s, yet her strength was so terrifying.

It turned out that she was indeed the Daughter of the Dragon God born from the Inverted Demon Dragon Egg!

“Daddy, you have a scent I like on you. Can I always follow you from now on?”

Just as Lin Yang was hesitating whether to remove the Seal Talisman from the little Dragon Girl’s back, she suddenly tilted her head, looking at him with anticipation.

A scent she liked?

Lin Yang was first taken aback, then quickly realized.

Could it be… Luck!?

Yes, the Daughter of the Dragon God was inherently born with the Luck of Heaven and Earth.

Such a being naturally having an affinity for Luck holders was quite normal.

Lin Yang nodded slightly, and several thoughts quickly flashed through his mind:

“This is the Daughter of the Dragon God, who might become the new Dragon God in the future!”

“If I can coax her while she’s young, then in the future, in Lingxiao Heaven… won’t I be able to strut around?”

“Heheheh~”

With this thought, Lin Yang immediately removed the Seal Talisman from the little Dragon Girl’s back.

However, he also kept a backup plan; after removing the Seal Talisman, he didn’t throw it away but hid it in his sleeve.

If the little Dragon Girl had been faking her innocence earlier, he would not hesitate to re-apply the Seal Talisman to her.

“Thank you, Daddy~”

Fortunately, the little Dragon Girl was not the type of person Lin Yang had imagined; after the Seal was removed, there were no abnormal actions.

This made Lin Yang breathe a sigh of relief, then he smiled and said, “By the way, we’ve been chatting for a while, but I don’t know your name yet?”

“Name?”

The little Dragon Girl’s eyes dimmed upon hearing this, and she shook her small head, saying, “In my memory, my biological parents seemed to have abandoned me and didn’t give me a name.”

Seeing the little Dragon Girl’s eyes gradually redden, Lin Yang’s heart also tightened. He sighed softly, bent down, reached out, and rubbed the little Dragon Girl’s head, smiling faintly: “It’s alright. Since you’ve acknowledged me as Daddy, let me, your stepfather, give you a name.”

“Hmm~ You’re so cute and beautiful, how about I call you… Aili from now on!”

Lin Yang thought for a moment and said.

“Aili? Thank you, Daddy, I like this name!”

Hearing the name Lin Yang gave her, the gloom on the little Dragon Girl’s face vanished, replaced by a happy and joyful smile.
