423: Chapter 423 I Can't See

At the edge of the Forbidden Abyss, erosion qi surged.

High above, the atmosphere was frozen in a stalemate.

The standoff between the three parties was broken by several childish cries.

Three small figures rushed out from the dense forest and dashed straight toward the three Old Ancestors.

"Old Ancestor!"

"Old Ancestor!"

"Old Ancestor!"

Two more figures simultaneously dashed toward the twelve-year-old girl in the moon-white dress.

"Young Miss!"

"Laner!"

Xuan Ji, Yin Lan, and Fei Yan suddenly turned their heads, their pupils constricting, faces full of bewilderment. Yue Xinlan also froze instantly, her little face filled with astonishment.

The three little lolis threw themselves into the arms of their respective Old Ancestors like swallows returning to the woods.

Jin Linger threw herself into Xuan Ji's arms, tears shimmering in her purple hair and slit pupils. You Ruo collided straight into Yin Lan's arms, her little tiger ears trembling non-stop. Hua Lian gently hugged Fei Yan's waist, the little flower in her pink hair trembling slightly, her voice soft.

On Yue Xinlan's side, she was directly flanked by two figures from front and back.

Shi Yunyu grabbed her from the front and pulled her into her arms, her plump and full body trembling slightly, the radiance of motherhood almost overflowing, tears welling up in her eyes, her voice choked with sobs:

"...It is Young Miss's aura... It cannot be wrong... Young Miss... It has been so many years... Young Miss, you are still alive! I have seen you again, Young Miss!"

Almost simultaneously, Yue Xinxi hugged Yue Xinlan tightly from behind, her voice trembling so much it was almost incoherent:

"Laner?! Finally found you... Big Sister has finally found you!"

The scene was strange yet extremely heartwarming.

Two beautiful women with mature figures and distinct temperaments were simultaneously hugging a twelve-year-old girl. Shi Yunyu hugged her extremely tightly from the front, Yue Xinlan's little head buried directly into her full chest, almost completely unable to see anything, only able to make muffled sounds.

Yue Xinxi wrapped her arms around her waist from behind, her little face pressed against her younger sister's back, her shoulders trembling slightly.

Yue Xinlan's voice came out muffled from Shi Yunyu's chest, carrying a hint of helplessness:

"Yunyu... Big Sister?! Yunyu, let go a little, I cannot see... Also... You..."

Ling Hao stopped in his tracks from afar, watching the strange scene of hugging before him, his mouth twitching uncontrollably as he muttered to himself:

"So... Yunyu's Young Miss is Supreme Baiyan, and Supreme Baiyan is Xinxi's younger sister? This relationship... is truly a chaotic mess."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yunyu reluctantly loosened her arms slightly, though she was still unwilling to let go completely, only letting Yue Xinlan's little head barely peek out.

Yue Xinlan was finally able to breathe, her cheeks slightly flushed, her gaze falling on Shi Yunyu.

After finally breaking free, Yue Xinlan had once again seen her own "Big Sister"...

Looking at the two's excited appearance, Yue Xinlan did not know what to say for a moment.

On the other side, the three Old Ancestors also began to gradually understand the situation.

Xuan Ji held Jin Linger, her slit pupils contracting violently:

"You... How did you all come back?! Did I not tell you to escape the Demon Forest and leave this place far behind?!"

Her voice was cold and stern, but it could not hide the flash of panic in her eyes. The seeds she had managed to send away with such difficulty, how did they come back?!

"Mo Shuang!"

Xuan Ji looked at the black-skirted woman who had followed over,

"You tell me..."

Before Mo Shuang could speak, Jin Linger spoke first. She pursed her lips and pointed at Ling Hao, who was walking over slowly:

"We... While escaping, we encountered danger, and then we encountered the Human Race."

Yin Lan let out a low growl, her tiger ears instantly perking up, filled with Killing Intent: "Human Race! It is the Human Race again!"

Her gaze falling on the hope of her race, Yin Lan suddenly froze, as if she had noticed something.

With a reach of her hand, You Ruo was lifted directly in front of her.

Yin Lan reached out to wipe away a bit of sugar residue from the corner of her mouth, asking in a deep voice: "What are you eating?"

Looking at the thing in the Old Ancestor's hand, You Ruo shrank her neck, her little tiger teeth gently biting her lower lip, not daring to speak.

Beside her, Hua Lian spoke in a low voice, her voice soft:

"It was given by that good-looking male..."

Yin Lan glared at You Ruo, "What... You actually dared to eat something given by the Human Race!"

She turned her head, her gaze like a knife, staring at Ling Hao, and said sharply: "Did I not say that the Human Race is not to be trusted?!"

Xuan Ji's slit pupils moved away from Ling Hao and fell on the three little ones, saying in a deep voice: "Did those Humans force you to come back?"

Jin Linger shook her head, then nodded, hesitated for a while, and said softly: "They... They said they could help you Old Ancestors escape. So... so we..."

"So you just believed them?" Xuan Ji's voice was cold and stern, her purple hair moving without wind, "Do you know that you could die!"

The three little ones trembled, it was the first time the Old Ancestor had been so fierce with them.

Hua Lian suddenly mustered up the courage to say:

"He... has no malice on him. I can feel it."

The three Old Ancestors' gazes instantly fell on Hua Lian.

Fei Yan was thoughtful, "Little Hua Lian seems to have a talent for Heart Saint Communication, perceiving the good and evil of others."

"But we cannot just rely on this to directly determine the result! The Human Race is too cunning!" Yin Lan retorted.

Fei Yan's gaze fell on Ling Hao, and she sighed softly. "But this is the best outcome; if he really had malice, our three races..."

For a moment, the three Old Ancestors were silent. Their gazes involuntarily turned toward Ling Hao.

And Liu Ruyan, her gaze had been completely captivated by Ling Hao's figure.

She stared at Ling Hao, who was walking over slowly, her eyes astonishingly bright, her cheeks quickly flushing red, her right hand subconsciously touching her cheek, murmuring to herself: "So handsome... So perfect..."

That infatuated appearance was as if she had lost her soul.

Ji Xuanming stood beside her, his face livid, his voice kept extremely low, trembling as he said: "What time is it now, and you are still acting infatuated! He is the enemy!"

He was half angry and half fearful. That aura of death, of being suppressed by Ling Hao in public and forced to kneel, he would never forget in this lifetime.

But Liu Ruyan turned a deaf ear, still staring straight at Ling Hao, her eyes filled with undisguised infatuation, even her breathing becoming a bit disordered.

Ji Xuanming clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white, but he ultimately dared not make any move. He knew very well that even when he held the pivot of the Protective Sect Array, he was defeated before Ling Hao. In the current situation, even if he tried to run, he would probably be dragged back! The gap in strength was too great!

Ling Hao arrived nearby, withdrew his gaze from the heartwarming yet strange scene of recognition, and shook his head.

Having reunited after a long time, he really could not interrupt, so he turned his gaze toward the three little lolis.

But he discovered that the three "guardians" were staring at him with eyes full of "hostility".

Hmm, it was not good to go over for the time being.

As for the woman in red not far away, it was exactly the one he had encountered in White Rock Giant City.

And that Ji Xuanming, who had left the White Rock Holy Land early...

Strange, how did these two get together?
