“She is not with me because I am afraid danger will befall her, nor am I able to go look for her; after all, there are too many enemies aiming for grandpa’s head…” Heavenly sighs heavily.
“Humph, I think it’s just Grandpapa being selfish. If I were your daughter, I would rather be by your side no matter the danger. If my parents are danger, I too will want to be with them to face the foe, and if they leave me behind then Ling Yan will be very angry!” Raising her little head, Di Ling Yan puffs up her cheeks to make a very unhappy pout. Sadly, the attempt only made her all the more adorable and cuter….
There’s good reasoning for the baby to think this way. She had been cheated away by her grandmother before, and although it was for her own safety, she would’ve preferred to face the danger together than to survive in this world all alone. She doesn’t want to survive while everyone dies.
Heavenly’s finger trembled after hearing those words, causing him to squeeze tighter: “Is that so?”
Before he’s still confused on whether he’s done the right thing or not by pushing his family away, but now he’s starting to doubt his own decision. After all, did he ever ask for their opinion first? The answer would be no, he did not.
Suddenly, the guy bursts out laughing, the cheery and happy kind and not the depressed and heavy one he’s been showing to those around. “I’ve lived for so many years, and in the end, I had to have a child to remind me what’s important…” Brushing the child’s hair with a faint smile, “Ling Yan, grandpapa is really too selfish here, I never asked for their view on the matter and made the decision on their behalf. Now… even if I want to bring them over, I can’t…. I can’t see them again. They are probably looking all over the world for me…”
“My wife Ning’er is so gentle, and my daughter Yan Yan is also a heavy and emotional person. If they know that I am facing off against so many people then they will surely come to me to resist them… But what did I do? I cowardly told myself its for their sake and hid away.”
Now Ning’er and Yan Yan must be thinking the same way.
Even in the face of life and death, they will want to spend time with me.
The seal he set that year not only sealed the other domains, it also forbade himself from returning to the human world after the establishment of this domain. Otherwise, why else would he be so careful about letting his foes know about his family? He’s afraid they would target them in the human world where he himself couldn’t go.
“Can’t Grandpapa just go see your daughter?” Di Ling Yan turned looks up and bit her finger.
“It’s not that I can’t, but to leave means I will have to lift the seal. The people from the other domains will be able to leave as well, by then it will cause endless strife across all the worlds. I don’t know if I can resist them on my own by then if they combine their forces.”
He’s regained part of his strength, but without the full power at his wield, confronting everyone at once would be impossible.
Di Ling Yan hung her head at that information, If that’s the case… then there’s really no other way.
“Ling Yan, I was able to understand a lot of things thanks to you today, and if I could leave the domain on my own somehow without lifting the seal then I will definitely go meet my wife and daughter.”
“Grandpapa, I believe you’ll see them again, I’m sure of it!” Di Ling Yan raises her fists to wave it around to show it’s possible, which brought another wave of laughter to the man’s heart.
