895 Even Demonic Beasts Dare To Risk Their Lives, Xiaoyu’er Returns (2)

Half a day later, on a mountain peak hundreds of kilometers away from the dividing line between the two worlds…

Ji Lutian, Zhang Jiping, Zheng Chengan, and the other leaders of the grotto-heavens gathered together again.

“Everyone, you’ve already seen the situation. You were too optimistic before. Although we now have a buffer of thirty years, it’s not enough to change our situation,” Ji Lutian said solemnly. “My suggestion is that if we can make the human race without Grotto-Heaven realm experts in the next thirty years, the source of this war will naturally not exist. Only in this way can we resolve the fundamental problem.

“How can you be sure that after we sever our grotto-heavens, Heaven will no longer be hostile to the human race?” Zhang Jiping said. “If the demonic beasts are still hostile to the human race, what should we do?”

“At worst, it will be the same as now,” Ji Lutian said. “With my mystic technique, even without your grotto-heavens, your strength won’t be affected. Therefore, the worst-case scenario is that we continue to fight the demonic beasts.”

Zhang Jiping frowned. “Although what you said makes sense, we don’t know what your mystic technique is.”

Ji Lutian said, “You’re not an outsider. I’ll tell you the mystic technique today.”

…

At a place in the former Great Xia, Zhou Shu raised his head and looked up into the distance.

Although he didn’t deliberately pay attention, he still noticed what had happened at the border of the two worlds.

Ao Guang could actually mobilize the will of Heaven. Moreover, he really dared to risk his life!

This was a little unexpected.

This way, it wouldn’t be possible to send workers to the Demon Realm to farm rewards.

“This loss is on you, Ao Guang!” Zhou Shu said.

Boom!

Before Zhou Shu could finish speaking, he suddenly heard a loud bang. Then a black shadow fell from the sky.

Zhou Shu was shocked and almost subconsciously wanted to attack.

But after he saw who the black shadow was, he immediately moved his arm to the side, and his attack landed on the side.

“Xiaoyu’er?”

The black shadow that fell from the sky was Xiaoyu’er, whom he hadn’t seen for a long time.

Before Xiaoyu’er went missing, she had grown up a lot. But now, she seemed to have become three to four years old again.

Her eyes were closed, but her breathing was steady and long. Zhou Shu heaved a sigh of relief.

Xiaoyu’er’s body was flicking with light slightly, and she seemed to be holding something in her small hand.

This is… a Divine Stone? Zhou Shu saw that Xiaoyu’er was holding a Divine Stone! Xiaoyu’er suddenly appeared with a Divine Stone in her hand. What’s going on?

Zhou Shu looked around warily. She’s unconscious now, so it’s impossible for her to have returned on her own. Then, who sent her back?

Where did this Divine Stone come from?

Zhou Shu recalled that Xiaoyu’er had been hunted down by the Tang family of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven and had been seriously injured. Shi Changsheng had said that Xiaoyu’er had gone to heal herself.

Now, she didn’t look like she was injured. Since she had already recovered, why was she still unconscious?

Zhou Shu walked to Xiaoyu’er’s side and called out softly, “Xiaoyu’er!”

Her eyelashes fluttered twice, but she didn’t wake up.

Zhou Shu frowned slightly. He reached out to grab her wrist and tentatively injected a wisp of spiritual essence.

When his spiritual essence touched her skin, it was as if it had hit a wall and bounced back.

He didn’t dare to use too much strength, afraid that he would hurt her. He could only continue to call out in a soft voice. “Xiaoyu’er, wake up.”

Her eyelids twitched as if she wanted to wake up. But after a long while, she still didn’t open her eyes.

Zhou Shu was helpless. He reached out and tried to take the Divine Stone from her hand to study it.

Just as his hand touched the Divine Stone, Xiaoyu’er’s eyes suddenly opened, and she shouted, “Don’t touch it. I got it for my father. If anyone dares to snatch it, I’ll beat them to death!”

Zhou Shu was stunned, and his heart warmed. “Xiaoyu’er, look carefully. Do you know who I am?”

The light in her eyes gradually condensed. She looked at Zhou Shu and cheered. “Daddy!”

She jumped into his arms.

Zhou Shu felt as if he had been hit by a raging bull. He drove his spiritual essence to stabilize himself. This daughter of his seemed to be stronger than before.

“Daddy, I missed you so much. I followed your aura for a long time before I found you.” Xiaoyu’er hugged Zhou Shu.

“Daddy, look. I even snatched this for you. Daddy, you’re a forger. This seems to be very important to forgers.”

Xiaoyu’er raised the Divine Stone in her hand, looking as though she was waiting for Zhou Shu to praise her.

“Xiaoyu’er, where have you been these days? Also, where did you snatch this Divine Stone?” He noticed that she had used the word ‘snatch’. She was clearly unconscious. How did she snatch it?

“I don’t know where I went. There were many big baddies and some good uncles in that place. I snatched this Divine Stone from a big baddie, but I couldn’t beat him. Fortunately, an uncle saved me and sent me back,” Xiaoyu’er said.

She only had the expressive ability of a three to four-year-old child, so she spoke a little unclearly.

Zhou Shu pondered and asked, “Have you never seen that place before?”

“No.” Xiaoyu’er shook her head.

“Do you remember what the uncle who sent you back looks like?” Zhou Shu asked.

“I remember,” Xiaoyu’er said. “He’s tall and thin. His face is long, and his hair is white.”

Zhou Shu rubbed his glabella. “Can you bring Daddy to the place where you snatched the Divine Stone?”

“I can’t go. I don’t know the way,” Xiaoyu’er said seriously.

“Oh right, I almost forgot.” She stuck out her tongue. With a flip of her hand, she took out something from her grotto-heaven and handed it to Zhou Shu with both hands. “The uncle who sent me back even gave me this and asked me to bring it to you, Daddy.”

“For me?” Zhou Shu was surprised. “He knows me?”

...

Xiaoyu’er shook her head in confusion. She was just a child. How could she understand such a complicated matter?

“Daddy, do you not want it?” She blinked her big eyes.

“Of course… I do. I definitely want it. It would be a waste not to take it.” Zhou Shu shook his head and reached out to take the thing that Xiaoyu’er was handing to him.
