As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1538 - 410: LV6 Rank Guanyin Lotus Bullet, Underworld Assassination Weapon Against King Yan Watching You [Monthly Ticket Requested]
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
A low hum vibrated through the air——
Space began to distort and ripple, creating a faint, pulling sensation.
Following the evolution of the [Chess Saint] Dao Fruit to LV6, the teleportation capabilities of the Thunder Chess Piece had become increasingly extraordinary. Not only was it now capable of transporting multiple people simultaneously, but the transition through space had also become significantly more stable and comfortable.
In the past, the Thunder Chess Piece’s teleportation felt erratic, often inducing severe vertigo during high-speed travel.
However, the evolved Dao Fruit had refined this experience, smoothing out the transit and allowing it to bypass any oppressive external forces.
Even within the Divine Capital, no matter how formidable the city's sealing arrays were, they remained powerless against the teleportation of the Thunder Chess Piece.
The atmosphere rippled like the surface of a lake, mimicking the movement of a rising tide.
Suddenly, a Divine Aura surged and intertwined violently. The snowflakes falling like goose feathers were instantly pulverized into fine dust by the sheer force of the Divine Power.
The sound of splashing water echoed——
They appeared above the turbulent waters of the Grand Canal.
Li Che’s thick black hair whipped in the wind. A divine radiance radiated from his niwan, forming a protective cocoon around Xi Xi, Jin Taixui, Yun E, and Zhou Peng.
This barrier was designed to minimize the disorientation caused by the Flying Thunder Move.
During his previous journey north to the Divine Capital, Li Che had strategically placed numerous Thunder Chess Pieces along the Grand Canal. They had gone unused during the return trip, as he had traveled by bamboo raft with the boss and Gou.
Now that he was sending the children out for their experiential training, Li Che finally found a use for them.
After roughly three consecutive Flying Thunder Moves, the group had traversed the Lingnan Circuit and arrived within the borders of Guangling Dao.
Guangling Dao was a vast territory where the Dao of Alchemy flourished, serving as a cradle for many renowned Alchemy Masters.
While the children remained shielded by his divine aura, Li Che lightly tapped his toes against the air, guiding Xi Xi and the three others toward the banks of the Grand Canal.
The verdant mountains were buried under a heavy blanket of snow, and a profound silence gripped the world.
The only sounds to be heard were the soft rustle of falling snow and the relentless roar of the Grand Canal’s current.
Xi Xi continued to sob quietly, tears still glistening on her cheeks. She understood that this training journey meant a prolonged period away from her parents.
Although she had long yearned for this chance to prove her strength—often dreaming of herself as the invincible "Emperor Xi Xi" roaming the martial world—the reality was different.
When the moment finally arrived to step into the martial world alone and leave the protection of her parents, a deep sense of reluctance filled her heart.
"Once you are out in the world, you must learn to look after yourself."
"With Mom and Dad not there to protect you, if someone wrongs you and you have the power to retaliate, do so immediately. If you cannot... record it in your notebook and tell Dad when your training is over. Dad will take care of it for you."
"The most vital rule when traveling is to never let yourself suffer a grievance."
"If you truly find yourself in a situation you cannot handle, Dad is always here."
Li Che gently stroked Xi Xi’s hair.
Utilizing the Five-fingered Ji Zhang, he produced the Holy Hand Divine Sculpture of the Big Black Dog and presented it to Xi Xi.
"Wow!" Xi Xi’s eyes sparkled with excitement, her mood instantly brightening as she took the Holy Hand Divine Sculpture.
"Should you encounter something truly infuriating that you cannot solve on your own... simply pat the head of this big black dog sculpture three times."
"Pat it three times, and Dad will come to you."
Li Che spoke with a warm smile.
He knelt down to straighten Xi Xi’s garments, playfully pinching her round cheeks, which were still full of baby fat.
Xi Xi nodded vigorously, her sorrow largely replaced by a sense of security.
Li Che’s reassurance made her feel as though her father was constantly by her side, easing her heart.
Li Che then turned his gaze toward Jin Taixui, Yun E, and Zhou Peng: "All of you must take good care of yourselves as well."
His voice was filled with gentleness.
A wave of warmth washed over the three youths; Jin Taixui, in particular, felt his eyes grow misty.
He realized then what it felt like to be genuinely cared for.
The wind howled as snow swept across the landscape.
Li Che stood there with a smile, his golden lotus embroidered robe fluttering loudly in the gale, his black hair dancing against the void.
This image of him brought a sense of comfort to the four children.
"Go now."
Li Che gave a gentle wave of his hand, his voice soft.
Clutching the big black dog sculpture, Xi Xi began to walk into the swirling snow alongside Jin Taixui and the others, looking back every few steps.
Each time she turned, she saw her father standing amidst the white landscape, watching over her with a warm expression.
They traveled for an unknown distance until even the crashing waves of the Grand Canal faded into silence.
When Xi Xi turned back one last time, her father’s figure had finally vanished from sight.
Xi Xi bit her lip, her eyes reddening again, but she quickly balled her hands into fists.
Wiping her tears away with her sleeve, she declared, "Don't worry, Dad and Mom! Xi Xi will become incredibly strong—so strong that I can protect you both!"
Xi Xi stared into the hazy, snow-filled world.
Suddenly, she pivoted, her small foot kicking off the ground with explosive power.
The snow beneath her burst into a deep crater as her body launched forward like a cannonball.
Jin Taixui adjusted his stance, lunged forward, and followed close behind.
Yun E watched Xi Xi, a proud and comforted smile gracing her increasingly beautiful features.
She had witnessed Xi Xi’s growth since their time in the Golden Light Prefecture, when Xi Xi was still just a toddler.
Now, Xi Xi was embarking on her own path of Cultivation.
Yun E had only agreed to this training out of her deep concern for Xi Xi, whom she viewed as a younger sister.
Yun E donned a hat draped with a white veil and cradled the fluffy white rabbit in her arms. Immortal Qi surged within her niwan, surrounding her with a transcendent, ethereal aura as she followed.
Leaving their home and loved ones behind for the first time, the four children began their journey of training and growth.
