Chapter 2429 Brother Ling Tian and Sister Ke’er’s Daughter
When Duan Si Ling heard Little Gold rebuking her, she was rather shocked. She instinctively glanced at the black-clad little boy and white-clad little girl who were standing nearby. After a while, an idea formed in her mind and she asked tentatively, “A-are you Little Gold?”
“Hmm?” The golden-clad girl looked at Duan Si Ling impatiently. However, upon hearing Duan Si Ling’s words, she began to study Duan Si Ling intently. She discovered that this girl who looked about ten years of age seemed quite familiar. However, she was certain she had not met this girl before. After a while, she asked, “Who are you? How do you know me? Did the old geezer tell you about me?”
“You’re truly Little Gold?” Duan Si Ling became excited when the golden-clad little girl did not deny her words. She said excitedly, “Since you’re Little Gold, those two must be Little Black and Little White!” She turned to look at the black-clad little boy and white-clad little girl who also returned her stare.
The white-clad little girl could not help but ask the black-clad little boy, “Little Black, don’t you think she looks rather familiar?”
The black-clad little boy nodded in agreement.
‘Little Gold, Little Black, and Little White? So, it’s them!’ Gan Ru Yan was Ke’er’s sister. Naturally, she had heard a lot from Ke’er during the time they spent together. She remembered Ke’er mentioning a little gold mouse and two little pythons. She also learned that these three had accompanied Han Xue Nai to the Seven Absolutes Sect before they were sent away by the Old Prophet. Who knew they would return at this time? She sighed in relief. Since these three were Little Gold, Little Black, and Little White, she knew they would definitely not harm her niece. After all, her niece was the daughter of the person whom they cared about the most!
“Who are you? I feel you look familiar, but I’m certain I haven’t met you before,” Little White asked as she looked at Duan Si Ling in confusion. She could see the shadow of two people on this girl, and these two people were extremely important to her.
Gan Ru Yan looked at Little Gold, Little White, and Little Black before she introduced Duan Si Ling. “She’s called Duan Si Ling.”
Three of them instantly s.h.i.+fted their eyes to Gan Ru Yan.
“Sister Ke’er?” Little White’s eyes brightened and an excited expression appeared on her face the moment she saw Gan Ru Yan.
Little Gold’s eyes brightened for a moment as well before it dimmed down. She said, “No, she’s not Sister Ke’er! They look identical, but I’m certain she’s not Sister Ke’er. Their auras are different!” After all, before she gained a human form, she had often stayed in Ke’er’s sleeves, therefore, she was very familiar with Ke’er’s aura.
“She isn’t Sister Ke’er,” Little Black chimed in at this moment, agreeing with Little Gold.
Upon hearing Little Gold and Little Black’s words, Little White’s excitement faded as well. Indeed. Upon closer inspection, although the lady before them looked identical to Ke’er, their aura and temperament were different.
“Indeed. I’m not your Sister Ke’er,” Gan Ru Yan clarified, “I’m her twin sister, Gan Ru Yan. As for Si Ling, she’s Duan Ling Tian and Ke’er’s daughter.”
“Brother Ling Tian and Sister Ke’er’s daughter?”
“No wonder she looks familiar. I can see the shadow of Sister Ke’er and Brother Ling Tian in her!”
“As it turns out, she’s Brother Ling Tian and Sister Ke’er’s daughter!”
Little Gold and Little White brightened upon hearing Gan Ru Yan’s words. They flew excitedly toward Duan Si Ling and studied her intently.
Although Little Black did not move, his gaze had softened and was no longer cold. In fact, a hint of affection could be seen in his eyes as well.
“I didn’t think Brother Ling Tian and Sister Ke’er’s daughter would grow up so fast,” Little Gold said to herself before she turned to say to Duan Si Ling in a gentle tone, “You’re Si Ling, right? I’m your aunt, Little Gold.” She smiled at Duan Si Ling affectionately. Her att.i.tude now was completely different from how it was earlier.
Duan Si Ling shook her head. “You look younger than me, I won’t call you aunt.” Indeed, Little Gold looked much younger than Duan Si Ling. It was, naturally, difficult for a ten-year-old girl to address a little girl who looked to be eight or nine years old as aunt.
“You…” When Little Gold heard Duan Si Ling’s words, she was slightly displeased but could not find it in her heart to get angry. So, she tried to convince Duan Si Ling in a gentle voice, “Be good, Si Ling. When I met your parents, you weren’t even born yet. Therefore, you should address me as aunt.” She really wanted to hear Duan Si Ling address her as aunt. Unfortunately, Duan Si Ling was unwilling.
Rage surged up in Little Gold’s heart, but she, naturally, could not bear to vent her anger on Duan Si Ling. After all, she was the daughter of the two people she cared about. For this reason, she doted on Duan Si Ling as well.
Little White shook her head and laughed. “Isn’t fine, Little Gold… If Si Ling doesn’t want to address you as aunt, it’s okay. Why do you care so much about a t.i.tle?” In her eyes, Duan Si Ling was just a child who needed their care. There was no need for them to take her so seriously.
“Fine, fine…” Little Gold gave in immediately. After all, how could she bear to be angry with Duan Si Ling?
At this moment, Little Black walked over. His gaze was affectionate, and a rarely seen warm smile could be seen on his face when he looked at Duan Si Ling. He said, “Si Ling, I’m Little Black. Are Brother Ling Tian and Sister Ke’er doing well?”
Duan Si Ling looked at the black hole in the void as she said, “Daddy and mommy have entered the Sword Saint Secret Zone.” She paused for a moment before she added, “Uncle Su Li has gone in as well…” A hint of worry could be seen on her face when she mentioned Su Li.
“What?”
As soon as Duan Si Ling’s words left her mouth, Little Gold, Little Black, and Little White were shocked.
“Su Li hasn’t ascended yet? And he has entered the Sword Saint Secret Zone?”
Three of them had thought that after going into the Legacy Blood Pond, Su Li had ascended to a Devata Realm. Who knew that was not the case? Moreover, he even came here. They were not surprised that Su Li made his way here. After all, when three of them could not find Han Xue Nai at the snow-capped mountain that used to be the temporary estate of the Seven Absolutes Sect, they had sensed the energy here when they left. If it was not because of the Legacy Blood Pool, they would not have detected this aura. Since the energy was similar to the Legacy Blood Pool, they decided to follow the energy here. Who knew they would meet the Old Prophet as soon as they arrived?
“Si Ling… Did you say that Su Li was here and he entered the secret zone?” Little White asked solemnly.
“Yes.” Duan Si Ling nodded.
After talking to Little White, Duan Si Ling finally understood Su Li’s condition. As it turned, he became like that because he had obtained an inheritance from the Devil Clans. Sometimes he would be normal, and sometimes he would be unable to recognize anyone.
“Su Li actually pointed his blade at you?” The three of their expressions darkened immediately when they learned Su Li had attacked Duan Si Ling. Three of them had treated Su Li well in the past due to Su Li’s relations.h.i.+p with Duan Ling Tian. How could they tolerate Su Li pointing his sword at Duan Si Ling who was Duan Ling Tian’s daughter? After all, between Duan Ling Tian and Su Li, naturally, Duan Ling Tian was more important to them.
“Si Ling, are you alright?” Little White and Little Gold approached Duan Si Ling and examined her carefully, clearly concerned.
“I’m alright.” Duan Si Ling slightly shook her head. “At that time, Uncle Su Li managed to stop himself. He only cut some of my hair.”
“Good… That’s good…” Little White and Little Gold sighed in relief.
Although Little Black remained silent, his tense expression relaxed as well when he heard Duan Si Ling’s words.
After a while, Little Gold turned to the Old Prophet and asked, “Old geezer, where’s Sister Xue Nai?”
Before the Old Prophet could reply, Duan Si Ling quickly chimed in, “Aunt Xue Nai has also entered the Sword Saint Secret Zone!”
Little White’s eyes brightened. “This means Brother Ling Tian, Sister Ke’er, and Sister Xue Nai are together?”
“Yes, they’ve been reunited for a while now. Daddy is now the Sect Leader of Seven Absolutes Sect!” Duan Si Ling said proudly.
“The Sect Leader of the Seven Absolutes Sect?” Little Gold, Little White, and Little Black were taken aback when they heard Duan Si Ling’s words.
