Meeting those accusing eyes, and recalling her abnormal rebirth, Qiqi awkwardly touched her nose.

Is it... because of me?

"What do you think!" He practically shouted those words.

Qiqi: ……

Okay, why do I feel inexplicably guilty?

Qiqi chuckled awkwardly, fiddling with her fingers. "I'm so sorry, Grandpa Heavenly Dao, thank you for saving me! Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to do good deeds and accumulate merit to help you regain your original immortal appearance as soon as possible!"

When this little girl has a sweet tongue, she really is sweet; a few words from her can make Tiandao feel quite pleased with himself.

Even though his cheekbones were practically pointing to the sky, he still had to keep a straight face, saying, "You'd better be!"

"Don't worry, it's all covered!" Qiqi patted her chest confidently.

In the end, Heaven couldn't hold back and stroked its beard, laughing.

He wasn't really angry to begin with. Besides, the little devil's face was so deceptively charming; who would be willing to actually get angry with a little dumpling?

Moreover, this little dumpling was created by him, so it can be considered his child.

People are always more lenient and fond of their own children.

"Let's see if we can do it!"

Qiqi pouted. Why don't you trust people?

"Grandpa Tiandao, what important matter brings you down here to see me?"

When this was mentioned, Tiandao's expression turned serious.

"Qiqi, as a cultivator, you should know very well that in the Three Thousand Minor Worlds, each world has its own Heavenly Dao. Heavenly Daos cannot arbitrarily interfere with the rules and affairs of other worlds. So, rescuing you from that world and bringing you to my world almost exhausted all my power. Therefore, when you were first reborn in this world, I was in a deep sleep."

"It was only after you did many good deeds and accumulated a lot of merit and good fortune that I awoke. But my power is not enough to support me in taking physical form, so I can only meet you in this form."

Qiqi was well aware that the laws of nature could not be interfered with.

Naturally, they are also well aware of the backlash and punishment that would result from their unwarranted interference.

That's why Qiqi was so shocked when she heard Tiandao say that she couldn't say a word.

Moved to tears, she looked at the ethereal figure of the Heavenly Dao and shed bittersweet tears.

"Grandpa Tiandao, thank you!"

"Tsk, what a spineless little girl, crying already?!" Heavenly Dao feigned anger. "I didn't save you for nothing; I need your help with something!"

"You want my help? Help me with what?"

"Qiqi, you must listen carefully to what I'm about to say."

For some reason, Qiqi felt that she had been a bit hasty and hadn't set enough conditions when she made them earlier; she should have set more.

The old man from Heaven went to so much trouble to get her here, so it must be very difficult for him to do something.

Sure enough, what Tiandao said next made her want to run away immediately!

The Heavenly Dao said, "Back then, the reason I was able to save you across worlds was because your master first broke down the barriers between the small worlds and sealed the Demon King of your world here. For this, he did not hesitate to drain all the spiritual energy here, which is why our spiritual energy is so depleted!"

"However, influenced by the demonic energy of the chief demon, demons and monsters have begun to appear frequently here. In addition, after the chief demon broke free of the seal, he cut his demonic soul to create demonic seeds, affecting the ordinary people of this world and causing the crime rate to rise frequently. If this continues, this world will eventually fall into the demon realm. At that time, this world will probably be devastated!"

"That's why I brought you from that world here, hoping you would save the countless lives in this world!"

Qiqi: ……

no!

Do you want to hear what you're saying?

Is this reasonable?

Let a little brat like her deal with the Demon Lord!

Is it too late to send her back now?!

Perhaps the little girl's shocked and resistant expression was too obvious, so the Heavenly Dao's momentum waned as he spoke, until his voice became weak. "I know this is difficult, but there's no other way. This world lacks spiritual energy. Only your cultivation method can convert merit into spiritual power for your own use, so it can only be you!"

Qiqi: ……

"No, I'm only a Mahayana cultivator in the cultivation world, far from being able to ascend. That Demon Chief is like an ancient ancestor; even a great god nearing ascension in the late Mahayana stage might not be able to defeat him. You want me to go? Why don't you just choose someone stronger to capture?"

The Heavenly Dao pretended not to hear the accusation, took a deep breath and continued, "Ever since the Demon Chief was sealed in this world, the beings in this world have been living in misery. This is all the sins committed by your sect. If only your master had chosen a larger world with more abundant spiritual energy, the spiritual energy wouldn't have been drained to the point where all the major sects could no longer cultivate."

"This can be considered a karmic debt owed by your sect, so only someone from your sect can repay it. If not you, then it will be another junior brother or sister from your sect."

Qiqi: ……

So, this is why the junior brother is in the underworld of this world, and the seventh junior sister was reincarnated in this world as well?!

This is a forced sale; we have no choice but to make her accept it!

Qiqi gritted her teeth. "You need to get this straight. Even if you want to force me to save the world, please consider the relative strengths of me and the enemy. This isn't just an imbalance; it's a complete annihilation. How am I supposed to fight? How am I supposed to save the world?"

"Of course I won't let you fight the Demon Chief in your current state. It will take him a long time to completely break the seal, so..."

"But this world has no spiritual energy, so my cultivation is slow. Even if he needs time, he shouldn't wait until I reach the late stage of the Mahayana stage!"

Heaven's Way: ...

That's impossible to wait that long!

"You can accumulate more merits!"

Qiqi gritted her teeth.

But there was no better way, so he could only nod and say, "This is the only way for now!"

He paused, then looked at the old man of the Heavenly Dao with some disdain, "But Grandpa Heavenly Dao, you are the Heavenly Dao, can't you offer me some shortcuts? Even if it's not a one-step solution, at least let me take a shorter route!"

"No!"

Perhaps noticing that the little girl's expression was not good, Tiandao quickly played the victim to appease her anger.

"Look at me now, what a price I paid to bring you back from there and save your life. If there were even the slightest way, wouldn't I have wanted to?!"

Qiqi: ……

Okay, you're right this time.

Qiqi originally wanted to bargain a little more, but seeing Tiandao glaring at her, clearly angry about the sad past, she could only swallow her words.

"Alright then, I'll try my best to accumulate merit first! But..."

Her tone made a complete 180-degree turn: "Don't have too high expectations of me. I can't guarantee I can actually do it!"
