Folks! Who understands this feeling?! When she was born, her father was missing. When she was two, her mother disappeared. When she was four, her older brother fell into the river and drowned... Wa...
"What is it?" The little dumpling looked at Yan Zhen Tianzun with bright eyes.
Yan Zhentian looked at her with affection and said slowly, "You must recognize me as your master and become my little disciple. You will then come with me to Xiaoyao Continent to cultivate for ten years."
The little girl's smile gradually faded, her little hands clenched together in a panic, and she took several steps back.
"Go to Xiaoyao Continent? Does that mean I have to leave home?" The little dumpling shook its head, its eyes full of reluctance.
“Of course! You should stay with your master.” Yan Zhen Tianzun said matter-of-factly.
Ever since he realized that the little dumpling was a descendant of the Heavenly Dragon Clan, everything he did after coming to the Mu family was to bring the little dumpling back to Xiaoyao Continent.
This was a promise he made to the Celestial Dragon Clan.
Mu Ting and Qing Xi picked up the little dumpling.
Mu Tingzheng said coldly, "Heavenly Venerable, to be honest, my daughter was lost and wandered before she was four years old. I finally found her and brought her back. Now you want to take her away again. I will never agree to that!"
Mu Jinchen, along with his three younger brothers, stood in front of the little dumpling, demonstrating that they would not allow Yan Zhentianzun to take the little dumpling away.
Yan Zhentian frowned, looking at them with displeasure.
"I've already cured those people for you, and now you want to go back on your word?"
"Hmph! I'm trying to reason with you now. If you still don't agree, don't blame me for using force!"
Even though Yan Zhentian's tone was full of threats, the Mu family still showed no intention of backing down.
When the atmosphere reached a stalemate, the Fairy of the Blessed Fruit jumped out.
"Little dumpling, the Heavenly Venerable is willing to accept you as his disciple, this is such a wonderful thing! Why are you all unwilling!"
The Immortal of Fortune Fruit didn't understand. If the Heavenly Venerable were willing to accept him as a disciple, he would have already set off firecrackers to celebrate.
The little dumpling shook her head, sadly shrinking into her mother's arms. "I don't want to go to Xiaoyao Continent. I just want to stay with my mother, father, brother, and grandparents."
She had endured a difficult life in Qinghe Town, and it wasn't until she returned home and was cared for by her family that the scars in her heart slowly healed.
Now that the Celestial Venerable says he wants to take her away, she really can't accept it.
The little dumpling became increasingly sad as it looked at the scene, and started to sob.
While wiping away her tears, Qingxi gently patted her back and said with heartache, "Heavenly Venerable, since you insist on taking my daughter as your disciple, can our whole family go with Little Dumpling?"
Yan Zhentian refused, saying, "That won't do. Xiaoyao Continent is a sacred place for immortals, and it's not a place where mortals can just go anywhere."
"But I'm just a mortal too, why did you take me with you?" The little dumpling pouted and said with a wronged expression.
Seeing the red in her eyes, Yan Zhentian felt a pang of pity and decided to explain.
"Actually, little dumpling, you are not an ordinary person. You are a descendant of the Heavenly Dragon Clan."
"The Heavenly Dragon Clan? What are those things?" the little dumpling asked in confusion.
"The Heavenly Dragon Clan was the head of the four great families in the Immortal Realm. In the great war of the Immortal Realm ten thousand years ago, the entire clan perished. In order to preserve the last trace of the Heavenly Dragon Clan's bloodline, the clan leader left his remaining immortal soul in the world."
"And I have promised the patriarch of the Heavenly Dragon Clan that if the immortal soul is born one day, I will do everything in my power to raise it to be a useful person and rebuild the glory of the Heavenly Dragon Clan."
"So, little dumpling, you must come with me, because you bear the responsibility of the revival of the Heavenly Dragon Clan."
Everyone was shocked by what Yan Zhentianzun said and remained speechless for a long time.
Mu Ting was looking at the little dumpling.
The Celestial Dragon Clan?! His youngest daughter is actually from the Immortal Realm?!
