If she and Aqi's whereabouts are so easily concealed from them, then their identities must be quite extraordinary!
"You and Granny Xue..."
Feng Qinghuang didn't finish her sentence, but she did seem to have some doubts about their identities.
For some reason, this old Taoist priest gave her a very familiar feeling, but she didn't remember him.
The old Taoist priest chuckled: "Little girl, you finally suspect my identity. I thought you weren't curious about it at all!"
Feng Qinghuang rolled her eyes to the sky: "You've done so much and know so much about us, I can't help but be suspicious!"
"Grandma Xue, she is the one who controls time and space, which is why you can come and go so freely. As for Old Daoist Ma, she is naturally a deity who controls the cause and effect of the world."
Upon hearing the old Taoist priest's words, Feng Qinghuang pursed her lips and said, "Most of those who claim to be immortals are probably liars."
"Old man, haven't we met before? I mean in our past life."
The old Taoist priest gave Granny Xue a smug look. "See? The little girl still recognizes me. I told you before, but you didn't believe me."
Grandma Xue completely ignored him and kept stroking Xiaoxue's big head.
The old Taoist priest was extremely embarrassed. He grinned at Feng Qinghuang, startling Rong Qi so much that he almost attacked her. Although he couldn't beat her, he couldn't let her be rude to Jiaojiao.
The old Taoist priest looked at Rong Qi, who was fiercely protective of his own, and said sharply, "Do you think I can do anything to this little girl? When I met her, you were still hiding somewhere! All of her skills were taught to you by me. If I hadn't taught her so well, you wouldn't have met her. You should be secretly laughing."
Feng Qinghuang suddenly stood up from the stool, looking at the old Taoist priest with a dangerous gaze: "What did you say? Say it again, who exactly are you?"
The old Taoist priest quickly covered his mouth, realizing he'd forgotten how vengeful this little girl was.
"Little girl, I apologize to you. I disappeared without a word because of an urgent matter. I was afraid you wouldn't be able to handle the separation and would cry, so I..."
Feng Qinghuang pointed her slender finger at the old Taoist priest: "Are you that stinky old man Bai Feng?"
When the old Taoist priest saw that the little girl recognized him, he simply transformed back into his original appearance. Removing his Taoist priest attire, Bai Feng was now a clean-cut and cheerful old man.
"Hehehe, as expected, Huang'er is the smartest." Bai Feng's voice returned to its former self when she was teaching Phoenix.
Feng Qinghuang pouted, her eyes brimming with tears.
Bai Feng's heart skipped a beat; she feared this little girl wouldn't let things go so easily.
Bai Feng glanced at Granny Xue, gesturing for her to go and comfort her. But Granny Xue just shrugged, looking helpless.
Bai Feng could only step forward to comfort her: "My dear disciple, don't cry. Your tears are breaking my heart. I had no choice, and there really was an emergency at the time."
After Bai Feng finished speaking, he continued to observe Feng Qinghuang's emotions.
Feng Qinghuang suddenly recalled her past life, when she had been silent for a long time because of her master's sudden disappearance. She was born without parents, but fortunately she had her master by her side. However, her master's unexplained disappearance made her re-examine herself and wonder if she was truly destined to have nothing.
"Master, didn't you ever think about how I would live all alone? I thought I was destined to be all alone. After you left, I was depressed for a long time before I recovered. Now you've appeared in front of me again. What am I supposed to do?!"
Bai Feng had no choice but to try to comfort her: "Alright, my good disciple, it's all your master's fault. Don't cry, it breaks my heart. Rong Qi, can you please talk to her instead of just standing there watching?"
Bai Feng was truly at a loss. He didn't know how to comfort people. In his previous life, the little girl was incredibly strong, and she rarely complained while practicing martial arts from a young age. Now that she had returned, Granny Xue was even more domineering. He hadn't comforted anyone in years, and this was putting him in a very difficult position.
Rong Qi knew that Feng Qinghuang needed to vent, and if he didn't let her get out of this rage, she would feel even more uncomfortable, so he didn't say anything, but simply held her silently.
Feng Qinghuang gradually stopped sobbing, and with her rabbit-like eyes raised, she asked, "We've been living over there for over ten years, so what time is it here now? What about our Wanwan and the others?"
Bai Feng quickly chimed in, afraid that she would feel even more upset: "Don't worry, my dear disciple. A year there is only one day here. You've only been here for a little over ten days. Don't worry, nothing has changed."
Feng Qinghuang let out a long breath, exhaling the pent-up frustration that had been building up in her heart for so many years.
"Thank goodness, we thought we were going to miss out on having children for so many years. But only a few days have passed and we suddenly have a little one. We'll have to explain this when we get back."
Bai Feng sighed inwardly, "If it's not easy to explain, I can use a secret technique to maintain her appearance as a one-year-old for now, and you can go back after you've stayed for the required number of days."
Feng Qinghuang agreed with Bai Feng's statement. If she and A Qi returned and suddenly brought Xi Xi back, the children would probably be very curious. However, explaining it would involve many issues, so it was best to keep it a secret for now.
