"Just call me Lin Tian. I've been alone for a long time. Can I meet those kids?"
After introducing himself, Lin Tian proposed to take care of the child together with Yunxi, but Yunxi hesitated as if he was not completely confident in Lin Tian.
Lin Tian naturally noticed Yun Xi's concerns, but he didn't mention it again. He continued to turn the fish over to ensure that it was heated evenly.
The fresh fish are turned into various shapes, exuding an enticing aroma.
Looking at Lin Tian who was flipping through the books skillfully in front of her, Yun Xi fell into deep thought unconsciously. She always felt that the man in front of her was very familiar, but she couldn't tell where he was familiar. She just felt that some vague images remained in her mind.
The image is blurry, but it leaves a deep impression on me.
She couldn't remember, but her intuition told her that this man definitely knew her, she just couldn't remember.
"What are you thinking about? Are you tired and want to rest? Pack up the leftovers and take them back to feed the children."
"Oh, no, no, I was just thinking about whether I should take you with me to take care of these children."
Yun Xi quickly regained his composure and explained to Lin Tian, but Lin Tian just smiled.
The former head of Tianji Pavilion, a powerful figure, actually showed such a feminine expression.
"Lin Tian, have you been through a lot?"
"Well, some experience."
"So do you have someone you like?"
"Someone you like?"
"Don't tell me you're in love with me. It may sound cliché, but I still want to tell you: Don't be obsessed with me. I'm just a legend."
“Pfft, hahahaha.”
Yun Xi didn't expect that she would ask such a childish question and couldn't help laughing out loud. Seeing Lin Tian's speechless look, she quickly covered her mouth.
"Yunxi, your smile is pure, without any impurities."
Looking at Yunxi's bright smile, Lin Tian sighed sincerely that he actually felt very happy, which was something he had never experienced before.
"How do you know my name?"
"I'm just guessing. Hahaha, maybe we knew each other before."
The two chatted happily until the sun set and the sky gradually darkened. Yunxi realized that it was getting late, so he quickly left the place and prepared to go back.
When I was about to leave, a flock of birds suddenly flew up in the distance.
"That's where the children are... Did something happen?"
Suddenly, an ominous premonition flashed through her mind, and Yunxi hurriedly ran towards the child's home, but Lin Tian picked her up and dodged, and the two appeared outside the door.
As soon as she walked out of the door, Yunxi heard bursts of crying and screaming coming from inside. The children were shouting for help, but she became more worried.
Thinking of this, Yunxi pushed open the door and rushed in.
As soon as he rushed in, Yun Xi was shocked by the scene in front of him. Inside the room, a group of children were huddled together on the ground.
A boy in front of them was pinching a little girl's neck with his hands, squeezing it hard. The child's breathing was getting weaker and weaker, and her legs were kicking.
"Who are you! What do you want to do!?"
Yunxi reacted and rushed towards the little boy, trying to stop his behavior.
But he didn't care about Yunxi. Instead, he pushed her away, revealing his fangs and looking at Yunxi fiercely, his eyes emitting red light.
"You monster!"
After Yunxi was pushed away by him, she staggered back a few steps. Lin Tian steadied her body and looked at the boy in front of him.
With a casual move of his finger, he broke the little girl's arm that was pinching her. The little girl fell to the ground and was picked up by Lin Tian and handed over to Yun Xi.
"Take them away from here."
After saying this lightly, Lin Tian drew out his sword and pointed it at the little boy.
The little boy looked at his broken hand, twisted his body in a weird posture, and slowly turned his gaze towards Lin Tian.
Then he took a deep breath, as if feeling the scent of Lin Tian in the air.
"Compared to those kids, you are more delicious—"
Before he finished speaking, the little boy turned into a blood shadow and rushed towards Yunxi, and was about to catch up with Yunxi.
Lin Tian hugged Yun Xi and blocked her behind him. The bloody claws brushed past her clothes and tore some of them, but did not hurt her.
Yun Xi was still in shock. If Lin Tian hadn't protected her in time, she would probably have become a corpse now.
When the attack failed, the little boy no longer maintained his human form and turned directly into his original form.
Judging from its appearance, it is clearly a drought demon! "This is a drought demon, hurry up and run with them."
"But you..."
"I will kill it and come back soon. Remember to wait for me. Got it?"
Seeing Lin Tian's appearance, Yun Xi was a little worried about his safety and hesitated to leave.
"Don't forget, you are the head of Tianji Pavilion. If you die, the fate of these children will be affected!"
Lin Tian looked at Yunxi's hesitation and suddenly felt annoyed. He didn't want Yunxi to be so kind, nor did he like others to be indecisive in front of him.
"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll leave now. Take care."
Seeing that Lin Tian was really angry, Yun Xi did not dare to delay and hurriedly left with the unconscious little girl in his arms.
"Really? Didn't I say I would go find you?"
Watching Yunxi carrying the little boy away, Lin Tian lowered his head and murmured. He did not follow them, but stood where he was, watching Yunxi's back gradually disappear from his sight.
Hanba roared and attacked Lin Tian, but was smashed to pieces by Lin Tian's palm.
"Rubbish."
Lin Tian shook his head, turned and walked to the other side. After taking a few steps, he felt a huge danger attacking from behind.
Lin Tian is not unfamiliar with this danger. This is the real Goddess of Drought!
However, Lin Tian continued to move forward regardless, but the sense of threat behind him did not diminish at all, but became even stronger.
"The goddess of drought, I have long admired her name."
Hearing this, Hanba was also startled and turned to look at Lin Tian. She hadn't heard the word "goddess" for a long time.
Where did this person who called her come from? Why did he know this title? And his strength seemed to be much stronger than hers.
"We have never met before. Why do you want to interfere with my business?"
Looking at Lin Tian who blocked her way, the goddess said calmly.
"I just want to discuss business with you, and your life is worth the price."
Lin Tian looked at the goddess with a smile. There was no fear at all on his face, but instead it was full of interest.
"Oh? So what are you going to exchange with me?"
