Although they wanted to know the whole truth, Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye were unwilling to sacrifice the life of Tianjie Baobao.
Moreover, this little guy is so cute, and his crying looks really pitiful.
Shang Xiye transmitted his thoughts to Ji Fengyao, saying, "My little wife, I can sense that he actually has good intentions towards us."
Sometimes, I even feel that he is protecting us.
I didn't feel it very clearly before, and I thought that I was able to escape the heavenly tribulation in my previous life because of the extreme flames, which was just luck.
But when you were trapped in the illusion before, I rushed in to find you, and especially when I got to your side, lightning struck everywhere.
At that time, I clearly felt that every bolt of lightning that struck us deliberately avoided us.
That wasn't because I was carrying the Sky-Covering Stone; it must have been a deliberate miss, or I was knocked away by him.
"Actually, I have this feeling that the previous Eye of Heaven was not on the same side as him, otherwise he wouldn't have stayed hidden in the smog and not come out to stop me even though I refined the Eye of Heaven," Ji Fengyao said, her heart also showing a conflicted and reluctant expression.
Honestly, it doesn't feel good to threaten or intimidate a child (even though he's a child who's lived longer than anyone else).
So Ji Fengyao put away her fierce expression and said, "Fine, we won't force you to answer what you can't; but you can at least tell me why you call me Little Ancestor, right?"
"Eek..." Tianjie Baby slowly stopped crying, blinking her big, bright blue eyes at Ji Fengyao with an innocent look: "Because you are everyone's little ancestor!"
"Everyone, who are everyone?" Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye were even more confused by his questions.
“Everyone is everyone,” Tianjie Baby tilted his little head, seemingly wondering why his little ancestor would ask such a basic question.
Ji Fengyao: "..."
Shang Xiye: "..."
Is this guy just seemingly shrewd, but actually acting and thinking like a three-year-old?
It turns out that Heaven's rewards and punishments are controlled by such a little child. This is truly a "surprise" for all cultivators in the world!
The two questioned each other for a long time, but apart from knowing that there was another place besides the Holy Realm that might be called Hongmeng, they couldn't get anything else out of them and had no choice but to give up.
They weren't the kind of people who were utterly heartless; they couldn't possibly keep the Heavenly Tribulation Baby imprisoned here and tortured indefinitely.
"Since you can't say anything, can't you at least do me a favor?" Ji Fengyao finally said, having given up.
"Help with what?" Tianjie Baby firmly adhered to his principles, speaking earnestly in a childish voice like a little adult: "Master said that we cannot break the rules of the Heavenly Dao for the sake of Little Ancestor alone."
"Alright, the matter I need your help with will absolutely not violate the rules of Heaven. You just need to pay some attention and act in time..." Ji Fengyao approached Tianjie Baobao and explained the matter she needed to help with to him in detail.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Tianjie Baby asked her for several more pieces of clothing formed from the primordial chaos energy.
After some haggling, Ji Fengyao released the overjoyed Heavenly Tribulation Baby.
Immediately afterwards, Ji Fengyao also left the Tower of Life carrying a Rejuvenation Pill and a Death Pill.
The moment she appeared, an invisible Daoist aura surged through the world. Centered on the Rejuvenation Pill and the Death-Reversing Pill, this aura spread like ripples throughout the entire Pill Spirit Continent and even the three thousand six hundred realms, until it was recognized by the Heavenly Dao rules of all the mortal cultivation worlds.
