After entering the palace, the fog demon chanted a spell, and the eternal lamp in the originally pitch-black palace lit up, dispelling the darkness. Stepping on the bluestone slabs, the fog demon finally felt a little more grounded and said, "This is the palace of the gods."
"Mom, why are you in a daze again..." Xiao Guoer looked at Jiuxi in surprise. His hands, which were tightly holding the branches, were trembling a little. This was the countless times that Jiuxi had been in a daze.
It wasn't until Xiao Guoer tugged at Jiuxi's robe that Jiuxi came back to her senses and realized how absent-minded she had been. She lowered her voice and said, "There's something wrong with the City God in Kyoto. Xiao Guoer, do you want to go with mother to take a look?"
In fact, the replacement of the City God is not a big deal, but whenever Jiuxi stays in the underworld and sees Mingye's cold look, his heart feels as if it is cut by a knife. If he goes to Kyoto to play for a few days, perhaps he will feel better.
The underworld always has a dark sky, because the ghost messengers and little ghosts cannot see the sun at all... When Xiao Guoer heard that she could go out to play, she nodded quickly, "Mom, I want to go!"
The haze in his eyes was gradually dispelled by the child's smile. Jiuxi patted the dust off Xiao Guoer's clothes, and said with a smile, "Xiao Guoer, do you want to bring anything?"
Jiuxi looked at Xiaoguo'er seriously, but Xiaoguo'er felt something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. Xiaoguo'er curled her fingers and said sadly, "Daddy, aren't you going with us?"
"Of course I won't go!" Before Jiuxi could answer, a woman appeared in front of him. Xiaoshuang squatted down and stretched out her hand, wanting to touch Xiaoguo'er's head. Seeing Xiaoguo'er's guarded look, Xiaoshuang finally retracted her hand and said with some regret, "Xiaoguo'er, do you still remember me?"
Xiao Guoer hid her head in Jiuxi's arms, her eyes full of disgust.
Jiuxi held Xiao Guoer in his arms and stood up, his eyes flashing with coldness as he said, "Watch your words and actions!"
Although Xiao Shuang's eyes were filled with resentment, she smiled lightly, "Sister Xi, Xiao Guo'er doesn't look much like the Lord..."
Jiuxi almost reached out and knocked Xiaoshuang down, but at this moment she could only swallow her anger. She smiled weakly and said, "This king suggests that you return to your mother's womb and be reborn."
Obviously, she had given up on arguing, but this woman still spoke such vicious words, suspecting that she had cheated on her. She didn't understand how there could be such a shameless person in the world. It was clearly Jialou Mingye who betrayed her, and now she was trying to put the blame on her.
Jiuxi tried hard to suppress the bitterness in his eyes and said sinisterly, "If you still don't know your limits, I will send you back to the Fox Clan!"
Xiao Shuang snorted, her eyes filled with contempt, and said, "Sister Xi, if Xiao Shuang leaves, I'm afraid Sister Xi will be heartbroken!"
It's nothing more than a villain's success. How long can a man's favor last... Hehe...
Jiuxi was still thinking to herself, not wanting to even glance at Xiaoshuang's disgusting face, and she took Xiaoguoer away from Sanchuan Road. On the way, Jiuxi felt a sticky dampness on her chest, and a sour taste in the air. She lowered her eyes and saw Xiaoguoer burying her head deeply in her arms, her shoulders trembling from time to time, as if she was enduring something. Xiaoguoer was crying...
Jiuxi's voice was soft, "Xiao Guo'er, what's wrong?"
Xiao Guoer, however, refused to look up and cried inconsolably, "Mom, do I really look nothing like Daddy? Is it because Xiao Guoer and Daddy don't look alike that Daddy is mad at you?"
