As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Jiao Shaoqiu waved his sleeve, his face cold: “Who would know there are no miracles without trying?”

“`

“In the Temple God Resonance of Golden Light Prefecture, Xi Xi was extraordinary, suppressing many Divine Children, even surpassing Ji Haihui, the son of the King of Quelling Chaos Ji Molie, and Tie Shancai, the son of a Commandery Princess from the Divine Capital…”

“`

“What makes you think Xi Xi has no chance or hope?”

“`

Jiao Shaoqiu was not pleased; these people wanted to intercept Xi Xi, the Divine Child, ahead of time—how could he tolerate it?

“`

Xi Xi was the one he had brought back; he had to be responsible for Xi Xi’s future.

“If that’s the case, then let’s follow Elder Jiao’s advice. I appreciate Elder Ji’s kindness, but Xi Xi still wants to give it a try.”

“`

Li Che said amicably.

Wei He’s eyes lowered, looking at the unassuming young man before him, his brow furrowing: “Have you considered… If you fail in the assessment to become the Sect Master’s direct disciple, if you perform poorly, you might even lose the chance to become a disciple of an Inner Sect Elder.”
