Chapter 5257 I Will Come Back to Find You
Does the Evil Lord have offspring? If you think about it carefully, it's impossible for someone who has existed since time immemorial to have no beloved children, so it's not surprising that he would have children.
"Come back to my side." Xiao Yan went with the flow, not only for the Nine Nether Profound Flame, but also to find out if this Li'er was truly the offspring of the Evil Lord.
What happened to her, and can he make amends for the Evil Lord? He's not a pushover, but because of the Evil Lord's legacy, it's been of paramount importance all along.
The Zichen Void Spirit Tower left by the Venerable One, and the Life-Shaping Mark given by the Evil Venerable, among other things, were what helped Xiao Yan reach where he is today.
He should help her, both morally and logically.
"Tell me what happened, why you became like this."
The coldness in Xiao Yan's arms seemed to have dissipated, and it was gradually warming up.
And he also touched upon Li'er's core memories.
…………
A tall, slender man in a black robe stood upright, his features sharply defined and handsome, with a carefree smile playing on his lips, his good looks tinged with a hint of wicked charm.
The figure's black robe was tattered, as if he had just finished a fierce battle, but a smile remained on his face.
He seemed to be really enjoying this feeling.
He gasped for breath, his palms outstretched and covered in blood. There, a tiny, almost transparent, pale blue flame flickered weakly and tenaciously, as if it might go out at any moment.
"How peculiar! The flames are actually emanating the rules of ice. Little guy, you're quite resilient. From now on, you'll stay with me."
"It is fate that you have followed me all this way."
Whether it understood or not, it swayed in its palm, witnessing this figure traversing life and death, conquering all directions, and facing countless desperate situations.
He gradually discovered that this nascent flame of chilling energy unleashed terrifying power time and time again at crucial moments, but each time it weakened by a fraction.
"Following me... will be even more dangerous for you, and you'll disappear forever." The figure murmured, his eyes filled with complex emotions. The path he was on was fraught with corpses and blood; would it lead to utter destruction or to the summit?
He wasn't sure, so he didn't want this flame to be extinguished for his sake.
However, the flames seemed to understand, their faint light flickering rapidly, conveying a clearer and more reluctant emotion.
“I know that you are a primordial fire, and after ten thousand years, you will surely grow into a powerful flame that will shake the ages, rather than fighting me now.”
"Live on, and when you grow up, I will come back to find you. Remember me, and don't forget me."
As time passed and blood and fire intertwined, its chilling power grew increasingly astonishing. The power of its flames, capable of freezing everything, and its obsession with the departing figure, gradually gave it sentience.
It saw the offspring of the human race and called them its closest relatives, so the figure in its mind became its obsession and its closest relative.
"Daddy...Daddy."
And just as promised, that figure came to find her.
Upon hearing this, the figure didn't speak to correct it, but instead smiled and reached out to rub its little head.
"The fascinating origin can even take human form."
Next, it became a powerful weapon in the hands of this figure, which used it to commit rampages.
Until one day, the figure suddenly abandoned it and disappeared completely.
It didn't understand death; it only knew that its father hadn't appeared again, so he must have abandoned it. So it kept waiting and waiting...
It waited for countless years, through countless changes of time, through the birth and death of stars.
But it firmly believed that its father would come looking for it again.
Its loneliness turned into endless chill, until it froze the whole world, waiting for its expectation, waiting for that figure to come and take it away.
…………
Xiao Yan's dilated pupils suddenly contracted, his soul detached from this memory. He took a deep breath and finally understood that this was not the offspring of the Evil Lord.
Instead, it followed a source of the Evil Lord, which gave birth to sentience and formed an inseparable bond with the Evil Lord.
"Li'er, did I name you Li'er?"
Xiao Yan asked, and she raised her porcelain-like face and nodded.
It is indeed rare for a primordial being to possess human emotions, but Xiao Yan has seen it before, because Long Yi was one such example, being formed from the profound lightning of heaven and earth.
The likelihood of such a change is small, but it is indeed possible.
"You are no longer alone. From now on, will you stay with me?"
Xiao Yan said softly, "Although I am different from others, my emotions are real. I am not the Evil Lord, but I have many connections with him."
Subduing it and keeping it by my side would fulfill its long-cherished wish.
“Daddy, you’re not the same as before, but I recognize you and I would never mistake you. I just feel like you’ve forgotten Li’er.”
Ice Porcelain looked at Xiao Yan with a puzzled expression. It still had doubts, and Xiao Yan's attitude towards it since he arrived was very strange.
"Even immortal beings like humans and gods cannot escape the river of time; they will forget, but they will also remember."
"We may drift apart, but we will also reunite. As long as we can meet again after countless years, isn't that enough?"
Xiao Yan spoke slowly, a smile finally appearing on his porcelain-like face, and he nodded gently.
"Yes, Daddy, I'd like to go with you!"
After this response, the chill of the entire Ice Abyss dissipated at an incredible speed, and the ice blocking the Xuanming Ice Abyss also vanished.
A cold light slowly floated in front of Xiao Yan, having already gathered all the icy energy into itself.
Xiao Yan opened his eyes, withdrew his soul power, and reached out to hold it in his palm.
"As expected of my husband, he really did it. He subdued the source of such deep resentment in such a short time."
Ye Beijing stepped forward, her beautiful eyes curving into crescents, and her pretty face was still quite pleasing to the eye when brought close.
"It is truly incredible that a source has developed the same emotions as humans, or even more intense emotions. They must have been very close in the past."
Ye Beijing continued, revealing that she had already seen through it all and understood what was going on, never suspecting that it was the offspring of the Venerable One or the Evil Venerable One.
"Let's go, we can leave now."
Xiao Yan nodded. He still needed to find his clone, so he immediately prepared to absorb the Nine Nether Profound Flame into his body.
However, at that moment, a strong sense of impending doom swept over him, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
Immediately, his entire body burst into a bright red light, sweeping towards the darkness of the icy abyss above.
Rumble!!
The resounding sounds were endless, and streaks of sword energy broke through Xiao Yan's Annihilation Flame, rushing straight towards him.
"You destroyed my Ice Palace, and now you want to take away my essence. Even if you are a Venerable One, it is too unruly of you to come to my Nine Heavens Divine Realm!"
Just then, a thunderous sound came from the icy abyss above, enveloping Xiao Yan.
The sweeping sword energy broke through layers of obstacles and headed straight for Xiao Yan!
