Looking at Qian Renjue running towards him.
Qian Xunji happily squatted down, embracing his good son in his arms.
"Xiao Jue, why didn't you go to rest earlier?"
"I was waiting for Grandpa Guangling to report back, where did Mama go?"
Qian Renjue held the glass in his hands.
He also suspected that Bibi Dong had discovered something amiss.
Hearing Qian Renjue's words.
Qian Xunji's expression was a little unnatural as he carried Qian Renjue and walked towards Qian Renxue.
"Dad."
Qian Renxue tilted her little face up, her voice clear and crisp.
"Yes."
Qian Xunji smiled slightly, putting down his right hand to rub Qian Renxue's head.
His eyes carried a hint of helplessness.
"Little Xue, Little Jue, don't go see Mom for a while, okay?"
"Why?"
Qian Renjue was taken aback.
Qian Xunji playfully flicked Qian Renjue's nose.
He explained with a smile, "Because Mom is going on a long trip, she'll be gone for quite a while."
"A long trip?!"
Qian Renxue reacted strongly, immediately thinking of the City of Slaughter! She hadn't expected her younger brother's arrival to cause that woman to go to the City of Slaughter for training ahead of schedule.
Qian Renjue recovered his senses, a guess forming in his mind.
He couldn't help but probe,
"Dad, what is Mom going on this long trip for? How long will she be gone?"
"Haha. As a Soul Master, of course I'm going to get stronger. Only by getting stronger can I protect you all."
Qian Xunji chuckled, and pulled the somewhat resistant Qian Renxue into his arms as well.
"As for how long Mommy will be gone, Daddy doesn't know right now."
Qian Renxue didn't expect that, after being reborn, Qian Xunji's lies were exactly the same.
Qian Renjue didn't speak again.
He lowered his head, looking somewhat worried.
You see…
That place, the 'City of Slaughter', would only make Bibi Dong even more crazy.
In Qian Renxue's opinion,
Qian Renjue was showing signs of loss, and she couldn't help but grab his little hand.
"Alright, cheer up. Mom is getting stronger for you."
Qian Xunji gently bounced the two children in his arms.
But neither the brother nor the sister seemed very interested.
Qian Xunji sighed inwardly.
He put on a smile and carried Qian Renxue and Qian Renjue towards their residence.
"It's getting late. Dad will take you back to your rooms to wash up and go to bed."
"But I want to wait for Guangling Douluo Grandpa!"
Qian Renjue really wanted to see Bibi Dong right now.
The words fell.
A stream of cold light flashed down from the sky.
"Little Juejue, don't wait anymore, okay?"
As Guangling Douluo's voice faded, a young man landed.
He explained helplessly, "Little Dong'er is a bit smart and has already noticed something amiss. You two little guys should go to bed early."
Upon hearing this.
Qian Renjue lowered his head, somewhat deflated.
"Fifth Uncle."
Qian Xunji greeted the Guangling Douluo, who looked like a young man.
Guangling Douluo nodded slightly and smiled.
"Xiao Ji, take the children back. I'm off too."
"Thank you, Grandpa Guangling."
"Haha, Xiao Juejue, you're welcome. Just play with Grandpa more."
Guangling Douluo laughed heartily and flew towards the depths of the Worship Hall.
Watching Guangling Douluo leave.
Qian Xunji, carrying the siblings in his arms, slowly moved away.
"Xue'er, Jue'er, come on, Dad has time today and can coax you to sleep."
Hearing Qian Xunji's words, Qian Renxue couldn't help but resist.
"Dad, we're not little anymore."
Qian Renjue agreed.
"Yeah, we can handle sleeping ourselves." "Uh…"
A bitter smile appeared on Qian Xunji's face.
He said helplessly: "Dad rarely has free time, you have to let Dad do something, right?"
Qian Renxue and Qian Renjue looked thoughtful.
Qian Renjue looked at the dirty clothes on his body, a slight smile appearing on his face.
"Then Dad will help us wash the clothes."
"Wash clothes?!"
A look of difficulty appeared on Qian Xunji's face; he had never done such a thing in his life.
"Can't you?"
"Yes, of course."
Seeing Qian Xunji's ingratiating look, Qian Renxue couldn't help but laugh a little.
But she harbored worries in her heart.
The night was still.
Qian Renjue and Qian Renxue had already finished their baths.
Qian Xunji, clumsy as ever, had ruined his clothes while washing them. He then swore at the tailor from afar.
He then announced he would buy new clothes for the children.
Under the disdainful gazes of Qian Renxue and Qian Renjue, their old father blushed and left, feeling somewhat dejected.
Now.
The siblings were embracing each other, lying in the same bed.
Qian Renjue buried his head in Qian Renxue's arms.
Qian Renxue habitually patted Qian Renjue's back gently, lulling him to sleep.
Qian Renjue was quiet, very quiet.
But secretly, he was having his third system opening since birth.
System prompts kept ringing in his head.
Ever since he was born.
After opening a [Infinite Pacifier] from the system.
When Qian Renjue was one year old.
Tried opening two more boxes.
Got a hundred points, and a storage soul tool.
Truly cursed.
With his current status, how could he possibly lack a storage soul tool?
This time, Bibi Dong was about to head to the City of Slaughter.
Qian Renjue wanted to see if the system's boxes held anything useful.
Maybe he could use them.
[Host has 2050 points!]
[Four 'Mysterious Treasure Chests' have been exchanged. Remaining points: 50!]
[Would you like to open the treasure chests?]
[Ding! Opening the Mysterious Treasure Chests]
[Congratulations to the host for receiving the following rewards: Blood Jade Ring, Phantom Sugar Beans, Mother-Son Bells, Soul-Capturing Pearl]
[Blood Jade Ring**: From the Northern Desert. When used with a special bell, it can determine and confirm the life or death of the wearer, and also sense danger.
[Phantom Sugar Beans**: Can allow the user to enter a state of phasing and invisibility. This lasts for fifteen minutes. The effect can be stopped and restarted at will during that time.
[Mother-Son Bells**: Used to transmit information. When the mother bell is rung, the son bell will emit a sound.
[Soul-Capturing Pearl**: Automatically attracts surrounding souls that have not yet dispersed, providing a resting place for the souls of the deceased, even if they are only remnants.
Hearing the system's broadcast.
Four items appeared in Qian Renjue's system space.
Three antique boxes, each containing a Blood Jade Ring, a Soul-Capturing Pearl, and Mother-Son Bells.
As for the Phantom Sugar Beans, they were in a pouch, containing three sugar beans.
Although this unboxing was basically all useful items.
But for Bibi Dong's upcoming trip to the City of Slaughter,
they were essentially useless.
Except for those three sugar beans containing spatial energy.
Perhaps they could help Bibi Dong quickly and smoothly pass the Hell Road.
As for the other things…
Right now, Qian Renjue held them in his hands, and they were practically useless.
Especially the Mother-Son Bells, which were the most useless of all!
Given the current situation…
The other three items were completely useless!
Qian Renjue closed his eyes in resignation, his expression as dark as ever.
I wish you all a pleasant life!
