Chapter 51: A Father and Daughter Meet Again 2
Li Xiaojun left, escorted by Caifeng as she flew away.
Caifeng successfully brought Li Xiaojun back to the Empress’s palace via the teleportation array.
“Your Majesty, I have brought the person.”
In the Empress’s palace, Caifeng presented Li Xiaojun to Liu Hongxia.
Liu Hongxia sat high on the dragon throne, exuding an air of authority.
Below, Caifeng knelt on one knee.
Li Xiaojun stood still, unmoved.
After all, no father kneels before his daughter.
“Rise!”
“Caifeng, you may leave,” Liu Hongxia waved her hand.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Caifeng exited, leaving only Li Xiaojun and Liu Hongxia in the great hall.
Liu Hongxia watched Li Xiaojun with a playful look.
Li Xiaojun gazed at Liu Hongxia with loving eyes.
No matter what, the girl before him was his daughter.
As for the fact that she was the great emperor controlling the Myriad Tribes of the Human Race, Li Xiaojun felt no fear.
Does a father need to feel fear before his daughter?
In the palace, both father and daughter stared at each other in silence for a long time.
Finally, it was Li Xiaojun who broke the silence.
He asked Liu Hongxia, “May I ask who your mother is?”
Hearing this, Liu Hongxia pondered for a moment before responding lightly, “My mother is Liu Ruoge.”
“What? You are the daughter of Third Elder?”
Upon hearing Liu Ruoge’s name, Li Xiaojun was taken aback.
He never expected that he had a connection with Third Elder Liu Ruoge.
But soon, he recalled a woman.
This woman had been with him three times and also possessed top-grade spirit roots.
In the first two instances, due to the Immortal Gate providing fifty million spirit stones, he forcibly enhanced the child’s spirit roots to the level of Immortal spirit roots.
In the last instance, without spirit stones being paid, he could only strengthen it to the level of Yang spirit roots.
So, that woman must have been Third Elder Liu Ruoge in disguise.
Goodness! He never imagined that Third Elder Liu Ruoge, who was also his daughter Li Yuting’s teacher, had also coveted his charm.
Goodness, Third Elder, you covet my charm and do it secretly.
Upon learning that his daughter was the child of Third Elder Liu Ruoge, Li Xiaojun quickly deduced who she was.
“You are Liu Hongxia, right?” Li Xiaojun asked Liu Hongxia.
Liu Hongxia nodded in response.
She was not surprised that Li Xiaojun could guess her identity.
The name Hongxia Empress Liu Hongxia could easily be found online.
While other empresses hid their names, she did not keep her name a secret.
So, with just the surname Liu, Li Xiaojun could figure out she was the Hongxia Empress.
“May I ask what titles my little Eight Li Yuchun and little Nine Li Yuqiu hold now?” Li Xiaojun inquired of Liu Hongxia.
Liu Hongxia answered, “Li Yuchun is the Ziwei Great Emperor, and Li Yuqiu is the Ziyao Empress.”
A smile spread across Li Xiaojun’s face upon hearing this.
He asked Liu Hongxia, “Could you please let my little Eight and…”
“No.”
Before Li Xiaojun could finish his sentence, Liu Hongxia directly interrupted him.
“Um, why not?” Li Xiaojun asked, confused.
“There is no reason.” Liu Hongxia spoke in a detached tone.
“Well, I am your father, can’t you…”
“No.”
“Then what do you want?”
Liu Hongxia did not answer. Instead, she asked Li Xiaojun, “I’m curious, a hundred thousand years ago, you were killed by the Beast King on your way back from Fanjingshan, right? How did you come back to life? Also, you are just an ordinary mortal; how have you lived for a hundred thousand years?”
Thinking for a moment, Li Xiaojun replied, “I did die a hundred thousand years ago. I don’t know how I came back to life. As soon as I revived, a hundred thousand years passed, and I am still unsure of what happened.”
Liu Hongxia was quite surprised by Li Xiaojun’s words.
She had been observing him with her divine sense and sensed that he did not seem to be lying.
Could it be that her estranged father really did come back to life after a hundred thousand years?
Perhaps it was a matter of his physique.
A hundred thousand years ago, many speculated that Li Xiaojun possessed a mysterious constitution that could absorb the energy of spirit stones to nurture spirit root offspring.
Could this constitution also allow him to die and come back to life?
If Li Xiaojun suddenly revived, it could explain many things.
If he had been alive all this time, with his daughters developing so well, he could not have waited a hundred thousand years to find a way to reach out.
“Daughter, could you…”
“Cannot.”
“Ugh!”
