Chapter 1005: Returning to Chongque City
What Li Xiaofei had not expected was that Li Anyi was also unwilling to leave.
"I want to stay here with Mom." The little girl’s voice was firm and resolute. "Maybe the world outside has beautiful sights, fun things to do, and delicious food, but right now, I just want to be by my mother’s side."
In that moment, Li Xiaofei suddenly felt like his daughter actually understood everything. She knew far more than her age would suggest. The care and guidance Si Kongxue had given her over the years had clearly been a great success.
"Alright," nodded Li Xiaofei.
Si Kongxue’s expression grew anxious. She seemed as though she still wanted to persuade them otherwise.
But Li Xiaofei said, "Don’t worry. I’ll be back soon."
The Ancestor of Wisdom’s disciples from the Ancestor Court had chosen to place the mother and daughter here because it was related to evolution. Li Xiaofei had been thinking a lot ever since confirming their safety. Since Si Kongxue couldn’t leave this place, perhaps it was best for Li Anyi to stay with her.
Li Xiaofei had a strong intuition. He couldn’t shake the feeling that leaving the mother and daughter here might actually be better than taking them away. What if they could one day follow in the footsteps of the ancient evolved races and achieve a higher form of life? Besides, Si Kongxue truly couldn’t leave the valley.
"Dad, I have a younger sister, don’t I?" Li Anyi suddenly asked.
"An elder sister," Li Xiaofei replied.
"Hmph, she’s my little sister," said Li Anyi, remaining stubborn on that point.
Li Xiaofei didn’t argue with her. Instead, he turned to look at Si Kongxue. There was a questioning look in her eyes.
