Chapter 623: White Cicada Scaled Beast (II)
The sound of shattering glass rang out just as Li Xuanfeng entered. The white robe floated to the ground, and the beast vanished entirely, leaving only the infant, now cradled in Li Chengliao's arms.
Li Xuanxuan hurried forward, unable to contain himself. Li Chengliao stared blankly at the child in his arms, his hands trembling. When Li Xuanxuan looked closer, he met a pair of golden, amber-like eyes.
Within the infant's gaze, golden rings nested inside one another, deep and dark, emanating a chilling and regal aura that sent shivers through their hearts.
"Gasp…!" The two of them gasped simultaneously.
Meanwhile, Li Xuanfeng's expression darkened as he gripped the longbow behind him. The bowstring vibrated violently, letting out sharp, piercing sounds as he growled, "I am Li Xuanfeng. May I ask which senior… has chosen to entrust themselves to my descendant?"
His words reverberated through the room, shaking the very cups and plates until they trembled, as though they might shatter under the pressure. Yet the infant only pursed its lips without answering.
After waiting briefly, Li Xuanfeng turned to signal for the others to retreat. He stepped forward, meeting the child's clear, innocent gaze. After a moment of hesitation, he said in a low voice, "Chengliao, take him to Mount Qingdu."
After all, it was his own child. Li Chengliao quickly wrapped the baby in the white robe, worry evident on his face as he glanced toward his weak wife on the bed. Li Xuanxuan noticed his gaze and understood immediately, saying, "I will take care of things here."
The two of them flew off together. Li Xuanfeng remained vigilant throughout the journey, his thoughts racing, If the baby were a Buddhist cultivator, they wouldn't look like this. They must be a Daoist cultivator… At least of the Purple Mansion Realm… It couldn't possibly be a Golden Core Realm.
