I was born a god, the son of the Demon Lord.

Shen Jiuyuan gently patted the little girl's head, then found a safe compromise:

"Father can give you the Demon King Cauldron, but the evil energy accumulated in it is too heavy and fierce, not suitable for you. Father will purify the evil energy and cleanse it for you before giving it to you, okay?"

Xu Nanyi immediately nodded obediently, not greedy at all.

She was already overjoyed to have acquired the first treasure.

No rush, take your time.

Today, let's get the Demon King's Cauldron first, and then collect the other items one by one. Once we have all five, we'll be able to get Sister Tong back.

She was simple-minded and couldn't keep secrets. As they talked, her parents unknowingly extracted most of her thoughts about her emotions, needs, and purposes.

After they finished chatting, the family of four lay down side by side, and the two little ones soon began to breathe evenly and fell into a deep sleep.

Only Xu Yuan and Shen Jiuyuan were wide awake.

Shen Jiuyuan couldn't help but speak softly first, with a hint of weak survival instinct.

"Well... it wasn't that I insisted on giving the Demon King's Cauldron to Little Phoenix; she asked for it herself."

Xu Yuan glanced at him indifferently and didn't argue with him.

"You should pick out a magic weapon for Xiaozhou that is similar to the Demon King's Cauldron as soon as possible. He doesn't fight or compete for it, but as his father, you can't ignore his opportunities."

Shen Jiuyuan immediately replied, "Yes, I know, everything is ready."

After a few seconds of silence, Xu Yuan's gaze darkened slightly. "Don't you feel that the invisible aura surrounding Xiao Yi... is very similar to that one from heaven?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Jiuyuan recalled the mysterious master who was always blindfolded and had white hair that reached his shoulders.

In terms of seniority, that person could be considered half a mentor to him and Xu Yuan.

The Demon King Cauldron and the Sunset Divine Bow, two treasures that guarded the region, were personally given to them by that person.

Looking back now...

The five treasures that the little phoenix wants to collect... each one has an intricate connection with that person.

Shen Jiuyuan murmured, "The aura doesn't seem right, but the arrangement and purpose of these five treasures... it's his work."

"If it really was him who secretly instructed us... we have no reason not to give them these five things."

Xu Yuan nodded slightly, agreeing with his statement.

Since it was that person's arrangement and guidance, then everything is preordained and is the child's destiny.

She then asked, "Of the remaining two items, the Primordial Chaos Heavenly Disc and the Dreamlike Water Mirror, which should we go to first?"

Without a second thought, Shen Jiuyuan answered decisively, "Take the Hunyuan Heavenly Disc first."

"We know that old thief Tianxing from the Tower of Babel well, so it's easier to kill someone we know."

Xu Yuan felt relieved by his words, and was already feeling slightly sleepy and about to close her eyes and fall asleep.

at this time………

"I wish... thank you."

After he finished speaking, no one responded.

Shen Jiuyuan waited for a long time but received no response, so he assumed that she had fallen asleep from exhaustion.

Ke Xuyuan breathed a long sigh of relief.

--fine.

She always carries a recording stone with her.

……

The next day, the sky was bright and clear.

The family of four packed their bags and set off, intending to first head to the Tower of Babel to find the old acquaintance who was in charge of the Hunyuan Heavenly Disk.

As Shen Jiuyuan said, it's easier to talk to acquaintances and you can "take advantage of them" to save yourself a lot of trouble.

In addition, the two children are still young and it is not advisable for them to travel to dangerous secret realms. It is safest to stop in ordinary cities along the way and proceed slowly.

Halfway there, a magnificent city came into view, with smoke rising from the buildings and a bustling crowd.

Xu Yuan decided to slow down and suggested that they first enter the city to stay, have a good hot meal for the two children, and then continue their journey.

The family strolled into the city and found the most bustling and best-reputed restaurant in town.

All four possessed exceptionally handsome and elegant appearances, and even when they tried to conceal their brilliance, their imposing presence was undeniable.

Beside him were two little children, one with a graceful and elegant demeanor, the other with a handsome and refined appearance. Even at such a young age, their features were outstanding and exquisite.

The four walked into the restaurant side by side, and all the diners subconsciously turned their heads to look at them, even their breathing became a little lighter.

The waiter, with his keen eye, immediately recognized that these four guests were either wealthy or of high status and possessed extraordinary bearing. He quickly and attentively stepped forward, bowed, and respectfully led them to the private room on the third floor.

As they walked up to the third floor, Shen Jiuyuan casually asked, "Are there any private rooms with windows?"

The waiter looked embarrassed and quickly explained with a smile:

"We are so sorry to disappoint you! We are fully booked today, and all the window seats were booked early this morning. There are no seats available."

Xu Nanyi's eyes darkened slightly, her expression showing a hint of disappointment.

She liked the window seat and loved watching the everyday life, the traffic and people below.

Seeing her daughter's slight disappointment, Xu Yuan immediately said, "It's alright, we don't need a private room. We can just find a quiet spot by the window in the lobby."

The waiter quickly responded and led the four of them to a private seat by the window at the innermost part of the hall.

This place is far from the hustle and bustle, well-ventilated, bright, and has a wide view—just right.

After taking their seats, Xu Yuan skillfully ordered a table full of dishes.

All the dishes I chose were sweet and sour, soft and tender, refreshing and palatable, and suitable for children's tastes.

Before long, the dishes were served one after another, steaming hot and fragrant.

Shen Jiuyuan sat to the side, constantly piling the two little ones' bowls to the brim.

But just as the atmosphere was peaceful and relaxed, Shen Jiuyuan suddenly stopped picking up food and noticed something was wrong beside him.

Two children clung to the windowsill outside the third-floor window. First, a thin little hand reached out, and then two tiny heads popped out, staring intently at the steaming, plentiful meal on the table.

Wu Qiyue had not eaten for a whole month. Relying on her innate divination skills, she immediately determined that Xu Yuan was the most benevolent person and that asking him for food would have the highest probability of success.

She tilted her dirty little face up and timidly spoke to Xu Yuan.

"Pretty lady, could you treat us to dinner?"

"You...you get down right now!"

Xu Nanyi was startled by what she saw. She quickly pushed aside the table by the window and pulled the two children outside into the restaurant. She never expected that the two children would risk climbing a third-floor window just to get a meal.

Shen Jiuyuan looked at the two people in front of him, who were about the same age as his own two children, and whose clothes were tattered...

He called over the waiter and instructed him to set up another table of food next door, with all expenses charged to his table.

We had drunk half the wine and were halfway through our meal.

Two subtle, coded incantations echoed from the next table…

The boy lowered his voice and used a secret technique to transmit his message: "Sister Yue, they carry a strong aura of demons. Could we ask them to lead us to the Demon Emperor's daughter?"

While swallowing large mouthfuls of food, Wu Qiyue replied in a secret sorcery.

"You silly stone, just stating your purpose directly will only expose our ulterior motives. Who would go looking for the Demon Emperor's daughter for no reason?"

Little Stone: "So how do we bring it up?"

Wu Qiyue: "Just say that the Demon Emperor is our relative. As long as she sees Lord You, she definitely won't deny that I'm the most powerful genius in the history of the Wu Clan!"

Xu Nanyi: ...?
