Talulah, I'm still a child.

Qin Liu's words were like a sharp arrow piercing the little fox's head. He was somewhat unhappy and glared at Qin Liu with puffed-out cheeks.

"Concentrated is the essence! And I'm still young, I can still grow taller."

Seeing Mei Xue almost jumping up and down in anger, Feng Di felt that she was so cute it was almost unbelievable. No wonder Chen Huijie liked this little fox so much. Feng Di couldn't help but reach out and poke Mei Xue's puffed-up cheek. Ouch... this feels so good.

"You just said you were bigger than bagpipes, and now you're saying you're smaller?"

Qin Liu rested her chin on her hand and looked at the little fox curiously. Although they had a deep bond, they had only known each other for a month. Mei Xue still had many secrets for Qin Liu.

"Gurgle... I am indeed older than all of you combined, but according to the lifespan of our race, I am only a month old."

The little fox was already 1.45 meters tall at just one month old. Mei Xue suddenly felt that her height was definitely promising. However, Horn was, after all, the daughter of Earl White Wolf, and had some understanding of the existence behind this land. Hearing Mei Xue say this, she suddenly began to doubt the identity of this little fox.

"Mei Xue, how old are you exactly?"

"I don't remember. My memory is very fragmented, but I still remember things from a thousand years ago. Anything before that is too messy. At least... well, Victoria wasn't called that back then."

Only at times like these would Mei Xue realize that she was an immortal being. A thousand years seemed like just yesterday and today, yet the world had changed beyond recognition, and dynasties rose and fell so quickly. Mei Xue still remembered the scene when the emperor of the Great Yan came to find her, and now it was already ten generations later. This was the ruthlessness of time.

"Sigh, Mei Xue, have you really lived that long?"

"But he looks like a complete child."

Bagpipe scratched her head, somewhat puzzled. In her eyes, Meixue was just a child. Qinliu believed Meixue, so she thought it was real. Horn, on the other hand, felt that the little fox was more and more mysterious.

"Because I am indeed a child, and if living a long time means becoming mature and steady, like a rigid old man, then life would be too boring, and I would become like Kal'tsit."

The above are also the words of the Doctor. Anyway, the Doctor always tells Mei Xue that living a long life is a good thing and a bad thing. If you have a bad mentality or too much pressure, you will become a stoic old woman like Kal'tsit. However, Mei Xue loses her memory every time she fulfills someone else's wish, which is equivalent to starting over. So far, there has been no case like Kal'tsit.

Who is Kal'tsit?

"So Rhodes Island seems to have been invited to the Terra Union Conference as well. That's impressive."

As someone with a rather simple mind, Bagpipe had only heard Horn and her teammates mention that this Terran Union Conference had a profound impact and great significance on the entire land. Although she didn't quite understand it, the fact that no faction from Victoria was invited was enough to prove how remarkable it was that Rhodes Island could participate in the conference.

"The Terran Union meeting does seem like it's going to cause quite a stir... But Bagpipe, you guys aren't here to catch up with me, are you?"

Qin Liu remembered that the Storm Commando had many missions recently, and coming to such a small place was indeed not in line with their operational route.

"Actually, we are in charge of investigating a case of missing weapons, but unfortunately we have no leads after investigating for so long."

Without concealing that Mei Xue was there, Feng Di openly revealed the purpose of her group. In fact, apart from her and Captain Horn, the rest of their companions were stationed nearby. The two of them only chose to come here to see if they could get any information from Qin Liu because they knew that Qin Liu was a local.

"Bagpipe, don't just blurt out this kind of information."

No matter what, Mei Xue and Cecilia can't be considered insiders. It would be terrible if this kind of information were leaked. Horn felt that it would be better to have this guy copy the military regulations a few more times when they got back. To put it nicely, Bagpipe is kind-hearted, but to put it bluntly, she's just not very bright. Unlike Mei Xue, who doesn't like to use her brain, Bagpipe doesn't have a brain at all.

"Oh, sorry, Captain, I misspoke."

"It's okay, Mei Xue and Cecilia won't tell anyone about this, right?"

Qinliu had deep trust in Meixue, and Cecilia was an obedient and sensible child, so there was no need to worry about them leaking information.

"Hmm, but the weapons are missing... Um, Sister Bagpipe, do you think someone stole them?"

Recalling the intelligence she had seen before, the little fox seemed to understand something, and her mind began to work again after a long time.

"We're in a hurry because we're worried that it will be stolen and used in dangerous places. The key issue is that the local garrison isn't cooperating with us."

The more Bagpipe talked, the more frustrated he became. The Storm Commando had a higher authority than the local garrison, yet these guys were so arrogant and uncooperative. It was too much. If the loss of weapons were reported, they would be in big trouble.

"Then why couldn't it be that the local garrison hid themselves?"

Mei Xue's words stunned Horn, Pipe, and Qin Liu. What? No, it seems that such a possibility is not impossible. This would explain why the local garrison was not cooperating with the investigation. Even if the matter was reported, they could explain that it was just a mistake in the previous count.

But what were their motives?

Horn subconsciously chose to believe Mei Xue's words, but quickly realized that something was wrong. The little fox was just saying it casually, so why did he subconsciously feel that it was true?

"Captain, I think Mei Xue makes a lot of sense. Shall we go and take a look?"

With a clear idea in mind, Fengdi felt much clearer-headed. She thought that when she presented the results of her investigation to that grumpy-faced officer, his expression would definitely be even more unpleasant. Humph, who told that guy to be so aggressive?

"In that case...we'll leave for now, and please don't tell anyone about tonight's events."

In any case, Mei Xue's idea was definitely worth a try. Horn and Bagpipe got up, and the latter also took a small cake with him.

"I'll take care of this. You go and take a shower first."

"Good~"

Mei Xue nodded, then took Cecilia's hand and walked towards the bathroom together. Wait a minute... Cecilia?!

Qin Liu suddenly noticed a blind spot, decisively put down her bowl and chopsticks, ran to the bathroom door and opened it, just in time to see Mei Xue taking out bath towels and shirts from her tail, while Cecilia was lying on the edge of the bathtub, curiously reaching out to poke the little ducks on the water.

"Wait, wait, are you two going to shower together?"

"correct."

Faced with Qin Liu's question, Mei Xue nodded sincerely. This wasn't the first time this had happened. In fact, during their journey, they slept in each other's arms, and taking a bath was a regular occurrence. Because Cecilia's hair was so long, Mei Xue often had to help her with it.

"That won't do. I'll help Cecilia wash the dishes. Meixue, you can clear the table."

"it is good……"

"I want my brother to help me wash."

Before the little fox could agree, Cecilia disagreed first. It was true that the little angel was very sensible, but it was impossible for her not to be willful. Compared to Qin Liu, whom she was still unfamiliar with, she was more unwilling to leave Mei Xue. In fact, after spending this time together, she didn't even want Mei Xue to leave her sight.

"..."

Faced with Qin Liu's helpless expression, Mei Xue could only shake his head. He doted on his younger sister, and besides, the little fox and the little angel didn't seem to mind. Qin Liu could only rub his head helplessly.

"Then I'll help you two wash together."

To avoid any unpleasant incidents, Qinliu felt it would be better to keep an eye on things, even though she had just finished washing herself.

Meanwhile, in Laterano, the brief rest allowed Amiya to fully relax both physically and mentally. The two deep-sea hunters, Grandia and Ulpian, argued for a long time about "who can represent Agor," and in the end, Grandia won because she still had Specter and Skadi on her side.

Lateran is a great place. The local customs and culture are very different from the outside world. The people are optimistic and positive. Although there are occasional small explosions, no one can stop this place from being a paradise.

"If this whole land were a paradise like this, how wonderful that would be."

Amiya couldn't help but sigh. Sometimes she would think to herself, if everyone could understand each other like Sakta did, how much less conflict and entanglement there would be in the world.

"That would make the world a better place, wouldn't it? Amiya, thank you for your hard work today."

Theresa, who was residing in Amiya's body, said this. Today, she had taken Amiya's body around for quite a while. Laterano was really a wonderful place. She couldn't help but wish that there were more such wonderful places. How wonderful it would be if the Sarkaz had their own paradise.

"I heard that there is some connection between Sarkaz and Sakota. I could vaguely sense something while I was shopping today."

As the Demon Lord of the Sarkaz, Amiya is able to establish some kind of connection with the Sarkaz, but today she discovered that she also has such an intuitive connection with the Sarkaz. She may have overlooked it before when she was on Rhodes Island because it was too weak.

Just as you thought, there is indeed a connection between the Sarkaz and the Sarkaz, or rather, the Sarkaz themselves are a branch that betrayed the Sarkaz a thousand years ago. Although we don't know why, they have become what they are today.

The Sarkaz take pride in piercing the Sarkaz's head, while the Sarkaz see killing the Sarkaz as their mission. But how many people know that the Sarkaz and Sarkaz were originally one family a thousand years ago?

[Do you remember? A child born to a Sarkaz and another race will never be a Sarkaz, but Cecilia's is different, because her father is a Sarkaz.]

If you said this to any ordinary Sarkaz or Sarkaz, they would take it as the worst joke. How could the millennia-old conflict between the two sides be resolved so easily? Amiya suddenly realized why the Sarkaz were not invited to this meeting: because the Sarkaz tribe could no longer unite and had no real leader.

"What decisions will this meeting make this time?"

Side Story: Mei Xue's Daughters

Why did I ever think of having a daughter?

The warm lighting and elegant music in the bar instantly relaxed everyone. Talulah rested her chin on her hand, gently swirling the red wine in her glass. Her face was slightly flushed, clearly indicating that she was a little tipsy.

However, when people get drunk, they become impulsive and spill out all their grievances. Just thinking about her rebellious daughter made Talulah's heart ache with anger.

"Even if you don't want it, it won't work. Mei Xue is a unique individual. In a way, these children are all her alter egos. What else could they be but her daughters?"

Mostima, who was in charge of mixing the drinks, poured another glass for Talulah. Ever since her daughter grew up, Talulah had come here every weekend to drink her fill before leaving, which could be considered a small way of venting her emotions and complaints. After all, being a mother is very stressful.

"That's even more wrong. It's clearly a bit of power that Mei Xue gave away. Shouldn't it be more like him? Then it's even less likely that we wouldn't get along."

Talulah pondered that Mei Xue and she had such a deep relationship, and since her daughter was another incarnation of him, shouldn't they also have a deep relationship? So what was going on with this rebellious daughter?

"Who knows? Anyway, Mei Xue always praises them for being obedient and sensible."

Warfarin spread her hands and shook her head helplessly. Suddenly, she felt that it was a wise decision not to have children so early. As a Blood Demon, she had a long lifespan and was still relatively young. Living a long time made her less concerned about time. Besides, everyone was now Mei Xue's family. As long as she didn't do anything reckless, her lifespan was guaranteed to be at least five figures.

So apart from marrying Mei Xue, Hua Falin said she wasn't in a hurry for anything else. Moreover, seeing how much trouble everyone had gone through, she actually didn't really want children anymore.

"Obey my ass! Behave your way out of this world!"

While drinking Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor), Nian couldn't help but start making a fuss. Her daughter was the restless type, always thinking about dismantling and rebuilding various things in the house, and she was always pestering Meixue. Even when she was about to get intimate with the little fox, the girl would barge in.

"My daughter was fine when she was little, but now she's getting along with me more and more...tsk, she even secretly reads those inappropriate novels about Mei Xue!"

"Pfft...cough..."

While brainstorming her thoughts, Aphrodite couldn't help but spit out the wine in her mouth. She quickly wiped the wet parts of her manuscript, knowing best where those inappropriate novels about Mei Xue came from. She even had the original manuscripts hidden under her pillow. However, the most detailed parts were all personally edited by the Doctor; she hadn't touched them. She certainly didn't write herself as the female lead and then portray the weak little fox as... cough cough, she couldn't think about it anymore. Today, Mei Xue was accompanying Feng Wan and Qin Liu.

"She was looking at those things...could it be..."

Mostima glanced at the flustered Aphrodite and sensed something was wrong, while Exusiai seemed completely unconcerned.

"Tch, it's just reading some pornographic novels. It's so much better than what I have. If you don't like it, we can switch."

Hearing Exusiai say that, and thinking about who her daughter was, Talulah suddenly felt that although her daughter was a bit rebellious, she wasn't such a bad person. At least Su Mengyun didn't have the guts to rob a bank, smuggle weapons, or even join the underworld, let alone have the guts to have a physical passion shootout with her own mother.

No, Su Mengyun still has the guts to fight with her own mother.

"Actually, both of your daughters are quite good. Although they may be going through a rebellious phase now, they will definitely become more sensible in the future."

Surtr licked the ice cream off her hand. Compared to Su Mengyun and Remy, her daughter was undoubtedly much less troublesome. Although she inherited some of her mother's arrogant personality, the two were indeed cut from the same mold and were more like best sisters.

"Indeed, that's true compared to Miss Vina's daughter. I heard that just a couple of days ago, Princess Victoria was planning a rebellion while her mother was away, and it almost turned into treason."

Chen Huijie tidied her hair slightly and put down her wine glass as she spoke.

"...This is truly unprecedented and will never be repeated."

Compared to others, Talulah felt much better. She looked at her good sister, Chen Huijie, who was now a senior advisor in Lungmen. In two years, when Wei Yanwu retired, she, the princess of Dayan, would naturally take over all affairs of Lungmen. Hoshiguma was the director of the Lungmen Guard Bureau, and Swire was preparing to take over Chen Huijie's advisor position in the future.

"Huijie, are you in such a hurry to leave?"

"Well, I can't keep letting Aunt Wenyue take care of my child. It just so happens that there's a holiday coming up, and Meixue and I have made plans for the three of us to go on a trip."

"Then remember to say hello to Xiaoyue for me."

Chen Mengyue, also known as Su Mengyue, is Chen Huijie's only daughter. It is said that grandparents love their grandchildren more. When Wei Yanwu taught Chen Huijie the Chixiao Sword Technique, he would practice moves with her, almost as if he wanted to kill her. However, when facing his granddaughter Chen Mengyue, he was more kind and gentle than ever before. Even when his beard was being pulled, he would still laugh happily.

Wen Yue is even more different. She and Wei Yanwu couldn't have children before because of the political situation, and now that they are older, they have no plans for that. Chen Huijie is busy with work and can't take care of the child, so she is happy to retire and stay at home to play with this granddaughter. She is now ten years old and still like this.
