Once she had arrived in Dragonquarry, Xiao Lan could already sense that her power was lacking. That was why whenever she did not have to work for the Shifters Faction, she would go to the Hundred-Ghost Forest.
She would then slaughter her way from the outside of the forest into the center.
Other than killing the monsters, she also needed to raise her power and think of a way to control all the spirit-type monsters within Dragonquarry.
She was also working very hard to help Si-Si to improve her mastery over her Six Paths of Reincarnation domain.
Currently, Si-Si had already formed the Demesne of Hell, and she had opened up the Hell Path. She needed to open the other five paths.
The Hundred-Ghost Forest was where Xiao Lan was training Si-Si so that she could form her Hungry Ghost Path because it was only here where she could gain the Laws of Hungry Ghosts, and form the Ghost Demesne. She could then open up the Hungry Ghost Path.
The Hungry Ghost Path did not mean the ghost of hunger but was referred to the power to consume all the ghosts and spirits in the world. It was the path walked by the rulers of ghosts and spirits, and they would never know hunger.
As soon as she had opened up the Hungry Ghost Path, Si-Si could then rule over all the spirit-type monsters in the world.
At this time, Si-Si was fighting a Level 300 Late Heavenly Saint level Ghost King with a scythe that was several times larger than her.
Her short figure was already covered with wounds as she cried, begging her mother who was watching next to her, “Mommy, help me! I cannot beat it, I am tired…”
Xiao Lan looked at Si-Si, the persistence in her eyes wavering. In Divine Dominion, those without power would be ruled. She was worried sick when she remembered that she could not help Jiang Feng. She was worried that he would forget about her, forget about Si-Si.
When that thought crossed her mind, she gritted her teeth and said to Si-Si with tearful eyes, “Do not be afraid, Si-Si. You can defeat it.”
Si-Si slashed her scythe without any directive as she retreated, crying. She then said to Xiao Lan pitifully, “Mommy, can I use the Six Paths?”
“No, if you use the Six-Paths you will not be able to obtain the Laws from them!” Xiao Lan said to Si-Si sternly.
“Oh…”
Si-Si wiped her tears away with her sleeve and bit her lips as she pounced toward the terrifying Ghost King that was dozens of meters high with the scythe in her little hand.
…
When Jiang Feng saw this moment, he was stunned.
He thought that Si-Si was the daughter of one of Xiao Lan’s followers. He did not expect that Xiao Lan was Si-Si’s mother.
When he suddenly remembered the few times that he had spent time with Xiao Lan, he ended up with a shocking conclusion.
“No wonder Si-Si looks like me and Xiao Lan, it must be…”
He made a guess but then shook his head. “No, impossible. The update on children only appeared after that. How could she have her back then? Can it be because of system error or because of Xiao Lan’s special physique?” He gave it a thought and he concluded that such a possibility existed.
The thought that Si-Si was Xiao Lan’s daughter with another man did cross his mind, but then he remembered Xiao Lan’s personality and how she had been looking at him.
He knew that there was no other possibility!
Otherwise, Si-Si would not look like him.
The moment that he knew Si-Si was her daughter, and when he saw her crying, Jiang Feng quickly flew over and slammed the Ghost King away with his fist.
His appearance was a surprise to Xiao Lan and Si-Si.
Especially Xiao Lan. When she saw him, even her eyes were filled with anxiety. She stuttered, “Shifter… Shifter Emperor. Why… Why are you here?”
“Teacher!” When Si-Si saw Jiang Feng, she was obviously quite excited as she ran toward Jiang Feng.
Jiang Feng then held Si-Si in his arms and then walked toward Xiao Lan with a stern look on his face. “Are you hiding something from me?”
Xiao Lan looked away as she denied, “No… Nothing.”
“Si-Si is my daughter, right?” Jiang Feng asked Xiao Lan.
“No…” Xiao Lan was going to refute impulsively, but when she saw the stern look on Jiang Feng’s face, she let out a long sigh before nodding.
“Mommy? The teacher is my daddy?” Si-Si blinked as she looked at Xiao Lan.
“Child, I am so sorry for not telling you the truth all this while,” Xiao Lan apologized as she looked at Si-Si.
“Teehee! Si-Si has a daddy too! And he is the Shifter Emperor! I am so happy!” Si-Si was very innocent. Perhaps because she had yet to mature, she did not know how to lie. She only knew that she suddenly had a daddy, and if her peers asked her about it, she could then give them a strong answer and say that her daddy was the Shifter Emperor!
Everyone in Divine Dominion, including their descendants, knew who the Shifter Emperor was. He was the faith of the Shifters, the great hero of the Shifters Faction.
She would be honored to say that out loud.
Even children had self-esteem. Who would not want to have parents? Who would not wish that their parents were heroes? Si-Si was no different!
Looking at Xiao Lan who was quite devastated, Jiang Feng then held her in his arms and said to her lightly, “I’m sorry!”
Xiao Lan felt that everything was worth it!
To think that there was a woman who gave birth to his child and raised her up on her own. Meanwhile, he did not bear any responsibility of a father. He felt ashamed.
“No… It was nothing. I didn’t want to cause any problems for you. The more powerful you become, so did your enemies. I am only hoping that once Si-Si and I become stronger, you would actually look at us. That is all we need,” Xiao Lan said as she held Jiang Feng in her arms.
She felt that everything she did was worth it as she felt the warm embrace.
“Si-Si is still too young. Don’t let her do anything so dangerous anymore. I’m here now,” Jiang Feng said as she patted Xiao Lan’s shoulder.
“Alright.” Xiao Lan nodded.
It was at this time that Si-Si looked at him stubbornly and said to Jiang Feng, “Daddy, Mommy asked me to do this for my own good. I want to become stronger! I want to fight with you, Daddy! I will work even harder!”
She then jumped out of Jiang Feng’s arm and then attacked the Ghost King that was struck away.
When she was not using the Six-Paths of Reincarnation, Si-Si was a shy but stubborn girl.
He knew that she was a strong little girl when she had always completed everything he asked her to do when they were at the Divine Dominion School.
Perhaps it was because she was excited, or because she wanted to prove something, Si-Si was no longer as weak and gentle as before. Instead, she was filled with the will to fight. Each time she slashed with her giant scythe, it would create a swooshing sound. And each time that sound appeared, an attack would slice on the Ghost King.
“Si-Si, when you fight an enemy, you must find the enemy’s weak point. You must then attack that weak point as quickly as possible so that you can temporarily weaken it. If you use this chance to attack with your most powerful strike, you can then kill your enemy in one fell swoop!” Jiang Feng said with a smile and taught her some fighting skills as he looked at her stubborn daughter.
Si-Si was also very smart. She gave up on attacking, and kept on circling the Ghost King, looking for its weaknesses.
After two minutes, Si-Si’s eyes became sharp as her figure and her giant scythe disappeared from where she was standing. In the next moment, the scythe then slashed at the Ghost King’s head. Blue flames leaked out from the Ghost King’s head as it screamed out in pain.
Si-Si then suddenly jumped up using this chance, and she sliced once more using her scythe at where the blue flames were leaking.
Next, the Ghost King let out a terrifying scream as it transformed into a bolt of black light and entered Si-Si’s body.
The black light was the Law of Ghost from within the Ghost King.
Once she had absorbed the Law of Ghost, Si-Si then walked toward Jiang Feng with a smile while carrying the giant scythe on her shoulder.
