Chapter 17: Growth“Finally done with the act, you little beast?!”“Crack!” The Giant Demon Rabbit’s front teeth shattered.“Ouch, my teeth!” The Giant Demon Rabbit cared more about its large front teeth than anything else in its life.Xiao Jinqi released his aura, instantly immobilizing the Giant Demon Rabbit. He then carefully picked up the little one, ended the Giant Demon Rabbit’s life with a single slash, and fed the little one some Spirit Liquid.“Wake up, little one.”“Daddy, wuwuwu, I was scared…”“I saw a talking rabbit that was hurt, and I wanted to save it. But then it suddenly grew as tall as a small hill and tried to eat me, wuwuwu.”“Remember, little one, don’t easily trust the words of strangers, whether they’re humans, Demonic Beasts, or other Spirit Beasts.”Xiao Xinglin, tears glistening in the corners of his eyes, sobbed, “Daddy, I understand.”“Also, the prerequisite for wanting to protect others is having the ability to protect yourself. Never blindly help others.”“But Daddy, are there other people in this world besides us?”“The world is vast. Besides us, there are thousands, tens of thousands, even hundreds of millions of people.”“I understand, little one.”“Then Daddy, what was that just now?” His eyes were still watery from crying.“Look, this is a Giant Demon Rabbit. Its size is hundreds of times that of an ordinary rabbit. This is a Demonic Beast. Demonic Beasts generally have low intelligence. There’s also another kind called Spirit Beasts, which are more intelligent and can form contracts with humans. Like the Spirit Beast Egg at home—once it hatches, it will become a Crimson Flame Fox, a Spirit Beast. Spirit Beasts can be contracted and become companions who fight alongside you. Of course, there are many other beings in the world, some with intelligence and some without, waiting for you to explore slowly.”“Yes, I want to grow up quickly and explore more unknown things.” At this moment, Yan Yuheng also appeared beside them. In truth, his divine sense had always been on the little one. He had detected the Giant Demon Rabbit the moment it appeared, but he chose not to intervene immediately. The little one had many protective weapons and shields that would activate upon harm. He wanted the little one to learn to sense danger and protect himself, rather than remain a fragile flower in a greenhouse.“Xing’er, there are many dangers in this world. Some will seek you out even if you don’t approach them. Cultivation and learning are the same—they not only make you stronger but also help you protect yourself.”“Of course, if you encounter problems you can’t solve on your own, you can always tell Father and Daddy. Also, Father will teach you the Sound Transmission Technique in the future. If you encounter danger next time, use it to contact us immediately, understand?”“Mhmm, I understand. I’ll study hard and protect Daddy and Father.”Xiao Jinqi gently stroked the little one’s soft hair. “You clever little thing!”“Here, your ball.”“Ah, my ball is back! That’s wonderful.” Xiao Jinqi and Yan Yuheng exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with warmth and affection.The three of them flew back on their swords. Yan Yuheng held his beloved from behind, while Xiao Jinqi carried the little one in front, using Spiritual Power to shield them from the howling wind.“Daddy, where’s my Spirit Beast Egg?”“In your little nest, of course.”“How much longer until it hatches?”“About three more months.”“If I give it more of my Spiritual Power, will it hatch faster?”"Don't worry, little one. The Spirit Beast inside will come out naturally once it has gathered enough strength. Just talk to it more every day."
