Sheng Xiao asked, “Did you give it to him?”
“The battle is imminent. After Prime Emperor Zhengyang recovers, we will have a higher chance of winning.” The decisive battle at the Broken Cliff will be a life or death battle. They needed Prime Emperor Zhengyang’s help.
“Yes.” Sheng Xiao continued, “The Yin family is holding a funeral for the deceased people tonight. I have to go there. I’ll get going first.”
When Sheng Xiao reached the door of the study, he suddenly realized that there was a spiritual wall in front of him. The spiritual wall blocked his way. Sheng Xiao turned to look at Sheng Lingfeng, who was behind the desk. He was puzzled. “Father? What are you doing?”
Sheng Lingfeng looked up at him and suddenly said, “That child called Kong Qing is a super monster, right?”
Sheng Xiao’s eyes widened. “Father, why do you ask?”
Sheng Lingfeng took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer. He tore open the membrane and took out two cigarettes. Sheng Lingfeng lit his own cigarette and threw the other cigarette to Sheng Xiao.
Sheng Xiao wasn’t addicted to cigarettes. He would only smoke one when he was annoyed.
He held the cigarette under his nose and sniffed it before biting it. He lit it and took a light puff before walking to the windowsill.
Sheng Xiao listened to Sheng Lingfeng in silence.
Sheng Lingfeng said, “Lin Jiansheng isn’t the kind of person who would have an affair with a woman. If he really wanted to do it, illegitimate children would have been everywhere. He went to the Broken Cliff
to enter seclusion and came back with a child. That child has a huge appetite, but he hasn’t grown taller in the past six months…”
This was very suspicious.
Sheng Lingfeng exhaled a mouthful of smoke. He held the cigarette between his fingers and looked at Sheng Xiao. “That child came from the Broken Cliff. He’s not human, right?”
Sheng Xiao blinked. His curly eyelashes fluttered as he blinked.
He didn’t say anything. He took a deep puff of the cigarette and blew it out the open window. A butterfly on the peach tree danced and left him. Sheng Xiao stared at the butterfly that was running away in panic. He heard Sheng Lingfeng ask, “That child is that super monster, right?”
Sheng Xiao closed his eyes.

No wonder his mother always said that his father was a sly old fox. Sheng Xiao didn’t answer the question directly. He turned to look at Sheng Lingfeng and suddenly said, “Father, you have the answer in your heart, but you still gave the Ice Crystal Thread away. Do you want that child to die?”
Sheng Lingfeng emphasized, “That’s not a child. It’s a demon.”
Sheng Xiao retorted, “My mother isn’t a human, but a demon too.”
Sheng Lingfeng narrowed his eyes and asked Sheng Xiao unhappily, “Are you condemning me?”
Sheng Xiao said nothing.
Sheng Lingfeng suddenly smiled again. He pressed the unfinished cigarette into the ashtray and lowered his head. “When Caro Xiangfu came to see me today, he mentioned something.”
Sheng Xiao asked, “What is it?”
“He said, It’s a pity that Saint Ling Xiao went to Broken Cliff to enter seclusion. Otherwise, with his ability, he would definitely be able to get rid of that Demon Fetus easily. However, Saint Ling Xiao dotes on that child of his a lot. He takes him away wherever he goes and he doesn’t even go to school. Those who know will say that he dotes on the child. Those who don’t know will think that his child is a dangerous creature that will cause trouble if he isn’t by his side.”
The corners of Sheng Lingfeng’s mouth twitched. “These are his words.”
Sheng Xiao’s expression finally changed. “Is Caro Xiangfu suspecting Kong Qing?”
“Yes. That child has never grown tall or chubby. How can he not be suspicious? However, Caro Xiangfu clearly has a suspect, but he didn’t tell his ancestor about this. It can be seen that he and Prime Emperor Zhengyang aren’t on good terms.”
After saying that, Sheng Lingfeng waved at Sheng Xiao. “Get lost. Your mother should rest.”
Sheng Xiao glanced at the dark green snake on Sheng Lingfeng’s wrist. The corners of his mouth twitched as he walked away.
Sheng Lingfeng coughed and said unhappily, “Rude kid, why didn’t you say goodbye to your mother before you left?”
Sheng Xiao stopped and said to the little snake, “Mom, I’ll get going first.”
Sheng Lingfeng pressed the little snake’s head with a finger and nodded. Then, he imitated Lan Yao’s tone. “Get lost. I’m annoyed with you.”
Sheng Xiao smiled and left.

Caro Xiangfu quickly gathered all the materials needed to forge the Demon Nurturing Bead and prepared three sets before handing them to Grantling.
Grantling spent two days in the small building and damaged two sets of raw materials before she successfully forged the Demon Nurturing Pearl. With a tired expression, she opened the door and
