When Tu Hong saw Xiao Bai looking at him like this, he wanted to say something.

But he found that even though he opened his mouth, the words just wouldn’t come out.

When he saw how Xiao Bai and Lin Fan had acted, he felt that they were more like father and son than he was with Xiao Bai. He felt disappointment and a bit of jealousy towards Lin Fan when he saw this.

However, in the end, there was no resentment at all and there was even a bit of silent acceptance when he saw this.

After all, he couldn’t blame anyone that the situation was like this.

It was his own fault for not being able to protect his wife and his unborn child back then.

He was the one that had caused this entire problem by being useless.

There was no excuse for his behaviour and the only thing that he could do was ask for forgiveness for his uselessness, but to ask his child something like this…It wasn’t hard because he was thinking of his pride, rather he didn’t want to put this on Xiao Bai.

Instead of thinking for himself, he was thinking what kind of effect this would have on Xiao Bai.

Even though he had just learned that he had a child, he was already thinking on his behalf as a parent.

To a certain extent, this kind of thinking was admirable.

It was just too bad that his cowardice completely outclassed that, so there wasn’t any sympathy or admiration that was earned from this.

When Lin Fan saw how afraid and how much he was hesitating, he couldn’t help giving a sigh and shaking his head. He was filled with a bit of disappointment towards Tu Hong since he never thought that he would be this much of a coward.

Since Tu Hong wouldn’t take the first step, the only other choice was to have Xiao Bai take the first step.

Lin Fan looked down at Xiao Bai and said, “Why don’t you introduce yourself?”

Xiao Bai revealed a bit of fear in his eyes when he heard this, but seeing the encouraging way that Lin Fan looked at him, he gave a nod in the end.

Xiao Bai came out of Lin Fan’s arms and jumped down onto the ground.

When he landed, there was a puff of smoke before Xiao Bai suddenly changed into human form. There wasn’t a puff of smoke whenever the other pets took human form, but there was one when Xiao Bai changed into a human.

That was because of the transforming scenes in the shows that Momonga had been showing him.

In a way, Momonga had also been a bad influence on him…

When this cute little boy appeared, everyone’s hearts couldn’t help melting from his tiny stature, his big wide eyes, and his fair skin. The only part that didn’t seem like the features of a little boy was the white hair that was on his head.

This was white hair that had brown stripes in them, the only part of him that gave a resemblance to the fierce White Tiger Race. The rest of Xiao Bai just looked like a little cute boy.

When Tu Hong saw him though, his eyes couldn’t help trembling.

That was because all he could see in Xiao Bai was…his Yu’er.

Seeing him like this, all kinds of memories appeared in his mind and he couldn’t help staring off into space.

Xiao Bai walked over to Tu Hong while he was like this and said in a clear, but shaky voice, “My name is Xiao Bai, what’s your name?”

Angela who was watching on the side couldn’t help shaking when she saw this.

With the look that she had on her face, it looked like she wanted to run out and hug Xiao Bai. It looked like she wanted to shower him with praise, but she held herself back in the end.

Since she knew that this was an important moment for Xiao Bai and it was not her place to interfere.

When Xiao Bai spoke to him, Tu Hong was pulled out of his daze and he looked down at the little figure in front of him. He could see a bit of a tremble coming from that small figure which tugged on his heartstrings.

But he calmed himself down and said with a faint smile, “My name is Tu Hong, but you can call me…”

He couldn’t bring himself to say the final word because…he didn’t feel like he deserved to say it.

Xiao Bai couldn’t help tilting his head and looking at Tu Hong with a confused look when he heard this. He felt like there was something off about Tu Hong, but he couldn’t tell what it was.

In the end, Xiao Bai reached his hand out and patted Tu Hong’s leg as he said, “Uncle, don’t be sad.”

Tu Hong was taken aback when he heard this and his heart felt like it was being ripped apart.

Being called ‘uncle’ by his son like this really was a powerful blow to his heart…

But at the same time, he couldn’t help being proud of his son for being a kind and caring person. It seemed like the person who had been taking care of him the entire time had taught him properly and took good care of him.

He looked over at Lin Fan and revealed a grateful look.

Lin Fan just revealed a faint smile before looking over at Angela.𝑜𝑣𝓁xt.𝒞𝓞𝐌

Seeing this, Tu Hong also looked over at Angela and gave her a grateful look.

However, he found that Angela was currently glaring at him and it was clear that she had hostility in her eyes.

He didn’t understand why she was looking at him like this, but there was nothing he could do if she did this.

So he turned back to Xiao Bai and said, “Un, thank you.”

Xiao Bai revealed a wide smile before running back to Lin Fan. He looked up at him as if he was looking for praise from him.

Lin Fan couldn’t help giving a bitter laugh deep down, but he revealed a faint smile and patted Xiao Bai on the head before lifting him up again.

There was a moment of silence that followed before Tu Hong looked at Lin Fan and asked, “Can you please tell me what my Yu’er’s final moments were like?”

Lin Fan was surprised that Tu Hong would ask something like this, but he gave a nod and told him the story of how he had met Xiao Bai.

By the end of the story, Tu Hong’s face was as cold as stone, but his eyes revealed everything. The pain, the blame, the hatred, all of the different emotions in his eyes made it very clear what he was thinking.

He took a long time to calm down before saying, “Thank you for taking care of Xiao Bai and for taking revenge on my Yu’er and our other children.”

Lin Fan gave a nod of affirmation when he heard this.

After this, there wasn’t much else that needed to be discussed since he had already told Tu Hong everything that he knew. As for what had happened to Xiao Bai’s mother before the Inheritance Realm, that wasn’t something that he knew.

So he finally turned his attention to the elders who had been patiently waiting.

Seeing that it was finally their turn, they immediately went over and tried to appeal to Xiao Bai in their own way.

The moment that their spiritual senses had swept over Xiao Bai, they had already figured out that he was the true descendant. Even if the bloodline was a bit weak right now, they knew that he possessed the ancestral bloodline and it would awaken in time.

So they wanted to find a way to tie him to the White Tiger Race while they still could.

After all, they knew that Xiao Bai would keep traveling with Lin Fan.

That was what had been written in the prophecy left behind by their ancestor and they didn’t plan on going against that.

But there was still plenty that they had to give Xiao Bai before he left.

When the elders of the other three sacred beast races saw this, they couldn’t help revealing bitter smiles since they had gone through the same thing. But they knew that it was impossible for Lin Fan to stay here, so they would be disappointed in the end, just like they had been.

In the end, all they did was scare Xiao Bai back into Lin Fan’s arms when they surrounded him like this.

They did their best to try to cheer Xiao Bai up and get him to trust them, but a bunch of old men naturally found it hard to entertain a kid like this.

So the elders had no choice but to move back with disappointed looks on their faces.

Tu Hong, who had been silently watching all of this happen, suddenly stood up.

Everyone in the room couldn’t help looking at him with a strange and confused look, as they wondered what he was planning on doing.

Tu Hong looked at Lin Fan and asked, “Can I ask you to take care of Xiao Bai for me?”

Lin Fan was surprised, but he said with a nod, “Xiao Bai is like my child, I’ll take care of him no matter what.”

Tu Hong gave a satisfied nod before saying, “I’ll be leaving the White Tiger Race for a bit. There is something that I need to take care of.”
