Bank of the Universe Novel - Chapter 157
Chapter 157: Call Me Daddy
The old priest and Xiaoya continued talking, “Now, your grandfather needs to recover slowly. When are the both of you planning to return to Eternal Land?”
Xiaoya looked towards her grandfather.
“Of course, the faster the better. If we can return soon, Xiaoya’s mother will be saved.” Tian Yun said right away.
Xiaoya nodded her head too.
“Great! Tomorrow, you will follow me and I will protect you while you head towards the teleportation formation.” The old priest’s eyes lit up and he spoke right away.
As long as Xiaoya returned to Eternal Land and laid down the world coordinates, they would be able to cross worlds.
Since the old priest was able to reach stage 17 of Countless Sands Realm in a place like Ancient Desolate Land, then if he headed to Eternal Land, wouldn’t he soar?
“I have something to say to Xiaoya alone. You can just keep yourself warm here alone.” The old priest pulled Xiaoya and walked out.
Tian Yun looked on in worry, but he didn’t say anything.
Xiaoya gave a sweet smile, “There is no need to worry. Both Grandfather priest and Granddad Deity are nice people and won’t harm me.”
Tian Yun nodded his head. He looked on as both the old priest and Xiaoya walked out of the Mountain God Temple before disappearing.
….
The Bank of the Universe!
The old priest brought Xiaoya back.
Li Xiandao looked at them with the mask on their faces.
“Hello, Granddad Deity.” Xiaoya saw Li Xiandao and shouted respectfully.
Li Xiandao’s gaze was one of helplessness. He waved his hands. “Hello, is your grandfather fine?”
Xiaoya said happily, “Grandfather just needs to rest for a while and there should be nothing wrong with him.”
Li Xiandao nodded his head in satisfaction and looked towards the old priest, “Did it feel fun to go all out?”
The old priest said awkwardly, “It was alright.”
“Although cultivation isn’t a constant fight, if you give in to others in every situation, as time goes on, something will go wrong with your heart.” Li Xiandao said calmly.
There was something wrong with the old priest before. He always felt like he wasn’t strong. Although he was at stage 17, he cultivated the Constant Youth Celestial Technique and had no early-stage combat strength at all. The old priest felt that he still had no combat strength even when he reached Countless Sands Realm.
Only when he easily killed the fiver-colored giant snake did he realize that he was so amazing.
To a certain extent, his heart was actually changing.
Although he was still timid, he wasn’t a total coward like before.
“Thank you, Master!” Thankful, the old priest bowed. He knew that Li Xiandao was trying very hard to help him change this personality flaw.
Li Xiandao accepted his thanks but didn’t worry about him. He looked at Xiaoya and said warmly, “Granddad Deity has saved your grandfather, so will you help me do something?”
Li Xiandao didn’t use the contract to demand Xiaoya to do anything, but he was using their relationship to convince her.
That was because he felt that Xiaoya was really cute too.
A twin-ponytailed, cute loli helped to ignite Li Xiandao’s feminine side.
In a serious tone, Xiaoya said to Li Xiandao, “Granddad Deity, please instruct me. I will try my best to help you complete it.”
Li Xiandao smiled and touched Xiaoya’s ponytail. She was such a cute little girl.
“Granddad Deity, why is your hand so beautiful and young?” Xiaoya said in shock.
Li Xiandao explained, “That is because I am a deity, so my hand is really nice and young.”
“Oh-oh, I thought that it was because Granddad Deity was young and I was wrong to call you granddad. Phew, phew, I wasn’t wrong.” Xiaoya patted her small chest.
Li Xiandao’s face froze as he couldn’t take back what he just said?
He wanted Xiaoya to call her Brother Deity, not Granddad Deity.
But when he saw how Xiaoya was behaving, Li Xiandao couldn’t be bothered to make her change.
Since she was calling him granddad, then so be it!
“Xiaoya, keep this thing.” Li Xiandao took out a stone from the space in front of him. It was a mix of white and black with numerous carvings drawn on it. One could clearly see that it was a Star Map.
“What is this?” Xiaoya held it with her arms.
She asked curiously.
“These are coordinates. You can close your eyes and retract them into your body. Then, when you close your eyes and use your heart to summon them, you can take them out once more.” Li Xiandao smiled.
Xiaoya tried several times, and as expected, it worked. She looked at Li Xiandao emotionally, “Granddad Deity, why are you giving me this?”
Li Xiandao squatted down. His gold mask was right in front of Xiaoya’s face.
In the past, Xiaoya might have really feared Li Xiandao’s gold mask, but she didn’t fear him at all now. Granddad Deity was a good person who treated him really well.
Moreover, this mask was so cool. It looked really majestic when someone so strong like Granddad Deity wore such a mask.
Xiaoya stared at Li Xiandao’s mask and sized him up. He was really curious about what Li Xiandao’s face would look like.
An old man?
A handsome, old man?
A bald, old man?
A disfigured, old man?
….
Many thoughts appeared in Xiaoya’s little head.
If Li Xiandao knew, he would have told him that behind the mask was an extremely handsome face.
It was a face that made girls’ legs weak when they saw it.
A face that gave people with cravings.
A face that could rank among the top in the Nine Skies and Ten Lands even the Celestial World.
A face that would make numerous girls single for the rest of their lives.
Unfortunately, Li Xiandao didn’t know what Xiaoya was thinking about.
He said solemnly to her, “Remember, when you return to Eternal Land and confirm there is no one around, no beasts and the entire place is empty, take this out. Place it on the ground and inject some of your energy into it to activate it.”
Shocked, Xiaoya listened intently and asked, “So simple?”
Li Xiandao nodded his head and said, “It is just that simple.”
“Are you confident that you can do it?” Li Xiandao asked.
“Yes.” Xiaoya nodded her head.
Li Xiandao reached out and touched Xiaoya’s hair, “If you complete this, in the future, Granddad Deity will take care of you in Eternal Land and no one will be able to bully you.”
Xiaoya smiled sweetly. “Thank you, Granddad Deity.”
“Okay, keep the coordinates and head out with your Grandfather priest. He will send the two of you to the teleportation formation.” Li Xiandao stood up and said.
“Goodbye, Granddad Deity!” Xiaoya waved her hands.
Li Xiandao nodded and said, “Goodbye, the next time we meet will be in Eternal Land.”
Xiaoya nodded and held Grandfather priest’s hand to leave the Bank of the Universe together.
After they left, Li Xiandao just looked on quietly.
“I didn’t think that our Granddad Deity would be so loving.” Seven walked over slowly and said.
“You shouldn’t call me that.” Li Xiandao reminded.
“Then, what should you call me?” Seven asked curiously.
Li Xiandao thought about it and said seriously, “Looking at her, I suddenly want a daughter. You can call me daddy.”
Seven’s face turned black as she stared at Li Xiandao and gritted her snow-white teeth.
