Many descendants

But as soon as Madam Ming opened the barrier, Manman immediately rushed out.

"I'm going to find my mother, Grandma, don't worry. Thank you for taking care of my brothers." After saying that, Manman teleported away, heading towards the direction where the demonic energy was most concentrated.

Ziqi held a golden egg in her hand, while a huge golden dragon roared in the sky, deterring the demons from easily approaching the palace.

"Son, your guardian beast is much more useful than you," Ziqi said with a light laugh.

Su Yan's departure was within his expectations, and he even hoped she would leave. Only if she lived well could the children have a safety net, no matter what dangers they faced.

If she were here, it would actually make them feel constrained, as if she had a Achilles' heel that they had to protect at any time.

Zong Sili sent a message: "The entire Divine Beast Academy will be temporarily evacuated. We're coming right now."

"Your Uncle Zong and Grape are coming." Ziqi stroked Xiao Ba.

Ming Linyuan and Pei Xuan together slay the demons.

"Old Pei, your strength has increased significantly! You've reached the Saint Rank, haven't you?"

"Yes, how about you?"

"I almost did. If I had known, I would have just focused on cultivation after ascending to heaven."

"The Demon Lord is your father now. Why don't you go to his side? Maybe you can live longer. By the way, what about your brother, Wen Jin?"

“He fled with his son as soon as the demons attacked the immortal realm.”

"They went to the Demon Lord's side?"

"Not necessarily. That guy seems gentle, but he's actually quite unpredictable. He might be strong, but he's backed down now. He might be weak, but he was once the king of the Asura Realm."

"Perhaps your brother is more inclined towards the Demon Lord, whose nature is darkness, and who is a shadow even when standing in the light."

"Never mind him, these beasts are more powerful than those on the Dark Continent."

……

The Beast Realm, Continent 9908.

Wen Jin brought Xiao Fengning to Wanfang Hostel.

Due to the demonic invasion, the inn was long deserted. Bai Kaixin locked all the doors and returned to Liuhua Town.

Wen Jin carried Xiao Fengning into the backyard.

The barrier he set up here is still intact, and the small building and pond are still undamaged.

Wen Jin put Xiao Fengning down.

Xiao Fengning remained silent, like an abandoned child.

Wen Jin had a hard time explaining, "...I don't have a mother, but I still have a father."

“Without a mother, there is no home. Without a home, what’s the point of having a father?” Xiao Fengning hugged his knees and sat on a roughly carved lotus stone stool, which he and his mother had carved together.

Wen Jin was speechless, but that was the truth.

Even if Su Yan isn't with them, knowing where she is means they can find her anytime, which feels almost the same as having her by their side.

But now, she can't be found anywhere, not even in the heavens or the earth.

"...Logically, you should be able to find your mother by following the marks, so why can't you find her?"

"Unless we die or are seriously injured, there's no chance we'll find Mother," Xiao Fengning snorted.

"You're saying you can find your mother even though you're seriously injured?" Wen Jin narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at Xiao Fengning.

Xiao Fengning nodded, "Mother prepared substitute talismans for us. Sister Manman, Sister Yuxuan, Sister Shishi, and Brother Faser, they all died before, and Mother reborn them. Especially Sister Manman, she died twice. Otherwise, Mother would keep such a close eye on Sister Manman, for fear that she would be in danger again."

As he spoke, Xiao Fengning stood up again. "Maybe Sister Manman is already dead. I need to go find her and see if her body has been summoned away by Mother."

“We don’t need to go looking for Manman, let’s give it a try.” Wen Jin looked at her son.

"You...you're going to kill your son!" Xiao Fengning looked terrified, then his cute, bright eyes welled up with tears. "I knew you were an unreliable father. You're already complaining that I'm a burden? You're nothing like Uncle Zi. Even though we're not his children, he treats us like his own."

As she spoke, she took off her clothes.

In the end, only a little yellow duck's underwear was left, its chubby body all fleshy. "You want the little sister in Mommy's belly? You favor girls over boys! I'm going to find Mommy!"

Xiao Fengning pinched his chubby legs, then patted his bottom, "Come on, hit here!"

Wen Jin: "..."

How could he have given birth to such a stubborn and unruly son!

No, it has nothing to do with him, it must be because he took after Yan Yan when she was little!

……

Ragnarok.

Su Yan, clad in divine-grade armor, stood amidst a pile of monster corpses, holding a massive, blood-stained longsword in her hand.

Soon those monsters turned into experience points.

[Host, another substitute talisman has been injured.] Xiao Mei's voice rang out.

[Who is it this time?] Su Yan planted her sword in the ground, removed her armor, and teleported back to the player inn.

There are a total of twenty-four substitute talismans. The first one to be injured was Manman, then Xiao Jiu, Xiao Shiwu, Xiao Shiqi, Xiao Miqi, Xiao Qi, and now Xiao Fengning.

These children all know about the Substitute Talisman and want to come over.

[Huh? Host, the substitute talisman hasn't improved since Xiao Fengning was injured.]

【What?】 Su Yan frowned immediately.

The other children were quickly treated after being injured, and the crisis was resolved before she even had to call them.

000 stated that the mandatory protection mechanism for cubs can only be triggered when the cubs are severely injured, near death, or die.

As the substitute talisman gradually increased in color from a tiny bit to eight-tenths red, and finally reached 99%, Su Yan heard Xiao Mei's voice: [Activated Forced Protection Summoning for Infants, recalling a dying infant, deducting 14 billion birth points!]

In the system space, Xiao Fengning appeared, his entire body pale!

But the next moment, without Su Yan saying anything, Xiao Mei had already begun treating Xiao Fengning...

The summoning cost 14 billion, while restoring Xiao Fengning to full health only cost 100. [No wonder summoning cards cost so many points!]

"Yes, host, should we overwrite Xiao Fengning's memories of being injured?" Xiao Mei asked.

Su Yan replied, "No need, he did it on purpose."

[Was it intentional?] Xiaomei examined Xiaofengning's injuries again. [It was just near death due to blood loss. Looking at the wound on his buttocks, it was a precise puncture of an artery.]

[Wen Jin did it.] Su Yan moved Xiao Fengning out of the space, held her heavy son in her arms, and sighed softly, "Although I wanted you to come back, I didn't want you to do it this way."

……

Su Yan made a steaming hot pot of bone broth.

The aroma waking Xiao Fengning from his sleep, who was starving.

Upon seeing Su Yan, the little one rubbed his eyes vigorously, "Have I really come to Mother's side?"

“Yes. But you need to tell your mother first whether it was your father who hurt you?” Su Yan asked.

Xiao Fengning nodded immediately, "That's right, it's him! My dad doesn't love me at all, unlike Uncle Zi. He's not even as good as Uncle Zi. Mom, change my surname? I don't want to take my dad's surname anymore."

Su Yan was amused by him, "I'm afraid that won't work."

"Why?" Xiao Fengning automatically washed up and prepared to eat.

Looking at the little boy's sensible and independent appearance, Su Yan replied, "Because you didn't originally take your father's surname, you took your mother's surname, Su. Su Yunxiao, your mother hopes that Xiao Fengning can be happy every day."

"Thank you, Mother." Little Fengning snuggled into Su Yan's arms and acted coquettishly.

Su Yan hugged him, not expecting him to be the first one to arrive.

Wen Jin is the most protective of her children, but she is also the most ruthless in her methods.
