Aunt Wang had known Si Fan for several years and was well aware of his stubborn temperament.

He reluctantly reached out and took the steamed bun, eating it in small bites, his wrinkled face full of relief.

Seeing that Si Fan hadn't eaten, she took one out of the oil paper package and handed it to Si Fan.

Si Fan didn't reach out to take it; he simply shook his head in silence.

Seemingly remembering something, she turned around and looked around. When she saw Xiao Xuan standing at the door, she was delighted, pursed her lips, and gave a faint smile.

Following Si Fan's gaze, Aunt Wang saw the peerless immortal standing at the door.

Aunt Wang tentatively asked, "This...fairy?"

When Aunt Wang asked her question, Xiao Xuan was nodding to her. In the eyes of Aunt Wang and Si Fan, this was interpreted as Xiao Xuan responding to Aunt Wang's question.

When Xiao Xuan came to his senses, Aunt Wang had already excitedly gotten out of bed and knelt in front of him.

With tears in his eyes, he pleaded, "Fairy, could you please help me see if Xiao Fan has any spiritual roots and if he can cultivate immortality?"

Xiao Xuan nodded without thinking.

"How could a chosen one in the cultivation world fail to cultivate immortality? Wouldn't that mean the story would end right from the start?" Xiao Xuan thought to himself.

As he had expected, Si Fan did possess spiritual roots, but they were not ordinary spiritual roots, which was why the Si family had not discovered them.

A cold, mechanical voice rang out, "Ding, host 006 is detected to be confused. The system's 'clarification' function is automatically activated."

"Ding, system is searching."

"Ding, system query complete, answer as follows: Host 006, Si Fan's spiritual root attribute is Devouring, which is related to his hidden bloodline."

Xiao Xuan tentatively asked in his mind, "Then what bloodline does he have?"

silence......

Xiao Xuan waited for a while but didn't receive a reply. He realized that this problem had exceeded his authority again.

When Aunt Wang saw Xiao Xuan nod, she was so excited that she kept wiping away tears and grabbed Si Fan's hand, wanting Si Fan to kneel down before Xiao Xuan.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Xuan hurriedly and clumsily pulled the person up.

Aunt Wang held Si Fan's hand and looked at Xiao Xuan with eager eyes, "Fairy, can you take Si Fan with you?"

"This child is just a little quiet, but he is very well-behaved, kind-hearted, and hardworking."

"Being a servant to the fairy is fine, as long as he's fed, that's enough. This child has a hard life..."

Xiao Xuan looked at Si Fan, somewhat embarrassed, as he had never taken care of a child before.

Moreover, he himself has not yet found a place to stay.

Just as he was hesitating about whether to agree, Si Ye led Prime Minister Si and his entourage directly into the courtyard.

Among the group, the Prime Minister of the Ministry of Personnel had the highest cultivation level, at the early stage of the Nascent Soul stage. The guards following behind him included those at the Nascent Soul stage and those at the Golden Core stage.

Xiao Xuan, the young man standing next to the Prime Minister, recognized him; he was one of the people who had bullied the male protagonist on the bridge earlier.

Seeing that Prime Minister Si and his entourage were approaching menacingly, Aunt Wang warily shielded Si Fan behind her, knowing she only had a few days left to live.

They were not afraid of Prime Minister Si and his party.

He was focused on how to stall Prime Minister Si and his men, giving Fairy and Xiao Fan time to escape.

Unfortunately, she was ultimately too weak.

Under the lingering influence of the Prime Minister, they couldn't even move.

Xiao Xuan: "System."

A cold, mechanical voice rang out, "Ding, host 006 is facing a predicament. System auxiliary functions are activated."

"Ding, system is searching."

"Ding, system query completed, answer as follows: The system barrier can protect mortals from the pressure of high-level cultivators."

"Ding, system barrier activated."

As soon as the system finished speaking, Aunt Wang and Si Fan felt their breathing become smooth again.

Seeing this, Xiao Xuan turned around, took Aunt Wang's hand, and helped her to lie down on the bed.

Si Fan supported Aunt Wang on the other side and followed her to the bedside.

After settling Aunt Wang and Si Fan in, Xiao Xuan turned to look at Prime Minister Si.

Seeing that Xiao Xuan's expression was calm, the Prime Minister released his full aura towards Xiao Xuan.

Xiao Xuan glanced at Prime Minister Si indifferently, unaffected in the slightest; his Holy Body constitution made him immune to all forms of pressure.

Upon seeing this, the Prime Minister was greatly alarmed.

This child is only fourteen or fifteen years old, yet he was able to withstand the pressure of the Nascent Soul stage cultivator. He must either possess a great treasure or have exceptional talent. Either way, he is no ordinary person.

A glint of greed flashed in Prime Minister Si's eyes, but it vanished in an instant.

He wouldn't act rashly before knowing Xiao Xuan's true strength and background.
