He's a minor cannon fodder character who transmigrates into a novel and cultivates immortality,

Prime Minister Si's mind raced, and in an instant, a near-perfect smile appeared on his face. "Fellow Daoist, I heard from Ye'er that you took Xiao Fan away in the street. May I ask what brings you here?"

Xiao Xuan couldn't speak, so he drew four large characters in the air with his finger: "Destined to meet, I like you."

Si Fan was naturally intelligent, and he would secretly eavesdrop outside the classroom while his teacher was instructing his brothers and sisters.

He recognizes all these characters.

The golden lettering, like the sun, illuminated Si Fan's silent and frozen heart.

When Prime Minister Si and Si Ye's group saw Xiao Xuan's reply, they were stunned.

Since birth, Si Fan's face has been covered with a large black birthmark, which covers most of his face. It is not only dark in color, but also uneven.

The lines, varying in depth, sometimes appear to move, and sometimes even resemble animal scales.

He was rejected by the Prime Minister from birth, and even his own mother never looked at him.

If you happen to run into them in the city, they'll immediately start cursing and saying, "Monster, monster, get lost, stay away from me!"

Si Fan suffered ridicule and experienced the coldness of human nature from a young age.

The only source of warmth for him was Aunt Wang, that unfortunate woman.

Now, he has met the second person in his life who has given him warmth, even though he doesn't even know the other person's name yet.

However, at this moment, the child already regarded the other person as someone as important as Aunt Wang.

After regaining his senses, Prime Minister Si said bluntly, "You can't take him away. He is my son, Si Chen's child. I don't agree to you taking him away."

Xiao Xuan: "..."

A cold, mechanical voice sounded, "Ding, congratulations 006 host, Si Fan's favorability towards the host is detected to be 80. You are awarded one chance to draw a prize. Would you like to draw?"

Xiao Xuan: "Yes."

System: "Ding, congratulations to host 006, you have obtained three Rank 9 protective magic artifacts, Heart-Protecting Stones."

"Ding, the instructions are as follows: The green one is the mother stone, and it is recommended that host 006 keep it for himself. The two white ones are daughter stones, and it is recommended that host 006 give one to Si Fan."

Xiao Xuan: "What is the use of this?"

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 completed, the answer is as follows: Purpose: life-saving, usage: blood oath, function: after oath, it will automatically protect the user in times of danger, and the user has no cultivation level restrictions."

"For mortals, it can withstand attacks from those below the Nascent Soul stage."

"The protective ability is related to the user's own cultivation level. The higher the user's cultivation level, the stronger the protective ability of the Heart-Protecting Stone."

"When the host holding the child stone encounters a life-or-death crisis, the host holding the mother stone will sense it and, relying on the bond between the heart-protecting stones, will be teleported to each other's side."

"It could be that the host holding the mother stone is teleported to the side of the host holding the child stone, or the host holding the mother stone can directly summon the host holding the child stone to their side."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xuan understood.

This thing is used to protect the male protagonist and to build a bridge between themselves and the male protagonist, so that they can better protect him before he grows up.

Thinking of this, Xiao Xuan turned around and walked to Si Fan's side, squatted down, and leveled his gaze with the other's.

Si Fan's eyes were dark and deep, carrying a hint of deep-seated unease.

Xiao Xuan took out the Heart-Protecting Stone from his bosom.

Divine things are naturally obscured.

The Prime Minister and his entourage present did not recognize the extraordinary nature of the Heart-Protecting Stone.

Xiao Xuan lightly tapped his fingertip, and a drop of blood welled up from Si Fan's fingertip, dripping onto the white heart-protecting stone.

The next moment, the Heart-Protecting Stone transformed into a white streak of light and flew into Si Fan's body.

Only then did everyone realize that the inconspicuous little stone was actually a magical artifact that could recognize its owner.
