As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1740: Eight Qimen Immortal Seeds Achieve Body Sanctification, the Underworld Welcomes a Newcomer: The Monster Diting
Previously on As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality...
From the other side of the gateway, a tall, slim shadowy form emerged unhurriedly.
Its four canine feet lightly touched the earth in a crossed-legged style, while a glossy ebony hound advanced with a graceful feline stride typically exclusive to cats, radiating an unbeatable vibe of boldness.
Within those obsidian orbs, akin to black dates, gleamed a vivid glint—a mischievous glimmer, like meeting again after ages apart.
As though declaring, Little Li, it's been ages!
Donning the Netherworld Ox Demon mask, Li Che’s gaze brightened right away, the sternness and weight on his expression fading completely.
At first, Li Che believed the massive dark bull from the City Lord’s Mansion had foreseen his scheme to gather the Twelve Demon Gods and intended to strike ahead!
To his surprise, it turned out to be the long-absent Lord Dog!
Earlier, during the journey from the Divine Capital back to Qianyuan Taoist City, the boss and Lord Dog had accompanied him. The boss mentioned starting a eatery in Qi Tian City, and now Li Che was here.
Yet, upon arriving in Qi Tian City, he had employed the Heaven and Earth chessboard for a search, but spotted no sign of the boss or Lord Dog.
Feeling a bit let down, he never imagined Lord Dog would show up here himself.As Lord Dog stepped into the yard, the gateway shut right behind it.
Li Che removed the Bull Demon mask, showing a wide grin, advanced a couple of paces toward Lord Dog, and opened his arms like for an embrace.
However, Lord Dog gave him a contemptuous eye-roll.
What’s that hug about?
You acting like you’re Xi Xi?
"Where’s the boss? He mentioned opening a restaurant in Qi Tian City. Where exactly?"
Li Che inquired with interest.
Lord Dog surely comprehended his speech, but if it chose to respond was a different issue.
Regarding Lord Dog’s ability to converse... Li Che figured a entity capable of smacking a Temple God to oblivion wouldn’t lack the power of speech.
Lord Dog roamed the yard and promptly pursed its canine lips in discontent.
It glanced at Li Che and rolled its eyes once more, seeming to convey, Where is Xi Xi?
Why stare at you? Lord Dog yearns to spot Xi Xi!
Li Che’s extended arms sparked with power, his Martial Immortal Golden Body boomed with thunderous sounds, and potent Qi-Blood surged forth like vapor.
Lord Dog rolled its eyes, appearing to imply, You’ve had a minor upgrade and now you’re flaunting it, yet if my real form shows, you’ll be terrified out of your wits!
Li Che pondered briefly, then gripped his five fingers to summon Xi Xi, who was practicing alongside Jin Taixui, Yun E, and the rest in the yard, straight from Mo City Fengdu.
Xi Xi materialized in a stupor, her cute large eyes whirling like a tiny sphere in foggy bewilderment.
"Daddy?"
Xi Xi gazed at Li Che in confusion, seemingly puzzled about leaving her training spot in the yard so abruptly.
"Woof—!"
An enthusiastic yelp from Lord Dog snapped Xi Xi out of her daze!
"Wow—Gou!"
Upon spotting Lord Dog, Xi Xi’s and Lord Dog’s date-like eyes burst with delight.
They rushed toward one another, smashing into a joyful tangle.
Xi Xi twirled while clutching Lord Dog, her little feet joyfully pounding the earth like performing lively kicks.
Li Che observed from the side, filled with joy, his spirits lifting high.
Why, you ask?
Since Lord Dog and the boss had at last shown up; this greatly secured Xi Xi’s protection in Qi Tian City.
Not even the Black Bull Demon God Venerable could endanger Xi Xi anymore.
Although the precise reason escaped him, the boss and Lord Dog instilled this assurance in Li Che.
For sure, Xi Xi’s well-being was now guaranteed...
Li Che even pondered simply dropping Xi Xi off at the boss’s eatery in Qi Tian City; it ought to be extremely secure.
While he mulled this over, it appeared Xi Xi’s exchange with Lord Dog had wrapped up.
Mostly, Xi Xi posed the queries, and Lord Dog cheerfully swished its tail, answering via barks, somehow syncing perfectly even without human words.
Li Che deemed it fascinating, believing his girl could grasp canine speech!
The gateway parted wide, and Lord Dog gleefully pranced ahead on its paws.
"Daddy, come on, let’s go after it! Gou mentioned he’ll lead us to the boss’s restaurant! We can grab some tasty treats!"
Xi Xi bubbled with thrill, saliva dripping freely from her mouth.
It had been ages since tasting the boss’s dishes, and she truly longed for them!
Noticing her enthusiasm, Li Che refrained from halting her and trailed Lord Dog from the yard, Xi Xi tagging along.
The Heaven and Earth chessboard shielded them, blocking any sensing.
Given their location in Qi Tian City, Li Che had to stay vigilant.
Fortunately, the Night Bat Demon God now served as his reliable ally, unlikely to divulge their position, even with time equal to three incense sticks burning to alert others.
Nevertheless, Qi Tian City sprawled enormously, and a random run-in with the Black Bull Demon God Venerable might spark needless issues.
As they proceeded, Li Che quickly saw his worries were needless.
Within the lane behind his yard, roughly a hundred steps deeper, Li Che at last glimpsed the eagerly awaited restaurant.
Beneath soft amber lanterns, it cast a warm radiance resembling evening sunset tones.
Before the restaurant, a figure in white apparel lounged in a swaying seat, legs folded, a smoke stick hanging from his lips, azure fumes curling upward and fading into the sky.
