“Daddy?” Zhuo Hua turned around and looked at Li, wondering how he had became his father.

Standing near to Zhuo Hua, Nan Chen suddenly clenched his fists, ‘Daddy?’

“Yes, grandpa said, my daddy is very powerful, so the powerful one must be my daddy!” Li recalled his grandpa’s words. ‘This is what Grandpa had said. He’s always right.’

“Do you know what Daddy means?”

“I know, it means a very powerful person.”

Zhuo Hua was rendered speechless, “Your Dad must be very powerful, but it is not necessarily that Dad is powerful. Do you know what I mean?”

“I know, you are very powerful, so you are my daddy.” Li answered firmly.

“You can’t just call a random person daddy.” Zhuo Hua felt a bit worried. If this had been the belief that Li adopted, he would need to call every powerful people he met daddy, wouldn’t he?

“I know. My grandpa told me that there can only be one daddy, so you are the one. Other people will not be more powerful than you.”

Zhuo Hua didn’t know how to explain it to Li for he himself was an inarticulate man. What Li had said made him speechless.

“Li.” When Zhuo Hua was thinking about how to explain it to Li, he saw Nan Chen squating down in front of the kid, “Daddy means…”

Nan Chen slowly explained it to Li. He didn’t want others to have a close relationship with Zhuo Hua, which made him very uncomfortable, although he didn’t understand what kind of feeling it was.

“Then…  Li is a kid without daddy?” Tears welled up his eyes.

Finally, his eyes still couldn’t hold the tears, and he shed floods of tears, “Wah… I want my daddy. I want to find my daddy… Wah…” Li wiped his tears but was still blubbering.

Seeing that Li crying out loud, Zhuo Hua froze there and then he gave Nan Chen a look.

Nan Chen did not say anything after making Li cry. He looked at the two people leisurely. He was now curious to see what Zhuo Hua would do with the kid.

“Wah…” Li continued crying.

“Wah…”

“I want daddy…”

Zhuo Hua really didn’t know what to do, so he picked up Li, holding him in his arms and flew towards the Sunset Peak.

Feeling the breeze blowing his face, Li opened his eyes which were crying a minute ago. He looked at the rapidly passing scenery below and forgot crying.

Nan Chen looked at the two people who had left, and his eyes gradually deepened.

On the Sunset peak

Here was the highest peak in the Cultivation World, where people could see the most stunning sunrise and sunset.

Zhuo Hua put Li on the ground of the peak, looked at the slowly setting sun, and was amazed by the beautiful scenery in front of him.

“Li.”

Li turned his head and looked at Zhuo Hua.

“Do you want Dad?” Zhuo Hua seemed to have made a major decision.

Hearing this, Li nodded, “Yes!”

“Then, let me be your daddy.”

“Really?”

“Hmm.”

“But…” Li somehow hesitated for he remembered what just Nan Chen had told him.

“I can be your dad until you find him.” Zhuo Hua couldn’t bear to see Li feel sad, just as how he treated Nan Chen.

“Daddy!” Knowing that Zhuo Hua became his dad, Li called him happily.

Zhuo Hua then held Li back to the Bamboo Peak.

Nan Chen was still in the same place. When he saw the two coming back, he stepped forward and said, “Master, there is a clue about the case that the sects were exterminated.”
