Qin Chen rubbed Mo Nianli’s head. “You’re quite clever, kid.”
Mo Nianli scratched his head and smiled foolishly. “It’s all thanks to Uncle Qin’s good teachings.”
“That little flatterer,” Fang Mu Ling chuckled, finding Mo Nianli incredibly adorable.
“Godmother, I’m not a flatterer,” Mo Nianli said earnestly. “Everything I said just now came straight from the heart. You don’t know, from the very first time I met Uncle Qin, I felt incredibly close to him, like he was my long-lost father. That made my mind much sharper.”
“If it weren’t for my mother not acknowledging it, I would even suspect Uncle Qin is my real dad.”
Mo Nianli spoke seriously, his expression sincere.
Qin Chen: “...”
An image of the Chi Yan Demon Lord’s original appearance flashed in his mind, and he shuddered. Being Mo Nianli’s biological father? That’s... better not.
“Godmother?” Fang Mu Ling’s focus was clearly different, looking at Mo Nianli with confusion.
“Yes,” Mo Nianli blinked his eyes. “Uncle Qin is my dad, and you’re Uncle Qin’s wife. Naturally, I should call you godmother. I can’t very well call you auntie, right?”
“I’m Qin Chen’s wife?”
Upon hearing this, Fang Mu Ling’s face instantly flushed red. She secretly glanced at Qin Chen, feeling extremely happy inside.
This little guy, how is he so sensible?
Nearby, the Black Lotus Saint Envoy was dumbfounded. When Mo Nianli was in the Tianwu Continent, he was like a little demon lord himself. Since when did he become so good at flattering?
This... was like a completely different person.
Qin Chen was speechless. “You’re so tactful at such a young age!”
Mo Nianli smiled foolishly. “Uncle Qin, I’m actually very honest. It’s just that in this abyss, I have to pretend to be a bit clever so I don’t get fooled.”
Qin Chen laughed out loud. “You little sly fox, who could fool you?”
If an adult said something like this, everyone would think they were extremely clever and scheming. But Mo Nianli was just a four- or five-year-old kid, which only made it adorable, like a child imitating adults to act important.
“All right, now’s not the time to chat. Let’s first figure out the situation inside the Master of Destruction Path’s Territory.”
Qin Chen flickered and led everyone into his Inner World.
“Who exactly are you?”
Inside the Inner World, several divine souls floated there, revealing looks of terror and anger as they stared at Qin Chen and his group.
These were the domain lord who had been physically erased earlier and the abyss experts under his command.
Qin Chen ignored them and merely raised his hand, grabbing an astonishing source of primordial essence ahead — the domain lord’s own primordial essence.
This domain lord’s primordial essence radiated the unique evil, decay, pollution, and chilling power characteristic of the Abyssal Race. Even just sensing it sent a deeply uncomfortable feeling.
“My body currently lacks abyss origin power. Let’s see.”
With a thought, Qin Chen suddenly seized this source power and fiercely absorbed it into his body.
Boom!
The moment this abyss origin entered Qin Chen’s body, a terrifying power erupted wildly inside him. Instantly, his primordial essence began to slowly get polluted by this abyss power.
Although the abyss domain lord’s power was only at the early divine emperor level and thus the pollution effect was minuscule, it still had a slight influence, obstructing the flow of Qin Chen’s power.
“So this guy actually wants to directly devour our abyss origin?”
Those divine souls in the distance were stunned.
Especially the domain lord expert, whose pupils shrank.
“Abyss power contains countless types of pollution power. Upon reaching a certain level, the abyss origin’s attributes become fixed. At that stage, they cannot be directly devoured by others. Otherwise, the abyss would be full of reckless experts devouring each other. How does this guy dare to do such a thing?”
The domain lord expert was puzzled.
