Xuan Long slowly opened his eyes again. The coldness inside them softened slightly. Now, he no longer wanted to search for that answer anymore.
Because now...
He already had everything he once never dared dream about.
A mate.
A family.
Su Qinglan.
Just thinking about her made the sharp aura around him calm instantly. And then there was Xiao San, his cub. Their adorable little cub.
Maybe in the future...They would even have more cubs together. The thought made the corners of Xuan Long’s lips soften slightly.
Meanwhile, Mo Qingli stood nearby completely confused. Every question in his mind seemed to lead nowhere. Before he could think further, Xuan Long suddenly looked at him again.
"This time, it is my turn to ask."
"How do you know about the Teng Clan?"
Mo Qingli immediately became serious. After hesitating briefly, he finally answered honestly.
"Because I once met someone from Teng Clan."
The moment those words fell... Xuan Long’s eyes instantly sharpened. His body stiffened slightly. His fists slowly clenched tightly.
Aside from himself... And the man who abandoned him... Nobody from Teng Clan had ever truly stepped into this lower domain.
Even the elders only searched from afar through subordinates.
That meant...
The person Mo Qingli met... It could only be that man. Suddenly, Xuan Long felt his heartbeat speeding up uncontrollably.
Meanwhile, Mo Qingli slowly continued speaking.
"There was a man..."
"He had eyes almost identical to yours."
"I do not know whether you are related or not."
"But he was my savior."
"My master."
The forest suddenly became silent. Xuan Long remained motionless. But the emotions inside his eyes began fluctuating violently.
Mo Qingli did not notice. Instead, his own expression suddenly became cold and vigilant.
"But let me warn you first."
"If you are one of those proud people from Teng Clan who wants to harm my master..."
"You can forget about finding him."
The moment those words fell...
Xuan Long suddenly laughed softly. But that laugh carried no warmth at all.
"Harm him?"
His voice became low and dangerous.
"The people of Teng Clan may not care about that man anymore."
"But does he care about his own offspring?"
The final words came out almost like a growl. A terrifying pressure exploded outward instantly.
Mo Qingli’s face turned pale immediately. His heart shook violently. Offspring? He stared at Xuan Long with disbelief.
"You..."
"You are Master’s offspring?!"
His voice trembled heavily. But Xuan Long said nothing. The emotions inside his eyes slowly disappeared once again until only emptiness remained.
Then without another word. He turned around and disappeared instantly. Leaving Mo Qingli standing alone inside the forest.
The cold wind blew past silently. Mo Qingli remained frozen for a very long time. His mind felt completely chaotic.
Slowly, he raised a hand and rubbed his forehead hard. His expression became filled with shock.
Master had an offspring?
How was that possible?
And if the Master truly had a cub...
Why did nobody know?
Why had he never mentioned it before?
Why would he leave his own cub abandoned in the lower domain?
If he truly could not raise the cub himself... Then why not leave the cub behind with him?
Mo Qingli’s chest suddenly felt extremely heavy. Especially after remembering the emptiness inside Xuan Long’s eyes.
That child...
No.
That man clearly resented his father deeply.
Suddenly, Mo Qingli covered his face helplessly.
"Master..."
"What exactly have you done..."
