Chapter 705: Something Happened to Huang Bai Xing

"What happened here, Uncle Huang?" Shenlian Yingyue asked with a concerned tone as she looked at Huang Donghai, whose face seemed to have aged overnight.

"Little Princess, I don’t want to hide anything from you. Apart from the two highnesses, you and the Little Prince (Shenlian Wanyan) are the only ones I trust," Huang Donghai sighed heavily as he sank into a chair, visibly exhausted.

Shenlian Yingyue listened quietly, waiting for him to finish while observing his troubled expression.

"Although she tries to hide it from me, as a father, I know that something is wrong with my daughter. Ever since the day she returned to this domain, her personality has changed drastically. I understand she holds me in her heart, but something seems to be preventing her from getting close to me." As he spoke, Huang Donghai covered his eyes, which were slightly reddened.

That day, his daughter had appeared under a different identity to save him and everyone in the Huang family.

Even though she concealed her true identity, he recognized her immediately. No matter who she had become, he would always see her as his daughter.

He didn’t care how powerful and remarkable she appeared in others’ eyes; to him, she was still his baby girl. It pained him to think of the hardships she had endured to reach her current state.

She had done everything for him, even though he had never asked her to.

What hurt him even more was that she refused to acknowledge him. After saving him, she had left and had not returned since. He hadn’t eaten, waiting desperately to see her and to ask how she had been over the past two years.

"She hasn’t returned home with her real identity yet?" Shenlian Yingyue frowned, concerned.

"No, she hasn’t," Huang Donghai sighed again, his voice weak. Suddenly, he stood up and knelt before her. "Little Princess, I have sent people to look for her, but I haven’t been able to reach her. Please help me find her; I will be forever grateful for your assistance. As long as she is safe, I can finally rest."

Huang Donghai was aware that the relationship between his daughter and the Little Princess had not been good. In the past, he had been unable to stop them from tormenting each other, but now, he felt an instinctive belief that only the person in front of him could help.

"Uncle Huang, please stand up." Shenlian Yingyue was taken aback and quickly helped him to his feet.

"Little Princess, I know my request will delay your work, but please... I cannot let anything happen to my daughter." Huang Donghai’s voice trembled. His heart had been anything but calm these days; he had a gut feeling that something was wrong.

’A father’s love is as vast as the ocean.’

Suddenly, a thought intruded on her mind. Shenlian Yingyue began to miss her father. If he were here, would he go to any lengths for her, just as Uncle Huang did for Huang Bai Xing?

No, she would never doubt her father’s love for her and her brother. He was the best father in the world. Her calm heart had never raced like this before. She wanted to see her father soon, and she simply had to.

"Uncle Huang, don’t worry. I’ll find her and make sure she’s safe." Shenlian Yingyue’s response felt like a promise.

Upon hearing her words, Huang Donghai almost burst into tears.

"Xie Cai, your mission is to watch over my uncle’s well-being. You don’t have to follow me." After exiting Huang Donghai’s study, she called out to Xie Cai.

"Ensure he eats well and rests properly. I don’t want anything to happen to him before I find her." Shenlian Yingyue’s tone was more serious than it had ever been when addressing Xie Cai.

A cultivator at Huang Donghai’s level didn’t need to eat, but if he didn’t eat, sleep, and practice, his spirit wouldn’t be able to support him for long.

"I will," Xie Cai replied, his eyes betraying a hint of concern.

"Take this book. Practice diligently; only by becoming strong can you protect those you care about." She handed him a book and left quickly without waiting for a response.
