Looking at the interaction between the two little guys, Xiao Lin also had a smile all over his face.
"Younger brother, I will definitely protect you well in the future!"
This was a promise made by Xiao Ding, who was only three years old, to his younger brother, Xiao Li.
"Then Ding'er, you will have to cultivate hard in the future, otherwise, don't let it turn into your younger brother protecting you when the time comes."
Xiao Lin couldn't help but tease a bit at this time.
"I will, Grandfather!"
At this moment, Xiao Ding answered incomparably seriously!
Subsequently, the grandfather and grandson duo went on like this, with one cradling and the other teasing the tiny human being.
After a while passed, Xiao Zhan finally walked out from the room.
"Zhan'er, how is Xiyue doing?"
While handing over the baby in his hands, Xiao Lin asked at the same time.
"Father, is Mother doing alright? Can I go inside to see her?"
Xiao Ding, who was to the side, also couldn't care less about continuing to tease his younger brother at this moment, but instead looked at his father and asked.
"Yue'er is doing very well, she's just a bit tired, so she fell asleep, Ding'er, your mother has already laid down to sleep, how about you go visit your mother a bit later?"
Xiao Zhan first took the baby handed over from his father's hands, and then spoke up to explain.
"That's good then."
"Alright, I understand, Father."
The grandfather and grandson opened their mouths one after another.
As for Xiao Zhan, he finally had time at this moment to look at his second son.
"What a pity, it's not a daughter, Yue'er actually wanted a daughter too, I had already thought it through, if the second child was a daughter, I was prepared to name her Xiao Yan..."
Looking at the second son in his arms, Xiao Zhan said not without disappointment.
Well, Xiao Lin suddenly understood a bit how the name of Xiao Yan in the original story came about. Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan, aren't these homophones?
It was just that the former was a male name, while the latter was clearly a female name.
"Uh, if the future Xiao Yan turned into a female Xiao Yan..."
Thinking of that kind of mental image, it was truly too beautiful, Xiao Lin was somewhat afraid to imagine it.
He hurriedly threw this somewhat crazy thought out of his mind.
Xiao Zhan cast a strange glance at the inexplicable expression that appeared on his father's face, and then refocused his attention back onto his second son.
"Li'er, you really tossed your mother around quite a bit today, when you grow up in the future, remember to protect your mother well!"
After holding up the baby in his arms, Xiao Zhan spoke up and said.
As for the child's name, as early as the beginning of the pregnancy when Xiao Lin hadn't even returned from the Central Plains yet, the husband and wife had already thought it through. It was no different from the original story, both were called Xiao Li.
Since Xiao Li was already born now, then, would Xiao Yan's birth be far off?
Within the original story, although it didn't explicitly state how many years of age difference there was among the three brothers Xiao Ding, Xiao Li, and Xiao Yan. But thinking about it, the eldest Xiao Ding couldn't possibly exceed Xiao Yan by more than six years.
In other words, with a high probability, within the next three years, Xiao Yan should be born.
Regarding this, Xiao Lin was quite looking forward to it!
Xiao Li's birth could be considered as adding another joyous event to the Xiao Clan.
In addition, in just about three to four days after Xiao Li was born, Yang Xiyue had basically recovered completely. For one thing, this might be due to the reason of it being her second pregnancy, so Yang Xiyue adapted relatively quickly.
For another thing, it was because the Battle Through the Heavens world was after all different from Xiao Lin's past life. Here, for anyone who cultivated Dou Qi, how could their bodies be compared to those ordinary people from his past life?
Naturally, those who possessed Dou Qi would also have their bodies recover much faster.
In the days that followed, Xiao Lin didn't continue to research and fiddle with formation plates anymore. Although six Rank 5 formation plates plus ten or so Rank 4 formation plates did not seem like much.
But Xiao Lin was not trying to buy everything at the Spatial Trade Fair!
The final type of artifact-refining material that he desired was definitely not worth that much money. Therefore, this capital was absolutely enough for Xiao Lin.
At the same time, because he considered that he would be heading to the Central Plains again before long, Xiao Lin spent more of his time accompanying his family.
Just like that, another month or so passed.
At this moment, there was only about a month left until the start of the Spatial Trade Fair. Xiao Lin also knew that it was time for him to set off. On the night before his departure, Xiao Lin silently finished a meal with his family.
The next day, he once again high-profilely announced that he was going into a long period of secluded cultivation.
Oh, right.
When Xiao Lin returned to the Northwestern Region from the Central Plains last time, his surface cultivation of Five-Star Dou Wang had already been raised by him to Six-Star Dou Wang.
It was precisely because of this that in the eyes of outsiders, Nalan Jie and Mu Chen, who originally possessed similar strength to Xiao Lin, were gradually being left behind by him.
One had to know that in the past, Xiao Lin was only one star higher than the two of them!
Now, when Xiao Lin revealed his surface cultivation of a Six-Star Dou Wang, the two of them were still Three-Star Dou Wangs. Therefore, within the current Jia Ma Empire, many people were spreading rumors that Xiao Lin would very likely become a new Dou Huang in the future!
When that time came, there would be one more Dou Huang level faction within the Jia Ma Empire.
Xiao Lin actually did not want his surface cultivation to rise so fast. But well, every time he publicly announced a long period of secluded cultivation, if there was no improvement, it wouldn't make sense!
If things continued like this, not to mention anything else, with Xiao Lin using secluded cultivation as an excuse. Going into seclusion again and again, perhaps the next time he came out of seclusion, his surface cultivation would have to be raised to Dou Huang...
Barring any accidents, the next time Xiao Lin came back from the Central Plains, which would also be the end of his fake secluded cultivation, his surface Dou Qi cultivation would have to be raised to Seven-Star Dou Wang.
After the plot of the original story began, Nalan Jie and Mu Chen would still be wasting time around Four-Star or Five-Star Dou Wang.
This time, the gap between each other was truly pulled apart.
After publicly announcing his long period of secluded cultivation once again, amidst the reminders from his son Xiao Zhan and daughter-in-law Yang Xiyue, Xiao Lin stepped onto the journey to the Central Plains once more.
Xiao Lin's action of quietly leaving the Xiao Clan was likewise only known by the couple Xiao Zhan and Yang Xiyue, as well as Yun Shan.
Buzz~
The spatial tunnel opened, and Xiao Lin's figure appeared on the Central Plains continent for the second time.
"Finally back, I hope that on this day one year from now, that bunch of filthy things from the Hall of Souls won't come looking for me again."
After Xiao Lin muttered to himself, he locked onto a direction and flew forward.
The hosting location of the Spatial Trade Fair had already been informed to him when the three great hidden sects sent people to give him the token. Therefore, at this moment, Xiao Lin naturally knew which direction to go.
At the same time, along with Xiao Lin setting foot in the Central Plains again, the matter of the once-in-a-decade Spatial Trade Fair about to be held again also began to spread by word of mouth among all the experts above the peak Dou Zong level in the Central Plains.
Therefore, in the time when there was less than a month left before the Spatial Trade Fair was held, experts from all walks of life were flying toward one direction. That was a desolate desert in the Southern Part of the Central Plains!
In a certain space within this desert was the entrance to the Spatial Trade Fair.
