Live-in Son-in-law

Chapter 1685: Treat Her Well

Qin Yi walked over, picked up the upset baby, and said softly, "Baby, I’m really happy to have met you! But staying at home is safer for you. Following me will only put you in danger. Rest assured, I will come back to see you when I get the chance."

"No, not leaving the baby... boohoo... not leaving the baby..."

The little white cat cried very sadly.

"Are you thinking about the baby’s safety?"

The baby’s mother looked at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi nodded slightly, "Senior, I’m someone who naturally attracts trouble wherever I go, bringing danger with me. As you saw, if not for your timely arrival at Wufeng City, the baby and I might have already died."

"The baby is safer staying with you than following me... where danger abounds."

The baby’s grandfather said, "This kid still has a bit of conscience."

Qin Yi smiled wryly. He hoped for the well-being of everyone around him, and he had always strived for that.

The baby’s father said, "You probably don’t know; our clan’s rule is that once we identify someone, we will follow them for life, never abandoning them. If the person we follow dies, we return here and never follow anyone again."

"Now that you abandon the baby, it will greatly impact her future cultivation. The baby will always be despondent and never find happiness."

"The baby chose you, and we respect her choice. We only wish for you to stay here a few more days so the baby can spend more time with us."

Qin Yi was stunned. No wonder the baby was crying so sadly; his good intentions seemed like abandonment to the baby.

"But senior, my cultivation is inadequate, and following me is dangerous for the baby. How about this: give me five years, and I’ll come back for the baby; by then, I will surely be able to protect her and ensure she won’t get hurt."

The baby’s father nodded in satisfaction, "I’m very glad you said that; it shows you are someone who can be entrusted. However, you underestimate our Thunder Beast clan. We are not afraid of danger or hardship; the only thing we hate is betrayal."

"You care about the baby so much, I feel very assured with her following you. The baby is not a hothouse flower; she has been struggling in the Storm Zone and working hard in cultivation since she was little, enduring hardships you cannot imagine."

Qin Yi tenderly stroked the small, sorrowful creature in his arms.

"Qin Yi, I’m entrusting the baby to you! She needs to grow and experience trials."

The little white cat raised her head, looking at Qin Yi with hope, "Baby likes you."

Qin Yi sighed heavily, deciding to take the baby with him.

"Senior, since you trust me so much, I will not let you down. I swear, as long as I have a breath left, I will not let the baby come to harm."

The baby’s father nodded, "It is the law of the Thunder Beast that upon meeting their first human, regardless of their strength, they must follow them and help each other. You are very young, yet your cultivation is already remarkable. The baby’s luck is quite good."

Qin Yi suddenly realized, it was just as he had guessed—he was indeed the first human the baby had encountered.

Qin Yi looked down at the little white cat, "Baby, I’m taking you with me. Rest assured, I will definitely protect you."

"Really?" The little white cat lifted her head, her round eyes filled with joy.

Qin Yi nodded firmly.

"Qin Yi likes the baby... Qin Yi likes the baby..."

The little white cat jumped out of Qin Yi’s arms, joyfully rolling all over the ground.

The four White Tigers nearby simultaneously let out a sigh, clearly saying... children eventually leave their mothers.

Especially the baby’s mother, whose resentful gaze made Qin Yi’s scalp tingle, as if saying... I raised this cabbage for a hundred years, only for you to come and take it away.

I didn’t, it’s a child; it’s just a cat, I’m not that perverse... Qin Yi silently explained in his heart.

The baby’s father said solemnly, "Prepare for the ceremony to recognize Qin Yi as the master."

"The master recognition ceremony?" Qin Yi frowned.

The baby’s father nodded, "Once the baby recognizes you as her master, she will forever follow you, never leaving."

Qin Yi waved his hand, "No need, the baby is my friend, I will not be her master."

All four White Tigers were stunned.

"Are you sure?" The father of the White Tigers asked uncertainly, "Do you know that without the master recognition ceremony, the baby can leave anytime if she wants to?"

Qin Yi laughed, "That’s better! If we ever face life-threatening danger, if the baby doesn’t leave, I would even force her away."

Qin Yi bent down to pick up the little white cat, "Baby, are you willing to be friends with me?"

The little white cat happily nodded her little head.

Qin Yi looked at the baby’s father, "The baby and I are now friends, and there will never be a master-servant relationship between us."

"This human kid is quite interesting." The baby’s grandfather handed over a Heavenly Thunder Fruit, saying, "Good child, grandpa invites you to eat this fruit."

Qin Yi felt like he was being taken advantage of, but there was no evidence.

He was about to take the Heavenly Thunder Fruit when the baby’s grandmother knocked it away, scolding, "You old fool, are you crazy? This is a Heavenly Thunder Fruit; how could a human withstand its power? It would make him explode."

Qin Yi was about to cry without tears, thinking: I really can handle it.

The baby’s grandfather awkwardly said, "I forgot, hehe..."

Qin Yi was about to thick-skinnedly ask for the Heavenly Thunder Fruit when he heard the baby’s father say, "Qin Yi, it’s the baby’s fortune to have met you, treat her well."

Qin Yi scratched his head; why did this sound so strange? But still, he nodded heavily, "Rest assured, senior, I will definitely protect the baby."

"Alright! So stay here a few more days and let the baby spend more time with us," the baby’s mother said.

Qin Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior, how about this: I have urgent matters to attend to and must leave first. I’ll come back for the baby in a few days, is that alright with you?"

"Young man, you’re trying to run?" The baby’s mother got angry.

Qin Yi smiled bitterly, "Calm down, senior. It’s not what you think. I have a few friends in Wufeng City. The battle was terrifying; I don’t know what happened to them, and I have to find them."

"Is it that little dragon and that little fox?"

Qin Yi was overjoyed, "Senior, have you seen them?"

"Rest assured, they are very safe and will be waiting for you in Fengbo City, so don’t worry."

That day, when she left, she heard the conversation between the Red Lotus Netherworld Envoy and Lang Ya, and others.

"Little dragon? Is it the Dragon Clan?" The baby’s grandfather suddenly asked.

The baby’s mother nodded.

Qin Yi suddenly felt a chill, seeing the baby’s grandfather with drool at the corner of his mouth... indicating he was very tempted.

Damn, does this guy want to eat dragon meat?

Qin Yi’s back got cold; Thunder Beasts have always been mysterious, only existing in legend, with limited knowledge from outsiders. Now it seems, this clan is far more terrifying than the rumors say.

However, hearing Lang Ya and others were safe, Qin Yi let out a heavy sigh of relief.
