"Don't worry, you'll definitely be the aunt until you cry for help."
Tang Rao is already a father of three kids, two sons and a daughter, and he plans to have more, making Yan Wei envious beyond measure.
Having three children, whenever Tang Rao thinks about being a dad to three kids, he can't help but sigh.
Where exactly has Tang Xiaobai, that little rascal, been taken? Apart from waiting, he truly doesn't have a single solution.
Since the kidnapping, it's already been three days. If the culprit has any motive, they should have acted by now, exchanging the hostage for some conditions.
But up till now, Tang Rao hasn't received any exchange demands from the other party.
Tang Xiaobai is just a child; he knows nothing. There's no use in holding him captive, and the little boy eats and drinks voraciously, possibly eating his captors into poverty.
As for the food the Golden Phoenix eats, who knows if the little rascal is used to it? The worst scenario is he might not even have food.
"You were never shy about exploiting me, so be sure not to be modest when exploiting them. Don't let yourself suffer."
Tang Xiaobai is such a clever kid, he probably won't fall for these tricks, right?
The time Tang Lei promised to find Tang Xiaobai, Tang Rao would look for Tang Lei three times a day, reporting in morning, noon, and night; it's a determination to not give up until he's found.
There you go, Tang Lei just learned to video chat using Illusion City and was chatting intensely with Fang Fang when Tang Rao came over again.
Upon entering, Tang Rao asked Tang Lei directly, "Dad, have you found any news about Xiaobai?"
The first time Tang Xiaobai was stolen by Granny Hua, Tang Rao was worried, but later discovered Granny Hua meant him no harm, and Tang Rao's mood improved. This time is different; the one who took Tang Xiaobai isn't human. Can beasts think like humans?
"Why are you asking again? Didn't I say it would take some time to know?"
Tang Lei, asked repeatedly by Tang Rao, got irritated and finally explained.
"But the time isn't short. If Xiaobai encounters a pervert, who would be responsible for whatever that pervert might do to him?"
Tang Rao's words made Tang Rao laugh.
"Your mom was imprisoned in Motherly Mountain for so many years, and you weren't concerned at all. But now that it's your son taken by the Golden Phoenix, you're all anxious beyond compare. Indeed, sons are more important than fathers."
Tang Lei gets jealous over his wife, proving he's truly a rare good man.
"They're equally important. My mom isn't in life-threatening danger, that's fine. But my son's current life or death is unknown. Which situation do you think is more severe? Which should I prioritize?"
Fine, since you put it that way, then go get your son back first, so you don't have to worry constantly.
Get the son back first?
Tang Lei's tone suggests Tang Xiaobai has been found?
Why didn't Tang Lei say it earlier, leaving Tang Rao worried for so long?
"He was the one who told me not to tell you. If you want to blame someone, blame your son."
Tang Xiaobai told Tang Lei not to say anything?
The kid knows Tang Rao is fraught with worry because he can't find him, yet acts as if nothing happened, while the dad's heart is broken, the son acts as if everything's fine.
"Where is he?"
This time Tang Rao asks even more bluntly.
To find Tang Xiaobai, he has to see what tricks the kid is up to.
"In the Phoenix's lair."
Tang Lei's nonchalant words nearly made Tang Rao laugh.
Tang Xiaobai is in the Golden Phoenix's lair, a situation that would typically make anyone nervous. Yet, Tang Xiaobai effortlessly occupied the lair.
"Lair? Can you finish your thoughts all at once?"
Is Tang Xiaobai alright or not? Has he been bullied or has he accomplished great feats? These are the things Tang Rao wants to know.
"It's not much of an achievement; he just turned the Golden Phoenix into a bald bird. And guess what, the hottest livestream on Illusion City now is your son's, with all the Illusion City players giving him rewards. If there's dramatic change, his past reward records are far behind now."
So, Tang Xiaobai plucked the Golden Phoenix barehanded and now everyone's talking about it in the Divine Realm?
"Is there really such a thing?"
Tang Rao enters the livestream, and the top feature is the image of Tang Xiaobai plucking feathers by hand; the picture is so gory that Tang Rao doesn't dare to click in.
"Hahahaha, Dad, look at the despair in the Phoenix's eyes when my son was plucking feathers. Hahaha, I love that he's developing in this direction; growing up he will be bold and won't be bullied."
Bold, not bullied?
Seems like Tang Xiaobai has already achieved it, hasn't he?
"You're right. And you haven't noticed the blood that flows in Tang Xiaobai's veins? It's all thanks to me that you and your son are so excellent today."
Tang Lei, dissatisfied with being forgotten by Tang Rao, seizes this moment to find presence in Tang Xiaobai.
"My excellent bloodline is innate; you stop giving yourself undue credit."
Tang Rao, engrossed in watching the Golden Phoenix being plucked, finally understands why Tang Xiaobai didn't want Tang Rao to know he was in the lair.
Rarely interested in using Illusion City's social platforms, now broadcasting feather plucking, had Tang Rao seen it, he'd surely laugh until he cried.
Too bad, Tang Xiaobai didn't anticipate his feather plucking video going viral and shooting to the top.
Tang Xiaobai doesn't care about who rewarded how much money; he cares about reputation.
The Phoenix came to the Kao Shan Sect and not only burned the factory but dared to directly assault him. Anyone wouldn't have such good temper; he wants revenge on the Phoenix, wants everyone to know that Tang Xiaobai isn't someone easy to deal with.
"So, what do you thinkāisn't your son damn handsome?"
Tang Lei asks Tang Rao while complimenting his good bloodline, then questions if Tang Xiaobai is handsome, probably aiming to praise the Tang Family in various aspects.
"Handsome, absolutely handsome, so handsome I don't know what to say. Where exactly is the Phoenix's lair; I'll find the rascal first and then talk."
If you do wrong, you should face punishment. Tang Xiaobai likes playing disappear with Tang Rao, doesn't he? Then teach him what catching the mouse is all about.
Tang Lei sent the location to Tang Rao. With the location, finding Tang Xiaobai will be simple and fun.
"Little rascal, you think you're capable? Try showing Dad your prowess again!"
Tang Rao acts swiftly; with the location and the Divine Stone, there's no place he can't go.
Tang Xiaobai didn't even notice someone appearing beside him out of nowhere, and he was immediately punished with an ear pull by Tang Rao.
