Chapter 921: Opposing Worlds (16)
Just as the jailers were daydreaming, Xing Rong suddenly pulled away Ming Xi, who was hugging her, with some disgust, without giving Ming Xi any time to react, and let his hands leave her body.
Xing Rong stared at Ming Xi seriously and said, "Ming Xi, have you washed your hands?"
Ming Xi had touched Zhou Silin's feet just now. Although Zhou Silin was in a soul state, no matter what, touching her with the hand that had touched her feet would still make her feel a little uncomfortable.
Ming Xi was stunned and subconsciously put his little hands behind his back. He did not feel sad or at a loss because of being rejected by Xing Rong. On the contrary, he suddenly realized that his little hands were indeed a little dirty after touching Zhou Silin's feet just now.
"I'm sorry, Mommy, I forgot! I'll go wash it now!" Ming Xi said hurriedly, with a hint of guilt and eagerness in her voice, and turned around to wash her hands.
Pluto Xiaohua had obviously forgotten about this. Feeling somewhat guilty, he took Mingxi's hand and walked quickly towards the nearest small lava waterfall.
The surrounding jailers saw this scene and couldn't help but widen their eyes, wanting to remind Hades to be careful with the child's hand. However, before they could say anything, Hades Xiaohua had already quickly grabbed Mingxi's hand and plunged it into the boiling magma without hesitation.
The jailers were all stunned. They watched Pluto fiddling with Mingxi's little hands in the lava like rubbing clothes, their hearts filled with fear and worry.
When Mingxi's hand stretched out from the lava, the jailers found that he was completely unharmed!
Their mouths were wide open, wide enough to fit a salted duck egg in. They couldn't believe their eyes. What on earth was going on? Did this child have some special ability?
No wonder the woman looked so calm and composed when she saw Hades taking the child to wash his hands, without any sign of anxiety. It turned out that she had already known that the child was immune to the damage of the Hades' magma.
No wonder Pluto is so pretentious, it turns out that those who come here are all big shots.
If Xiaohua knew what the jailers were thinking and was secretly teasing her, she would probably give them a big eye roll on the spot.
That was Xing Rong! And Ming Xi was her and the Realm Lord's biological son!
How could this mere lava hurt him!
……
"Mommy, I heard that the old man lives on this floor." The child happily reported his "achievements" to his mother.
"Oh? How did you find out? He no longer uses his human form."
"It's very simple! I just ask those people down there which floor the most powerful guy lives on and who the owner of this island is, and then I'll know everything!" the child answered proudly.
"Are you going to act cute again?"
"Mommy, your genes are so good. It would be such a waste if I don't make good use of them." The child blinked mischievously.
"Where on earth did you learn these tricks?" The mother shook her head helplessly.
"Mommy, I'm very smart. My IQ is up to you." The child hugged his mother's arm coquettishly.
"But Mommy, I never thought that this island still exists! It's just that the people here have changed. Are those people gone now?" the child asked curiously.
"I have restored it to its original state as best as I could, but whether the person is still there depends on whether that person died at the time of destruction," her mother said in a calm voice.
"Ah~ Then I am exactly the same as before. If that grandfather sees me, will he take me back to inherit the family fortune?"
"Xixi, you look very excited."
"Oh~ Mommy, if I really inherit the family fortune, your life will be much easier in the future~"
"This world is a world where the strong prey on the weak. Even if he's not here, you're fully capable of snatching that family fortune away."
Tian Jie stood quietly in front of the door, listening attentively to the conversation between the mother and son coming from outside.
He didn't know what they were talking about exactly, but from their conversation, he could vaguely feel that they seemed to be looking for someone.
Another possibility cannot be ruled out, that is, the people downstairs changed their strategy and tried to kill him in a different way.
After all, this was the top floor. In addition to the room he lived in, the other one was specially reserved for someone he thought was qualified to live on the same floor with him.
At this moment, the room opposite was empty.
