Gu Nuo'er slept soundly.
In her dream, she was jumping around Grandpa Heavenly Dao.
The ink-like mountain range didn't move at all.
However, the child stepped barefoot on the small boat the old man was sitting on, causing ripples to appear on the water.
Old Master Heavenly Dao stroked his beard and laughed. "Alright, alright, little fish baby, if you continue jumping, Grandpa's boat will be overturned by you!"
Gu Nuo'er stopped.
She blinked her bright black eyes. "Grandpa, tell Nuo'er the truth. When we came back from the Asura Realm, it didn't hurt. Were you protecting me?!"
Heavenly Dao patted her head kindly. "That's right. I can't hide things from this little girl."
He smiled warmly, his white beard curling up slightly.
His ancient and deep eyes were filled with wisdom that had accumulated over time and a kind of benevolence from a supreme god.
