Chapter 406 My Son Was Actually Beside Me
"Mother……"
Upon hearing this, Hu Tao's eyes widened in shock, and her mind went completely blank.
"Little friend, look carefully. How could I, so young, possibly be your mother?"
Surprised, Hu Tao regained her composure and earnestly reminded him.
After rolling his eyes, the boy muttered, "Bad luck, I got caught..."
After saying that, the boy, feeling a chill of fear, quickly got up and grabbed the little snake beside him, preparing to run away.
Although Xun Feng couldn't hear the boy's voice clearly, in order to prevent him from running into the dangerous area filled with dark element ions, a wall of light fell down in the next instant, blocking the boy's path.
"Don't be afraid, we're not bad people. You don't need to be so nervous. As far as I know, only the Heavenly Principles and the rulers live on Sky Island. How did you get here?"
Upon hearing this, the boy stopped, scratched the back of his head, and gave an awkward smile.
"My name is Xiaoxi. I was originally planning to go out and gain experience. To prove myself, I secretly traveled to another time and space without my parents' knowledge. But for some reason, Pupu's size has shrunk considerably. Perhaps the existence of equals in this time and space has suppressed its laws of existence. I heard that my father once ventured into Sky Island alone, and I wanted to be even stronger than him, so I came here. But I forgot to bring food, and I soon fainted from hunger..."
After saying that, the boy raised his index fingers with a wronged expression and touched his chest with them. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes, which made Hu Tao pat his head to comfort him.
"Time travel—Xun Feng, has this little guy been reading too many novels? Isn't this Ishtar's power? If he had this ability, would he be afraid of going hungry?"
After whispering something in Xunfeng's ear, Hu Tao looked at the little boy gently again and said.
"Xiaoxi, don't joke around. Tell your sister where you live, and Xunfeng and I will take you home."
Meanwhile, Xun Feng observed the small snake, a hint of confusion flickering in his eyes.
"Is it just my imagination...? This snake's aura is about 80% similar to Appepp's."
"Now that you've reminded me, I can also sense its vital state; it is indeed roughly equivalent to Appepp."
Upon hearing this, Xun Feng pondered for a moment, then nodded and scratched his chin.
"If it really is Appepp, then is the stream really from the future?! There is also an Appepp in this timeline, so this snake... is the future Appepp in a suppressed state."
Seeing Xunfeng's serious expression, Hu Tao asked with a puzzled expression.
"Little Stream, how many years into the future did you travel here? What are your parents' names?"
A slight ripple stirred within her, but Hu Tao composed herself and responded with a smile.
"I traveled here from fifteen years in the future. I came out on my own to gain experience in order to better master the power of the light element."
After saying that, Xiaoxi grinned confidently, but then deflated because she was too hungry.
"Mother, do you have anything to eat?"
"Yes...wait—what did you call me?!"
Hu Tao had just pulled a bag of dried beef out of her pocket when she was completely bewildered by the term "twice as good as her."
"That's right, I haven't been born yet in this timeline, so it's normal that my mother doesn't recognize me... but I have this in my hand."
After saying that, Xiaoxi took out the same peach wood token as the one on the walnut hat, which was clearly engraved with the symbol of the Hall of Rebirth.
