You were exploring your father’s Ghost City while Xie Lian was busy in the heavens. Though you were young, Hua Cheng never had to worry about your safety in the city. If any civilian dare lay a hand on you, Hua Cheng would have their head.

You rushed up to your father, excitedly, telling him that you had found scraps that Xie Lian might like.

“Oh? Let’s see it then.”

From behind your back, you pulled out a bloody arm, a toothy smile decorating your face. Hua Cheng only looked at you with his eyebrows raised.

“I’m not exactly sure that’s what your father is looking for..” He meant to say ‘Where the fuck did you find that?!’ But of course he could not say that to such a small child.
