Chapter 469 The First Incarnation's Spiritual Power Returns, World Laws Fail

Grandpa Shen was very anxious.

Ignoring everything else, he gripped the wheelchair wheels with both hands, rolling after Qiao Qiao while anxiously calling from behind, "Child, child, wait, wait!"

Seeing his hurried and flustered appearance, the boys in front, with their innate vigilance, formed a U-shape again, protecting Qiao Qiao in the very center.

He managed to render his bodyguards completely useless.

"Child, are you feeling unwell anywhere?" Old Master Shen didn't have time to pay attention to the boys' wariness of him, but instead asked Qiao Qiao anxiously.

He was really anxious; he reached through the boys to grab Qiao Qiao.

“Child, don’t be afraid of Grandpa. Grandpa won’t hurt you. Grandpa has a doctor. Grandpa will take you to see a doctor.”

Without hesitation, the bodyguards were about to step forward to stop the obviously agitated Old Master Shen when Shen Qingyan and Yan Liti stepped out from the room and downstairs respectively to Qiao Qiao's side.

Yan Liti came up from downstairs and was so angry when she saw this scene that her hair stood on end.

"What are you doing, you old geezer!" she yelled at Old Master Shen.

Shen Qingyan came out of the room. He was a few minutes behind the boys and Qiao Qiao when they left because he remembered that he needed to get two military water bottles for Qiao Qiao, which had been filled with malted milk powder and warm water.

Seeing that something seemed to have happened here, he ran over in a few big strides and almost lightning-fast picked up Qiao Qiao from the ground and put her in his arms, while looking at Old Master Shen with a wary and sharp gaze.

Old Master Shen never expected that one day, Shen Qingyan would look at him with such eyes.

He felt a lump in his throat, and the pain made his face turn slightly pale.

"Child, child, please take the child to the hospital to see her, she..."

Despite his heartache, Old Master Shen pointed at Qiao Qiao and spoke urgently, but he didn't know how to explain that Qiao Qiao seemed to have shrunk a lot.

He could only point anxiously at Qiao Qiao, his fingers trembling uncontrollably, and he could barely speak.

This made everyone subconsciously look at Qiao Qiao, thinking that she was feeling unwell.

But under everyone's concerned gaze, Qiao Qiao simply shrugged and hunched her shoulders, indicating that she didn't know what was wrong with the old man either.

"Is there anything wrong?" Shen Qingyan carefully checked her hands and feet.

Qiao Qiao naturally wrapped her small hands around his neck and shook her head.

Then she said, "Dad, I'm hungry, let's go downstairs to eat."

"Okay, let's have some malted milk powder to fill our stomachs first."

Shen Qingyan breathed a sigh of relief. Ignoring the old man beside him, he smoothed her hair with one hand, picked up the kettle filled with the prepared malted milk powder, opened the lid, and carefully fed it to her lips.

After Qiao Qiao drank a few sips following his movements, she was carried downstairs by Shen Qingyan. Looking at Yan Liti, who seemed reluctant to leave, she waved her little hand and asked, "Grandma?"

Yan Liti waved to her, gently and lovingly comforting her.

"Baby, Grandma has already ordered breakfast for you. You, your dad, and your brothers go downstairs to eat first, and Grandma will be down in a minute."

Qiao Qiao glanced at her, then at Grandpa Shen sitting in a wheelchair beside her, and nodded obediently: "Okay, Grandma, you have to hurry up."

Yan Liti naturally nodded with a smile.

It wasn't until Yan Liti spoke with Old Master Shen alone that she understood what he meant.

Yan Liti looked at Old Master Shen with a complicated expression.

She had been a little confused before, wondering how this old man could see the little bubbles on her granddaughter's head.

Now it seems that this old man does have some genuine feelings for his granddaughter.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to notice something was wrong with his granddaughter after seeing her less than ten times.

Especially regarding this height issue, not only their own people, but even the villagers of Qiaojia Village didn't notice anything wrong.

This old man actually discovered it in just one try.

"She's fine. There are some things I can't explain to you, but just know that she's alright."

Yan Liti never truly trusted Old Master Shen, and naturally, she wouldn't tell him about Qiao Qiao's special circumstances.

Yan Liti was about to leave after saying those words.

But halfway there, as if remembering something, he turned back to look at Old Master Shen and sincerely advised him.

"By the way, you don't need to come with us today. Our plan is to climb Nan Zong Mountain. It's a pretty high mountain, so don't bother with your broken legs."

"Otherwise, if you die on the way, and people have to carry your coffin, it's very unlucky, whether it's the mountain or the baby, do you understand?"

As Yan Liti spoke, she glanced at Old Master Shen's two legs, which were resting on the footrest of his wheelchair.

"..." Old Master Shen.

"Hey, by the way, do you feel any better in your leg now?" Yan Liti took a few more steps, almost out the door, then suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked with a hint of gossip.

Qiao Qiao had previously told them that the restrictions imposed on her by the laws of the world had been lifted.

Only then did they realize that the reason why Qiao Qiao couldn't say certain things before and could only express them through the bubbles on her head was because there was a so-called world law that was suppressing her behavior.

Even the laws of this world once tried to erase some of her memories.

Even the fact that she was able to be kidnapped right under the noses of so many people was inseparable from the manipulation of the laws of the world.

Only then did everyone realize that they were truly living inside a book.

However, as Qiao Qiao's cultivation level increased,

The fortune that belonged to her, and to the Qiao family, was slowly returning.

Yan Liti then remembered that Old Master Shen's legs could actually still walk a few steps before. His leg injury was a sequela left from the war, but it was not to the point that he could not walk.

It was only later, when they separated completely because their son came of age, and after Old Master Shen began to get closer to Shen Qingrong's family, that his legs started to become less effective.

This is evident.

This old geezer, in that distorted worldview before, had his luck and fortune drained by Shen Qingrong's family.

Now that family is torn apart, and it looks like they're all going to die.

She was curious whether Grandpa Shen's legs would return to their previous state.

Upon hearing Yan Liti's question, Old Master Shen paused for a moment, thinking she was concerned about him. His heart softened, and he replied, "Much better, you don't need to worry..."

"Alright, don't flatter yourself. I'm not worried about you, I'm just curious." Yan Liti quickly distanced herself.

Grandpa Shen carefully observed her expression.

Seeing that there was no worry in her eyes or on her face, only curiosity and doubt, I could only lower my eyes.

Concealing the bitterness in her heart, she replied, "It hurts very little now, much better than before."

Yan Liti nodded upon hearing this, and this time she really left without looking back.
