Moments later, a drop of Divine Gifted Golden Essence fell on Xiaojiu's forehead and was quickly absorbed by her.
Only then did the Beast God's Phantom retract his hand, and Xiaojiu flew back to Frans's side, retracting her Light Wings and the Angel's Wings.
Frans held her in his arms, looking at the shining star pattern on her forehead, which was the Sky-Piercing Holy Pattern, a sacred mark only present in angels of the Saint Rank. The left fist she had been clutching tightly since teleporting had also relaxed, revealing a scepter-shaped birthmark in her palm.
"Your mother knows what daddy wants," Frans whispered as he kissed the mark on Xiaojiu's forehead. "Grow up quickly."
The mark slowly faded and disappeared.
Frans then pinched her little hand, and the scepter-shaped birthmark also concealed itself.
Feeling sleepy, Xiaojiu yawned and burrowed her chubby little head into Frans's embrace.
Frans smiled gently.
Then, his gaze, even more anxious, fell upon Xiaoshi.
