Chapter 248: Meeting With Sophia -1
Li Wei was dumbfounded by what he heard and wondered if it was true or not.
'Sigh, can't you at least make clear that you are real?' he thought with grumble when a chat message arrived in front of him.
Luna (the Goddess of Life): Is this confirmation enough? Then go fast; don't waste time.
Li Wei: Understand I will be there within a minute, but is it dangerous?
Luna (the Goddess of Life): ...
Luna (the Goddess of Life): No, it's not dangerous, but if you don't go within a minute, it will be life-threatening.
Li Wei: Haha, don't worry, goddess, I will be there within a minute.
Li Wei replied hurriedly as he felt a chill on his back.
'Why is she talking about killing when she is the goddess of life?' he thought bitterly while wondering why the goddess of death didn't contact or say something.
However, he didn't ponder too much and turned towards Li Xin and others who had just come out of the changing room with new outfits.
"XinXin, I have something to do right now, so I will leave my clone here," he informed, making everyone stunned.
"Brother, what happened? Why are you in such a hurry" Li Xin inquired with concern.
Hearing her, Li Wei smiled with assurance.
"It's just a small matter, but it needs me to be there. Don't worry, it's not something dangerous," he explained before continuing.
"Well, I will take my leave now since it's a little urgent," he said and disappeared with teleportation while leaving his clone there.
Li Xin and others were stunned once again at his sudden leave and felt it was not some small matter.
Only Irene knew how serious this matter was since she saw Li Wei and the spirits related to him disappear without a trace.
However, she didn't say anything about this, knowing he didn't want anyone to worry about.

After teleporting quite a few times, Li Wei finally arrived in the north planes while also making sure no one was following him.
Yet he didn't find anyone here.
"Where is she? Do I need to go more deeper?" he muttered with a frown as he didn't know the location of Sophia.
Just as he was about to ask Luna about it, his surroundings changed suddenly, and he appeared in an unknown area.
However, he didn't care about this change because his eyes remained focused on the figure who appeared before him along with an eight-year-old sleeping girl.
"Li Wei, it's been a long time," Sophia smiled sweetly as she caressed the back of the little girl who was sleeping peacefully in her arms.
Hearing her, Li Wei finally came out of his dumbfounded look.
"Miss Sophia, it's been a long time," he greeted with a wry smile.
Watching him like this, Sophia felt unhappy.
'Humph, I don't have time to bother with you, or I might've taught you a lesson for being unwilling to meet me,' she thought silently with a pout before talking with him.
"Li Wei, you have promised Sera to fulfill one condition as long as it's not dangerous and life-threatening."
"So, all you have to do is now take care of this little girl, Evelyn, who is Sera's only disciple," she stated seriously.
Hearing her, Li Wei was stunned.
"Miss Sophia, even if she is Miss Sera's disciple, it doesn't mean I have to take care of her right? Also, what about her parents, and why is Miss Sera not saying anything?" he inquired.
In response, Sophia answered coldly.
"Her parents sold her to a kingdom for some money; if not for that, Evelyn will be living a happy life," she replied with a hint of killing intent before continuing with eased expression.
"Sera has less chances of interfering or contacting you because she made you bugged."
"But you don't need to worry about this since she will contact you once Evelyn wakes up, and after that, unless it's very important, she won't say anything," she explained.
Hearing this, Li Wei nodded with an understanding look before gazing at the little girl who was sleeping peacefully.
He didn't have any problems with taking care of her because he owed the Goddess of Death for making him bugged and giving strength to protect the people he cared about.
However, he hesitated after knowing his situation and finally shook his head.
"Miss Sophia, I don't think it will be a good thing to let me take care of her," he replied with a sigh.
He had been involved with quite a few dangerous things and knew there would be many enemies in the future.
Not to mention he didn't have any experience raising a child, so he felt it might not be a good thing for her to be with him.
It would be better to let good parents adopt her who will take care of her and protect her.
After all, she was just a child and should play with kids around her age rather than be in dangerous situations with him.
However, Sophia shook her head helplessly at him.
"Li Wei, you have dangerous enemies, and so do Evelyn," she replied with a wry smile after recalling what this little girl did.
Li Wei was taken aback at her words and looked at her with a question.
"When Evelyn was sold by her parents to a royal family, she used her strength to kill everyone there except her parents before coming to find you because you have the aura of Sera, and she was able to sense it."
"It's just that on the way she killed many people who tried to stop her; they were some princes, a queen, a general, and even a small army made of knights and adventures."
"Not to mention her parents, whom she left alive, sold her information for money to a high-level kingdom," she explained, making Li Wei dumbfounded, who was wondering if the little girl was some reincarnated killing God.
Watching him like this, Sophia chuckled softly.
"Don't worry, her parents were killed by that high-level kingdom to keep Evelyn's matter a secret so only a few people from the Starfrost world know about Evelyn and how she looks."
"Also, Elmoral World will suppress everyone at level 250, so there is no need to worry about them coming to find her here with large numbers as they will alert many people," she added.
Hearing her, Li Wei nodded with relief. There were still many questions, like why some kid like her possessed this much strength, but he knew this must be secret, so he didn't inquire.
