Xin Huohuo had no idea that Bei Mingyuan had seen her "birthmark" long ago.
As it happened, he was one of the very few who had ever seen the Water and Fire Seal in person, so he recognized it at a glance. He was shocked at the time, unable to imagine such a divine relic still existed in the mortal realm. What's more, he had already tested her with his Demonic Qi, seen through her completely, and developed a desire to take it for himself.
"Then… is my dad's disappearance related to the Water and Fire Seal?" Xin Huohuo circled back to her biggest concern.
But this time, when she spoke of her father, the deep-seated grief and anger she'd held onto lessened considerably. 'Maybe Dad had his reasons?' she suddenly wondered.
And Miss Lei did nod, confirming her suspicion. "Ever since your grandfather's generation, the Xin family bloodline has lost every last trace of divine energy. Because of that, it became very difficult to keep the aura of the Water and Fire Seal from leaking out."
