--A little star fell from a shooting star in the sky.
She knew that the one carrying her was Mama, so the sky was her mother.
Then who was her father?
The little sprite told her that her father was the strongest one of all!
A primordial beast lay sleeping beneath the abyss, savage and brutal. For ten thousand years, no living creature had dared approach it.
Until one day, a little girl leaned over the abyss and shouted, "Daddy! Are you sleeping in there?"
Demonic energy spilled out, and the City of the Undying was home to countless creatures that were neither human nor ghost. Its lord was the most fearsome-looking of them all, with a greenish-blue face and tusks.
Until one day, outside the city, a sweet-looking little girl sat on a primordial beast and knocked on the door. "Daddy! Are you home?"
Beneath the vast sea, beyond the reach of humankind, dwelled the Lord of the East Sea. He had a white belly, green eyes, and a serpent's body more than four zhang thick and over a hundred zhang long. He had slept for tens of thousands of years in a dark crevice.
Until one day, the primordial beast and the lord of the City of the Undying split open the vast sea and came right to his lair. They had always minded their own business, and he was just about to swallow them whole.
But then a fair, adorable little girl asked him, "Are you my daddy?"
???
A ferocious beast that had slept for ten thousand years suddenly became a dad?
He was all thumbs, flustered, and overwhelmed. He gathered morning dew and the sweetest nectar to care for his daughter, caught merfolk from the East Sea to make her pretty clothes, and clumsily braided her hair with precious immortal herbs and pearls...
Shooting Star: Daddy, you're pulling my hair~
The ferocious beast looked at his enormous claws and did his best to comb her hair.
But who could have guessed that his sweet little daughter would go around looking for her daddies?
He wasn't the only one!
The beast was about to refuse: You already have one daddy. How many more do you want?
But Star's mouth puckered, and she was about to wail!
The beast, who really wasn't her father, caved and obediently took her around the world to look for her daddies.
Who is my daddy, anyway~~
