“Alright.”
Qianbei Ye nodded gently before he wrapped his arm around Gu Ruoyun and stepped outside...
Not too long after, the palace gates were filled with familiar faces.
Grand Lord Hong Lian, Dongfang Yu, Gu Shengxiao, Zuo Shangchen, Xiao Xun’er, the freckled maiden Gu Wanbai, and the brazen-faced Holy Doctor, Bai Zhongtian, who had insisted on coming along were there. Supreme Jin, Lan Ge, and the others have also come to send them off...
“Will you be back?” Lan Ge looked at Gu Ruoyun as he asked.
Gu Ruoyun fell silent for a moment. “Perhaps. If I don’t return, you can come to the West Spirit Mainland to look for me.”
“Alright.”
Lan Ge’s eyes lit up as the corners of his lips lifted into a gentle smile. “I will look for you in the West Spirit Mainland.”
Gu Ruoyun smiled and did not say very much else. She then turned around and said, “Let’s go, Maternal Grandfather has been waiting for us for so long. It’s about time for us to return to that place now.”
Dongfang Yu’s eyes filled with excitement as if she remembered her elderly father who had been separated from her for a very long time. She squeezed Grand Lord Hong Lian’s hand as her eyes shone with a faint radiance.
Once Gu Ruoyun had spoken, the group journeyed towards the West Spirit Mainland. Based on their current measure of power, only a short amount of time passed before they arrived on the West Spirit Mainland...
Meanwhile, at a mountain range near the Spirit Sect, the Honorable Sir Tianqi was glaring angrily at the Honorable Poison Master who was chasing him relentlessly. He spat angrily, “You old geezer, why are you still trying to kill me? Let’s not forget that you’ve already pledged to serve the Gu girl. I’m the Gu girl’s great uncle. You’re actually undermining your superior!”
The Honorable Poison Master scoffed and replied viciously, “Old man, you keep spying on me whenever I visit brothels so why shouldn’t I kill you? You know too much. If I don’t kill you, my good name would be disgraced. 1 ”
The Honorable Sir Tianqi was so enraged that he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. “If you want to kill me, that would depend on whether you have that ability. Don’t think that I’m actually afraid of you. I, the Honorable Sri Tianqi, have never feared anyone.”
The Honorable Poison Master did not say anything else. He was just about to release an attack upon the Honorable Sir Tianqi when a crack appeared in the sky. Powerful energy burst out from the crack and filled both of them with vigilance.
“Who is it?”
The two old men no longer cared about killing each other and quickly looked at the crack. However, when they saw the numerous figures who had appeared from thin air, their bodies instantly stiffened.
“Gu girl, Sir Qianbei, you’re back?” The Honorable Sir Tianqi had just returned to his senses when he noticed two familiar figures behind Gu Ruoyun. His expression froze once again, “A-aren’t you Gu Tian and Dongfang Yu?”
Even though Gu Ruoyun had previously sent word that her parents were alive back to the Dongfang family, it was a completely different thing to see them with their own eyes. The Honorable Sir Tianqi’s eyes opened wide and his face filled with shock when he saw Grand Lord Hong Lian.
Once the shock passed, it was followed by a powerful sense of joy.
They’re back!
They’ve finally returned!
“Honorable Sir Tianqi, Honorable Poison Master, long time no see.” Gu Ruoyun greeted the two old men. “I wonder if we can go to the Dongfang family home together? I haven’t seen Maternal Grandfather and Grandmother in such a long time. We’ve returned this time to reunite Mother with her family.”
The Honorable Poison Master was the first to return to his senses and nodded. He forced a smile with great difficulty as if his face was suffering from paralysis and said, “Alright.”
“The Gu girl’s invitation was for me, it has nothing to do with you!” The Honorable Sir Tianqi snapped as he glared at the Honorable Poison Master. He then turned towards Gu Ruoyun and grinned. “Little girl, your maternal grandfather and grandmother have been waiting for you for far too long. Come, let’s go home now. Hahaha!”
It was obvious that Gu Ruoyun’s return has put him in a great mood. His elderly features were filled with smiles.
The Dongfang family home.
Master Dongfang was chastizing Dongfang Shaoze in the study. His expression was a particularly ugly sight as he scolded, “You damned brat, how old are you now? Yet you still have no concept of taking a wife and making babies! Do you intend to prevent an old man like me from having any grandchildren to hold at my age?”
Dongfang Shaoze maintained his kindly, jade-like demeanor as if he had not taken Master Dongfang’s words to heart.
Lan Yuge could no longer bear to watch this and gently knitted her crescent-shaped brows. “Shaoze has his own sense of propriety, there’s no use to force these things no matter how much you try. You should just work hard in your cultivation and take advantage of the time to quickly reunite with Yun’er and the other at the East Peak Mainland.”
When faced with his own wife, Master Dongfang could not vent his frustrations no matter how angry he was feeling. He could only scoff coldly and sulk alone.
“Master, Madam, Young Master!”
Just then, a hasty voice was heard from a distance.
The little footboy did not wait for Master Dongfang to reply as he threw the door open immediately. As he had been running too fast, he staggered before he stumbled and fell onto the ground.
“What’s the rush... This is a disgrace!”
Since Master Dongfang had no way of venting his anger and this little footboy had presented himself as a sacrifice, it would have been strange if he had been able to speak civilly at this point.
The little footboy wiped the sweat from his brow and exclaimed, “Master, the maternal Eldest Lady has returned!”
“What, Yun’er’s back?”
Master Dongfang abruptly stood up. His expression was overjoyed as he asked, “Is this true? Is Yun’er really back?”
“It’s indeed the truth. Also, the Eldest Lady and son-in-law have returned as well.”
The little footboy had grown up in the Dongfang family home. He was no longer young so he would naturally know about the Eldest Lady of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Yu.
Master Dongfang was in shock. He quickly grabbed the little footboy’s lapels as his breathing grew nervous. “Are you talking about Dongfang Yu, Yu’er?”
“Yes, Master, they’ve all returned.”
Zoom!
As soon as Master Dongfang had heard this, he instantly charged out of the door in a flash and his figure soon disappeared from sight.
Lan Yuge smiled. She suppressed the excitement in her heart and said to Dongfang Shaoze, “Ze’er, your sister and brother-in-law have returned. Let’s go and greet them.”
Gu Ruoyun paused as she entered the Dongfang family home’s courtyard. She then saw Master Dongfang who was rushing out towards them.
When Master Dongfang arrived in front of them, he stopped and fixed his gaze squarely upon Dongfang Yu’s beautiful features. His lips trembled as he spoke.
“Yu’er, is it you? Is it really you?”
Dongfang Yu smiled and stepped forward before she said, “Father, someone had saved me back then. However, I had to promise that person that I wouldn’t leave that place without completing my closed door cultivation for twenty years. Hence, I had not been able to return to see you all this while. I’ve been an unfilial daughter and caused you to worry for so many years.”
Master Dongfang wiped the tears from his eyes. His eyes were shining with excitement. “It’s good that you’re back. As long as you’re back, all is well. Oh, right. these two kids are...”
Master Dongfang was very familiar with the evildoer, Zuo Shangchen, but Xun’er and Gu Wanbai were strangers to him.
“Grandfather.” Gu Ruoyun smiled lightly. “This little girl is Gu Wanbai. Sh’s my disciple. As for him... He’s my son, Xiao Xun’er.”
“Your son?”
Master Dongfang was in shock. My maternal granddaughter even has a son now? How much have I missed?
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and turned towards Dongfang Shaoze who had tagged along with Lan Yuge. He then scolded Dongfang Shaoze angrily, “Look here, even your niece has a son now while you don’t even have a wife. Hurry up, find a wife and bring her home. Otherwise, I won’t acknowledge you as my son!”
Even Gu Ruoyun has a son now. Though Dongfang Shaoze was her uncle, he was still unmarried. How could Master Dongfang not feel angry?
“Great Maternal Grandfather.” Xiao Xun’er inclined his head adorably. “My mother says that feelings should be allowed take their natural course. How can you force Great Uncle to get a wife? That’s not good. What if he randomly brings a woman home just to appease you. Wouldn’t that have hurt that woman for the rest of her life?”
Master Dongfang was stunned for a moment. He never expected the little fellow to be so intelligent and sensible at this age. His heart immediately brimmed with joy and the more he looked at him, the more he liked him.
“You are certainly descended from the Dongfang family tree but there’s a clear difference between you and the rest. Hahaha!”
“You old geezer, you certainly have no sense of shame.” Lan Yuge followed closely behind him and shook her head in exasperation. Her gentle eyes gazed upon Xiao Xun’er and joyfully pulled him into her arms. “Xiao Xun’er, will you call me your great maternal grandmother so I can hear it?”
Xiao Xun’er blinked and replied in a lovable manner, “Great Maternal Grandmother, my maternal grandmother and mother have always talked about you. They say that you’re the best. Xun’er has always wanted to meet you.”
“You little thing, you have such a sweet mouth at such a young age.” Lan Yuge happily kissed Xiao Xun’er and smiled before she turned to look at the others. “Yu’er, it’s wonderful that you’re back. I always believed that you were both still alive. Now that our family is reunited, we should celebrate. Come, let’s go inside and talk.”
Dongfang Yu smiled gently as she replied, “Alright.”
The Dongfang family home was filled with memories of her youth. Now that she has stepped into her home again, she felt somewhat emotional.
Grand Lord Hong Lian held her tightly. Tenderness filled his black eyes as if she was the only thing that exists in his gaze.
“Yun’er.” Qianbei Ye smiled before murmured into Gu Ruoyun’s ear, “Now that Cang Ming is dead, we don’t have much else to do. How about giving me a few more children?”
Gu Ruoyun was shaken for a moment.
Before she could return to her senses, she was swept off her feet and carried in that man’s arms towards the rear courtyard...
The West Spirit Mainland’s sky was no longer covered with gloom as it once was half a month ago. The skies were now clear as if a great storm has just passed and was a blinding shade of blue...
