Chapter 95: Family Reunion, Nan Tianchen Advances

~8 min read 1,444 words

"My mother is coming?" Nan Feihuang was also very happy.

Although Qian Daoliu was one of the strongest people in the world, he was not one of his own people after all; in his heart, his own mother still gave him the most sense of security.

"Since His Excellency Profound Ice is arriving soon, I can rest easy. Feihuang, you must cultivate diligently; I believe we will have a day to meet again." Qian Renxue came before Nan Feihuang, looking at him with burning eyes as she said goodbye.

Nan Feihuang nodded, "Mm, Xue Jie, take care."

"Let's go, don't be so sentimental. You are both geniuses; sooner or later, you will meet at the pinnacle of the continent." What kind of discernment did Qian Daoliu have? He had already seen Nan Feihuang's extraordinariness. This child was surely a prodigy with innate full soul power, his constitution was very special, and with an excellent family background, sufficient resources, and his own diligent cultivation, he would surely achieve something one day.

Having said that, he took Qian Renxue and flew toward the sky.

Qian Renxue looked back at Nan Feihuang from the sky, "Goodbye, Feihuang. But we won't be separated for too long; it's just that when we meet again, you will be seeing Xue Qinghe."

Watching the three disappear into the horizon, Nan Feihuang took that head bone out of his Spirit Tool. This could be considered a gift from Qian Renxue—a twenty-thousand-year head bone, and a rare sacred attribute one at that. Its value, on the Spirit Master market, could be considered very high.

However, Nan Feihuang did not intend to absorb it; for him, twenty thousand years was still a bit low.

This was not an External Spirit Bone that could grow as its master grew stronger; absorbing it rashly would be equivalent to wasting a slot.

It was better to see who might be suitable for it in the future.

Putting the soul bone away again, Nan Feihuang stood in place and waited quietly. Just as Qian Daoliu had expected, in less than two minutes, he saw several familiar figures.

The person in the lead was none other than Lan Xue. He ran forward excitedly and shouted, "Mother, I'm here!"

"Huang'er!!!" Lan Xue's speed at this moment was so fast that it was estimated that even an Agility Attack System Title Douluo would find it hard to catch up. In one breath, she arrived before Nan Feihuang and pulled him into a hug, "Great, you're fine. Do you know how worried Mother has been these past few days?"

Seeing that her son was safe and sound, Nan Tianchen also breathed a sigh of relief. The days he and Lan Xue had spent worrying until their hearts broke could finally come to an end.

"Mother, I'm sorry, I made you worry." Nan Feihuang gently stroked his mother's back, comforting her in turn.

"Where is the Young Master? Nan Feihuang, is my Young Master not with you?" She Long looked around, but there was no sign of Qian Renxue, which made him very anxious.

"Your Excellency, you need not worry. Before you arrived, Xue Jie's own grandfather and Fifth Grandfather, those two seniors, arrived a step ahead and have already taken her away," Nan Feihuang said.

"Own grandfather and Fifth Grandfather? Could it be the Great Elder and the Five Great Elders?" Hearing Nan Feihuang's words, She Long speculated to himself.

It seemed it was the reinforcements brought by Ci Xue.

Just at this moment, a voice entered his ears via Soul Transmission, "She Long, little Xue'er has already been taken away by me and the Great Elder. You need not worry. I now order you to assist Nan Tianchen in hunting his Eighth Spirit Ring to slightly repay the favor owed to the Gu Lei Kingdom."

Guangling Douluo had not yet gone far, specifically to convey this order to She Long.

"It really is the voice of the Five Great Elders!" Hearing Guangling say this, She Long finally felt completely at ease.

"Yes, Five Great Elders, this subordinate obeys the order." She Long also knew that the people of the Gu Lei Kingdom this time could be considered to have suffered an unprovoked disaster.

They had been hunting Spirit Beasts perfectly fine, and it was he who had deliberately lured that red Spirit Beast over.

If not for Lan Xue's intervention, they would likely have died on the spot. Later, with Nan Feihuang protecting Qian Renxue all the way, the favor the Spirit Hall owed the Gu Lei Kingdom was truly not small.

It could only be repaid bit by bit.

"Your Excellency Profound Ice, although we encountered a crisis this time, fortunately, there was no danger, and everyone is fine. Our Young Master and your son are both safe, which can be considered a blessing in misfortune. But this incident was ultimately triggered by us. As an apology, I am willing to help your husband hunt his Eighth Spirit Ring. Please accept my apologies, Your Excellency," Snake Spear Douluo said with a bow.

With her son safe, Lan Xue also regained her usual composure. She knew that blaming the Spirit Hall too much would do more harm than good to the Gu Lei Kingdom, so it was better to accept his goodwill first.

"Your Excellency Snake Spear is too polite. In that situation, uniting all forces that could be united to survive was human nature. Your Excellency need not blame yourself too much. Lan Xue is willing to accept your apology and, on behalf of my husband, thank you for your willingness to provide help."

Hearing Lan Xue's generous and appropriate reply, Nan Tianchen behind her breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Lan Xue would be relentless toward the Spirit Hall's actions and offend them too deeply.

If they were to become angry out of shame, it would be a catastrophe for the Gu Lei Kingdom.

And he was currently just a Quasi-Soul Douluo who had not yet obtained his Eighth Spirit Ring. Even if he was a king of a country, the ruler of a small nation with weak military power like the Gu Lei Kingdom would never be taken seriously by a Title Douluo, and he would have no chance to talk to a Title Douluo on equal terms.

Throughout this journey, She Long had not paid him any attention; the one he had been talking to was always Lan Xue.

At this moment, he could not intervene in the conversation between the two at all.

Fortunately, as long as her son was by her side, Lan Xue's bearing and temperament would not have any problems. Hearing Lan Xue say this, She Long's expression indeed looked very satisfied, and even carried a few more parts of guilt.

People are so strange; even if there is guilt in their hearts, if the other party is relentless and holds onto it to the end, it will instead force people to be anxious, angry out of shame, and deepen the hatred.

But if the other party acts very magnanimous and does not mind, it will instead increase that sense of guilt, feeling that since the other party is so sensible and righteous, not providing some compensation would really be unreasonable.

The group happened to be in the most suitable area for hunting an Eighth Spirit Ring, and before long, they found a high-level Spirit Beast over fifty thousand years old.

With the full assistance of the two Title Douluo, it was perfectly hunted.

Nan Tianchen also used this spirit ring to break through to the Eighty-first Level, becoming a true Spirit Douluo powerhouse.

After all, Spirit Douluo also has the word "Douluo" in it and is qualified to wear a Douluo Robe; Nan Tianchen was truly in high spirits at that moment.

The only pity was that the fifty-thousand-plus-year Spirit Beast did not drop any soul bone.

Nan Feihuang could not help but sigh; indeed, people's luck is different. He and Qian Renxue could get a precious head bone when hunting a twenty-thousand-year Spirit Beast, while Nan Tianchen only got one spirit ring.

After helping Nan Tianchen successfully hunt the spirit ring and completing the task entrusted by the Five Great Elders, She Long bid farewell to everyone and left.

Lan Xue and Nan Tianchen also prepared to return to the Gu Lei Kingdom immediately.

Along the way, Lan Xue held Nan Feihuang's hand tightly. This time had scared her a bit, and until they were safely home, she remained in a state of level-ten alert, fearing that her son would encounter any more danger.
