Chapter 41: Family

Walking through the familiar streets, Ye Qingxuan stood at his own door, hesitating to move forward.

He didn't use spiritual power or spiritual sense to probe, but like a mortal without cultivation, looked nervously at the door of his home close at hand.

After taking a deep breath, Ye Qingxuan finally gathered the courage to knock on the door in front of him.

"Dong! Dong! Dong!"

Hearing the knocking, a voice familiar to Ye Qingxuan came from outside the house:

"Who is it?"

Immediately afterward, the door slowly opened. The moment Ye Mu saw Ye Qingxuan, she was stunned. Looking at Ye Qingxuan, who was strange yet carried a familiar aura, she couldn't believe it:

"You... are you... are you Xuan'er?"

Looking at his mother's gradually aging face and gradually whitening hair, at this moment, Ye Qingxuan could no longer control himself, holding back the tears in his eyes, he stepped forward to hug his mother, trembling:

"Mom, I'm back!"

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's words, Ye Mu looked up and held Ye Qingxuan's face, looking and looking, and suddenly cried with joy:

"It's Xuan'er, my Xuan'er is back, my Xuan'er is back!"

Then she hurriedly shouted into the house:

"Old man, Xuan'er is back, Xuan'er is back, come out quickly."

Immediately afterward, a clattering sound came from the house, and a figure walked out of the room quickly. After seeing Ye Qingxuan's figure, he paused, his expression a bit dazed.

Seeing this figure, Ye Qingxuan smiled with tears:

"Dad, I'm back!"

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's words, Ye Fu finally came back to his senses and pretended to be calm:

"Good! Good! It's good to be back!"

But his hands behind his back couldn't stop trembling!

After noticing this, Ye Qingxuan revealed a smile in his eyes; Father was still the same father as before!

Stepping forward to give his father a hug, he then entered the house under Ye Mu's greeting.

Inside the house, Ye Qingxuan listened to his mother's narration and questioning.

What was narrated were the things that had happened at home over the past twenty-plus years, and what was asked were Ye Qingxuan's experiences over the past twenty-plus years.

Occasionally, Ye Fu would interject to add a few points, drawing a roll of eyes from Ye Mu.

And Ye Qingxuan watched this scene warmly without interjecting.

As time passed, Ye Fu and Ye Mu's emotions gradually calmed down. After recovering, Ye Fu seemed to have remembered something, looked at Ye Qingxuan with slight pride and said:

"By the way, you now have a younger brother and a younger sister. Your brother is named Ye Qingao, twenty years old this year; your sister is named Ye Qingying, sixteen years old this year!"

Looking at Ye Fu's proud expression, Ye Mu couldn't help but hit Ye Fu.

And hearing this, Ye Qingxuan said with pleasant surprise:

"Really? Then where are my brother and sister now?"

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's inquiry, Ye Fu said angrily:

"Qingao went to the Library Pavilion, as for Qingying, that girl plays wildly outside all day, and won't come back until night."

Speaking of Ye Qingying, Ye Fu had a headache. A girl, acting like a child king outside all day? Doesn't she look at how old she is?

"If this girl could be as steady as you, I would be content!"

Fortunately, Qingao was still sensible, usually just going to the Library Pavilion to read books, which was a bit like his eldest son.

Ye Mu, hearing Ye Fu's sigh, couldn't help but glare at Ye Fu and dismantle his platform:

"Qingying girl is like this, isn't it because you, the father, spoil her?"

Ye Fu looked at Ye Mu's gaze, smiled awkwardly, and didn't speak.

Ye Qingxuan smiled secretly, and the next moment seemed to have remembered something, so he asked:

"Dad, Mom, now that I have a younger brother and sister, let's change to a bigger house, right?"

Ye Qingxuan's home was a small courtyard, the room was not small, but now that his brother and sister had grown up, changing to a bigger house was still very necessary.

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's suggestion, Ye Mu suddenly fell silent. Finally, Ye Fu slowly said:

"After you left, the family arranged a big mansion for us, but your mother was worried that if we moved away, you wouldn't be able to find us when you came back, so we never moved."

Ye Qingxuan was stunned, his nose slightly sour, and he smiled bitterly:

"Dad, Mom, your son is back, let's move to a new house tomorrow."

This time, Ye Mu hesitated for a moment, thought of Ye Qingao and Ye Qingying, and finally nodded in agreement.

Near evening, Ye Fu and Ye Mu were busy in the kitchen, and Ye Qingxuan sat alone in the small courtyard.

At this time, the gate of the small courtyard was suddenly opened, and a young man walked in from outside, his appearance vaguely similar to Ye Qingxuan.

Looking at Ye Qingxuan sitting in his own small courtyard, the young man asked hesitantly:

"Who are you?"

Looking at the young man in front of him, Ye Qingxuan already understood and smiled:

"Qingao? I am your eldest brother, Ye Qingxuan."

"You are my eldest brother? Eldest brother, you are finally back! Hahaha!"

Ye Qingao had known since he was a child that he had an eldest brother who went out to cultivate immortality. He had also been very yearning for immortal cultivation since he was a child, but unfortunately, he had no spiritual roots and could only understand the outside immortal cultivation world through the Library Pavilion.

He didn't expect that his eldest brother, who had stepped onto the path of immortal cultivation, would suddenly return today. Ye Qingao was very excited and pestered Ye Qingxuan to tell him about the outside immortal cultivation world.

Looking at his younger brother who had no sense of strangeness toward him, Ye Qingxuan flashed a smile in his eyes and began to tell him about the outside immortal cultivation world.

But most of the content he told was what Ye Qingxuan had learned from the Profound Heaven Sect's Library Pavilion. After all, he hadn't gone out to roam, and for the time being, he hadn't personally experienced the outside immortal cultivation world.

Of course, he wouldn't tell Ye Qingao all this.

Just as he was telling, a loud and crisp voice suddenly came from outside the small courtyard:

"Dad, Mom, can we eat dinner? I'm hungry!"

Followed by a burst of happy footsteps.

Hearing this voice, Ye Qingao immediately covered his face with a helpless look.

And Ye Qingxuan was a bit curious. This should be his younger sister, Ye Qingying, right? This personality is inconsistent with her name!

Soon, Ye Qingying walked into the small courtyard.

Looking at Ye Qingxuan and Ye Qingao in the courtyard, she tilted her little head, her exquisite face full of confusion, and raised her finger to point at Ye Qingxuan:

"Brother, who is he?"

Ye Qingao saw Ye Qingying pointing at Ye Qingxuan, his face sank, and he scolded:

"Little sister, don't be rude, this is our eldest brother!"

"Eldest brother?"

Ye Qingying bit her finger, seeming to be thinking about something, suddenly her eyes lit up, and she stretched out a hand toward Ye Qingxuan.

Ye Qingxuan was stunned:

"What?"

"Of course it's a gift?"

Ye Qingying couldn't help but roll her eyes at Ye Qingxuan. Her eldest brother seemed stupid and didn't look very smart.

Ye Qingxuan suddenly realized. This time he came back, except for some elixirs prepared for his parents, he didn't seem to have prepared other gifts.

After pondering for a moment, Ye Qingxuan looked at Ye Qingying and asked:

"Elixirs, do you want them?"

This time he came back, he prepared quite a few elixirs that mortals could use.

"Elixirs?"

Hearing Ye Qingxuan's words, Ye Qingying's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly asked:

"Are there any elixirs that make people have diarrhea?"

"Ha?"

Ye Qingxuan was at a loss. Diarrhea? He couldn't keep up with his younger sister's thinking, and shook his head with a bitter smile:

"No!"

"Ah! Is that so? Then forget it!"

Ye Qingying heard that there were no elixirs for diarrhea, and shook her head in disappointment.

Seeing Ye Qingao on the side looking envious, if you don't want other elixirs, can you give them to me?

Seeing Ye Qingying looking disappointed, Ye Qingxuan's heart moved, and he took out a cyan elixir:

"Do you want this kind of elixir?"

"What kind of elixir is this?"

Ye Qingying looked at the elixir in Ye Qingxuan's hand with curiosity.

Ye Qingxuan didn't speak, but pinched it with his hand. After the elixir was broken, it turned into starlight and merged with the surrounding spiritual energy, starting to constantly pull the spiritual energy to form a more dazzling brilliance.

This was the Qi-Inducing Pill he refined many years ago. Because the price was too low, it had never been sold.

Seeing this, Ye Qingying shouted excitedly:

"Wow, eldest brother, I want this kind of elixir."

Little stars appeared in Ye Qingying's eyes. She had already started to imagine in her mind what she would look like as a god-mother in front of her little friends.

"Hehehehe!"

Seeing Ye Qingying start to giggle for no reason, Ye Qingxuan stepped forward and knocked on her little head:

"What are you thinking about?"

Being knocked by Ye Qingxuan, Ye Qingying came back to her senses, covered her head with both hands, pouted, and didn't answer Ye Qingxuan's words.

Seeing this, Ye Qingxuan raised his eyebrows, took out another cyan Qi-Inducing Pill, and tossed it up and down in his hand.

With the tossing of the Qi-Inducing Pill, Ye Qingying's little eyes couldn't help but look over, staring straight at the Qi-Inducing Pill in Ye Qingxuan's hand.

Sensing Ye Qingying's little movements, Ye Qingxuan stopped teasing her, took out all the Qi-Inducing Pills, put them in a cloth bag, and handed them to Ye Qingying.

Ye Qingying couldn't wait to take the Qi-Inducing Pills and hurriedly ran toward her room, not forgetting to thank him before leaving:

"Thank you, eldest brother, hehehehe!"

Before the voice fell, Ye Qingying's little figure disappeared.

Afterward, Ye Qingxuan took out a few bottles of elixirs and handed them to Ye Qingao, who was envious on the side:

"This is the Body-Strengthening Pill, which can gradually improve your physique. Take one pill a day."

Ye Qingao took the Body-Strengthening Pill with pleasant surprise and said happily:

"Thank you, eldest brother!"

Having a younger brother and a younger sister, Ye Qingxuan was very happy, but unfortunately, his younger brother and younger sister had no spiritual roots! ===== CHAPTER 42 =====
