Chapter 875: Reunion, Warmth!
The messenger shook his head and said, "We asked some people who went to the Demon God Relic; they all said they saw Miss Qingran's party leave the Demon God Relic, and accompanying them was the Emperor Sovereign of the Peak of the Hunt."
Yun Batian frowned and said, "Since they all emerged from the Demon God Relic, why haven't they come back yet? Not even a single piece of news!"
"Father, you shouldn't worry so much; perhaps the Emperor Sovereign took Xiao Ran'er out for a mountain‑and‑water trip?"
Yun Batian looked at Yun Zhongyue and, irritated, spat, "Do you think Xiao Ran'er is as unreliable as you, going out to play without even sending a word home?"
Yun Zhongyue: "......"
"Ugh, whatever he says is wrong!"
Yun Zhongge thought for a moment and said, "Could Xiao Ran'er have gone into seclusion to cultivate with the Emperor Sovereign?"
When that remark was made, Yun Batian and Yun Zhongyue threw at him a look that said it all.
This time, Yun Zhongyue jeered, "Yun Zhongge, do you only know cultivation, have you ruined your brain by over‑cultivating? Hiding away to cultivate? Do you think it's double cultivation?"
"Double cultivation?!"
"Double cultivation? It's not impossible!" Yun Zhongge nodded.
Yun Zhongyue rolled her eyes, spread her hands toward Yun Batian, as if saying, "You son is beyond saving!"
At that moment, another person burst in from outside, stumbling, "It's bad..."
Yun Zhongyue's gaze darkened, "Is it the White Tribe again causing trouble?"
"It's not! Miss Qingran has returned!"
"What?!"
Yun Batian and the other two exchanged looks, then their eyes sparkled.
"Quick, go bring her to see me!" Yun Batian said excitedly.
"Yes!" The servant stepped out a few paces, then was called back, "Never mind, we'll go see her ourselves!"
The three of them strode toward the outside.
"Xiao Ge'er, is there something wrong with my bearing?"
Yun Zhongge glared at Yun Zhongyue, "Yes!"
Yun Zhongyue exclaimed, "What's the problem?"
"Too ugly."
Yun Zhongyue: "......."
Yun Batian and his group had just stepped out of the hall when they ran straight into Ye Qingran's returning party.
Everyone had long been curious about Yunfu on Nan Yin Zhou, and when they learned Ye Qingran was returning to Yunfu, they eagerly followed.
After arriving at Yunfu, they were all amazed by the celestial environment of the Yun Tribe's inner city.
"I'd heard the Yun Tribe was a mortal paradise, I didn't believe it, but seeing it today, it truly lives up to its reputation!"
Lu Yunfeng remarked.
The others all nodded in agreement.
The scenery of Yunfu was unanimously regarded as the most beautiful they'd ever seen.
"Xiao Ran'er, you finally came back; I've missed you, little uncle!" Yun Zhongyue was overjoyed, spreading his arms to give his niece a big hug.
Never expected...
... to be embraced by a man.
"Third uncle, hello."
Yun Zhongyue looked at the nearby Fu Hanxiu, and his mouth twitched sharply.
"Good for you!"
"Who's your third uncle!"
Ye Qingran, seeing Yun Zhongyue looking dejected, couldn't help laughing, thinking that Fu Hanxiu was indeed childish; although Yun Zhongyue is a man, he is also her own uncle, and he gets jealous over a simple hug—could it really be that extreme?
"Xiao Ran'er, second uncle misses you so much he's become skinny."
Yun Zhongge kept spouting shocking words without pause.
Ye Qingran was frightened.
Did those words really come from her inarticulate second uncle Yun Zhongge's mouth?
"She must have been soul‑possessed, right?"
"Second uncle? Are you worked up?"
Ye Qingran waved her hand in front of Yun Zhongge, making him feel like a fool.
His ears flushed red, and just as he was about to swear never to say such things again, he heard Ye Qingran say, "Second uncle performed well, continue next time."
Yun Zhongge suddenly laughed, and Yun Zhongyue hurriedly leaned in, plaintively, "Xiao Ran'er, third uncle's belt widens yet he does not regret, for her he becomes haggard~"
Ye Qingran looked speechlessly at Yun Zhongyue, "Third uncle, where's my third aunt?"
Yun Zhongyue: "......"
"Open up, open up, all open up!"
Yun Batian, with a disdainful expression, pushed aside the two sons blocking his way.
"Precious granddaughter, you're back, you missed grandpa, right?"
Ye Qingran shook her head, "No."
Yun Batian: "......"
Yun Batian was heartbroken, his heart felt shattered; his granddaughter didn't miss him, and he didn't want to live!
Ye Qingran's eyes flashed with cunning, "That's impossible..."
Yun Batian was stunned, then realized the granddaughter was teasing him, what a mischievous granddaughter!
"Xiao Ran'er, do you miss third uncle?"
Ye Qingran shook her head, "No."
With Yun Batian's experience, Yun Zhongyue calmly waited for what came next. But after waiting a long time, she got nothing.
"Anything else?"
"What else?" Ye Qingran asked.
Yun Zhongyue tentatively said, "Is that impossible?"
"Oh." Ye Qingran understood, "With you, there's no follow-up; I truly didn't miss you."
Pfft~
That stings!
"Third great-uncle, I can vouch for my mother—she really didn't miss you!"
Xiao Hu looked up, pure and innocent.
Pfft~
That stings again!
Xiao Hu, you don't need to guarantee for your mother on such matters!
"Aiyo, whose little cutie is this?" Yun Batian saw Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen, his old face breaking into a chrysanthemum smile.
"Whose else could it be? It's from the great-great-grandfather's family!"
Oh dear!
Yun Batian's heart was almost melted by cuteness!
In this world, how can there be such a handsome and adorable great-great-grandson?
"Come here, let great-great-grandfather hug you!"
Yun Batian held Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen, one in each hand, looking left and right, extremely satisfied—is this the joy of family?
He really loves this kind of happiness!
As expected, the daughter is reliable—she gave him a granddaughter early, and that granddaughter is also reliable, giving him a great-grandson early!
Around, Xia Zhimeng and the others watched this scene, the corners of their mouths never dropping.
Seeing Sister Ran find family who truly care for her is wonderful.
Hope Sister Ran can find her biological father, and Aunt Yun can wake up soon, so that Sister Ran's life will have no regrets!
Fu Hanxiu felt a gaze full of hostility, turned his head to look, and it was Yun Zhongge's.
"What's wrong, Second Uncle?"
"Hmph!"
Yun Zhongge answered Fu Hanxiu with a cold snort.
Fu Hanxiu: "......"
Who will tell him what he did?
Although there were some minor hiccups, the joy of the family reunion filled every corner of Yun Tribe's inner city.
The Yun Tribe people noticed that after Ye Qingran returned to the Yun Tribe, the tribe's atmosphere became much more relaxed and cheerful.
However, such happiness didn't last long before someone came running to report that the Bai Tribe's clan leader, leading a group of Bai Tribe experts, had arrived outside the Yun Tribe's outer city, with a mighty presence and ill intent.
"What?" Yun Batian's face darkened, "Bai Lei, that guy actually dares to come again?! Last time he slipped away, but this time I won't let him escape—I'll crush him!"
Yun Zhongyue and Yun Zhongge also wore angry faces.
It's these damned Bai Tribe people who prevented them from going to the Demon God Relic!
"Grandfather, don't rush, the Bai Tribe people were lured here by us."
Ye Qingran said leisurely.
