Chapter 447

Time flies, and half a year has passed since the Song family held the Foundation Establishment ceremony.

Huang Siyuan, who had lived on Mount Funiu for half a year, had now slowly gotten used to the days here.

On this day, Huang Siyuan had just walked out of her cave dwelling, and didn't expect to run into Song Qingyu, who was rushing straight toward her.

"Sister-in-law, have you been quarreling with Seventh Brother again recently? You were still living there with him before, why did you move back now?"

Seeing Song Qingyu start to tease her as soon as she came up, Huang Siyuan said helplessly: "When did you see me quarreling with him? I think your mouth just likes to talk nonsense.

Back then, in order to trick me into coming back, you even said he was looking for me everywhere when I left. As a result, I only found out later that he didn't have the heart to look for me at all. I really don't know what happened to me in this life, how could I believe whatever you said!"

"Hehe! Sister-in-law, don't be angry. Didn't I do it for your and Seventh Brother's own good back then? How come after you two achieved a positive result, you both came to mock me? I really worked in vain."

Huang Siyuan smiled charmingly: "Alright! I won't argue with you anymore. He has been in closed-door cultivation in the cave dwelling for more than ten days. If you are looking for him, hurry up and go!"

Song Qingyu shook her head and said: "Sister-in-law, I am not looking for Seventh Brother this time, I am actually here to look for you!"

"Look for me? What is it, say it quickly!"

Seeing that Huang Siyuan was somewhat anxious, Song Qingyu immediately took a letter from her body and handed it to her.

"A letter sent by the Huang family, saying that one of your relatives has passed away, and asking you to go back to Mount Taiyuan."

Huang Siyuan opened the letter with a calm expression, looked at it, and then nodded gently.

Ever since Huang Siyuan returned to Qinghe Market after Foundation Establishment a few years ago, the Huang family soon learned of this news. It was not the first time the Huang family had sent a letter to Huang Siyuan in these few years, asking her to return to Mount Taiyuan to take a look.

It's just that Huang Siyuan had been living in Qinghe Market for these few years, and facing the Huang family's many intentional approaches, Huang Siyuan had always been very cold.

After being forced by the family to marry into the Song family back then, the relationship between Huang Siyuan and Song Qingming had actually never been publicized in public. So much so that some young cultivators of the current Song family didn't even know of the existence of this family mistress, let alone other cultivation forces in Qinghe County.

Under such circumstances, Huang Siyuan, who carried the family mission, had always lived in Qinghe Market, and she had almost never been to Mount Funiu a few times, so naturally she couldn't provide too much useful news about the Song family to the Huang family. For the Huang family, Huang Siyuan slowly became a dispensable person.

As a tool for family marriage, in the eyes of those high-and-mighty elders of the Huang family, Huang Siyuan's Dao path and fate were naturally not something they would care about. This was also a thorn that had been stuck in Huang Siyuan's heart for these years.

Later, Huang Siyuan left Qinghe Market to look for Foundation Establishment opportunities outside. Besides her father Huang Xianchen and an aunt who had a good relationship with her, who came to the Song family to ask a few times, no one in the Huang family cared about her life or death.

However, what no one in the Huang family expected was that after Huang Siyuan disappeared for decades, she had already successfully broken through to Foundation Establishment when she returned to Qinghe County. Moreover, Huang Siyuan's success in Foundation Establishment did not rely on the help of the Huang family and the Song family, but was entirely her own efforts and opportunities.

After learning the news of Huang Siyuan's success in Foundation Establishment, the whole Huang family was also full of regret. Especially Huang Shengyue, who had personally decided to marry Huang Siyuan into the Song family as a bargaining chip back then. If she had known earlier that Huang Siyuan, whom she had sent out as a bargaining chip, could successfully break through to Foundation Establishment, Huang Shengyue would never have done such a stupid thing no matter what.

In order to restore the relationship between the Huang family and Huang Siyuan, this Huang family ancestor not only wrote a few letters to Huang Siyuan but also visited Qinghe Market in person to have a good chat with Huang Siyuan. As a result, it still did not change Huang Siyuan's relatively cold attitude toward the Huang family.

Besides being forced into marriage by the family back then, another reason why Huang Siyuan would later be cold toward the Huang family was because of her father, Huang Xianchen.

Ever since Huang Siyuan's mother disappeared inexplicably back then, the status of Huang Siyuan and her father Huang Xianchen in the Huang family also dropped quite a bit, becoming relatively marginal cultivators in the family.

Even if Huang Siyuan later sacrificed herself for the family, Huang Xianchen's status in the Huang family was still not high, and his days were also very ordinary.

When Huang Siyuan left Qinghe Market back then, she also held the determination to burn her bridges and did not tell anyone where she was going. Huang Xianchen also didn't know where she went.

Later, Huang Xianchen also came to the Song family to ask a few times. Although Song Qingming came forward to receive him, he didn't have news of Huang Siyuan at that time either, so he could only tell the truth and send him back.

Because of Huang Siyuan leaving Qinghe Market for no reason, although Song Qingming and the Song family did not pursue this matter deeply, the inside of the Huang family still felt that they had lost face.

Therefore, they also punished Huang Xianchen and sent him to guard a relatively dangerous mineral vein of the family. As a result, within a few years, the somewhat unlucky Huang Xianchen encountered a group of demon beasts besieging that mineral vein because of bad luck and accidentally died in the hands of the demon beasts.

Song Qingming didn't know about Huang Xianchen's matter at first, and only knew about it after a long time. For this father-in-law of his, Song Qingming actually had never been very familiar with him.

Although this was an internal matter of the Huang family and Song Qingming couldn't say much, after hearing about this matter later, Song Qingming still went to Mount Taiyuan in person to pay his respects, which could be considered as fulfilling some filial piety for Huang Siyuan.

After Huang Siyuan returned to Qinghe County and learned about her father Huang Xianchen's matter, she was also very angry in her heart. Besides going to Huang Xianchen's grave to pay her respects to her father when she first returned, she had never returned to Mount Taiyuan in these few years.

Holding the letter in her hand, after hesitating for a moment, Huang Siyuan turned and came to the outside of Song Qingming's cave dwelling not far away, and sent a sound transmission talisman inside.

Before long, as the formation prohibition at the door of the cave dwelling slowly dissipated, Huang Siyuan walked in quickly.

Seeing that Huang Siyuan's complexion was somewhat ugly, Song Qingming, who had just finished his cultivation, hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern: "Siyuan! What happened?"

"Just received a letter from Mount Taiyuan, Aunt Yuan passed away yesterday. I want to go back and see her off." After Huang Siyuan finished speaking, she handed the letter in her hand to Song Qingming.

Having known Huang Siyuan for so many years, Song Qingming naturally also heard Huang Siyuan mention this aunt of hers and knew that this Aunt Yuan was one of the few elders in the Huang family who truly cared about Huang Siyuan.

"After you left Qinghe Market back then, she also came to Mount Funiu to inquire about your news. It can be seen that she is an elder who truly cares about you. Now that the old lady has left, it is only right for you to go and see her off."

"Then I will go and reply to Mount Taiyuan first, and go back in two days." Huang Siyuan nodded, turned and walked toward the outside of the cave dwelling.

"Wait a moment! Siyuan."

Looking at Huang Siyuan who turned around with a puzzled face, Song Qingming stepped forward and grabbed her jade hand, and said softly: "You have married me for so many years, and I haven't accompanied you back once. In two days, I will go back with you!"

"Hmm!" Looking at Song Qingming's look of concern, Huang Siyuan nodded calmly and responded, then turned and walked out slowly.

Two days later, outside Mount Taiyuan.

Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan had just arrived at the foot of Mount Taiyuan. Before the sound transmission talisman in Huang Siyuan's hand was released, a white sword light suddenly flew down from the mountain and landed beside the two before long.

"Mengde greets Family Head Song, Great-Aunt!"

Song Qingming took a look at the person who came and realized that this person was exactly Huang Mengde, a Foundation Establishment cultivator of the Huang family who had just successfully broken through to Foundation Establishment ten years ago.

This Huang Mengde, like Song Yuanli, was also a dual-spirit-root cultivator. Now his cultivation had reached the third layer of Foundation Establishment, and his future Dao path prospects were far better than his elder Huang Sipo.

After Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan greeted Huang Mengde, the three of them soon walked up Mount Taiyuan together.

I don't know if it was because they knew Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan were coming, but the funeral held by the Huang family for Huang Xianyuan this time was very grand, far exceeding the treatment that an ordinary Qi Condensation cultivator should have.

Seeing the white flags inserted all the way and the noisy gongs and drums coming from the mountain, Song Qingming was also somewhat surprised. When the Song family held a funeral for Great Elder Song Qingsi a year ago, it was already considered very willing to spend spirit stones. I didn't expect the Huang family to hold it even more grandly than them this time.

Just arriving at the greeting hall at the top of the mountain, Huang Shengyue, who had been waiting here, saw Huang Siyuan and hurriedly greeted her with a smile.

"Siyuan, Family Head Song, you have worked hard all the way. Go to the back hall to drink tea and rest for a while first."

After letting Huang Mengde take Song Qingming to the side to drink tea, Huang Shengyue found an excuse to pull Huang Siyuan to a compartment on the side and asked about her well-being.

However, facing this elder Huang Shengyue, who was intentionally lowering her face to please her, Huang Siyuan was still very indifferent, always keeping a distance from her, and her expression never had any big changes.

Besides Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan, those who came to participate in this funeral also included many Qi Condensation families under the Huang family, as well as some rogue cultivators who were on good terms. After being lively for a whole day, Mount Taiyuan slowly returned to calm.

Because of Huang Shengyue's constant retention, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan did not leave immediately after participating in the funeral, but chose to stay on Mount Taiyuan for one night.

Early the next morning, Huang Siyuan took Song Qingming to the back mountain to Huang Xianchen's grave to pay her respects to her father.

Compared to more than ten years ago when Song Qingming came for the first time, Huang Xianchen's tombstone now looked much better and more gorgeous. It was thought that because of Huang Siyuan, the Huang family had specially rebuilt Huang Xianchen's tomb in these few years.

"When I first came back, my father's tombstone was almost blurred and invisible. Now they are actually more filial than I, a daughter, am." Huang Siyuan slowly put down the sacrificial items she brought in front of her father's tombstone.

Hearing the words in Huang Siyuan's mouth, Song Qingming smiled gently and didn't say much, and took the initiative to step forward to help her pour a few cups of spirit wine and placed them in front of Huang Xianchen's tombstone.
