Chapter 235: Reunion

After learning of Xiao Sanxiao's experiences, the group was shocked for a moment, but having already weathered so many great storms, they quickly calmed down.

Duan Fengyun asked:

"Senior, the great battle between me and the Dragon Turtle just now didn't even draw anyone out to investigate. Is this place still very far from where Youruo and the others live?"

Qin Shuang and the others only then suddenly realized; that's right, the battle between Duan Fengyun and the Dragon Turtle just now could be called earth-shattering, yet no one had come out to watch.

Xiao Sanxiao nodded and said:

"That is correct. The area of Linggui Island is quite large, and Youruo and the others all live in the center of the island.

Generally, no one comes to this side, which is why no one came to watch the battle between you brat and the Dragon Turtle just now.

However, you brat are indeed a talent; to actually be able to fuse and use the Dragon Essence and Qilin Blood, I admire you immensely. You really are a monster."

Duan Fengyun scratched his head and laughed:

"Perhaps I am naturally gifted, or maybe I am the chosen one."

After rolling his eyes, Xiao Sanxiao led the five of them toward the center of the island.

Upon approaching the center of the island, Duan Fengyun and the others saw smoke slowly rising; they had arrived at the village on Linggui Island.

Just then, as a few young people passed by, they greeted Xiao Sanxiao upon seeing him:

"Greetings, Clan Leader!"

Xiao Sanxiao smiled and acknowledged them.

The fact that Xiao Sanxiao was their Clan Leader did not surprise Duan Fengyun and the others; what surprised them was that these young people had light footsteps and steady breathing—they were clearly experts in their own right.

Duan Fengyun and the others had not expected there to be such excellent young people on Linggui Island.

But as they encountered more people, the group became increasingly astonished.

Because the people they met were basically all equal in strength to the youths from just before, and some were even better.

Duan Fengyun could finally no longer suppress his curiosity, and he asked inquisitively:

"Senior, why does everyone on this island look so formidable?"

Xiao Sanxiao laughed:

"Do you think I have lived for thousands of years in vain?

The people on this island are all my descendants. I have placed all the martial arts Cultivation Methods I have collected over thousands of years on this island for them to study.

Furthermore, I also provided many seeds of rare medicinal herbs on the island back then; as long as they put in some effort, they can all possess some skill."

Duan Fengyun and the others continued walking toward the center of the village, and just as they were about to arrive, they encountered a group of children playing.

They saw two little boys around seven years old and another little girl of similar age, the three of them jumping around four or five other children of the same age.

The joyful laughter made Long Er yearn for it; he had had no companions since he was young, and he also really wanted to have this kind of childhood feeling.

After the little ones were done playing, the boy who looked slightly older said to the little girl and the little boy:

"Bu Tian, Ruoruo, it's time for us to go home and eat.

If Mother and Aunt Chuchu come looking for us later, we're going to get a beating again."

"Alright, Brother Wuyou, we understand."

Hearing this, the little boy and the little girl had no choice but to put away their playfulness and follow him back.

Their conversation was very quiet, but in Duan Fengyun's mind, it was like a bolt from the blue.

He muttered:

"Brother Wuyou, Ruoruo, Bu Tian."

Then, Duan Fengyun ran toward the three little ones as if he had gone mad, and Nie Feng and the others hurriedly rushed after him upon seeing this.

Nie Feng asked:

"Junior Brother Duan, what is wrong with these children?

Did you discover something?"

Duan Fengyun ignored Nie Feng; he carefully and tentatively asked:

"Little ones, can you tell me what your names are?

Uncle has some delicious candy here. If you tell Uncle, Uncle will give it to you to eat."

The three little ones shook their heads, and the older one replied:

"Uncle, Mother told us not to take things from strangers.

But I can tell you our names.

My name is Duan Wuyou, and she is my twin sister Duan Ruoruo; we look very much alike, don't we?

This is Bu Tian, our little brother."

Duan Wuyou answered very normally, but when Duan Fengyun heard him say the names, his entire eye sockets became moist.

Duan Fengyun said with moist eyes:

"Little Wuyou, Little Ruoruo, I have finally found you!"

And Bu Jingyun, who had come to his senses, also grabbed and hugged Bu Tian; he had just felt that this little fellow was very similar to himself, and he never expected it to be his own son, Bu Tian.

Smiles also bloomed on the faces of Nie Feng and Qin Shuang; they had finally found Little Wuyou and the others.

And there was also a wave of joy on Long Er's face; looking at this, he would soon have two good younger brothers and one good younger sister, and very soon he would be able to travel the world with his younger siblings.

Struggling in Bu Jingyun's arms, Bu Tian said:

"Let me go, you bad person.

My mother and the others will definitely bring people to deal with you later."

And when Little Wuyou and Little Ruoruo saw Bu Tian being grabbed by Bu Jingyun, thinking that Duan Fengyun and the others were harmful people, the two little ones took to their heels—they were going back to call for reinforcements.

Watching the two little ones run away, Nie Feng was about to go after them, but was stopped by Duan Fengyun.

"Feng, no need to chase them."

"Let's follow behind them and give Youruo and the others a surprise."

Bu Jingyun held Bu Tian, letting Bu Tian punch and kick in his arms, yet Bu Jingyun still held Bu Tian peacefully.

This scene caused Duan Fengyun and the others to drop their jaws in total shock; the dignified Uncrying Death God actually had such a tender side.

Bu Jingyun held Bu Tian, and this Uncrying Death God, who had traversed the Jianghu for decades, choked out with the tenderness of a tough man:

"Tian'er, Father has finally seen you all again.

Father has missed you and your mother so much all these years."

Upon hearing Bu Jingyun's words, Bu Tian stopped struggling; he stared blankly at Bu Jingyun, then he remembered what his mother had told him.

"Your father is a great hero with a backbone of steel, and he also has a pitch-black, strangely shaped Peerless Sword."

Bu Tian stretched his head out, and after seeing that the black sword on Bu Jingyun's back was exactly the same as the Peerless Sword his mother had described, he looked at Bu Jingyun in disbelief and asked:

"Are you really my father?"

Bu Jingyun nodded and choked out:

"Tian'er, I am your father, I am Bu Jingyun."

Upon hearing the name Bu Jingyun, Bu Tian immediately hugged Bu Jingyun and cried:

"Father, you finally came to pick up me and Mother, why did you take so long?"

Hearing Bu Tian's words, Bu Jingyun hugged Bu Tian tightly in shame, his face full of guilt.

Seeing the father and son reunited, Duan Fengyun was also looking forward to the moment he would reunite with Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Ruoruo.

With Bu Tian leading the way, the group soon arrived at the residence of Youruo and the others.

And after Bu Tian saw Bu Jingyun carrying him as he flew through the sky and traversed the earth, he hugged Bu Jingyun tightly.

This was the father in his heart, a great hero with immense martial arts.

The group lived in a small courtyard, and the style of the small courtyard had quite the feel of the Duanqing Ju from back then.

The group stood silently to one side of the courtyard; at this moment, Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Ruoruo, who had run off to seek help, finally arrived home.

"Mother, Aunt Chuchu, Aunt Ding Ning, Aunt Meng, it's bad, Bu Tian has been captured by bad guys."

Xiao Wuyou had just reached the courtyard entrance when she raised her voice and shouted.

Youruo and the other three, who were still washing clothes and cooking in the courtyard with the three little ones, ran out of the courtyard in a panic after hearing Xiao Wuyou's voice.

Chuchu ran to Xiao Wuyou and asked:

"Wuyou, what did you say? Bu Tian was captured by bad guys?"

Xiao Wuyou nodded and said:

"Yes, Aunt Chuchu, Bu Tian was captured by a few bad guys I have never seen before."

Ding Ning asked:

"Xiao Wuyou, what do the bad guys look like? Aunt Ding Ning will go deal with them right now."

Duan Fengyun and his three brothers, who were standing to the side, saw their wives—whom they hadn't seen for a long time and who remained unchanged—and, unable to suppress their longing, walked out from the side.

When Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Ruoruo saw Duan Fengyun and the others walking out, they hurriedly pointed their little hands at them and said:

"Mother, Aunt Chuchu, Aunt Ding Ning, Aunt Meng, they are the ones who captured Bu Tian."

After hearing the words of Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Ruoruo, Youruo and the other three looked in the direction the two little ones were pointing.

"Thump."

After seeing Duan Fengyun and the other three opposite them, the items in the hands of Youruo and the others fell to the ground; the four of them looked at Duan Fengyun and the others with red, moist eyes.

In the end, they could not hold back, and they strode forward to hug their respective husbands.

Youruo and the other three said in unison:

"Why did you only come now!"

Duan Fengyun and the other three answered in unison:

"I'm sorry, it is we who came late!"

And the curious Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Ruoruo walked up in front of Duan Fengyun and Youruo.

After Duan Fengyun let go of Youruo, Youruo stroked the heads of the two little ones and said:

"Didn't you two ask what Father looks like?

Didn't you ask when Father would come to pick you up?

Look, Father has come to pick you up now."

Upon hearing their mother say that the person before them was their father, Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Ruoruo stretched out their arms and directly wrapped themselves around Duan Fengyun's shoulders.

The two little ones choked out:

"Father, are you really our father?

Why did you only come to pick us up now?

Mother told us every day that you would come to pick us up, but we waited for a long time and you never came."

At this moment, the man who made Xiongba afraid, made Jue Wushen powerless, made the entire Dongying tremble, and now made the entire Jianghu turn pale at the mention of his name, had tears fall directly from his eyes onto the ground.

Just as he had when the two little ones were young, Duan Fengyun picked up Xiao Wuyou with his left hand and Xiao Ruoruo with his right, and he choked out:

"Xiao Wuyou, Xiao Ruoruo, it is Father who has failed you.

Blame Father for not coming to pick you up sooner; it is Father's fault!"

Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Ruoruo lay obediently on Duan Fengyun's shoulders and said:

"We don't blame Father; Mother told us that Father left us here for our own safety.

Mother told us that Father is a great hero who stands tall between heaven and earth!"

At this moment, hearing the voices of the two little ones, all thoughts of immortality, all thoughts of grand ambitions were cast to the back of Duan Fengyun's mind; he only wanted to hold his son and daughter tightly.

And Long Er stepped forward at this time, hugged Duan Fengyun's leg, and said:

"Dad, are these my younger brother, younger sister, and mother?"

As soon as Long Er said this, the gazes of Youruo, Ding Ning, and the others all turned toward Duan Fengyun.

Duan Fengyun was cursing inwardly right now:

"This Long Er, he hasn't learned anything good, why did he have to learn all these pitfall moves of mine?"

Seeing the way Long Er was setting Duan Fengyun up, Nie Feng and the other two were outwardly holding back their laughter, but were laughing their heads off inside.

"Letting you mess with people all the time, today someone finally put you in your place."

Youruo reached out directly, pinched Duan Fengyun's ear, and said:

"Duan Fengyun, Great Hero Duan, it seems your days have been quite merry while I was away.

You even have a son this big; it seems you must have already had a little lover before we left.

Since you have a new love and a son, then why did you come looking for the three of us? You should have just let the three of us fend for ourselves here on Linggui Island."
