Chapter 240: Returning to the Central Plains
After dawn, Duan Fengyun was busy running around preparing breakfast for everyone.
Before leaving, Duan Fengyun had brought along many vegetables from the garden where Youruo and the others lived, specifically for the morning and evening meals.
With limited ingredients, Duan Fengyun boiled a whole large pot of white porridge and cooked a large pot of eggs.
After the three little ones—Xiao Wuyou, Xiao Ruoruo, and Bu Tian—woke up, the breakfast he had meticulously prepared was placed before them.
Xiao Wuyou exclaimed:
"Having a daddy is just great.
The food Daddy makes is much tastier than what Mommy and the others make."
Youruo feigned anger and said:
"Since you don't like the food Mommy makes, from today on, whenever you want to eat, go find your daddy!"
Duan Fengyun stroked Xiao Wuyou's head and said:
"Eat quickly; if you say that, your mommy will get angry.
If you like the food Daddy makes, just tell me, and as long as Daddy has time, I will definitely make it for you."
"Thank you, Daddy, Daddy is the best."
Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Ruoruo, ignoring the stains on their mouths, kept burrowing into Duan Fengyun's arms.
Duan Fengyun, who hadn't gotten a single drop of oil on himself while cooking, ended up covered in it by the two little ones.
After everyone finished breakfast, they continued on their journey.
After drifting on the boat for several more hours, they finally saw Zhongyuan.
Duan Fengyun and Bu Jingyun, who were responsible for rowing, put in even more effort.
"Ah!"
With a loud roar, Duan Fengyun and Bu Jingyun unleashed the immense power of their respective Kirin Arms, rowing the boat vigorously toward the shore.
After reaching the shore, Duan Fengyun carried Xiao Wuyou and Xiao Ruoruo onto land, and Youruo and the others followed closely behind.
The four women, including Youruo, looked at the Central Plains and took a deep breath; Youruo sighed:
"As expected, the air in the Central Plains suits us better.
Duan Fengyun, where are we going next?"
Duan Fengyun laughed:
"Since we're back in the Central Plains, we're obviously going home."
Duan Fengyun walked in front of the group carrying the two little ones, and while he was swaggering down the road, he was spotted by someone observant.
This observant person saw Duan Fengyun carrying the two little ones, with Youruo and the other women following behind, and knew it must be Duan Fengyun's wife and children returning.
This person hurriedly went back to report to his superior, and upon learning the situation, the leader immediately led a large group of men to intercept Duan Fengyun and the others on their path.
The leader led the large group of men to kneel on the ground with a thud and shouted:
"Disciples of the Dragon Gate pay respects to the Sect Leader and the three Hall Masters.
Welcome back, Sect Leader's wife, Hall Master's wives, young master, and young miss."
The observant person who had just discovered Duan Fengyun was a scout from a small Dragon Gate team stationed outside; upon discovering the Sect Leader's whereabouts, he had immediately run to tell the leader.
This leader happened to be from the former World Society, so upon seeing Youruo, he recognized her immediately.
Because Duan Fengyun and Nie Feng were very kind to them in their daily lives, these disciples were genuinely happy to see Duan Fengyun and Bu Jingyun bring back their wives and children.
The grand and imposing sight of the crowd gave the three little ones, including Xiao Wuyou, quite a fright.
Xiao Ruoruo hid in Duan Fengyun's arms, quietly peeking at this group of Dragon Gate disciples.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wuyou looked at this group of people with curiosity, muttering to himself:
"If my daddy is the Sect Leader, then doesn't that make me the Young Sect Leader?
Since these people are all my daddy's subordinates, I can order them to play with me!"
Duan Fengyun waved his hand and said:
"Alright, alright, get up quickly.
We have just brought back the young master and young miss, and after the long and tiring journey, you go prepare some food for us first.
Then, send someone back to tell the sect that we have brought back the young master and the others, and have them make the Dragon Gate look a bit more festive."
Upon hearing this, the small team leader immediately arranged for someone nearby to go back and notify Wen Chou Chou.
He then led Duan Fengyun and the others to the most famous restaurant on Wuhuang Mountain.
Being tactful, he knew this was not an occasion for him to participate, so after leading Duan Fengyun and the others to sit in a private room, he quietly took his leave.
Duan Fengyun tossed the menu to Xiao Wuyou and said:
"Son, see what you want to eat?
Order whatever you want."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wuyou waved his hand and called Xiao Ruoruo and Bu Tian over.
"Come, Little Sister Ruoruo, Bu Tian, look at what you want to eat.
Don't be polite with my daddy, just order."
"I want this, this, this, and this."
The three little ones ordered a whole table full of dishes, but Duan Fengyun didn't feel the slightest bit of heartache.
For so many years, he knew he had owed his son and daughter too much, and he wanted to make up for it properly.
The three little ones and the four women, including Youruo, hadn't tasted the flavors of home for a long time, and in the end, there wasn't much left of the full table of food.
After finishing the meal, Duan Fengyun was not in a hurry to return.
He took all the money he had on him and gave it to Youruo, saying:
"I promised you on Linggui Island that once you returned, I would let you buy, buy, buy."
"Take this money and call Chuchu, Ding Ning, and little Wuyou to go to the market together and buy some clothes.
The wife, young master, and young miss of the dignified Dragon Gate Sect Leader cannot return home looking too shabby, otherwise, it will be my, Duan Fengyun's, face that gets lost."
After receiving the activity funds from Duan Fengyun, Youruo waved her hand and immediately took little Wuyou and the others to the market.
Little Wuyou and the others also called for Long Er, and Long Er followed along, full of joy.
Long Er followed along full of joy, mistakenly thinking there would be some good thing, but the reality gave him a heavy blow to the head.
Young and strong, he directly became a little lackey for the four of them, his entire body covered in the belongings of the four of them and the three little ones, including little Wuyou.
Fortunately, a Dragon Gate disciple saw Long Er's awkward situation and came out to help Long Er shoulder more than half of it; otherwise, the dignified third-generation Jiansheng, Long Er, might have lost his life at the market.
People rely on clothes and horses rely on saddles; after changing into brocade garments, little Wuyou and little Ruoruo, who inherited the perfect genes of Duan Fengyun and Youruo, had their entire temperament changed quite a bit.
Dressed in brocade, little Wuyou and little Ruoruo looked just like a little prince and a little princess.
Youruo spent Duan Fengyun's money without feeling any heartache at all; besides buying several sets of clothes for herself and the two little ones, she also bought several sets for Di Er Meng and the others.
According to Ding Ning, it was that since their men have money and spend it together anyway, they might as well spend their money together.
Seeing Long Er and the Dragon Gate disciple almost crushed by a pile of things, Duan Fengyun felt a wave of emotion in his heart:
"Sure enough, accompanying women to the street is a life-threatening job."
Even though Duan Fengyun now possessed an immortal body, he still felt deeply resistant to accompanying Youruo to the street. Upon seeing the money Youruo returned, Duan Fengyun sighed once more:
"Women spending money is truly like flowing water."
Of course, Duan Fengyun dared not say these two points out loud.
However, seeing the glowing Youruo and the little Wuyou and little Ruoruo, who were as cute as two porcelain dolls, Duan Fengyun cast the spent money to the back of his mind.
The great Sect Leader Duan now had only one thought in his mind:
"Earning money is just to support the family; as long as the wife and children are living well, money is of no importance."
Duan Fengyun directly took action and booked the guest rooms of this restaurant to avoid disturbances from other uninvited guests.
At night, Long Er took Wuyou and Bu Tian to his own room, while little Ruoruo sensibly found a room for herself.
They all knew that their mother and father had not seen each other for so long and must have many things to say; they had to leave an opportunity for their father and mother to be alone together.
Youruo had originally disagreed, but under Duan Fengyun's Spirit Sense, one might ask who could take little Ruoruo and the others away from the room next to his.
Duan Fengyun lay on the bed, while Youruo rested her head on Duan Fengyun's chest, drawing circles on Duan Fengyun's body with her hand as she lay there.
Finally unable to hold back, Duan Fengyun pulled the curtains shut and began his procreation exercise.
This battle lasted until the early hours of the morning; even with his immortal body, Duan Fengyun eventually threw away his helmet and armor, and both of them perished together.
After venting the fire that had been suppressed for several years, Duan Fengyun felt that his current state was even more refreshing than the day he consumed the Dragon Essence.
The next morning, none of the eight adults had gotten up, so Long Er, looking like a little adult, took little Wuyou and the others downstairs for breakfast.
After finishing breakfast, Long Er ignored the fawning of the three little ones and took them back to their room.
Long Er knew that if he took little Ruoruo and the others out without Duan Fengyun's consent, he could not bear the responsibility if something happened.
When the sun was high in the sky and all four little ones were bored to death playing in the room, Duan Fengyun and the others finally woke up from their beautiful dreams.
Youruo put on her clothes and walked to the window; seeing the sun hanging high, she didn't need to guess to know what time it was.
Youruo pouted and said:
"It's all your fault; it's already noon, and I don't know if little Ruoruo and the others have eaten."
Duan Fengyun pulled Youruo over and said:
"Don't worry, with Long Er there, they won't go hungry.
Come to think of it, I'm hungry again; let's continue."
As he spoke, Duan Fengyun reached his wicked hand into the sensitive area in front of Youruo again.
Youruo pushed Duan Fengyun away and said:
"I'm in no mood to play with you; I'm going to go see my two little treasures."
Duan Fengyun touched his nose and sighed:
"Sure enough, once you have a son and daughter, you forget your husband."
The two put on their clothes, washed up, and opened the door to see Bu Jingyun and the others who had also just come out of their rooms.
After a round of awkward smiles, the group found little Wuyou and the others.
At this moment, the four little ones had all started their afternoon nap after finishing lunch.
The eight people walked downstairs, and Duan Fengyun, without even looking at the menu, ordered a table full of dishes with a flourish.
After a night of battle, the group was already ravenous, and with so many years of friendship, they didn't stand on ceremony and started eating on their own.
After solving the problem of hunger, little Wuyou and the others also got up, so they began to head back to Dragon Gate.
