Chapter 280: Yin Tianqi Returns Home

~11 min read 2,105 words

Long Po looked at the radiant Shenlong Sword with anticipation, but after the anticipation came disappointment.

Under the interference of the Spirit Mirror, the Shenlong Sword gained nothing and fell directly to the ground.

Long Po looked at this scene and said in disbelief:

"How could it be like this!

Ancestor Long Teng, do you no longer protect your descendants?

My Bo, my little master, where on earth are you?

If anything happens to you, how can I face the Mistress and Master in the afterlife?"

As Long Po spoke, she fainted, but fortunately, Han Batian, who was beside her, was quick-witted and caught her.

Dou Dou continued to stand on the cliff of Hell Valley, looking at the pitch-black valley below, murmuring to herself:

"Tong Dage, we agreed that you would come to marry me in five years.

If you don't come to marry me in five years, then I will jump down from this Hell Valley.

If I cannot be yours in life, I will become your ghost in death!"

Tong Zhan also murmured to himself:

"Dage, Tong Xin, I believe you will definitely be fine.

I will wait for you to return in Shuiyue Dongtian.

Ancestors of the Tong clan, please, you must bless Dage and Tong Xin to return safely!"

Immediately, Tong Zhan pulled Yin Tianxue and shouted to Dou Dou:

"Dou Dou, let's go home first. I believe Dage and Tong Xin will definitely be fine.

It is already late at night; let's go to Shuiyue Dongtian to rest first."

Dou Dou nodded and, together with Han Batian, helped Long Po back to Shuiyue Dongtian.

That night, except for the unconscious Long Po, no one else slept well.

Han Batian spent the whole night taking care of the unconscious Long Po, while Dou Dou, Tianxue, and Tong Zhan were all worried about the safety of Tong Bo and Tong Xin.

With the whereabouts of Tong Bo and Tong Xin unknown, how could they possibly sleep?

They were all hoping that at daybreak, Tong Bo would return like a War God, bringing Tong Xin and the Spirit Mirror with him.

As dawn approached, they finally could not resist their sleepiness.

When they finally woke up when the sun was high, their first reaction was to run outside to see if Tong Bo and Tong Xin had returned.

But the rooms of Tong Bo and Tong Xin were still empty, and Dou Dou said disappointedly:

"It's been a whole night, and Tong Dage and the others still haven't returned. They must have encountered danger."

Tianxue stepped forward and held Dou Dou's shoulders; she knew that Dou Dou must be very sad at this moment.

At this time, Long Po walked out. After Han Batian's careful care throughout the night and a dose of medicine given by Yinxiu in the morning, Long Po was already fine.

Long Po said to them:

"I believe Tong Bo and the others are still alive. They must only be temporarily missing, and I believe they will return soon."

They nodded, and Tianxue said:

"Since that is the case, I will go back and tell my father. They must have been searching all night.

I will go back and let them rest for a while before continuing to look for them!

Tong Zhan, I'm leaving now.

If there is any news about Tong Bo and the others, please remember to tell me."

Tong Zhan nodded and said:

"Alright, Tianxue, I will see you off!"

Long Po also spoke up at this time:

"Then we will also go back first, Tong Zhan.

Just like what Tianxue said, if you have any news about Tong Bo, you must tell me immediately."

After saying this, Dou Dou and Han Batian helped Long Po leave.

After Tong Zhan reluctantly saw Yin Tianxue off to the boundary of Shuiyue Dongtian, Tong Zhan said:

"Take care, Tianxue!"

Yin Tianxue nodded and replied: "Tong Zhan, you take care too, and remember to think of me often!"

After Yin Tianxue said this playfully, she rode away on her horse.

Hearing these words from Tianxue, a smile appeared on Tong Zhan's face, and he murmured:

"I will always think of you, Tianxue!"

Afterward, Tong Zhan returned to his cold, unapproachable demeanor and went back into Shuiyue Dongtian. With the disappearance of Tong Bo, Tong Xin, and the Spirit Mirror, he, as the Clan Leader, had to find out the reason behind it.

At this moment, inside the town, Duan Fengyun was lying on the Boss's chair at the Ririsheng Guild, contentedly watching his accountant, Wu Tong, who was busy working away.

Although Wu Tong was busy, he was busy and happy, because Duan Fengyun had told him that he would give him a bonus based on the daily profits.

In half a year, Wu Tong had earned enough money to marry a wife, which gave him even more motivation to work.

Looking at such a lucrative job, his former dream of fame had long been cast to the back of his mind; he now only wanted to earn money.

Watching Wu Tong, who was like a printing machine, Duan Fengyun teased:

"Wu Tong, keep up the good work.

At this rate, you will soon earn enough money to buy a house.

Young man, keep it up, I believe in you!"

Wu Tong replied with a fawning expression:

"Boss, don't you worry, in order to settle down and start a family, I will definitely work hard."

"As long as this little one does not die, this little one will surely exert himself to the utmost for the Boss."

Duan Fengyun nodded with satisfaction, then his gaze inadvertently swept past Yin Tianxue, who was galloping past the front of the shop on horseback.

Duan Fengyun thought to himself:

"Yin Tianxue, have you all been searching in vain for the whole night?

This young master knows the whereabouts of Tong Bo and the others, but unfortunately, this young master will not tell you.

You all should wait another five years; after five years, Tong Bo and the others will naturally come out."

After Yin Tianxue galloped back to Yujian Villa, looking at the exhausted state of everyone in the villa, Yin Tianxue knew they must have been busy all night.

To express her gratitude, Yin Tianxue walked to the kitchen and said:

"Cook more rice and prepare more dishes later; let everyone in the residence stay for dinner tonight.

As for wine, put a jar on every table for them; they worked hard all night last night, let them eat and drink to relax a bit."

When the people in the kitchen arrived this morning, they had already learned that Tong Bo had gone missing last night and that the entire staff of the residence had gone out to search for the whole night.

Looking at the so sensible and righteous Yin Tianxue, the people in the kitchen nodded one after another and said:

"Very well, Miss.

Miss is truly a living Bodhisattva."

After Yin Tianxue smiled, she went to the main hall to find Yin Hao.

At this moment, Yin Hao was also sitting on a chair with a weary face; he had also been busy until almost dawn last night before lying down to rest for a while.

Seeing that Yin Tianxue had arrived, Yin Hao immediately stood up from his chair and asked:

"Tianxue, how is it?

Is there any news about Tong Bo and the others?

I led the Iron Guards and the others to search all night last night and did not find a single clue; I really do not know where Tong Bo and the others have gone."

Yin Tianxue shook her head and said:

"Long Po and I searched all night, but we also have no news of Tong Bo and the others.

Later, Tong Zhan told us to come back, saying he would notify us the moment he has news.

By the way, Father, everyone in the residence was busy all night last night, so I asked the kitchen to prepare some wine and food for them to reward them tonight.

I wonder what you think of this, Father?"

Yin Hao nodded and said:

"As expected, you are still the one who is meticulous; Father had forgotten about this. This is as it should be; they have been running about all night, we should reward them.

I will go out and tell them to let them all stay for dinner tonight!"

Yin Hao walked into the courtyard and shouted:

"Everyone, gather here!"

After Yin Hao gave the order, all the Iron Guards, servants, maids, and others arrived in the courtyard.

Through the state of the crowd, Yin Hao could see their exhaustion; indeed, anyone would be tired after a night of running about.

Seeing that everyone was present, Yin Hao began:

"Thank you all for helping to search for Tong Bo and the others last night. To reward everyone, Tianxue has asked the kitchen to prepare wine and food for you.

Do not go home for dinner tonight; everyone will eat in the villa, and tonight everyone must drink to their heart's content!"

After Yin Hao finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers from the crowd:

"The Villa Master is wise, many thanks to the Miss!"

They had originally thought that Yin Hao calling them to gather in the courtyard was to have them continue searching for Tong Bo and the others.

Although they were already very exhausted, they still would have had to go search if the master of the house spoke; after all, they were living under someone else's roof.

They did not expect that Yin Hao calling them to gather was to let them drink and eat in the villa tonight, which instantly gave the exhausted crowd spirit and gave them a greater sense of belonging to Yujian Villa.

Yin Hao and Yin Tianxue smiled slightly as they watched the cheering crowd.

That night, there were a full eight tables of banquets set up in Yujian Villa, and Yin Hao, who had not drunk with the villa's servants for a long time, also let go this time and drank with everyone.

Meanwhile, Tianxue held her wine cup, occasionally raising it to toast Tie Feng and the others.

Just as everyone was drinking and chatting, the main gate was pushed open.

"Big Brother!"

"Tianqi!"

Yin Tianxue and Yin Hao exclaimed after seeing the person who arrived.

Yin Tianqi, with disheveled clothes, a full beard, and a face full of vicissitudes, walked in from outside the gate.

At this moment, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the middle-aged-looking Yin Tianqi.

Yin Tianqi slowly walked in front of Yin Hao and Yin Tianxue and smiled slightly:

"Father, Tianxue, I am back!"

After saying this, Yin Tianqi collapsed directly into Yin Hao's arms.

"Tianqi!"

"Big Brother!"

"Young Villa Master!"

Yin Tianqi's sudden appearance caused the previously joyous banquet to instantly become heavy.

All the servants tactfully cleaned up the remnants of the meal.

Yin Tianqi lay on the bed, while the doctor at his side diagnosed his pulse and said:

"Villa Master Yin, the Young Villa Master has no major problems.

The Young Villa Master is just physically weak, and coupled with long-term heavy labor and indulgence in drinking, it has led to his current state."

"I will prescribe some medicine for the Young Villa Master to replenish his blood and Qi later; if he takes it a few more times, he will recover."

Looking at Yin Tianqi, whose face was devoid of any color, Yin Hao said with a pained heart:

"Tianqi, what on earth have you been doing these past six months?

How did you end up like this? You make your father's heart ache so much."

How could Yin Hao accept that the lively and cheerful Yin Tianqi from half a year ago had turned into this current state?

Yin Tianxue spoke up:

"Father, the doctor already said that Big Brother has no major issues; once he drinks some medicine, he should be fine.

No matter what happened to Big Brother while he was away, the best outcome is that he has returned.

The fact that he could return shows that he has already thought things through, and I believe Big Brother will recover very soon and take over your burdens."

Yin Hao nodded; he naturally understood what Yin Tianxue was saying.

But seeing Yin Tianqi in this state, he still could not bear it.
