Chapter 441: Returning to the North Sea
Looking at the intoxicated Ning Ke, Duan Fengyun was very understanding.
They were celebrating the victory over the Demon Realm and the slaying of the Demon Lord.
But as for Ning Ke, she could only watch them celebrate, while she felt extremely miserable inside.
Duan Fengyun pointed at Ning Ke and said to Yuwen Tuo:
"Brother Yuwen, Ning Ke shouldn't be able to keep drinking in this state.
You should hurry and take her to get some rest."
Dan Yuwu, who had originally intended to let Yuwen Tuo stay here to have a few more drinks with Duan Fengyun and the others, and had volunteered to take Ning Ke to rest, was stopped by Duan Fengyun.
"Madam, Ning Ke is likely unhappy right now; it is better to let Brother Yuwen go and keep her company.
It's not like today is the only day to drink with Brother Yuwen; just let him go and accompany the person he most needs to accompany."
Upon hearing Duan Fengyun's words, Dan Yuwu nodded and watched as Yuwen Tuo helped Ning Ke away.
Seeing Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke leave, Duan Fengyun teased:
"Madam, haven't you always wanted to hold a grandchild?
Isn't this me thinking of a way for you?
You insisted on stepping out to ruin my plan just now; you really made it difficult for me."
Only then did Dan Yuwu suddenly realize, after hearing Duan Fengyun's words, that this was the intention Duan Fengyun had.
Guyue, watching the backs of Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke as they left, wore a heavy expression; the Queen of the Diren Tribe asked in confusion upon seeing the heavy-faced Guyue:
"Guyue, the young couple is off to be lovey-dovey, why are you here looking so glum?"
Guyue shook his head after hearing this; if he didn't clarify, he reckoned the Queen of the Diren Tribe would get jealous for no reason again.
【To be honest, I've been using Wild Fruit Reading to catch up on updates lately; it has many sources, and the text-to-speech voices are great, available on both Android and Apple.】
Guyue voiced his worries.
"Yuwen Tuo is Human, and Ning Ke is a demon; since ancient times, the union of human and demon has been forbidden.
If they were to have offspring, I don't even know how that child would be treated in the future."
Hearing Guyue's concern, Dan Yuwu, who had been smiling, suddenly turned pale; she hadn't even known about this issue.
Duan Fengyun, however, remained calm; regarding this worry of Guyue's, Duan Fengyun had long since had his own thoughts.
Duan Fengyun spoke up:
"Although the union of human and demon has been forbidden since ancient times.
Rules have always been meant to be broken; if rules aren't broken, how can there be innovation?
Furthermore, regarding the matter of Brother Yuwen and Ning Ke's offspring, this child possesses the Bloodline of both the Human Race and the Demon Race; perhaps they might even become the key to peaceful coexistence between the Human Race and the Demon Race in the future.
So, Immortal, you don't need to worry too much about the matter of Brother Yuwen and Ning Ke.
I believe that as long as they truly love each other, they will certainly be able to break through the shackles of the world and achieve their happiness."
Xiaoxue also agreed from the side:
"Brother Duan is right; as long as Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke truly love each other, I don't think anything can stop them."
The Queen of the Diren Tribe also stood up to support them:
"Indeed, I also support Duan Fengyun's point of view.
Rules are meant to be broken; I believe Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke will find their happiness."
Seeing so many people stand up to express their support for the relationship between Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke, Guyue had no choice but to remain silent.
In truth, he also hoped, as Duan Fengyun said, that Yuwen Tuo and Ning Ke could break through the shackles of the world and achieve their happiness.
As for their offspring, he also hoped this little one could bring a new light to the Human Race and the Demon Race.
At this moment, Yuwen Tuo had already helped Ning Ke into the room; Yuwen Tuo helped Ning Ke onto the bed to let her rest well.
When Yuwen Tuo turned to leave, his hand was grabbed by Ning Ke.
Ning Ke said:
"Tuo, don't go; can you stay and keep me company!"
Looking at Ning Ke's pleading eyes, Yuwen Tuo sat down in front of Ning Ke's bed.
The two locked eyes, and in each other's eyes, there was only the other person.
After a moment of gazing, the two finally took the first step, both of them hungrily devouring the other.
And after a bout of passion, the two finally reached the final step.
Looking at his beloved, as pure as jade, Yuwen Tuo could no longer suppress the fire in his heart and lunged forward.
With a pained moan, the two were finally joined together.
Seeing Yuwen Tuo, who hadn't returned for a long time, everyone wore a mischievous smile.
This Yuwen Tuo had finally lived up to everyone's expectations.
And Duan Fengyun took this opportunity to go attend to a matter that would keep him from sleeping or eating in peace if left undone.
Seeing Duan Fengyun walking out, Guyue asked:
"Duan Fengyun, where are you going?"
Duan Fengyun took out a small box from his bosom and said:
"I am going to send the third brother home."
The small box Duan Fengyun had just taken out contained the remains left behind by Juhai; Duan Fengyun wanted to scatter these remains into the North Sea; he wanted to send Juhai home.
Guyue naturally knew what was in the box Duan Fengyun had brought out, and he said:
"Alright, then take care; we will wait for you to return to continue drinking."
Duan Fengyun laughed:
"Don't worry, I won't leave until I've finished all your private collection."
After finishing speaking, Duan Fengyun directly transformed into a streak of red flame and flew away.
A streak of firelight tore through the horizon and arrived at the North Sea at an extremely fast speed.
Duan Fengyun stood by the North Sea, looking at this place where he and Juhai first met.
Duan Fengyun took out the box from his bosom and said:
"Third Brother, Big Brother is sending you home!"
Duan Fengyun opened the box, and after a breeze blew past, the inside of the box was already empty.
Duan Fengyun knew that Juhai definitely wanted to return to the North Sea; this was the home it had stayed in for thousands of years, and here was the Diren Tribe it had always protected.
Duan Fengyun took a jar of wine from the Void and poured it directly onto the ground.
"Third Brother, I once promised you that I would drink heartily with you, but now there is no chance.
Third Brother, Big Brother toasts you with this jar of wine; if it weren't for you, Big Brother would have long since been reduced to ashes, and the Human Realm would have also become the territory of the Demon Race.
You are the true hero of the Human Realm; all this glory should belong to you."
After Duan Fengyun finished pouring the entire jar of wine in his hand, he sat on the ground with a thud and said:
"Third Brother, it has been less than half a year since we met, right?
We haven't really talked much in this half year, so today I will have a good chat with you.
You say, you were a perfectly fine prehistoric giant beast, why didn't you stay as the guardian beast of the North Sea, but instead ran off to fight the Demon Race with me?
And we were only brothers for half a year, why did you have to step forward and block that blade for me?
If it were you, I definitely wouldn't have blocked it for you.
Third Brother, you are truly a fool.
All of this is my fault as your big brother; if only I had taken out the Xuanyuan Sword sooner."
Thinking of his own mistake, Duan Fengyun could not help but have his eyes turn red. Before his eyes, it was as if the silly and cute little seal that used to show off and act tough in front of him appeared again.
Just then, a voice that broke this sorrowful atmosphere rang out.
"I heard there is a Diren Tribe here, right?
And I heard the Diren Tribe Queen is a great beauty; if one could get a taste of her, that would be something even Immortals would envy."
"Big Brother, legend has it that the North Sea has the prehistoric giant beast Juhai; if it discovers us, wouldn't we all be done for here?"
"Ouch, Fourth Brother, now that our divine arts have reached perfection, who in the world could be a match for our seven brothers?
If that Juhai dares to come, I will kill it and let the brothers eat meat.
Rest assured, I, your big brother, will not hog good things to myself; after I am done enjoying the Diren Tribe Queen, I will give her to you all, let us seven brothers all see what the Queen tastes like."
Upon hearing the voices of these seven people, Duan Fengyun leaped up from the ground and arrived in front of them.
These seven people were short, ugly, and looked truly bizarre.
The short, ugly man leading the seven spoke up:
"Stinky brat, you don't greet us Seven Immortals of Huashan when you see us, are you looking for death?"
Duan Fengyun looked at these seven dwarves and mocked:
"Seven Immortals of Huashan? I have never heard of any Seven Immortals of Huashan.
Looking at your appearance, you should be the Seven Dwarves of Huashan or the Seven Uglies of Huashan."
The seven of them usually hated hearing others call them ugly or short; they never expected that this man before them would actually dare to bring this up, which made them unable to endure it.
The leading man shouted angrily:
"Stinky brat, you actually dare to stir up trouble on the head of Tai Sui; today we will make you regret coming into this world.
Brothers, let's go, teach this stinky brat a lesson."
The seven of them rushed toward Duan Fengyun one after another. At this moment, Duan Fengyun was still in self-reproach, and seeing this group of people who didn't know life from death daring to provoke him, Duan Fengyun was instantly enraged.
In just a single encounter, except for the leading man, the other six were all smashed to pieces by Duan Fengyun using his Divine Fire Clone.
Seeing this scene, the leading man knew he had caused a great disaster and immediately knelt on the ground to beg for mercy:
"This great Immortal, it was us who were blind and offended an Immortal; I hope you, great Immortal, will be magnanimous and spare this lowly one's life.
This lowly one is willing to be a beast of burden for you, great Immortal; from now on, if you tell me to go east, I will never go west."
Duan Fengyun looked at the man's ugly face, and a feeling of disgust welled up in his heart.
Duan Fengyun shook his head and said:
"I only had one little brother, and he is already dead; I don't need a little brother anymore.
But I am worried he will be lonely down below, so I have decided to send you down to keep him company."
Hearing Duan Fengyun's words, the man got up and turned to run.
But would Duan Fengyun give him the chance?
Just as the man turned, he was slapped to the ground by Duan Fengyun, and the man was instantly ignited.
Duan Fengyun looked at the sky and shouted:
"Third Brother, did you see that?
Big Brother has sent you some little brothers; don't spoil them, hit them when they need hitting, scold them when they need scolding!
If you feel bored, or if this group doesn't listen, just send Big Brother a dream, and Big Brother will send a few more people down for you.
Third Brother, Big Brother has to go; if you feel bored here in the future, remember to send a dream to find Big Brother."
Duan Fengyun looked at the boundless North Sea, where the most regretful lesson was buried; after a moment of mourning, Duan Fengyun transformed into a streak of firelight once again.
