Chapter 201: Though white-haired, they feel like newly met; leaning on the canopy, they feel like old friends

After Lin Yang dragged his suitcase inside, An Ni Shang smiled and greeted Zhao Feiyan and the others.

The two also replied with smiles, then quickly sat down together to chat.

Lin Yang saw this and also felt somewhat helpless, laughing and crying.

Obviously the quiet home instantly became lively.

If Lin Ying'er comes home on weekend, it would be even livelier.

As he sighed, the doorbell rang again.

He was startled, wondering if Lu Linglong had also come.

I'm here, don't press it.

He opened the door; Yuan Benchu stood outside.

Upon seeing Lin Yang, he said with a stern face.

Return my daughter quickly, or I'll call the police!

Lin Yang, hearing that, said indifferently.

Yuan Shu is inside the house; she came here willingly, even if you call the police you can't take him away.

Yuan Benchu, hearing that, said through gritted teeth.

Lin Yang, you did this on purpose, you scoundrel, you can't bear to see our Yuan family thrive!

You fear the Duàn jiā supporting our Yuan family, so you deliberately detained Yuan Shu!

You're a complete scoundrel!

Seeing Yuan Benchu flushed with anger, Lin Yang said expressionlessly.

If you could secure the Duàn jiā's support yourself, who would care?

But you use your daughter to curry favor with the Duàn jiā; are you still Yuan Shu's father?

Yuan Benchu spat and said.

You don't know shit, I'm doing this for Yuan Shu's own good!

Having said that, he was about to launch into a tirade.

If you dare say a word, I'll knock out your teeth.

I'd even dare to hit Duan Tiancheng, let alone you.

Yuan Benchu, hearing that, fell silent from fright and then left resentfully.

At night, Lin Yang was cultivating in the living room and incidentally extracting spiritual liquid when he suddenly opened his eyes.

Tonight the house is really lively; someone else has come.

He opened the door and sat on the living room sofa.

Since you've come, all come in.

As his words fell, a group of middle-aged men entered the house.

As the last person entered, he didn't forget to close the door.

Obviously, these people are habitual offenders, knowing what to do upon entering and how to do it.

Looking at the six people inside, Lin Yang said calmly.

Late at night, walking back and forth on the roof inside my house— isn't that inappropriate?

The leading tall thin man stepped forward, looked at Lin Yang, and said.

This will soon be a dead person's home; there's nothing inappropriate about it.

A dead person?

Lin Yang smiled, nodded, then looked at the six and said.

Letting you die in my house is indeed somewhat unlucky.

Us?

The tall thin man snorted coldly and said.

You think we're just ordinary thugs?

You, a mere brat, still want to kill the six of us?

Brothers, tonight everyone inside the house must be killed!

Yes!

Lin Yang looked at them, shook his head and said.

Obstinately ignorant, since you seek death yourself, I'll grant your wish!

He stomped his foot, and on the ceiling, the head of a giant python gradually appeared.

When the huge head of the giant python appeared, the six martial artists' pupils contracted.

What kind of monster is this?!

I'll swallow all six; I don't want to see a drop of blood inside the house.

The giant python, now bearing a flesh horn, let out a roar and lunged at the six.

The six martial artists drew their blades and struck the giant python.

As a result, they couldn't even cut the giant python's scales.

In contrast, the giant python opened its bloody basin mouth and swallowed one each.

As it swallowed the last person, Lin Yang said.

Leave part of his corpse; I want to search his soul!

The giant python immediately complied, holding the corpse's head in its mouth.

After performing the soul search, Lin Yang couldn't help but snort coldly.

Sure enough, it's Duan Tiancheng; this group of Jinling young masters really have the same methods.

He waved his hand and said, "Go rest."

The giant python immediately retreated to the ceiling and hid there.

After the giant python disappeared for a moment, Yuan Shu walked out of the room.

When Yuan Shu saw Lin Yang sitting on the sofa, she hesitated a moment and then walked over.

At this time, Yuan Shu had no makeup on her face and was wearing cartoon pajamas.

She had long hair that casually fell behind her.

At her age, there were still no traces of time on Yuan Shu's body.

Lin Yang looked at her, as if seeing Yuan Shu from many years ago.

The two still gazed at each other like that, but they used to be childhood sweethearts.

Now, they can only be friends.

Yuan Shu looked at Lin Yang's gaze toward her, feeling somewhat nostalgic yet estranged.

She suddenly thought of a phrase: "white-haired as new, meeting like old friends."

But all of this was her own doing.

"Lin Yang, can you forgive me for everything I did before?"

"It was my fault before; give me a chance, let us return to the past."

Lin Yang looked at her and sighed.

"We can't go back."

"Yuan Shu, some things, once they happen, can't be changed."

Upon hearing that, Yuan Shu clenched her teeth and looked at Lin Yang.

"You, are you not going to give me even one chance?"

Lin Yang stood up, looked at Yuan Shu, and shook his head.

"We are no longer people of the same world."

Yuan Shu stood frozen, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

"Yuan Shu, I don't blame you for pursuing power and status; from now on we can be friends."

Hearing those words, Yuan Shu's tears flowed uncontrollably.

"No, it's not like that!"

"I just wanted to prove it to my dad; I want him to acknowledge me!"

"Lin Yang, regarding the previous matters, it's truly my fault!"

Looking at Yuan Shu crying loudly, Lin Yang walked up to her, picked up a tissue, and wiped her tears dry.

At this moment, Yuan Shu felt a bit dazed.

She seemed to have returned to many years ago; whenever she cried, Lin Yang would wipe her tears like this.

"Yuan Shu, some things cannot be forced."

Yuan Shu sat on the sofa, gritting her teeth as she looked at Lin Yang.

"Could it be that we really have no chance?"

Lin Yang shook his head; he stood in the center of the living room.

"No chance, because we are not of the same world."

Just as Yuan Shu was about to explain, Lin Yang stomped his foot.

In an instant, the formation inside the house began to turn.

The Mountain Guarding Grand Formation turned, drawing in the surrounding spiritual energy, causing a reverse flow of spiritual energy.

Spiritual liquid kept falling, while Lin Yang hovered in midair, his clothes clinking.

At this moment, Lin Yang was like an immortal.

The plants inside the house, due to the excessive spiritual energy, began to grow wildly.

Seeing this scene, Yuan Shu wore a look of shock.

She looked at Lin Yang, her face full of disbelief.

At this moment, she seemed as if she had seen an immortal.

She understood why Lin Yang said they were not people of the same world.

Lin Yang looked down at her and spoke softly.

"Do you understand now?"

Yuan Shu stared at him, dazed.

Then, her tears fell uncontrollably.

Suddenly, she lifted her head sharply and shouted loudly.

"Lin Yang, I regret it!"

"No matter if you are an immortal or a demon, I want... I want..."

The rest of the words, Yuan Shu could not say.

She lowered her head and ran back to her room.

Lin Yang sighed; some things, once missed, are missed.
