Chapter 608


Chapter 608

After rushing for over a day, Long Chen finally found the tracks that Little Snow had left behind . This was where Little Snow had been teleported .

This was already extremely far from the Yin family’s ancestral land . Following the tracks Little Snow had left behind for over a day, he finally arrived at a small city .

Long Chen found his family in an inn . Within the entire inn, the only guests were the Long family .

That was because as soon as Little Snow had come, the other guests had all fled in terror . This place was just a small city, and the population didn’t exceed a hundred thousand . Even the Tendon Transformation realm was considered extremely powerful while Bone Forging experts were peerless . How could they have ever seen a fifth rank Magical Beast?

When Long Tianxiao had arrived on Little Snow’s back, even the manager of the inn had been prepared to run . Little Snow’s aura was just too terrifying .

He directly told Long Tianxiao that he could pick whatever room he wanted . If Long Tianxiao hadn’t comforted him, the manager would have long since fled .

Seeing Long Chen had arrived, Mrs . Long immediately hugged him, sobbing . Long Tianxiao’s eyes were also red . He had thought he would never be able to see Long Chen again .

“Mom, child was unfilial, implicating you . ” Long Chen was also choked with sobs . He had gone out to cultivate on his own, and due to that, he had implicated his parents, causing them to suffer .

“Foolish child, what nonsense . Come, meet your little sister . I came up with her name, Long Xiaoyu . Xiaoyu, quickly come greet your big brother . This is the big brother your mom and dad have told you about . ” Mrs . Long pulled the little girl over .

“Big brother…”

The little girl looked at Long Chen with her pure eyes . She was slightly afraid, as well as slightly curious . She hid behind Mrs . Long’s leg, caught between not daring to look at him and wanting to see him .

“Xiaoyu? As in the pretty daughter of a humble family? Mom, it seems you’re afraid my sister will run off too!” laughed Long Chen . From this name, it seemed his mother didn’t hope for Xiaoyu to have any accomplishments . All she wanted was for her to peacefully live by her side, being an obedient child .

But hearing this name, Long Chen remembered another figure who was only slightly bigger than Xiaoyu . It seemed she had also said her name, and it was very similar . But he had forgotten what it was exactly .

“Come, Xiaoyu, do you want a hug from your big brother?” Long Chen kneeled down and clapped his hands, smiling .

“Mommy… I’m afraid…” The little girl continued to hide behind Mrs . Long shyly .

“Foolish girl, that’s your big brother! Did you forget how he has saved us?” Mrs . Long looked at Xiaoyu tenderly, rubbing her small head .

“But… he’s different from the paintings you showed me… He’s a bit… savage,” whispered Xiaoyu into Mrs . Long’s ears .

Hearing this, the three of them immediately laughed . But Long Chen’s laughter was a bit self-mocking . He knew what paintings Xiaoyu was talking about .

That was the comic that had been extremely popular back in Phoenix Cry . At that time, Long Chen had truly just been a youth . Now, over two years had passed, and he had already grown up .

Not only had his face become more steadfast, but due to the struggles on the cultivation path, he had also slaughtered countless people . That murderous aura in his bones was hard to conceal .

Although Long Chen had already withdrawn that aura, Xiaoyu was a child and was exceptionally sensitive to that kind of aura . She naturally felt he was scary .

Seeing that Xiaoyu refused to get closer, Long Chen simply smiled and told Mrs . Long to do her best to coax her . Long Chen went into another room and gave Long Tianxiao a medicinal pill to regrow his limbs . In just an incense stick’s worth of time, he was fully healed

“Chen-er, you’ve had it hard in the outside world . ” Long Tianxiao patted Long Chen on the shoulder, sighing .

Although Long Chen was now the same height as Long Tianxiao, in Long Tianxiao’s eyes, Long Chen would forever be that small child . Seeing Long Chen’s steadfast face, Long Tianxiao felt a sour feeling . The only one who knew how much Long Chen had suffered was himself .

Long Chen forced back his tears, smiling . “Dad, your child doesn’t have it hard . The outside world is very brilliant . I have many great beauties and many hot-blooded brothers…”

Long Chen told his father about his experiences . However, he only mentioned the good parts . The sadness, the powerlessness he felt, those portions he omitted .

“Chen-er, your decision today makes me both happy and troubled . I’m happy that even after all those trials and hardships, you still managed to retain your original heart . But I’m also troubled, because even after experiencing that much slaughter, you still haven’t been able to make your heart vicious and ruthless . I’m afraid that the same thing will happen again in front of you, and at that time, perhaps you really will fall,” sighed Long Tianxiao .

Long Chen cared too deeply about the people close to him . That was something gratifying, but such a person would suffer far too much in the outside world .

“Dad, don’t worry . I definitely won’t fall into this kind of trap again,” promised Long Chen .

“Your mother and I are not going back to Phoenix Cry . We’ll find a small village for ourselves to live in peacefully . These years, all I’ve done is battle and fight . But that never managed to bring anything back for us . This time, it seems I’ve gained a flash of insight . I want to try being an ordinary person . Hunting, farming, resting when the sun’s down, working when the sun’s up, living carefree and unrestrained . ” Long Tianxiao smiled .

“Dad…”

“Chen-er, don’t feel bad . You should feel excited for your dad . I really did gain a flash of insight . Living in itself is also a kind of cultivation .

“Some people care so much about the result, that they’ve forgotten that sometimes the journey of cultivation is even more important than the result .

“When I was young, I only wanted to get stronger . I cared too much about the result . Now I realize, the result is unknown, but the journey is within my control .

“I won’t care about the result for now . What I want to do is allow my journey to become even more brilliant . When you were young, I didn’t accompany you while you grew up . That is my greatest regret .

“Now the heavens have given me another chance, sending Xiaoyu to my side . I’ll properly cherish this chance . I’ll stay by her side as she grows up .

“Chen-er, there’s a certain phrase that’s well said: the horse dislikes the narrow path, and the Great Peng hates the heavens for being too low . Your world will be even wider, even higher .

“Don’t let your Dao-heart be disturbed because of us . Each person has their own goals . You should be happy for us, because we’ve finally found our own goal,” said Long Tianxiao . He patted Long Chen on the shoulder .

Long Chen looked at his father . His father’s eyes were completely calm without the slightest reluctance .

“Yes, dad . ”

“Alright, go play with your sister now . You’re her idol, and she always talks about you .

“But… she doesn’t like me…”

“Hahaha…”

Their family peacefully passed three days together . During these three days, Long Chen accompanied his sister with Little Snow .

Long Xiaoyu liked Little Snow especially and wasn’t the slightest bit afraid of him . In fact, she would even sleep on his back when she was tired .

Long Chen leaned against Little Snow, rubbing his head . He was filled with peace . In truth, happiness was very simple . Why did people have to fight to the point of you die or I die?

In this calm town, Long Chen felt a peace he had never felt before . It was like he had left the endless struggles of the world .

But he knew this peace was just temporary . He still had to return into a bloody current and continue his life .

That was because if he didn’t struggle, he wouldn’t be able to learn about his origins . He might be able to avoid this struggle, but that would be too cruel to his biological parents .

The violet jade pendant appeared in his hand again . Rubbing the words on it, he couldn’t help but feel pain inside . He didn’t know when he would finally be able to see his biological parents . Were they still alive?

“Big brother, are you going to leave us?”

At some unknown point, Xiaoyu had woken up . She was staring at Long Chen with her large eyes .

“I…”

“I know big brother is a big hero who will save the world by fighting off those evil demons! Once you defeat those demons, you’ll definitely come back to see me,” said Xiaoyu excitedly .

“What… who told you this?” asked Long Chen .

“Mom said it, and daddy also said this . That’s right, big brother, why do you call daddy father or dad?”

Xiaoyu changed topics so quickly that Long Chen was almost unable to keep up . “When I was young, I also called him daddy . But later… I called him father, because your brother grew up, and calling him that was no longer appropriate . ”

Long Chen remembered when he was as small as Xiaoyu . He had also followed his father around all day, calling him daddy over and over again . But later, his father had left, and that appellation became foreign .

“Then I won’t grow up . I want to forever call him daddy, and daddy will also always love me . Big brother, kiss!” Xiaoyu suddenly wrapped her arms around Long Chen’s neck and gave him a kiss on the cheek .

Now, Xiaoyu was much closer to Long Chen, and she no longer felt her previous shyness or fright . Instead, she had now become closest to Long Chen, even forgetting about her father and mother .

“Big brother, let me tell you a secret . I actually dislike kissing daddy . ”

“Oh? Why?”

“Because daddy’s beard is too prickly . Even if he shaves, it grows back so fast, and it’s so painful!” whispered Xiaoyu .

“Cough, Xiaoyu, talking about people behind their backs is bad . ” At some unknown point, Long Tianxiao had appeared behind the two of them, just in time to hear her final words .

“Daddy! Hug!”

Xiaoyu extended her arms . Long Tianxiao’s scolding expression immediately became something caught between laughter and tears, and he lifted her into the air . This move of hers was definitely one hundred percent effective .

“Alright, let’s go eat . ”

Mrs . Long’s voice rang out from the room . Their family sat around a square table . Although they were just eating ordinary vegetables and tofu, this ordinary meal was extremely joyful .

Long Chen stayed here for a full week . But on the eighth day, he finally left .

He left in the middle of the night, afraid to endure any tearful goodbyes . Long Tianxiao had also said that once Long Chen left, they would also leave and find a quiet, isolated place to live ordinary lives .

Finding a comparatively large city, he paid a fee and stepped onto a transportation formation going directly toward the Xuantian Supermonastery .

Brothers, I, Long Chen, am coming back .
