Chapter 80 I'll Remember This Revenge

"Young Master! I'm back!"

The most pleasant sound in the world rang in Huo Gannian's ears.

It's only been three months, how come it feels like ten years...

The next moment, the assassin who almost took his life was stabbed in the throat with a sword, and blood splattered all over his face.

Yun Chen only saw the red blood flowing down his face, and did not see any other crystal-clear objects hidden in the blood, sliding down the corners of his phoenix eyes.

Without saying anything more, Yun Chen threw down a coarse cloth handkerchief and said, "Young Master, wipe your face first," and then immediately quickly engaged in the fight.

Ye Yan and the others were all stunned, holding back their tears and shouting "Yun Chen!"

Yun Chen grinned, showing his white teeth in a silly smile in response, then his eyes turned cold and he knocked down an assassin with a sword.

Everyone's spirits were greatly lifted, and they suddenly felt that they had endless energy, and began to fight even harder.

Xiaoliu roared towards the sky, excitedly lifted up an assassin and threw him hard to the ground.

In an instant, the guards of the Huo Gang were as swift as tigers and unstoppable. They quickly killed the assassins in pieces and almost no one survived.

Yun Chen put his sword to the throat of the last assassin, "Which family is seeking revenge? Tell me your name!"

The assassin was covered in wounds, and even kneeling on the ground was very strenuous, but he still sneered contemptuously and refused to admit defeat, saying:

"The Huo family dog ​​is really crazy!"

After saying that, the assassin leaned over and hit Yun Chen's sword, committing suicide.

Yun Chen swung his sword, splashing blood, and frowned:

"I remember two years ago in the ancestral hall, the young master said that we were allowed to run wild. Could these assassins be from the Yu family? The Yu family is so bold that they dared to assassinate the emperor. Is it because we've been pushing the Yu family too hard in Shang recently that they've become desperate?"

As soon as she finished speaking, no one responded. She was wondering, "Why are you all silent?" Ye Yan had already strode forward, fiercely dropped the knife, and hugged Yun Chen tightly, his voice choked with sobs and unable to speak:

"You boy! You boy...good boy...it's good that you're back!"

Ye Yan hugged Yun Chen tightly, unwilling to let go.

Hua Jue said nothing, while Xun Yan and Xiao Liu also came forward and hugged each other.

The six of them were silent, their shoulders linked, their heads pressed together, tightly hugging each other. Someone was sobbing, but no one knew who it was.

It’s great that I survived another bloody battle. Not only did I survive, but I was also able to meet my brother who had been missing for a long time.

It was only more than three months, but the torment was enough to be called a "long-awaited reunion."

The heart that has been hanging for a long time can finally be put to rest. I am excited, sad, resentful, and distressed...

Everyone was overwhelmed with emotions and didn't know where to start.

Yun Chen felt a sense of grievance and sadness, but also a surge of warmth.

She thought that having these brothers who were willing to die for her in this life would be worth dying for.

After a while, the Huo Mansion returned to peace.

Ye Yan and his guards began to clean up the scene.

Huo Gannian and Yun Chen stayed in "Qiyunju" - Huo Gannian was now in the courtyard of the Huo Mansion in Kyoto. He kept the door closed for three hours and did not allow anyone to approach.

"Are you hurt? Are you feeling alright?"

This was the first question Huo Gannian asked her.

"Do you miss me? I miss you so much, I'm going crazy."

This was the second sentence that Huo Gannian didn't say.

Yun Chen held back his tears and refused to tell her how she had a desperate fight with a black bear in a foreign country and almost lost her life.

He also refrained from mentioning how hard it was for her to travel day and night for over a month to get back, and only smiled and said:

"I'm fine. How's the young master? I haven't seen him for three months. He's lost a lot of weight..."

Looking at her pretending to be strong but with tears in her eyes, he understood everything without saying a word.

"Young Master, I didn't run away from home, nor did I betray the Huo Gang. It's just... because of some special reasons, I can't tell you why I disappeared. I don't want to lie to you, so I can't tell you where I have been for the past three months..."

She frowned and looked at him, her face full of worry, afraid that he would become suspicious of her and alienate her from then on.

But she remembered what the guard leader Xiao Ze had said. It was a great favor from the emperor to keep her life in the Huo Gang. If she said a word she shouldn't have, then Huo Gannian would be one step closer to death.

He smiled, as if he didn't care about the twists and turns behind her at all. He just kept his eyes glued to her and said softly:

"It's alright, it's all right. I'm just afraid I went too far and frightened you into wanting to run away..."

Yun Chen didn't understand what he said and tilted his head in confusion, looking as silly as a child.

Huo Gannian thought about Yun Chen's disappearance and there were only two possibilities:

One is that Yun Chen performed a war dance at the palace banquet, and her superb skills exposed her master, which happened to be related to the emperor's old grudge. The emperor sent people to abduct her for interrogation. After discovering that she was just a simple-minded young guard, it was inconvenient to kill her, so he deliberately took her away from the Huo Mansion to create the illusion that her disappearance had nothing to do with the emperor.

The second possibility is the outcome he is most afraid of...

That was because he was too eager to express his love, too impatient to admit it to himself, hoping to open her "love mind" and one day be able to be intimate with her in dreams.

He was afraid that his intentional or unintentional guidance and training were due to his being too eager for success, which scared her into running away like a frightened rabbit, the farther away from him the better.

This was the first time in Huo Gannian's life that he questioned himself and regretted himself.

But Yunchen finally came back.

There was no trace of evasion or vigilance in her eyes, only a look of grievance.

He then understood in his heart: Old Emperor, I will remember the pain of fear and longing you have suffered for three months.

"Young Master, have you heard of Wind-Scorching Grass? I heard someone say there's a Wind-Scorching Grass in the Dongyan Palace that can cure your leg injury. Let's find a way to get it!" She rubbed her hands together, looking eager to try, and continued:

"With the young master's good brains, the abilities of our personal guards, and the princess as our backer, I think we can give it a try!"

He laughed, raised his hand to touch her head, and couldn't help but let the back of his hand slowly slide down and stop on her cheek, reluctant to leave.

"Fool, Wind-Scorching Grass is just a legend. Even if the Dongyan Palace really existed, how could it be easily invaded?"

She did not avoid his touch, but just smiled with a rosy face and looked at him with bright eyes.

His heart couldn't help but tremble, his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously, and he swallowed.
