Ji Fengyao took two steps forward, opened her arms to Ji Fengxiao, and said with a gentle smile, "What, don't you recognize your older sister?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Fengxiao suddenly dropped the rivets and small wooden hammer in his hand, rushed over and threw himself into Ji Fengyao's arms, choking back tears, "Sister! Sister! You've finally come!"

Feeling the little boy's close affection in her arms, Ji Fengyao's heart softened. She raised her hand and gently stroked the soft hair on the back of the little guy's head and neck, and said with a smile, "You're a little man now, why are you crying? We've only been apart for a few days, and now we've seen each other again, haven't we? Where's your brother? Why isn't he working with you?"

"Ugh... Brother... Brother Xiao Chen went to find... Feng Hua..." Ji Feng Xiao was too excited and embarrassed to cry out loud, so she sobbed in her throat and spoke intermittently.

"Looking for Fenghua?" Ji Fengyao frowned slightly, half-squatting down. She took out a silk handkerchief and wiped Ji Fengxiao's tears while asking gently, "Fenghua also arrived in Danling Continent? How did you know about him?"

"Fenghua was originally with me..." Ji Fengxiao was embarrassed to keep crying, so he held back for a while before calming down and telling her about his relationship with Fenghua, as well as how he met Hei Xiao and Ji Fengming.

After hearing Ji Fengxiao's words, Ji Fengyao's joy at reuniting with her family gradually turned into deep worry.

"Sister, Fenghua will be alright, you will heal him, right?" Ji Fengxiao asked Ji Fengyao with hopeful eyes.

"Yes, sister will heal him, don't worry," Ji Fengyao forced a smile and reassured him.

"Everyone's still waiting, let's go inside first," Shang Xiye stepped forward and patted Xiao Fengxiao's head, teasing him in a deep voice, "You little master, aren't you going to assign us rooms?"

"Oh, yes, yes, your brother and Xiao Chen have already assigned you rooms," Ji Fengxiao said happily, her face beaming as she led everyone into the room.

When everyone reached the main gate, they saw a person sitting on the steps.

Ji Fengxiao then remembered Xuan En and quickly stepped forward to take Xuan En's hand, saying to Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye, "Sister, brother-in-law, this is Xuan En. He's an orc that my brother found in the town at the foot of the mountain. He's very clever; he learns everything in no time. He even helped them build this courtyard!"

When Shang Xiye met Xuan En's beast-like gaze, her heart trembled slightly for some reason, and she instinctively felt a little displeased.

Xuan En may indeed be an orc, but not a monster.

He possessed human intelligence, yet he was accustomed to the lifestyle of wild beasts.

His wildness is harder to eradicate than that of a demon beast.

Ji Fengyao felt similarly towards Xuan En—an inexplicable aversion and a reluctance to get close.

But they had also seen before that Xuan En and Feng Xiao worked together very well.

Ji Fengming and Xiao Chen have been gone for so long, and he has spent so much time alone with Feng Xiao, yet he hasn't harmed her. This suggests that he still possesses human sanity and should pose no danger.

Therefore, Ji Fengyao and Shang Xiye couldn't say anything.

After arranging accommodations for everyone, Ji Fengyao personally cooked a reunion dinner for them.

She stayed with Ji Fengxiao until late at night, and only after he fell asleep did she return to her own room with Shang Xiye.

As soon as they returned to their room, Ji Fengyao casually set up an isolation array. Holding Shang Xiye's hands, she looked up at him and asked, "Master, Fenghua... can he still be saved?"
