Yun Qinghong's reaction was more intense than Yun Che had expected. For a person like Yun Qinghong, he could remain calm even when faced with a mountain collapse, but the word "friendship" was something that was more important than life. How could he accept the fact that the best brother in his life, who had saved his family, died because of him, and even his entire family collapsed...
Mu Yurou supported Yun Qinghong. She was the person who knew him best in the world. She knew how heavy a blow this incident would be to him. She did not comfort him, but cried silently with him.
Yun Che consoled him, “Dad, Uncle Xiao passed away to Paradise 22 years ago. He may have been reborn as a human being now, and is living a more perfect life than his previous life. Don’t blame yourself and feel sad anymore. You are the head of the Yun Family, the pillar of the entire family, and the father of Yun Xiao and me. Nothing in this world can knock you down.”
"I'm fine... I'm fine... I'm fine... I'm fine..."
Yun Qinghong said "it's okay" four times in a row, his eyes were unfocused, his face was still pale, and he didn't look "okay" at all. Yun Xiao bit his lip, stepped forward and said loudly: "Dad, don't be like this. This is not your fault, and... and my biological father and you are good brothers. Even if he really died because of saving you, he must have died without regrets and unwillingness. I believe that if it was my biological father who escaped that year, even if you knew the consequences, you would definitely make the same choice... So, Dad, don't blame yourself. This is my biological father's own choice. He won't blame you, and no one will blame you... Dad, you live well and treat yourself well, so that my biological father's spirit in heaven can rest assured..."
Although Xiao Ying was Yun Xiao's biological father, he was, after all, a name Yun Xiao had never seen, and which had never appeared in his memory. He didn't even know of this person's existence until today. So, apart from the blood connection, he had no real feelings for his biological father. Upon hearing that he was no longer in this world, apart from the piercing pain and emptiness deep in his blood, he didn't feel too much sadness, at least not like Yun Qinghong who was devastated... and Yun Qinghong had raised him for more than twenty years.
Yun Che did not expect that Yun Xiao's emotions not only did not get out of control, but he also comforted Yun Qinghong. And for Yun Qinghong, Yun Xiao's comfort was better than a thousand words from others, because Yun Xiao was Xiao Ying's descendant, the continuation of his bloodline. He could repay and place his endless gratitude and self-blame on Xiao Ying, and the comfort from Yun Xiao gave him something close to the Xiao family's forgiveness...
Yun Qinghong's eyes gradually regained clarity. He stared at Yun Xiao in a daze, then suddenly stretched out his hands and grabbed Yun Xiao's shoulders: "Xiao'er, you really... don't blame me? It's me who made you lose your biological parents..."
“No blame.” Yun Xiao shook his head without any hesitation: “Also, although I lost my biological parents, didn’t God make up for it by giving me the parents who loved me the most? I only have respect and gratitude for my parents, how could I blame you? My biological parents would not blame you if they were still alive. On the contrary, using their own lives to save their good brothers should also be a kind of satisfaction and happiness. It’s like... if one day, my eldest brother is in danger and my life can save him, I will definitely have no regrets...”
“Yun Xiao…” Yun Che muttered in a low voice.
“Good…good boy!” Yun Qinghong patted Yun Xiao’s shoulder heavily, raised his head, and suddenly laughed: “Hahahaha…you are worthy of being my son, Yun Qinghong, and worthy of being Xiao Ying’s son! Brother Xiao, if you are still alive in heaven, you will surely laugh heartily when you see that you have such a son…Brother Xiao, your son is my son! Don’t worry, as long as I, Yun Qinghong, am still alive, I will never allow anyone to bully our common son!”
"Xiao'er, thank you." Mu Yurou said softly. She knew that if Yun Xiao hadn't said these words, Yun Qinghong, who valued friendship more than life, would definitely find it difficult to accept all this in a short period of time.
“Che’er, is Grandpa Xiao, who raised you, okay now?” Yun Qinghong asked.
“Grandpa is fine, and he’s healthy now.” Yun Che’s eyes flashed with sadness. “It’s just that he’s had a very hard time these years. The pain of losing his son, the sorrow of losing his wife… He had to endure everything to raise me and my aunt. Moreover, my profound veins were completely damaged since I was a child, and I couldn’t cultivate my profound veins. I became the laughing stock of the family and even the entire Floating Cloud City. Grandpa was also ridiculed, and his status in the Xiao family plummeted… However, despite all this, Grandpa never had any resentment towards me, the ‘culprit’. Instead, he gave me the same love as my aunt, watched me grow up, protected me from the wind and rain, taught me the principles of being a human being, and comforted me again and again when I was ridiculed and bullied… While he was struggling to find the murderer who killed Uncle Xiao, he also searched countless times for famous doctors and rare medicines that might be able to cure my profound veins…”
Yun Qinghong had no doubt that a father who could raise a son like Xiao Ying must be a great and extraordinary father. He sighed deeply and said, "Che'er, the great kindness of the Xiao family will be remembered forever in our hearts. Grandpa Xiao who raised you... is your grandpa for life! In the future, no matter how high you reach or how remarkable your achievements are, you will never forget these!"
“Yes!” Yun Che nodded heavily. He turned to Yun Xiao and said, “Yun Xiao, although your biological parents are no longer with you, you still have a grandfather in this world. He is a very loving and great grandfather. A few years ago, after I achieved something, he felt relieved, but he also had the intention to die. It was not until I told him that you might still be in this world that he had hope and gave up the intention to die. If there is a way to return to the Profound Sky Continent one day, I will definitely take you back with me. Grandpa will definitely be very happy to see you... You also have a little aunt. Although she is one year younger than you, she is your biological aunt. She is very playful and kind. When you meet her, you will definitely be grateful to have such a relative... And, you also have a betrothed... um..."
"Arranged marriage?" Yun Xiao stared.
Yun Che was a little excited when he spoke, and he even brought up the “childhood marriage” between Yun Xiao and Xia Qingyue. As soon as he said it, he was dumbfounded. Facing Yun Xiao’s innocent gaze, he could only smile awkwardly and said, “Well, Dad, Mom, there is one thing I forgot to tell you. When I was in the Profound Sky Continent, I was already married.”
And he got married twice!
"Oh?" Yun Qinghong smiled.
"Really?" Mu Yurou exclaimed, her expression was both excited and nervous: "So, I already have a daughter-in-law? Then... how old is she this year, whose daughter is she? Is she pretty? Is she well-behaved? Is she good to you?"
After Mu Yurou asked a series of questions, Yun Che scratched his head and said awkwardly, “I got married when I was sixteen, and… actually… the person I married was arranged by her father and Uncle Xiao before she and Yun Xiao were born, and in the end… I ended up marrying her.”
If it weren’t for what happened back then, it should have been Yun Xiao who would have married Xia Qingyue. Although Yun Che was completely unaware of it at the time, he had in fact robbed Yun Xiao’s fiancée. He said with a little trepidation: “Yun Xiao, you won’t blame me for robbing your… uh, childhood sweetheart, right?”
Yun Xiao was stunned for a moment, and finally understood. He quickly waved his hands, even showing a little panic on his face: "No, no, no... No, no, no! Absolutely not! I already have a seventh sister... It's better for big brother to marry her, it's better for big brother to marry her."
Yun Xiao looked like he was actually somewhat relieved. After he finished speaking, he lowered his voice and whispered in Yun Che’s ear, “Brother, this… the fact that I have a fiancée, you must not tell Seventh Sister. Otherwise… she might get angry.”
“Oh! I definitely won’t tell you.” Yun Che said hastily… Bai Xu was shocked.
"Speaking of which... my childhood sweetheart... oh no no no, it's my sister-in-law, what's her name? Is she pretty?" Yun Xiao asked cautiously. Although Yun Xiao had absolutely no thoughts about other women, he would be curious about "childhood sweethearts".
Yun Che pinched his chin and said, “Her name is Xia Qingyue, and she is the same age as us. She is pretty, but her personality is a bit dull. Her biggest pursuit is profound strength. Apart from cultivation, she is not very interested in other things. A few days after she married me, she became a disciple. In the following years, I didn’t see her many times. As for now, I think she has even forgotten me.”
"Oh!" Yun Xiao nodded, and his mind immediately sketched out the image of a woman with dull eyes, a stiff face, and a cold expression... While thinking, he silently shrank his neck and breathed a sigh of relief... Phew! Fortunately, my eldest brother married her. If he really married a woman like this, I would be so bored. Seventh sister is still the best, with such a cute voice, such cute eyes, such a cute temper, and even so cute when she gets angry...
Hmm? Pretty? No matter how pretty she is, can she be as pretty as my seventh sister... Yun Xiao thought firmly.
"The person Xiao Ying is willing to marry must be good." Mu Yurou's eyes became hazy again: "I didn't expect that my son has already started a family."
Yun Che moved his lips, but in the end he still didn't say that he actually had two wives. In addition, he also couldn't say that he had a child with another woman other than his wife, because that would only make them worry more.
“Che’er, what’s wrong with your Xuanmai? Who cured it?” Yun Qinghong asked the question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time.
Yun Che replied: “I have had two masters. One taught me medical skills, and the other recast my profound veins when I was sixteen and guided me in my training and experience.”
Yun Qinghong was deeply moved: "You are only twenty-two years old, but your medical skills are far beyond the first divine doctor in the Illusory Demon Realm... You recast your Xuanmai at the age of sixteen, so you have only been practicing Xuan for six years. After six years of practice, the Xuanli of the Sky Profound Realm can easily defeat the early stage Tyrant Emperor. Your two masters must be extraordinary people."
His master, the medical saint, was indeed an extraordinary man.
But as for Jasmine...
That is simply an incomprehensible monster!
