"Yu Rou, brother-in-law, you have all recovered...are you really fully recovered?" The future head of the Mu family was now dancing with excitement like a child.
Yun Che had a rough idea of Mu Yubai’s personality today. He was a person who showed his emotions clearly on his face, and was upright and unwilling to suppress his emotions. At this moment, the excitement and surprise in his heart were fully displayed on his face.
"Ten days ago, we fully recovered. These days, we have been wearing Xuanfeng buckles to conceal the aura of Xuanli." Mu Yurou smiled faintly. After more than 20 years, she couldn't help crying with joy several times when she saw the man who had accompanied her all her life stand up from the wheelchair and regain his former majesty. No one knew better than her how much pain this proud man had endured every day during the 22 years of disability.
“Both the body and the profound strength have been fully restored, not just a flash in the pan.” Yun Qinghong raised his palm and smiled, “All of this is thanks to Che’er. It only took less than two months. I, Yun Qinghong, think I have seen a lot, but if it hadn’t happened to me, I would never have believed it. Che’er’s skills are miraculous. All the divine doctors in the Illusory Demon Realm combined can hardly match him. I’m afraid that the legendary Golden Immortal is no more than this, hehe.”
This evaluation was undoubtedly ridiculously high, and it came from Yun Qinghong. However, Mu Yubai did not think it was an exaggeration at all. He knew better than anyone how disabled Yun Qinghong and Mu Yurou were. Since twenty years ago, no one in the entire Illusory Demon Realm believed that they could recover... not even to the physical condition of a normal person.
What appeared before his eyes at this moment could not be called a miracle!
Moreover, it only took less than two months!
Mu Yubai pulled Yun Che’s shoulders, his eyes widened, and he said excitedly: “Good boy… I, Mu Yubai, have lived for more than 180 years, and the only person I have ever truly obeyed is my brother-in-law Yun Qinghong. But now, I obey you ten times more! I am completely prostrated. You saved my brother-in-law, which means you saved the entire Yun family. You saved my sister Yu Rou, so you are even more of a great benefactor to my Mu family. Hmm…”
Mu Yubai’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he tightened his grip on Yun Che’s hand… This was the strength of an emperor, and Yun Che grimaced in pain: “Boy… Oh no no, little brother Yun, how about we become sworn brothers? From now on, I will be your big brother, and you will be my little brother. Your business is my business! If anyone dares to bully you, I will smash his head with one punch!”
The young master of the Mu family took the initiative to ask for sworn brotherhood. If this news were spread, it would probably shock the whole city. If it were normal, Yun Che would definitely agree happily... With such a powerful backer, Yun Che could almost walk sideways in the Monster King City. But when Mu Yubai said this, Yun Che was frightened and broke into a cold sweat. He waved his hands in panic: "Senior Mu Mu Mu Mu, this is not allowed. I am just a junior, how dare I become sworn brothers with Senior Mu."
The difference in seniority wasn't really a big problem, but the key point was that Mu Yubai was his biological uncle! If they became sworn brothers, once they recognized each other as relatives, Mu Yubai might want to find a piece of tofu to kill himself.
"Tsk!" Mu Yubai threw his hands and said, "What juniors and seniors? It's all bullshit. Although you are younger and your profound strength is weaker, your medical skills and the courage you showed today make me willing to call you big brother! Well... if you don't want to be a younger brother, I can call you big brother in the future! It's not a big deal!"
Mu Yubai's words were not forced. Yun Qinghong and Mu Yurou were both so disabled, but they were able to fully recover in two months. In Mu Yubai's eyes, Yun Che could be called a god! If such a person could become his own, it would be worth it no matter how much he spent. As a mysterious person, who would be free from illness, disaster, injury, and suffering? With Yun Che around, it was like having countless more lives. It would be difficult for him to die. Even if he was disabled like a dog, he could still recover to full health... If Mu Yubai was asked to choose between ten emperors and one Yun Che, Mu Yubai would definitely choose Yun Che without hesitation.
Yun Che said with a bitter face: “Senior Mu, I really… really…”
Mu Yubai's face suddenly fell, and he said unhappily: "Why? Do you look down on me, Mu Yubai, and think that I am not worthy of being sworn brothers with you?"
“Of course not.” Yun Che waved his hand. “Mu Yubai is willing to make friends with me in this way, so I am naturally very happy. But the problem is that I am already a brother to Yun Xiao, and your sister and brother-in-law are my adoptive parents. If I become a brother to you, the generation relationship will be completely messed up. This is unfair to the seniors, and it is also a bit unfair to my adoptive parents.”
"What's the big deal? Let's talk about our own things. It's not a big deal. I know that you and Yun Xiao are sworn brothers." Mu Yubai waved his hands and shouted nonchalantly. This heart is really big.
"Okay, big brother, don't embarrass Che'er." Mu Yurou said with a smile: "Even if you want to be sworn brothers with Che'er regardless of seniority, you should at least show your sincerity. How can you be so aggressive right from the start? It would be strange if Che'er is not scared."
Mu Yubai glared, then slapped his head and said in annoyance, “That’s right! Look at my brain. Suddenly someone popped up and asked to become my sworn brother. I didn’t want to… Hey! Yun Che… Oh no, Brother Yun, I was too abrupt just now. Come to my Mu family some other day, and I will definitely let you see my sincerity. I, Mu Yubai, promise you that I am definitely worthy of your sworn brotherhood!”
"Okay, okay, let's talk about this later. Big brother, go back and tell father about what happened today so that he can be prepared. Something big will happen at the Demon King Ceremony in a month. Qinghong and I will go back in two days." Mu Yurou said.
"Well, if the old man knew that you and your brother-in-law have fully recovered, he would probably be so happy that he wouldn't be able to sleep for three days... Oh! When you and your brother-in-law go back, you must take this kid with you!" Mu Yubai said with emphasis.
“Xiao’er, you and your mother should go and see your uncle off.” Yun Qinghong said.
"Ah? Yes, Dad." Yun Xiao was still a little dazed. Obviously, he still couldn't fully accept and digest everything that happened today.
Mu Yubai glanced at Yun Qinghong. He understood that Yun Qinghong asked Mu Yurou and Yun Xiao to see him off together because he wanted to talk to Yun Che alone. He did not refuse, waved his hand, and left in big strides.
“Dad, do you have something to say to me?” After they left, only Yun Qinghong and Yun Che were left in the courtyard.
“Yes.” Yun Qinghong nodded, then smiled and said, “Che’er, this time it’s all thanks to you. If it weren’t for you, the Yun family’s ten thousand years of loyalty would have been destroyed, and there might even be no way back from that.”
Yun Che grinned, “Hehe, Dad is too polite. I am half a member of the Yun family after all. Besides, it is you, Dad, who has the upper hand over everything. And with Dad’s wisdom, even if I were not there, he should have seen through everything a long time ago.”
Yun Qinghong shook his head and said, “Over the years, I have been disabled and I know that I am no longer able to support the Yun family, so I have been keeping a low profile. Although I have long noticed that Prince Huai has changed his mind, and I also guessed that his hidden hand may have begun to reach out to the Yun family, but I don’t know where it has reached. Moreover, if you hadn’t restored our bodies and profound strength, even if I knew everything, I would be powerless to save it.”
Yun Che thought for a moment and said, “Father, I have a guess… I wonder if the elders of your generation have not abandoned you because of your disability over the years? You have been completely ignored over the years. Is that something you did on purpose?”
Yun Qinghong smiled and looked at him approvingly: "Indeed. Although I didn't want to give the position of the head of our family to others, I was disabled at that time, and Xiao'er was not my biological child. Instead of dragging down the Yun family with my disabled body, I might as well hand over the sovereignty to Yun Waitian. After all, although the glory of our family is important, it is not comparable to the future of the Yun family. If it weren't for Che'er helping me recover, today, I was ready to see Yun Waitian succeed as the head of the family. Now that I have recovered and have enough strength to shoulder the responsibility of the family, I will never let the position of the head of the family pass to others. Che'er, you really changed the fate of our entire Yun family. This great favor is enough for our Yun family to remember for thousands of generations."
“I am alone with you because I have something to confess to you.” Yun Qinghong exhaled slightly and said with some regret: “Yun Xinyue, I actually let Venerable Yanlong kill her on purpose.”
“I know.” Contrary to Yun Qinghong’s expectations, Yun Che answered directly without any surprise. He continued, “With Dad’s ability and the fact that he was so close at the time, it would have been easy for him to protect Yun Xinyue when the Stone Dragon Venerable attacked.”
"...Do you think I'm too cruel and vicious?"
“No!” Yun Che shook his head. “On the contrary, I very much agree with Dad’s decision. Yun Xinyue has already mentioned ‘Helian’ and ‘Prince Huai’, so there is no need to ask any more. Although he was poisoned and forced, he actually murdered his fellow disciples for his own survival and for the promised title of ‘family head’ and ‘king’. What’s even more hateful is that he actually did not hesitate to harm the entire family! For such a serious crime, it would not be excessive to die ten thousand times! And if Yun Waitian was executed by the family, even if he had nothing to say, he would still feel resentful. And it would be the best if he was ‘killed at the right time’ by Prince Huiye. On the one hand, it would make him feel hatred for the Huai family for killing his son, and on the other hand, Dad would comfort and forgive him, which would make him grateful and feel guilty, so that he would be loyal to Dad and the Yun family and would have no other thoughts. After all, Yun Waitian is the eldest elder of the Yun family and a major pillar of the Yun family besides Dad. He cannot be lost. This result is the most perfect.”
Yun Qinghong looked at Yun Che deeply, then burst into laughter: “Hahahaha… Che’er, I underestimated you after all. I find it hard to believe that you are only twenty-two years old this year. With your talent and character, I would not doubt you even if you said you have a thousand years of experience.”
Yun Che also laughed and sighed in his heart… What I have encountered, the life and death and dangers I have experienced, I am afraid that even if others spend thousands of years together, they cannot compare to me…
