When the children standing far away saw their father open the ice coffin, they subconsciously held their breath.
Then they saw the red phoenix flowers fly into Daddy's body, and then Daddy floated up.
The cubs were all excited when they saw this, but they had been warned by their father not to make any noise, so they did not dare to shout loudly to express their excitement.
So when Bai Fengyu opened his eyes, what he saw was the cubs dancing and jumping around happily.
Bai Fengyu: “…”
Is it the way he opens his eyes that is wrong?
Bai Fengyu reacted quickly and found that his soul had solidified. However, after seeing the familiar figure, the doubts in his heart disappeared.
After the soul-solidified person woke up, the Mingfeng Bell and the Star Disk stopped working and returned to the hands of the Old Phoenix.
The white phoenix Yu, suspended in the air above the Nirvana Pond, slowly descended. As soon as its feet touched the ground, it heard the loud cries of its cubs.
“Daddy!”
"Daddy! I missed you so much!"
Lifting his head subconsciously, Bai Fengyu saw the cubs rushing towards him like little firecrackers. Seeing this, he bent down and opened his arms to catch the cubs rushing towards him.
But the boys used too much force and knocked their father to the ground.
"Daddy, you slept for so long."
"Yes, yes, after daddy fell asleep, those humans wouldn't let us see daddy, and they even beat us." Feng Xiaojin pouted, sounding extremely aggrieved.
"They also asked us to fight with huge monsters, and we won't be given any food if we don't win." Ao Xiaomo thought for a moment and added.
"But father came to find us soon and beat those humans until they cried and screamed." Feng Xiaohong whispered, her face flushed because she saw her father.
When they talked about their father, the cubs became even more excited.
"Yes! Father is so amazing, he just said a few words and those humans flew away! And they screamed so miserably!" Feng Xiaojin was so excited that his face turned red, and he danced with joy to show his father the scene at that time.
"Father is so nice! He gave us gold coins to buy delicious food, and brought us here to wake daddy up!" The little dragon also praised.
"We picked a lot of flowers when father fell asleep, and at night those flowers turned into little stars." Ao Xiaomo thought for a while and spoke.
But the topic deviated from Ao Xiaomo.
"It was so beautiful to turn into a star flower. We even climbed onto Dad's tail and slid down. It was so much fun!"
"You can see very far standing on father's dragon horns." You can tell who said this by the tone.
Ao Qing: "..."
Bai Fengyu: “…”
The cubs don't need their dad's response. They can talk for a long time just to share with him their experiences during the time he was asleep.
The kids nestled in their father's arms and told everything one after another, some of which even Ao Qing didn't know.
Bai Fengyu did not interrupt, but sat on the grass and listened quietly.
Ao Qing understood the boys' feelings at the moment, but he heard their topic shift from humans to him, and soon turned to the flowers they picked and the precious turtles, butterflies and big-tailed squirrels they found.
Seeing that they were talking about the Valley of God and were expected to talk about it for another half an hour, Ao Qing finally couldn't help it.
"Okay, you can talk about it later if you have anything else to say. Let your father get up first."
After hearing what their father said, the cubs thought about it and agreed. After all, their daddy had been rescued, and they would have plenty of time to spend with him in the future.
When the kids got up from their father's lap, their attention was attracted by the flowers around the Nirvana Pond.
Pulling Bai Fengyu up and into his arms, Ao Qing tightened his arms and hugged the person tightly, whispering in a low and hoarse voice, "Ayu, I miss you so much."
Bai Fengyu was stunned for a moment after hearing him say this, and then responded softly, "I miss you too..."
Bai Fengyu's soul has become solid, and when it comes into contact with other people's bodies, it can feel the touch but there is no temperature.
However, Ao Qing felt that when the two of them hugged each other, warmth spread throughout his body, just like soaking in a hot spring.
The two hugged each other for a while and then separated. Seeing this, Old Phoenix, who had been standing by and staring at this side eagerly, hurried over.
"Uncle Fengyu..." Feng Yan said a little nervously.
"You are..." Bai Fengyu turned around and looked over, and was stunned for a moment when he saw the familiar eyes and eyebrows, "...Little Fengyan?" "It's me! Uncle Fengyu still remembers me." There was some excitement in the old Fenghuang's eyes.
"How come you've grown so... big?"
Seeing the wrinkles at the corners of Fengyan's eyes, Bai Fengyu was about to say the word "old" subconsciously, but fortunately he reacted in the end.
However, Feng Yan also knew what he meant. She was indeed old and looked more like an elder than her two uncles.
"Ten thousand years have passed, and I have indeed grown old." Feng Yan smiled embarrassedly.
"Ten thousand years..." Bai Fengyu was stunned when he heard Feng Yan's words.
He had woken up once before, and at that time he thought he had only been sleeping for a few thousand years at most, but he didn't expect that ten thousand years had passed.
"More than 17,000 years to be exact." Ao Qing's voice suddenly rang out.
More than 17,000 years, which is nearly 20,000 years.
Bai Fengyu turned around and looked at his Taoist partner. The man in front of him looked at him with the same deep and gentle eyes as always.
When Bai Fengyu thought about the fact that this person had been waiting for him for nearly 20,000 years, he felt sad.
"I'm sorry..." Bai Fengyu said hoarsely, but didn't know what to say after opening his mouth.
Hearing him say this, Ao Qing knew what he meant. He reached out and held his right hand, saying as he walked, "In fact, after I arranged a place for you to nourish your soul, I also fell into a deep sleep."
"Besides..." Ao Qing paused and looked up at Bai Fengyu with a firm and serious look. "Even if I have to wait tens of thousands of years, I will be happy with it."
Bai Feng Yu Zheng stared at him in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.
He and Ao Qing actually fell in love at a friendly banquet between the dragon and phoenix tribes. Their eyes accidentally met at the time, and Ao Qing didn't come over to talk to him until the banquet was almost over.
Afterwards, somehow they reached a consensus, and Ao Qing began to come to Phoenix Valley to find him frequently.
Sometimes they found a rare treasure and gave it to him. Sometimes they went out to experience with him, commonly known as treasure hunting.
Before the catastrophe occurred, he and Ao Qing had been together for only two hundred years.
Bai Fengyu always thought that Ao Qing's character was rational and restrained, even in that kind of matter.
When the two were together, Ao Qing was always silent and taciturn, and he adhered to the principle of saying less and doing more. Bai Fengyu could only find out his feelings for her from his every move.
After all, Yi Tiaolong gave him all the treasures he had collected, and also gave him all the rare treasures he found when he went out to train.
If this isn't love, then Bai Fengyu really doesn't know what is.
And now, for the first time, Bai Fengyu heard Ao Qing say such straightforward and blushing words, and he was unable to react for a moment.
However, he also confirmed how deep Ao Qing's feelings for him were.
Ao Qing didn't know that because of his dull personality and poor tongue, he restrained himself from hurting him in that matter, and was misunderstood so deeply by his partner.
In fact, Ao Qing knew that his previous personality was not likable. He was dull and taciturn and could not say anything likable.
Being able to become a Taoist couple with Bai Fengyu was probably the luckiest moment in his life.
He originally thought that since he couldn't express himself, he should just talk less and do more. One day, his partner would be able to feel the depth of his feelings for him.
After all, the life of the divine beast is very long, and he will spend the rest of his life with his Taoist partner.
But he didn't expect an accident to break his expectations.
It was also that catastrophe that made Ao Qing realize the impermanence of life, so he didn't want to be the same as before.
It is not difficult to guess the reason for Ao Qing's change.
But Bai Fengyu now knows that no matter what he becomes, his love for him will never change.
After figuring it out, Bai Fengyu showed a faint smile on his face and replied to Ao Qing's previous words, "I am resolute."
Hearing his answer, Ao Qing's expression changed slightly. He suddenly took a step closer and hugged the person in his arms, holding him tightly.
"I'm so glad I made it in time..."
He had never believed the words of the little jade bead called "system", but now Ao Qing was glad that the system appeared, allowing him to wake up from his slumber in time to rescue his Taoist partner and cubs.
Ao Qing's words reminded Bai Fengyu of what the cubs had just said.
"What are those things Xiaoyan and the others were talking about just now?"
When he asked, Ao Qing told him everything from beginning to end, including the system.
Of course, before saying this, Ao Qing had created a shield. The fact that he had severely injured those humans before had attracted the attention of that consciousness. Who knows if it was eavesdropping at this moment.
After listening to Ao Qing's narration, Bai Fengyu did not have any intense reaction. After all, the world is full of wonders.
However, he was curious about a few things.
"The Way of Heaven is fair, why would such a consciousness arise?"
Bai Fengyu was really curious, but when he saw Ao Qing pondering for a long time and finally shaking his head to indicate that he didn't know, he didn't dwell on this issue.
"Where is that little spirit called the system now?"
"Asleep in my sea of consciousness."
"...Is this okay?" Bai Fengyu frowned slightly, with some worry in his eyes.
The sea of consciousness is very important to a cultivator, and the same is true for their divine beasts. Bai Fengyu was really worried about letting a strange little spirit enter the sea of consciousness.
"It's okay. I know what I'm doing." Ao Qing was very touched by the Taoist couple's concern and worry.
"This system must be not simple if it can resist that consciousness. It's better to be careful." Bai Fengyu thought about it and said something to persuade him.
"Okay, I'll let it out when it wakes up."
The indulgence in Ao Qing's voice made Bai Fengyu realize what he had just said and done, and he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
The couple sat on a big rock and chatted casually, enjoying the warmth of the moment, but there was a hint of ambiguity flowing between them as they looked at each other.
Of course, it would be better if those brats didn't come over and cause trouble from time to time.
When the couple and their children left the Nirvana Pond, Bai Fengyu was holding a large bunch of colorful flowers in her arms, which were picked by the children.
When leaving, the cubs thought they could sit on their father's back with their daddy this time, but they didn't expect that their father would only carry them alone.
As for them, they could only sit on a big white cloud given to them by their father.
"Why doesn't father let us sit with daddy? There are so many seats!" Feng Xiaojin looked at his father's back in front of him, feeling a little unhappy.
"Maybe... father thinks we are too troublesome." Ao Xiaomo said after thinking for a while.
