After hearing You Rong Rouxue's words, everyone showed joy on their faces, and their excitement was beyond words. After six days of long and arduous journey, they finally set foot on the familiar land of Yongning City again.
The huge spaceship driven by Rong Rouxue slowly landed outside the city like an elegant giant bird. The hatch slowly opened, and people rushed out in a stream.
Xiao Ning stepped hard on the extremely solid ground beneath his feet, and truly felt the solid feeling of his body's center of gravity landing firmly on the ground, as if his long-wandering heart had finally found a home.
He turned around and glanced at the people who returned together. He saw Xiao Ding smiling and said softly:
"Let's go! Let's go home!"
Xiao Ning nodded happily, reached out and picked up the lovely Hong Hong, carefully placing it on his broad shoulders. Hong Hong danced with joy, and kept making happy noises. Xiao Ning shouted excitedly:
"Let's go home! Let's go home!"
After shouting, he walked briskly towards the city gate. Seeing this, others followed him.
Not long after, the group arrived at the gate of Xiao's mansion. Old Wang, who was in charge of the gate, hurried forward and took out the key from his pocket to unlock it. However, at this moment, his face suddenly became solemn, and his originally relaxed expression was instantly replaced by a strange one. He quickly turned to face Xiao Ding and said in a hurried tone:
"Master! This door... is not locked! I'm afraid someone has already entered the house!"
When everyone heard this, their hearts suddenly tightened, and they instantly realized that something was wrong. Song Junwan, who was standing aside, was even more anxious and blurted out:
"What? Is there a thief in the house?"
Lao Wang did not dare to neglect it, he immediately opened the door, rushed into the yard, and began to search carefully. But strangely, the whole yard looked very clean and tidy, not like it had been visited by thieves before.
Just as everyone was looking at each other in confusion, suddenly, a figure walked out of the house slowly like a light breeze. Along with the figure's appearance, there was a gentle cry that seemed to melt people's hearts:
"Who is it?"
When everyone heard the sound, their eyes instantly froze on the person who made the sound. They were all stunned as if they were under a spell.
Yun Yao, wearing a simple apron, walked out gracefully like a blooming lily. When her eyes met those of the crowd, especially when she saw Xiao Ning, she was struck by lightning and screamed in an instant.
"Ning... Ning'er!" The call was filled with endless surprise, longing and disbelief.
Xiao Ning also widened his eyes and looked at Yun Yao in astonishment. He opened his lips slightly and uttered a sentence after a long while: "Senior Sister? Why are you here!"
However, Yun Yao had no time to answer his question at this moment. She took a step without hesitation and rushed into Xiao Ning's arms like a young swallow returning to its nest. As soon as she touched Xiao Ning's body, Yun Yao could no longer suppress the surging emotions in her heart. Tears poured down like a flood, and she cried heartbreakingly.
"Ning'er, you're finally back! Ning'er!" She hugged Xiao Ning tightly, as if she was afraid that he would disappear again in the next second.
Yun Yao's grief-stricken cry was like a heavy hammer, striking hard at the hearts of everyone present, and even the other people in the room were attracted out.
I saw the two sisters Xia Ling and Xia Chan standing side by side, their faces full of tears. When their eyes caught Xiao Ning, they flew forward without hesitation. For a moment, the three women surrounded Xiao Ning, crying one after another, interweaving into a heartbreaking movement.
Xia Ling was sobbing and crying:
"Ning'er, you're finally back! We've been waiting for you so hard!"
Faced with this sudden situation, Xiao Ning was completely panicked. He stood there at a loss, looking at the women crying in front of him, feeling touched but also a little confused. But soon, he came to his senses, quickly reached out and gently patted everyone's back, and said softly:
"Okay, okay, I'm back now, stop crying, stop crying... What happened?"
Xiao Ning was comforting Yun Yao anxiously. Looking at the person in front of him who was crying and trembling slightly, his heart was filled with pity and confusion.
Yun Yao finally stopped crying, her voice still trembling as she said, "Ning'er... Master... Master was forced to get married!"
"What!"
When Xiao Ning heard this, he was stunned as if struck by lightning. He widened his eyes, held Yun Yao's shoulders in disbelief, and asked anxiously: "Senior Sister! Say it again! Master was forced to marry? How could this be? Who forced her to marry?"
Yun Yao sobbed and answered intermittently, "It's Li Mu from Penglai Island!"
"Peng...lai...Island!"
When everyone heard the name, they all gasped, as if they were under a spell and could not move. After a moment, Xiao Ning came back to his senses from the shock and muttered to himself, "Penglai Fairy Island, Penglai Fairy Island... Could it be the Penglai Fairy Island of one of the three legendary immortal sects?"
Yun Yao nodded silently to show her affirmation. Then, as if she had lost all her strength, she hugged Xiao Ning tightly, buried her head deep in his arms, and sobbed again.
