Chapter 4: Still a Youth Upon Return! A Broken Engagement?



Qin Feng was unaware that the deaths of the Fan brothers, Fan Erlong and Fan Bing, had disrupted Wei Yong's plans, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

His sword control skills became more and more proficient, and he was no longer teetering on the edge.

Flying in the air, seeing the setting sun like blood, scattering autumn yellow across the ground, my longing for home grew deeper and deeper.

I wonder if his straightforward father angered his mother.

How is Guo Yunkai, his follower nicknamed "Little Stone," doing now?

His childhood sweetheart, Leng Yuexi, that delicate flower bud must be slowly blooming now.

Back when I left home at the age of 13, I knew nothing. Now I am a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and I am considered a master in Ningguo.

The reason for going home is just a bit embarrassing.

He was very fast, and arrived at the entrance of Ping'an Village in less than two days.

As he approached his hometown, he felt a mix of excitement and trepidation. He stood at the village entrance, gazing quietly, too afraid to go in.

He was afraid of disappointing his parents. He still remembered the eager and gratified look in his father's eyes when he was chosen by the sect's immortal master. If they knew that he had been expelled from the sect, they would definitely be very disappointed.

He took a deep breath and composed himself.

I have a powerful backer now, why would I need to rely on a sect?

He strode into the village.

He hadn't walked two steps when a boy noticed him.

The boy was rather sturdy and had an honest-looking face. He rubbed his eyes, realized it wasn't a hallucination, and roared.

"Uncle Qin, your precious son is back."

After saying that, he rushed towards Qin Feng and gave him a bear hug.

This young man was none other than Qin Feng's little follower, Guo Yunkai, nicknamed "Little Stone".

Qin Feng was both amused and exasperated. He thought to himself, "It's not good for a grown man to act like this." At the same time, he felt a warmth in his heart. It felt so good to be cared for. He could feel the sincere emotions in Xiao Shitou's heart.

He chuckled, patted him on the back, and jokingly scolded, "Alright, you're so old and still so useless. You'll never be able to find a wife."

"Nonsense, that's not true. My parents have already started looking for girls for me."

"Seriously? So early? How old are you? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Qin Feng was somewhat surprised, as Guo Yunkai was half a year younger than him and wasn't even 16 yet.

Little Stone chuckled a few times: "Mom said that if I get married sooner, she can hold her grandson sooner."

Qin Feng was speechless.

"You're really something, and your mother is really something too."

The two brothers had barely exchanged a few words when his parents rushed over.

Without saying a word, his mother pulled Qin Feng into her arms and held him tightly, as if afraid that her son would run away if she let go.

His father was also very excited, watching the scene with a big smile.

With excitement to be seen, more and more people gathered in the village.

Qin Feng was a celebrity in the village. He was taken away by an immortal, and he was someone they could not reach. They all looked at Qin Feng with great interest.

After exchanging pleasantries, his father, Qin Yi, asked:

"Why are you back at this time? Didn't the Immortal Master say that it would be at least ten years before you could return home?"

Qin Feng hesitated for a moment, then decided to tell the truth.

"I am no longer a disciple of the Qingxuan Sect."

His words stunned Qin Yi, and the others were in an uproar.

"How could that be? The Immortal Master once said that you had extraordinary bones and were a natural genius in cultivation."

"Yes, thanks to you, the immortal gave us some pills back then, and my health has improved a lot."

Seeing this, Qin Feng's mother, Xia Yaqin, quickly comforted him:

“It’s alright, it’s fine if you come back. We don’t care. It’s a good opportunity to come back, marry Yuexi, and have a big, healthy son.”

Qin Feng quickly interrupted her, "What is all this nonsense? You just finished complaining about Little Stone's mother, and now you're doing this again. Are you all so eager to have a grandson?"

"Mother, there's no rush, let's take it slow."

Qin Yi came to his senses.

"Yes, no rush. Feng'er just got back, he must be tired. Let's take him home and let him rest first."

Qin Feng and his family of three returned home.

The remaining group of people were chattering amongst themselves.

"Do you think Qin Feng made some mistake and was expelled from the immortal sect?"

"I think it's very likely. It seems best to stay away from him in the future."

"Yes, yes, those who offend the immortals will not have a good ending; they are like gods."

Guo Kaiyun hadn't expected these people to be so pragmatic, clinging to you when there's benefit, and kicking you aside when there's trouble, treating you like a venomous snake. He couldn't contain his anger and argued back:

"We don't know what really happened yet, so I advise you not to gossip."

After saying that, he went home in a huff.

Just then, Qin Feng's childhood sweetheart, Leng Yuexi, arrived and overheard them discussing Qin Feng.

She was initially happy to hear that Qin Feng was back, but she never expected things to turn out this way.

She frowned, unsure of what to do. She and Qin Feng had been betrothed since childhood.

...

At Qin Feng's home.

Qin Yi looked at Qin Feng with a serious expression.

"Tell me in detail what exactly happened."

His mother, Xia Yaqin, also seemed to be listening attentively.

Qin Feng felt there was nothing to hide, so he simply told the truth.

"It means that I did not meet the requirements of the Qingxuan Sect and was expelled from the sect. From then on, I had no further connection with the Qingxuan Sect."

"that's all?"

"that's all."

Qin Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's alright, it's nothing serious. Just stay home from now on, and your father will teach you cultivation."

Qin Feng pursed his lips.

"Dad, can we stop bragging? You're the one who's lecturing me."

Xia Yaqin laughed and scolded, "You brat, your father used to be a cultivator, but he was injured and his cultivation was destroyed, so he became a mortal. Don't underestimate your father."
