Mu Yun and Jin Fengxi traveled all the way and finally arrived at the residence of the Three-Eyed Clan in the Holy Land.
From afar, the gate of the towering mansion was half-open, creaking in the howling cold wind.
Mu Yun stood in the distance, his eyes red.
Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
That was my home, and now it has become so desolate.
Jin Fengxi standing by was also very sad.
She held Mu Yun's big hand tightly and said, "Let's go in."
"Um."
The two entered the mansion.
The courtyard was overgrown with weeds. The once smooth stone road had been eroded by time and became bumpy. Wild grass that grew tenaciously in the cracks spread wantonly.
Most of the pavilions and towers that once stood there are now in ruins, with some even left with only broken walls and broken roof tiles scattered all over the ground, forming piles of ruins.
In the corner, the branches of several dead trees twisted and stretched towards the sky, without a trace of life.
Mu Yun held Jin Fengxi's hand and slowly walked around the mansion.
The wind blew past them with a hint of chill.
Mu Yun's eyes were full of memories.
He said softly, "Feng Xi, look over there. That's where my cousins and I used to play."
"At that time, we chased and played in the yard."
"My aunt and the others were just watching us with a smile."
His voice trembled slightly, and he pointed to a collapsed corridor.
"And that garden, once filled with all kinds of flowers."
"They were all planted by my mother and aunt."
"My mother loves flowers the most. They emit charming fragrance in all seasons."
"When I was a kid, I was playing in the flowers and my mother scolded me badly."
Jin Fengxi covered her mouth and laughed secretly, "Really? Then you are really naughty."
"Yeah, I still want my mother to scold me, but unfortunately I can't hear it anymore."
"Mu Yun..."
Mu Yun smiled and shook his head, "I'm fine, don't worry."
They continued walking, and Mu Yun pointed to a dilapidated house and said, "This is my room. I always studied and learned to read here when I was a child."
"At that time, I never thought that one day this place would become what it is today."
As he was speaking, Mu Yun stopped at the door of the mansion hall.
His eyes were filled with complex emotions, including nostalgia for the past and sorrow for the present bleak scene.
Suddenly, he knelt on the ground with a thud, took out the incense that had been prepared long ago from his ring, and lit it with trembling hands.
Wisps of green smoke rose up, and Mu Yun looked at the swaying flames with a low and solemn voice.
"Dad, mom, uncle, aunt, and relatives in the clan."
"I, Mu Yun, have returned to see you."
Jin Fengxi stood quietly beside him, her eyes full of heartache.
She knelt beside him, held Mu Yun's hand, and said softly, "Dad, Mom, I will always be with Mu Yun."
"No matter how many difficulties and obstacles we face, we will face them together."
"Please rest assured, father and mother, and relatives in the clan."
A gentle breeze blew by.
This breeze is not cold, but has a slight warmth.
Mu Yun turned to look at her, tears glistening in his eyes.
"I love you, Feng Xi."
"I love you too."
In front of this desolate mansion, the two figures seemed particularly small and yet particularly warm.
The sun sets...
The two began to clear out a room for the night.
They divided the work tacitly, and Jin Fengxi found tools to clean up the thick dust and debris on the ground.
Mu Yun sorted out the old furniture and put it in another room.
With the joint efforts of the two, the originally dilapidated and messy house gradually had a warm atmosphere.
Mu Yun took out a soft quilt from the storage ring and spread it on the slightly worn bed.
Jin Fengxi arranged some small items she brought with her, adding a touch of homely atmosphere to the house.
As night falls, soft moonlight shines into the house through the window.
Mu Yun and Jin Fengxi sat side by side on the bed, their shoulders gently touching each other.
Mu Yun gently put his arm around Jin Fengxi's shoulders.
She leaned into his arms, a happy smile on her face.
"Mu Yun, you will be my man from now on, so you must be obedient."
Mu Yun's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a doting smile.
He gently scratched Jin Fengxi's nose and said, "Yes, my lady, I will listen to you from now on."
Jin Fengxi blushed slightly and said coquettishly, "You are so sweet."
As he spoke, he reached out and gently hit Mu Yun's chest.
Mu Yun took her hand and pulled her up.
Then, the two of them started walking around in circles in the cozy little house.
Jin Fengxi's laughter like silver bells echoed in the house.
As they turned around, their pace gradually slowed down and they stared into each other's eyes.
Jin Fengxi raised her head slightly and looked at him, "Mu Yun, being with you makes me feel like the happiest person in the world."
Mu Yun's heart trembled suddenly, struck by her straightforward love.
He held Jin Fengxi's face in his hands, gently stroking her flushed cheeks with his thumbs, locking his gaze with hers affectionately, and slowly moving closer.
Jin Fengxi's breathing became rapid, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her cheeks became hotter.
She subconsciously bit her lower lip, her eyes full of anticipation and shyness.
Just when their lips were about to touch, Jin Fengxi winked playfully, deliberately stepped back, and smiled.
"It's not so easy for you to kiss me."
Mu Yun was not willing to give up. He used his arms to hold her tightly in his arms, and held the back of her head with his other hand, leaving her nowhere to escape.
His lips eagerly pressed against Jin Fengxi's, touching her gently at first, as if testing and cherishing this wonderful moment.
