Chapter 60 Chapter 60 No Cause, No Effect
Ye Nanque and the system argued and fought all the way. Ye Nanque angrily shouted, "Good boy, you've been messing with me for more than ten years, haven't you? Send me back quickly."
The system was guilty but stubborn: [W-what's your attitude? Can you please speak properly?]
Ye Nanque's head ached: "Okay, I'll talk nicely. Send me back to my body, the one soaking in the spiritual spring."
system:[……]
Ye Nanque felt something was wrong: [Why aren't you talking?]
System: [I am thinking.]
Ye Nanque: [Thinking?]
System: [I've never experienced returning to my original body before. I'll research this first.]
Ye Nanque: [Don't tell me you can't.]
System: [This isn't being researched.]
Ye Nanque: [How many years have you been working?]
System: [Why are you asking this?]
Ye Nanque: [Over the years, you've been a major concern for your boss, right?]
System: [Nonsense, I was an excellent employee a few years ago.]
Ye Nanque: [You're mistaken. You're not an excellent employee, you're a Xiu'er employee.]
System: [If someone hadn't been so insistent on returning to my original world, would I have made this mistake? Ultimately, you should blame yourself. Why did you come back? Just pick one of those options. Oh, I get it. You can't bear to leave Mu Jiulin, so you just love to be gay with him.]
Ye Nanque: [What's wrong with me not wanting to part with him? What's wrong with me liking him? What's wrong with me being gay? I'm reporting you for sexual orientation discrimination!]
System: [Report invalid.]
Ye Nanque: [Who said that?]
System: [If I say it’s invalid, then it’s invalid.]
Ye Nanque: [Beat.jpg/Flying Kick.jpg/Uppercut.jpg/Full Fire.jpg/]
System: [Wow, you hit me with an emoji, Ye Nanque, you can do it...]
Ye Nanque: [slap.jpg/]
System: [You…]
Ye Nanque: [Another slap.jpg/]
The two fought all the way to Peach Blossom Cottage, until a beautiful woman holding a swaddled baby stopped in front of Ye Nanque, leaned down slightly, and asked him, "You are Nanque, right? Do you want to see your brother?"
Ye Nanque finally came to his senses.
This should be Mu Jiulin’s mother Cang Jun.
Ye Nanque peeked into the swaddling clothes. Mu Jiulin's eyes were really big when he was little. Could a baby just one month old have eyes this big? Aren't newborn babies supposed to be wrinkled? To have one so white and clean, smiling at him, was really...
"Junior Brother Mu is so cute." Ye Nanque sighed sincerely.
Ye Nanque: [I can't help but ask that philosophical question.]
System: [Ah, what's the problem?]
Ye Nanque: [Can our child be a child model?]
System: [slap.jpg, are you awake?]
Ye Nanque: [I’m awake now. I’m awake now.]
But what can he do when he wakes up?
Ye Nanque followed Jiang Caiyu to sit down in frustration. His arms were too short to even reach the food. He pushed Jiang Caiyu and gestured, "Master, please pick up some food."
Jiang Caiyu nodded and picked up a piece of osmanthus cake for him.
Ye Nanque ate the osmanthus cake and gestured, "Chicken drumstick."
Jiang Caiyu nodded and passed it to him.
Ye Nanque: "Brown sugar lotus root."
Jiang Caiyu clip.
Ye Nanque: "Dragon beard noodles."
Jiang Caiyu glanced sideways and said, "You ate too much today, which caused you to have food stagnation and turbid qi in your body. It's not suitable for cultivation."
Ye Nanque: "Then I'll go shopping."
Jiang Caiyu: "Come back in a quarter of an hour, don't wander around."
Taking advantage of his small size and inconspicuousness, Ye Nanque walked around the Peach Blossom Cottage. He saw a swing in the backyard and was about to climb up to sit on it when he heard someone walk in. It turned out to be Mu Feng.
Mu Feng called out "Wife," and Cang Jun came out of the room holding Mu Jiulin and asked, "Why are you back? Have all the guests left?"
Mu Feng's face was flushed with drunkenness as he was in a good mood. "I accidentally spilled some wine on my clothes just now. Come back and change clothes."
Cang Jun smiled and said, "You also have such reckless moments. Now that you're a father, you're not as calm as before."
Mu Feng: "I'm really... happy today. I'm sorry to have made you laugh."
Cang Jun came forward and stared into his eyes, his peach blossom eyes full of affection and hooks: "Mulang, are you happier than the day of your wedding?"
Mu Feng avoided his gaze, but his face turned even redder. He changed the subject: "Although Master and the others didn't come, they sent gifts. Given his temper, it's like he has... acknowledged you."
Cang Jun smiled and said, "I know. I also want to thank Mu Lang for helping me to get through this for so many days."
Mu Feng added, "There's been chaos in Nanming recently, and I think they're having a lot of trouble. They probably don't have time to split up, so please don't take it to heart."
Cang Jun paused. "Mulang, do you really want to help? These days, you've been dragged around by us mother and son. I know Nanming's temper best. He just loves to play. After the guests leave, you and I will send Lin'er to Canghai. Together, we can help your master with his worries and fulfill your duty as his disciple. With me on your side, Nanming will definitely give me, his sister, some face."
Ye Nanque had been listening quietly in the corner. Hearing this, his heart suddenly tightened and he sighed, "Don't go." If the Mu Feng couple hadn't shown up, Mu Jiulin wouldn't have wandered around at such a young age. If the Mu Feng couple were still alive, Mu Jiulin would surely... have a very happy family.
Ye Nanque felt a hint of inexplicable pity in his heart.
He was discovered as soon as he made a sound of breathing. Cang Jun's eyes immediately became alert, but when he saw Ye Nanque, he became friendly again: "So it's you, little guy, how did you get here? Where is your master?"
Ye Nanque thought for a moment and pointed towards the house: "Come and see my brother."
Cang Jun took his hand, which was very warm, not like the temperature of a demon at all. Ye Nanque raised her eyes to look at her, and saw a pair of eyes that were exactly the same as Mu Jiulin's, always smiling.
He couldn't help but say, "I will take good care of him."
Cang Jun was stunned for a moment, glanced at Mu Feng who walked into another room to change clothes not far away, lowered his head and looked at Ye Nanque for a while, smiled, as if he knew everything and saw through him.
She asked, "Aren't you Ye Nanque?"
Ye Nanque: "Yes, now... not completely, but it will be in the future."
Cang Jun thought for a moment, his eyes sly, his eyelashes fluttering slightly: "In the future? In the future, how is Jiulin doing?"
How was Mu Jiulin doing? Actually, Mu Jiulin wasn't doing well. He always won, always found a way out of danger, and always encountered unexpected opportunities. But from a mother's perspective, she probably didn't care how high Mu Jiulin's cultivation level was. She cared about whether he was happy, whether he was injured, and whether he had a few close friends around him.
Ye Nanque paused, nodded and said "hmm".
Cang Jun covered his face and laughed out loud, raised his hand and pinched his face: "You are just like that annoying Jiang Caiyu, you can't lie at all."
"Then," she said cheerfully, "I'll have to ask you to take more care of him from now on. Take good care of him for me, accompany him for me, comfort him when he's upset, and stand by him when he's betrayed... There's really so much I need to trouble you with."
Ye Nanque: "If I tell you that you won't show up regarding the Nanming matter, then maybe you won't need me to 'represent you'."
Cang Jun thought for a long time, then shook his head dejectedly: "No, Mu Feng is a disciple of the Saint Medical Sect. He has responsibilities and cannot stay out of this. I also have my responsibilities."
She was only depressed for a moment before brightening up again. "What a strange chance we have to meet today. We've never met before, yet there's no reason for us to meet. It's truly an illogical fate. I have so much to trouble you with, I should at least give you my reward in advance. Have you not yet entered the Sword Sea of the Imperial Sword Sect?"
At this age, Ye Nanque had indeed not yet taken a sword from the sea of swords, and he nodded.
Cang Jun stretched out his fingertips and touched his forehead lightly, and Ye Nanque felt something hot suddenly entering his forehead.
Cang Jun said, "In the Sword Sea of the Imperial Sword Sect, there's a sword forged from the profound ice of the vast sea. I crafted it myself back then, but it hadn't been named, so no one else knew it. When you enter the Heart Refining Prison, this sword will be summoned by you, freeing you from the illusions of the Heart Refining Prison and allowing you to successfully obtain it. I'm giving this sword to you, and I've decided to call it 'No Cause.' Although it has no cause, it has an effect. You must remember this."
Somehow, the two words "no cause" seemed to be planted in Ye Nanque's mind.
Cang Jun brought Ye Nanque to Mu Jiulin's bedside. Mu Jiulin did not cry or make a fuss, but looked at Ye Nanque with his big eyes as before. He even laughed out loud as he looked at her. He really loved to laugh like his mother.
Cang Jun shook the rattle a few times and said, "Brother likes you very much."
When she said this, her eyes did not leave Mu Jiulin. She looked at him again and again with a mother's affection, and never got tired of it.
System: [Prepare to transmit!]
Ye Nanque: [Huh? So sudden, are you ready?]
System: [I think I've figured it out this time. Trust me again.]
Ye Nanque: [Wait a moment!]
He quickly reached out and hugged Mu Jiulin, but he couldn't lift him up even though he was small and weak.
System: […You asked me to wait just to do this?]
Ye Nanque said righteously: [This way I can tell Mu Jiulin, “I held you in my arms when you were a child.”]
System: […What strange reasons.]
The familiar feeling came again. A white light flashed before Ye Nanque's eyes. Okay, another white light flashed. He closed his eyes happily and prepared to return to his body.
Opening his eyes, Qin Qi was standing in front of him with a droopy face, holding two large buns in his hands. "Brother, just have a bite. You just didn't meet Master's requirements this time, so there's no need to be so hard on yourself. Master only asked you to practice for two more hours, and didn't say you can't eat. Just have a bite!"
Ye Nanque looked at his own perfectly formed sword-holding posture, and at Qin Qi, who was about the same height as him, and asked, "Junior Brother Qin, how tall are you?"
Qin Qi hesitated: "I am... less than five feet tall now. I am only in my teens and I still need to grow."
Less than five feet...that's about 1.6 meters.
Ye Nanque: [Okay, okay, you can do it. That's how you made me trust you. You suddenly got me back to 1.6 meters tall? When is this time? How old am I? Can you calculate the timeline correctly?]
