Chapter 30

The young man stood in the forest with his eyes closed and sword in hand. The breeze rustled the leaves and everything around him seemed to slow down. Three leaves attacked the young man at an abnormal speed. Although they were just ordinary leaves, given the current situation, no one would want to let these leaves get close to them.

When the leaves were only a foot away from the boy, he finally made a move. In an instant, all three leaves were chopped off by his sword. When the leaves fell to the ground, the boy opened his eyes.

Ye Yunhao looked at the sword in his hand with great surprise in his eyes. He had been cultivating the tacit understanding between himself and Wen Dao in the past few days. For a swordsman, if he couldn't even control the sword in his hand, then he would have no chance of winning in the battle. The sword in his hand is not only a weapon, but also a partner fighting side by side.

After only a few days of practice, he always felt that something was missing, so he boldly asked Shuang Bei to accompany him in training. Perhaps only in danger could he unleash his greatest potential, and obviously Ye Yunhao succeeded.

Just when Ye Yunhao couldn't wait to run to Shuang Bei to share his joy, a white figure rushed into Shuang Bei's arms before him.

The weight in his arms startled Shuangbei. Looking at the eyes reflecting his own figure and the slightly trembling ears, Shuangbei couldn't help but stretched out his hand to pinch the furry ears.

This is probably a white-haired poodle. Although the weight in the arms is a bit overweight, judging from its appearance, the poodle should still be young.

Perhaps because it liked Shuangbei, the lion dog began to hum and bark in Shuangbei's arms, until Shuangbei stroked its hair, it squinted its eyes as if enjoying it.

Ye Yunhao, who felt that the happy scene of a man and a dog in front of him was a little weird, came over to Shuang Bei. He looked at the little guy in the other's arms and eagerly touched it with his fingers.

So soft!

Ye Yunhao felt as if he was touching cotton, but the feel was much better than cotton, so he poked even harder.

"Woof!"

The lion dog, whose head was poked several times for no apparent reason, turned around quickly and bit down.

"Wow, that was dangerous!"

Ye Yunhao looked at his intact finger and patted his chest exaggeratedly. In fact, the lion dog was just annoyed and scared him, so it turned around and bit the air next to Ye Yunhao's finger.

"Touch it gently." Shuang Bei's lips curled up slightly, and he slowly stroked the poodle, demonstrating to Ye Yunhao beside him.

Ye Yunhao touched his nose feeling a little guilty, probably because he knew that the few pokes he had just made the little guy in front of him unhappy. After hearing what Shuang Beibei said, he imitated the other's actions and stroked the puppy little by little.

Looking at the puppy that seemed to be enjoying itself, Ye Yunhao couldn't help but sigh: "Just by looking at its weight, I know it's being fed by its owner. I have to say that this owner is really an expert at feeding pigs."

As soon as Ye Yunhao finished speaking, he felt a chill coming from behind him. Looking at Shuang Bei in front of him with a teasing look in his eyes, he turned around slowly with his body stiff.

Li Nianran, dressed in white, stood not far behind Ye Yunhao. He looked at the two of them and nodded slightly, then his eyes fell on the poodle that was wagging its tail happily.

"Dun Dun."

After hearing his master's call, Dun Dun rubbed Shuang Bei's chest, turned around, jumped to the ground, and ran towards Li Nianran.

"Haha, it's well raised. The name really suits it." Ye Yunhao didn't expect that he was caught by the dog owner so quickly just for complaining about the dog's weight. He smiled awkwardly and tried to save the situation.

Li Nianran bent down and held Dun Dun in his arms skillfully. After hearing Ye Yunhao's words, his expression changed slightly.

"Dundun is still young, so he needs to eat more to grow up."

Seeing the doting expression on that usually expressionless face, Ye Yunhao almost failed to control his facial expression. He was afraid that if he ate it again, it would be fatal.

Feeling that Dun Dun in his arms was still looking at Shuang Bei dishonestly, Li Nianran slowly raised his eyes and said, "Dundun likes you very much."

Thinking of the softness in his hand before, Shuangbei smiled: "My honor."

Looking at the young man in front of him, Li Nianran thought of the sword test competition again. It was also on that day that he realized the gap between himself and the opponent. His hand that was stroking Dun Dun was trembling inexplicably.

"I wonder if Master Shuang could give me some advice."

Shuang Bei hadn't answered yet, but Ye Yunhao on the side was a little excited, and seemed to want to refuse on his behalf. However, after meeting Shuang Bei's gaze, he still didn't say anything.

Ye Yunhao knew that even if he and Li Nianran were combined, they would not be able to hurt Shuang Bei in the slightest. However, ever since he learned about the cold poison, he had always felt inexplicably afraid. However, he also knew that if he really treated the other party like a porcelain doll, it would be the greatest insult to Shuang Bei.

Shuangbei's gaze fell on the sword at Li Nianran's waist. Gu He and Li Nianran complement each other, but this one month is too short. No matter how well they match each other, it is still not enough.

"Don't be impatient."

Li Nianran's breathing stagnated. Dun Dun in his arms seemed to sense his owner's emotions. It raised its head and looked at him puzzledly, then stretched out its tongue and gently licked the back of Li Nianran's hand.

Feeling the wet warmth on the back of his hand, Li Nianran looked at Shuang Bei with some inexplicable emotions in his eyes. He thought that he was indeed a little anxious.

Being crowned as the son of a sword fairy since childhood, everyone naturally believed that Li Nianran would inherit his father's legacy. At his first birthday ceremony, he lived up to everyone's expectations and grabbed the long sword. Everyone said that he loved swords like crazy. Li Nianran admitted this. He did like the feeling of wielding a sword, but at the same time, the moment he picked up the sword, he was destined to take on certain responsibilities.

He was indeed a leader among his peers in the Wanjian Sect, but the Sword Contest taught him that there are always better people out there. Choosing Lonely Crane was the first time he had broken away from the life path arranged for him by the world. This was not a momentary gamble, as everyone wanted to fight for the first place. However, given his situation at the time, it was meaningless to continue fighting, so he simply chose Lonely Crane.

The moment he got the Lone Crane, Li Nianran felt extremely complicated. The proud son of heaven admitted defeat voluntarily. He had always been the first in the past, but now he was the third. It was not a very good experience, but at the same time, he also felt that the shackles that bound him were broken little by little. The gossip of others were just some excuses. Li Nianran knew that everything was self-inflicted, but now he finally tried to get out of the cocoon that wrapped himself.

It is not difficult to understand something, but the unwillingness in one's heart is not so easy to resolve. After Li Nianran got the Lone Crane, he practiced sword skills day and night without stopping, and a sense of impatience arose in his heart. Perhaps he was afraid of falling behind others, or perhaps he could never let it go.

"I understand." Li Nianran bowed, and soon turned and left.

Those in power are confused, but bystanders can see clearly. Shuang Bei saw the impatience in Li Nianran's heart, which also woke him up.

Ye Yunhao looked at the other person leaving. He didn't say anything, but just gripped the sword tightly and continued practicing.

Feeling Ye Yunhao's sudden energy, Shuang Bei's brows moved slightly. It seemed that Li Nianran's visit this time was not a bad thing.

Nearing noon, Ye Yunhao's body was covered with a thin layer of sweat. He retracted his sword, prepared to go back to his room to take a shower and change clothes, and then go to eat with Shuang Bei.

Ye Yunhao didn't spend too much time just washing away a thin layer of sweat. After changing into clean clothes, Ye Yunhao felt as if he was alive again.

He had just walked a few steps out of the door when he ran into Abu, who was dressed in black.

The clothes made Abu's waist look particularly thin, but Ye Yunhao couldn't help but ask, "Abu, isn't black hot?"

Abu, who was used to his young master's temper, replied with a smile: "It's not hot."

Although all members of the Wanjian Sect practice swordsmanship, there is also an elder who is good at soft whips. Abu has been practicing with that elder these days.

"Okay, I'm going to find Shuangbei to have dinner together. Why don't we go together?" Ye Yunhao said as he was about to put his arm around Abu's shoulders.

If someone else saw the two of them interacting with each other on a daily basis, they would definitely find it a little strange. They are clearly master and servant, but they look as casual as brothers.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with the two of them calling each other brothers. Abu was picked up by Ye Yunhao when he sneaked out of the villa through the dog hole. Looking at Abu who was thrown in the wild with his cheeks frozen red, Ye Yunhao picked him up with great reluctance. He was very happy to pick up a crying baby, but he was too tired after walking a few steps. After sitting there for a while, looking at Abu who was still crying, Ye Yunhao burst into tears for some reason. He found that his son had sneaked out of the villa. Ye Chen, who heard his son's cry, hurried over and saw two people, one big and one small, crying together.

Yunluo Villa is located in a relatively remote area, and it was obvious that the baby was abandoned. In the end, Ye Chen looked at his son who was holding the baby tightly and refused to let go, so he chose to adopt the baby.

Ye Chen had no talent for naming, but the baby was wrapped in flowered cloth. Fortunately, Ye Yunhao's mother was reliable. There was one less person named Ye Huabu in the world, and one more Ye Bushu.

Yunluo Villa welcomed the second young master, and Ye Yunhao also treated Ye Bushu as his own brother. He thought it was more intimate to call him Abu. Unfortunately, although he called him affectionately, Ye Bushu, who knew his life experience after he could remember things, always respectfully called him Young Master. Ye Yunhao had quarreled with him several times over the title, and facing Ye Bushu who refused to change his words, he had no choice but to compromise.

Ye Bushu took a step back and did not let Ye Yunhao hold his shoulders as he did in the past.

Ye Yunhao couldn't help but widen his eyes, then he leaned forward and muttered, "I took a shower! I'm not sweating!"

Ye Bushu was forced to stick close to Ye Yunhao. He used all his strength to tear off the dog-skin plaster on his body. He looked at Ye Yunhao who was about to fly and had to say, "Young Master, stop making trouble. I have something to tell you."

Noticing that Abu's expression seemed to show that he had something serious to discuss, Ye Yunhao coughed twice and gave up continuing to stick with him.

"I want to go back."

!

! !

!!!

Ye Yunhao was obviously very shocked, and he seemed unable to react for a while.

"Abu?"

Ye Bushu sighed slightly and continued patiently, "I'm going back to Yunluo Villa."

Ye Yunhao anxiously grabbed Abu's sleeve and said anxiously: "Aren't you going to roam the world with me? You..."

Halfway through his words, Ye Yunhao suddenly realized that he had never asked the other party for his opinion. He had never heard Abu say that he wanted to roam the world with him. It was always him who said that, and Abu was always by his side, accompanying him like when they were children.
