Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

Chapter 523 Celebrating the New Year in the Black Corner Territory

Just when Zi Jing picked up Yun Xiao and turned around to go back, she heard Yun Xiao shouting happily, which made Zi Jing feel very sad.

Xiaoxiao and Brother Xiao Yan had just met each other, but Brother Xiao Yan died unexpectedly, and Xiaoxiao still didn't know about it.

As for the father Yun Xiao was talking about, Zi Jing didn't even look at it and took it for granted that she was talking about the statue.

"Xiaoxiao." Zijin was filled with grief, but she didn't know what to say. She could only forcefully smile and say: "Xiaoxiao, it's time for us to go back. Your mother is still waiting for us."

"Dad also wants to go back together!"

Zi Jing was slightly stunned when she heard this sentence that didn't sound like she was speaking to him, and the corners of her mouth twitched.

How do you bring such a big statue back?
However, at this moment, Yun Xiao in his arms shouted again.

"Dad! Xiaoxiao is here! Ah! Sister Ziyan is here too!"

Eh?
This sounds like meeting a real person.
Zi Jing suddenly felt something was wrong and turned his head suddenly. What he saw was Xiao Yan walking quickly like this, and his expression suddenly became dull.

Brother Xiao Yan? !

"Daddy!"

Yun Xiao broke away from Zi Jing's arms and ran happily towards Xiao Yan. Zi Yan, who was on Xiao Yan's shoulders, turned over and jumped down, hugging Yun Xiao who was running towards Xiao Yan.

"Xiaoxiao! Long time no see!"

"Sister Ziyan!"

Blocked by Zi Yan, Yun Xiao not only didn't get angry, but waved her arms happily. Zi Yan also looked at this little girl she hadn't seen for a year with curiosity.

At this time, Xiao Yan came over, stood behind Zi Yan and bent down slightly, taking Yun Xiao from Zi Yan's hand into his arms. Yun Xiao put his arms around Xiao Yan's neck, with a happy smile on his face.

"Dad, Xiaoxiao misses you so much."

"Well, daddy also misses Xiaoxiao very much."

Xiao Yan rubbed Yun Xiao's pink face affectionately, and immediately looked at the approaching Bauhinia with a look of astonishment on his face.

"Zijing, long time no see."

"Brother Xiao Yan, aren't you already?"

Zijin's eyes were filled with disbelief, and Xiao Yan smiled slightly.

"Well, it's a long story. I encountered a lot of things."

After receiving Xiao Yan's response, Zijin gradually came back to her senses, and accepted the fact that Xiao Yan was still alive. She felt excited in her heart, and then gradually calmed down, showing a happy smile.

As long as you can stay alive, that's the best. As for the process, it doesn't matter.

"Zijing, why did you and Xiaoxiao come to the Black Angle Territory?"

Xiao Yan asked, Zi Jing was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted and joy appeared on his face.

"Brother Xiao Yan, just in time! Everyone has come to the Black Corner Territory to celebrate the New Year. I was just about to take Xiaoxiao back. You should go too. Everyone will be very happy!"

Come to the Black Corner Territory to celebrate the New Year?
Xiao Yan suddenly paused. He thought Mei'er and the others had all gone back, but instead, others came over.

This is fine, it just lets everyone know that he is still alive.

Suddenly Xiao Yan thought of something. He glanced at Yun Xiao in his arms and then at Cai Lin behind him. His face couldn't help but look a little ugly. He lowered his head and asked Zi Jing in a deep voice.

"Tell me, who of everyone is here?"

"Everyone, Uncle Xiao Zhan, Sister Xiao Ling, Sister Xiao Li, my mother, and many, many more people, Aunt Yun Yun is here too."

"."

Hearing this, Xiao Yan's already ugly face became even uglier.

Although he will never shirk his responsibilities, he also knows that he will have to face it sooner or later. Isn't this a bit too soon?He wasn't even mentally prepared.

(This is God’s punishment for you, just take it well.)
The little medical fairy chuckled and teased in his heart, causing Xiao Yan to be completely silent.

Then he gritted his teeth and looked at Zijin.

"Then let's go and give Father and the others a surprise. I also happen to have something important to say."

"Oh"

Zijin looked at Xiao Yan's expression as if he was facing a formidable enemy. Although he didn't know why, he still nodded and led Xiao Yan and the others in one direction.

On the road, Cailin walked beside Xiao Yan, glanced at Yun Xiao in Xiao Yan's arms, and looked at Xiao Yan's faint inquiry.

"So, what are you going to tell her?"

"Tell the truth and I won't hide anything." Xiao Yan responded softly, without any hesitation, and looked at Cai Lin seriously, "I will shoulder my responsibilities and will never run away."

"."

Cai Lin narrowed her eyes slightly, and her golden snake pupils flickered slightly.

She originally thought that if Xiao Yan couldn't open his mouth, she would have to tell Yun Yun herself.

But seeing how determined Xiao Yan was, I guess it wasn't necessary.Cai Lin raised a slight smile on her lips and followed Xiao Yan silently.

There were more than a dozen tables of people sitting in the courtyard of the Hell Headquarters. The courtyard was hung with lanterns and the tables were filled with delicious dishes. Logically speaking, the atmosphere should be festive.

However, the actual situation was a bit boring and panicky, with a deep haze hanging over the festive atmosphere.

At the main table, Xiao Zhan's face was full of sadness, and he drank a glass of strong wine, his eyes filled with pain.

I lost my wife in middle age and my son in my later years. What sins have I committed in my life that God wants to punish me like this?
"Sect Master Yun, I'm sorry." Xiao Zhan looked at Yun Yun sitting across the table, his eyes full of guilt, "That brat of mine has always been so troublesome. I have made you feel wronged for two years. We finally got to know each other, and this kid left forever."

With that said, Xiao Zhan poured another glass of wine and poured it down his throat without looking at it.

I received a letter from Xiao Ling earlier, saying that Xiao Yan had recognized Yun Yun and his mother. I thought that during the Chinese New Year this year, I would see my son bring his unmarried daughter-in-law home to see me, but now my daughter-in-law He and his granddaughter are back, but his son will never come back.

"Dad, drink less."

Xiao Ling, who was sitting next to Xiao Zhan, also had deep discomfort in his eyes. As soon as he opened his mouth to comfort him, Yun Shan, who was sitting next to Yun Yun, stopped him.

"Let your father drink it. The pain of losing a child cannot be erased by others with just a few words."

"."

Xiao Ling was silent and did not nod, but he no longer stopped him. Xiao Li's eyes were full of grief, but he still tried his best to show his composure, looking at Yun Yun and speaking slowly.

"Yun Yun, even if Xiao Yan is gone, you and Xiaoxiao are still members of the Xiao family. If you have any trouble in the future, just ask and we will try our best to help you."

"Thank you, second sister."

Yun Yun's eyes were also filled with pain, but she still showed a forced smile.

Zi Yun on the other side said nothing, just drank wine silently, not even in the mood to eat the meat on the table.

Not only this table, but other tables were also shrouded in a sad atmosphere, and among them, the table of the Great Elder was the worst.

His most beloved granddaughter Xiao Yu has been missing for a whole year. Until now, there is no news and it is not known whether she is alive or dead.

He really couldn't figure it out, why did the Soul Palace want to arrest his granddaughter?Where did Xiao Yu provoke them?

Xiao Mei and Xiao Ning were also grabbing their chopsticks with depressed expressions at this time. Even Xiao Mei didn't even care about Qing Lin's attitude this year. It can be seen how depressed she was at this time. You know, when she saw Qing Lin in previous years I wish I couldn't even let go of sleep.

Yaoyue looked at her sister's extremely hurt eyes. Because Yaoye ran away from home privately and stayed in the Black Corner Territory for a whole year, she couldn't say some of the reprimands her great-grandfather asked her to bring.

Hu Jia and other Xiao Yan's classmates were also unhappy. They felt deeply guilty for Xiao Yan's death. If they hadn't proposed to go to the inner courtyard to practice, Xiao Yan might not have died.

Although they knew that it was not their fault, they still couldn't get over the hurdle in their hearts. They felt as if they had killed Xiao Yan with their own hands.

Ya Fei looked at the bleak atmosphere in the field and the equally listless Hai Bodong beside her, and sighed deeply helplessly.

Imagine that in the past, Chinese New Year has always been the most festive day for the Xiao family. How could it have ever been like this?

At the main table, while Yun Yun was filled with grief, she was also thinking about another thing.

That is, she has not told Xiaoxiao about Xiao Yan's death until now. The child finally recognized his father. After Xiao Yan left, he asked her every day when her father would come back and how she was going to explain the truth to her.
"Xiao Yan is not dead, and neither is Her Majesty the Queen! I believe they are definitely still alive!" Yue Mei put down the wine glass, with wine stains remaining on the corners of her mouth, and growled angrily: "We have always expected Her Majesty the Queen to lead her forever. As for the Snake Tribe, how could Her Majesty the Queen die like this?!"

Everyone knew that Yue Mei's words were just drunken remarks made by someone unwilling to accept the facts. No one took them seriously, but no one refuted them.

They all hope that Yue Mei's words are true, but the reality is so real and so painful.

Xiao Ling looked at Yun Yun and asked softly.

"Yunyun, where is Xiaoxiao?"

Yun Yun didn't speak, Zi Yun answered for her.

"I just ran out to play, don't worry, my son is following me."

At this moment, Xiaoxiao's excited voice came from outside the hospital.

"Mom! Daddy and I are back!"

Yun Yun, who heard the sound, looked at the door of the courtyard, her eyes still filled with sadness, and she didn't react for a moment.

Xiaoxiao is back, how about her father? !

Yun Yun's pupils suddenly tightened, and she stood up suddenly. Others also reacted, and Xiao Zhan looked at the courtyard door with trembling eyes.

Then, with everyone watching, Zijing walked into the yard first, followed by Zi Yan, then Xiao Yan, who was holding Yun Xiao, and Cai Lin who followed him.

"Yan'er!"

Sisters Xiao Zhan and Xiao Ling were the first to come to their senses. In the blink of an eye, they came to Xiao Yan and reached out to touch Xiao Yan's body to make sure that they were not dreaming. Xiao Zhan burst into tears and looked at it excitedly. Xiao Yan.

"Yan'er. It's really you. You're still alive."

Looking at Xiao Zhan who seemed to be several years older in front of him, with a lot of wrinkles on his white temples, Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel sore in his eyes, and then he held back tears and smiled.

"Father, I'm back."

"I'm sorry for making you worry." (End of Chapter)
