The early morning sunlight shone in through the screened windows, illuminating the entire room; the mornings always came so early in Vermilion.
Duanmu Shi’s eyes were unblinking as he looked at the four little ones lying side by side on the bed, his deep purple eyes filled with a strong sense of reluctance and longing.
Looking at the unwilling Duanmu Shi, Xuanyuan Mo’s eyes flashed with a touch of heartache, reaching out, he gently wrapped Duanmu Shi into his arms.
Duanmu Shi buried her entire face in Xuanyuan Mo’s arms and said sullenly, “What should I do? I haven’t even left yet and I’m starting to miss them.” Just the thought of not seeing them for many days made her heart feel like it was being cut by a knife, raw and painful.
Regarding Duanmu Shi’s mood at the moment, Xuanyuan Mo could understand it, because he couldn’t let go of his children either, especially since they were still so young.
Looking at the sky that was getting brighter a little bit, the unwillingness in Duanmu Shi’s heart was even greater.
Soon, Feng Qi’s knock sounded outside the door, “Your Highness, Miss Ye seeks an audience.” Ever since Feng Wu became pregnant and Thirteen and Fourteen gave birth, Duanmu Shi’s side has always been served by Feng Qi.
Hearing Feng Qi’s knock on the door, Duanmu Xie’s heart sank violently, what should have come eventually came, gently sighed, leaned down and kissed each of the four little ones on their foreheads.
When Duanmu Shi raised her head again, she realized that Little Han Xiao, who was sleeping beside her, was staring at her with wide-open eyes in a daze.
Looking at little Hanxiao’s clueless eyes, Duanmu Shi’s heart suddenly soured and her eyes instantly reddened, reaching out and gently picking little Hanxiao up, she softly said, “xiao’er, was it mother who woke you up?”
Little Hanxiao’s eyes flickered lightly as he sniffed, stretching out his small hand to touch the corner of Duanmu Shi’s slightly wet eyes, the look as if he was helping Duanmu Shi wipe his tears.
Looking at the understanding little cold xiao, Duanmu Shi’s heart was even more reluctant to give up, and directly put the little cold xiao whole into his arms.
Perhaps sensing Duanmu Shi’s sad emotions, or perhaps Duanmu Shi held him too tightly, Little Han xiao suddenly spoke out, “Mother.”
Hearing the soft gentle call, Duanmu Shi froze, then eyes flashed a touch of ecstasy, immediately looked at the small cold xiao joy, “xiao’er you, will talk?”
The four children were all one year old, but none of them had ever opened their mouths to speak, but their usually well-behaved and resourceful strength was not at all like a one year old, and sometimes she even suspected that they might have been able to speak long ago, but just hadn’t been opening their mouths.
“Mother.” Looking at the ecstatic Duanmu Shi, Little Han Xiao called out again, this time a little clearer than the first time.
Hearing that soft “mother” again, Duanmu Shi was still excited and excitedly held Little Hanxiao’s little bun face and kissed it twice.
Suddenly thinking of something, Duanmu Shi looked at little Han xiao with an expectant face and said, “xiao’er, will you call daddy?”
Xiao Hanxiao sniffed and looked at Xuan Yuan Mo on the side, followed by a suspiciously disgusted expression on his face.
Looking at Xiao Hanxiao’s disgusted look, Duanmu Shi’s eyelids involuntarily jumped and subconsciously glanced back at Xuanyuan Mo, only to see that he also had a disgusted expression on his face.
Duanmu Shi look at Xuanyuan Mo and then look at the small cold xiao, gradually, the two faces in the mind slowly overlap together, this father and son are really like can be, not only look exactly the same, even this cool aura is also like very much.
Looking at Duanmu Shi’s eyes that gradually became mesmerized, Xuanyuan Mo’s amber eyes flashed with a touch of jealousy and directly reached out to carry the little cold xiao xiao to his body.
Xuanyuan Mo looked at the pair of amber eyes that were exactly the same as his own, his heart flashed with a touch of strangeness, that feeling of being connected by blood, making his heart suddenly soft, turning his eyes to look at the other three little ones lying on the bed, with a face of reluctance he said, “Father and mother have something to leave for a few days, xiao’er will help father and mother to take care of them, okay?”
Seemingly understanding Xuanyuan Mo’s words, Xiao Hanxiao nodded with a serious face.
Looking at a serious face of small cold xiao, Duanmu Shi’s eyes flashed lightly, gently pinched the small cold xiao’s small face and said, “Mother and father will surely come back as soon as possible, you all have to be good.”
After struggling for a long time, Duanmu Shi reluctantly put down the little cold xiao and turned around to go out of the room with Xuanyuan Mo.
Looking at the back of Duanmu Shi and Xuanyuan Mo, Xiao Hanxiao, who has never had much expression, also showed a reluctant expression on his face, and after Duanmu Shi and Xuanyuan Mo went out of the room, Xiao Hanxiao also pulled the quilt for the other three little ones before lying down again.
Outside the Queen Mother’s Hall, Ye Bingning was already waiting, Jun Wu Xie, Situ Kong and Duanmu Xue, Huangfu Che, all of these send-offs had also arrived.
“Grandfather, Father, Father, Mother, Grand Master, Second Master, Third Master.” Seeing Huangfu Cang and the others, Duanmu Shi saluted one by one.
The crowd looked at Duanmu Shi with a face of reluctance, while Xuan Yuan Mo beside Duanmu Shi was completely ignored, for this, Xuan Yuan Mo did not care at all, and automatically stood together with Jun Wu Xie, and the opportunity to be the protagonist was completely given to Duanmu Shi.
Looking at the way everyone was surrounding Duanmu Shi and clinging to her, Ye Bingning suddenly remembered her own family, her eyes flashed with a touch of guilt, her father and mother must have been very anxious when she sneaked out like this.
Seeing Hua Ye’er in the crowd, Duanmu Shi suddenly thought of something and pulled Hua Ye’er to the side, taking out a black altar and handing it over to Hua Ye’er.
Hua Ye’er looked at the black altar in her hand and said with a puzzled expression, “This is?”
Looking at the black altar, Duanmu Shi’s eyes flashed lightly, “These are the ashes of Flower Fairy.”
Hanaye’er sniffed and her hand holding the black altar tightened.
“She died in my hands, and before she died she begged me to bring her back to the Ye family.” Duanmu Xie did not hide anything about the cause of Hua Xian’er’s death.
Hua Ye’er sniffed her eyes flashed lightly, before she disappeared, she also sent people to look for her, I did not expect her to have …
Hua Ye’er raised her eyes and looked at Duanmu Shi with a sincere face and said, “Thank you for bringing her back.” Regardless of what she had done wrong before, she was her sister, and both her mother and she wanted her to come back.
Looking at the sincere Hua Ye’er, Duanmu Shi’s deep purple eyes flashed, “You don’t blame me?”
Hua Ye’er shook her head as she sniffed, “Everyone has to bear the consequences for what they do, no one is an exception.”
Duanmushi sniffed and nodded, yes, the heavens were fair, he had long ago recorded everyone’s right and wrong.
Hua Ye’er looked at Duanmu Shi and said with a look of emotion, “After today, we’re also going back, I don’t know when we’ll be able to see each other after today’s farewell.”
Duanmu Shi sniffed and reached out to gently hug Hua Ye’er, “We will definitely meet again.”
The corners of Hua Ye’er’s lips slightly hooked as she sniffed, and she also hugged Duanmu Shi with one arm and said, “Be careful all the way.”
“So are you.”
After a long parting sentiment, Duanmu Shi looked at the crowd and said, “It’s almost time, we should go!”
The crowd all instantly fell silent at the words, all looking at Duanmu Shi with a face of reluctance.
Looking at that unwilling face, Duanmu Shi’s eyes flickered lightly, and where would she be willing to leave them, there were just some things that she had to do.
Looking at the reluctant Duanmu Shi, Hei Yan, who hadn’t opened his mouth, suddenly opened his mouth, “Don’t worry, there’s me here, I’ll be here waiting for you to come back.”
Duanmu Shi raised her eyes to look at Hei Yan when she heard this, and said with a serious face, “Thank you, Ah Yan.” With A Yan in the Vermillion Bird, she was quite relieved.
“Green Wind.” With Duanmu Shi’s call, a huge green-colored dragon instantly appeared in front of the crowd.
Seeing that green colored dragon, everyone was all excited, especially Huangfu Cang, as the emperor of the Green Dragon Kingdom, the most revered one was naturally the guardian divine beast of the Green Dragon Kingdom, the Green Dragon Divine Beast.
After spinning around in mid-air, Qingfeng prostrated himself in front of Duanmu Shi and Xuanyuan Mo.
Duanmu Shi and Xuanyuan Mo flew onto the back of the green dragon with a single leap, followed by Jun Wu Xie, Situ Kong, Royal Maple, and Feng Qi, who also flew up together.
After waiting for a while without seeing Ye Bingning come up, Duanmu Shi frowned and said, “Miss Ye, aren’t you in a hurry? Don’t come up yet.”
“Oh, oh.” Ye Bingning sniffed, then she reacted, and hurriedly followed suit and flew up.
Standing on the wide back of the green dragon, Ye Bing Ning blinked with a face of wonder, growing up, she had never sat on such a big dragon, and it was still the legendary green dragon divine beast, if her older siblings knew about it, they would definitely envy her to death.
Once again, he looked deeply at Duanmu Xue and the others before Duanmu Shi let Qingfeng fly high into the sky.
Qingfeng’s sudden takeoff caused Ye Bingning to fall backward in an unsteady position, and she subconsciously reached out and grabbed the clothes of the person next to her before she managed to stabilize herself.
Jun Wu Xie looked at the slender jade hand that was tightly grasping his sleeve, his eyes full of dislike, “Let go.” The low and cold voice poured directly into Ye Bingning’s ears along with the wind.
Looking at the disgusted Jun Wu Xie, Ye Bing Ning was aggrieved in her heart and thought, what’s the big deal, just let go.
However, Ye Bing Ning had just let go of her hand when her body was again whipped backwards by the blistering wind, and quite spinelessly, Ye Bing Ning once again grabbed onto Jun Wu Xie’s sleeve.
Jun Wu Xie’s brows furrowed violently as he turned around and glared at Ye Bing Ning with a face of anger, what was wrong with this woman, even if she couldn’t differentiate between men and women, did she still not understand human language?
Looking at the furious Jun Wu Xie, Ye Bing Ning blinked sheepishly and said, “That, the wind is too strong, I can’t stand.”
I don’t know why everyone else can stand, but not her, maybe it’s because their elven bodies are inherently lighter than their human counterparts, or maybe it’s her cultivation, which is not as high as theirs. She now had no other way but to firmly grab this big sister, because compared to Duanmu Shi and that man-looking female guard, she still preferred to grab this big sister who liked to have a cold face.
Looking at the innocent looking Ye Bing Ning, a deep sense of powerlessness arose in Jun Wu Xie’s heart and he violently patted his forehead with his hand, this woman was simply his nemesis, he must have done something unethical in his last life, that’s why the old genius had sent this woman to punish him, it had to be like this.
Ye Bing Ning looked at Jun Wu Xie who was slapping his forehead hard, her eyes flashed with a touch of doubt, is this big sister too strange, isn’t it just grabbing his sleeve? Does she need to be so self-mutilating?
Duanmu Shi watched the interaction between Jun Wu Xie and Ye Bing Ning in the back as a flash of doubt flashed across her eyes.
“What’s wrong?” Seeing that Duanmu Shi kept looking back, Xuanyuan Mo also followed her eyes and looked back.
When he saw Jun Wu Xie’s face with a vegetable color and Ye Bing Ning’s face with the aggrieved look of a little daughter-in-law, Xuanyuan Mo’s eyes flickered lightly.
Duanmushi sniffed and shook her head, “It’s nothing.”
Looking ahead into the sky in front of him, Duanmu Shi sighed lightly and said, “I wonder when I’ll be back.”
Xuanyuan Mo’s eyes flickered lightly at the words and gently swept Duanmu Shi into his arms, “Soon, we’ll definitely be back soon.”
