Chapter 231 Return
"Well, sister, don't worry, we will all be fine." Su Wenying said, knowing that only if he was well could he protect his sister. In this world full of unknowns, they were each other's most solid support.
After that, they all went back to find places to practice. Each of them carried their own goals and determination, and their figures gradually disappeared in their chosen places of practice.
Su Siyi returned to her study and went straight into her practice room to begin her training. The room was filled with rich spiritual energy, like a thin mist, surrounding her. She closed her eyes, calmed her mind, and immersed herself in the world of practice, feeling the spiritual energy flowing and nourishing within her body.
Nangong Jingming saw that everyone was practicing diligently, so he naturally didn't slack off. He knew that only by becoming stronger could he be qualified to stand by her side and protect her from any harm. He went to his own practice place and began to practice diligently. Every movement was full of power, and every breath resonated with the surrounding spiritual energy.
Everyone was busy practicing, and the white bird felt a bit bored staying in the house. It watched as its owner entered the practice room, and the room became quiet and deserted. It flapped its wings a few times and decided to go out for a walk. It flew directly into the villa's courtyard, where there was an ancient vine tree. The white bird landed lightly on the vine.
"Why did you come out? Why aren't you staying with your master?" the old vine asked the white bird, somewhat puzzled. It swayed its vine slightly, as if greeting the bird. Its tone was tinged with envy. It was now trapped in the yard, unable to freely accompany its master like the white bird.
It looked at the white bird with a hint of longing in its eyes. Alas, it couldn't leave here yet. It needed to grow up a little more. By then, perhaps it could also be like the white bird, guarding its master at all times.
"Master, I'm going to practice. I came to chat with you!" The white bird flapped its wings and landed on a thick vine of the ancient vine, saying in a clear voice. Its small body was extremely light, and in the sunlight, its feathers shimmered with a soft luster, like a smart elf.
"Master, you've worked so hard!" The ancient vine shook its branches slightly, making a rustling sound, as if it was sighing with emotion.
It still remembered that when its master first obtained the cultivation method, he was not very serious about it, often tossing it aside as if it were just an insignificant thing. But now, the master seemed like a completely different person, full of enthusiasm for cultivation, so active that it was a little surprised.
"Alas, this world will soon have an explosion of spiritual energy. By then, all kinds of strange beasts and demonic beasts will appear. If the master doesn't work hard to become stronger, how can he protect himself?" The white bird tilted its little head, a hint of worry in its eyes.
It knew what a chaotic and dangerous world that would be. Powerful alien beasts and demon beasts would bring endless disasters. If the master did not have enough strength, he would be in danger.
"Ah, there's going to be a massive spiritual energy explosion here. Isn't that an opportunity?" The ancient vine wasn't worried at all; instead, there was a hint of excitement in its tone. In its view, while this was a crisis, it was also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The spiritual energy explosion meant more energy, and for cultivators, it was a perfect opportunity to improve their strength, like opening a treasure trove filled with treasures.
"Opportunity is opportunity, but it is also a very dangerous thing. So, master, they are all very worried and are thinking about improving their abilities!" said the white bird, its eyes becoming serious.
It knows that this kind of danger cannot be dealt with easily, and if it is not careful, it may be doomed. That is why the master practices so hard, hoping to have enough strength to protect himself and those around him before the crisis comes.
"Well, I have to work hard to grow up, so that I can protect my master," the old vine said firmly, its branches trembling slightly, as if to cheer itself up. It longed to be a helper to its master, to stand up in times of danger, like a loyal guard.
"Yes, you must grow up quickly. You're quite strong, but it's not good that you can't follow your master. So you must grow up quickly and leave the land." The white bird said expectantly. It looked at the ancient vine, its eyes gleaming with hope. It knew that the ancient vine had great potential. If it could break through its own limitations, it would surely become a powerful helper to its master.
"Well, I will definitely grow up quickly and be able to stay by my master's side as soon as possible." Gu Teng also wanted to be able to accompany his master as soon as possible. He imagined the scene of exploring the world with his master. Not only could he protect his master, but he could also see different parts of the world. That must be a wonderful experience. He could feel the pull of the outside world, as if an invisible force was calling him.
"Then you have to work harder and absorb more energy!" said the white bird encouragingly, flapping its wings as if cheering for the ancient vine.
"Well, I'm going to absorb energy. Have fun on your own!" The ancient vine said, and then ignored the white bird. It stretched its vines even wider, like countless tentacles, diligently absorbing energy from the surrounding environment. It was completely focused, entering a state of ecstasy, and the air around it seemed to fluctuate slightly with its actions.
The next morning, just as the sun rose, a faint paleness appeared on the horizon. Nangong Jingming had already made all the necessary arrangements and had someone fly a helicopter to City B.
After flying for a while, they arrived behind Nangong Jingming's villa in City B. The plane's door slowly opened and Su Siyi couldn't wait to get off the plane.
As soon as she got off the plane, she saw her grandparents, parents, who were standing not far away to greet her, their eyes full of anticipation and longing.
"Grandpa, grandma, dad, mom, why are you all here?" Su Siyi was surprised and happy, her eyes slightly red, and she quickened her pace and ran towards them.
"You've been away for so long, of course I miss you!" Ji Mei held Su Siyi's hand lovingly, her eyes full of pity.
She looked at Su Siyi carefully, from her hair to her toes, not missing any details. Seeing that Su Siyi was fine, her heart finally settled down and a relieved smile appeared on her face.
"I miss you too," Su Siyi said sweetly, looking at them. Her face was filled with a happy smile, like a blooming flower. At this moment, she felt the warmth of home, and the feeling of being surrounded by her loved ones made her feel extremely at ease.
"Miss us! Why don't you come back soon?" Han Shuqiong looked helplessly at her daughter, whom she had just met. Although there was a hint of blame in her tone, it was more of a deep longing. Tears shone in her eyes, the emotion of missing her daughter for so long.
"Mom, I really have something to do, so don't be angry. Be careful when you get older, or dad will dislike you." Su Siyi immediately coaxed her mother. She blinked her eyes mischievously, trying to ease the somewhat sad atmosphere.
"Don't talk nonsense. I don't mind my wife no matter what she does. You can't drag me into this." Su Shiqian said immediately. He smiled and put his arm around his wife's shoulders, his eyes full of love. He didn't want to be "framed" by his daughter and cause his wife to misunderstand him.
"Dad, aren't you reacting too quickly?" Su Wenying shook his head speechlessly. He was already accustomed to this kind of sweet interaction between his parents. Over the years, he had eaten too much of his parents' "dog food", but in his heart he was still happy to see his parents so loving.
"Haha, it seems that you have a husband who loves you very much, Mom." Su Siyi said with a smile. She looked at her parents' loving appearance, her heart full of envy and blessings. This kind of family warmth and happiness made her cherish her relatives even more.
"You little girl, you're teasing me, your mother!" Han Shuqiong looked at her quirky daughter and shook her head helplessly, but a doting smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. Her eyes were full of love for her daughter, and that smile was filled with the tenderness and tolerance of a mother.
"Alright, the kids must be tired after such a long flight. Let's go in first!" Su Sheng's deep voice echoed through the crowd. He looked at each child lovingly, his eyes revealing concern. Time had left its mark on his face, but the warmth within his dignity remained undiminished.
"Yes, let's go. Let's go back first and have a good chat." Su Shiqian smiled, his smile showing his fatigue, but more of the joy of returning home. He held his wife tightly and walked forward with a firm and brisk pace.
Everyone gradually arrived at Nangong Jingming's extravagant villa. Ye Xuexin and the others, well-trained, automatically returned to their assigned posts, just as they usually did on a mission. Soon, only the Su family and Nangong Jingming were left in the living room, and the atmosphere was warm yet somewhat solemn.
"Siyi, come back with us today!" Su Sheng looked at Su Siyi, his eyes as firm as a rock, unquestionable. In his eyes was a deep longing for his granddaughter, as well as a majesty that could not be refused.
"Grandpa, are you sure you want to go back today?" Su Siyi frowned slightly, a hint of worry flashed in her eyes. She bit her lip and asked with some concern.
"Well, let's go back. We've almost finished investigating. It's time to close the net!" Su Sheng's eyes became sharp, like an eagle staring at its prey. There was a fierceness in his eyes. He would never let anyone who dared to bully the Su family go easily. He would make those people pay the price.
