Chapter 295: Unspoken Thoughts
Yun Xuanmo lowered his eyes, looked at the little one in his arms with a guilty expression, and said angrily, "You are not obedient."
Yuntang pouted and said defensively, "I'm full."
This heartwarming scene made the others want to laugh, but they were afraid that Xiao Tang'er would be unhappy, so they had to hold it back. In the end, they decided that it would be better not to be an eyesore here.
"Senior Brother Nine is back. I have to go out for a walk too." Senior Brother Ten Yun Xuanyang left first.
"I need to draw some more talismans, for fear they may not be enough." Eighth Senior Brother Lan Jue walked away leisurely, fanning himself.
"I'll take the talismans I drew and distribute them to everyone." Twelfth Senior Brother Han Wenyi said with a smile.
"I'll accompany you." Senior Brother Eleven Wang Kun said immediately.
The senior brothers had all left, but Yun Xuanmo was still standing at the door of the tent holding Yun Tang, the two of them staring at each other.
Finally, Yun Tang blushed and said awkwardly: "Ninth Senior Brother, put me down, I will walk by myself."
However, Yun Xuanmo strode into the tent, put her down on the camp bed, and then sat down at the table nearby.
Yun Xuanmo turned his head to look at the sand pot simmering on the small stove next to him, poured out a bowl of hot brown sugar ginger soup, and gently stirred the hot steam with a spoon.
"Open your mouth."
"what."
Looking at the ginger soup being fed to him, Yuntang opened his mouth obediently, just like when he was fed as a child, and accepted the food obediently.
Yun Xuanmo looked at her well-behaved, cute and pretty appearance, and couldn't help but soften his brows and a smile flowed in his eyes.
After feeding him half a bowl of ginger soup, Yuntang shook his head and refused to eat.
Yun Xuanmo drank the remaining half bowl in one gulp, put the empty bowl on the table, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the corners of her mouth. Then he said, "If you feel uncomfortable, please tell me. Don't force yourself."
Yun Tang quickly shook his head and said, "No, I just felt a little weak after using that move. I will recover after some rest."
Thinking of the bowl of ginger soup, she quickly explained: "I wasn't cold, I was just too tired at the time."
While she was speaking, Yun Xuanmo's fingers held her wrist. After making sure that she had no hidden injuries and had not caught a cold, Yun Xuanmo felt relieved and held her small hand in his big palm.
"Once the eldest, second, fifth, and seventh brothers come back, we can go back to the capital. We can have a good rest for a few days and recover from the hard work along the way."
None of them mentioned the Fallen Angel again. They only talked about how the New Year in the capital was over, the weather was getting warmer in the spring, and they hadn't had a good look at the scenery outside the city yet.
Speaking of the scenery outside the city, Yun Xuanmo suddenly remembered something and said with a smile:
"This time when we go back, let's go to the hot spring resort. Third Senior Brother has already given you a large hot spring resort, but you haven't even been there once."
Yun Tang nodded, and suddenly tears welled up in her eyes, which scared Yun Xuanmo, and he quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Yuntang shook her head, but her tears kept flowing.
Seeing her like this, Yun Xuanmo felt as if his heart was being pierced by needles, with a sour and sharp pain. He opened his mouth to say something to comfort her, and suddenly understood something.
He walked over to the bed and sat down, holding the now vulnerable person in his arms, and whispered, "It's all over. We are all fine and will never be separated again."
"Yeah." Yun Tang responded with a choked voice, but she nestled in Senior Brother Nine's arms and sobbed, her tears soon soaking his clothes.
Yun Xuanmo didn't say anything more. He just held her silently and let her calm down in his arms.
It was getting dark outside.
The door curtain of the tent was propped up and not lowered. Originally, there was a charcoal basin and a small stove burning in the tent, so it was warm and not dim. But as the sky brightened outside, it became dark inside.
When Yun Tang finally looked up, their sight was only on each other, and the surroundings were plunged into darkness.
Yun Xuanmo smiled slightly and said in a gentle tone: "I'll go get a basin of hot water and wipe my face. I've cried like a cat."
Yuntang pouted but nodded obediently.
Soon, Yun Xuanmo brought a basin of hot water and lit the lights in the tent.
Yuntang quickly washed her face and took out a small peach blossom mirror to look at herself. Her eyes were red, so she took out a cold towel and covered them with it.
Yun Xuanmo also washed his face, walked over to look at her, but couldn't tell what he was thinking.
The original plan was to let her follow her master back to the capital first, while he would stay and lead the Qinglong Guard to deal with the aftermath of the demon disaster in the western border before returning.
But seeing her crying so sadly, he almost lost his life in the past two years because he didn't go back, she must be having a hard time.
He had been full of fighting spirit to save him, but he suddenly became listless after killing the Fallen Angel.
I'm afraid it's not just the result of exhausting my magic power, but also because all the burdens in my heart were cleared at once and the taut strings suddenly broke.
The crying just now was to vent the remaining emotions. She had cried before in the Yunshang Observation Room and in Qingfeng Palace, but she was obviously still suppressing some thoughts that she didn't want to say.
Hopefully, this is the last time.
From now on, Tangtang can be happy and carefree, just like when she was a child.
And he also needs to work harder on his cultivation and not let Tangtang feel so desperate, sad, helpless and lonely again. She has endured too much for him.
Finally, Yun Xuanmo made a decision: "Let's go back to the capital first after the brothers come back."
The unfinished business in the Western Territory will be handed over to the senior brothers. Tangtang needs to go back and recover.
"Yeah." Yuntang took away the cold handkerchief and showed a bright smile.
It was not even dinner time yet, but Duke Ping had already sent someone to deliver the message that a banquet would be held in the evening to thank Qingfeng for his performance.
During her free time while waiting, Yuntang continued to carve protective jade pendants for the guards. She carved all of them in the shape of a tiger head, which looked majestic and yet cute.
Yun Xuanmo sat aside and drew talismans.
Although everything went smoothly on this trip, they also consumed a lot of Five Thunder Talismans. He could not continue to stay in the Western Territory to handle matters, and he had to leave more Five Thunder Talismans for the Azure Dragon Guards.
The Qinglong Guards did not know the Southern School of Thunder Method, but he later learned it from Yuntang and used it on the spot. Therefore, the Five Thunder Talisman was a convenient weapon for the Qinglong Guards.
Nearly another hour passed, and it was already dark outside. A bonfire was burning in the camp, and the aroma of roasted lamb filled the air, which could be smelled even in the tent.
Soon after, they heard lively voices outside the tent. Yun Tang looked up and said with a smile, "Seventh Senior Brother is back!"
Then two women walked into the tent door. They were Yun Xuanyu and Han Wenyi who were talking.
"Why are you two still staying in the tent? It's very lively outside." Yun Xuanyu looked at the quiet Ninth Junior Brother and the well-behaved Xiao Tang'er with a bright smile.
Yuntang quickly put away the things in his hands and stood up.
Seeing that she was still wrapped in a cloak in the tent, Yun Xuanyu raised her eyebrows in surprise. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly remembered the news she had received before. She hurried over and looked Yun Tang up and down.
"Is Xiao Tang'er injured?"
