Chapter 451
Li Yi stood in the yard and looked at the venomous insects ruefully.
“He has just come back to me, but now he’s leaving,” he mumbled sullenly.
Li Shuang noticed his depression and consoled, “Young Master, after you recuperate, you can go to the Cloud Continent and visit him. He’s a Golden Core, and I guess it doesn’t take him long to advance to Nascent Soul. You have plenty of time to spend with him.”
“You are right. Why, there seem to be fewer insects in the yard,” said Li Yi.
“Xiaodong’s pheasant ate a lot,” Li Shuang said with a smile.
“Oh, I see.” Li Yi raised the insects in the yard to pass the time, and they were not his contracted beasts, so he didn’t feel angry. “That pheasant looks promising.”
“Young Master, your breathing is not steady. I think you should go into seclusion,” said Li Shuang.
Li Yi nodded and said, “Okay.”
Looking at the pills on his palm, he smiled. His son was different from other people’s sons. Xu Muan gave him a dozen bottles of precious pills. Other people couldn’t afford that.
“Young Master, Mr. Xu has been worried about you,” said Li Shuang.
Li Yi smiled. Xu Lingfeng had had a hard time these years. Now that their son had been found, he should treat Xu Lingfeng better.
…
Xu Lingfeng entered the weapon refinery room in depression. After Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan left, Li Yi went into seclusion. Xu Lingfeng was alone again.
“Lingfeng, you look sad. What’s wrong?” asked Xu Lian.
Xu Lingfeng forced a smile and said, “I’m fine.”
He pulled a long face. A few days ago, he had a wife, a son, and a grandson, and he was at the peak of his life, but now he was wretched
He had thought Li Yi would forgive him and get back to him after their son was found. To his surprise, he was driven away again. He felt depressed.
“I heard that you’ve found your son,” said Xu Lian in excitement.
Xu Lingfeng was cheered up. “Yes.”
Xu Lian said sulkily, “Why didn’t you bring him back?”
“He doesn’t want to come back.”
Xu Lian frowned and said, “He doesn’t want to come back? How come? Is it a mistake?”
Xu Lingfeng shook his head and said earnestly, “No. Yi has confirmed it.”
The Xu family had been looking for Xu Lingfeng’s son for a long time. Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan didn’t know that the family hadn’t ever given up looking for Xu Muan. They had brought back at least dozens of men that they thought might be Xu Muan.
In the beginning, Li Yi was hopeful, but none of them was his son. Some of them were liars, so Li Yi started to lose hope.
“Since Yi says Xu Muan is your son, he should be. Have you tested him? You can’t be reckless,” said Xu Lian with a frown.
“Yi has tested it,” said Xu Lingfeng.
“That should be true. Have you tested it?” asked Xu Lian.
Xu Lingfeng shook his head and said, “No.”
“Although Li Yi has tested it, you should have a test for safety’s sake,” said Xu Lian.
Xu Lingfeng shook his head and said indifferently, “I trust Yi.”
Xu Lian looked at Xu Lingfeng and shook his head helplessly. “Okay.”
Xu Lingfeng lowered his head. The people that they brought back coveted the wealth of the Xu family. Xiao Jinting was wealthy, and Xu Lingfeng felt he and Li Yi were taking advantage of Xiao Jinting and Xu Muan.
“I heard that Xu Muan is a Golden Core,” said Xu Lian.
Xu Lingfeng nodded and said, “Yes. He’s lucky. He took the Spirit Cleansing Pill and became a single root. He reached the advanced level of Golden Core at such a young age. He has made bigger progress than me, but it’s a pity that he married Xiao Jinting.
Xu Lingfeng felt proud of Xu Muan, who was promising.
However, he felt depressed at the mention of Xiao Jinting. His subordinate gave Xu Muan to a Xu family, but it was a pity that Xu Muan married Xiao Jinting. Although Xu Lingfeng had three grandchildren, all of them were surnamed Xiao.
“What’s wrong with that? Xiao Jinting is a Nascent Soul and the First Elder of the Green Cloud Immortal Sect. Why do you detest such an excellent man?” said Xu Lian.
Xu Lingfeng snorted softly and said indifferently, “He’s good, but not good enough.” Xu Muan had told him that Xiao Jinting had concubines. Although Xu Muan later said that was a joke, Xu Lingfeng felt Xiao Jinting was an unfaithful man.
“Xu Muan? It sounds familiar. Did you kidnap him before?” Xu Lian remembered that and said.
Xu Lingfeng was speechless. Couldn’t Xu Lian stop mentioning this? It was embarrassing.
