Ah Dai smiled and said, "Then I should congratulate you all. Brother, Xi Wen, Uncle, and the others have all co, right? How are they now? Have they returned to Tian Gang Mountain?"
Yan Shi shook his head and said, "Your wounds haven’t healed yet, how could they go back? All the teachers ca here for you! They’re very concerned about you. Not only did they co, but the Elf Clan Princess Star, Grand Elf Envoy Audi, my father, Prophet Pu Lin, Si Si, and Larthas from the Tian Jing Mage Guild and Chairman Kary from the Continental Mage Guild are all here, many of whom are friends you know. Now, the envoys from the four countries, except for Quan Yi from the Empire of Sunset City who left with his entourage in dismay, have all stayed in the Holy See to discuss dealing with the Dark Forces with the Pope."
Hearing that Prophet Pu Lin was also here, Ah Dai was greatly excited, "Has the Prophet awakened? That’s great news! I hope his health is no longer in serious condition."
Yan Shi laughed, "You shouldn’t call him old man, otherwise he’ll get angry, haha. The Prophet looks as if he’s only a few years older than I am now. To be honest, brother, our entire Pu Yan Clan has you to thank! If you hadn’t pulled the Prophet back from the brink of death, we might have lost our highest spiritual pillar. Prophet Pu Lin is incredibly important to us. Ah Dai, on behalf of our clan, I thank you." With that, Yan Shi stood up and gave Ah Dai a deep, respectful bow. Ah Dai, still finding it difficult to move, said anxiously, "Big brother, you don’t have to do this. Saving the Prophet was my duty. If not for the guidance and the gift of Dragon’s Blood from the Prophet, I wouldn’t be who I am today, nor would I have the ability to save the Prophet. It’s a good cause bringing good results; I have no rit here."
Yan Shi said earnestly, "Brother, no need to stand on ceremony with . No matter what, few people could risk their own lives to save soone else with their blood like you did. You saved the Prophet’s life, and in the future, should you ever face difficulties, our Pu Yan Clan will support you with all our might. Frankly, your influence is enormous. This ti, other than the Empire of Sunset City, nearly everyone from the other countries ca for your and Xuan Yue’s wedding. If you hadn’t arrived at the scene in ti that day, Teacher Xi Wen might have led everyone to stop the wedding. Ah Dai, it seems like the Prophet was right; you truly are the Savior of the continent. You possess an indescribable charisma that attracts everyone who spends ti with you. Regardless of the reason, everyone becos your friend."
Ah Dai scratched his head and said, "This ti really was troubleso for everyone. It was my fault. I won’t escape anymore in the future. Ah! Brother, stop talking about all the ti, how are you and Sister Zhuo Yun doing?"
Yan Shi blushed and said, "We’re doing well. Yun Er is a good girl. Being with her, I feel like I’ve returned to those happy days of the past. I’ve really learned my lesson this ti, no matter what, I will never part with her again. I will never let her co to any harm. I want to protect her with my life, just like Ballon protects his wife Luo Shui, even at the cost of my life if necessary." Yan Shi spoke with unyielding determination, his eyes filled with loving radiance.
Ah Dai chuckled and said, "Big brother, your feelings for Sister Zhuo Yun run deep! What perfect timing to confess; look, Sister Zhuo Yun has been moved to tears."
Yan Shi was shocked and quickly turned to look towards the door. Sure enough, Zhuo Yun stood quietly at the entrance, gazing at him affectionately, tears streaming down her face, her delicate body trembling slightly.
Yan Shi blushed, a little embarrassed, and said, "Yun, you, you’re here. I was so engrossed in talking to Brother Ah Dai that I didn’t hear you co in."
Zhuo Yun did not answer; she fluttered her wings and threw herself at Yan Shi with great force. Yan Shi was startled, instinctively opened his arms, and caught Zhuo Yun snugly. Zhuo Yun burst into tears in Yan Shi’s embrace, holding his neck tightly. Yan Shi cast a reproachful glance at Ah Dai, seeming to bla him for not notifying him sooner about Zhuo Yun’s arrival. He gently patted her back and said, "There, there, don’t cry. Brother Ah Dai will laugh at us."
Zhuo Yun slowly raised her head, sobbing, "Yan Shi, I, I..."
Yan Shi said gently, "No need to say anything, as long as you understand my heart. What I said earlier was from the bottom of my heart, no matter when, I will always be by your side to protect you."
Ah Dai coughed a couple of tis and laughed, "I say, big brother, big sister-in-law, being affectionate in front of an injured person, aren’t you afraid it will provoke my wounds to relapse?"
Zhuo Yun wiped the tears from her face and playfully scolded, "Ah Dai, when did you beco so mischievous? This isn’t like the old you at all! Dare to tease your sister, I’ll have to go to Yue Yue and tell on you." Hearing Zhuo Yun’s words, Ah Dai was taken aback. Yes! How did he suddenly beco like this? Ever since reaching the realm of his master ancestor, the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang, his mind seed extraordinarily clear and he was no longer the taciturn Ah Dai of the past. Having been mired in grief before, he hadn’t given it much thought. Now that the matter of Xuan Yue’s marriage was finally resolved, his heart felt much lighter, and the words just ca out naturally. Scratching his head, he said, "Sister, I also don’t know why I’ve beco a bit smarter."
