Zhuo Yun broke free from Yan Shi’s embrace and flew to Ah Dai’s bedside, asking with concern, "I ca to see if you’ve woken up. How are you? Is your injury getting better?"
Ah Dai nodded and said, "I’m fine. Big sister, I don’t need anyone here now. You and big brother should leave, I want to start ditating, or else, Yan Shi big brother might bla for being a third wheel. Once I’m better, I’ll imdiately go look for Yue Yue to admit my mistake and ask for her forgiveness."
Zhuo Yun blushed and said, "You, use your sweet talk more on Yue Yue. After Ba Bu Yi’s parents died, she seed really upset. She’s been taking care of you without eating or drinking these past few days, and it makes my heart ache to see. Yue Yue is a good girl, you should cherish her."
Hearing Zhuo Yun ntion Xuan Yue’s sorrow, Ah Dai felt a pang in his heart and thought for a mont, then said, "Big brother, I’ll start cultivating now, then go find Yue Yue. Please let everyone know not to disturb ."
Yan Shi nodded, taking Zhuo Yun’s small hand, and said, "You concentrate on your cultivation, big brother will stand guard outside. If anything happens, just call ."
At the Holy Church, in the ho of Red Robe Priest Xuan Ye.
After half a day of ditation and eating a little, Xuan Yue felt much better. Her parents were at ho, and the atmosphere was unusually heavy. Changing into her Red Bishop’s Robes, Xuan Yue walked out of the room. She saw Xuan Ye sitting in a chair lost in thought, while her mother, Nasha, looked at him with worry.
"Dad, what’s wrong?" Xuan Yue walked up to Xuan Ye and asked.
Xuan Ye looked up at his daughter, a trace of sadness in his eyes, "I never thought your uncle Ballon would just die like that. Ah—it’s truly the workings of fate!"
Nasha held her husband’s hand and said, "Ye, don’t overthink it. Everything has already happened and passed. Why must you still be sad?"
Xuan Ye clenched his wife’s hand and said, "Seeing them die like that, I’m really saddened. Ballon was my childhood friend, among our peers in the church, our relationship was the best. But, Luo Shui turned out to be a spy for the Dark Forces, and it was because of her that the church lost so many people, even father-in-law... Honestly, I don’t know whether to hate them or pity them."
Xuan Yue lowered her head and said, "Dad, Uncle Ballon and his family are already dead. The dead hold no grudges, all past grievances should vanish. Mom is right, there’s no need to think too much about it."
Upon hearing Xuan Ye ntion her father, Nasha’s eyes couldn’t help but redden, "All of this is arranged by the Sky God! It’s sothing beyond our control."
Xuan Ye sighed, looking at his daughter, "Yue Yue, tell , what are you planning now? Ah Dai has co to see you, Ba Bu Yi is already insane. Do you intend to marry Ah Dai?"
Xuan Yue shook her head and said, "Dad, I don’t know, I really don’t know." She knew her father didn’t like Ah Dai, and with him in grief, how could she further upset him?
Xuan Ye said, "Logically speaking, I lost the bet with the Sword Saint of the Tian Gang back then. I never thought that boy Ah Dai would beco so strong, not even the Light of Reincarnation could deal with him. Since I lost, I should marry you to him. But regarding your marriage, I won’t force you this ti; it is entirely up to you. If you believe Ah Dai can bring you happiness, then be with him. I won’t oppose it any longer. I’m speaking from my heart, there’s no need to worry, I don’t want to see you unhappy!"
Xuan Yue’s eyes reddened, and she threw herself into Xuan Ye’s embrace, sobbing, "Dad, you’re so good, you treat Yue Yue so well. It was Yue Yue who was wrong in the past, always making you angry. Please forgive Yue Yue."
Xuan Ye stroked his daughter’s smooth, long hair and smiled, "Silly child, how could Dad bla you? You’re Dad’s only daughter, I can’t love you enough! After seeing the tragic fate of Big Brother Ballon’s family two days ago, I cherish you and your mother even more now. The warmth of family is the greatest happiness. Compared to him, I am truly fortunate. I have a wife who loves and an outstanding daughter. I am already content. Moreover, when I fought Ah Dai that day, I found that he indeed is not a bad choice for a son-in-law. Although his looks are average, his tall stature and strong abilities are well-matched for my daughter. Besides, he has a kind heart. If he hadn’t risked his life to prevent the Nine Heavens God Thunder from striking, I would have long been destroyed. In the past, I was too prejudiced. Dad won’t stop you from being with him anymore."
"Dad, thank you, thank you. I, I..."
"My dear daughter, say no more." Xuan Ye opened his arms and embraced his wife and daughter into his warm embrace. The three of them felt a strong sense of familial love, feeling much comforted in their hearts.
"Bang, bang, bang," the sound of knocking suddenly ca from outside. Xuan Ye, who was enjoying the joy of family, felt a surge of displeasure at being disturbed, and frowned, "Who is it?"
"Reporting to the Priest. Clan Leader Di Ya of the Yajin Tribe seeks an audience with Red Robe Priest Xuan Yue."
"Clan Leader Di Ya of the Yajin Tribe?" Xuan Ye looked at his daughter in confusion and asked, "Yue Yue, do you know her?"
