Chapter 1387: Chapter 1392: Immortal Doctor (Part 1)
“Yan’er, I was wrong, wrong in not going to the Xiao Family to bring you back the first chance I had.”
“Haha, if I hadn’t co to find you, would you have rembered you have a woman and a daughter out there?”
Du Yan no longer had much hope left to live on.
Since that’s the case, there was no need to hide anymore; she would reveal all the hardships she had endured in her life.
“Xiao Yan, you’ve misunderstood Family Head Du.”
At this mont, a white-haired elder, supported by a servant, approached, leaning on a cane.
Beside him, an elderly woman sat in a wooden wheelchair.
Regret and remorse were written all over their faces.
“Who are you?”
Du Yan’s eyes grew sharp, filled with overwhelming bitterness.
But she held back and didn’t show her worst side.
“Xiao Yan, my granddaughter, I’ve wronged you in this life, and I have wronged Xiao’er too.”
The elderly woman in the wheelchair was excited, wanting to get up and touch Du Yan’s face, but she couldn’t.
Tears slid down from the corners of her wrinkled eyes.
For so many years, she had never forgotten her daughter’s departure without a word.
It wasn’t until a few days ago, when Du Feixiong ca to the house, that she knew she had a granddaughter.
“Xiao’er…”
Upon hearing this na, Du Yan couldn’t hold back her tears, falling like rain.
That was her mother’s nickna, as her mother had told her, only her grandparents called her that.
Before her mother passed away, she had taken Du Yan to a mansion and said it was where she grew up, but she was just a maid there.
It was because of what happened with Du Feixiong that she got expelled from the Xiao Residence.
It wasn’t until Du Yan grew up and learned the truth that she discovered her mother was the eldest daughter of the Xiao Family.
It was because of Du Feixiong that she fled from ho.
Thus, she hated Du Feixiong even more and, later, took extre asures under Du En’s influence.
“Xiao Yan, you’ve misunderstood Family Head Du. Half a year after your mother left, he went to the Xiao Residence, bringing a betrothal gift.”
Having said this, Old Master Xiao looked up at the sky, holding back his tears from falling.
Perhaps his daughter wasn’t destined for such happiness…
But being able to see his granddaughter today was fulfillnt enough, even if it ant dying on the spot.
“You really…”
Du Yan’s face crumbled, filled with spasms, and the tears flowed even more.
If only her mother had waited back then, perhaps she would not have beco soone who did nothing but evil…
“Yan’er, I never gave up. I searched all over Thousand chanisms City, walked hundreds of miles outside the city but couldn’t find you. It’s my incompetence that caused you to suffer.”
Even as the family head, at this mont, Du Feixiong couldn’t control his emotions, the redness in his eyes revealing imnse regret.
“Father…”
After many years, Du Yan finally uttered those two heavy yet warm words again.
Du Feixiong couldn’t hold back anymore, embracing Du Yan.
After a long separation, the father-daughter relationship was finally fulfilled today.
“Yan’er, don’t worry, I won’t let anything happen to you. Even if it costs my life, I must ensure you’ll be safe.”
“Father, I’ve endured through even the hardest of tis. Perhaps death will allow
to atone; the mistakes I’ve made are too many.”
In the end, Du Yan was just a girl in her twenties.
Knowing everything now, how could she remain malicious?
“No, Xia Liu will heal you. For now, don’t think about anything, just rest well. There will be answers by tomorrow.”
Du Feixiong wouldn’t let Du Yan speak any further.
Once Xia Liu had rested, she would definitely have a beautiful life ahead.
…
In a courtyard in the northeast corner.
Xia Liu and Du Yu sat under a maple tree, a pot of aged fragrant wine on the table.
“Brother Xia, I am truly grateful. Without you, I could never have recovered, and the Du Family wouldn’t have rid itself of scum like Du En.”
Speaking of this, Du Yu was very excited.
The transformation of the Du Family today was all thanks to Xia Liu.
He was not only a benefactor to him but also to the Du Family.
“You can’t say that. The sealing Du En placed in your body could last at most another ten years, after which you would recover.”
Xia Liu explained.
“Who knows if I’ll still be alive in ten years.”
Du Yu laughed at himself.
With a self-serving elder like Du En, he never knew when he might die.
Besides, in ten years, the changes in the Du Family would be beyond imagination.
“Haha, you’re overthinking it. You still have much to experience in this life; this is just the beginning. I believe you will make a na for yourself in the Kunwu Realm.”
“That’s business for the future. However, Brother Xia, I trust that soon, the entire Kunwu Realm will hear of your legend.”
Du Yu had a feeling that Xia Liu, appearing out of nowhere in the Kunwu Realm, would leave behind legendary tales.
And now, in the Du Family, he had already created a legend.
The youngest third-grade Alchemist, with Qi Cultivation at the thirteenth level!
“Hehe.”
With a slight smile, Xia Liu said nothing further.
He had a premonition that day was not far off.
If he could dismantle the Beast Taming Sect, the Southeast Region would surely quake.
“Let’s not talk about that, after a rest, I’ll treat the poison in Du Yan’s body.”
“By the way, Brother Xia, tell
honestly, do you hold a grudge against my sister…”
Because of the previous incident where Xia Liu was taken by Du Yan to be an attendant, Du Yu was a bit concerned.
“No, I willingly beca an attendant to observe alchemy. Although it was fruitless, because of Du Yan, I gained a rare opportunity.”
As Xia Liu spoke, he thought of that enchanting beauty.
He wondered whether Liu Xian’er had returned to the Northern Region.
“Haha, it was just my wild imagination!”
Du Yu laughed heartily, finishing his drink in one go.
The two drank from day to night.
Since they didn’t use Spiritual Energy to control their drinking,
Du Yu naturally was the first to fall.
After helping Du Yu to rest, Xia Liu tidied up and walked towards the Du Family’s main hall.
At this ti, in the Du Family main hall, Du Yan, Du Feixiong, and so elders were present.
Du Yan knelt in the hall, confessing the wrongdoings she had committed over the years.
Actually, she hadn’t done anything too terrible, just bullied so clan mbers and was sowhat domineering.
Everyone understood that she was led astray by Du En.
It was Du En who bore the ultimate responsibility.
“Yan’er, you don’t have to do this; everyone knows Du En is to bla, so don’t bla yourself.”
“Yeah.”
“Second Miss, please rise. Du En is the true culprit.”
…
“It’s so late, and everyone’s still here.”
Just as Du Yan stood up, a figure appeared at the door.
“City Lord Xue, why haven’t you rested yet?”
“I couldn’t possibly sleep…”
Xue Ao said, glancing towards a certain spot, where a silhouette slowly approached…
