Sheng Yunfan looked at the small square courtyard in front of him. This was the northwest corner of the Sheng family courtyard. It was originally relatively remote. After they moved here, there were very few people.
Once, he lived in the main courtyard of the Sheng family, bustling with people coming and going.
A weaker brother is stronger than a younger brother, he has known this since he was a child. In order not to cause infighting and conflicts within the family, he voluntarily gave up his position as the patriarch after he emerged as a leader. He believed that with his qualifications, he could live well wherever he went.
However, he found that he was terribly wrong.
Greedy people will only push themselves further and become more and more greedy.
The favor of rice rises, and the hatred of rice rises.
Now, even for his wife and children, and for himself, he has no choice but to retreat.
Behind him is an abyss.
He doesn't blame others, he only hates himself for being blind and blind, which not only harms himself, but also drags down his wife and children.
He even regretted that if he had known that such a day would come to him, he would never have quit under any circumstances.
Now, fortunately, God still took pity on him and gave him a chance.
His old bones are still there, and he still has time to plan for their family.
Thinking like this, there seemed to be a barrier in his heart that suddenly shone with light, and then the light turned into the speed of light and shot in, and the barrier finally collapsed!
A stream of pure spiritual energy seemed to pour in from the limbs and bones, and the body that had been burned by fire for many years suddenly felt relaxed and clear for a short time.
He hesitated for a moment and was stunned for a moment before finally confirming: He didn't expect that he could still have an epiphany while dragging his body.
In the past, after all, he was too arrogant and trapped himself.
The unusually active surge of spiritual energy around her could not be hidden from Sheng Hongyi.
She took a closer look at Sheng Yunfan, confused and surprised:
"Dad, you..."
Before he finished speaking, Sheng Yunfan shook his head:
"It's just a broken body. I didn't expect that it would be my turn to achieve enlightenment. However, with my body, the path to cultivation is basically cut off."
But this epiphany was not without its benefits. The spiritual energy washed through his meridians and opened up the previously stagnant areas, allowing his body to be slightly strengthened.
Although it can't affect the overall situation, at least it will be more comfortable and better.
Sheng Yunfan originally spoke in a calm tone when talking about his health problems, but his family members all knew that no matter how calm his face was, the reluctance deep in his heart still lingered.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have exiled himself like this in these years, turning a blind eye to everything, not fighting for anything, as if he was really a living dead taking a breather in this world.
But today, when he talked about this topic, his tone was indifferent, as if he was feeling regretful, but also seemed to be trying to survive after learning from the pain.
The tone was no longer pretending not to care. Although it was low, there seemed to be a hope of death.
Sheng Hongyi's eyebrows suddenly brightened. She was the most perceptive, but she was really happy at this moment.
She is attached to her family and naturally hopes that everyone in her family will be full of vitality instead of lifeless.
It's just that a few years ago, something big happened to Sheng Yunfan, and that dark time became a hurdle that the family couldn't overcome.
Now, finally, the clouds are gone, and Sheng Hongyi vaguely sees the beautiful past when her family was together, having fun and moving forward together before she was three years old.
She was so happy in her heart that she couldn't help but smile. She took over Sheng Yunfan's words and said:
"Our family naturally wants to be together, but I don't want to go to the Sky Sect. Where is my sister?"
Concubine Sheng Yu shook her head without hesitation:
"What are you going to do in the Cangqiong Sect? It's not us who did the wrong thing?! Why is it that we are the ones hiding and the bad guys are unscrupulous and get away with it?!"
It was rare for Concubine Sheng Yu to be so tough. Sheng Hongyi couldn't help but take a closer look at her sister and saw that her mood was ups and downs, her face was as red as a morning glow, and her eyes seemed to be on fire, gushing out endless anger.
She was completely different from the previous Concubine Sheng Yu with crooked eyebrows and a smile as pure and kind as a white rabbit.
Sheng Yunfan said anxiously:
"Of course not. Although the Cangqiong Sect is only a small or medium-sized sect, it has a clean sect. In the future, if your mother and I... live to the end of our lives, we can feel at ease."
"Also, if something unexpected happens, at least the Sky Sect can protect you. Father and mother will only have two drops of your flesh and blood in this life. No matter what, protecting you is my bottom line."
Sheng Yunfan had a fateful relationship with Li Yue, the great elder of the Cangqiong Sect. Such kindness was exchanged for two girls entering the sect, and he felt that Li Yue would agree.
Sheng Hongyi put down her chopsticks and suddenly said:
"I agree to join the Cangqiong Sect, but who said I want to go to the Cangqiong Sect? The Cangqiong Sect is hundreds of thousands of miles away from here, as far away as the Emperor is. Could it be that my sister and I went there, but left my parents here?"
Sheng Hongyi and Sheng Yufei are monks, but with their current Qi refining skills, they cannot wield a sword, let alone fly in the wind. They cannot afford flying magic weapons, and it is difficult to go to the Cang Qiong Sect hundreds of thousands of miles away.
What's more, she still has to take care of her family.
Among them is a family that includes the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled, and pregnant women.
To put it bluntly, their family's great hatred has not been avenged.
Sheng Lingbo was hiding in the Xuanchen Gate, and Sheng Hongyi wanted to kill her. First of all, her cultivation was not as good as others, and no matter how long her hands were, she couldn't reach the Xuanchen Gate.
On the other hand, Sheng Lingbo is now protected by a master, and the Huashen Sect has also decided that Sheng Hongyi cannot deal with her easily, otherwise there will be endless troubles.
Evidence must be found.
And this matter now involves demon cultivators, which makes the situation even more complicated.
Therefore, regarding the matter of revenge, even though Sheng Hongyi wanted to simply and rudely destroy Sheng Lingbo's family, she knew clearly that this matter had to be considered in the long term.
Revenge takes a long time, and her weakness in Sheng Hongyi is so obvious. How could she leave her parents under the nose of an enemy that is beyond her reach?
When Sheng Yunfan and his wife are killed, won't she regret it for the rest of her life? !
She had just come back today and had not thought about joining the sect, but Sheng Yunfan's words reminded her.
She lowered her head and looked at her hands. The sun was shining brightly today, and there were colorful haloes flashing between her fingers amid the mottled light and shadow.
For her, she could feel the spiritual energy flowing through her hands, scrambling to get into her pores.
She didn't even raise her eyes, but she said something shocking:
"The sect is going to enter, but if I don't join the Cangqiong Sect, I will enter the Xuanchen Sect, and I will bring you all into the Xuanchen Sect!"
Sheng Yunfan, Bai Wanzhen and Sheng Yufei: "..."
"Ah sneeze!" It was Hui Hui.
After sneezing, it covered its mouth and looked at Sheng Hongyi in horror, fearing that she would catch her and beat her up.
Seeing that no one in the family paid attention to it, it bowed its back and crept into its house.
It didn't see Sheng Hongyi glance at it, sneered, and scolded it as "worthless."
Except for Sheng Hongyi, who picked up her chopsticks and lowered her head to fiddle with the side dishes, the rest of the family seemed to be frozen.
Sheng Hongyi was not in a hurry and waited leisurely for them to come to their senses.
After a while, Sheng Yunfan was worthy of being the patriarch. At such moments, he was usually the one who broke the awkwardness or hesitation.
He went over the words in his mind and tried to speak as softly as possible:
"Hongyi, dad knows that your heart is good, but dad doesn't have the ability to know people from Xuanchen Sect!"
