Chapter 26: Family Reunion
Chapter 26: Family Reunion
"Hmm?" Lin Qingzhu, who was watering the flowers in the garden, turned towards the entrance. Although Chen Li's appearance was very different from before, she gave birth to him, so she had a special closeness to him, making her wonder in her heart. "Xian'er? Who is he? Why do I feel like I have known him for a long time?"
Feng Xian'er and Chen Li exchanged glances and smiled at each other; she then took Lin Qingzhu's hand and said to her. "We should talk inside, Aunt Qingzhu."
Ling Qingzhu's eyes were fixed on her son; she nodded in agreement and led them into the house. "Let's go inside and talk."
Once they got inside. Chen Li, who had missed his mother so much, immediately hugged her from behind. He then changed himself to his old form and started to sob. "Mom, I miss you so much, and I'm sorry I made you worry about me for these four months."
Hearing Chen Li's voice, Lin Qingzhu's body trembled violently. Even though she didn't recognize her son because of the difference in his appearance, she certainly could recognize his voice. She immediately turned to face him, but she was stunned momentarily as his appearance had returned to his old self, and tears were dripping from the corners of her eyes.
"Li'er... My Li'er... You finally came back to me." Lin Qingzhu said, full of joy; she hugged her son tightly and cried in his chest as hard as she could.
"Mom." Chen Li also hugged his mother tightly and cried to shed his longing that had been pent up for nearly three years.
Feng Xian'er then sat down on the sofa in the living room, and she looked at them with a happy smile.
*Tap... Tap...*
"Why are you crying so hard, Mom?" Chen Meiyi asked as she walked out of the back room, but she instantly froze on the spot seeing her mother crying in her little brother's arms, her body shaking violently at the sight of his face, and tears flowing from her eyes.
Chen Li looked at her and called out softly. "Big sis."
"Li'er!" Chen Meiyi shouted and dashed toward him, then she hugged him while crying loudly. "Hua! I missed you so much, I thought I would never see you again."
Chen Li inwardly sighed and hugged the two of them tightly. "I'm back now, so you two don't have to worry about me anymore."
After crying for a long time, Lin Qingzhu and Chen Meiyi regained their composure. They then pulled Chen Li to sit on the sofa, and they kept looking at his face longingly.
"What happened to you, Li'er? Why did you disappear for so long? And where did you go all this time?" Lin Qingzhu bombarded him with questions, she had been perturbed about him during these four months, so she wanted to know the truth about his disappearance.
Chen Meiyi stared at her little brother in awe; the current him didn't look weak; even his body looked more muscular and robust than before, she said. "Tell us the truth, Li'er. What happened to you four months ago? And where have you been training for these four months?"
Chen Li laughed gently, seeing them like that; he leaned on the back of the sofa and hugged them again. After that, he told them everything from the beginning, and their expressions kept changing while listening to his story.
After Chen Li finished telling everything, Lin Qingzhu sighed heavily in her heart, and she didn't expect that her son had almost died four months ago. Fortunately, someone saved him. Otherwise, she would have lost her son by now.
On the other hand, Chen Meiyi cursed loudly. "Those bastards! Their older generation already killed our father and destroyed our family, and their younger generation also wants to kill you."
"You don't need to be angry like this, Big Sis." Chen Li said as he caressed their arms. "The current me is not a weak man. I will take revenge on them and make them regret it for the rest of their lives. However, since those people are powerful, we must do it patiently."
"What do you plan to do with them?" Lin Qingzhu asked with a frown, especially after hearing that her son's voice was so cold. Moreover, she could see a hint of cruelty in his eyes, which frightened her.
Chen Li smiled at his mother. "You don't have to think about that and leave everything to me, Mom. I will destroy all those families to their roots and take everything back from their hands."
"But-"
Chen Meiyi interrupted her mother. "That's right, Li'er. We have to destroy those families, and we also have to avenge our father against them, but you have to be careful about doing this, and I don't want anything bad to happen to you again."
"Relax, Big Sis." Chen Li said as he caressed his big sister's cheek, making her blush. Seeing that, he inwardly muttered. 'Sigh, I already knew she was in love with me long ago, but she buried her feelings because we were ordinary people.' "Anyway, I want to take you two somewhere else, and you can train to become cultivators like me and Xian'er."
"Eh!?" Lin Qingzhu and Chen Meiyi were shocked to hear that, like other ordinary people, they only knew about cultivators and the like from movies and books.
Chen Li then stood up and transformed himself into his true form, it made their eyes widen, and their jaws dropped. "As you both can see, this is my true form, but I can return to my old form using a transformation technique."
Afterward, Chen Li stretched out his hand, and crimson flames appeared in his palm. "And this is my Fire Qi; if you guys become cultivators later, you can do the same as me."
"In that case, I also want to become a cultivator, Li'er." Chen Meiyi said excitedly, as she knew that a cultivator could live a very long time. Moreover, she had no superpowers, so she yearned to become a cultivator to help her little brother get revenge on their enemies.
Lin Qingzhu nodded in agreement; she also wanted to live a long life with her children, and only by becoming a cultivator could that be realized. "En, I also want to become a cultivator, Li'er."
"Alright, I'll send the two of you over there, and Sister Huoli will teach you to become cultivators." After they agreed, Chen Li immediately sent them into the Tianyi Realm, then he took his birth certificate and other certificates because he wanted to register his marriage with Feng Xian'er as soon as possible.
