2042 Accident 3
Three days and three nights later.
Gu Chaoyan had just walked down the mountain range.
She was heading towards the Yan Family.
She had the inheritance, but she had no idea what to say about Huaijin.
Mother and Mr. Zhao anxiously awaited their return, but Gu Chaoyan knew she was the only one who could go home.
Overwhelmed with emotions, Gu Chaoyan couldn’t hold back her tears.
She wiped away the teardrops, steadying her emotions before setting off towards the Yan Family residence.
The teleportation talismans were of no use to her; Huaijin had been carrying them. He had insisted on waiting for her so they could return home together.
But now…
Gu Chaoyan burst into tears once again.
The weight of what had transpired weighed heavily on her heart whenever she recalled those events.
She didn’t know how to activate the teleportation talismans. She had planned to wait until Huaijin woke up so they could use them to travel back to Yan Manor as a united family.
The Dragonman in her arms spoke, his voice reminiscent of a mischievous child. “You’ve been crying for so long. I’m still young, and I don’t feel as sad when my father is gone. Besides, my father isn’t truly gone; he’s still alive.”
The Dragonman’s words carried a touch of bitterness, yet he spoke with unwavering resolve.
Hearing his consolation, Gu Chaoyan realized that he was trying to comfort her.
He was right.
While its father was gone, Huaijin was still alive.
The Dragonman consistently addressed him by his real name, much like his father used to do.
Perhaps, in the Dragonman’s eyes, his father hadn’t truly departed.
Gu Chaoyan gently reached out to touch the Dragonman’s head.
Startled, the Dragonman swiftly evaded her touch. “Who said you could touch my head? You haven’t given me father’s gold, silver, and jewelry yet!”
Once again, the Dragonman requested those items.
Helplessly, Gu Chaoyan looked at the Dragonman.
Well…
He resembled his father in his love for wealth.
Otherwise, the Dragon Tribe wouldn’t be known for their insatiable greed for gold, silver, and jewelry.
His mind was fixated on wealth.
While those precious resources—gold, silver, jewelry, and Spirit Stones—were of great value to her, the Dragonman insisted that she find an appropriate moment to present them to him. However, this little Dragonman had a bear-like disposition, and she required certain conditions before fulfilling his desires.
She had thought it through.
Gu Chaoyan took it home.
They arrived at the Yan Manor.
Holding back her tears, Gu Chaoyan forced herself to leave.
Soon the whole Yan Manor knew about her return.
The door of the Yan Family was shut.
Madame Yan, Yan Shuang, Zhao Yiqiu and Yan Lin were all here.
“Where is Huaijin?” Madame Yan asked Dao Seeking seeing that she was alone.
“He’s staying at the dragon vein,” Gu Chaoyan replied. She forced a smile to avoid appearing distressed. “On our way back home, we encountered an elderly man who was deeply immersed in cultivation. He wanted to guide Huaijin in his cultivation, so he decided to stay behind. He assured me that he would return once his cultivation was complete. Please don’t worry.”
“Really?” Yan Shuang’s face brightened with joy upon hearing the news.
In the Shenyou Continent, life was arduous for those without spiritual energy, and the same held true within the Yan Family.
If Huaijin possessed spiritual energy, he could reside in the Shenyou Continent or visit whenever he pleased.
It was indeed a fortunate circumstance.
Yan Shuang and Zhao Yiqiu exchanged a glance, their expressions filled with happiness.
Madame Yan concurred.
Since it was a positive development, they didn’t mind at all.
In a hushed voice, Madame Yan added, “My men have completed their inquiries and have returned.”
