Xiao Qing was overjoyed to finally be reunited with Bai Ruyue. In fact, Xiao Qing and Bai Ruyue didn't have much ambition in their hearts. They didn't want to become experts that could intimidate a region.
What both of them wanted the most was to live a peaceful and peaceful life. If they had to make a wish, both of them only wished to live a little longer so that they could accompany Xiao Chen for a little longer.
It was a very simple wish, so Xiao Qing was already very satisfied after seeing Bai Ruyue.
Not only did Xiao Chen return, even Xiao Qing was brought back by Xiao Chen. Today was naturally a good day. Bai Ruyue immediately ordered people to prepare wine and dishes so that everyone could have a good meal together.
Just as everyone was happily chatting, a cultivator from the Heavenly Chen Continent hurried into the courtyard and came to Xiao Sheng's side. He whispered in his ear, "King Bewitching Sword, His Majesty is here."
The His Majesty that he was talking about was naturally Chu Wuming. Hearing this, Xiao Chen smiled and nodded. He then looked at Xiao Qing and Bai Ruyue and said, "Father, Mother, Chu Wuming is here. I'll go out and meet him."
"Okay, go. Don't forget to come back quickly." Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Bai Ruyu nodded in agreement. However, she didn't forget to remind Xiao Chen to come back quickly. It was rare for the family to be reunited, so they naturally had to have a reunion dinner together.
Nodding in agreement, Xiao Chen then looked at Chen Ling and the other two and said, "Big Brother, come with me. Shui Rou, you and Second Sister can accompany Father and Mother."
After letting the two girls accompany Xiao Qing and Bai Ruyue, Xiao Chen quickly left the courtyard with Chen Ling and Shui Rou.
They walked all the way to the main hall of the Heavenly Chen Residence. Here, Xiao Chen saw Chu Wuming. Compared to before, Chu Wuming was much more dignified now. After all, he was the ruler of a country and held the power to kill.
However, Chu Wuming's prestige was useless against Xiao Chen. How could Xiao Chen care about the emperor of a small country?
Seeing Xiao Chen and Chen Ling walk over, Chu Wuming was very smart. He did not put on the airs of an emperor and took the initiative to greet them. He bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Candidate Saint."
With the passage of time, both Xiao Chen and Chu Wuming's identities had undergone tremendous changes. Therefore, Chu Wuming no longer dared to speak to Xiao Chen like before. On the contrary, he became respectful.
Facing Chu Wuming's actions, Xiao Chen personally helped him up and said with a smile, "Brother Chu, let's go back to the way it was before. I like it better."
Xiao Chen and Chu Wuming could be considered friends. Moreover, over the years, Chu Wuming had indeed fulfilled his promise. Not only did he support the development of the Heavenly Chen Residence, he also treated the warriors of the Heavenly Chen Continent well. Especially Bai Ruyue, he was very meticulous.
Chu Wuming even conferred Bai Ruyue the title of Empress Dowager, which was equivalent to Chu Wuming's birth mother. Of course, this was all to curry favor with Xiao Chen.
However, it was undeniable that Chu Wuming had put in a lot of effort. This was something that Xiao Chen was very satisfied with. At least in the Moonless Empire and the entire Danyang County, the warriors of the Heavenly Chen Continent did not need to worry about their safety.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Chu Wuming was stunned at first, but then he was overjoyed. However, on the surface, he still looked very nervous as he said, "Then Brother Xiao, I will respectfully accept."
"Haha, you brat. Alright, do we still need to talk about this? How it was before, how it is now. Oh right, this is my big brother, Chen Ling. This is the Emperor of the Moonless Empire, Chu Wuming. "
Naturally, he could tell what Chu Wuming was thinking in his heart. It was nothing more than wanting to hug his thigh tightly. However, Xiao Chen did not object to this. He did not even mind helping Chu Wuming. After all, the development of the Moonless Empire was a good thing for the warriors of the Heavenly Chen Continent. Even though Xiao Chen did not need to rely on the Moonless Empire now, this did not hinder anything.
After personally introducing the two of them, Chu Wuming also respectfully called Chen Ling big brother. However, Chen Ling only nodded slightly in response, appearing very indifferent.
It could not be helped. The people around Xiao Chen were really arrogant. Qin Shuirou and Long Qing were like this, and Chen Ling was even more so. To put it bluntly, in Chen Ling's eyes, even an ancestor like Randeng Kosei was probably not worthy of his attention.
However, in the face of Chen Ling's indifference, Chu Wuming did not dare to have the slightest dissatisfaction. Immediately, the three of them walked into the hall together. Xiao Chen sat on the main seat, while Chen Ling and Chu Wuming sat on the left and right of Xiao Chen respectively.
Actually, Chu Wuming did not come here for anything special. It was nothing more than chatting casually. After chatting for a while, Xiao Chen still urged Chu Wuming to go back quickly. Therefore, Chu Wuming did not stay for long and politely sent him off.
However, before he left, Xiao Chen still told Chu Wuming that when he left, he would go to the palace to find him. At that time, the two of them would drink until they were drunk.
Regarding this, Chu Wuming naturally agreed. How could Chu Wuming refuse to drink until they were drunk together with Xiao Chen?
After the two of them agreed, Chu Wuming left, and Xiao Chen brought Chen Ling back to the backyard. However, on the way back, Chen Ling said with some confusion.
"Third brother, why do you have to be so courteous to such an ant-like person?"
Chen Ling obviously looked down on Chu Wuming. In Chen Ling's eyes, the emperor of a small empire was no different from an ant. However, Xiao Chen replied with a smile.
"Big brother, you don't know. This brother Chu has helped me a lot in the past. Furthermore, he has taken care of mother all these years. One cannot forget one's roots, and even more so, cannot burn the bridge after crossing the river. Since brother Chu has never let me down, I naturally cannot let him down. No matter what my status is in the future, he will always be my friend."
Chen Ling did not know the relationship between Xiao Chen and Chu Wuming. Hearing this, he did not say anything else.
After Xiao Chen and Chen Ling returned to the backyard, a sumptuous banquet had already been prepared. Everyone took their seats and began to happily eat and drink.
It could be said that this was Xiao Chen's family's day of reunion. Not only had Xiao Qing and Qin Shuirou returned, even Chen Ling and Long Qing were present. During the banquet, Bai Ruyue had a blissful smile on her face.
In fact, back in the Heavenly Chen Continent, Long Qing and Chen Ling had already acknowledged Xiao Chen and Bai Ruyue as their adoptive parents. After all, they were sworn siblings with Xiao Chen. As such, Xiao Chen's parents were naturally their parents.
Therefore, Long Qing and Chen Ling had always called Xiao Qing and Bai Ruyue father and mother. Of course, the two elders also doted on the two of them.
In front of Xiao Qing and Bai Ruyue, Long Qing and Chen Ling put away the arrogance in their hearts. It was as if they truly treated them as their biological parents. With three children and their daughter-in-law reunited, the courtyard was filled with happiness.
