Everyone unknowingly gathered around Bai Ruyue and listened to her talk about Xiao Chen's childhood.
In fact, there was nothing much to say about Xiao Chen's childhood. Compared to children of the same age, Xiao Chen was very mature. He was already very sensible when he was five or six years old. Moreover, Xiao Qing and Bai Ruyue did not have to worry about his cultivation. Xiao Chen was able to arrange his time in an orderly manner.
Moreover, Xiao Chen showed great talent when he first came into contact with martial arts cultivation. At that time, as a large family in Ling Shan County, Xiao Qing specially hired many teachers for Xiao Chen. However, these teachers did not stay in the Xiao Family for long. The reason was very simple. Xiao Chen's progress was too fast. In the end, these teachers basically had nothing to teach him.
Thinking about it, when Xiao Chen was young, Ling Shan County was definitely the poorest place in the Heavenly Chen Continent. The teachers who could be hired here definitely had very low cultivation and knowledge. Therefore, they did not have any real ability to teach Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen did not have too many embarrassing incidents when he was young. Perhaps there was nothing to talk about. In the end, Bai Ruyue simply told everyone about Xiao Chen's bed-wetting when he was young.
"I still remember when this kid wet his bed for the first time …" Bai Ruyue said excitedly.
Bai Ruyue said excitedly. But at this time, Xiao Chen couldn't help but interrupt, "Mother, why are you talking about this? When did it happen?"
"Yo yo yo, our great Holy Son Xiao actually wet his bed. I thought you were a natural prodigy. Haha." Seeing Xiao Chen's face turn red, Chen Yu immediately teased him with a mischievous smile.
It was very normal for a child to wet his bed. Facing Chen Yu's teasing, Xiao Chen said snappily, "You say it as if you have never wet your bed before."
"Of course I have, but we are just ordinary people. How can we compare to a monster like you? Speaking of which, after hearing about your childhood, I feel that you are much more realistic. Sigh, it seems that there is no way to be perfect. Haha." Facing Xiao Chen's rebuttal, Chen Yu laughed indifferently.
Perhaps it was because Xiao Chen was usually too perfect. Now that they heard about Xiao Chen's childhood, everyone felt that it was more realistic. After all, no matter how heaven-defying Xiao Chen was, no matter how high his talent was, he was still an ordinary human like everyone else. He did not have three heads and six arms....
However, even though they were teasing Xiao Chen, there were still some things that made them depressed. Especially when they found out that Xiao Chen actually came from a small city in the corner of the city. Everyone could not help but admire Xiao Chen's talent once again.
Imagine, if Xiao Chen's birth was better, or if Xiao Chen was born in the Tianhe Continent, then Xiao Chen's current achievements would be much higher than now.
It could be said that during Xiao Chen's childhood, the Xiao Family could not give Xiao Chen much help. They only gave Xiao Chen some enlightenment. After that, Xiao Chen relied on himself. When he was in his teens, he left home alone and traveled all the way from Lingshan County until he entered the Eastern Sword Pavilion. Xiao Chen walked step by step alone.
As they chatted, they unknowingly arrived at the entrance of the Xiao Mansion. It wasn't as dazzling as the Qin Mansion. Although the Xiao Mansion had been renovated over the years and its area had expanded a lot, it was still very simple and there wasn't anything luxurious.
Xiao Chen was very satisfied with the Xiao Family's low profile. The group walked into the Xiao Residence. After receiving the news that Xiao Qing and the others had returned, the Xiao Family quickly rushed to the front yard.
After so many years of development, the Xiao Family's population had increased a lot. Many of the collateral relatives who had been wandering outside had also moved back to the Xiao Residence. Moreover, many of the people of Xiao Chen's generation already had their own children after so many years.
The population had increased a lot compared to before. Under the crowd's escort, Xiao Chen and his family arrived at the main hall. After everyone took their seats, it was inevitable that they would be enthusiastic.
They chatted with each other and talked about the past. For a time, Xiao Qing and Bai Ruyue were both moved and their eyes turned red. When they heard that the small courtyard where the family used to live was still preserved, Bai Ruye could not help but go to the small courtyard where they used to live, accompanied by a few madams, to visit.
In the Xiao Residence, Xiao Qing and Bai Ruyue could not help but recall the regretful past.
Over the years, because they had such an outstanding son like Xiao Chen, the old couple's days could be said to be extremely rich and colorful. After experiencing so many things, people would naturally be nostalgic. Regarding this, Xiao Chen was also deeply touched.
It was rare for them to return to the Xiao Residence. Everyone stayed in the Xiao Residence and was not in a hurry to return to Nine Firmaments Palace.
Living in the courtyard that was once incomparably familiar to them, it was as if time had flowed back to when they were young.
Someone once said that the home was everyone's harbor. Now, Xiao Chen finally understood the true meaning of this sentence. In the Xiao Residence, facing the smiles of the clansmen every day, accompanying his parents in his free time, and teasing his nephews and nieces, his days were extremely comfortable.
It was as if he had lived in the Xiao Residence for half a month. On this day, Xiao Chen sat in the courtyard and drank tea as usual. Beside him were the three women of Qin Shuirou and a few other clansmen of the Xiao Residence. They could be considered as Xiao Chen's cousins. Not far away, there were more than a dozen of Xiao Chen's nephews and nieces making a scene.
Xiao Chen had a sincere smile on his face as he looked at his nephews and nieces who were only four or five years old. This time, Xiao Chen naturally did not come back empty-handed. He also gave many good things to the clansmen of the Xiao Residence, especially his nephews and nieces. Xiao Chen was not stingy. He even personally cleansed the marrow of these little fellows. With this, when they started to step onto the path of martial arts in the future, it would be easier for them.
Facing these innocent children, Qin Shuirou and the other two women at the side seemed to have completely changed. Their eyes were filled with envy. The meaning was obvious. They also wanted to give birth to a son and two daughters for Xiao Chen and have a taste of what it was like to be a parent.
Just as everyone was enjoying themselves, without any warning, four Heavenly Punishments suddenly descended from the sky in the Central Divine Realm, which was extremely far away from Lingshan Commandery. The power of these four Heavenly Punishments was extremely terrifying. Even a Saint would pale in the face of these four Heavenly Punishments.
In the sky, four huge spatial black holes appeared. Through the holes, one could see thick bolts of Heavenly Lightning crisscrossing within these four spatial black holes. A terrifying pressure immediately swept across the land, causing countless people to be shocked. They could not help but look up at the sky.
