After they finished eating, the city gates of the inner city of the Imperial City opened on time.
Duan Lingtian put down the silver and paid the bill before leaving the restaurant and entering the inner city with Mo Yu.
The inner city was the same as the outer city, and there weren't many changes compared to a few years ago.
Following the familiar path all the way to his own courtyard house, Duan Lingtian's heartbeat suddenly sped up, faster and faster …
Presently, he was simply even more nervous than when facing a Void Initiation Stage expert.
Homesick!
These words described Duan Lingtian's current feelings.
Finally, Duan Lingtian arrived outside a courtyard house.
This courtyard house was something he'd personally bought that day.
The scenes of the past were still vivid in his mind, as if it was yesterday.
Duan Lingtian stood before the door of the courtyard house and raised his hand, yet didn't bring it down for a long time …
Mo Yu and the little gold mouse were able to feel the heavy atmosphere, so they maintained silence and didn't disturb Duan Lingtian.
Finally, Duan Lingtian took a deep breath before bringing his hand down and knocking on the door.
Knock! Knock!
After knocking twice, Duan Lingtian withdrew his hand, as he was able to hear a wave of footsteps approaching.
In next to no time, the door was opened, and a familiar figure appeared before Duan Lingtian's eyes …
"Young Master!"
Behind the door, the young woman was stunned for a moment when she saw Duan Lingtian, then she had an excited expression as she cried out in pleasant surprise.
"Jing Ru, long time no see."
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled as he nodded to the young woman.
The young woman before him was none other than the manager that Duan Lingtian found all those years ago for his courtyard house, Jing Ru.
"Young Master, if the Madam knew that you've returned, she would surely be extremely happy."
Jing Ru calmed down her excitement after a long time, then spoke with a light smile.
"How's my mother been recently?"
Duan Lingtian had an anxious expression when he heard Jing Ru mention his mother.
"Don't worry Young Master, the Madam is very well … Princess Biyao and Young Miss Xiao Lan would come to see the Madam every few days, and this hasn't changed in these past few years. So the Madam has never been lonely. "
Jing Ru spoke slowly.
"It's been hard on them."
Duan Lingtian nodded. After introducing Jingru and Mo Yu to each other, he walked into the house.
"Jingru, we'll be staying here for a while this time … Help Mo Yu clean up a room."
Duan Lingtian ordered Jingru.
"Yes."
Jing Ru responded respectfully and left with Mo Yu.
"Little Jin, go play by yourself … Don't go too far. I'm going to see my mother. "
Duan Lingtian informed the little golden mouse. After the little golden mouse left his shoulder, he walked towards the backyard.
The flowers and plants in the backyard had changed a lot.
After all, a few years had passed.
Duan Ling Tian walked into the rear courtyard and saw the graceful figure watering the plants there with a single glance. The familiar figure caused his heart to tremble.
Finally, Duan Lingtian took a deep breath, suppressed the uncontrollable excitement in his heart, and slowly said, "Mother."
Mother.
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, he saw the graceful figure in the distance tremble abruptly.
Immediately after, the graceful figure turned around, revealing a devastatingly beautiful figure and face ….
"Tian … Tian 'er!"
A few years had passed, and Li Rou didn't seem to have changed much, but her beautiful eyes seemed to have experienced a bit more. Now, when she saw Duan Lingtian, her face was filled with excitement, and her body started trembling slightly.
"Mother, this unfilial son has returned!"
Duan Lingtian took a few steps forward and knelt before Li Rou, and his words came from the bottom of his heart.
At this moment, as he looked at Li Rou's face that was gradually experiencing the vicissitudes of life, Duan Lingtian's heart trembled with excitement, and his eyes were moist as he squeezed out a trace of a smile on his face.
Although he had possessed Duan Lingtian's body by accident, but all these years, Li Rou had done so much for him, and he had long regarded Li Rou as his own mother, and there was nothing unnatural about it.
After so many years, seeing Li Rou again, his heart trembled, and at the same time, he was like a child who had lost his way, and had once again found a bright light to guide him forward.
"Tian 'er, what are you doing? It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back … "
Li Rou hurriedly helped Duan Lingtian up, and stood on her tiptoes to look at Duan Lingtian's face, muttering to herself, "You've grown up, my Tian 'er has grown up …"
"Mother!"
Duan Lingtian opened his arms and hugged Li Rou tightly, and the tears in his eyes couldn't be held back any longer, and flowed down.
A man doesn't cry easily, and it's only because he hasn't reached the point of sorrow.
Li Rou lightly patted Duan Lingtian's back, and her peerlessly beautiful face revealed a gratified smile.
The mother and son separated after a long time.
"Tian 'er, where's Kerr and Fei?"
Li Rou looked behind Duan Lingtian, and after she noticed there was no one there, she asked.
Duan Lingtian was able to see Li Rou's eyes that were filled with yearning, and he lightly smiled. "Mother, Kerr and Little Fei went on a long journey with the seniors of the sect some time ago … They'll come back to see you after they've finished with their business."
At the same time that he spoke, Duan Lingtian's heart was filled with bitterness.
Presently, the annihilation of the Seven Star Sword Sect was already a foregone conclusion.
It wouldn't be long before the news of the Seven Star Sword Sect's annihilation would probably spread throughout the entire Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom.
At that time, the Peak Master of Alkaid Peak, Qin Xiang, would surely receive the news, and she would surely not return to the Seven Star Sword Sect …
"I hope Kerr and Little Fei can return to the Crimson Sky Kingdom as soon as possible."
Duan Lingtian silently thought in his heart.
He'd already made a decision that he would stay in the Crimson Sky Kingdom for a period of time after returning this time and wait for Kerr and Little Fei to return …
He believed that after they found out about the news of the Seven Star Sword Sect's annihilation, Kerr and Li Fei would surely return.
This place was their roots as well.
"Good, good."
Li Rou didn't doubt Duan Lingtian's words, and she held Duan Lingtian's hand before pulling Duan Lingtian into the pergola to sit down. "Tian, tell mother … How did you get through these past few years?"
Obviously, Li Rou was filled with curiosity towards Duan Lingtian's experiences in these past few years.
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled, and besides the matter of the Seven Star Sword Sect being annihilated, he didn't conceal anything else and spoke of it one by one.
Li Rou listened seriously.
Every time she heard of a thrilling part, she couldn't help but break out in cold sweat for Duan Lingtian.
She never imagined that in a short few years, this son of hers had actually experienced so much, and there were even many times where he'd passed by the gates of hell …
"Tian."
Li Rou held Duan Lingtian's hand, as if she was deeply afraid that Duan Lingtian would leave if she let go.
Duan Lingtian was able to feel the wetness that came from Li Rou's hand, and he knew that his mother was worried about him, and he couldn't help but console. "Mother, don't worry. Aren't I fine now? Your son's luck is great, and when it's necessary, he'll surely be able to turn misfortune into fortune. "
Li Rou lightly nodded, but the worry contained within her beautiful eyes didn't reduce in the slightest.
"Mother, this is the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk I spoke of earlier."
Duan Lingtian withdrew two bottles of 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk and passed them to Li Rou. "Mother, after consuming this 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk, your natural talent will increase to the limits of a martial artist in Cloud Continent … At that time, you'll be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort when cultivating."
At the same time that he passed the 10,000 Year Stalactite Milk to Li Rou, Duan Lingtian's Spiritual Force stretched out and swept towards Li Rou.
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian's eyes opened wide.
"Mother … You … You've actually broken through to the third level of the Nascent Soul Stage?"
After Duan Lingtian detected Li Rou's current cultivation, he had a surprised expression.
The advancement of Li Rou's cultivation had slightly exceeded his expectations.
"If Mother doesn't cultivate diligently, then wouldn't I be completely surpassed by you and Kerr, those two little girls? At that time, how would Mother protect the two of you? "
Li Rou's words were simple, but Duan Lingtian was able to feel the hardships contained within.
He knew clearly in his heart.
Besides the contribution of the top cultivation method, Demonic Beauty Divine Technique, that he passed down to her all those years ago, the reason his mother's cultivation advanced so quickly was mostly because of her own hard work.
His mother had surely cultivated extremely painstakingly these past few years.
"Mother, you don't have to be like this … So long as you properly enjoy life and live happily, I'll be satisfied."
Duan Lingtian took a deep breath, and his voice slightly trembled.
"Silly child."
Li Rou lightly shook her head and smiled. "In any case, Mother usually has nothing to do, so it's not a bad thing to cultivate more … Also, I passed down that Xuan Qiu Divine Technique to Yao 'er and Lan' er, you won't blame Mother, right?"
As she finished speaking, Li Rou looked at Duan Lingtian with a gaze filled with ambiguity.
"Of course not. Since I've passed down that cultivation method to Mother, then Mother can deal with it however you like … So long as Mother is happy. "
Duan Lingtian disregarded the ambiguity in Li Rou's eyes and lightly smiled as he spoke.
He naturally knew who the Yao and Lan his mother spoke of were, and it was none other than Princess Bi Yao and Xiao Lan.
When he thought of those two outstanding women that were beautiful like flowers and had looks that weren't inferior to Kerr and Little Fei, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but sigh in his heart …
Sometimes, being too charming seemed to not be a good thing.
Li Rou shook her head helplessly. She could tell that her son was avoiding it.
When she thought of those two lovely women that had always been silently guarding by her side and waiting for Duan Lingtian, Li Rou couldn't help but feel pity in her heart. "Tian, Mother knows that your heart is with Kerr and Fei. However, Yao and Lan, Mother doesn't wish for you to hurt them … Do you understand? "
"Mother, I understand. I'll find a time to tell them … Don't worry. "
Duan Lingtian lightly nodded his head.
Perhaps it was time for some things to be resolved. He couldn't let those two beautiful women wait for him for their entire lives in vain.
"That's good."
A smile appeared on Li Rou's face, and then she asked, "Right, Tian. How long do you intend to stay this time? "
As Li Rou spoke, her beautiful eyes were filled with anticipation.
From her personal point of view, she naturally hoped that Duan Lingtian would be able to stay at home for a longer period of time.
As the saying goes.
When a son travels a thousand miles, his mother is worried.
"I don't know for now … But I'll try my best to stay longer and accompany Mother."
Duan Lingtian's eyes were filled with warmth, and his heart had completely calmed down after he returned home.
The boundless restlessness that arose from the Seven Star Sword Sect being annihilated by the Azure Forest Tri-Sect had been completely suppressed at this moment, and it was buried in the deepest depths of his heart …
