Ye Xuan was silent. He picked up the chicken drumstick and placed it in the child's bowl again. He looked at the child with a gentle gaze and said, "I appreciate Brother Li's kindness, but Han 'er is still growing. I don't think there's any harm in eating some meat."
Ye Xuan's voice was resolute and decisive, causing the couple to bitterly smile helplessly. After that, they vaguely nodded towards the child. This also caused Li Han Er's face to be filled with joy. She directly took the meat in her bowl and left the house. Her tender voice also sounded out.
"Han 'er is done eating. I'm going back to my room to do my homework. Brother, please enjoy your meal with Father and Mother."
This scene made Ye Xuan smile. Li Shan raised his wine cup again. The couple chatted with Ye Xuan again. However, under the couple's strong request, Ye Xuan should eat more meat since he had just recovered from a serious illness. Ye Xuan had no choice but to eat the entire roast chicken.
The night was like water, and the cold wind howled outside. Li Shan was completely drunk, and the couple returned to their room. Only Ye Xuan was left sitting cross-legged on the bed, constantly feeling the strange emotions this family brought to him.
It was late at night and everything was quiet. Ye Xuan finally fell asleep like a mortal. However, a strange sound suddenly came from outside. Although it was not loud, it fell into his ears very well.
Ye Xuan opened his eyes and walked off the bed. When he pushed open the door, the scene that entered his eyes caused him to be stunned on the spot, unable to recover for a long time!
Beside the stove, Li Han 'er was sobbing. Broken porcelain bowls were scattered on the ground. The child's little hand was cut by the broken pieces of the porcelain bowl, and blood was flowing out. It was a sight that would make one's heart tremble.
Li Han 'er was crying, but not because of the injury on his hand. He looked at the dusty chicken drumstick on the ground in a daze. His voice was choked with sobs.
He picked up the drumstick with his bleeding hand and used his sleeve to wipe the dust off the drumstick. However, the more the child wiped, the dirtier the drumstick became. This caused the child to fall to the ground, and uncontrollable sobs came from his mouth.
At this moment!
Ye Xuan's heart froze. He slowly walked to Li Han 'er's side and looked at the child with his deep eyes. "Han' er, don't cry."
Ye Xuan's appearance caused Li Haner to bite her lips. She seemed to have found someone to confide in, and her choked voice sounded in Ye Xuan's ears.
"Han … Han 'er just wants to leave the drumstick for Mother … Mother … Mother is weak and sickly … She hasn't eaten meat for a long time …" The child's voice was choked with sobs, and he was already choking with sobs.
Time seemed to have stopped, and space seemed to have frozen. Ye Xuan stood where he was, staring at the drumstick in the child's hand. His entire being became deathly still, and the sound of his breathing became extremely heavy.
A heartache he had never felt before rose in Ye Xuan's heart. Ye Xuan was unaware of this emotion. He just stared blankly at the child in front of him. His frozen heart was greatly touched. This feeling was indescribable and indescribable.
"Brother Ye, I'm sorry."
A weak female voice sounded out from behind Ye Xuan. Unknowingly, the child's mother had appeared here. She took out a gauze and carefully bandaged the wound on the child's palm. The way she looked at the child was filled with a motherly love.
"Mother … Mother, I'm sorry …" The child clutched the drumstick in his hand tightly, and sobs came from his mouth.
"Mother naturally understands Han 'er's feelings, but this drumstick is already dirty. Let's not take it, okay?" The child's mother spoke softly, comforting Li Han 'er. She even gave Ye Xuan an apologetic look.
"But … but … this drumstick is the one big brother gave to Han 'er … Han' er wants to leave it for mother …"
"Food can't be eaten if it's dirty. Mother appreciates Han 'er's filial piety. When Han' er grows up, I'll buy good food for mother every day, okay?"
The scene in front of him made Ye Xuan take a deep breath. However, his fists were clenched tightly. He then walked to the mother and son's side. Under the mother and son's surprised gaze, Ye Xuan took the drumstick in the child's hand and slowly put the dusty drumstick into his mouth. “
"Brother Ye, you …" Such a scene made the child's mother cry out in shock.
Ye Xuan chewed and swallowed the drumstick bite by bite. It was as if he wasn't eating the drumstick. It was as if he was eating life. It contained the joys and sorrows of mortals, and it also contained Li Han 'er's true feelings.
When he finished eating the drumstick, Ye Xuan stroked the child's hair and said in a low voice, "Han 'er, this is the best food big brother has ever eaten."
…
Time passed, and Ye Xuan settled down in Clear Sky Town.
Ye Xuan opened a private school in Clear Sky Town and became a teacher. Li Han 'er was his first student. As time passed, many parents in the town sent their children to the private school. As tuition, they received some meat, vegetables, and linen clothes.
Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.
Where there were people, there would be jianghu. Where there was jianghu, there would be grievances. This sentence was even more applicable to cultivators.
In these ten years, the outside world had undergone earth-shaking changes. Millions of cultivators died tragically in the void, and the Immortal Cultivation Alliance became history. This also caused many Immortal Cultivation Sects to rise. They wantonly recruited disciples from the outside world, and following that, the Immortal Cultivation Sects attacked each other just to rise in the human world.
From time to time, cultivators who passed by Clear Sky Town would talk about some interesting things in the outside world. This made the mortals in the town yearn for it, and they even knelt and kowtowed to the cultivators.
Ten years!
It was neither long nor short. Ye Xuan did not appear in the world for twenty years. Other than Fatso Huang and the others who were still looking for his whereabouts, the world had gradually forgotten his existence.
The world was vast and boundless. When a force was destroyed, there would naturally be another force to replace it. In the long river of history, there had never been a lack of people with peerless talent.
Many heaven-gifted geniuses appeared out of nowhere, and various major immortal sects rose up in the mortal world. They fought against each other just to become the number one orthodoxy in the mortal world and replace the former Immortal Cultivation Alliance.
However, Ye Xuan's name was no longer in the world, and there were also fewer hot topics for the world to discuss.
When the Immortal Cultivation Alliance was destroyed, the major Immortal Cultivation Sects were still afraid that the Underworld would reappear in the world and replace the Immortal Cultivation Alliance. However, twenty years later, the Underworld had not been rebuilt, and Ye Xuan had never appeared in the eyes of the world.
In fact, even if Ye Xuan did not appear in the human world, Fatso Huang could also rebuild the Underworld and suppress the entire human world. However, Fatso Huang listened to Ye Xuan's instructions. Since the Underworld no longer existed, there was no need for it to appear in the human world.
The world finally came to a conclusion that Ye Xuan was a real immortal. He would not care about the cultivation resources of the human world at all. Perhaps he had already returned to the legendary Immortal World.
This rumor became more and more widespread, which also made the major Immortal Cultivation Sects put down their fear of Ye Xuan and began to fight each other, all wanting to become the number one orthodoxy in the human world.
