Chapter 109 Reuniting with Li Dongjun in Tianqi City
"Listening to your words, I'm curious to know who your master is? Someone who can teach a prodigy like you must not be an unknown figure, right?"
Under Helian Yunshen's firm insistence, Mr. Li became curious about Helian Yunshen's master and wanted to learn more about what kind of person his master was!
Upon hearing Mr. Li's words, a hint of sadness appeared in Helian Yunshen's eyes. He lowered his head and remained silent, downing the wine in his glass in one gulp.
Seeing Helian Yun Shen in such a state, Mr. Li seemed to realize that he had asked him something that saddened him.
"My master was a very ordinary person. He never stepped into the formal realm of martial arts in his entire life. He was always just a martial artist."
She always has a sharp tongue but a soft heart when she's with me.
He cares about me a lot and is very concerned about my safety, but whenever we are together, he always uses very stern words to educate me.
Moreover, I was raised by my master.
To me, Tai is both my master and my father!
He passed away three years ago.
His words were spoken calmly, yet beneath that calm lay a deep sadness. His master's death was the thing he least wanted to recall, and the thing he least wanted to face.
Although this matter is now a done deal.
He was powerless to change it.
I'm sorry to have reminded you of such a sad thing.
Mr. Li was able to personally experience the pain of losing a loved one; perhaps no one could feel this pain more deeply than him.
Upon hearing Mr. Li's apology, Helian Yun Shen waved his hand at him, indicating:
"It's okay. Although it's hard to accept, these feelings will gradually fade with time. Sometimes time is the best medicine to heal wounds, but I don't know when this medicine will work."
"Time is indeed a good medicine for healing wounds, but it works slowly, or sometimes it doesn't even work."
Mr. Li nodded, agreeing with the idea. He also shared his own feelings, and the two seemed to empathize with each other in this sorrowful situation.
The two glanced at each other, then raised their glasses and clinked them together to drink.
The atmosphere in the main hall quieted down, and the only sound was the clinking of glasses between the two men.
…………
Second day
Helian Yun Shen rubbed his head, waking up from his hangover. Looking at the scene before him, he felt much worse thinking about what had happened the night before.
"These guys from the Outer Heavens are treacherous and cunning. When the time comes, I must go to the Outer Heavens and turn them upside down, so they'll know who can't be threatened."
Last night's events made Helian Yunshen determined to go to Tianwaitian and settle accounts with these people's sects and families, so that they would see what it meant to mess with the wrong people.
Moreover, in his view, the actions of these people were more likely to cause trouble for him, and the Heavenly Sect was even more despicable!
"Yun Shen, are you home?"
At this moment
A familiar voice came from outside. Hearing this voice, Helian Yun Shen walked out of the main hall and bumped right into Lei Meng Sha, who had come to find him.
Lei Mengsha looked at Helian Yunshen and comforted him.
“I heard what Xinyue told me about last night. Don’t blame yourself too much. It wasn’t your fault. I don’t want to think of myself as a jinx who will bring disaster to those around me.”
"Brother Lei!"
Hearing Lei Mengsha's words of comfort, Helian Yun Shen was deeply moved. It was clearly his daughter who had been kidnapped, and the whole thing was because of him.
But here she is, taking care of her own emotions and comforting herself.
"Alright, stop being so fussy, you big man. Don't cry, come on, let's go drink with your brother."
Seeing Helian Yun Shen's eyes redden with emotion, Lei Meng Sha put his arm around Helian Yun Shen's shoulder and patted him, telling him not to be so sentimental.
A grown man shouldn't cry.
"Ah."
Helian Yun Shen readily accepted the invitation to drink.
Following Lei Mengsha, they walked straight out of the house.
The two soon arrived at a tavern in Tianqi City and entered a private room.
Upon entering, one sees familiar faces in the private room, including Brother Luo, Ninth Prince Xiao Ruofeng, and Baili Dongjun. Dongjun greets Helian Yunshen warmly.
"Brother Helian, it's been a long time."
"Long time no see, Dongjun."
Faced with Dongjun's enthusiastic greeting, Helian Yun Shen responded with a smile.
The group then sat in the side room and drank.
"Yun Shen, I never expected to see you again, and you'd already be the Marquis of Beili. That's a position many people can't reach in their entire lives!"
"What marquis or not? Such things are just external possessions to me. There's nothing to brag about. But I feel that Brother Xiao's father is quite wary and suspicious of me."
He waved his hand to indicate that there was nothing worth mentioning.
Hearing Helian Yun Shen's words, Xiao Ruofeng spoke to Helian Yun Shen with a slight apology.
"On behalf of my father, I apologize to you, Yun Shen. My father's actions were indeed not very prudent. However, please understand that, after all, as the ruler of Beili, he must act accordingly."
My father has many things to consider.
"It's alright, I didn't take it to heart! Anyway, Tianqi City isn't where I usually stay; the martial world is my true home."
"After staying here for a while, I plan to venture out and travel the martial world, seeing what other places there are to see. And maybe challenge some powerful figures along the way!"
"Brother Helian, can you wait for me? Once I've completed my studies at the academy, let's travel the world together!"
Upon hearing that Helian Yun Shen was planning to travel the martial world, Baili Dongjun suggested that Helian Yun Shen wait for him, and that they would travel the martial world together.
She turned her head slightly to look at Baili Dongjun, thinking of Mr. Li she had met last night, and then spoke.
"How could I possibly know when you'll have mastered your skills? By the time you have, many years may have passed."
I'd better go and travel the world by myself first!
When you've mastered your skills and are ready to enter the martial world, we'll meet again then!
"Goodbye Jianghu!"
Baili Dongjun nodded in reply.
He then raised his glass, downed the drink in one gulp, and smacked his lips afterward.
"I feel that this wine doesn't taste as good as the one I brew."
"Alright, let's just make do with this! When the time comes, we'll have Ruofeng bring some royal wine from the palace, and then we can taste the flavor of these fine wines."
"Dream Killer, are you still eyeing the wine in my house?"
"Of course I'm thinking about it, after all, those wines are delicious!"
