Chapter 1198: Chapter 519 Opening a New Path, True Spirit Realm!
Shu Family Village.
As they delved deeper into the village, occasionally they saw children running and playing, rushing like a gust of wind towards the place where gongs and drums were being beaten.
"Look, the bride is coming!"
"Let’s go see the bride!!"
"..."
The children’s voices were filled with joyful cheers.
Jiang Yuan, seeing this, couldn’t help but smile knowingly.
Then he spoke, "Old uncle, you just mentioned that Dazhuang’s family isn’t lacking food now. Why is that? Has Shu Dazhuang’s family suddenly become prosperous?"
Upon hearing this, the elderly man immediately nodded, "You’re right, young man. Shu Dazhuang’s family indeed has prospered. They gave birth to a good son! Now, their son has successfully joined the Golden Sand Martial Arts School and has learned some impressive martial arts skills."
"Oh! I see!" Jiang Yuan slowly nodded, following the elder and continuing forward.
Shu Family Village was not large, only hosting a little more than thirty households.
In just a moment, Jiang Yuan and Shu Xiaoxiao arrived in front of the Shu family’s ancestral hall.
The place was bustling with noise; they were setting up outdoor banquet tables, a total of eighteen.
The smell of firecracker smoke that had burst open had not yet fully dissipated and still lingered in the air.
Just as Shu Xiaoxiao saw the scene in front of the ancestral hall, her body shuddered, and she came to a stop.
"What do you think? Is it him?" Jiang Yuan said slowly, standing beside Shu Xiaoxiao.
"Yes!" Shu Xiaoxiao nodded slightly, "It’s them, my parents and my brother!"
As her words fell, she spoke again, "This is... good!"
Elsewhere.
Shu Dazhuang was intermittently responding to toasts from the elders and fellow villagers, feeling somewhat proud amidst the compliments reaching his ears from time to time.
His son had accomplished something in the martial arts, definitely something to be proud of.
With his martial arts skills, he needn’t think about the future for now, as he could at least become a bodyguard for a prominent household.
Given the chance, he might even don the official’s robes and become a constable!
Moreover, today his son was getting married, ensuring the Shu family would have descendants. With this, he could face the ancestors of the Shu family.
Naturally, his heart was full of pride.
Just then, his wife beside him suddenly began to sob softly.
Shu Dazhuang turned his head and saw his wife of many years with tears in her eyes and a choked expression.
"Woman, what’s wrong?" Shu Dazhuang couldn’t help asking.
"I think... I think I saw Xiaoxiao!" Shu’s mother said, sobbing.
"Xiaoxiao? Where?" Shu Dazhuang looked around doubtfully, not noticing anything out of the ordinary.
"Look over there!" Shu’s mother pointed towards Jiang Yuan and Shu Xiaoxiao.
At this moment, Jiang Yuan’s gaze landed on the hero of the day’s celebration, the groom, who was also Shu Xiaoxiao’s brother.
Instantly, the young man’s face appeared in Jiang Yuan’s vision.
[Name]: Shu Xiaonan
[Realm]: Second level of the Body Forging Realm
[Innate Fate Energy]: Robust Strength (White)
[Robust Strength]: An exceptional physique, naturally stronger in strength.
Jiang Yuan nodded inwardly, possessing a white Innate Fate Energy; no wonder they said he had achieved success in the martial arts, he indeed had some talent.
The next moment.
Jiang Yuan glanced sideways and immediately saw the gazes of Shu’s father and mother.
"Xiaoxiao, your parents seem to have noticed something!"
On the other side.
Shu Dazhuang withdrew his gaze and shook his head slowly, "Those two must be a young master and maid from some big family; how could they be Xiaoxiao."
"But... but I haven’t forgotten Xiaoxiao’s gaze, her gaze is exactly Xiaoxiao’s, it’s really her!!"
Seeing his agitated wife, Shu Dazhuang quickly grabbed her arm, "Don’t make a scene, I’ve been looking for a broker some time ago but couldn’t find any trace of Xiaoxiao! You know our daughter well enough, don’t you? It can’t be Xiaoxiao!"
At that time.
Jiang Yuan looked at Shu Xiaoxiao beside him, "Shall we go over and have a look?"
Shu Xiaoxiao shook her head, "No need! There’s no need to disturb them. Besides, they are doing well! From now on, Xiaoxiao will just depend on the Young Master!"
With those words, Shu Xiaoxiao looked once more at her mother.
Then, in an instant, their figures disappeared from the spot.
"Eh! Where did the young man go?" The elder looked back around.
Meanwhile.
Shu’s mother’s somewhat agitated expression suddenly calmed, and then large tears welled up in her eyes.
"That’s good! That’s really good!!!"
Hearing those few words from Shu Xiaoxiao in her ear, she murmured to herself, her face full of relief.
...
Supreme Mystery Sect.
The two of them returned to the mansion.
"Feels so good to be back home!" Shu Xiaoxiao said with a face full of joy.
"It is quite nice!" Jiang Yuan also slowly revealed a smile.
Suddenly.
Shu Xiaoxiao turned her head to Jiang Yuan, "Thank you, Young Master!"
"Thank me for what?" Jiang Yuan said, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth as he gently stroked Shu Xiaoxiao’s head.
"Thank you for accompanying me back home! Now that my parents are healthy and happy, and my brother has married and started his career, I too can completely rest at ease!" Shu Xiaoxiao spoke out.
Jiang Yuan, caressing her head, said, "I knew you weren’t so easily going to let go of your family!"
Shu Xiaoxiao looked up at Jiang Yuan, her face blossoming into a radiant smile.
.....
The next day.
The morning sun climbed over the ridge, just risen, and the golden rays of warmth scattered across the courtyard, onto Jiang Yuan.
At this moment, he seemed touched by divinity.
His mind was serene at that time, free from any distracting thoughts.
Apart from Shu Xiaoxiao, no one knew he had sat cross-legged in this place for the entire night.
Throughout the night, he had been adjusting his state to reach its optimum condition.
