Chapter 708 Siblings Reunited!
Yang Jian looked at the girl outside the palace gate, and felt as if something had struck his heart hard.
After many years, the little girl who used to follow him around calling him "Second Brother" has grown into what she is today.
But when he heard "Second Brother," he felt that nothing had changed.
Yang Chan is still Yang Chan.
It was his third sister.
Yang Jian opened his mouth, intending to say a lot.
How have you been these past few years?
Have you been wronged?
Has anyone bullied you?
But the words stuck in my throat.
In the end, only the simplest sentence remained.
"Third Sister."
After that sound, Yang Chan could no longer hold back.
She loosened her grip on her sleeve, rushed into the main hall, and threw herself into Yang Jian's arms.
"Second Brother!"
Yang Chan's tears fell instantly; the grievances she had suppressed for many years could no longer be contained at this moment.
She didn't want to lose her composure in front of her master.
I didn't want to make a fool of myself in front of Senior Brother Lingzhu.
But she really couldn't help it.
Over the years, she has cultivated in the Nuwa Palace, where she has no shortage of food and clothing, and no one has bullied her.
Nuwa treated her very well, and Lingzhuzi always took care of her.
But it's different when family isn't around.
After each session of her spiritual practice, she would wonder where her second brother was.
Is he alive, or is he injured?
Are you also looking for her?
Is there any day when the siblings will be able to see each other again?
Now that she had actually met him, she didn't know what to say and could only hold Yang Jian tightly.
Yang Jian raised his hand and gently patted Yang Chan's back.
He was usually decisive and ruthless, and he never backed down in the face of the Heavenly Court.
But at this moment, his palm fell very lightly.
He was so light that it was unlike Yang Jian, who dared to storm the Southern Heavenly Gate.
"Third sister, it's alright now."
"Second brother is here."
"I won't leave you alone anymore."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chan cried even harder.
"Second brother, why are you so late?"
"I've been waiting for you for so long."
"I always thought you didn't want me anymore."
Yang Jian felt a pang of pain in his heart.
These words carry more weight than any magic weapon.
He could withstand the heavenly soldiers and generals, but he couldn't withstand his third sister's words.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
"How could my second brother possibly abandon you?"
"Back then, my second brother was incompetent and couldn't protect you."
"Things are different now."
"If anyone dares to touch you in the future, your second brother will settle accounts with them first."
Yang Chan looked up, tears still streaming down her face.
"real?"
"real."
Yang Jian nodded.
That's the truth.
Lingzhuzi, who was standing nearby, was initially a little embarrassed by what she saw.
He's usually quick-witted, but even he knew not to interrupt at this moment.
If he were to say "Stop crying" to his junior sister who's crying like this, he'd be incredibly thoughtless.
Lingzhu touched her nose and quietly moved half a step to the side.
He thought to himself, "This Yang Jian looks cold, but he's actually quite gentle with his junior sister."
That's more like a real brother.
Nuwa sat on her cloud bed, not interrupting the brother and sister.
She had taken Yang Chan as her apprentice for many years, so she naturally knew that Yang Chan always had her family in her heart.
This child is usually quiet, never argues or fights, and is very serious about his spiritual practice.
But the more she does this, the more it shows that she's keeping many things bottled up inside.
It's actually a good thing that I was able to cry today.
Dongwanggong did not speak.
Looking at Yang Jian, he felt a greater sense of understanding.
When the young master said in the Heavenly Court that he would split the mountain to save his mother in ten days, his tone was very calm.
But now it seems that what lies beneath that calm is more profound than others realize.
This isn't just about saving face.
This is a family feud, a matter of kinship, and a long-suppressed resentment.
Nuwa waited a moment, and seeing that Yang Chan's emotions had calmed down a bit, she spoke softly.
"Lingzhuzi"
Lingzhu immediately stood up straight.
"Master, your disciple is here."
"Take the two siblings downstairs first."
Nuwa glanced at Yang Jian and Yang Chan.
"I will have a discussion with my fellow Daoist, the Eastern King."
Lingzhuzi immediately understood.
Master is giving the siblings a chance to speak alone.
He nodded quickly.
"Disciple understands."
After speaking, Lingzhuzi looked at Yang Chan, her tone much more serious than usual.
"Junior sister, let's go."
Yang Chan wiped away her tears, but still refused to let go of Yang Jian's sleeve.
Yang Jian said in a low voice, "Third Sister, come out with me first."
"Um."
Yang Chan nodded, but did not loosen her grip.
Yang Jian did not break free.
He bowed deeply to Nuwa.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Nuwa said calmly, "Go."
The Eastern King also looked at Yang Jian.
"Young master, this old servant will be waiting here."
Yang Jian nodded.
Then, Lingzhuzi led the way, and Yang Jian and Yang Chan walked out of the main hall side by side.
The palace doors slowly closed behind them.
Even after leaving the main hall, the magical energy within Nuwa's Palace remained gentle.
But Yang Jian's heart was no longer as tense as it had been when he first arrived.
Yang Chan looked up at him from time to time, as if afraid that her second brother would disappear again in the blink of an eye.
Yang Jian noticed it, but didn't say anything.
He simply slowed his pace so that Yang Chan could keep up more easily.
Lingzhu walked forward, enduring it again and again, but finally couldn't hold back any longer.
"Brother Yang Jian, now that you're back, you should spend more time with your junior sister."
"Although she hasn't said it all these years, I know she's always been thinking about her family."
Yang Jian looked at Lingzhuzi.
"Thank you for taking care of my third sister all these years."
Lingzhu waved his hand.
"Don't be so polite. She's my junior sister, isn't it only right that I take care of her?"
"Besides, she's much less of a worry than me."
"I am the key target of observation in the Nuwa Palace."
Yang Chan burst into laughter after hearing his words.
"Senior brother, you're talking nonsense again."
Lingzhuzi said in a serious tone, "This is called having a clear self-awareness."
Yang Jian felt a slight sense of relief.
Although this spirit pearl is unruly, it is not a bad person.
With her senior brother by her side all these years, the third sister is at least not so lonely.
The three of them soon arrived at a bamboo grove.
This is where Yang Chan usually cultivates.
Lingzhu stopped and tactfully said, "I'll go keep watch outside."
"You two siblings can talk slowly."
"Call me if you need anything, don't be shy."
After saying that, he turned and left without asking any more questions.
Only Yang Jian and Yang Chan remained in the bamboo forest.
After a brief silence, Yang Chan finally asked the question she feared most.
"Second Brother."
"Where is Mother?"
Yang Jian's hand paused slightly.
Yang Chan stared at him, her voice tense.
"And the eldest brother."
Where are they now?
Yang Jian looked at Yang Chan, remained silent for a moment, and finally spoke.
"Third sister, there are some things I can no longer hide from you."
Yang Chan's heart sank.
Yang Jian stepped forward and slowly said, "My mother was suppressed beneath Peach Mountain."
"My elder brother and father are now in unknown danger of death."
"And I have already made a ten-day agreement."
"Ten days later, I will go to Taoshan to rescue my mother."
Yang Chan suddenly looked up.
"Second brother, say it again."
Yang Jian did not evade the question.
"Ten days later, I will split Mount Peach."
"Rescue Mother."
Yang Chan took a step forward, almost without hesitation.
"I want to go with you."
