Chapter 5: The Roc Spreads Its Wings for the First Time

  The full moon hangs high, illuminating three thousand miles of rivers and mountains.

  Summer breeze is gentle and cool, blowing across eight thousand miles of mountains and rivers.

  Under the grape arbor, a round table with delicious food, mouth-watering cuisine, fragrant fine wine, and occasional gentle smiles, the atmosphere is exceptionally warm.

  Yun Xi's face was stern, facing south and sitting north. His tiger-like aura had not diminished. Beside him was an old woman, Yun family's ancestral grandmother. The others were Yun Zhongzi and his family of four. Four years ago, Yun Zhongzi gained a younger brother named Yun Zhonglong.

  "Father, brother, are you really leaving tomorrow? Then who will play with me and teach me to read and practice martial arts?"

  The sound of Long Nai's voice in the cloud is full of reluctance to part with her nostalgia.

  "Isn't there also a grandfather and grandmother?"

  Yun Zhongzi smiled faintly, and the entire courtyard seemed to brighten up as if a fragrance had wafted through. He patted Yun Zhonglong's little head and said. However, every time he uttered the word "mother", his heart would skip a beat, and that kind of blood relationship made his Dao heart somewhat lost.

  He cherished this kind of blood relationship even more.

  Slowly, he has become integrated into his role as a son, and is no longer the mighty god who laughed proudly in the vast wilderness of his past life.

  "Zhongzi, when you arrive at Fufeng City, be sure to listen to your father's words and absolutely don't go out of the city. It's too chaotic and not safe there!"

  Looking at her eldest son, Autumn Moon felt a mix of pride and melancholy. This son was too sensible, too intelligent, leaving his mother with hardly any need to take care of him.

  "Don't worry, Mother, after Father and I settle down over there, we'll bring you and little brother over!"

  Yun Zhongzi's smile has a very strong affinity, unknowingly, it can calm people's emotions.

  Yun Xi didn't interrupt, he just sat quietly and listened quietly. Since the year he witnessed Yun Zhongzi's miracle, he had shifted his focus entirely to this family of nine sons.

  "My grandson Zhongzi will be the key for my family's true rise in this chaotic Western world."

  This is a problem that the old man often thinks about, and he has indeed taken action. The family's resources are at the disposal of Ren Yunbei and Yun Zhongzi, which has also led to complaints from other family members.

  Who is Kexi?

  The head of the family, who dares to question him face-to-face when he says something is final!

  The round moon glows softly, and the tree shadows slant and shift.

  The night gradually quieted down.

  In the garden, by the side of the lotus pond, Yun Zhongzi took out a few pieces of magic crystal and arranged them into an array in the pavilion.

  The so-called magic crystal is the condensation of the world's spiritual energy into a solid, containing vast and boundless energy, similar to Yun Zhongzi's past life spirit crystal.

  "Grandfather, according to my master, this Spirit Gathering Array can attract the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, increasing the spiritual energy within the array by dozens of times!"

  Yun Zhongzi is about to embark on a long journey, and after some thought, he takes out a very simple Spirit Gathering Array, which will facilitate the old man's cultivation. With the old man's strength increased, their family will also become stronger accordingly, and he will gain more time of peace.

  "Good, good, good! You're indeed my grandson, still thinking of this old man!"

  At that moment, Yun Xi's eyebrows opened and his eyes smiled, and he was greatly comforted. He took out a silver ring and handed it to Yun Zhongzi, saying: "Grandson, Grandpa knows your extraordinaryness, so I won't restrain you too much, let you do as you please! You need to know that the eagle can only soar in the sky to fight against the clouds; the tiger can only roar in the mountains; the horse can only gallop freely on the vast grassland. Letting you go is giving you a broader world!"

  "Only after experiencing the vastness of the land can one open up a great heart; only after witnessing the loftiness of the sky can one set down the goal of climbing to the top. You must also remember, no matter what, you have the blood of my Yun family flowing through your veins, you are the grandson of Yun Xi Kuang, the son of Bei Hu. Your roots are in my Yun family, if there's anything you can't handle outside, this old bones can still help you weather some storms, if you're tired outside, don't forget to come back and rest."

  "Haha! People get more and more garrulous as they age, grandson. This is a space ring, there are some things inside, consider it a small gift from grandpa!"

  A surge of warmth welled up in Yun Zhongzi's heart, and his eyes were slightly sour.

  "I thought I was a cloud-like son, who had once been good or bad under the gate of a sage. The mind of the Tao for billions of years is like an ancient and eternal stone, stable and unmoving. And yet, I was actually moved!"

  He smiled to himself in his heart, but he especially liked this feeling.

  He also remembered that in his previous life, the human race had just been born and was very weak, at the bottom of the desolate wilderness, and could be said to be the food of other races. It was because of their unity, because of his selflessness, because of this kind of human affection, that they overcame countless difficulties and finally allowed the human race to take the stage in the desolate wilderness, becoming the master of all races.

  "I am the son of Yun family, this is my root!"

  Yun Zhongzi suddenly had an epiphany and truly understood the fundamental meaning of bloodline inheritance.

  He was born from the red cloud of Taiyang, his roots, his bloodline, can be said to have none, because he comes from heaven and earth; it can also be said that he is a cloud, because he was born from the transformation of clouds; it can also be said that his root is in the Tianxian teachings, because he is a disciple there.

  However, it wasn't until now that he truly had a preliminary epiphany.

  Bloodline, the foundation of family!

  Inheritance is greater than everything!

  Blood lineage inheritance, whether for a family or for an ethnic group, is fundamental and greater than everything.

  "Home, I finally have a home!"

  At this moment, Yun Zhongzi truly integrated his identity, he was just a member of the Yun family, inheriting the bloodline of the Yun family.

  His mood stirred up waves after waves, eventually returning to calmness.

  His face showed the most pure smile, more enchanting than the night sky.

  At dawn, accompanied by a gentle breeze, Yun Zhongzi followed Yun Beifeng out of the Yun family residence, along with a pair of twin servant girls who took care of him, and fifty Red Tiger Guards.

  Look back lightly and wave goodbye slightly.

  Mother's worried and reluctant expression, brother's tearful eyes, grandfather's relaxed and expectant gaze, all stirred Cloud's heart once again.

  Some people say goodbye is not farewell, but for a better reunion.

  But every time we meet again, it will leave a shallow mark on our hearts.

  It was still early and there were few pedestrians on the street, they had just rushed out when the city gate opened.

  Yun Zhongzi sat cross-legged in the spacious carriage, whose walls were engraved with shock-absorbing magic arrays, making it extremely comfortable without any bumps. Beside him were two 11- or 12-year-old twin sisters, exceptionally delicate and pretty, who were curiously sizing up this young master.

  "Boss, this time going to Fufeng City, won't be back soon?"

  Yun Bei Hu's personality is bold and unrestrained, unwilling to ride in a carriage, walking at the front of the team, riding on top of an Inferno Tiger King.

  This Scarlet Flame Tiger King is a top-grade three-tier demon beast, stronger than even the average peak martial artist.

  Demons are the general term for beast species in this world, they all condense demon cores and release their innate magic. It can also be said that they are powerful beings with strong physical bodies and dual cultivation of magic and martial arts. They are intentionally divided into seven levels, and then divided into three grades: upper, middle and lower, corresponding to the ranks of human warriors and mages.

  Behind Yun Bei Hu's back was the Chi Huo Wei, each of them riding a Chi Yan Huo, which was a second-grade superior demon beast. This was his own power.

  The one who came to ask Yun Bei Hu was the deputy captain of the Chi Yan Tiger Guard, also Yun Bei Hu's trusted aide. He was over thirty years old, not very tall, but very lean and sharp, especially his eyes, which would occasionally flash with sparks of wisdom.

  "Beiwolf, this time I left the family is to start our own business, belonging to us brothers' business, if we don't make a name for ourselves, I will never return to Wangdu!"

  Yunbei Tiger's voice is loud and powerful, with a rich and infectious tone.

  "Boss, it's about time! The brothers have been idle for so long they've gotten sick!"

  Yunbei Lang, this is the name given by Yun Xi Kuang himself, and he is deeply proud of it.

  Although he has some complaints, more is excitement, blood boiling!

  "General, we will neither seek fame nor return home!"

  Fifty Scarlet Flame Tiger Guards shouted in unison, gathering into a song that shook the heavens.

  Yun Zhongzi on the horse carriage had a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.

  "Your career, isn't it also mine?"

  Yun Zhongzi began to build a grand blueprint in his heart.
