Chapter 91: Yu Hui Returned

  The big gate of the house was damaged, and there were bloodstains all over the yard. The woman sat in the yard as if she had lost her senses, her eyes dull and lifeless. There is no greater sorrow than a dead heart, and the woman's heart was filled with unbearable grief. Although she didn't cry out loud, her appearance was even more heartbreaking than loud wailing.

  Several elderly people gathered around, also unsure how to comfort each other, and repeatedly wiped away tears.

  At this moment, the woman suddenly struggled to get up quickly in the crowd and rushed towards the bluestone wall behind her. Several old men hurriedly stopped her, anxiously holding her waist and persuading her.

  "His aunt, you can't be like this, if you're also gone, what will happen to the few kids in the future?"

  "Don't worry, Lao Yu and Ji Ren Tian Xiang will be fine, maybe he'll come back after a while. You mustn't do anything stupid."

  Several children rushed out of the house, crying and hugging the woman in a heap. The woman could no longer hold back her tears and let out a loud wail, tightly embracing the children as tears instantly soaked through their clothes.

  If a man dies, how can a woman survive? It's like the sky has fallen, and she is left alone with no support. How can she raise her four children on her own?

  It's said that if the man can come back alive, even the person who persuaded him feels like he has no confidence in his heart. He was caught by the people of Chengxi Fu and wasn't killed on the spot, which is already a blessing. To think that he can still come back alive is simply like a madman talking nonsense. The woman's heart is filled with sorrow and despair, unable to see any hope. That child, for his uncle's sake, ventured into Chengxi Fu, praying to heaven to protect that child from any harm or disaster.

  The woman pulled Li Xiao Xuan into her arms, looking at the child with tearful eyes, and the more she looked, the more heartbroken she became. The same fate of the two families made her heart break, and she tightly hugged Xiao Xuan in her arms. The woman cried: "Xiao Xuan, why are our lives so bitter..."

  The woman's face was stained with a black smudge as Li Xiaoxu unexpectedly didn't cry, and instead stretched out his small hand to wipe her face.

  "Sister, don't cry, brother will definitely rescue father."

  Li Xiaoxu's voice had a resolute tone, and when he mentioned his older brother, his small face was filled with proud expressions, as if his brother was all-powerful, and whatever his brother said would definitely come true.

  The woman was shocked and stopped her sad voice, looking at Li Xiaoxiao's confident expression, and sobbed again.

  "Child, it's impossible! Those who were taken away by the West City Government, how can they be brought back..."

  Suddenly, several half-grown boys patrolling in front of the gate of the courtyard shouted loudly: "Aunt Yu, stop crying quickly, come and see, Yu has returned."

  "Oh heavens, Yuanyuan is back, Yuanyuan is back!"

  "It's really Old Yu who has come back, look quickly, it's really Old Yu who has come back."

  In an instant, a group of people outside the door all boiled over, and the crowd surged forward with a whoosh.

  The woman's face turned white as she hastily stood up, seeing a group of people surrounding the gate, unable to see what was happening inside. With a great sense of urgency in her heart, she hugged several children and rushed forward. The crowd parted with a whooshing sound, and two figures supported each other as they walked into the courtyard.

  Li Ran's face was cold and stern as he tightly supported Yu Yuan Tu, who was extremely weak, with a lingering resentment still in his heart.

  "Really, really is Faraway? Faraway, you didn't die?"

  The woman let out a loud cry and rushed over quickly, embracing her husband tightly.

  Seeing her husband come back alive, the woman couldn't believe her eyes. Yu Yuan Tu squeezed out a difficult smile on his face and gently stroked the woman's cheek: "I didn't die, I'm back, it was Reng Jian who saved me, don't worry, nothing's wrong anymore."

  "Burning Sword..."

  The woman turned her head to look at Li Rendao with a surprised expression, and Li Rendao smiled and nodded slowly: "Auntie, let's go inside and talk, don't worry, nothing will happen, the West City Mansion won't dare to come and harass us again."

  Li Ruo's firm voice inexplicably calmed the woman's heart, and she hastily wiped away two handfuls of tears from her eyes, pulling her husband over. The clear sensation in her hand told her that she wasn't dreaming, and her husband had truly returned to her side.

  The pillar in the house did not fall, and the woman's heart was suddenly filled with joy as if she were dreaming.

  Li Ruo Knife stayed at Yu's house.

  Yu explained to Uncle Yu and Aunt Yu the process of saving people, and also mentioned that he had been admitted to the Xuanji Xianpai and became an inner door disciple. Yu Yuan Tu was both surprised and delighted, only then did they know the reason why Li Rengdao was able to save people.

  In their eyes, Xuanji Sect was an unattainable existence. Li Ruo becoming a disciple of such a grand sect already gave him a completely different identity and status.

  The lord's mansion sent a refined-looking teacher, who respectfully delivered one hundred taels of silver to the Yu family. Mr. and Mrs. Yu were so frightened that their faces turned white, and they refused to accept it no matter what. Li Rendao sneered coldly, stretched out his hand to take the silver, and nodded slightly at the teacher: "Go back and tell Lord Pang that I, Li Rendao, will not hold this against him. In the future, I hope his rule can be more stable and such things won't happen again."

  The teacher carefully bade farewell and respectfully withdrew.

  Send the master away, Li Ranno turned around with a smile and threw the silver on the table: "Yu Shu, this is the compensation from the city lord's mansion to us. Don't be polite, take it. In these days, let your aunt make some delicious food for you to nourish your body."

  The woman was still in a daze, and asked in a low voice: "Ran Jian, this is the city master's money. Should we take it? Will the city master's mansion...?"

  Li Ran Dao slightly shook his head: "Aunt, rest assured, this Pang City Master and my Fang Shixiong are good friends, unaware of the relationship between Uncle and me. This time they know, next time they will protect us even if it's not in time, absolutely dare not harm us again."

  After hearing this, the woman finally put down some of her worries.

  Li Rengdao went to the pharmacy and carefully prepared several doses of medicine, personally decocting it for Yuantu to drink. The medicinal effect was miraculous, and by the second day, Yuantu was able to get out of bed with renewed energy. The woman was deeply grateful for Li Rengdao's lifesaving kindness and went to the market to buy a large table of wine and dishes, filling the entire house with joy and festivity like during Chinese New Year.

  Several children laughed and played, while Li Xiao Xu stuck to his brother's side, not leaving him for half a step. Looking at his younger brother's appearance, Li Ruo Nan's heart also felt a slight pang of sadness, the life and death separations of two lifetimes, every moment his younger brother spent by his side seemed so precious.

  At night, Li Ruo Dao took out a gourd filled with golden honey in the room where he and his brother lived. The sweet fragrance of the honey made his brother's eyes widen as he looked at Li Ruo Dao expectantly: "Brother, what is this? Is it for me to eat?"

  Looking at his younger brother's drooling face, Li Ran smiled with satisfaction: "Xiao Xu, this is Lingfeng honey, it's sweet, but be careful not to burn your stomach after drinking."

  Little brother remembered the feeling of his stomach burning after his older brother fed him medicine a few days ago, and his eyes narrowed with laughter. He grabbed Li Nuan's arm with his small hand: "Brother, you'll help me rub my belly later."

  Li Ran Dao smiled and nodded: "Okay", gently lifted his brother's clothes, one hand lightly scratched his brother's belly, his brother couldn't help but laugh, giggling and rolling around on the bed.

  Li Ran Dao smiled as he looked at his younger brother's appearance, and somehow his eyes became moist.

  If there is no rebirth, how can he enjoy such family joy?

  "I must try my best to bring back my father too, so that our whole family can be reunited and my younger brother can have a happy family to grow up in, then I will have fulfilled the biggest wish of my life."

  Li Ran's knife secretly made up his mind, fed his younger brother a few mouthfuls of honey, and used his palms to apply the Jingyuan Jin on his younger brother's abdomen. Along the meridians of the whole body, the spiritual energy in the honey was transformed, and then flowed back into the Dan Tian.

  Li Xiaoxiao narrowed his eyes and hummed a tune, causing Li Ruo to involuntarily smile again.
