Talisman Emperor
Chapter 2035 Reunion
The snowflakes were like mats that floated and fluttered in the air.
Zuoqiu Xue sat cross-legged under a powerful ancient tree while propping up her chin with her hands, and her clear eyes stared into the distance while seemingly in a slight daze.
Chen Lingjun placed his hands behind his head while he leaned lazily towards the roots of the ancient tree, and his eyes narrowed as he spoke leisurely. “It's not strange you feel restless. Because based on time, the Chen Clan Ancestor Worship Ceremony should have ended yesterday. It probably won't be long before we can meet Xi’er. ”
Zuoqiu Xue's eyes sparkled but quickly calmed down again, and she let out a faint sigh. “I'm just a little worried.”
Chen Lingjun smiled and said, “You're worried that they'll hurt him? Don't worry, he is my son, Chen Lingjun. Since he dared to come to the Chen Clan now, then how could something unexpected happen to him? “
Zuoqiu Xue glared at him and said, “He is also my son!”
Chen Lingjun laughed out loud. “Then what are you worried about?”
Zuoqiu Xue looked slightly agitated as she stood up and grabbed onto the group of falling snowflakes. When he experienced the coldness of the melting snow in his palm, he said, “I was worried because of Chen Lingkong. He dared to ignore Chen Taichong's wishes and hurt you many years ago, so we can't be sure that he wouldn't dare to hurt Xi’er this time. You should clearly realize that Chen Lingkong was capable of anything once he went crazy. ”
Chen Lingjun's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he remained silent for a moment before saying, “That probably won't happen. According to Chen Taichong's disposition, he would definitely not allow such a mistake to be repeated. As long as Chen Taichong was in the Chen Clan, then Chen Lingkong would not be able to fulfill his wish. “
As he spoke here, a wisp of complicated expression could not help but appear at the corner of Chen Lingjun's mouth. “A’Xue, don't worry. Xi’er will definitely be fine. “
Zuoqiu Xue glanced at Chen Lingjun, and then a wisp of gentleness appeared in his eyes as he spoke in a gentle tone. “You've recalled past problems?”
Chen Lingjun did not deny that, and he bitterly laughed and sighed. “I've recovered memories from my previous lifetime, so how could I possibly forget such an event that was engraved deep within my heart.”
Zuoqiu Xue crouched down and grabbed Chen Lingjun's hand before she said, “Since you didn't mean to make a fuss about it, then try to forget everything. You are not a descendant of the Dao Dao Protector Clan, are you? ”
Chen Lingjun nodded. “Of course, I can tell the difference between past ties and present karma. My only hope is for our family to be reunited, and I have no other wish. ”
Zuoqiu Xue put her head on her shoulder and muttered. “I did save. Only when I remember everything from the past do you finally understand what you really want. “
Chen Lingjun patted her on the shoulder and did not speak any further.
The two of them lay face to face under the ancient tree while snow flew across the sky and earth, and it made the atmosphere around it seem calm and overwhelming.
The interest! The interest!
The sound of footsteps piercing through the snow resounded from the distance.
Chen Lingjun and Zuoqiu Xue raised their heads together and looked quickly into the distance.
The figure was walking through the boundless world while being encased in snow. He footsteps slightly hesitated yet was a little rushed as well.
At was just like his current state of mind, it was agitated and excited.
The numbers are slowly becoming clearer. He was tall and handsome with snow-white hair tied into a bun on the back of his head, and it fully displayed his handsome and stern face.
His black eyes looked like a boundless starry sky but also like a deep abyss, and as he walked through the snow and wind that covered the sky, it was the same, he looked like a nervous person who returned home after a very long time.
Zuoqiu Xue's body trembled as she looked at this figure, and it seemed like she was frozen in place with an expression of disbelief on her face.
After which, Chen Lingjun opened his eyes wide while his lips slightly opened, and his expression was like that of Zuoqiu Xue.
At almost the same time, the tall figure stopped in place as well, and his handsome face was covered by a complicated expression.
There is excitement, frustration, anxiety, excitement, and so on.
Whooshing sound! Whooshing sound! Whooshing sound!
Wind and snow continued to whistle through heaven and earth, yet the three of them were like status stunned on the spot while looking at each other, and all sorts of emotions surged in the depths of their hearts.
They were all silent when they saw each other yet their hearts surged.
After years of separation, they were finally reunited amidst the snow and wind that enveloped this world, and the indescribable emotions they felt were rising and falling endlessly like snowflakes fluttering wildly in this expanse of the world!
Such a feeling was indescribable with words.
…
“Xi’er!” After a long time had passed, Zuoqiu Xue finally shouted and charged into the snow, and she grabbed Chen Xi in her hand while her body began to tremble with excitement.
Chen Xi's body stiffened, and she hesitated for a long time before she finally spoke with great difficulty. “Mother.”
It felt a little foreign to him. Because he hasn't spoken this word since he was a kid. Most importantly, he was raised by his grandfather, Chen Tianli, from a young age, and he did not even know how he should speak to his mother!
However, this word was like lightning that made Zuoqiu Xue's heart soar. He lost control of his emotions, and two streams of clear and warm tears flowed from his eyes.
He held tightly onto Chen Xi while his knuckles even turned a little pale from exerting too much force. It seemed like he was very afraid that it was a dream and Chen Xi would suddenly disappear.
“Xi’er, you really came. You really have come! Mom was very worried. I was constantly worried that we would never see each other again. I'm afraid you and Hao’er will suffer hardships …. ” Zuoqiu Xue muttered as she poured out all the yearning that had been pressing on her heart until now, and her tears flowed uncontrollably and soaked Chen Xi's clothes.
He took a deep breath and lightly rubbed his back, and he did not interrupt at all and just listened silently.
Although he was a little unfamiliar with this, it was the first time Chen Xi felt so warm and safe.
During this entire process, Chen Lingjun was just watching silently from afar, while his expression alternated between revealing an expression of gratitude, dimming, covered with wild excitement, and filled with guilt.
Perhaps as Chen Xi's father, he didn't know how he should meet his son this time?
…
After a long time had passed, Zuoqiu Xue's emotions gradually calmed down, yet she still refused to let go of Chen Xi.
Meanwhile, Chen Lingjun coughed dryly as he walked forward, and he looked at Chen Xi as he said, “Xi’er.”
He tried hard to maintain the dignity of a father, but because he was too excited, he looked a little stiff while his voice was a bit strange.
“Dad.” Chen Xi's expression looked extremely calm as she spoke in a light voice. However, how could he possibly be that calm? He was just trying his best to maintain his composure.
He was worried that he would lose control and could not help but curse the man who left without saying a word and left him, his grandfather, and his younger brother!
Even if Chen Xi had forgiven Chen Lingjun a long time ago, and even if he knew that Chen Lingjun had no choice but to act in this way, how could such an incident be forgotten so easily?
As if he had noticed that Chen Xi's attitude was a little cold and indifferent, the guilty expression on Chen Lingjun's face became even denser, and he was even at a loss as to what to do.
He wanted to talk but hesitated repeatedly. In the end, he simply sighed with emotion and looked at Chen Xi in silence.
The atmosphere here instantly became silent.
…
Zuoqiu Xue seemed to have noticed the unusual atmosphere between them, and she raised her head to glance at Chen Xi before she glanced at Chen Lingjun. After which, he could not hold his breath before finally relaxing his embrace.
“Xi’er ..” Zuoqiu Xue pondered for a long time and was just about to speak, Chen Xi cut him off. “Mother, don't mention past problems. I've come to take you both with me. ”
“True, true. The past problems are in the past, so there is no need to mention them. ” Chen Lingjun spoke hurriedly from the side while he smiled with a hint of embarrassment. It was extremely difficult to imagine that he was a leading figure who possessed monstrous authority and unrivalled power, and he had led the Chen Clan to take over this plane in Primal Chaos Origin.
Now, however, he was actually a little cautious and confused as to what to do when facing Chen Xi. So, it was really unimaginable.
“You ... don't blame us?” Zuoqiu Xue could not help but ask this question while she looked at Chen Xi.
“Not me.” Chen Xi said casually, “Even if I feel a grudge in the past, I understand and let go now.”
As he spoke, Chen Xi smiled and said, “Dad, Mother, it has been so long since we met. So, while we're going to chat, there's no reason to stand out in the snow like a fool, right? ”
Zuoqiu Xue and Chen Lingjun looked like they had just woken up from a dream, and they hurriedly said, “True! Alrighty! Fine!”
Zuoqiu Xue held onto Chen Xi's arm as she walked towards the ancient tree. At the same time, he instructed Chen Lingjun. “Lingjun, boil snow to make tea. I'll chat with Xi’er in the meantime. I, his mother, was actually completely unaware of everything that had happened to him in these years, so I …. “
As he spoke, two streams of clear tears could not help but flow down his face.
Chen Xi hurriedly supported her to sit on the ground before she said, “Mother, don't cry. I'll tell you about everything I've been through. I'll tell you everything you want. ”
Chen Xi sat by his side as well.
“Alright, then I want to hear everything from since you were young to now. Don't hide anything from me, okay? ” Zuoqiu Xue looked at Chen Xi with a hopeful gaze, and she looked extremely pitiful.
The boundary of her eyes was slightly red, but her pupils were pitch-black and seemed to be overwhelmed by a bright and bright light. It caused her beautiful and beautiful face to carry a warm form of beauty.
Chen Xi ordered her thoughts before she started speaking from a time when she was young in Pine Mist City ….
His voice was calm, flat, and completely natural, yet in their ears Zuoqiu Xue, his voice was like alternating between happiness, anger, hatred, hatred, and so on and so forth.
His emotions rose and fell along with Chen Xi's story, and he was unable to maintain his composure.
After an unknown period of time passed, Chen Lingjun had made three cups of tea, and he placed them on the table in front of Chen Xi and Zuoqiu Xue before he sat quietly by the side. He listened in silence while his heart was filled with complicated emotions and a myriad of thoughts.
Three people, three cups of tea, an ancient tree, and a background of wind and snow while Chen Xi described the past ….
The atmosphere here is peaceful. There was a feeling of unfamiliarity and distance between them from reuniting after such a long time, but it gradually melted and spread with the passage of time and when Chen Xi's voice echoed.
After being separated for too long, one will naturally feel lost for what to do, feel happy yet distracted, and find it difficult to feel comfortable. They all couldn't calm down.
However, as the time they spent together grew, and as such situations were constantly maintained, their family bonds unconsciously fused together like water-soluble blood.
It is a family bond, impossible to erode by time and misery.
