The second time, hot water was served, but Xiao Wu was still not satisfied.

To be frank... it's too hot.

And when she put on her shoes and said she wanted to do it herself, Tang San was unwilling.

"I'll go, I'll go!" He said that he also wanted to get some water to soak his feet, and he would just go along the way.

Without further delay, he set off again.

After he walked away, Xiao Wu's voice rang out.

"Sage Wang!"

"Hey, Sister Xiaowu, what's up?" Wang Sheng smiled somewhat obsequiously, after all, even his third brother was weak and submissive, let alone him.

"When he gets back, tell him not to bother me, I'm going to sleep... Also!" Xiao Wu paused, looking at Wang Sheng strangely.

"What else?" Wang Sheng was completely baffled.

"Also, didn't you smell a latrine odor on him? Tell him to go wash himself clean, or he's not allowed into Dormitory Seven! Understand?"

"I understand, I understand!"

After giving all the instructions, Xiao Wu covered her mouth with her hand. She was really sleepy. Anyway, Tang San couldn't escape, so she would slowly deal with him.

Clutching the blanket Ye Qiu had bought for him, he slowly closed his eyes...

This time, Tang San was smarter. When he returned, he carried one hand of cold water and the other of hot water, so he could adjust the water temperature at will.

Unfortunately, Xiao Wu had already fallen asleep.

After learning of her bedtime instructions, he didn't resist at all, since it was the truth. When he went to the teacher's cubicle that evening... the scene almost left him speechless...

Xiao Wu made him wash himself clean; that's a way of showing she cares about him, isn't it?

Tang San slept late that night, but he was happy to do so. Little did he know, this was only the first night!

……

Starlight does not fail those who travel far.

In the dead of night, with no one around.

At this moment, with the help of the ten-year-old soul beast Iron Hoof Horse, Ye Qiu had already arrived at the entrance of Biyou Village.

He dismounted, his martial spirit appeared, and the iron-hoofed horse disappeared into the vortex.

Looking at the familiar village entrance before him, Ye Qiu didn't linger. He walked and looked around, realizing that almost three years had passed since he left this place...

The stone house, located at the end of the village, was not as dilapidated as Ye Qiu had imagined; perhaps the village chief, Old Man Zhang, often came to take care of it.

He stood under the peach tree for a long time before opening the door and going inside.

There wasn't much dust inside, and the layout was almost exactly the same as when he left. The rocking horse he made for Xiaowu was still in the same place.

He took a blanket from his divine power space, placed it on the bed, and made do with that for the night...

"Hey, old Ye, it's me again, Old Zhang. I wonder how your grandson is doing in Nottingham..."

Early in the morning, Ye Qiu was awakened by an old voice outside; it was Old Zhang's voice.

Click! Ye Qiu got up and opened the somewhat dilapidated wooden door, and saw Old Man Zhang outside.

He was sitting cross-legged under the peach tree, drinking his homemade fruit wine, taking a sip and then spilling some.

"Grandpa Zhang!" Ye Qiu called out.

"Hey? Old Ye, did you hear your brat's voice? Could it be that I'm drunk?" He looked at the wine bottle in his hand. Although he hadn't drunk wine in a long time, it shouldn't be that bad, right?

"Grandpa Zhang, you're not drunk! I'm really back..."

Ye Qiu crossed his arms and leaned against the door frame, smiling as he looked at Old Man Zhang sitting on the ground.

"Hey!" Old Zhang turned around, rubbed his eyes hard, and forgot to pick up his cane from the ground. He staggered toward Ye Qiu.

"Ye Qiu, you're really back?!"

"Of course it's true!" Ye Qiu walked over and reached out to help him.

"Haha...you've grown quite a bit taller! And you've become much more handsome..." Old Zhang pinched his arms and shoulders, looking him up and down.

Unfortunately, before he could finish praising me, he started complaining again, "When did you get back? You didn't even come in for a visit... Did you think this old man was trying to climb the social ladder?"

"Grandpa Zhang, why do you still like to say these things? I arrived in the middle of the night, how could I disturb you?"

Ye Qiu was sweating profusely. After he stood still, he walked to the side, bent down to pick up the cane that he had dropped, and put it back into his hand.

"Alright, then you've passed..." He tugged at his gray beard.

Ignoring Ye Qiu's eye roll, she pulled him towards her house, saying, "How about we go to my place for breakfast now? I'll get you something good..."

"Of course!" Ye Qiu patted his stomach; he hadn't eaten dinner yesterday and was indeed hungry.

"Then you should pay your respects to Old Ye properly first. I'll go back and tell your aunt."

"Okay, please be careful and take care..."

Watching the old man slowly walk away with his cane, Ye Qiu couldn't help but smile. Everything was still so familiar... the taste of home!

After finding a few incense sticks in the stone house,

Taking over the seat where Old Man Zhang had been sitting cross-legged, Ye Qiu knelt upright, raising the incense sticks above his head, lighting one stick with each kowtow.

Then, leaning against the old peach tree, she softly recounted her experiences over the past few years:

"Grandpa! These past few years I..."

"I met a girl who was very cute and well-behaved..."

"I met Jerry and his wife; they were very kind and compassionate..."

"I encountered the Tang family father and son. It was dangerous, but I survived..."

"I became a Soul Master, weak yet, but I am growing..."

Ye Qiu talked a lot, and quite a bit of time passed before he got up and walked towards the village chief's house.

Old Zhang and his wife were very hospitable; although it was breakfast, it was exceptionally lavish.

Of course, it would be even better without braised rabbit meat...

"Xiao Qiu, you little rascal, come on, come on, eat more meat. Look at your skinny arms and legs..." Aunt Zhang said warmly, putting the best rabbit leg into his bowl.

Ye Qiu smiled politely and did not refuse.

"Hehe..." Old Zhang chuckled happily.

"It's quite a coincidence, actually. Today is the same day nine years ago when Old Ye found you. Your aunt found out, so she specially slaughtered the rabbit she just bought yesterday, as a way of celebrating your birthday..."

"Thank you, Auntie..." Ye Qiu's eyes welled up with tears. These so-called ordinary people from the lower rungs of the mainland had made him feel the warmth of home...

"Dad! Why are you saying all this? Go drink your wine..."

……

Chapter 29 Weeding

When he returned to the stone house, his belly was bulging. With nothing else to do, Ye Qiu renovated the stone house.

Dusk

The sunset glow illuminates the peach trees, and the evening breeze rustles through the autumn leaves.

He...it's time to leave again. The peach tree sways in the wind, as if nodding.

A vortex appeared in the void, and he quietly left.

Before leaving, he secretly left some gold soul coins at Old Zhang's house.

Next, it's time to go to Holy Soul Village to pull some weeds...

After Ye Qiu left, Aunt Zhang also came to the outside of the stone house. "Little Qiu, Little Qiu? You child...it's time for dinner...!"

After searching around without finding anyone, it belatedly became clear that Ye Qiu had probably already left.

"Well, that heartless brat! He left without even saying goodbye!"

……

at this time,

Ye Qiu is still on his way on horseback...

Biyou Village is located west of Notting City, while Holy Soul Village is located south of Notting City. The distance between the two villages is not too far.

It should take a few hours to get there.

On my way home, I rode from dusk until midnight; now, I'm riding from dusk until dawn.

Standing on a small hillside, I looked down at the village below.

Holy Soul Village is slightly larger than Biyou Village.

He dismounted, let the horse eat some fodder, and Ye Qiu gazed at the rising sun, beginning his cultivation of the Purple Extreme Demon Eye. He had been stuck at the microscopic level for a long time.

As time passed, the purple aura in the sky dissipated, and Ye Qiu's eyes turned blood red.
