Cultivating a family of immortals

As soon as he finished speaking, all the disciples present looked at Xu Wanghe with even greater respect.

Even people from the Haoran Immortal Sect had to be informed, which shows how prestigious the Xu family is in this area!

However, they were unaware of what the name Lin Wanxing meant to the Xu family.

Lin Wanxing's decision to come and seek an audience was naturally out of respect for the Xu family.

Xu Wanghe paused on the high platform, turned to look at Xu Changle, and both father and son had solemn expressions in their eyes.

Outside the Xu residence, Lin Wanxing held Luo Luo's little hand and stood at the gate, looking at the local soldiers and spirit plant growers coming and going, as well as the Xu residence that had long since changed. She felt a sense that things were no longer the same, and people were no longer the same.

I felt a deep sense of loss.

Luo Luo asked softly from the side:

"Mother, why are you crying?"

Lin Wanxing realized her lapse in composure, wiped away her tears, and said with a smile, "Really? I guess the scene has brought back some memories."

Luo Luo is ten years old this year. Although she has not yet developed spiritual roots, she has already developed self-awareness.

After a moment of silence, he asked, "Mother, the Xu Guanyi that the sect leader mentioned... is that my father? Is this Father's house? What kind of person is Father?"

Lin Wanxing didn't know how to explain. She met Xu Guanyi when she was thirteen, and it had only been three years since they got together. She had just turned sixteen.

During the ten years she was imprisoned in the Haoran Sect, she was almost completely ignorant of the ways of the world and depended on Luo Luo for survival. How could her mind be considered mature?

At twenty-six, she was still just a little girl, just like she had been back then.

After a moment of silence, she smiled and said, "Your dad is just like me, a bit silly, which is kind of cute."

Luo Luo nodded, but felt his mother holding his hand, which was covered in sweat.

A moment later, the butler rushed over; this man was none other than Sun Erzhu.

A few more strands of white hair appeared at his temples, and his body became more hunched, but the light in his eyes was no less than it had been in his youth.

Lin Wanxing naturally recognized him, and disregarding the difference between them as immortals and mortals, she took the initiative to bow and say:

"Uncle Sun, what did Master Xu... say?"

Sun Erzhu looked at the immortal master in front of her with complicated feelings, and the scene of Xu Guanyi holding her hand and strolling through the Qingping Mountain village came to mind.

At that time, he was still mentally impaired, and his intuition told him that the two people were like gods from heaven.

It wasn't until after the Qingming Festival that Sun Erzhu learned that Guan Yi, that child... had also been murdered!

As for Lin Wanxing, it was uncertain whether she was also involved in this matter, or perhaps she knew about it!

Therefore, after ten years apart, when he saw her visiting the Xu family, leading this young child, whose face vaguely resembled Guan Yi, Sun Erzhu felt a mix of emotions.

He smiled and said, "The head of the family is waiting for you in the main hall."

Lin Wanxing nodded and, led by Sun Erzhu, arrived at the main hall.

The moment Lin Wanxing saw the Xu family, she felt as if she had been reborn, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.

Li Rongping was also summoned, and at this moment she looked at Lin Wanxing with a very complicated expression.

Everyone looked down at the child, their hearts trembling, but their expressions remained unchanged.

Xu Wanghe smiled and stood up, saying, "Immortal Master Lin is welcome to come and go as he pleases at my Xu family's residence. There's no need for someone to announce his arrival."

Hearing this, Lin Wanxing shook her head, tears streaming down her face, thinking to herself that the Xu family probably still didn't know about Guan Yi's murder...

After thinking it over, she slowly led Luo Luo to kneel down.

"What is the reason for this, Immortal Master?"

Lin Wanxing tearfully recounted Guan Yi's death.

The Xu family naturally knew the truth. Upon hearing this, the father and son exchanged a glance, somewhat puzzled.

After everyone feigned shock and listened to Lin Wanxing's story, Xu Wanghe secretly pondered:

"My son was murdered by Lin Feizi of the Haoran Sect. This woman has not been seen for ten years since the end of the great war. Now she has suddenly come to visit us and told us the truth about Guan Yi's murder. I don't know what she wants!"

However, Xu Wanghe stared intently at Lin Wanxing's expression, feeling somewhat uncertain.

Upon hearing that she had been imprisoned in the Haoran Sect for ten years, and that the sect's purpose was to test whether her son, Luo Luo, possessed a Heavenly Spiritual Root, Xu Wanghe stared at Luo Luo with astonishment and suspicion.

Xu Changle asked solemnly from the side:

"Master Lin, according to you, this child is Guan Yi's son?"

Lin Wanxing nodded. "Absolutely true."

All eyes fell on Luo Luo, and upon closer inspection, they could indeed see some resemblance to Guan Yi.

Luo Luo looked at everyone and felt a strange sense of familiarity welling up inside him. For some reason, he felt that everyone was very warm.

With trembling hands, Xu Wanghe called to Luo Luo, "Come here, let me take a closer look."

Luo Luo knelt on the ground, turned to look at Lin Wanxing, and Lin Wanxing said softly:

"Go ahead, you must call him Grandpa."

Luo Luo obediently got up and walked to Xu Wanghe. Xu Wanghe reached out and looked at Luo Luo's height, then stroked his cheek. He was deeply shocked but could not believe it. He turned to look at Xu Changle, who was already stunned. He slowly stepped forward, tears streaming down his face, and hugged Luo Luo in his arms.

"My brother... has a child! Ahhh!"

Hearing Xu Changle's affirmation, Xu Wanghe and Li Rongping burst into tears, and the family hugged Luoluo tightly.

Luo Luo was surrounded by a crowd, which was a bit cramped, especially by this uncle, who was pulling her so hard.

But it feels so warm.

A moment later, everyone released Luo Luo, and Xu Wanghe sat down, placed Luo Luo on his lap, held her gently, and looked at Lin Wanxing.

"Master Lin... no, Wanxing, please get up!"

Lin Wanxing stood up with red eyes, and Xu Changle quickly asked Zhou Xingyao to help her sit down.

Xu Wanghe then looked at Xu Changle with a solemn expression, which held a deeper meaning.

Xu Changle understood that his father was asking him to test her.

After pondering for a moment, he said directly:

"Sister-in-law, now that the Haoran Sect has expelled you and Luoluo from the sect, what should you do from now on?"

Lin Wanxing shook her head. "I don't know either. After learning the truth about Guan Yi, I thought about bringing Luo Luo back so that he could be recognized by his ancestors. Guan Yi... his greatest concern before he died was the Xu family..."

Xu Changle suppressed her tears, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said:

"Sister-in-law, to tell you the truth, back then... Lin Feizi participated in that great battle and ended up with all his meridians severed and his cultivation crippled. Seeing that he was going to die, he fled to Qingping Mountain Village. My Xu family took care of him for a few days. Before he died, he told us the truth about Guanyi!"

Lin Wanxing was stunned upon hearing this, and after a moment she suddenly stood up, looking at everyone in disbelief.

"What did you say?"

"I said we knew the truth ten years ago!"

Lin Wanxing shook her head repeatedly, a hint of resentment gradually rising in her eyes.

"So, in the ten years since you learned the truth, you've never thought about avenging Brother Guan?"

Xu Changle said with a cold look in his eyes, "Revenge? How can our Xu family take revenge? Fight the Haoran Sect to the death? Do we have that kind of strength? Besides, sister-in-law, as a member of the Lin family, it's one thing if you don't know about this matter, but why are you encouraging us to take revenge? Moreover, the other party is a member of your Lin family. Are you going to put righteousness before family?"

Lin Wanxing's eyes gradually became confused, as if a heavy stone was pressing down on her heart, making it hard to breathe, and tears kept flowing from her eyes.

She shed tears because of the Xu family's heartlessness and ingratitude.

She chuckled to herself, the scene of Guan Yi's death, as described by Lin Wan, flashing through her mind, and she felt it was a waste for Guan Yi.

Then, she bowed and said, "I was presumptuous. Now that you have seen Luo Luo, it is time for me to take her away."
