Chapter 6: The Departure of Parents

Father, I understand now, Yu Xincheng replied

When Yu Xincheng finished reading the last sentence, tears had already drowned her entire face

Oh, thank you, you may go back first, I would like to be alone for a while. After Yu Xincheng finished speaking, he walked out without caring whether Li Fei would follow or not

"Alright, I wanted to come and play with you in the morning, but who would have thought that you..." After discussing how Li Fei managed to handle Yu Xincheng in the morning, it left him feeling utterly frustrated.

As dawn approached, Yu Xincheng awoke from his dream, recalling that his parents were to leave today. He quickly ran to his parents' room, but to his great disappointment, the room was tidy and clean, not even a fly could be seen, and there was no trace of his parents. Feeling helpless, he collapsed onto the floor, tears gradually streaming from the corners of his eyes, sobbing to himself, "Father, Mother, are you... cough." He choked on his own saliva and walked to the table, hoping to find some water to drink. As he reached for the water jug, he noticed an envelope on the table. Was this left by his parents? Yu Xincheng said upon seeing the envelope.

The night passed quietly like this

"Bi'er, don't worry, everything will be fine. Believe that we will get through this together," Yu Feng said reassuringly. In truth, he himself was not very confident; he said this merely to prevent his wife from worrying too much. With his current level of cultivation, he feared it would not be sufficient. Many who sought to overcome this trial often ended up sacrificing their lives in the process.

With tears in his eyes, he said: "Father, Mother, why, why is it like this, ah..." Unable to bear the shock, he fainted immediately.

Yu Xincheng was unaware that Li Fei was murmuring in his home. At this moment, he unknowingly walked into the grove again, going deeper and deeper. He did not understand what was happening, as if something was calling out to him. After walking for an hour, he had already ventured deep inside, and now the sky had completely darkened.

The next day, before dawn, Yu Feng and his wife set out on this perilous journey.

When he woke up, it was almost evening, yet he found himself in his own room. Wasn't he in his parents' room when he fainted? What was going on

Cheng Er, you must take good care of yourself. During this time when we are not here, you should read more books, as it will be beneficial for your future. We have not left you much, just the jade pendant we gave you yesterday. You must keep it safe and secure, without any mishaps. Do not flaunt it in front of others, as it may bring misfortune. Remember! Perhaps we will never be able to return.

Do not tell me these things, I do not want to know either, just tell me what I asked you earlier

It seems that there isn't any beautiful girl in our village, so how could you have such a dream? Alright, I don't want to discuss this with you. Yu Xincheng was not in the mood to deal with these matters and asked, "Xiao Fei, how did you end up here, and how did I find myself in my own room?"

After Yu Xincheng left, Yu Bi stepped out from the side. She did not want this kind of farewell. "Brother Feng, we still do not know if we can make it through this time. I am so worried about Cheng'er. If we really..." At this point, she could not continue. It was not that she did not want to speak; rather, the more she said, the more anxious and fearful she became.

Ah... how could his parents be so heartless as to abandon him? I really can't understand. Never mind, let's just leave him in peace; perhaps that will help him feel better. Li Fei expressed his discontent on behalf of Yu Xincheng, "Ah... it's almost dark, we should hurry home, or else my mother will start asking all sorts of questions."

The howl of the wolf woke Yu Xincheng. "How did I end up here?" The regret within him was profound. "What should I do now? The wolf will be here soon. No, I can't die here. I must leave."

Uh... I haven't even asked you yet, and you are already asking me. Do you know how much effort I put in to get you sorted out

Looking at his son, Yu Feng felt quite helpless. He was uncertain whether they could get through this situation; if they could not, he would never see his son again. Thinking of this, he said to Yu Xincheng: "Alright, Cheng'er, you should go rest. Your mother and I will be setting off tomorrow, so we need to turn in early."

Stepping outside, I saw a person dozing off there. I walked over and called out a few times to Li Fei. Hearing someone call him while still in his dream, Li Fei woke up. Upon seeing Yu Xincheng, he began to curse: "Xiao Cheng, you bastard, why did you wake me up? Don't you know I was having a spring dream?"
