Chapter 113: Chapter 113: The Day of Reunion

Shi Feng reunited with Bai Yue’e, spending the entire day by her side. Shi Feng noticed that his mother’s mood had greatly improved now that her health had recovered.

Throughout the day, his mother never mentioned that beast Shi Jintian, and Shi Feng was even less likely to bring him up. Better to act as if that beast were dead, so his mother would never have to see him again, even if one day Shi Feng really did kill that beast, he wouldn’t tell his mother, to avoid bringing up that beast and making his mother sad again.

As for Shi Ling, Shi Feng reassured his mother not to worry. Ling’er had been taken under the wing of a master and would surely return once her training was complete.

After the recent time spent fighting and toiling, having his mother’s company today, under the warmth of their affection, Shi Feng felt his entire being soothed and flowing smoothly.

The day quickly passed, and dusk fell. At the center of the extravagant and luxurious house, a Luminous Pearl as big as a fist was embedded, brightly illuminating the entire room.

At the dining table, a lavish meal was already laid out. All these dishes had been busily prepared by his mother that afternoon just for him, and now, Shi Feng realized that his mother could also make such luxurious and elegant dishes, and they looked so appealing.

"Feeng’er, your mother hasn’t cooked these dishes in many years, and you also haven’t eaten the meals made by your mother in many years. Try them and see if they suit your taste," Bai Yue’e said with a loving smile, looking at her son who was ready to eat across the table.

After Bai Yue’e finished speaking, she turned to Qing’er, who was standing by the side, and said, "Qing’er, come sit down and eat with us."

"Ah, Lady, how could I? I am merely a servant," Qing’er quickly waved her hands.

"What servant or not servant, aren’t we all family after all? Come on, if I tell you to sit, just sit," Bai Yue’e said with a dissatisfied expression.

Hearing the words ’all family after all’, Qing’er’s heart bloomed with joy. She sneaked a glance at Shi Feng and whispered very faintly, "Then... then Qing’er will..."

"Alright, I told you to sit, so just sit," Bai Yue’e pulled Qing’er by the hand, making her sit between herself and Shi Feng, and scooped a bowl of rice for her.

Shi Feng didn’t pay much attention to what Bai Yue’e said about being a family. He picked up a piece of meat with his chopsticks, put it in his mouth, and slowly chewed. Bai Yue’e kept smiling, watching her son’s expression, waiting to see the changes on his face.

It had been so many years since she had sat and watched her son eat like this. Thinking back to when he was so small, and now he had grown so big.

"Mother, the dish you made is really delicious," Shi Feng complimented Bai Yue’e.

Hearing her son’s words was as sweet as honey to Bai Yue’e’s ears. She smiled and said, "If it’s delicious, eat more. Now that my health has improved, I can make it for you every day."

"Mother, you eat too," Shi Feng said.

"Mmm," Bai Yue’e smiled and nodded her head, then picked up her bowl and chopsticks, turning to the still somewhat shy Qing’er, "Qing’er, don’t just stand there, hurry up and eat. The food will taste worse once it cools."

"Ah, yes, Lady," Qing’er carefully picked up her chopsticks, cautiously reaching for the dishes on the table.

"You are Qing’er, right? I appreciate you taking care of my mother during this time," Shi Feng said to Qing’er.

"Ah, it’s what I should do," Qing’er quickly replied. She didn’t know why, but she felt nervous now seeing this man, and even more so hearing him speak to her. After speaking, she even repeated her own words in her mind to check if anything was wrong or inappropriate.

Then she thought, didn’t the Lady say we will be a family from now on? Taking care of my mother-in-law... isn’t that what I should do?

What... what am I even thinking?

Qing’er realized her face had once again turned beet red.

"Mmm, what a wonderful aroma, it seems I arrived just in time," a young voice suddenly rang out in the room.

"Ah, Master," Qing’er gasped in surprise, seeing Long Chen at the doorway dressed in purple and lightly waving a paper fan and hurriedly trying to stand from her stool.

Long Chen waved his hand at Qing’er and said, "Lady and Young Master Feng told you to sit, so you sit. From now on in this mansion, you only listen to Lady and Young Master Feng."

"Yes," Qing’er replied softly, sitting back down cautiously.

"Young Master Long hasn’t eaten yet, right? Come join us," Bai Yue’e said, then added a bowl and chopsticks for Long Chen and served him some rice.

"Then I won’t hold back," Long Chen said with a smile, nodding and walking to the dining table.

"Young Master Long, during this time, we were really grateful for your care," Bai Yue’e said.

Long Chen responded, "Young Master Feng is like a brother to me, his mother is naturally my mother as well."

Shi Feng, who was nearby, didn’t say anything.

Then Long Chen said to Bai Yue’e, "I’ve been motherless since childhood. If Lady doesn’t mind, you can be my godmother from now."

Me? How could I possibly mind? Having such a powerful godson is a blessing I must have cultivated," Bai Yue’e replied. Bai Yue’e only knew Long Chen’s surname was Long and that he came from a wealthy and powerful family, unaware of his true identity.

"Godmother!" Long Chen affectionately called out. Now, Long Chen had pinned almost all his future hopes on Emperor Xiaoyao, wanting to ensure Shi Feng was securely tied to him to secure a pathway for the future.

And though this master was reckless, his potential was boundless. The first time he saw him in battle against One-star Martial Spirit Hai Batian, even though he defeated the opponent, his physical backlash from executing that powerful Martial Skill was evident.

Yet, a few days later, he was powerful enough to contend with the Yin Yang Double Strange and even killed those two old monsters.

Now, he was even able to kill Xue You, Lei Xiao, and Xueh Yiyi, all of whom were young geniuses. In the reports, Xue You’s Martial Arts Cultivation was even as a Three-star Martial King, and Lei Xiao and Xueh Yiyi’s battle power could match those in the Martial King Realm.

Though this master had offended almost every major Sect, that had nothing to do with him.

Shi Feng certainly understood Long Chen’s intentions, but as long as his mother was happy, that was enough for him. Besides, he would eventually have to leave this place for a broader horizon, and his mother and sister would need Long Chen’s care.

"Mm," Bai Yue’e happily acknowledged and then said to Long Chen, "Come, try your godmother’s cooking."

"Mm, sure," Long Chen elegantly picked up some dishes from the table, slowly chewed, and praised, "Mm, really delicious."

"If it’s delicious, come to eat here often," Bai Yue’e said.

"Mm, certainly," Long Chen quickly nodded and smiled, then turning to Qing’er, he added, "Qing’er, from now on, you have to obey everything from Young Master Feng, and absolutely follow everything he asks."

After finishing, Long Chen gave Shi Feng a meaningful look. This maid, he had selected the most spirited one from the mansion, and her age was just similar to Shi Feng’s.

"Yes," Qing’er softly acknowledged, having been in the mansion for many years, she well understood the implication of Long Chen’s words.

Qing’er turned her face slightly, stealing a glance at Shi Feng, her heart thumping wildly.
