Brother Hua, open your eyes!

Xu Yunfeng didn't know whether he was stunned by the blue light or dizzy from being shaken.

He had been burned countless times, yet he still dared to shout and yell in the "Immortal Wutong Water Pavilion," disturbing Brother Yi's enjoyment.

"Xianwu Waterside Pavilion" does not refer to a real wutong tree planted there, nor is it a real waterside pavilion.

The reason for choosing this name was mainly to surpass "Qingsongju" (Green Pine Residence), and also because Yi Ge (Brother Yi) loves water.

"Feng, what's gotten into you like this?"

Xu Yunyi in the hall did not get up, but remained lying comfortably with his eyes closed, letting a pair of soft, boneless hands gently massage his temples.

Upon hearing his brother's question, Xu Yunfeng replied, "Brother, it's Lao Ba. Lao Ba is back."

"Oh, he actually came back alive?"

Xu Yunyi was slightly surprised. He raised his hand and gestured for those delicate hands to gently pull him up a little, so that his head could rest in a soft place.

Xu Yunyi twisted his head, shifting to a more comfortable position, and said, "Just a piece of trash sent to the 'Thousand Lakes Wasteland,' how did he manage to come back alive?"

Then, remembering something, he pressed on, "Where is Lao Ba's old servant?"

Xu Yunfeng said, "I didn't see the old servant, it's the eighth brother..."

"Hahaha, Feng, if you ask me, this Old Eight was probably saved by his old servant risking his life! Hahaha!"

Xu Yunfeng was interrupted by Yi Ge before he could finish speaking, so he could only wait for Yi Ge to finish laughing before continuing.

"Brother Yi, Brother Yi, Eighth Brother brought a woman with him. She's very powerful. Brother Feng, Brother Feng, he couldn't withstand a single move from her..."

Xu Yunfeng didn't want to portray himself in a bad light, so he changed "didn't catch a single move" to "couldn't catch a single move".

"Why?"

"A woman? What does she look like?"

Xu Yunyi didn't care at all and directly asked Xu Yunxin what the woman he brought back looked like.

"Brother Yi, that woman was wearing a veil, Brother Feng couldn't see her clearly."

Xu Yunfeng answered honestly.

"However, she has a great figure, definitely the type you like, Brother Yi!"

"Hmm~"

Xu Yunyi, sitting in the hall, let out a soft "hmm," gently lifting his head to look down at Xu Yunfeng, who was lying on the ground with his buttocks sticking up high, and chuckled softly.

He seemed quite satisfied with Xu Yunfeng's performance, speaking in a very gentle and soothing voice.

"Feng, I was a little too rough with you just now. Go down and get five spirit stones from Old Donkey as an apology."

Xu Yunfeng was overjoyed and quickly stuck his buttocks out even higher, loudly replying, "Thank you for the reward, Brother Yi!"

"Alright, if it's nothing, you can go now."

Xu Yunyi waved his hand, intending to send Xu Yunfeng away, but then frowned and said, "Brother Feng, there's something I need you to do for me."

After sending Xu Yunfeng away, Xu Yunyi closed his eyes, tapped his fingers lightly on his round, slightly bouncy thigh, and said casually.

"Why is that old man so annoying, like a fly?"

The empty hall was silent; no one answered his question, nor did he need an answer.

Xu Yunyi reached out and patted the cheek of the maid behind him, then suddenly stood up and strode out of the "Xianwu Water Pavilion".

Xu Yunxin had many important matters to attend to upon his return, and in order to get things done as quickly as possible, his first priority was to find the clan leader, Xu Shimao.

As the head of the Xu clan, Xu Shimao had always lived a secluded life in the "Fuze Pavilion" outside the ancestral hall on the top of Huagou Mountain.

There is only one road to "Fuze Pavilion". Following this road upwards, one must pass through the main building complex of the Xu family.

It was nearly noon when Xu Yunxin led a female cultivator with a light veil covering her face upwards, naturally attracting a lot of attention.

Zengcai, from the second branch of the family, was on his way to get some talismans for his young master when he saw Xu Yunxin walking uphill. His eyes darted around, and he turned around and quickly walked back towards the second branch.

The other servants watched Xu Yunxin from a distance, whispering among themselves.

"Is this the Eighth Young Master? Wasn't he exiled to the border town?"

"Yes, he's the only son of the eighth branch of the illegitimate family!"

"Who is the woman who is with him?"

"Stop asking questions, look, the young master is here!"

The servants who had been observing Xu Yunxin from afar immediately fell silent, going about their business as usual, but everyone's movements involuntarily slowed down.

"Yo!"

"Who do we have here? It's just that Eighth Brother is back!"

Xu Yunyi, dressed in a gold-embroidered white robe, led several followers dressed in black robes down the mountain path, blocking the way up the mountain.

While Xu Yunyi was greeting Xu Yunxin, his eyes were fixed intently on Yue Shaohua behind Xu Yunxin, as if they were hooks.

Xu Yunxin stepped to the side, completely blocking Yue Shaohua.

"Eighth Brother, not to be rude as the eldest brother, but why do you bring just anyone home?"

"What's this woman's background? Is her family clean?"

"Could it be a cultivator who has undergone a calamity?"

Seeing that Xu Yunxin didn't speak and was blocking the woman he wanted to see, Xu Yunyi's lips curled up slightly, and he spoke the most vicious words in a light and airy tone.

"You are the one who has undergone tribulation!"

Yue Shaohua, being with Xu Yunxin, was naturally unafraid and immediately retorted upon hearing this.

Upon hearing Yue Shaohua's voice, Xu Yunyi's eyes lit up slightly, and he nodded inwardly, but said aloud, "Whether he is a Tribulation Cultivator or not is not for you to decide."

"Let's go, Eighth Brother, come with me to the Hall of Ceremonies first, let's get this straight!"

The so-called Jietang was actually the law enforcement hall of the Xu family for handling disputes and punishing clansmen, and the person in charge of Jietang was Xu Tiantai, the eldest son of the Xu family and Xu Yunyi's father.

As he spoke, Xu Yunyi waved his hand, and the four followers behind him quickly stepped forward, the two in the lead calling out.

"Eighth Young Master, please make this trip."

He took out two white ropes, activated his spiritual power and they transformed into two beams of white light, which he then used to loop around Xu Yunxin's arms and neck.

Xu Yunyi stood brazenly behind him, staring intently at Xu Yunxin, looking like he was enjoying a good show.

......

On the other side, Zengcai quickly ran back to "Qingsongju", gently knocked on the courtyard gate of the quiet room, and only after receiving permission from his young master did he push the door open and go in.

"Did you retrieve it?"

When Zengcai entered the room, Xu Yunhua, who was bent over his desk, did not even look up, still holding a green jade pen and writing and drawing.

Zengcai quickly stepped forward and whispered, "Young Master, Young Master Yunxin from the Eighth Branch has returned!"

"Um?"

Zeng Cai's simple words caused Xu Yunhua's steady fingers to suddenly tremble, causing the jade pen in his hand to veer off course and ruin a beautiful copybook.

Seeing that his young master, who never made a mistake when copying calligraphy, had made a mistake, Zengcai immediately understood what was going on and continued, "Young master, I also saw that the eldest son, Yunyi, led people to stop the eighth young master."

Xu Yunhua took a deep breath, handed the jade pen in his hand to Zengcai, turned around and left the quiet room, walking quickly towards the courtyard.

As soon as Xu Yunhua stepped out of the courtyard, Xu Yunfeng led four or five disciples from the collateral branches to surround him.

Xu Yunfeng smiled broadly: "Brother Hua, I've just caught a rare creature, but I can't identify it. I'd like to ask you for your expertise!"

"Brother Hua, open your eyes!"

Several of Xu Yunfeng's illegitimate sons also joined in the commotion.
