"Good, good child." Feng Jingru looked affectionately at Nangong Yuqin. "Qinger, you two chat for a bit, and I'll go cook your favorite dishes!"
As she spoke, Feng Jingru beamed at Tan Feng, "Come and help me."
"Oh, sure!" Tan Feng smiled cheerfully.
"You all chat first," Old Master Tan said, "I'll go find Dantai brother for a chat!"
The Dantai brother he mentioned was Dantai Zhongkun, who was sent by Dantai Xuanzhong to protect the Tan family.
After Old Master Tan left, Mu Mengyi stepped forward, taking Nangong Yuqin's hand, and smiled warmly, "Sister, I've met you."
Zhong Wu Shiyao looked at Nangong Yuqin and softly said, "Sister, I've met you."
This word "sister" made Nangong Yuqin feel warmth.
Soon after, Nangong Yuqin, Mu Mengyi, and Zhong Wu Shiyao began to chat casually and quickly became close.
"There are already three sisters..." Xue Ziyan felt a sense of emptiness in her heart.
Huangfu Yu, with his back to Tan Yun, pouted slightly and thought, "He really is a sentimental person, and now there are already three..."
At this moment, Shen Subing seemed a bit lost in thought. After she noticed Tan Yun looking at her, she smiled slightly...
Before long, Feng Jingru prepared a sumptuous dinner. Old Master Tan, Tan Feng, Feng Jingru, Tan Yun, Nangong Yuqin, Mu Mengyi, and Zhong Wu Shiyao all sat around the table.
Feng Jingru kept serving Nangong Yuqin, telling her that these were all her favorites.
Aside from serving Nangong Yuqin, Feng Jingru also served Mu Mengyi and Zhong Wu Shiyao, completely neglecting Tan Yun, who smiled but said nothing.
Over the next half month, Feng Jingru, Tan Feng, and Old Master Tan worked to help Nangong Yuqin understand her experiences in the Tan Residence from infancy to the age of fifteen. They began to condense memories into visual images for her.
During this period, the Tan Residence's doors were closed and no guests were allowed.
Nangong Yuqin watched herself learning to walk and growing up through the memory images, seeing scenes where Feng Jingru, Tan Feng, and Old Master Tan took great care of her. She felt moved and grateful, unsure of what to say.
She was grateful to Feng Jingru for bringing little her back to the Tan Residence, and she was thankful to Feng Jingru for naming her Yuqin...
While the Tan family was filled with joy, in the distant Nangong Sacred Dynasty, several people were also having a cheerful conversation in the Nangong Sacred Hall!
On the left side of the brilliantly decorated hall sat Ru Yan Gao Xian and Ru Yan Wu Ji.
On the right side sat Zhuge Yu.
At the main seat in the hall sat a middle-aged couple. The man was tall and exuded an innate kingly presence; he was none other than the Nangong Holy Lord: Nangong Qingqian.
The woman, though dressed in women's attire, had not let the passage of years leave a mark on her beautiful face. She was naturally the well-known mother of Nangong Yuqin: Nangong Holy Mother Shiwanshuo.
Moreover, anyone who had seen Nangong Ruxue, Nangong Yuqin, and Shiwanshuo would notice that, despite being the daughters of the Holy Mother, they only had a slight resemblance.
Some even speculated in secret that Nangong Yuqin and Nangong Ruxue were not the Holy Mother’s biological daughters.
Of course, such talk was not dared to be discussed privately; it could only be quietly resented, for according to the laws of the Nangong Sacred Dynasty, the nine clans would be punished!
At this moment, Ru Yan Gao Xian’s expression turned serious, “Holy Lord, if our Eternal Immortal Sect and your Sacred Dynasty form a marriage alliance, in the future, after we destroy the Huangfu Sacred Sect, we can first divide their treasures among our three forces.”
“Secondly, your Sacred Dynasty can send some outstanding disciples to join our sect and the disciples of the Divine Soul Celestial Palace for trials in the Fallen God Canyon, Eternal Land, and Divine Soul Battlefield.”
“Thirdly, my grandson Ru Yan Chen will eventually inherit the position of the Eternal Immortal Sect’s sovereign, and from now on, we will be a family alliance. If any other Sacred Dynasties dare to provoke your Sacred Dynasty, our Eternal Immortal Sect will be the first to disagree!”
