Chapter 157: A New Sister
Little Yao nodded, being very obedient at that moment. She approached Yun Yi without much ceremony, perhaps she did not understand what ceremonies were, and simply looked up with her big, shiny black eyes at Yun Yi, “Big brother, thank you.”
A simple word from the big brother made Yun Yi’s heart flutter.
He had been lonely since childhood, with no siblings. Yun Feilong was the only child. In his early years, he had no playmates and had to silently endure the bullying from the rich kids in the Imperial Capital.
Yun Yi often thought about how wonderful it would be to have a sibling, at least someone to share his joys and sorrows with, and at least he wouldn’t feel so lonely.
Yun Yi vowed that the beautiful eyes in front of him were the cleanest he had ever seen, pure and spotless.
There was no greed, no desire, no conflict, just pure simplicity.
Yun Yi suddenly felt that having such a simple-minded sister would also be an incredibly happy thing.
Yun Yi didn’t say anything; he just reached out and gently pinched the little girl’s nose.
“Ouch! Big brother, you pinched Little Yao!”
Little Yao wrinkled her nose. What started as gratitude quickly turned into anger. Her angry expression was also incredibly cute, making everyone burst into laughter.
“Hey there, little girl, why don’t you thank me? Without me, you would be dead.”
Black Wind stood on Yun Yi’s shoulder and said with great displeasure, feeling that his enormous contribution was being overlooked.
“Haha, a little kitten dares to call me king; how shameless.”
Little Yao couldn’t help but laugh, and her words made Black Wind fall off Yun Yi’s shoulder again, almost causing him to spit out blood.
Haha…
Yun Yi laughed heartily, rarely seeing Black Wind in such a predicament.
“Brother Yun, I have a favor to ask.”
Hu Quan suddenly became serious and spoke to Yun Yi.
“Feel free to speak, my brother.”
Yun Yi said.
“Brother Yun, Little Yao has been with me for four years. I have always treated her like my own granddaughter. I thought that since Little Yao couldn’t Open Spirit, she could just live a simple life with me, a normal life, as long as she was happy. But unexpectedly, Little Yao has a rare Xuan Spirit Cold Body, and now she has even reached the second grade of the Innate Realm. Her future is bright. If she stays with me, it will only delay her. I want to ask Brother Yun to take Little Yao to the Yanwu family. With Little Yao’s abilities, joining the Yanwu family should not be a problem.”
Hu Quan said, showing great care for Little Yao. Though he was reluctant to let the little girl leave, after learning about Little Yao’s Xuan Spirit Cold Body, he felt that he could not hold her back from her future.
If we talk about the entire Xuanzhou State, the Yanwu family is undoubtedly the best place to go, and there happens to be a great opportunity right now.
Little Yao is naturally innocent, and with Yun Yi, Hu Quan feels very at ease. He already knows Yun Yi’s character and can see that he cares for Little Yao.
“Yes, with Little Yao’s talent and abilities, the Yanwu family will certainly want her. Just rest assured, Brother, Little Yao will stay with me from now on. I will treat her like my own little sister.”
Without hesitation, Yun Yi agreed right away. In fact, even if Hu Quan hadn’t said anything, he had the same thought and was just troubled about how to bring it up.
A genius like Little Yao, staying with Hu Quan could be a risk of being overlooked. After all, having a Xuan Spirit Cold Body is something that cannot be hidden anywhere, but going to the Yanwu family would definitely be much better.
Hearing Yun Yi’s words, Hu Quan was overjoyed; this was exactly the result he wanted. In his eyes, if Little Yao could accept Yun Yi as her brother, it would be a blessing for her.
“That’s wonderful, Little Yao! From now on, you have an older brother. Are you happy?”
Hu Quan asked.
“Yes, the big brother is so handsome and has saved Little Yao’s life twice. Little Yao is very grateful! Little Yao was just a bullied little beggar with no family and didn’t know where I came from. My grandpa took me in, and now, Little Yao not only has a grandpa but also an older brother. Little Yao is no longer that lonely little beggar without anyone to love her.”
Little Yao nodded heavily and said to Yun Yi very seriously.
The little girl had a pure heart; she could tell good from bad. She knew who was kind to her in this world and felt grateful. Whether it was Hu Quan or Yun Yi, they were both her lifesavers, and she always kept them in her heart.
She had known Yun Yi for a short time; they were just beginning to get to know each other. But Little Yao always remembered the scene of Yun Yi battling the demon sword, as well as the kindness he showed in helping her with Xuan Spirit Cold Body.
In the heart of this twelve-year-old girl, from this moment on, Hu Quan and Yun Yi had already become the two most important people in her life.
It was a feeling that belonged to Xia Xiaoyao herself. She knew that she, Xia Xiaoyao, would cherish this feeling for a lifetime.
Hu Quan and Yun Yi didn’t know that they had already planted a seed in the little girl’s heart, and it had already taken root and begun to grow.
The serious words from Little Yao made Hu Quan’s eyes fill with tears.
Yun Yi didn’t say much; he just reached out to pat the little girl’s head; one word of “big brother” was enough.
Early the next morning, Yun Yi said goodbye to Hu Quan and Hong Liang; with the matters of Jade Wheel City finished, it was time for Yun Yi to go back and report.
On this return, besides reporting to the young lady, Yun Yi had one more important task to do.
That is to settle accounts.
“Little Yao, when you get to the Yanwu family, you must listen to your big brother.”
Hu Quan advised.
“Don’t worry, Grandpa, Little Yao will come back to Xuan City to see you.”
Little Yao waved her hand at Hu Quan.
“Young Master Yun, in the future, if you’re free, come to Jade Wheel City and relax. When you are here, consider it your home.”
Hong Liang said to Yun Yi.
Fang Yanshan and Guo Haifeng also came along to see him off. Outside Jade Wheel City, there was a huge crowd. The girls whom Yun Yi had previously saved also came. The people of Jade Wheel City didn’t know how to repay Yun Yi’s great kindness, so they could only see him off outside the city.
Yun Yi flicked his long sleeves, and with Little Yao, he leaped onto Black Wind’s broad back. Black Wind flapped its wings and flew into the sky, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Looking at the place where Yun Yi had vanished, Hong Liang said, “Brother Fang, Brother Guo, the clear skies of Jade Wheel City are all thanks to Young Master Yun. I plan to create a statue for Young Master Yun, standing in the center square of Jade Wheel City, for future generations to admire. I wonder what you both think about this?”
“That’s only right; I had the same idea. Young Master Yun has greatly helped Jade Wheel City and deserves to be admired by future generations.”
Fang Yanshan nodded and said.
“That’s right. Young Master Yun saved us without asking for anything in return, and we cannot just stand by. We should work together from our three families to create the statue.”
Guo Haifeng said.
