During Ye Nantian’s stay, Song Jue’s authority in Song Clan was rising rapidly! Everybody of the older generation taught the younger ones, “Listen, kids! You must learn from your Uncle Song Jue! Look at him! Look at his sworn brother! The only conquerer of Oracle District!”
“You must be loyal! When you become a friend of somebody, you must stay loyal to him… When Ye Nantian fell to the bottom of his life, Uncle Song Jue supported him with all his heart! Otherwise, how would they end up so close to each other?”
“Heaven’s nature blesses the kindness.”
The two men were both sentimental when they finally met again.
“Brother… Now you have finally gotten through all the misery and start to live the enjoyable part of your life with wealth and beauty.” Song Jue laughed loudly and sincerely said, “Where is the little prick, Ye Xiao? Why isn’t he here? I haven’t seen the little fool for quite some time!”
“He must be at home. I went to get his mother home, but didn’t bring him with me.” Ye Nantian smiled.
“Brother, I am being honest with you. That cunning thing must be well disciplined!” Song Jue laughed again. He seemed to complain, but in fact was praising, said, “He is still young, but already more scheming than many older people… Experienced cultivator like me can barely be a match to him… He is much stronger than me even in cultivation now. Ah. I am old. I got to admit it…”
He looked consoled while speaking. With a few words, he called Ye Xiao several different appellations. That was typical Song Jue!
Yue Gongxue was thrilled listening to Song Jue’s comments, and her eyes were lighting up.
She loved to listen to the compliments of her son. Song Jue was definitely the one who would praise Ye Xiao the most.
“Brother Song, you are over thinking. If you are old, I must be half step into my grave. We are in our best ages, brother. We have to live the good days together, side by side for the rest of our lives. Men should stand straight up in the world. It would be such a waste not to build our legacy before we die. We must leave something for people to memorize us with.” Ye Nantian said.
All those who sat around them were the elders of Song Clan.
They had been listening to the conversation between Song Jue and Ye Nantian. When they heard what Ye Nantian said about living the life with Song Jue side by side, they all took a breath of relief.
[That is it!]
[Ye Nantian is not an ungrateful man!]
[Brothers forever! Never betray brothers! Share honor with brothers!]
“Brother, please. You and me, we are forever brothers! Just like the old days in Han-Yang!” Song Jue laughed and drank up the liquor, “Wherever you want me to go, I will go with my sword! Ye Clan and Song Clan united because of our brotherhood! That is all that matters!”
“Good! That’s right! Only brotherhood! Nothing else matters!” Ye Nantian laughed.
That night, Ye Nantian and Song Jue were both stewed.
They hadn’t met for such a long time, so they surely had to drink as much as they liked! How could they not get drunk!
Yue Gongxue didn’t even think of stopping them, because she felt grateful for Song Jue. In fact, she even proposed a toast to Song Jue several times to show her appreciation. She knew that this man had been staying on her husband’s side with loyalty!
In the toughest days of her husband, Song Jue was there supporting him!
If not for Song Jue, Ye Nantian would have succeeded!
[I should let my husband drink as much as he likes. After all, he is enjoying the moment with his brother!]
[I am happy to take care of him after he is drunk! I don’t mind if he gets drunk several more time! I would love to take care of him!]
[As long as it doesn’t hurt him to drink, he is free!] [1]
When Ye Nantian came to Song Clan, he just wanted to pay a visit to and had a few drinks with Song Jue. After all, Yue Gongxue must be yearning for the reunion with their son. He still had a long time ahead to drink with Song Jue after all. When Song Jue invited him to drink, he seemed hesitating. Yue Gongxue was pretty understanding, so she said, “Our son is at home. He is not going anywhere. We don’t need to rush! You brothers haven’t met each other for quite a while. I am ok if you want to spend a night here. You must have a lot to talk to Brother Song. Besides, I think I should propose a toast to Brother Song to show my gratitude…”
When they were drinking and eating, Yue Gongxue had toasted Song Jue many times, and Song Jue surely refused none… While she drank with Song Jue, she kept asking him things about Ye Xiao. That was how Song Jue told her a lot about Ye Xiao…
Yue Gongxue was spirited by all the stories about Ye Xiao… She couldn’t stop asking for more…
Song Jue eventually couldn’t bear speaking of Ye Xiao for a whole night in the end.
“Brother… What did Ye Xiao do to fool around those kids? Could you repeat it?” Yue Gongxue was interested.
“My lady… I have said it four times…” Song Jue was a bit awkward.
He knew he was never going to get away, so he tried everything he could to get himself stewed. That was the only way to escape Yue Gongxue’s question attacks…
After the men were drunk, they had to spend the night in Song Clan.
They had no idea that during the night when they stayed in Song Jue’s, Ye Xiao was killing around the Town of Ye.
It was a complicated story. The two great sects had sent their people to the Town of Ye, all ordinary cultivators. They must know there were no superior cultivators in the Town of Ye, so they decided not to send out their best forces. However, they were wrong.
Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian, who had left the Town of Ye had actually returned.
They decided to stay in the Town of Ye.
The best among the people of the two sects was a level seven of Dao Origin Stage cultivator. It should be powerful enough to deal with people of Ye Clan. It should be easy even to wipe the entire clan out. However, Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian weren’t some normal cultivators. Although they hadn’t entered level nine of Dao Origin Stage for long, they were still both top-level cultivators in the realm!
The men from the two sects saw the two domineering men, so they were scared. They started to try to think of another way to get their job done! What could they do?
After thinking for some time, they decided to hide around the Town of Ye.
They thought that Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian wouldn’t stay in the Ye Clan forever. As long as they were gone, the cultivators would show up and kill the Ye Clan easily!
They decided to wait.
Besides, the men from the two sects were here to kill Ye Nantian, Yue Gongxue, and Ye Xiao. It was not enough to slaughter all the others without getting those three killed. Ye Nantian was not in the Town of Ye yet, and Ye Xiao had left the clan too. The cultivators decided to wait for the three of them to return.
People from the two sects were hiding around the Town of Ye, hoping Zhan Yunfei and Zhu Jiutian to leave, and trying to get more information about Ye Nantian and Yue Gongxue!
