"Hey—Shi San, long time no see!" Gu Feng's thoughts stirred, and he and Hua Wenyue appeared outside in a flash.
"Gu Feng!!!!" The sight of an enemy made Thirteenth Young Master's eyes burn with rage. His face twisted like a bloodthirsty beast, his entire body bristling with fury.
However, he didn't act rashly. Instead, he trembled and asked, "Where is my sister?"
"She's still asleep. She was too exhausted last night and is resting in bed!" Gu Feng smirked, savoring the memory.
"Virgin boy," Hua Wenyue muttered disdainfully from the side, nearly causing Gu Feng to lose his composure again. He shot her a fierce glare.
"You... what have you done to my sister!!" Thirteenth Young Master's veins on his forehead were about to burst from anger.
"How should I put it? You're just a kid—you wouldn't understand," Gu Feng teased.
"I—" Thirteenth Young Master was driven to madness. His fingers clenched tightly, nails digging deep into his palms, and drops of crimson blood fell into the sea, attracting a swarm of mindless Sea Demons.
"I want to see my sister!" Despite his rage, he managed to restrain himself, insisting on seeing Long Xun'er.
Gu Feng was puzzled and exchanged a glance with Hua Wenyue, who was equally confused.
A figure materialized as Gu Feng summoned Long Xun'er. The moment she saw her younger brother, tears streamed down her face.
"Shi San!! You... how did you get here?" Long Xun'er's voice trembled as she spoke.
"Sister—" Seeing his sister's haggard appearance, Thirteenth Young Master couldn't hold back his sobs.
The siblings wept bitterly, their cries echoing mournfully across the distance.
Gu Feng couldn't take it anymore. "Hey, if you have something to say, say it! Stop crying!"
Wailing and sobbing continued unabated. Seeing that the two were completely ignoring him, Gu Feng's thoughts stirred, and he activated the 'Mother Seal' in his Sea of Consciousness. Hua Wenyue, standing beside him, wisely chose not to intervene.
"Ah————"
A piercing scream erupted as Long Xun'er's face contorted in agony, her body writhing in mid-air.
"Sister... sister, no! Gu Feng, I beg you, don't torture my sister!" Thirteenth Young Master cried out, wanting to rush forward but fearing Gu Feng might kill her. He could only stay where he was, pleading with Gu Feng.
Seeing that Gu Feng remained unmoved, Thirteenth Young Master suddenly dropped to his knees in mid-air, his head bowed low.
"Please... don't torture my sister—"
"Shi... Shi San, get... get up. Leave! You carry... carry the hope of our lineage... you... must not lower your proud head... stand up... turn around... leave..."
Seeing her brother humiliated, Long Xun'er summoned an astonishing willpower. Even though her body trembled uncontrollably and blood seeped from her wounds, she gritted her teeth and stood up.
"You... see, it's not so bad. Sister isn't in pain..." She forced a smile that was uglier than a cry.
"Sister... our lineage is gone. I'm the only one left!" Thirteenth Young Master wailed.
"End the torment," Hua Wenyue said softly, unable to bear it any longer.
Gu Feng's thoughts stirred again, and Long Xun'er's screams ceased abruptly. She collapsed like a limp rag, utterly drained of strength.
"Shi San, thinking you can save your sister alone is nothing but a delusion. Even if you could, what then?" Gu Feng's cold voice rang out.
Hearing this, the Thirteenth Young Master's eyes turned bloodthirsty, but he quickly regained his composure and lowered his head. "Release my sister, and I will take her place as your mount!"
"Ha—what a joke! In terms of bloodline, you are far inferior to your sister; in terms of strength, you are leagues behind. Moreover, your sister has dual functions as a mount, usable day and night. Why would I trade her for you?" Gu Feng crossed his arms and sneered, while Hua Wenyue, standing beside him, frowned deeply and glared at him.
"You—" The Thirteenth Young Master clenched his teeth, the sound of grinding audible. He wanted to lash out but didn't dare. "I beg you!!!"
Thud thud thud—
As he spoke, he kowtowed fiercely in the air.
"Absolutely not!" Gu Feng mercilessly refused.
"Shi... Shi San, what did you mean earlier when you said our lineage is now left with only you?" At this moment, Long Xun'er, who had somewhat recovered, lay in the air, lifting her head to ask.
"Wuwuwu—" Before he could speak, tears streamed down his face, and the Thirteenth Young Master let out a mournful cry.
"Sister, on that day, the Dragon Emperor and the Clan Elders were humiliated, countless Heaven's Chosen perished, the Treasure Vault and the Spirit Herb Garden were nearly destroyed... The East Sea Dragon Clan suffered heavy losses...
The Dragon Emperor was furious, the Clan Elders were enraged, and the clansmen went mad, placing all the blame on you... They said that if you had warned them earlier, such a tragic outcome might have been avoided.
Our lineage was implicated, and everyone was executed. I barely escaped under the protection of our elders, using a Space-Breaking Talisman. It was only through the bloodline connection that I managed to find my way here... Wuwuwu!
Sister, you have been exiled from the East Sea Dragon Clan. The Dragon Emperor has ordered all subordinate races to kill you on sight!"
"Ah!!!"
"Why? Why did the Dragon Emperor kill my clansmen... Why was I exiled... I—" Images of familiar faces flashed through Long Xun'er's mind, her heart wrenching in pain. Her mournful cries echoed through the heavens.
Listening to the siblings' wails, Gu Feng sighed helplessly. He hadn't expected the Dragon Emperor to be so ruthless, wiping out Long Xun'er's entire lineage.
"Shi San, you and I have shared drinks a few times, and you even affectionately called me 'brother-in-law,' though it was insincere. But that doesn't matter.
I'll give you a chance. Let me plant the 'Mother Slave Seal' on you, and you can stay by my side to accompany your sister!" Though he felt helpless, Gu Feng's desire to subdue Shi San remained unchanged.
"You demon... Shi San, run... Don't worry about me. Leave the East Sea, find a place where no one knows you, cultivate in peace, and avenge our clansmen in the future—" With a surge of strength from who knows where, she lunged at Gu Feng, screaming.
Despite Gu Feng activating the 'Mother Seal,' even though she couldn't stand, he couldn't stop Long Xun'er's actions.
She was like a madwoman, howling as she pounced, using all her strength to cling to his leg. "Run!"
"Wuwuwu—don't hurt my sister, I beg you. I am willing to accept the 'Mother Slave Seal,' but you must swear not to torment my sister anymore, nor kill her..." Shi San cried as he ran over, kneeling before Gu Feng and kowtowing frantically.
"Ah!!!!"
On one side, there were screams; on the other, mournful wails!
The heavens and earth seemed to mourn at this moment.
"Fine, but if Long Xun'er harbors any intent to kill me, harm me, or attempts suicide, the 'Mother Slave Seal' will automatically activate. In such cases, I will not help her suppress the torment!" Gu Feng pondered for a moment before speaking in a deep voice.
"Alright, please place the 'Mother Slave Seal' on me!" Shi San declared resolutely.
What was expected to be a tumultuous event turned out to be surprisingly smooth.
"Shi San!! Why are you so foolish!" Long Xun'er hugged the Thirteenth Young Master, weeping bitterly.
"Sister is my only family in this world. I am willing to do anything to stay by her side!
You must not seek death anymore. You must live on bravely and demand justice from the Dragon Emperor!" Having experienced a drastic turn of fate, falling from the clouds into the abyss, Shi San had matured overnight and began to comfort his sister.
In a daze, Gu Feng seemed to see a young dragon undergoing a transformation, its future boundless.
"The Dragon Clan is proud. What is this sniveling behavior!" Gu Feng scolded. Shi San pulled Long Xun'er to her feet, and they stood with their heads bowed.
"As long as you harbor no ill intentions, you will live well!"
"Shi San, like your sister, retract the two horns on your head into your body. Do not reveal your identity as members of the Dragon Clan."
"The Dragon Emperor and I are mortal enemies. You will have your chance for revenge in the future."
"Alright, to celebrate the reunion of you siblings, Shi San, go catch some fish. We'll drink and feast to celebrate!" Gu Feng grinned. Shi San, no longer the same as before, showed not a trace of a smile, his face as expressionless as a poker card as he leapt into the sea.
"From now on, don't give me that sour face. If you don't want your brother to suffer, keep smiling!" Turning around, Gu Feng coldly said to Long Xun'er.
She shuddered. With her brother's life now in Gu Feng's hands, Long Xun'er dared not disobey any of his commands, forcing out a smile that was uglier than a cry.
"Not bad, even your crying and smiling are beautiful. You'll improve over time!" Gu Feng grinned, satisfied, and stroked Long Xun'er's smooth chin.
Hua Wenyue, standing to the side, was utterly bewildered. To place a slave seal on someone and then force them to smile—it was more demonic than a demon!
"Cheers!"
"To celebrate a long-awaited reunion."
"Shi San, don't bother smiling. Keep that poker face, the kind that keeps strangers at bay."
A flash of purple light swept across, stirring up towering waves on the sea.
Hua Wenyue piloted the Violet Starlight Sky-Piercing Disc, navigating away from the territories of the Sea Demons, heading towards the Great Chu Dynasty.
In his spare time, Gu Feng mostly stayed in his room, studying Weapon Crafting.
Occasionally, he would summon Long Xun'er to massage, sing, or dance for him.
It must be said, Long Xun'er's voice and figure were nearly perfect, offering an imperial level of enjoyment.
As for Shi San, he maintained his poker face all day. Gu Feng didn't speak to him, and he wouldn't utter a word, standing behind Gu Feng like a wooden stake.
Fearful that Gu Feng might have his sister serve him in bed, Shi San dared not slack off for a moment. Though he knew it was futile, he stubbornly stood guard.
"You're quite at ease!" Hua Wenyue approached, glaring at Gu Feng.
"Why have we stopped?" Feeling the Violet Starlight Sky-Piercing Disc come to a halt, Gu Feng asked in confusion.
"At this point, the map doesn't have any markings, so I can't determine the exact direction of the Great Chu Dynasty," Hua Wenyue said, tossing the animal skin map to Gu Feng. He took a look and furrowed his brow.
After a moment, he spoke up, "Never mind, anyway, there's land ahead. It definitely won't be beyond the territories of the Great Wei, Great Chu, and Great Li. Once we land, we'll figure out a way to return to Great Chu."
By this point, the presence of the Sea Demons had almost completely disappeared.
Activating the Immortal Eye. Void Break, Gu Feng gazed across tens of thousands of miles of sea. The moment he saw land, he shouted, "Hahaha, we've arrived!"
After a full five years, seeing familiar land again, Gu Feng was visibly excited, and Hua Wenyue was also stirred.
"Everyone, are you all doing well?
I, Gu Feng, have returned!!!"
"Xun'er, transform into a dragon and let me ride you to the land!"
Along the way, fearing exposure of their identities, their mounts had grown rusty. Taking advantage of the desolate sea, Gu Feng felt he had to experience this.
"Roar—, ride me!" the Thirteenth Young Master bellowed!
"Get lost, who wants to ride you? Long Xun'er, your brother..." Gu Feng curled his lip and threatened.
Roar—
A Female Dragon appeared, stretching hundreds of meters long, with pale green scales emitting a strange luster. Dao essence also emanated from her mouth, majestic yet beautiful.
Gu Feng chuckled, leaped onto the dragon's back, and rode through the clouds against the wind, "Charge!!!!"
