Before departing on his journey, Xuan made his way to his parents bedroom,carrying two carefully chosen treasures from his collection.
He wanted to leave something behind for his parents, knowing that the journey to the central region would be long and uncertain.
As he entered the room, he found his mother, Xue Lan, and his father, Xuan Tianyi, waiting with gentle smiles, proud but aware of the challenges he was about to face.
Xuan seriously said :"Mother, Father, before I go, I want to give you something."
His parents looked at each other, slightly surprised, but they waited for him to continue.
Xuan reaching into his storage ring "I have treasures from a recent adventure . I want you both to have something powerful to protect yourselfs."
He took out the first treasure, a beautifully crafted jade pendant, which radiated a calm, protective energy.
Xuan handing the pendant to Xue Lan said :"Mother, this pendant can shield you from powerful attacks. It will create a barrier around you if there's ever any danger."
Xue Lan softly, touched by his gesture and said :"Xuan, this is… thank you. This means so much to me."
Xuan said: "I want you to be safe, Mother. You and Father have always been there for me. This is my way of making sure you're protected."
Xuan then took out the second treasure, a golden armguard with intricate patterns, humming faintly with hidden power. He turned to his father, holding it out with respect.
Xuan handed the armguard to his father and said :"Father, this armguard enhances strength and defense. It's crafted to withstand strong forces and gives extra resilience in battles."
Xuan Tianyi accepted it with pride :"This is… incredible, Xuan. You've chosen well. I'll keep this with me as a reminder of your journey and of the strength you're gaining."
Xuan: "Please, both of you, keep these treasures close. They're strong enough to shield you if there's ever any threat. I want to know that you're safe while I'm away."
Xue Lan held the jade pendant close, her eyes filled with gratitude and love.
Xue Lan: "Xuan, you've grown so much. These treasures mean more to us than you know. We'll keep them safe, just as we've always kept you safe."
Xuan Tianyi placed a firm hand on his son's shoulder, pride clear in his gaze.
Xuan Tianyi: "You've given us great gifts, Xuan. And now, go forward without worry. We'll keep these treasures close and remember your dedication."
Xuan nodding, feeling reassured said: "Thank you. Knowing you both are safer gives me peace of mind. I'll focus on my journey and return as soon as possible."
