The sunlight was warm and gentle, and a mild breeze ruffled the surface of the pond in the courtyard, creating ripples upon ripples.
Time passed in silence, minute by minute, second by second.
Under the scrutiny of those three watchful gazes, Xu Yuan felt a momentary urge to retreat back into his room and shut the door.
Although he knew he was absolutely safe now, that didn't mean he wouldn't get a beating.
After a moment of silence,
Xu Yuan braced himself, took a step forward, and with a strained smile, ventured tentatively,
"Father, what is this about?"
"...."
As his voice sounded, Xu Yinhè and Feng Jiuxuan exchanged glances, each seeing a sense of relief in the other's eyes.
As family members, sometimes a single glance could convey a great deal.
It was indeed Changtian who had awakened, not the creature from before.
Thinking this, Feng Jiuxuan took a step forward with a smile in his eyes, "Changtian...."
"Buzz!"
