It was difficult for Dugu Changfeng to accept the fact that he had a father out of thin air.
If he had known about this a few years earlier, his reaction would not have been so big.
Now he is about to be fifteen years old, and he is a boy who knows everything.
For many years, he has always regarded his father who died in war as an example in his mind.
He practiced hard day and night just to avenge his father.
But now others tell him that his father is not dead, which makes his years of persistence suddenly collapse.
Watching Changfeng and Qin Guichen running backwards out of the pagoda, the three of them suddenly fell into silence.
Ye Xiaochuan was very embarrassed when he saw the scene.
He smiled dryly and said: "You guys keep talking, leave me alone, I'm just a boring melon-eater."
As he spoke, he shook the big watermelon in his arms.
Yu Linglong said: "Xiaochuan, I want to talk to him alone."
Ye Xiaochuan nodded and said: "It's time to talk. Changfeng is my eldest disciple, and I don't want him to be wronged."
Yu Linglong said: "I mean, can you avoid it for a while?"
Ye Xiaochuan glanced around, then carried the watermelon to the edge of the Youquan Pagoda, took out a small mazaar, and continued to eat the big watermelon.
Yu Linglong was left speechless.
"Can you get out?"
"Ah? Do you want me to go out? Just tell me directly. If you beat around the bush, people won't understand."
"Now you understand, please go out and avoid it first!"
"No, I've been waiting for this big melon for fifteen years, and now you ask me to evade it. Doesn't this mean you're trying to kill me? Just treat me as if I don't exist..."
"go out!"
!.
After a while, Ye Xiaochuan walked out of the Zhongyouquan Pagoda dejectedly.
"Just go out, why don't you have a better attitude? What are you doing? You really have no quality..."
When I came out, I saw Qin's concubine comforting Dugu Changfeng.
"Uncle Ye! This isn't true! Is it?"
Seeing Dugu Changfeng's face bursting with tears, Ye Xiaochuan's complaints about Yu Linglong disappeared immediately.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Changfeng, you have grown up now, you are a man, you only bleed but don't shed tears.
Qingfeng Li is indeed your biological father. He has been hiding it from you all these years because of the identities of your parents.
You should know the grudges between Zhengdao and our Holy Religion, and don’t blame your mother. He is doing this to protect you, and you are also protecting your father."
"Uncle Ye!"
Dugu Changfeng was like a child who had not grown up, throwing himself into Ye Xiaochuan's arms and bursting into tears.
"Silly boy, you should be happy that your father is still alive. From now on, you have a father, right?"
The fifth floor of the pagoda.
After Ye Xiaochuan left, the awkward and weird atmosphere dissipated a lot.
Qingfeng Li also gradually woke up from the initial shock.
"Linglong, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"What's the use of telling you, you are a righteous young hero, I am a demon witch...
Besides, I don’t think you chose to escape back then, but now you will choose to face it.”
"It's different!" Qingfeng Li shouted loudly.
"What's the difference? Can you give up your superior status as a righteous young hero for our mother and son? Can you bring shame to Guangyuan Immortal Mansion?"
"I...can! I thought you had already aborted that child. For the past fifteen years, I have been living in regret and pain!
I was wrong, I regretted it the moment I turned around and left! Linglong, you should have told me earlier!"
Qingfeng Li has indeed undergone many changes in these years.
In the past, reputation was the most important thing to him.
But now, he no longer cares.
Yu Linglong looked at the man in front of her.
She suddenly realized that she seemed to have misjudged Qingfeng Li all these years.
He is no longer the timid pretty boy he once was, but has truly transformed into a man who has the courage to take responsibility.
He looked at Yu Linglong staring at him without saying anything.
Qingfeng Li said slowly: "You have been hiding it for fifteen years, why do you suddenly tell me now? Did something happen?"
Yu Linglong nodded silently and said: "Yes, the secret that Changfeng is my son has been made public recently, and it was also said that Changfeng is my and Ye Xiaochuan's son.
That's why Ye Xiaochuan immediately sent you and Changfeng to the pagoda and asked me to handle it.
It doesn't matter to me, Yu Linglong, Changfeng's biological mother has no choice. I just don't want Ye Xiaochuan to be involved.
I owe him so much over the years, without him, Changfeng would have died long ago."
At that moment, Yu Linglong told everything about how Ye Xiaochuan arranged for her to raise her baby in the Wanyuan Mountain Camp in southern Xinjiang fifteen years ago, and how Ye Xiaochuan later rescued Qin Guichen and Chang Feng at the Longmen Inn.
Read it again.
Including Ye Xiaochuan’s selfless care for Changfeng over the years.
Qingfeng Li was confused.
He never expected that Ye Xiaochuan, who was sarcastic to him all day long, would secretly raise his son for ten years and make Changfeng the young sect master.
Yu Linglong said: "Do you still remember what I said to you last time? You owe Ye Xiaochuan so much that you will never be able to repay it in your lifetime. If Ye Xiaochuan is in any danger, you must protect him even if you sacrifice your life."
.”
Qingfeng Li nodded gently and sighed longly.
Yu Linglong continued: "What are you going to do next?"
"I owe Xiaochuan a lot. Don't worry, I know what to do."
Yu Linglong nodded slightly.
She would not take the initiative to ask Qingfeng Li what to do.
She just told Qingfeng Li the truth about the matter.
In the end, it was up to Li Qingfeng to make his own decision.
If Qingfeng Li chose to escape like he did back then, she would admit it.
Yu Linglong said nothing more, turned around and left Youquan Pagoda.
Qingfeng Li was left standing there silently.
"I, Qingfeng Li, have a son... I have a son..."
He suddenly laughed loudly.
Smiling and laughing, tears flowed down.
When Li Qingfeng walked out of Youquan Pagoda, Ye Xiaochuan was the only one left in the cave.
Ye Xiaochuan is sitting behind the desk reading documents.
When he saw Qingfeng Li walking out of the pagoda, he didn't even raise his head.
Said: "Yu Linglong has made everything clear to you?"
Qingfeng Li nodded, looked around, and said, "Where are they?"
Ye Xiaochuan said: "I sent them away, and what followed was a conversation between the two men.
There are some words that Yu Linglong cannot say out loud, so as Changfeng’s master, I naturally have to stand up."
Qingfeng Li walked to the desk and looked at the young man in front of him who was reading the copy. Qingfeng Li suddenly knelt on the ground with one knee.
"Xiaochuan, thank you very much. Thank you for taking care of Yu Linglong and her son these years. From now on, my life, Qingfeng Li, will be yours. Please accept my respects from Qingfeng Li."
Ye Xiaochuan finally raised his head and glanced at Qingfeng Li who was prostrate on the ground.
He didn't step forward to help him up, he just closed the copybook.
"I, Ye Xiaochuan, have never been afraid of trouble, and my reputation has never been bad. If you are unwilling to recognize Changfeng, then Changfeng will be my son from now on."
"No, I do." "What? Are you willing? Have you thought about it clearly? You are an upright young hero, and Yu Linglong is a witch from the Hehuan sect. If you recognize Changfeng, your reputation will be completely ruined!
