Two flowers bloom, one branch each.
After Ziyan Shaozhe and the others were taken away by the Ling family steward, Ling An also rushed to the main study of the Ling family as quickly as possible. In order to speed up the process, he even used a trace of his soul power.
When Ling An opened the door to the main study, he was stunned when he saw the three familiar figures in front of him.
Looking at Ling Yongming, who resembled the man deep in the cave but was full of vitality, Ling An was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.
It wasn't until Ling Yongsheng slapped his head hard with his soul power from a distance that he reacted and called out, "Hello, Uncle."
Ling Yongming smiled and replied to him. Then Ling An stopped being stunned, walked directly into the main study, closed the door, and sat down on the sofa.
Even now, Ling An still stared at Ling Yongming in disbelief, genuinely unable to comprehend how Ling Yongming had managed to escape. After all, he was different from Ling Yongsheng. Twenty years ago, after seeing Ling Yongming again after many years, Ling Yongsheng went mad trying to find a way to free his elder brother, which was why he remembered the possibility of becoming a god so vividly.
Even Ling Yongsheng, upon learning of Ling Bingtian's god-level martial soul, couldn't imagine that Ling Yongming could return to the Ling family at this very moment!
These four days have been full of unexpected events.
Finally, seeing his father's somewhat embarrassing state, Ling Bingtian quickly went to his side and whispered an explanation of what had happened over the past few days.
Then, such a sound came from the main study of the Duke's mansion.
"What?! Xiao Tian, you've accepted the Ice God's inheritance test!"
"What? You can now freely enter and exit that small dimension!"
"What? The smaller plane suffered immense damage, and the altar was also severely damaged, so the connection with Uncle was severed!"
Finally, Ling An sat on the sofa, dumbfounded, only able to describe his feelings in one word.
"Holy shit..."
Upon hearing this, Ling Yongsheng slapped his head hard again and shouted angrily, "Can't you see Xiaotian is still here? What nonsense are you spouting!"
Ling Bingtian could only sit helplessly next to his father, watching him receive a soul-power slap from his father. He silently sighed that he was still young, and his grandfather and mother would protect him. In addition, he had been well-behaved since childhood, so he had never experienced the unique "love" of the Ling family.
After being slapped by Ling Yongsheng, Ling An finally recovered from the shock and began to have a normal conversation with Ling Yongming.
Soon, the quiet conversation in the main study was interrupted again by the sound of a door being pushed open.
"Creak." The door to the main study was suddenly pushed open from the outside. The four people inside looked over at the sound and saw an old man standing there wearing a pale white "cloak".
The visitor was none other than Ling Yongyi.
"B-Big Brother!" Ling Yongyi could hardly believe his eyes. As one of the people in the know about the secret realm, when the Soul Master with the Lightning Antelope Martial Soul found him and told him this news, he thought the Soul Master had misheard. How could his big brother possibly have returned from the secret realm?
However, upon hearing this news, a glimmer of hope immediately arose in Ling Yongyi's heart. What if, what if it were true!
With this thought in mind, he ordered the Soul Master to rest at the East Gate and then rushed back to the Ling family from the East Gate garrison as quickly as possible, without even using his soul power to build a soul power shield to protect himself from the wind.
This is the origin of his "pale white cloak".
"Hey~" Ling Yongming looked at the familiar figure in front of him and replied with a light laugh to his youngest brother.
A simple and ordinary answer instantly brought tears to Ling Yongyi's eyes.
This is his eldest brother who doted on him the most when he was a child! After suffering for so long in that godforsaken place, he's finally home!
"Big brother!" Overwhelmed with emotion, Ling Yongyi rushed in and gave Ling Yongming a big bear hug, burying his head in his brother's broad shoulders.
"Xiao Yi, it's okay, brother's home, that's good news, don't cry." Feeling his younger brother's strong hug and the slight dampness on his shoulder, Ling Yongming was deeply moved. He never expected his younger brother's first reaction upon seeing him at home would be like this.
He gently patted Ling Yongyi's shoulder to comfort him, and Ling Yongming said no more.
The three members of Ling Bingtian's family, who were watching from the side, remained silent, giving Ling Yongyi ample space to vent his emotions.
A full half-incense stick's time passed before Ling Yongyi, who had been hugging Ling Yongming tightly, finally let go, took two steps back, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said softly, "I'm sorry, Second Brother, I lost my composure."
"It's alright. When I saw Big Brother again in the cave, I was even more flustered than you were," Ling Yongsheng said with a smile, patting Ling Yongyi on the shoulder and casually revealing a past mistake to comfort him.
"I can testify." Ling Yongming, who was watching from the sidelines, didn't mind making things worse. He was so happy that he even cooperated with Ling Yongsheng's words, corroborating the truth of Ling Yongsheng's words.
Listening to his two older brothers' words of comfort, Ling Yongyi felt as if he had returned to the time more than a hundred years ago, to the days when the three brothers were all the rage in the entire Tianhun Empire and even the entire continent. He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Ling Yongyi's laughter also prompted Ling Yongming and Ling Yongsheng to burst into laughter. They shared the same feeling as Ling Yongyi, a familiar yet strange sensation that filled them with deep emotion. Amidst the laughter, the subtle distance between Ling Yongming and Ling Yongyi, who hadn't seen each other for some time, was slowly bridged.
We've laughed and cried, and now it's time to get down to business.
The five people took their seats, filling the originally spacious sofa to capacity. The three brothers, Ling Yongming, Ling Yongsheng, and Ling Yongyi, sat in a row, while Ling An and his son Ling Bingtian sat on separate seats on either side of them, and began to chat about whatever came up.
As the youngest person present, Ling Bingtian, who was not even a fraction of Ling An's age, once again took on the task of explaining the events of the past few days to Ling Yongyi.
Through Ling Bingtian's vivid explanation, Ling Yongyi gradually gained a comprehensive understanding of what had happened to Ling Bingtian and the other two in the past few days.
However, Ling Yongyi was, after all, a veteran Soul Master who had lived for a century, and he didn't lose his composure like Ling An. Moreover, compared to Ling An, he remembered the method that had freed Ling Yongming even more.
However, from his perspective, he believed that even if Ling Bingtian accepted the Ice God's divine trial, it would still take at least several decades for his elder brother to be freed.
Unexpectedly, this day came so quickly, even surprising Ling Yongyi.
After Ling Bingtian finished explaining what had happened in the past few days, Ling An took over the conversation.
"Speaking of which, I also have something important to discuss with you, Father." As he spoke, Ling An took out a letter from the storage ring he always carried.
Everyone looked over at the sound and saw that it was a letter that was entirely dark green, with a layer of gold sealing wax at the seal.
Most notably, in the lower right corner of the sealing wax, there are two lines of large, flowing characters.
To my dearest friend Ling Yongsheng
