Chapter 118 Honesty Under the Moon
"My grandfather... is still alive?!"
Shi Hao was stunned, then shouted. A mix of emotions, including sadness, joy, and surprise, surged through him, and finally he was filled with happiness.
He was truly shocked. He vividly remembered that during the battle years ago, his grandfather was chased by an adult Pixiu and disappeared without a trace. Everyone believed that he had died in battle.
Otherwise, why hasn't he shown up for so many years?
If he were still alive, he should have come back long ago, especially after his supreme bone was dug out and his parents were forced to leave their hometown. If he were still alive, he would never have tolerated it.
"Phew~"
Thinking it over, Shi Hao tried to calm himself down and asked Willow Goddess, "Willow Goddess, please tell me, where is my grandfather now?"
As soon as Shi Hao finished speaking, Liu Shen's voice rang out: "A month ago, he appeared in the capital of the Shi Kingdom."
"The capital of the Stone Kingdom..."
Shi Hao murmured softly, then looked at Liu Shen with a firm gaze and said, "Liu Shen, please take me there. I need to go to the capital of Shi Kingdom to see my grandfather."
At this moment, Shi Hao was extremely excited. After so many years, how could he not be excited to receive news of his blood relatives again, especially since it was his grandfather?
The reason my grandfather disappeared and was suspected of dying was entirely because of the search for pure blood for him.
"Child, don't worry."
Seeing that Shi Hao was in a bad mood, Shi Linhu and the others immediately came over to comfort him.
After a long while, with everyone's comforting words, Shi Hao finally calmed down again.
He was thrilled to hear news of his grandfather, and his mind was filled with images of the time he spent with him in the past.
But looking at the people around him, he understood that leaving like this was not a good idea.
He and Xiao An had been away for two years on their trip to Kunpeng Nest, and now that they had just returned, they had to stay for at least one night.
Thinking of this, Shi Hao turned to look at his clansmen and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine."
After saying that, Shi Hao suddenly took out a lot of seafood from his Qiankun bag.
There are giant turtles, silver sharks, sea dragons, demon octopuses... there are so many kinds, I can't count them all, they are all strange and unusual.
These were all obtained by him in the Kunpeng Nest.
"We're having a seafood feast today!"
At his shout, a group of children cried out, and even a few toddlers who had just learned to walk rushed forward, eager to be the first to try it, but were stopped by their parents.
These toddlers who had just learned to walk were the children of Pihou, Ermeng, and Dazhuang, who were of the same generation as Shi An and Shi Hao; they were the nephews and nieces of the two men.
Aside from the children's extraordinary excitement, even Shi Linhu, Shi Feijiao, and other grandfathers were filled with astonishment.
They were born and raised in the wilderness, and had never seen such seafood before. Therefore, they were all very surprised, pinching this and touching that from time to time, marveling at it.
Shi Hao's return was destined to be a day filled with laughter and joy. The clansmen were overjoyed, and soon the air was filled with the smoke of cooking, as various kinds of seafood were being prepared.
More than two years have passed, and the group of friends have all grown up. Even Qingfeng has matured a lot and is no longer as naive as he used to be.
"Hey bro, take me with you when you leave this time!"
At the banquet, Shi Qingfeng looked at Shi Hao with hopeful eyes, wanting to go out and conquer the world with him.
"I'll consider it."
However, Shi Hao did not agree to this, firstly because he was not clear about the current situation of Shi Kingdom, and secondly because Shi Qingfeng's strength was still a bit weak, and he was somewhat worried about him.
Upon hearing this, Shi Qingfeng was somewhat disappointed, but he did not argue or make a scene. Instead, he silently turned around and picked up some seafood.
Seeing this, Shi Hao couldn't help but sigh softly.
He knew perfectly well what Shi Qingfeng was thinking. He had been in the same boat back then, dreaming of following Xiao An and venturing into the wilderness together.
However, he was always rejected, with the response being that he would try again later.
Thinking of this, Shi Hao shook his head and then joined the others in drinking.
That evening, Shi Hao drank with his fellow villagers, and they enjoyed a feast around the campfire, filled with laughter and joy, making the village entrance incredibly lively.
Meanwhile, Shi An had just come out of the Celestial Race's treasure vault.
This time, he also took three items from the Celestial Race's treasure vault, all of which were semi-sacred medicines.
"Are you going back now, or tomorrow?"
Outside the Celestial Race's treasure vault, Yunxi, dressed in a purple dress, gazed at the bright moon in the sky and asked, seemingly casually.
Looking at Yunxi's expression, Shi An suddenly felt a urge to tease her, and then, almost as if possessed, asked, "You want me to stay?"
Just when Shi An thought he was about to be met with a barrage of insults, Yun Xi unexpectedly gave a soft "hmm".
"you·······"
This sound made Shi An's eyes widen in surprise as he looked at Yun Xi, who was still calmly gazing at the bright moon.
After a while, Shi An calmed down and asked curiously, "Why?"
Yunxi gently brushed a strand of hair from her temple, her gaze still fixed on the bright moon, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes: "At first, I did have quite a few complaints about you, after all, you..."
As she spoke, a blush crept onto Yunxi's fair face, but she quickly regained her composure and continued, "But after spending time together, I've discovered that you're not a playboy."
"On the contrary, so far I have not found any unusual feelings from you towards any woman, which makes me a little curious about what kind of woman could catch your eye."
At this point, Yunxi glanced at Shi An out of the corner of her eye, as if observing whether Shi An's expression was different, but to her disappointment, Shi An's expression remained unchanged.
Seeing this, Yunxi sighed inwardly, and then continued, "What I didn't expect was that, as time went by, I became deeply attracted to you."
"He overpowered numerous kings in the Hundred Broken Mountains, withstood my grandfather in Cloud Hidden City, and previously fought against many Venerables outside the Kunpeng Nest without yielding..."
Hearing this, Shi An suddenly spoke calmly: "So you plan to listen to your grandfather?"
Shi An's sudden voice made Yun Xi's eyes flash with unease, and she immediately turned to look at him: "You...you know?!"
Seeing Yun Xi's evasive gaze and slightly flushed cheeks, Shi An couldn't help but smile contemptuously: "Your grandfather really won't get up early for nothing!"
"He saw our village's spirit display its power in front of everyone, easily slaughtering many Venerables. He was worried that other forces would interfere and arrange a marriage between their own descendants and me or my brother, so he decided to strike first!"
"I·········"
Seeing that Shi An had easily seen through her plan, Yun Xi, who was trying to remain calm, blushed and was at a loss.
She opened her mouth, wanting to explain something, but didn't know where to begin.
