Hisana Kuchiki

Everyone left, except for a group of elders from the Council of Elders remained, each looking hesitant to speak. Ye Yang asked, "What's wrong, elders? Is there anything else?"

Among them, the First Elder stepped forward. Over the years, he has been in charge of the Shihoin Clan Council of Elders. It can be said that apart from Shihoin Seigen family, he is the second-in-command.

"Master, do you think we should hold a succession ceremony? This would both announce to the outside world that the Shihoin Clan has a new head, and it would also be beneficial for your future exchanges and cooperation with other noble families. Although the Yoruichi head announced it when he left, a succession ceremony is still missing, isn't it?"

Ye Yang nodded. "That's true, Elder. You're right. Then please take care of this matter."

"Yes! Patriarch, three days from now is an auspicious day. How about we hold the succession ceremony three days from now?" the First Elder said, as if he had expected it.

"We will follow the Elder's advice."

"Yes, I will make the arrangements immediately."

"Um"

Afterwards, the Council of Elders all left with the Grand Elder, leaving only Ye Yang's parents and Soi Fon behind. Ye Yang said to them, "Let's go, let's go back and talk."

"Brother Ye Yang, why don't I go back first?" Soi Fon said. Ye Yang's parents were here, and they hadn't seen each other in a long time. What would she do if she went back? Although she also wanted to know about Ye Yang's experiences in Hueco Mundo, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future, so she wasn't in a hurry.

Unexpectedly, before Ye Yang could say anything, his mother spoke first, "Why are you being so formal? Didn't it make clear today that Xiao Yang brought you back? I've long considered you part of our family."

She smiled happily. She hadn't smiled so happily since Ye Yang and Yoruichi. Whenever she thought of her two children, she couldn't help but miss them and silently prayed for their safety.

For the past fifty years, besides improving her strength and completing missions, Soi Fon would visit her parents whenever she had free time. They had seen Soi Fon 'Soi Fon feelings for Ye Yang and had long regarded her as their daughter-in-law.

Soi Fon blushed slightly and whispered, "Auntie, what did you say?"

Even Ye Yang's father laughed at this point. Ye Yang smiled and said, "Alright, let's go back first."

Back in his room, Ye Yang recounted his journey to Hueco Mundo his experiences there, omitting any mention of Ulquiorra and Nelliel. When Ye Yang spoke of going to the World of the Living to see Yoruichi three asked, "Little Yoruichi, how is Lady Yoruichi?"

"She's fine, seems to be doing quite well in the World of the Living," Ye Yang sighed softly.

Soi Fon asked anxiously, "Isn't Lady Yoruichi coming back?"

"She'll come back; after all, this is her home. I just don't know when."

Soi Fon gritted her teeth and said, "It's all because of Kisuke Urahara. If it weren't for him, Lady Yoruichi would never have left."

Ye Yang's parents, however, had a different feeling towards this name. They hated him for taking their daughter away, yet they wanted to see what kind of magic the man possessed that could make their daughter willingly abandon Soul Society. They had seen Urahara before, and his seemingly lazy eyes and the fleeting glint of shrewdness in them had caught their eye. But if they saw Urahara in his normal state, they wondered if they would fly into a rage.

"She can't come back right now because of some things, but she will definitely come back in the future," Ye Yang said firmly.

At the Kuchiki Clan, a handsome young man was admiring the cherry blossoms. His long black hair cascaded over his shoulders, and his light purple eyes seemed to sparkle. Beside him stood a beautiful young woman.

Her black hair was loose, not very long, just reaching her shoulders. A tuft of hair extended down from the bridge of her nose, like the girl Ururu who was suppressed in the World of the Living, but she gave people a gentle and elegant impression, soft on the outside but strong on the inside. There was a faint smile on her lips, but somehow you could feel a faint sadness.

"Lord Byakuya, is there something wrong today?" The girl sensed that Byakuya was different from usual. The young man was none other than Byakuya Kuchiki, the twenty-eighth head of the Kuchiki Clan.

The naivety and fiery temper of his youth have vanished, replaced by a mature air. There's a hint of coldness, though; he only smiles slightly when he sees someone he knows well.

He was wearing a haori with the number six on it, clearly indicating that he had now taken up the position of captain of the Sixth Division, while his grandfather, Ginrei Kuchiki, had retired due to his advanced age.

Beside him was his wife, Hisana Kuchiki. Several years ago, Byakuya went on a mission to the District 78 South Rukongai, where Byakuya met this girl by chance. From then on, Byakuya could never forget her.

I remember that despite his status as a noble heir and the opposition of his entire family, Byakuya married Hisana, who came from Rukongai. At the time, this caused a huge uproar in the entire Seireien, with most nobles saying that he had disgraced the aristocracy. However, this relationship received the support of most commoners, and in the end Byakuya's grandfather Ginrei Kuchiki, tacitly approved the transfer of the position of head of the family and captain of the Sixth Division to Byakuya. After becoming the head of the family, Byakuya married Hisana.

The Council of Elders informed the nobles that they could not attend the wedding, so not many people showed up on the day of the wedding; only a few people that Byakuya knew well were present. However, this was a day that Byakuya would never forget. His only regret was that the seats for both sets of elders were empty, and he thought it would have been better if Ye Yang had been there.

Because Hisana has no Spiritual Power, she will be affected by Spiritual Pressure while living in the Seireien, and her lifespan will not be long. Many people speculate that Byakuya will regret it soon.

However, Byakuya later said, "Marrying Hisana the thing I regret least in my life."

Byakuya looked at Hisana in front of him, his eyes full of tenderness. "He's back..." Then he looked into the distance, lost in thought.

Hisana asked, "Him? Is he the person you often mention?"

Byakuya sighed softly, "Yes, I'll take you to visit him tomorrow."

"Um"...

The next day, Ye Yang was still in his room looking at the documents when Soi Fon returned to the Second Division. After all, she was the captain, and they couldn't do without her; there were still a lot of teams waiting for her to handle.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Enter!"

A servant entered through the door and said, "Master, the Kuchiki Clan Head and his wife have arrived."

"Huh?" Ye Yang answered casually, then asked, "What did you say?"

"The Kuchiki Clan Head and his wife have come to visit you," the servant said respectfully as always.

Ye Yang was shocked. "Isn't the current head of the Kuchiki Clan Byakuya?"

"Yes, Master."

When did he get a wife?

Three years ago, the Kuchiki Clan Head married Lady Hisana.

Three years ago?

"Yes"

"Alright, you can go now. Tell them I'll be there soon."

"Yes!"

Ye Yang chuckled. He hadn't expected that he hadn't even made any arrangements yet, and the child he had watched grow up was already married. More importantly, he hadn't even made it to his wedding.

Ye Yang made a quick preparation and headed to the reception hall, where he saw Byakuya already sitting in his seat drinking tea, with a delicate-looking girl sitting next to him, presumably his wife.

Ye Yang shouted, "Byakuya!"

Byakuya stood up. "Brother Ye Yang, you're back."

"Yes, after so many years of wandering, you're finally back. How about it? Aren't you going to introduce the person next to you?" Ye Yang smiled slightly.

Byakuya then said, "This is my wife Hisana, and this is the brother Ye Yang I mentioned."

Hisana stepped forward, bowed, and greeted, "Brother Ye Yang."

Looking at the seemingly delicate girl before him, Ye Yang that beneath her fragile exterior lay a strong heart, and he sincerely wished them well in marrying such a wife.

Hisana not only well-mannered but also elegant, not at all like a commoner from Rukongai. Instead, she seems like a born noblewoman, but without the arrogance of a noble, making people feel like they are bathed in a spring breeze.

"Hisana? Byakuya must be incredibly lucky to have married you. I've watched Byakuya grow up since he was a child, and I know his personality. You'll have to be more understanding of him," Ye Yang said.

Hisana smiled faintly, "Being with Lord Byakuya is my greatest happiness. Lord Byakuya takes good care of me, and I'm very content."

Ye Yang glanced at Byakuya. His former fiery temper had been tempered, and now that he was the head of the family, he was much more mature than before. Ye Yang said regretfully, "It's such a pity I couldn't attend your wedding, but a gift is a must. Consider it a belated wedding present. Hisana, what do you want?"

"Hisana doesn't ask for gifts"

Byakuya said, "Since Brother Ye Yang has spoken, then you should speak."

Hisana simply said, "I will follow my elder brother's orders."

"Hisana, I heard you're from Rukongai?"

Even when speaking of this Hisana's voice remained neither humble nor arrogant, "Yes, Hisana used to live in the District 78 of South Rukongai, and now resides in Kuchiki Mansion."

Ye Yang said, "Living without Spiritual Power within the Seireien will always harm your soul. If this continues, it won't be long before you disappear. Have you thought about this?"

"I've thought it over. I'll just stay by Lord Byakuya's side. I'll cherish this time," Hisana insisted.

Ye Yang sighed softly, then took out a small bracelet and said slowly, "This is a bracelet I made. It can effectively prevent external Spiritual Pressure from eroding your body. Given your current physical condition, it can only last for another five years at most. As for what happens after that, there's nothing I can do."

Hisana looked at the bracelet with delight. She thought she wouldn't last more than two years, but Ye Yang actually said she could last another five! That's wonderful! I can live with Lord Byakuya for another five years. In five years, I'll definitely find her...
