Kiana will forgive eventually; she just needs time and a process.

The stealth fighter entered the skies over Shenzhou as if it were an empty field, and arrived at Great Void Mountain with unparalleled ease.

After Cang Xiaoxuan awoke, he maintained many of the old and even obsolete facilities on Great Void Mountain. Now, the mountain has all the necessary technological infrastructure, and the landing and interception of fighter jets is naturally no problem for him.

Fu Hua was the first to jump out of the fighter jet cockpit.

Then the petite girl rushed over like a bird returning to its nest, her delicate fragrance filling the air.

"Crimson Kite, Crimson Kite, you're finally back! Welcome home!"

"Ji Lin, it's been a long time."

Fu Hua was not used to this excessive intimacy and enthusiasm.

But Ji Lin's upturned smile was truly too pure, and his sparkling eyes were filled with longing and affection for her.

Fu Hua felt her defenses melt away, and with no other option, she could only smile and hug Ji Lin, gently stroking the top of the girl's head.

However, Ji Lin only snuggled in Fu Hua's arms for a moment before turning to Anqi and Kiana, who had gotten off the plane one after the other.

He cupped Anqi's cheeks and rubbed them vigorously.

"Welcome home, little Anqi ~~"

"Waaah~~ Uncle-Master, I'm back~~"

Grasp Kiana's hands and swing them vigorously.

"And also, you're the one with Crimson Kite and Xiao Anqi, what was her name again? Oh, your classmate, right? Welcome, welcome, Great Void Mountain welcomes you~~"

"Uh, thank you."

Kiana's lips twitched, unsure how to react.

They're being way too enthusiastic.

Even though Kiana is usually an enthusiastic husky, she has just suffered a setback and is still in a cooling-off period, so she is a little overwhelmed by the sudden shock.

After exchanging greetings with everyone, Ji Lin snuggled up to Fu Hua again, hugging her arm, his radiant smile like blooming joyful little flowers.

"Crimson Kite?~~ Crimson Kite?~~"

"No, please don't do this, Ji Lin."

Fu Hua tried to pull her arm away, but without really exerting any force, she couldn't break free from Ji Lin's power.

He then showed an embarrassed expression.

The apprentice and his companion are still nearby; if you want to hug him, can't you find a secluded spot first?

At this moment, Cang Xiaoxuan and the half-illusory, half-real floating spirit A-Lin finally arrived late.

"Tsk! It seems the split between you two is based on age. The childish part is in her, while the mature and sensible part is in you, A-Lin."

"Xiaoxuan, don't say that. My sister is very capable."

"Your and your blockhead's biased view of Ji Lin is unacceptable. If the dignified Emperor Xuanyuan only clings to a blockhead in private, how will he save face?"

"Ah, this..."

A-Lin thoughtfully covered his lips.

Actually, I'm a little envious of Ji Lin's carefree and unrestrained nature.

A-Lin also wanted to give Fu Hua, who rarely came home, a big hug, but he was a little embarrassed and worried that Fu Hua wouldn't like it and wouldn't be as straightforward as Ji Lin.

As for Cang Xiaoxuan, while he was verbally criticizing her, he was actually secretly amused by Fu Hua's awkward yet helpless expression. Ji Lin, to put it nicely, had the heart of a child; to put it bluntly, he was shameless. Paired with the slow-witted and passive blockhead, they were a perfect match!

The two continued talking, ignoring the couple putting on their silly little Theater, and headed towards the other returning visitors and guests.

At this moment, Kiana was also whispering with Anqi.

"Those two, are they...?"

"If what you're describing is the kind I'm thinking of, then yes."

"Huh? He's usually so serious, I couldn't tell at all. And did people in ancient times have such fancy things?"

"What's all the fuss about? Five hundred years ago, the Holy Maiden of Schicksal, Cabernet Kaslana, fell in love with a witch from the Far East. Why couldn't the Immortal Crimson Heron and Emperor Xuanyuan be together five thousand years ago? Forget it, let's leave this topic here. If we keep talking, I'm afraid something will happen to you."

Well, not just anyone can joke about Mr. Otto's tragic past.

If Kiana, with her big mouth, finds out the details, she might get executed by Rita one day for stepping into the classroom with her right foot first.

Kiana had just overheard some incredible gossip and was about to press for more details when Cang Xiaoxuan and A-Lin floated over, causing her pupils to shrink. She quickly pulled Anqi aside and said:

"Anqi, that little one, the one from Donghai..."

"This is Xiaoxuan Xuan. Like Skyfire, she is Armed Doll. Of course, their roles are different. Junior Martial Aunt Xiaoxuan Xuan is not a combat type, and... she is not with Skyfire, right, Xiaoxuan?"

Anqi's expressionless face suddenly turned even colder at this moment.

Cang Xiaoxuan's heart skipped a beat, and then he raised his hand and punched Anqi on the forehead.

"Nonsense! Of course we're not on the same wavelength!"

"Um. I'm sorry, Uncle Xiaoxuan Xuan, I'm a little... Anyway, I'm back, Uncle Xiaoxuan Xuan, Uncle A-Lin."

Anqi took several deep breaths, as if to compose herself, and after a while, she smiled warmly and sweetly.

Cang Xiaoxuan and A-Lin exchanged a glance, both seeing the lingering worry in each other's eyes.

Kiana also became unusually quiet.
