Reunion

"Xingchen, Qiang'er!"

A voice, filled with surprise and urgency, came from afar.

Hua Qiang looked up and saw a group of people rushing towards him.

At the very front was a stunningly beautiful woman who looked to be in her early twenties.

Judging from the way she was walking and her anxious expression, it was definitely his stepmother.

Wrong!

You can't call me "old lady"!

So many years have passed, and the cruel hand of time hasn't done anything to her. Could they be relatives?

Turning his head to look at Hua Xingchen, his nominal father, Hua Qiang quickly looked away.

It's so spicy... it's a disaster!

They're completely mismatched!

If they weren't his biological parents, he would have wanted to personally preside over their divorce ceremony.

This is the legendary story of a tender cabbage being rooted up by a pig, and this pig was the youngest, with a shrewish face.

When Hua Xingchen saw the person who had arrived, his face turned red, his whole body trembled, and his voice became hoarse.

"Hongyan!"

Gu Hongyan's eyes instantly filled with tears.

Like a weary bird returning to its nest, she flew towards Hua Xingchen without hesitation.

Just as she was about to touch Hua Xingchen, she threw herself into his arms, hugging him tightly, as if she wanted to merge herself with him and never be separated again.

Her body trembled slightly, and her long-suppressed emotions burst forth like a flood.

"Waaaaah... Star, I... I'm so sorry!"

Gu Hongyan buried her head in Hua Xingchen's arms and burst into tears.

Hua Xingchen hugged Gu Hongyan tightly, repeatedly saying, "Hongyan, you didn't do anything wrong to me, it's me who did wrong to you."

"It's my fault for not being careful, causing you to eat so much 'ruo' all these years!"

"No, Xingchen, I'm not suffering. It's you who have suffered all these years!"

Hua Qiang felt a sudden toothache. Could these two be people from Qiong Yao dramas?

After a while, Gu Hongyan's crying subsided a little.

He looked up, his face streaked with tears, his expression full of concern.

With a sob in her voice, she asked, "Xingchen, how is the situation at the Demon Suppressing Abyss -Suppressing Demon Suppressing Eye?"

"I worry about you day and night. Is it very dangerous there?"

"Has the Demon Suppressing Eye shown any unusual activity? Are you injured?"

Hua Xingchen gently wiped away Gu Hongyan's tears and said softly, "Hongyan, life in Demon Suppressing Abyss is indeed unbearable."

"The Demon Eye occasionally emits a powerful demonic aura, as powerful Outer Realm Demons are striking the seal, trying to break free."

"I have to be on high alert every day and never let my guard down in reinforcing the seal."

"Although it is very tough and dangerous, just thinking of you gives me the strength to fight."

"Thank God, our son has arrived!"

My son led me out of that awful place and brought me back to the light of day.

Gu Hongyan listened to Hua Xingchen's story with great heartache. She hugged Hua Xingchen tightly again and said, "You've come and gone, you've come and gone. Never go to such dangerous places again."

Hua Xingchen whispered in her ear, "Okay, we'll never be apart again."

Gu Hongyan seemed to have thought of something and quickly pushed Hua Xingchen away. Because she pushed him a little too hard, she almost made Hua Xingchen fall to the ground.

At that moment, she didn't notice this point, only staring intently at Hua Qiang.

"My child, my poor child, your mother has finally found you!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Hongyan hugged Hua Qiang tightly and burst into tears again, crying so hard that it felt like her heart was being torn apart.

Hua Qiang's lips twitched incessantly. He was the one who brought his cheap old man here, so how did it become that she came looking for him?

Are you even being reasonable?

At this moment, Zuo Xiangyang's face was as gloomy as the dark clouds before a storm.

His hands were clenched into fists, the knuckles turning a bluish-green from the force, as if he were trying his best to suppress some emotion within him.

Then, he slowly loosened his fist, but after a moment, he clenched it again, as if an unnamed fire was burning in his heart but he had nowhere to vent it.

Finally, as if giving up the struggle, he sighed softly, a sigh filled with helplessness, resentment, and unwillingness.

After that, he simply turned his head away and looked to the side, his action revealing a kind of determination, as if this would make him not see it and not be bothered by it.

Jiang Xukong's gaze lingered on the stunningly beautiful Gu Hongyan for a moment, then slowly shifted to his grandson. He gently shook his head, his eyes filled with regret.

He sighed inwardly, "What a pity."

After saying that, he raised his hand and waved it gently. As if a stone had been thrown into a calm lake, ripples appeared in the air, and then a crack slowly appeared.

Without the slightest hesitation, the old man stepped into the crevice and vanished without a trace in the blink of an eye.

He had no time to worry about anything else. Hua Qiang had only given him an hour, and he needed to hurry back to prepare the compensation.

Gu Qingshu and his companions slowly approached this side.

The old man's face was full of conflicted emotions, like a crumpled piece of paper.

His brows were furrowed tightly, and his eyes revealed deep worry.

It felt like there were two little black figures arguing inside my head.

The little black Human Path said, "That bastard Hua Qiang, I should have eliminated him eighteen years ago. If I hadn't been merciful back then and spared his life, how could we have so much trouble today?"

The lewd man retorted, "Nonsense! This is my own bloodline, how could I do such a thing?"

The child is innocent!

Moreover, he was a genius. Who could have imagined that after the age of eighteen, he would grow to such a level that even Jiang Xukong, Half-Saint Realm, was defeated by him.

Not only did he lose an arm, but he also had to bow his head, admit defeat, and pay a hefty sum to save his life.

The little black man said, "Hua Qiang is so powerful now, how am I supposed to face him?"

If he wants to retaliate against me, how should I deal with it?

The lecherous little man said, "I am his great-grandfather, but I made a mistake that any old man might make."

Who wouldn't want to curry favor with a powerful figure and make their Lineage stronger?

This child should be able to understand!

The little black man. "What if he gets carried away and starts hitting me too?"

The lecherous villain said, "He wouldn't dare! I'm his great-grandfather! That brat dares to be so disobedient and unfilial, disrespectful to his elders, I'll break his legs!"

The little black man said, "Can you beat him? Even Jiang Half-Saint was injured by him!"

The lewd little man. "I..."

Gu Qingshu became increasingly agitated as he thought about it, and his steps became heavier and heavier.

Gu Qingfeng rushed to Hua Qiang and said excitedly, "Xiao Qiang, I'm your fourth uncle, and I'm closest to your third sister, who is also your mother!"

"Xiaoqiang, do you want to know what happened when you were born?"
