Ling Yun walked up to Ling Wensong and gestured for him to sit down!
Ling Wensong's eyes brimmed with tears!
"Grandpa, it's been a long time!"
The words came naturally, without the slightest awkwardness!
Facing Ling Yun's ever-present smile, Ling Wensong felt an unbearable ache in his heart. He had always felt he had wronged his eldest grandson!
"Little Yun, I... I..." Ling Wensong choked up, tears streaming down his face!
Ling Yun shook his head. "The past is like smoke. Let bygones be bygones. Why dwell on it, Grandpa? Why feel guilty about what happened?"
"Easier said than done. You're not me. How could you know what these years have been like for me? I've regretted it every single day."
"Grandpa, that was then. I'm doing very well now, so you don't need to feel guilty. The truth is, I've come to terms with it too!"
"Little Yun, thank you!"
"We're family, bound together by blood!"
"Hahaha, that's right!" Ling Wensong burst out laughing. He had never felt so at ease!
His strength had remained stuck in the early stage of the Heavenly Human Realm because he couldn't let go of the past. But now, Ling Wensong's cultivation had begun to stir.
"Grandpa, has your health been poor lately?"
"It's an old ailment. No need to mention it. Seeing that you're perfectly healthy is enough for me. Hahaha!" Ling Wensong's illness had grown serious, but he didn't want his family to worry, and he certainly didn't want Ling Yun worrying right now!
Ling Yun could see all of it, but went along with Ling Wensong's wishes and pretended not to know.
"Mm!"
"Little Yun, it's getting late. Let's go out together. They must be waiting for us to start dinner!" Ling Wensong stood up!
Ling Yun shook his head
