Reunion

His voice was so hoarse it was almost inaudible, carrying the grievances and sorrow that had been suppressed for too long, finally finding an outlet at this moment.

"Second Uncle!!!"

He rushed forward, hugged Yu Xiaogang tightly, buried his head in his shoulder, and burst into tears.

The cries were heart-wrenching, like a child finally finding someone to rely on, pouring out all the fear, helplessness, and despair of the past few days.

Yu Xiaogang froze; the voice sounded somewhat familiar to him.

"Who are you?"

The two figures exchanged a glance and slowly stood up.

One of them raised his hand and pushed his hood back.

A young face was revealed, thin, pale, with slightly red eyes and tightly pressed lips.

The other person also took off their hood.

The two faces were strikingly similar.

Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang were stunned when they saw the two faces.

"Aunt."

The older one spoke, his voice hoarse and trembling with barely suppressed emotion:

"It's us."

"Tian Heng ..." Upon seeing these two familiar faces, Yu Xiaogang's eyes instantly reddened. His voice was soft, tinged with a sob that even he himself was unaware of.

Another boy stood up and staggered over to Liu Erlong.

He didn't rush towards her like Yu Tianheng did; he simply stood before her, his lips trembling, tears silently streaming down his face.

"Aunt..."

Liu Erlong stared at him blankly, then whispered in a trembling voice, "Tianxin..."

Liu Erlong's tears welled up instantly.

"Tianxin..." She pulled Yu Tianxin into her arms, holding her tightly, her voice choked with sobs, barely able to speak.

"You're alive... it's good that you're alive... it's alright... it's alright... Auntie's here... Auntie's here..."

Yu Tianxin leaned on her shoulder, crying silently, her whole body trembling.

Yu Xiaogang held Yu Tianheng in his arms, his eyes red-rimmed, tears silently streaming down his face.

He thought he had nothing left. His father was dead, his sect was destroyed, and not a single one of his blood relatives remained.

He and Erlong are the last bloodlines of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

But at this moment, both children are still alive.

Flender stood in the doorway, watching this scene, his eyes slightly reddening.

He didn't go in; he simply closed the door gently, leaned against the doorframe, and waited quietly.

Dai Weisi and his group stood at a distance, watching this side.

Dai Mubai, unusually, didn't say anything sarcastic; he simply watched in silence.

Zhu Zhumeng gently tugged at his sleeve. He looked down at her, but Zhu Zhumeng didn't speak. She just stared quietly at the closed door, a complex emotion flashing in her eyes.

After a long while, the crying inside the house gradually subsided.

Yu Xiaogang patted Yu Tianheng on the shoulder and said in a hoarse voice:

"Okay, stop crying. Let's go inside and talk."

Yu Tianheng nodded, stepped out of his embrace, and wiped the tears from his face.

Liu Erlong released Yu Tianxin, wiped away his tears, and pinched his cheek.

"You've lost weight. Have you been eating poorly?"

Yu Tianxin red, nodded, then shook her head.

Liu Erlong felt like crying and laughing at the same time. She took his hand and led him into the house.

Yu Xiaogang looked at Yu Tianheng and asked:

"Just the two of you? Where are the others?"

Yu Tianheng shook his head and said in a low voice:

"Just the two of us. That day... that day we were sent away overnight, and when we got back, there was... there was nothing left."

His voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.

Yu Xiaogang was silent for a moment, then gently patted his shoulder:

"It's alright. From now on, you'll stay with your second uncle."

Yu Tianheng nodded vigorously.

Liu Erlong said from the side:

"Let's go back first. You must not have been eating or sleeping well these past few days. I'll arrange a place for you to stay."

She pulled Yu Tianxin along, then called to Yu Tianheng, and pushed open the door to go out.

Flender was still standing at the door when he saw them come out, and quickly stepped aside.

Liu Erlong glanced at him and said:

"Boss Fu, go settle the other kids in first. I'll take these two younger ones to get something to eat."

Flender nodded and turned to find Dai Weisi and the others.

The dean of academic affairs was still standing at the entrance of the academic affairs building when he saw Liu Erlong leading two teenagers out. He quickly went to greet them.

"Dean, who are these two...?"

Liu Erlong nodded:

"It's my nephew. Thank you for your help before."

The academic affairs director quickly waved his hand:

"No trouble at all, Dean. As for withdrawing from school..."

Liu Erlong's face darkened again, but he didn't get angry.

She took a deep breath, waved her hand, and said:

"Let them leave. There's no point in forcing someone who can't be kept."

The academic affairs director hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

Two days later, the matter of the Blue Tyrant Academy was finally settled.

Under the cover of night, the cafeteria of the Blue Tyrant Academy was brightly lit.

Liu Erlong, Flender, and Yu Xiaogang sat in the main seats, while Dai Weisi, Dai Niesheng, Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuyun, Zhu Zhuying, and Zhu Zhumeng sat on one side, and Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin sat on the other side.

Zhou Yi stood to the side, holding a list in his hand, looking somewhat troubled.

He glanced at Liu Erlong, then at the students present, and carefully considered his words before speaking:

"Dean, besides these few, there are two other students remaining in the academy."

Liu Erlong raised his head and asked:

"Who?"

Zhou Yi glanced down at the list and read aloud:

"Jing Ling, 15 years old, Martial Soul: Skeleton, Level 25 Agility Attack System Battle Spirit Master. Jiang Zhu, 14 years old, Martial Soul: Healing Scepter, Level 26 Healing System Tool Soul Master."

He paused, then added:

"Both children are quite talented, considered top students in our academy. Some parents have come to make trouble before, demanding they withdraw, but they refused to leave. Jing Ling said it's the same wherever they study. Jiang Zhu said she trusts the dean."

Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

She took a deep breath and nodded, saying:

"Call them over tomorrow too."

Zhou Yi responded and stepped aside.

Liu Erlong's gaze swept across everyone's faces, and he slowly spoke:

"You've all seen the current situation at the Blue Tyrant Academy. Those who wish to stay, I, Liu Erlong, am extremely grateful. Those who don't wish to leave can leave now; I will not force them."

No one moved.

Dai Mubai crossed his arms, leaned back in his chair, and remained silent.

Dai Niesheng glanced at him but said nothing.

Dai Weisi's face remained calm, revealing no emotion.

Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin and remained silent.

Liu Erlong nodded and said:

"Alright. Since you're all staying, from today onwards, you are all official students of the Blue Tyrant Academy."

She turned to look at Yu Xiaogang and said:

"Xiao Gang, you're in charge of the training."

Yu Xiaogang was slightly taken aback.

Liu Erlong looked at him, her eyes full of trust:

"I have always believed in your theory."

Flender nodded as well:

"Xiao Gang, don't refuse."

Yu Xiaogang was silent for a moment, then slowly nodded:

"Good."
