Veins bulged on Tang Yuehua's forehead, and her face flushed bright red.

How humiliating! This was utterly humiliating!

Though she was extremely unwilling to admit it, Bofeng's identity was an indisputable fact. Yet she had been toyed with by this "little uncle" for half the day.

Then Tang Yuehua sighed inwardly and called out weakly.

"Little Uncle."

"What?"

Tang Yuehua: "..."

"Don't go too far! It's true that you're Grandfather's child, but if you keep this up, be careful or I'll go back and tell the five elders to teach you a proper lesson!"

"The five elders?"

All five of them were Titled Douluo, and they called Tang Chen their eldest uncle. Their seniority was slightly above Bofeng's.

"Wait a moment?"

Bofeng grinned. "Those five elders call Father their eldest uncle, and I'm Father's son. We're of the same generation. You want them to lecture me?"

"Don't forget, the Clear Sky Token is still in my hands. Who knows who'll be lecturing whom in the future?"

"You!!!" Tang Yuehua was rendered speechless.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Hurry and tell me about the Clear Sky Sect's current situation so I can arrange what comes next." Bofeng asked seriously.

"Then tell me first, where is Grandfather now? Back when the Clear Sky Sect was threatened by Spirit Hall, why didn't he..." Tang Yuehua asked.

Bofeng let out a long sigh. "Father is currently attempting to break through to Level 100 in a certain place. That place isn't easy to enter, and I can't just disturb him."

"I grew up on Sea God Island. Not long ago, Mother sent me off the island specifically to resolve the Clear Sky Sect's problems. Spirit Hall has already started paying attention to me, so you can't reveal my identity to anyone."

"Not even Big Brother?" Tang Yuehua asked.

Bofeng shook his head. "No! Spirit Hall has been watching me rather closely these past few days. Our relationship is so unusual that if anything comes up, just write me a letter."

"Now hurry and tell me the sect's current situation."

Tang Yuehua nodded. "Ever since the sect sealed itself off and Second Brother was expelled from the sect, there has been no news of him. I thought that with your appearance, Grandfather would return as well. I never expected..."

"Hurry and come up with something. The Number One Sect Under Heaven has been forced into seclusion—do you know how much my big brother has to endure every day?"

"Little Niece! Stop shaking me! You're making me dizzy!" Bofeng hurriedly patted Tang Yuehua's hand gripping his arm.

"Then come up with a plan. We can't just sit here and wait for death."

Bofeng said, "Steady yourself first. Spirit Hall has already set its sights on me. I'll return to the sect sooner or later, but not now. For the time being, I still need to search the continent for my little nephew Tang Hao's whereabouts and get him back into the sect first."

"Mm." Tang Yuehua nodded. "Then when will you leave?"

"Don't rush. I still have some worries to settle. I need to ask you for a favor."

"Please speak, Little Uncle."

"Oh? So now you're calling me 'Little Uncle'?" Bofeng teased.

Tang Yuehua's face reddened. "If you weren't handling matters for the sect, do you think I'd call you that? Hurry up and tell me what it is."

"A few days ago, I took in a little girl in Silvis City. Her name is Nannan. Some time ago, during the Spirit Awakening at the Martial Soul Main Hall in Heaven Dou City, her martial soul awakened as a mysterious white flower, and she possesses Innate Full Soul Power."

"Unfortunately, Chrysanthemum Douluo from Spirit Hall was there, so..."

"Chrysanthemum Douluo? He was the one who led the group to Clear Sky Sect back then!" Tang Yuehua said through gritted teeth.

"I plan to have you take Nannan to the Clear Sky Sect. Though it's sealed off, the most dangerous place is often the safest."

"But..."

Tang Yuehua looked somewhat embarrassed. "The sect has rules. Anyone whose martial soul isn't the Clear Sky Hammer is forbidden from going up the mountain."

Bofeng: "..."

"This damn rule is really annoying. How about this—why don't you become my little sister's godmother?"

"Godmother?" Tang Yuehua said helplessly, "I..."

"What? Is my little niece still a Holy Maiden and unmarried?"

Tang Yuehua immediately shot Bofeng a glare, then nodded...

She had fallen for someone she should not have loved and remained unmarried to this day. She would probably regret it for the rest of her life.

"Fine!"

Clap, clap...

Bofeng clapped his hands, and the tightly shut door slowly opened a crack.

"Brother, where is this?" Nannan pushed open the door and entered, asking innocently.

Bofeng smiled, stepped forward, and scooped her into his arms before instructing the attendant to leave.

"Good thing I told the attendant to secretly bring you here before I came. Keeping you with me all this time was far too dangerous."

"Nannan isn't afraid. Let those bad people come!"

Then Bofeng sat opposite Tang Yuehua.

"This is Nannan, my little sister. Her martial soul is Lovesick Heartbreak Red."

"Lovesick Heartbreak Red? What kind of martial soul is that?" Tang Yuehua asked in confusion.

Bofeng explained, "After I returned, I consulted quite a few records. It's a flower martial soul, the king of all flower-type martial souls. If the Clear Sky Hammer is the number one Tool Martial Soul under heaven, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is the number one Beast Martial Soul under heaven..."

"Then Lovesick Heartbreak Red is the king among flower-type martial souls. Its status is equal to that of the Clear Sky Hammer and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. Now do you understand why that Ju Hua Guan wanted to take Nannan away?"

Tang Yuehua nodded. This little girl was clearly no ordinary child. Lovesick Heartbreak Red?

"And..."

Bofeng took out the Clear Sky Token and handed it to Tang Yuehua. "If some old stubborn fools in the sect refuse, show them the Clear Sky Token. Use Father's name. Let's see if they still dare to object."

Tang Yuehua respectfully accepted the Clear Sky Token. It represented the supreme authority of the Clear Sky Sect; even the sect master could be removed at will by the Arbitrator Elder.

"Don't worry. With the Clear Sky Token, I can rest easy."

"Don't forget..."

"What?" Tang Yuehua put away the Clear Sky Token.

"Don't forget to return it to me. There are still some matters afterward that require the Clear Sky Token's help," Bofeng reminded her.

"Don't worry."

Then Tang Yuehua looked at Nannan with a smile. "Your name is Nannan, right?"

Nannan asked in a childish voice, "Brother, who is this pretty sister?"

Bofeng smiled. "She is Brother's..."

He deliberately glanced at Tang Yuehua. He couldn't exactly say she was his little niece. That would be a bit...

"She's Brother's family. Soon, you'll follow this sister to a safe place."

"Brother! Don't you want Nannan anymore?" Tears welled up in Nannan's eyes.

Bofeng rubbed Nannan's little head fondly. "It's too dangerous for you to stay by Brother's side. Go with this sister; she's Brother's family. She'll take good care of you. Don't you want to grow stronger? There are several people there who are no weaker than Sister Xiaobai. They'll teach you."

"But..." Nannan was still frightened.

"Don't worry. Brother will make time to visit you."

"I'll leave Nannan to you. I'll also be much more at ease with my future actions." Bofeng looked solemnly at Tang Yuehua.

Tang Yuehua nodded deeply. "Please rest assured. I'll take Nannan back to the sect immediately."
