Mornings on Undying Mountain were always pleasant.
Ye Fu held her teacup and looked at her son sitting opposite her, hesitating to speak.
Si Chen noticed his mother's gaze and raised his head. "Mother, is something wrong?"
Ye Fu hesitated, but asked anyway:
"Chen'er, your Third Uncle... are we really not going to look for him?"
Si Chen shook his head. "No need."
Ye Fu froze for a moment. "Why is that?"
Si Chen thought for a moment, then answered earnestly, "Third Uncle had so many aunties in the Lower Realm."
Ye Fu: "..."
"Now he's been ascended for so long, and the Immortal Realm is so friendly to Ascension-ers..."
Si Chen analyzed the situation calmly. "He might already have found us some new aunties."
Sitting beside them, Si Kai nearly spat out a mouthful of tea.
"What kind of twisted logic is that?!"
Si Chen looked at him in puzzlement. "It isn't twisted logic."
"With Third Uncle's temperament, he won't lose out wherever he goes."
"If we go looking for him and end up disturbing him..."
"That would spoil things instead."
Ye Fu opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but found herself at a loss for words.
Because she knew that younger brother-in-law of hers all too well.
With Si Shuo's ways... things might really be just as Chen'er said.
Si Kai coughed, trying to salvage a little dignity:
"You can't put it that way. Your Third Uncle is, after all..."
He stopped halfway through, unable to continue himself.
Because he couldn't think of any reason to refute it either.
Seeing his parents' expressions, Si Chen offered a word of reassurance:
"I can sense that Third Uncle is fine."
"He's living quite well."
After saying that, he sensed him again. "And his cultivation is rising pretty quickly too."
