Chapter 729: Oneness of Heaven and Humanity (II)
Bai Yue couldn't like Cai'er any more. Especially now that Cai'er's memories were back she was no longer the cold Saint Daughter of Samsara of that time, and behaved charmingly in front of the eyes of Haochen's parents. In front of Long Xingyu and Bai Yue's tearful faces, her own face was brimming with a smile of happiness.
Looking at the son, future daughter-in-law, and wife in front of his eyes, Long Xingyu suddenly turned his head, wiping once again the tears on his face. He seemed unaware his fists were clenched, with his right fist thumping his own chest with force. As tears of regret filled his eyes, he turned to face his back to Long Haochen—and the eyes of all three.
A large hand came onto his shoulder, "Father, what's up? Isn't our family now gathered? Let past remain as past. See, you have so much white hair already. You have to be sure to take better care of yourself, or else you won't match Mother."
Long Xingyu slightly lowered his head, his voice still choking, "Child, these years you have been missing must have been very painful."
Long Haochen let out a chuckle, "There's no such thing! We have only had a fortunate encounter after slaying the Panther Demon God. Everyone has been training in seclusion, and went in a state of deep meditation, which is why we have all taken so long to come back. Otherwise, we would rather have returned as early as possible."
Long Xingyu suddenly turned his head to look at him, seeing the warmth carried onto Long Haochen's smile, he could feel the purity of light from his son.
"You are not speaking the truth." Long Xingyu watched his son, his eyes flickering, as if wanting to say something but still bearing it in the end.
Long Haochen reacted with some shock, "Father, are you alright?"
Long Xingyu shook his head, and forced a smile on his face, "Oh, you're right. Let past remain as past. We should look ahead for the future: no matter the trials you have faced, you will always be this Long Xingyu's son, this thing won't ever change. Let us, parent and son, fight demonkind alongside each other."
Bai Yue couldn't help laughing now, "You have been repeating that Haochen is your son many times already, Xingyu. Do you still need to keep insisting?"
Long Xingyu's expression froze as he glanced at Bai Yue, complicated emotions filled his eyes. But it very rapidly came back to normal, "It may be because I have not seen my son for too long. It still feels unreal even now."
Bai Yue took Cai'er's hand, "I'm only concerned about when it is that Cai'er will really become my daughter-in-law."
Long Haochen and Cai'er's expressions reddened at the same time, and the instant their glances crossed each other, Cai'er immediately lowered her head yet again.
Long Haochen laughed gently, "Father, Mother, if you both agree, let's make the trip to the Exorcist Mountain Pass." In this area, marriage proposals were to come from the parents' generations. Both parties would hang out together, before seeking for their parents blessings to formally conduct their wedding.
Cai'er hesitantly responded, "Haochen, we still have a lot going on. No need to rush."
Haochen smiled, "That won't do, I've had this matter in my mind for too long. And even if we don't rush, Ying'er, Yuanyuan and the crew would be rushing. They are no longer as young."
"The new union has just formed, so there are really a lot of matters going on. But in some ways, I am just a nameplate as the union's chairman. The union's matters are handled under Grandfather and Temple Head Li's responsibilities. Our priority is to progress in strength in order to be able to challenge the Demon God Emperor and those peak demon powerhouses in a short future. After our currently most pressing matters are taken care of, we should have a time of tranquility. At that time we will conduct our wedding, this way it should be about time for the others to get settled as well. And when family matters are done with, we should strive for cultivating together without delay."
