As Du Fan spoke, his eyes reddened, and tears began to flow.
Xue An also felt quite moved in his heart.
This former brother of the martial world turned out to be someone who knows gratitude, as he remembered clearly when Xue An gave him a few pieces of unwanted Dragon Liver.
Judging by today’s situation, he must have come to look after Auntie Pang as Xue An instructed.
Thinking of this, Xue An smiled slightly and casually handed over a cup of tea.
"Alright, you’re a dignified brother now. How can you cry like this? Have a cup of tea!"
Of course, Xue An had already diluted this cup of tea, or else with the potency of the Nine-Turn Spirit Mist Tea, Du Fan might have exploded from drinking it.
Du Fan hurriedly leaned forward, taking the cup with both hands.
Even though he didn’t know what kind of tea it was, the never-dissipating Spiritual Energy hovering above the cup indicated it was no ordinary tea.
This moved him to tears once again, and he found himself speechless in front of Xue An.
Zhuge Cang, standing aside, couldn’t help but chuckle and say, "Alright, hurry up and thank Brother Xue. To receive his reward twice is truly your good fortune!"
Only then did Du Fan realize that the old Taoist he thought was a fraudulent wanderer was actually a highly skilled recluse, and he felt deeply ashamed as he glanced at Zhuge Cang.
Zhuge Cang smiled slightly, unconcerned.
In truth, with his age and experience, he had long since ceased to care about worldly honor and disgrace.
Du Fan took a deep breath and solemnly said to Xue An, "Sir, I won’t say thank you. Your kindness to me is like life reborn. From now on, my life belongs to you!"
With that, Du Fan drank the tea in one gulp.
Xue An smiled faintly, saying nothing.
At the same time, Auntie Pang, who was in the kitchen washing dishes, heard Du Fan making a ruckus and walked out.
As she walked, she said, "Xiao Du, why are you shouting so loud? This old guy just finished eating...."
Auntie Pang was about to say Zhuge Cang finished eating and not to make things difficult for him, but her words came to an abrupt stop.
Because she saw Xue Anye standing, smiling at her.
"Auntie Pang!"
With a clatter, the plate in Auntie Pang’s hand fell to the ground and shattered, and she exclaimed, "Xiao An?"
Xue An nodded with a smile, "Yes, it’s me! Auntie Pang, I’m back!"
Upon hearing this, Auntie Pang leapt over joyfully and grabbed Xue An’s wrist.
"Is it really Xiao An? Am I dreaming?"
Xue An felt a warmth in his heart; this is family.
Then he chuckled lightly, "Of course it’s not a dream! I’m really back!"
Auntie Pang cheerfully shouted towards the kitchen, "Old Xie, stop what you’re doing and come see who’s back!"
Old Xie slowly shuffled out of the kitchen, smiling widely at Xue Anye.
This was the most intense expression of emotion he could manage.
Xue An sighed softly in his heart. Old Xie’s body had been severely damaged last time, and although Xue An recovered part of his scattered soul, the injuries left him in this state.
Xue An nodded, "Uncle Xie!"
"Come, come sit down! Xiao An, when did you get back? What about Yan’er and those two little girls?"
Even after sitting down, Auntie Pang didn’t let go of Xue An’s hand.
Xue An replied with a smile, "They’re all fine, but I just returned and haven’t had time to break the seal, so they haven’t come out yet. You’ll see them soon!"
