122: Chapter 122 A bunch of little brats

Ye Fan sighed, caught between the two heavy atmospheres.

He handed Big Brother Jin to his father to appease his anger, then lowered his voice, "Father, leave this to me. Brother Blazing Fire and Brother Chu Feng aren't bad people."

Sure enough, the cold air surrounding Luo Yunkai dissipated.

He took a deep look at Ye Fan, seeing certainty in the boy's eyes.

If his son, who seemed gentle but was actually very guarded, showed such an expression, they must be trustworthy.

Without needing Ye Fan to say more, Luo Yunkai gestured for him to watch over his eldest grandson, then carried Jin Fugui toward the house below.

Reaching the door, he glanced at the panicked and injured Linglong. "The child is fine. Go heal your wounds."

Linglong's eyes lingered reluctantly on her son in Blazing Fire's arms before she forced herself to look away and follow Luo Yunkai.

Once Luo Yunkai had settled Jin Fugui, he looked at Linglong and frowned. "Didn't I tell you to go heal your wounds?"

Linglong shook her head, her gentle eyes fixed on the weak Jin Fugui. Seeing his much-thinner face, her eyes brimmed with tears.

"I want to stay here and care for the Young Master. Little Bao... I'll have to trouble you..."

Linglong was momentarily embarrassed and unsure of how to address Luo Yunkai now that the Young Master had reunited with his family.

"From now on, just call me Father, like Wealthy does," Luo Yunkai said with a neutral expression.

A look of immense joy flashed in Linglong's eyes. With a "thud," she knelt by the bed and kowtowed three times to Luo Yunkai with sincere force.

"Father!" Linglong's voice trembled with excitement.

...

After Luo Yunkai entered the house, Ye Fan flickered and appeared beside Blazing Fire.

Seeing a familiar face, Blazing Fire lowered his guard. With a simple, honest smile, he held the baby up boastfully. "Xiao Fan, look at how I coaxed him. He's not crying anymore."

Ye Fan's expression was gentle as his gaze swept over the wound on Blazing Fire's back. He took out a third-grade top grade Rejuvenation Pill.

"Brother Blazing Fire, give me the child first. Take a Medicinal Pill to heal your wounds."

Blazing Fire grinned, completely unconcerned. "It doesn't hurt."

Chu Feng's heavy atmosphere pressed in. "Eat it when he tells you to! That kid isn't yours, so why are you protecting him? Give him back!"

Blazing Fire scratched his head and reluctantly handed the child to Ye Fan. "Alright. Xiao Fan, be gentle."

Inside the house, Luo Yunkai, who was about to set Jin Fugui down, saw this through his Divine Sense and began to understand why Ye Fan called it a misunderstanding.

This Cultivator who snatched the child was clearly not very bright.

It didn't seem like an act.

Ye Fan reached out and easily took the little baby into his arms.

However, the little one really liked Blazing Fire. His tiny hands gripped Blazing Fire's robes so tightly that his knuckles turned white, refusing to let go.

"Uncle... want Uncle... warm, comfy..." the Little Milk Doll struggled to express his affection.

Seeing the child's adorable appearance, Ye Fan became even more gentle.

"Uncle is hurt. Let your little uncle hold you."

The Little Milk Doll blinked his large, grape-like eyes and pouted, but he still obediently let go.

A pair of large hands grasped the little hands the baby had just released.

Blazing Fire swallowed the Rejuvenation Pill in one gulp. Without even bothering to refine the medicinal power, he hurriedly grabbed the baby's soft, chubby little hands.

"I'll hold him, I'll hold him! I know how to soothe him, otherwise he'll start crying again—waaa waaa—really loudly," Blazing Fire said eagerly.

Ye Fan didn't mind. He sent a sound transmission to his father to ask for his opinion.

Luo Yunkai fell silent as the details he had previously ignored surfaced in his mind.

From what his Divine Sense had picked up, it seemed his eldest grandson really had been crying, and this simpleton had only come over to take the child then.

"Do as you see fit."

Understanding flashed in Ye Fan's eyes, and he let go, allowing Blazing Fire to take the baby.

Blazing Fire was overjoyed. Holding the fair, chubby baby, he let out a happy laugh.

The Little Milk Doll also giggled in his arms and even gave Blazing Fire a big "smack" of a kiss on the cheek, making Blazing Fire beam with such joy his face practically split.

Chu Feng snorted coldly. "You big idiot! You'd help count the money after being sold!"

Blazing Fire didn't feel like Chu Feng was insulting him at all. Holding the Little Milk Doll, he flickered into a beam of light and appeared beside Chu Feng, showing off the child smugly.

"Oh, Blazing Fire, so it was you who snatched my Eldest Nephew!" Chen Xuanfeng arrived on his flying sword, his laughter light.

Blazing Fire's eyes lit up. "Grand Elder, you're here?"

Chen Xuanfeng was pleased to be called Grand Elder. He struck a dignified pose with one hand in front and the other behind his back, but his eyes were unceremoniously peeking at the baby in Blazing Fire's arms.

Mhm, as expected of my Eldest Nephew, he has half my style.

Seeing Chen Xuanfeng peeking, Blazing Fire happily approached and offered the baby to him. "If you like him, you can hold him!"

Chen Xuanfeng couldn't maintain his composure and immediately broke character. He eagerly snatched the chubby baby with both hands, his grin stretching from ear to ear.

The Little Milk Doll pouted, his hands still reaching toward Blazing Fire.

He liked the warm uncle, not the chilly uncle!

Blazing Fire happily wanted to take him back, but Xiao Tian descended from the sky and cut in, grabbing the child first.

Xiao Tian placed his hands under the Little Milk Doll's armpits and lifted him high, his eyes full of affection.

The Little Milk Doll kicked his legs in wonder. "Fly... fly fly..."

Hearing his Eldest Nephew's request, there was no way Xiao Tian wouldn't comply. He soared into the sky with his Eldest Nephew.

"Ahhh..."

The Little Milk Doll let out screams of joy, accompanied by Xiao Tian's hearty laughter.

Inside the house, Linglong, kneeling by the bed, was terrified. She opened her mouth several times but silently closed it each time.

These were her brothers-in-law; how could she say anything?

She stole a glance at Luo Yunkai.

Luo Yunkai noticed her gaze, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

He strode outside!

Linglong quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Joy flooded her face as her affectionate eyes gazed obsessively at Jin Fugui on the bed.

"Young Master, Father likes our child very much, and so do your brothers. It's so wonderful..."

Su Xin arrived a step late. His Divine Sense swept over his angry father who was about to come out, and he immediately charged toward Xiao Tian on Black Vines, snatching the child away.

"Brother Tian! Our Eldest Nephew is still small! What if you scare him?" Su Xin criticized sternly.

Xiao Tian placed a large hand on the back of his head. "But our Eldest Nephew liked it."

Su Xin: "Even if he likes it, it's not allowed!"

With that, he slowly landed and walked up to his father, who had just stepped out of the room.

"Father."

Luo Yunkai was very satisfied.

"You're still the sensible one, A-Xin."

Luo Yunkai took the child.

The baby looked at the white-haired, white-bearded Luo Yunkai in wonder, reached out his small hand, and grabbed Luo Yunkai's beard with a hard tug.

"Hiss—" Luo Yunkai sucked in a breath of cold air, his voice unintentionally rising. "Let go... let go quickly..."

Blazing Fire bumped Su Xin aside, suddenly snatched the baby from Luo Yunkai's arms, and shielded him, quickly turning his back to Luo Yunkai.

Luo Yunkai looked at Blazing Fire's exposed back; the scratch marks from earlier were still there.

He really felt embarrassed to strike him again.

But...

He felt his chin, which was still stinging from when the child hadn't let go and pulled out a handful of beard hair as Blazing Fire forcibly took him. His gaze gradually became dangerous.

"Old man, don't be mad at Brother Blazing Fire. His Divine Soul is incomplete, and he's not very bright."

"Father, Brother Blazing Fire didn't mean it."

"Father, Blazing Fire was just worried about my Eldest Nephew. Please be magnanimous and overlook it."

...

This group of little brats was actually pleading for the culprit!
