128: Chapter 128 The most dangerous place is the safest place

Luo Xiaobao blinked his eyes, looking at the beautiful auntie.

The next second, he covered his small mouth, scrambled off the bed, and stumbled towards the door.

"Auntie is awake, Auntie is awake!"

Yan Huo was still outside scratching his head, wondering how to stop Ye Fan, but Luo Xiaobao exposed himself.

However...

"Awake?"

Fierce joy burst from Yan Huo's eyes, and he shoved Ye Fan aside at the doorway, charging straight in.

He even forgot to push the door open, crashing through it and leaving a human-shaped imprint.

The door, bearing the human-shaped pattern, held on for a moment before collapsing inward with a 'smack'.

Kicking up a cloud of dust.

The tiny Luo Xiaobao took the brunt of the dust attack. Opening his mouth to shout, he choked on a mouthful of dust, coughing repeatedly.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

His delicate little face turned crimson from coughing.

What made him feel even more aggrieved was that his favorite Uncle Huo rushed past him without even stopping to look at him.

Xiaobao was wronged, Xiaobao wouldn't say anything, Xiaobao just kept wiping his tears secretly.

Ye Fan watched leisurely from the doorway as the little fellow shuffled over to wipe his own tears.

When Luo Xiaobao saw Ye Fan at the door, he became even more wronged, his nose turning red.

"Uncle Fan~" His soft, sweet voice was enough to melt anyone's heart.

Ye Fan sighed, squatted down, and opened his arms.

Luo Xiaobao immediately threw himself into his arms, sobbing, "Uncle Huo is bad!"

As he sobbed, he wiped his tears and snot on Ye Fan's magic robe.

Ye Fan lifted Luo Xiaobao's bottom, stood up, and gave his soft little bottom a light pat.

"Bad? I think you're the worst! Do you know how worried your Grandpa, parents, and Brother Tian are?"

"How dare you run around by yourself?"

Tears still plopping down, Luo Xiaobao argued righteously, "Mom, Dad, Grandpa have Brother Tian, Uncle Xin, and Uncle Xuanfeng with them!"

"Here, there's only Uncle Fan and Uncle Huo. Of course, I have to stay and keep Uncle Fan and Uncle Huo company, otherwise you two would be too lonely!"

"Being lonely is very painful. Xiaobao used to be very lonely."

Ye Fan paused, rubbed the little fellow's head, "Even so, you can't make decisions on your own."

He took out a communication talisman. "Come, Xiaobao, send word to Grandpa and the others that you are safe."

Luo Xiaobao shyly leaned towards the communication talisman, his voice soft and sticky, "Grandpa, Daddy, Mommy, and Uncle Xuanfeng, Brother Tian, Uncle Xin, Ancestor Hefeng, Xiaobao is very safe. Don't worry!"

In Yunyin City, Luo Yunkai and the others were still waiting at the Cloud Carriage Service, having not disembarked from the flying boat.

They were waiting for news from Ye Fan.

If they couldn't find him in a short time, they would immediately set off back to Dan City.

Fortunately, they didn't have to wait long. Ye Fan sent a message back, and it was Luo Xiaobao's soft voice reporting that he was safe.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Linglong almost buckled at the knees and sat down, barely steadying herself by gripping the back of her wheelchair.

"Let's go back."

The Luo Residence in Yunyin City, even within the city which had expanded tenfold, was still considered one of the foremost grand residences!

Ye Wang had received the news early and was waiting at the entrance of the Luo Residence. Not seeing them arrive for a long time, he felt doubtful.

Worried that Luo Yunkai and the others might have met with some accident.

"Dad, why haven't big brother and the others returned? Didn't they say they arrived long ago?" Ye Xuner asked, confused.

Ye Wang shook his head, his worried gaze directed towards the Cloud Carriage Service.

Suddenly, he felt his daughter tug at his sleeve. Ye Wang looked down. "Xuner, what is it?"

Ye Xuner pointed towards the Immortal Cave diagonally opposite the Luo Residence.

Ye Wang looked over and saw the door of the Immortal Cave across the way quickly closing.

Ye Xuner pouted. "Dad, that guy surnamed Bai is so annoying! He's always sneakily looking at me!"

Ye Wang's expression tightened.

"Xuner, he watches you often?"

Ye Xuner nodded heavily. "Every time I go out, I can feel a gaze coming from that Immortal Cave."

Rage boiled in Ye Wang's heart, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

"The Qingyun Sect even yielded to the Master, yet Bai Shao still dares to provoke trouble! He truly doesn't know what's good for him!"

Killing intent surfaced in his eyes, but he forcibly suppressed it.

He couldn't rely on Little Fan's connection to cause trouble for the Master carelessly!

The Qingyun Sect had almost killed Young Master Xin, and yet the Master could easily let them go. It seemed the Qingyun Sect was not someone they could casually fall out with.

Ye Wang retracted his killing intent, stepped sideways to completely shield his daughter, ensuring not even a sliver of the peeping gaze from the Immortal Cave could reach her, then said in a deep voice: "Xuner, do not leave the city casually from now on."

Ye Xuner nodded. "Xuner understands."

"What happened, Uncle Ye? Why aren't you letting Sister Xuner leave the city anymore?" Xiao Tian's voice drifted over, accompanied by hearty laughter.

Ye Xuner's eyes lit up. She poked her head out, saw Xiao Tian and the others, and excitedly sprang out from behind Ye Wang, running towards them like a fluttering butterfly.

"Brother Xiao Tian, you're back!"

Xiao Tian caught the rushing Ye Xuner, his face filled with doting affection. "Yes, we are back."

Ye Xuner sprang out of Xiao Tian's embrace, peeked back, and the surprise in her eyes slowly faded.

"Where is my big brother?" Ye Xuner asked dejectedly.

Xiao Tian and Su Xin exchanged a look, offering a wry smile.

They knew this girl would be unhappy if she didn't see him.

"Brother Fan is still in Dan City learning Alchemy. If you miss him, you can go to Dan City with Ancestor Hefeng."

The city was completely safe, and Ancestor Hefeng didn't need protection anymore, so he should return.

However, following Ye Fan's request, Ancestor Hefeng had not left yet, awaiting Ye Xuner's decision.

Ye Xuner was overjoyed. "Really? Xuner can go to Dan City to find big brother?"

Xiao Tian smiled and nodded. "Of course! Ancestor Hefeng specifically didn't leave; he is still waiting for your reply."

"I'll go, I'll go, I'll go!" Ye Xuner hopped and skipped with joy.

Xiao Tian immediately said, "Alright, I'll take you to the Cloud Carriage Service to find Ancestor Hefeng."

Wrapping Ye Xuner up, Xiao Tian vanished like a streak of lightning, leaving only a patch of scorched black earth on the ground.

Ye Wang was startled, genuinely worried that his daughter could not withstand the might of the lightning.

"Uncle Ye, don't worry. Brother Tian's mastery over lightning power has long reached the pinnacle; he won't let Xuner get hurt," Su Xin spoke up.

Ye Wang gave a sheepish smile. "That's good."

It was good that Xuner was leaving Yunyin City; she wouldn't have to suffer harassment from that Bai Shao anymore. He believed Little Fan would protect his little sister Xuner well.

Ye Wang felt that as the Master returned with the Young Masters, the dark clouds hanging over them were instantly swept away.

He became even more grateful for his past choice, respectfully ushering the Master and the Young Masters into the residence like a household servant.

And introducing the new Young Masters along the way.

"Ye Wang pays respects to Young Master Xuanfeng, Young Master Wealthy, and Miss Linglong."

Chen Xuanfeng nodded faintly, exhibiting the demeanor of a prestigious family, which made Ye Wang secretly admire him. Truly worthy of being the City Lord of Dan City's maternal grandson; he was indeed extraordinary.

After Luo Yunkai and his group entered the Luo Residence, the door of the Immortal Cave diagonally opposite cracked open slightly.

Bai Shao, round and fat like a Reincarnation of a black pig spirit, glanced outside and quickly shut the door.

"Master, what should we do? It really is Luo Yunkai; they're back!"

"Cough!" After a weak cough came a calm and composed tone, steady as the Dinghai Divine Needle.

"What's there to fear?"

"The most dangerous place is the safest place. They would never guess that I would be here!"
