In the broad training courtyard of the Tian-Tang Clan...
A lot of people from different families came here constantly. The news of the return of the supply transport convoy made everyone happy. But when they knew what was on the carriage, their expressions changed, especially the families of the deceased. They all cried and mourned the passing of their sons and husbands.
Sob! Sob!
"Oh… my dear! Darling! My love!"
"Father! Father!"
Everyone was in sorrow. More than a hundred men all had their families. They were warriors who had only recently joined the clan but were well taken care of by allowing them to bring their families to live in the clan territories provided for them.
"Why… why!? Why does it have to be him? Look at him; he's still so young!"
"Auntie… No one wants this kind of thing to happen. It's all because of the bastards in the Jia Clan who sent the assassins to attack us!" The surviving master turned to the middle-aged woman, who was sadly lamenting over the corpse of her deceased son.
Bastards, Jia Clan!!!
Bastards, Jia Clan!!! Bastards, Jia Clan!!!
The sounds of scolding and cursing immediately rang out throughout the training courtyard. After the middle-aged woman had shouted, the others shouted after her, causing the sound to grow louder and louder.
Ahem!!!
"Everyone, calm down first. In this regard, I, Kong-Shi, will... Huh? My son, Zheng-Fu!?"
Suddenly, there was faint coughing as Kong-Shi came up to stop on the stage. He was preparing to apologize and pay for the families of those who had sacrificed their lives. But instantly, his gaze fell on a face that was very familiar, and the more he smiled back at him, the more he was sure who he was.
"That's you, Zheng-Fu? Oh... That's really you!" Without delay, Kong-Shi immediately rushed towards Zheng-Fu, who was standing near the transport convoy.
"Father, I'm back." Zheng-Fu rushed over to warmly hug his father with his regards as well.
"When did you arrive? And you..."
"Father, let's talk about that after we get home, shall we? For now, we should deal with this matter first." Zheng-Fu hurriedly interrupted because what his father asked was private. And it would not be nice to show their love and regard among the mourning crowd.
"For those who died, I'll give compensation to their families. And if he has children, the clan will fully encourage them to learn and practice martial arts. And, of course, I'll give his family the supplies of food for one year."
"Thank you, Master Kong-Shi, for being kind to us!"
"Yes. We thank the Tian-Tang Clan for giving us a good life today, and all of this is not your fault; it is the fault of the evil bastard Jia Clan!"
Yes... yes... yes!
Everyone was extremely angry right now. So, no one was interested in Zheng-Fu at all, although they were somewhat curious at first when Kong-Shi mentioned his name. But when they heard the rousing sound of cursing and condemning the Jia Clan, they completely forgot about Zheng-Fu's arrival.
"Father, I'd like to go home first. I want to go back and surprise Mother." Zheng-Fu saw that it was crowded around already, so he asked to go home. Besides, he still did not want to let anyone know that he was back because he could feel the shadows that reigned within his family.
"Alright! Your mother is at home. Uh... My son, actually, we've already moved to a new house. It's on the northern side of the clan, near the forbidden forest. When you get home, don't forget to drop by and see Qi-Er.
She would be very glad to know that you've come back."
"Yes, sir, Father. Uh... Father, I have a favour to ask for your help with. Please arrange accommodation for them. As for who they are, I will…"
"You don't have to say it, my son. Whoever they are, if you're the one who brought them, they can be considered reliable, especially Dong-Kuang* (*From this chapter on, the author would change Tong-Kuang's name to Dong-Kuang), and it seems that he will come back to the clan soon."
Dong-Kuang!?
Dong-Chen had a slightly thoughtful expression upon hearing the name 'Dong-Kuang.' He was very familiar with this name. But no matter how he thought, he could not figure out where he heard it.
"Respect, Master. I'm Dong-Chen. Pleased to meet you, sir." Dong-Chen clasped his hands together and bowed in greeting first, and then was followed by Xiao-Ming, Zhao-Ke, and Tian-Zhong. And for the rest of them, who were only supporting roles, they would not be mentioned in more detail.
"Ah! Nice to meet you too. Well, I'll tell someone to set up your rooms."
"Thank you, sir!"
"Dong-Chen, you and the others should stay here and help Father for a while. I'll go do my business first. You guys stay here, thinking that it's your own home. Ah... but don't think like that too much, especially Zhao-Ke. There are many rules here.
Don't do anything beyond the rules."
"Yes, sir!"
"Why is it me, Young Master, that should be especially careful?"
"Because you're such a snoop!"
Ha ha ha!!
"Well, I'll go first. See you later."
"Yes, sir, Young Master!"
After managing the accommodation for Dong-Chen and the others, Zheng-Fu did not hesitate, rushing to his residence immediately since he desperately wanted to see his mother. And along the way, his big cat kept crying out loud, for it liked to meet its mother as well.
"You can't come out right now. You can scare everyone. Wait, I'll send your mother over to you!!"
Purr!
At the entrance of Zheng-Fu's house...
Thump... thump... thump!!!
"Shhhhh…! Well! I'm going in right now!"
Creak!!!
Grrr!!!
But when the door opened, the first sound Zheng-Fu heard was a roar, with a huge figure standing in front of him. And in a split second, when the door opened as wide as possible, the roaring disappeared, turning into a moan that sounded like a dog seeing its master. And the owner of those sounds was none other than the mother monster beast, who, actually, was the mother of his big cat.
"Yo! Hu-Bai!" Zheng-Fu raised his hand and greeted her with a smile.
Thump... thump... thump!!!
Brab... brab... brab!!!
When Hu-Bai saw that it was Zheng-Fu, it immediately jumped at him and licked his face with regard. The reason why it threatened him in the first place was that Zheng-Fu's body had emitted a strong monster beast smell, making it think that it was an enemy or a beast invading.
"Enough... Quit licking now! Ha ha ha! Don't lick there! I'm ticklish, you know? Don't...Don't...
You can't!!! No, don't lick there! Absolutely not there!"
With the pleasure of meeting its old master, it licked Zheng-Fu all over, so his entire body was filled with saliva. And its tongue licked right between his legs, causing Zheng-Fu to have goosebumps.
"Why so loud, Hu-Bai!? Or was my husband home... Huh?" Hu-Bai's voice made Tang-Ling in the kitchen wonder what was going on. But when she came out to see Hu-Bai, she even made the spatula in her hand fall to the ground in an instant.
Clank!!!
"Zheng-Fu, my boy!"
Without delay, she immediately rushed over and hugged her son, ignoring whether the person in front of her was her real son or not.
"Mother!!!"
As for Zheng-Fu, seeing that his mother had already come out and was running to hug him, he instantly raised his hand to stop her.
"Mother, wait, wait!!! Let me go wash my body first. My whole body was filled with Hu-Bai's saliva!! Oh my, I told you to stop... Stop. I'm all soaking already.
Hey!!! You even creep up to my balls. If you continue to lick, I'm done, sure."
Zheng-Fu complained as he rushed into the house to take a bath since his body was filled with Hu-Bai's saliva. But as he was about to walk through the door, a figure suddenly stood in his way. And when Zheng-Fu looked up, he saw that the person standing in front of him was the girl he always thought of when he was lonely late at night.
"Qi-Er!?"
Zheng-Fu called out the girl's name, but the girl did not say anything. She just stood still and looked at him. The two of them stood glaring at each other, causing the surrounding atmosphere to become awkward. Tang-Ling, standing behind him, did not say anything, just stood still, letting them greet each other.
"Qi-Er... I'm... I'm going to..."
But suddenly, the young girl's figure rushed over and hugged him without a word. She only buried her face in Zheng-Fu's chest. Zheng-Fu did not push her away or say anything because he was startled. But soon, he raised his hand and stroked her head before speaking up,
"I'm back. I'm back as promised!!"
"Yeah..."
Just a short word came out of the girl's mouth, but it made Zheng-Fu feel unbelievably happy. And even if she did not say anything, he still felt good because the girl rushing over to hug him like this made his heart rejoice. And if anyone saw them, they would surely be very jealous to see a goddess-like beauty hugging a lad.
Even though Zheng-Fu was only twelve years old, he was already one hundred and seventy centimetres tall. Besides, his figure and face also looked good. He could even be called a handsome young man, except that his face looked childish.
"Let's go inside. I'm feeling all lousy now. Look at your clothes. They're all spattered with saliva," said Zheng-Fu after regaining consciousness.
"Yeah…"
The girl gave a short reply and then stepped back from Zheng-Fu's chest before turning around and running away into the house immediately in embarrassment. The reason why she hugged him was that when she wanted to approach him to scold him, she stepped on the saliva stains on the floor, causing her to slip, rush towards him, and hug him instead.
And when she entered Zheng-Fu's chest, the mood of scolding him completely disappeared and was replaced with something else. But as she regained her consciousness, she felt embarrassed and did not dare to do anything suspicious. When she had an opportunity to retreat, she immediately ran into the house.
"What is wrong with her? She looks so strange?" Zheng-Fu muttered, raising his hand to scratch his head in wonder at the strange expression of the girl.
Hehe!!
"You really don't understand women at all, just like your father!!" Tang-Ling, standing behind him, saw everything that happened to the two of them but did not interrupt. At this moment, she also knew exactly how Qi-Fu-Er felt since she had been an early-age young girl before.
"Huh... Don't understand women? What do you mean? I don't understand at all." Zheng-Fu asked his mother with a dazed expression.
"Nothing. Go take a bath. I will cook your favourite food for you."
"Yay!!! Thank you, Mother. Well, I'm going to take a bath first!!"
Tch!!!
"Crazy guy! Foolish boy! You know nothing! But anyway... welcome home!"
