"Take Xiaoxin with us!"
Ouyang Ji said.
"But..." Feng Xi worried that her father would be even angrier if he knew she and Ouyang Ji even had a child.
"What must be faced will eventually be faced. Besides, Xiaoxin is not only our child but also his granddaughter. He might not acknowledge me as his son-in-law, but he will definitely acknowledge Xiaoxin."
Ouyang Ji laughed.
Feng Xi nodded, then went into the study to bring Ouyang Xin out.
"Mother, I haven't finished writing my characters yet. You were the one who told me not to write anymore, so you can't punish me by making me write more," Ouyang Xin said, unaware of what was happening. All she cared about was finishing her characters so she could learn flying spells from Uncle Gu.
"We're going to see your great-grandfather later. You're not allowed to be naughty," Feng Xi instructed.
"Great-grandfather?" Ouyang Xin's little face was full of confusion.
"Great-grandfather is your mother's father. You have to call him great-grandfather," Feng Xi explained.
"So, Mother, you have a father too," Ouyang Xin said in surprise.
"You silly child, who doesn't have parents?" Feng Xi said, amused.
"But you never told me, how would I know?" Ouyang Xin said, feeling wronged.
Feng Xi and Ouyang Ji were both stunned. They exchanged glances, both feeling that they had let their daughter down in this matter. They had eloped happily, but they had never told their daughter that she had other relatives. Now, suddenly having a great-grandfather, it was normal for their daughter not to recognize or be close to him.
"It was my lack of consideration," Ouyang Ji said.
"I also have a responsibility," Feng Xi shook her head.
"Father, Mother, what are you talking about? Where's great-grandfather? Take me to see great-grandfather quickly."
Clearly, they were overthinking it. Ouyang Xin was currently only filled with curiosity about her never-before-seen great-grandfather, wondering what kind of person her mother's father would be, whether he would be like her father, loving her mother very much, and whether he would also love her.
"Alright, alright, don't be anxious, we'll take you there now."
Ouyang Ji held Ouyang Xin in his arms, held Feng Xi's hand, then nodded to Gu Changsheng and Yao Xian, and with a flash, they left this place where they had lived in seclusion for many years.
Yao Xian put down her needlework and walked to Gu Changsheng, saying, "Do you really not need help?"
Gu Changsheng shook his head and said, "This old scholar is still trying to hide his abilities from me. He could have become an immortal long ago, but in this mortal realm, whether he becomes an immortal or not makes no difference to him, so he's too lazy to take that step. But this time, his hot-tempered father-in-law has come to demand an explanation, so he has no choice."
"Let's go watch the show!"
After Gu Changsheng finished speaking, he put his arm around Yao Xian's charming waist and also left this small world.
...
Above Tianrao City, a burly middle-aged man stood proudly in the void. He wore golden armor, had an immortality seal above his head, a fairy sword at his waist, and emitted golden light all over his body, like a god.
He was the ancestor of the Immortal Clan, Feng Xi's father, Feng Tian.
At this time, the mortals of Tianrao City stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky.
Outside Tianrao City, an academy was located in the south of the city. This was the famous Wenju Academy.
At this time, Li Shanchang, the new top scholar of this year, held a scripture in his hand. He did not climb the high mountains to watch the immortals descending from the sky like the disciples of other academies, but instead carefully read the scripture in his hand.
This scripture recorded the poems of the Literary Saint Ouyang Ji, among which "Kill, Break, Wolf" was the most magnificent. It not only had the elegance of a literati but also the immeasurable spirit of a man standing between heaven and earth, unafraid of life and death.
"Kill, Break, Wolf" was his favorite. Even though the Southern Xiang Dynasty had not had a war for two thousand years, he could still feel a sense of killing from it. This aura seemed to have a mysterious and profound energy, making him refreshed, and even if he walked dozens of miles every day, he would not feel tired.
Even every night in his dreams, he would dream that his body was free from the shackles of the earth and could freely soar in the heavens and the earth. This feeling had become stronger and stronger recently.
This reminded him of a sentence left by the Literary Saint.
There is a free immortal in the book!
Can reading also lead to immortality?
Li Shanchang yearned in his heart, immersed in the scriptures, and had no interest in what was happening outside.
And Feng Tian looked at the mortals in the mortal world, with no joy or sorrow in his heart. Originally, it was impossible for him to have any interaction with these mortals in his life, but now that he learned that his daughter had eloped with a cultivator from the mortal world, he had to personally descend to the mortal world to take his daughter back.
His daughter was a princess in the heavens, how could she be reduced to being with mortals?
"Father!"
At this time, Ouyang Ji's family of three appeared in front of Feng Tian, and Feng Xi looked at her father with complicated eyes.
"Hmph, do you still know that you have a father like me?" Feng Tian snorted coldly, not even looking at Ouyang Ji, naturally ignoring Ouyang Xin in Ouyang Ji's arms.
"You're not allowed to be fierce to my mother!"
When Ouyang Xin saw Feng Tian scolding her mother, she immediately became unhappy and shouted angrily at Feng Tian.
"Mother?"
Feng Tian was stunned, then glanced at Ouyang Ji, snorted coldly, and then looked at Ouyang Xin, but he was stunned by this look.
Too similar, simply too similar, exactly like Feng Xi when she was a child, except that her nose was higher, and he didn't know who she inherited it from.
"You..."
Feng Tian's face sank, waiting for them.
Ouyang Ji put Ouyang Xin in Feng Xi's arms. Once in her mother's arms, Ouyang Xin said, "Mother, don't be angry, Xiaoxin has taught him a lesson for you."
Ouyang Ji took a step forward, stood in front of the mother and daughter, and said, "Father-in-law, as you can see, Feng Xi and I are already married and have a child. Xiaoxin, he is your great-grandfather, say hello quickly."
"I won't, he was fierce to Mother just now, he doesn't love Mother, Xiaoxin doesn't like him either," Ouyang Xin rarely disobeyed Ouyang Ji.
"Hmph, who wants a little girl like you to call me great-grandfather, I don't care, hmph."
Feng Tian folded his arms and snorted coldly, his words sharp, but a hint of his eyes always fell on Ouyang Xin behind Ouyang Ji.
"Xiaoxin, don't be rude," Ouyang Ji said in a deep voice.
Ouyang Xin pouted and was about to cry aggrievedly.
"Ouyang Ji, what are you, how dare you scold my granddaughter?"
Feng Tian was ultimately defeated by Ouyang Xin's aggrieved eyes and immediately shouted loudly at Ouyang Ji.
"Wah... don't be fierce to my father, you bad guy..."
When Ouyang Xin saw Feng Tian being fierce to her father, she burst into tears, crying so sadly that even Gu Changsheng and Yao Xian, who were hiding in the dark, couldn't bear to watch.
But this was someone else's family conflict, and they had no reason to get involved.
"I... I'm not fierce anymore, don't cry, don't cry..."
Feng Tian, who had originally come to demand an explanation, felt that he was the heinous person after hearing Ouyang Xin's crying. He wanted to walk up to Ouyang Xin and comfort her, but he was afraid of scaring her.
"Wah... you were fierce to Mother and fierce to Father, you are a bad great-grandfather, sob sob sob..."
Ouyang Xin not only didn't stop crying, but cried even louder. If Ouyang Ji hadn't shielded the situation here, I'm afraid the entire Tianrao City would have heard it.
"Great-grandfather is not fierce to your mother and your father, Great-grandfather was wrong, baby, don't cry," Feng Tian said quickly.
"Really?"
The little girl looked at Feng Tian with tears in her eyes.
"Really!" Feng Tian nodded solemnly, but sighed in his heart. Things had come to this point, and there was no turning back.
"Then Xiaoxin won't cry anymore," Ouyang Xin wiped away her tears and sure enough, she stopped crying.
"Father-in-law, this is not the place to talk, please come with me," Ouyang Ji said.
"Who is your father-in-law, you..."
"Dad!"
Feng Xi helplessly interrupted Feng Tian's words, signaling him to look at Xiaoxin.
Feng Tian immediately swallowed the words he was about to scold Ouyang Ji, and finally left together.
"They didn't fight!"
Gu Changsheng said regretfully.
Yao Xian rolled her eyes at him and said, "Do you really want them to fight?"
"Hehe, just kidding."
