Chapter 1653 - 1653 As Long as She Can Come Back, He Will Wait No Matter How Long It Takes
1653 As Long as She Can Come Back, He Will Wait No Matter How Long It Takes
Sheng Xiao could vaguely guess that although Yu Huang, the G.o.d’s Prophet Master, had predicted the reincarnation of the Divine Masters, she couldn’t clearly say the final outcome of the ten-year deadline. Perhaps she was also restricted by an unknown force. Under the restriction of that energy, she couldn’t reveal her future.
Therefore, Sheng Xiao could only gather information through indirect probing.
He wanted to know if Yu Huang could still partic.i.p.ate in their family’s future after the ten-year deadline ended.
Yu Huang looked up at Sheng Xiao with a gloomy gaze when she heard his question.
She guessed Sheng Xiao’s motive.
Yu Huang suddenly turned around and lay on her side. With her back facing Sheng Xiao, she said in a low voice, “I’m tired, so I want to sleep for a while.”
“Then, you can go rest.” Sheng Xiao wanted to ask Yu Huang something but hesitated.
The bed was narrow, so Yu Huang couldn’t rest well. Sheng Xiao lifted the blanket and stood up. As he tidied his clothes, he instructed Yu Huang, “I’ll go see how Ah Yang’s preparations are. I’ll leave with Xia Lie later. Remember to inform me immediately when you reach the Infant Spirit Continent.”
When he didn’t hear Yu Huang’s reply, Sheng Xiao looked back at her before he strode out of the room.
He pushed open the door and took a step out. Suddenly, he heard Yu Huang say softly behind him, “Brother Xiao, do you still remember what to eat during the new year?”
Sheng Xiao stopped.
He frowned as he thought about it. Then, he recalled a distant memory. The winter of the first year Yu Huang entered the Divine Realm Academy, she suddenly said that she wanted to celebrate the new year and asked Sheng Xiao to buy dumplings.
New Year’s Eve was a traditional festival that only existed on Earth.
Sheng Xiao said, “I want to eat dumplings.”
“Yes.” Yu Huang rubbed her head on the pillow. Then, she closed her eyes and said in a low voice, “Next time, I want to eat glutinous rice b.a.l.l.s with you.”
Sheng Xiao thought about it carefully.
Yu Huang had said that eating dumplings during the new year represented blessings, so they should eat dumplings during the new year to welcome the new year. Glutinous rice b.a.l.l.s were commonly eaten during the Lantern Festival and symbolized family.
Family…
Sheng Xiao lowered his eyes and smiled, but he didn’t turn around. As he closed the door with his hand, he said, “In the future, I will definitely teach Leftie and Rightie how to make glutinous rice b.a.l.l.s.” When she returned, she could eat the glutinous rice b.a.l.l.s personally made by the children.
As long as she could come back, he was willing to wait for ten years, a hundred years, or even a thousand years.
Upon hearing this, Yu Huang didn’t say anything, but the corners of her lips curled up.

When Sheng Xiao left, he didn’t come to say goodbye to Yu Huang.
Yu Huang woke up the next morning.
Ye Qingyang was resting on another bed. When he heard Yu Huang get up, he flipped over and sat up. “Mother, you’re awake!” When Ye Qingyang saw that Yu Huang was about to get off the bed, he hurriedly walked to the bed and carried her up before placing her in the wheelchair.
Yu Huang told him, “I’ve almost recovered, so don’t be so nervous.” This scene made Yu Huang have the feeling that she was a fragile vase.
Ye Qingyang said, “I want to be filial.” After Ye Qingyang pushed Yu Huang to the balcony to bask in the sun, he hurriedly brought over the nourishing soup that had been brewed and placed it in a sky-blue porcelain bowl. Then, he sat at the side as he watched Yu Huang drink it.
The scorching sun shone on Yu Huang’s body and her long hair draped over her shoulders as she lowered her head to drink the soup. As her perky nose was illuminated by the morning light, she looked sacred and n.o.ble. Ye Qingyang was mesmerized by her beauty.
Yu Huang teased him. “Why are you staring at me like that?”
“Mother, you’re so beautiful.” The current Ye Qingyang had regained Ling Xiao’s previous memories, so he no longer spoke to Yu Huang in a sarcastic manner. He felt that Yu Huang was beautiful, so he praised her directly.
Yu Huang held her bowl as she stared at Ascension Town in front of her calmly.
The buildings of the Infant Spirit Continent were different from those of other worlds. The buildings here were all made with special black stone mines, and the buildings were uniformly black. The clothes here were also dark and lavish. The women wore long dresses that revealed their waists and had long curly hair.
The men were not wearing suits. Instead, they were wearing retro-style suits and dark coats.
Overall, it was very similar to the Lou Lan architectural style of Earth.
Yu Huang admired it for a moment before suddenly tilting her head and asking Ye Qingyang, “What do you think of Jing Jiaren?” In his two reincarnations, Ye Qingyang had only had an emotional entanglement with Jing Jiaren. Although Yu Huang couldn’t admire Jing Jiaren’s character, she still respected Ye Qingyang’s opinion.
Ye Qingyang frowned but didn’t answer.
“Ah Yang, you can choose not to answer me, but don’t lie to me.”
“I did have a good impression of her and admired her when I was young, but I didn’t love her deeply.” Ye Qingyang took the empty bowl and spoon from Yu Huang’s hand as he said calmly, “We met when we were young. She was the genius prophet that the Divination Continent thought most highly of, and I was also number one in the Combat Department in the cultivation world. We were compatible and our talents were similar. We both had outstanding looks, so at that age, I naturally developed feelings for her.”
Ye Qingyang admitted this, but then he said, “But I definitely won’t continue a relationship with a woman who abandoned me. Not to mention, my feelings for her didn’t develop to the point where I had to be with her only.”
Ye Qingyang said rationally, “A partner who is compatible with me doesn’t need to be beautiful or have super combat strength. She can be ordinary and stupid, but she has to understand me and support me when I’m down in the dumps.”
“Just like Mother and Father.”
After Ye Qingyang grabbed Yu Huang’s wrist gently, he met Yu Huang’s gaze and said with a smile, “I’ve already seen the most loyal and reliable love in the world, so I’m not willing to compromise anymore. If I can’t find someone I really like, I’d rather be a bachelor. In the future, I’ll accompany Leng Yao to travel around and cultivate.”
Yu Huang was relieved to see that Ye Qingyang didn’t lose himself and still remained rational.
She teased Ye Qingyang, “You and Leng Yao were good buddies in your previous lives. In this life, your paths are different, but you guys still sympathized with each other.” There were many kinds of unbreakable relationships in this world. Other than love, there was also kinship and friendship.
The first time Ye Qingyang saw Sheng Xiao in the Doomsday Battlefield, he stood up for him. The first time he met Yu Huang in the long alley of time and s.p.a.ce, he, who had always been aloof, helped Yu Huang out of kindness. This was because they were family and there was an inseparable kinship between them.
Ye Qingyang was a notorious ghostly cultivator Prime Master, and Zhan Wuya was the most eye-catching young genius of the Spiritual Energy Dao. The two of them had different paths, but they admired and respected each other and become confidants. This was because they were true like-minded confidants with similar souls.
“I’m relieved to see that the two of you are alive and well and have returned to our side.” After Yu Huang held the wheelchair and stood up, she held the railing of the wheelchair with both hands and said to Ye Qingyang, “Let’s go to the Infant Spirit Continent.”
“That fast? Aren’t you going to rest for a few more days?”
