His cooking is so delicious that he's become the darling of the entire cultivation world.

Chapter 131 Arriving Home

This was Yun Ci and Chu Ziming's first visit to the Pill Pavilion.

As soon as she entered, Yun Ci smelled the fragrance of medicine. It wasn't a bitter smell; it was very pleasant, and she felt much better immediately.

Little White, Little Black, and Little Ginseng also looked curiously at the scene inside the Pill Pavilion.

Sniffing every now and then.

Elder Chengxuan was sitting on a stool when he saw the two young boys enter. His voice was deep and powerful, "You're back?"

The two boys nodded.

Chu Ziming chuckled, "Master, we're back. Did you miss me?"

Elder Chengxuan glanced at his own disciple.

After nearly a month away, his cultivation level had not improved.

They must have been too busy playing to train properly.

However, returning safely is more important than anything else than cultivation.

He truly missed his two young disciples.

Yun Ci and Chu Zimo were talking with two elders inside the Pill Pavilion.

They chattered excitedly about the interesting things they encountered along the way, gesturing wildly, and looked incredibly happy.

When it comes to differences, the two boys sometimes argue.

No one obeys anyone.

But as they talked, they made up immediately.

The two elders sat on large stools, listening with smiles, while Yun Ci and Chu Ziming sat on small stools in the middle.

It feels like there are two grandfathers and two grandsons.

Little White and Little Ginseng were in Yun Ci's arms, while Little Black was beside Yun Ci's legs.

The scene is warm and beautiful.

"Grandpa Huaiyuan."

Yun Ci called out, then looked up at Elder Huaiyuan and blinked.

"Hey! Hahaha!" Elder Huaiyuan quickly responded, bursting into laughter.

I was overjoyed at the sight of it.

Elder Chengxuan, who was standing nearby, looked over and opened his mouth.

His eyes revealed envy.

"From now on, you don't need to call me 'elder' or 'old man,' just call me 'Grandpa,' little Yunci. From now on, I'll be your grandpa, okay?"

Elder Huaiyuan said with a smile.

He would treat Xiao Yunci like his own grandson.

No, Xiao Yunci is his grandson.

Yun Ci, “…”

Thank goodness you didn't say you wanted to be my dad, or I would have thought you were joking.

In modern times, his grandfather was a kind grandfather, just like Elder Huaiyuan, and treated him very well.

Every time he went back to his hometown, his grandfather would take out cookies for him from an old-fashioned cupboard.

Those cookies weren't actually very tasty; they didn't have any filling, they were just ordinary cookies.

But that was the only snack his grandfather could give him, because the village store had very few kinds of food.

As she thought about it, Yun Ci's eyes gradually reddened.

The little boy sat on a small stool, sniffling, his big eyes gradually filling with tears.

"It seems that Xiao Yunci doesn't want you to be his grandfather. Xiao Yunci, how about Elder Chengxuan be your grandfather?"

Elder Chengxuan seized the opportunity to speak.

It's better to treat Xiaoyun as a grandson than an apprentice.

Thinking of his adorable grandson, Elder Chengxuan's dignified face broke into a smile.

"Little Daddy, don't cry. If you cry, I want to cry too. Let me wipe your tears. Little Daddy, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry!"

"Chu mi chu mi" Don't cry, Yun Ci

"Ow?"

"Yun Ci, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry. Come here, let me hug you."

Chu Ziming opened his arms.

Yun Ci gave Chu Zimo a reproachful look, "You silly idiot."

Chu Zimo, "???"

What did I do now?

Yun Ci is becoming more and more spoiled.

Even if he tries to coax her, it won't work.

Even coaxing him won't work now!

Elder Huaiyuan looked at Yun Ci, who was shedding tears, and felt heartbroken. “Oh dear, why are you crying? Were you frightened? Don’t be afraid. Elder Huaiyuan is not lying. Elder Huaiyuan has lived for over a thousand years without a Daoist partner or children and grandchildren. I really want you to be my little grandson. It’s okay if little Yun Ci doesn’t want to. Oh dear, don’t cry, don’t cry. Look how much our little Yun Ci is crying.”

Elder Huaiyuan wiped away Yun Ci's tears, making his hands wet.

Just as damp was that heart that had been calm for thousands of years.

Sigh, what can we do if Xiaoyun Ci doesn't want to?

He truly adored his grandson, Xiao Yunci.

Yun Ci thought for a moment.

He had no relatives in this world, and Elder Huaiyuan had always been very kind to him. He would treat Elder Huaiyuan as his grandfather.

Yun Ci lifted her bottom, took small steps to move the stool, rested her head on Elder Huaiyuan's lap, and blinked, "Grandpa."

Elder Huaiyuan stared in disbelief at the young boy who was obediently resting his head on his lap. "What did you call me?"

“...Grandpa.” Yun Ci was a little embarrassed.

"Hahaha! Good, good, good!" Elder Huaiyuan laughed heartily, shouting "Good!" three times in a row. Then he lowered his head, looking at Yun Ci's half-face, his eyes filled with a kindness that seemed almost tangible, as if it were about to freeze into water.

"Oh! Tomorrow, Grandpa will announce to the world that you are my grandson and invite all cultivators to my grandson-recognition banquet!"

He wants to hold the biggest and best grandchild recognition banquet!

He only has one grandson, so he definitely wants to give him the best!

Hahaha!

Elder Huaiyuan was overjoyed.

Seeing that Yun Ci had agreed, Elder Cheng Xuan naturally didn't want to be left behind, "Little Yun..."

"Hey, Chengxuan, stop trying to take my grandson from me. You have Xiao Zimo, and I have Xiao Ci. Isn't that perfect?"

Elder Huaiyuan quickly said.

Elder Chengxuan looked at his disciple, "..."

Yun Ci had already raised her head and looked at Elder Huaiyuan with clear eyes. "Grandpa Huaiyuan, there's no need for such trouble, and there's no need to announce it to the world."

Upon hearing this, Elder Huaiyuan refused.

"This is the most important thing. It must be announced to the world so that everyone knows that I have a wonderful grandson."

Elder Huaiyuan said with a smile.

Finally, after Yun Ci's nagging and rambling, the grandson recognition banquet will have to wait, but announcing it to the world is a certainty.

Yun Ci and Chu Ziming stayed a while longer before preparing to go back.

During this time, Yun Ci and Chu Zimo each took a pill.

Yun Ci felt that the fatigue from the long journey had suddenly disappeared.

My body is stronger than before the training.

Yun Ci also invited the two elders to dinner that evening, and the two elders readily agreed.

......

Shen Shi.

Yun Ci returned to her home after a month's absence.

Waaaaah, my beloved home, I'm back!

When Xiao Hei saw the familiar door, he excitedly jumped and bounced on the ground.

"Ow!"

I wonder if Kuroko is home right now.

Yun Ci thought for a moment and then pushed open the door.

The yard was spotless and everything was in perfect order.

The quilts were still drying on the pole, and the afternoon sun shone on them perfectly.

Hei Zi, dressed in a gray servant's uniform.

He was holding a broom and sweeping the yard with his head down.

Hearing the door open, I looked over.

Dark, emotionless eyes and clear, innocent eyes met across the distance.

In an instant, his dark eyes lit up.

Yun Ci smiled brightly, ran over, and pounced on Hei Zi.

"Kuroko, I'm back! I missed you so much!"

Hei Zi hugged Yun Ci tightly.

He also smiled.

"Yun Ci, you're back."

"I miss you too, Yun Ci."

After hearing this, Yun Ci let go of Hei Zi, her little face glowing white in the sunlight. "Hei Zi, let's go together next time. You'll definitely love the beautiful sea when you see it!"

Hei Zi looked at Yun Ci's bright eyes and said, "Okay, if you say we'll go, then we'll go."

Yun Ci nodded. "Mhm."

Hei Zi reached out and grabbed Yun Ci's clothes, his dark eyes looking at Yun Ci in front of him. "Yun Ci, I really missed you."

Yun Ci blinked, "Mmm, I know!"

Seeing Hei Zi's dejected expression, Yun Ci patted him affectionately.

Kuroko once said that he was Kuroko's first and only friend, and Kuroko must be very lonely after he's been gone for so long.

“Yun Ci.” Hei Zi’s eyes were very dark, and upon closer inspection, there was a hint of red in them.

"Hmm?" Yun Ci turned his head.

Hei Zi looked at Yun Ci and whispered, "Can I sleep with you tonight? I..."

Yun Ci nodded, "Sure, the bed is big enough."

He slept in a single bed with Kuroko.

A double bed is definitely not a problem now.

Sigh, Kuroko must miss him too much.

After hearing this, Hei Zi lowered his head.

The corners of his mouth turned up.
