The lord's mansion in Shuoxue City was in a dark night, and no one put out the fire. Qian Xueju was almost burned.

Fortunately, Qianxueju is an independent building. Although it is not far from the back garden, only Qianxueju's house caught fire. In addition, it had just snowed heavily yesterday, so the fire did not spread to other places.

Most of the back garden of the city lord's mansion was destroyed during the fight. Fake Chen Ji, who had lost all his helpers, was besieged by Mu Yan's puppet master. He wanted to rush out with all his strength, but after trying several times, he failed and added a few more lottery on his body.

The fake Chen Ji had to squeeze out the only poisonous smoke ball left on him. The poisonous smoke spread out, and the masters who besieged him soon fell down.

Mu Lin and Mu Yan, who had been watching the game not far away, rushed over with their swords. They had just taken the medicine made by Wannian Ice Lotus not long ago, and the poisonous smoke was ineffective for them. It was impossible for Chen Ji to leave!

Although Fu Chen Ji was still waiting for his substitute to bring Zhen Chen Ji's arm to save him, so far, not only has there been no news about his substitute, but even Qi Ningyuan has not come back. Fu Chen Ji already has a bad premonition in his heart.

Chen Ji's eyes were cold, and his left arm was poisoned without moving, and his right hand held a sword, quickly targeted Mu Lin, who was much worse than Mu Yan. For him, as long as he took Mu Lin, he could recover the defeat.

However, the fake Chen Ji soon discovered that his choice was wrong. Although Mu Lin was weaker than Mu Yan, it was impossible for the fake Chen Ji to quickly defeat him. Instead, he gave Mu Yan more chances to attack him, which made him feel a little panicked and could not focus on dealing with Mu Lin at all.

The poison on the fake Chen Ji's body has been used up, and he has been poisoned again. At first, he fought with Mu Yan for a while. Just now, those puppet masters consumed a lot of his internal strength. Now when they face Mu Yan, their original advantage has disappeared, let alone Mu Yan's side is two people.

So when Xiao Xinghan and Qi Ningyuan took Zhen Chen Ji to approach Qian Xueju and followed the sound of fighting, the three of them happened to see Mu Yan stabbing into the thigh of the fake Chen Ji with a sword. When the thigh of the fake Chen Ji screamed, Mu Yan drew the sword out and cut off the right hand holding the sword with a ruthless movement!

The screams pierced the sky, and the false Chen Ji's thigh was pierced. Mu Yan's sword was poisoned. He could no longer stand. His left arm was poisoned, his right hand disappeared, and he fell to the ground with trembling all over.

Mu Yan raised her foot, stepped on the heart of the fake Chen Ji, pressed her sword against his neck, and sneered: "Old Zazi, why are you not arrogant anymore? Don't you think you are very capable? You still want me to see your absolute strength? If you have the avatar, I promise to make you die ugly!"

Mu Yan hadn't noticed that Xiao Xinghan and Qi Ningyuan were back, and were nearby.

Zhen Chenji opened his eyes wide and looked at the tough young man not far away. The female voice that was so nice that it made his eyes full of tears. He grabbed Qi Ningyuan's hand and asked in a trembling voice: "A Yuan, is that a little flower?"

"Yes, that's your baby granddaughter. My cousin who is not a human being when I become cruel." Qi Ningyuan said quietly. He discovered that his father doesn't love his mother or mother. His grandfather originally loved him, but as long as he sees Mu Yan, he will be a genus grass.

Just like when he mentioned the baby kiss on the way back, Qi Ningyuan really didn't want to do anything with Mu Yan. He just wanted to seek justice for the previous blow. He hoped that his grandfather would tell him the truth, indicating that he was not talking nonsense before, but his grandfather said that he was talking nonsense and was sad.

Zhen Chenji looked at Mu Yan with an excited expression. They were not far away. Mu Yan had not seen him yet. He wanted to call Mu Yan, but he opened his mouth and couldn't make a clear sound even when he choked.

"Cousin!" Qi Ningyuan shouted.

Mu Yan turned around and saw them, stunned for a moment, then looked happy, and flew up. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of him, ignored Qi Ningyuan and did not look at Xiao Xinghan. Looking at Zhen Chenji who was supported by them, he smiled slightly and called out: "Grandpa."

Qi Ningyuan was actually a little surprised. After spending time together, he had discovered that Mu Yan valued love, but was also a little slow to warm up. He had his own principles for closeness and alienation. She did not value blood ties, and it was not easy to get her recognition.

Of course, Qi Ningyuan believes that Mu Yan has refused to call him cousin so far, but it is not because she does not recognize him, but just deliberately teasing him.

/> Now, when Mu Yan saw Zhen Chen Ji, she naturally called out Grandpa, even though this was their first meeting. Mu Yan didn't know how great comfort this Grandpa was for Zhen Chen Ji, who had suffered pain in the place where the light of day was not seen for more than 20 years.

When Zhen Chenji heard the word "grandfather", he let go of Qi Ningyuan and Xiao Xinghan, and couldn't help but hug Mu Yan and burst into tears. No matter how strong he is, he is still a flesh-and-blood person. God knows what he has experienced over the years. At this moment, his granddaughter stood in front of him, and even if he died for Mu Yan immediately, he would not blink.

"Grandpa, it's okay." Mu Yan hugged Zhen Chenji and patted his back gently. The words he said seemed to be coaxing Xiao Lianhua, because Xiao Xing'er never had to coax her.

Seeing the scene of the reunion of grandparents and grandchildren, Qi Ningyuan was moved and sad. On the one hand, he was sad for the pain and suffering of Chen Ji. On the other hand, he was sad that Mu Yan was so spoiled for his grandfather. Why was he so bad to his relatives cousin? He bullied him all day long.

"Little Flower" Zhen Chen Ji burst into tears, looking at Mu Yan with tears in his eyes. The first sentence he said turned out to be, "It's all grandpa who is useless, it's just for you to suffer."

Mu Yan looked at the weak and skinny old man in front of her, and felt very sad, her eyes turned slightly red, and she looked at Zhen Chenji and shook her head: "I don't suffer, it's my grandfather who suffered, I should come to see my grandfather soon."

Zhen Chenji is the first and only living direct blood relative Mu Yan has seen in this world for so long, besides Xiao Xing'er who came out of her own belly.

This feeling was the first time for Mu Yan. When she saw someone for the first time, she had uncontrollably strong feelings, which had never been before.

"Isn't it because my grandfather is sorry for you?" Zhen Chenji felt so heartbroken after hearing Mu Yan's words. His precious granddaughter, who should have been pampered, has been away for so many years, and has not known how much suffering or how much sin it has suffered, so he has come to Shuoxue City. He has to find ways to save him at great danger. He blames himself and wishes that time can be repeated. He must protect his children and grandchildren to the death.

"Ahem, grandpa and cousin, this is not a place to talk, and there is still a matter to be solved." Qi Ningyuan couldn't help but interrupt them. He felt that Zhen Chenji was now completely immersed in the excitement of seeing his granddaughter, but his body was too weak and needed rest. It was cold here, so it was better to talk well in another place.

"Okay." After Mu Yan finished speaking, he directly hugged Zhen Chenji. The old man in his arms was once a tall and strong man, but after more than twenty years of torture, he has become much shorter and is incredibly light.

"I'll do it." Qi Ningyuan wanted to take Zhen Chenji over, but he was just a subconscious act, feeling that he should do this kind of thing by a man.

"Get out of here, this is my grandfather!" Mu Yan rolled her eyes to Qi Ningyuan.

Qi Ningyuan looked at the sky speechlessly and wanted to stab himself! He knew very well how heavy his grandfather is now. Mu Yan was definitely not unable to hold him. Xiao Xinghan didn't even feel sorry for her. His grandfather also enjoyed it. He was so mean, disturbing his grandfather's closeness. He rushed to find a scolding.

"Xiao Hanhan, we brought those people who were poisoned and should still be alive, so I will leave it to you." Mu Yan said to Xiao Xinghan.

"Okay." Xiao Xinghan nodded and went straight to detoxify those people.

Mu Yan hugged Zhen Chenji and turned around and walked towards the false Chenji.

The fake Chen Ji fell to the ground, stared at by Mu Lin, and his eyes were red to look at the warm scene of Zhen Chen Ji and Mu Yan's grandchildren reunion. It was crazy!

Mu Yan hugged Zhen Chenji, walked to the side of the fake Chenji, looked down at him and said, "Old Zaizai, have you seen it? This is my grandfather. No matter how much you pretend to be, you are a Zaizai in your bones!"

The fat Chen Ji was so angry that he trembled all over. The grandparents and grandchildren in front of him directly announced that his careful planning and planning for so many years had all become a dream bubble!

Zhen Chenji glanced at the fake Chenji, his eyes full of hatred, but he said nothing and left everything to Mu Yan to arrange.

"Brother, take him with you and let's go." Mu Yan said.

Mu Lin nodded, lifted up the fake Chen Ji on the ground, and left with Mu Yan, leaving only Xiao Xinghan who was detoxifying the puppet masters.

Back in the house next to the city lord's mansion, Mu Yan put down Zhen Chenji, took his pulse, and frowned slightly. Zhen Chenji's body was too heavy and he had not seen light for many years. He was starving and cold every day. Before, Fu Chenji took his blood in his heart several times, and he didn't take good care of his injuries. If he changed someone, he might have died a long time ago. He just breathed and kept it.

Xiao Xinghan had already taken three medicines made of ten thousand-year-old ice lotus to Zhen Chenji, which made his body slightly recover. Otherwise, he would have fainted before he saw Mu Yan.

"It needs to be recuperated slowly, it's okay." Mu Yan didn't show her face, and she smiled slightly at Zhen Chenji. She still looks like she has changed her face, not her true face.

"I will die without regrets when I can see you." Zhen Chenji held Mu Yan's hand and looked at her and said.

"This is not possible." Mu Yan said seriously, "Seeing me is nothing. I have an invincible and cute little son, who is grandfather's great-grandson. Don't grandfather want to see him?"

"Great Grandson" Zhen Chenji's eyes burst out with light in an instant, "I want to see you!"

"Then let's take good care of your health, and we will go home in a few days." Mu Yan said.

Mu Lin took the fake Chen Ji to an empty room. He ignored his injuries and pulled out a dagger, sacked his tendons, threw him on the cold ground, and then went out.

Mu Yan asked Wu Chen Ji to drink some warm water first, take a break, and let Qi Ningyuan accompany him.

"Cousin, my grandfather doesn't want me to accompany me, I just want you to accompany me. Where are you going? Are you going to interrogate that old bitch?" Qi Ningyuan asked.

"When Xiao Hanhan comes back, I will interrogate the old bitch. I'll make some food for my grandfather now." Mu Yan went out after speaking.

Qi Ningyuan sat beside the bed, holding Zhen Chenji's hand, fiddled his messy hair aside, looked at his touched look, and sighed and said, "Grandpa, my cousin is so nice to you, and she cooks for you personally. I have known her for so long, but I haven't eaten the food she cooks. I'm so hungry now, but I will definitely not have my share later, so I'm so sad."

Zhen Chenji was so amused and laughed: "You little flower, how wonderful, you are, you are not allowed to sue her."

"Yes, yes, Xiao Huaer is the best granddaughter in the world. With her grandfather, I, as a grandson, can get out." Qi Ningyuan pretended to be sad and wiped the tears that did not exist at all.

"Ayuan, you are so adult, you have to be sensible." Zhen Chenji looked at Qi Ningyuan and said.

Qi Ningyuan nodded: "Well, I have to be sensible. But I am so hungry, so I will wait for my cousin to cook delicious food. If my grandfather can't finish it, can I give me a bite? Half a bite is OK."

Qi Ningyuan was actually deliberately making Zhen Chenji happy and said this. He was not hungry, it was true that he was a little sour. He originally thought that he was pretending to be so wronged. Zhen Chenji would definitely love him a little, but then he heard Zhen Chenji say, "That's not OK. Xiao Huaer made it for me specifically. I definitely don't have enough food and can't share it with you."

Qi Ningyuan lay on the quilt, buried his head, and said in a crying voice: "Grandpa, I am really sad, you don't care about me at all."

Zhen Chenji had a smile in his eyes, and he gently patted Qi Ningyuan's back with his old and thin hands: "Stop making trouble." He knew that Qi Ningyuan was pretending, Qi Ningyuan and Mu Yan were both good children, and they were not even willing to blame him, an incompetent elder, little by little. Instead, they tried their best to comfort him, make him happy, and not feel guilty.

Zhen Chenji once thought that God was going to torture him for the rest of his life, and his life would never have warmth or sunshine again. But at this moment, he was lying here, with his grandson pretending to be stupid and making him happy. His precious granddaughter went to make him delicious food. This feeling was a long time ago. The warmth he had forgotten made the ice in his heart slowly melt, and he felt that he had finally become a living person, not a walking corpse.

Soon, Mu Yan came in with a tray, and only a bowl of porridge was placed on it. Although it looked light, Qi Ningyuan felt that it was delicious, but he definitely didn't have the portion.

"Go aside." Mu Yan kicked Qi Ningyuan, and Qi Ningyuan stood up silently and "rolled" to the end of the bed and sat down.

"Grandpa, my cousin bullies me." Qi Ningyuan complained.

Zhen Chen Ji didn't even look at Qi Ningyuan, his eyes were all

Mu Yan.

At this time, Mu Yan had already removed her disguise and appeared in front of Zhen Chenji with her true face. Zhen Chenji looked at this face, which looked so similar to Feng Qingran, and there was Chen Yun's shadow on it. He couldn't help but think of his dead son and daughter-in-law, which made him feel sad again and tears burst out from his eyes.

Mu Yan put down the porridge, held Zhen Chenji and sat up, put a pillow behind him, wiped his tears with a veil and said, "Grandpa, don't be sad, it's all over. Eat something and think of your great-grandson. His name is Xiao Xing'er, he looks much better than me, very well-behaved and sweet-mouthed. You should take care of your health and hug him. When he calls him Taigong, wouldn't you be happy to think about it?"

"Xiao Xing'er? It's so cute when you hear Mu Yan's words." Zhen Chenji temporarily forgot the pain in his heart when he heard Mu Yan's words. He couldn't help but look forward to seeing the little grandson. He couldn't wait for a moment. He really wanted to have wings and fly to the little grandson immediately.

The porridge that Mu Yan cooked was very light because Zhen Chenji was not suitable for eating heavy food now. She fed Zhen Chenji and ate it slowly. The sweet and soft white rice porridge was the best thing Zhen Chenji had eaten in the past twenty years, which made his stomach warm and his whole body warm.

"Grandpa, let's have a sleep, I'll talk about it tomorrow." Mu Yan helped Zhen Chenji lie down and covered him with a quilt.

"Then tomorrow you will tell me about Xiao Xing'er, I want to hear it." Zhen Chenji was lying there now, looking at Mu Yan with his eyes, and he really looked like a child.

Mu Yan blinked: "Grandpa, wait a moment, I suddenly remembered that there is a gift to give to you."

After Mu Yan finished speaking, she turned around and went out. Zhen Chenji was waiting with anticipation. Soon after, Mu Yan came back, took a scroll in her hand, opened it in front of Zhen Chenji, and smiled and said, "Guess who he is?"

This is a portrait of Xiao Xing'er. Mu Yan and Xiao Xinghan took it with him when they went out. They would occasionally look at it to relieve their longing. When they brought all the weapons on the ship, they also brought the scroll together. Mu Yan just remembered it.

Zhen Chenji saw the little doll with purple eyes on the portrait, extremely beautiful and cute, and excited expression, and sat up all of a sudden, and almost hit the bed post.

"This is Xiao Xing'er." Zhen Chenji's hand trembled and stretched out, his expression even more excited than when he saw Mu Yan.

Qi Ningyuan rushed over from the end of the bed and looked up: "Cousin, you are really too much! Since you have all brought a portrait of your little nephew, why didn't you think about letting me take a look before? Let me see my god, this is my little nephew? Purple eyes? Why is it so beautiful?! So noble and mysterious! Grandpa, look, the little nephew's eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, are they all too perfect? ​​It's so cute when you smile, it seems like there are little stars flashing in your eyes! The little hands are so white, tender and so cute! This circle of gold bracelets is very famous for his noble temperament! The shapes of the gold bracelets are so unique, like me! Cousin, don't tell me that the bracelet is a snake? Which ghost hand painter painted this portrait? Why is it really similar? I feel that this little golden snake is staring at me."

Mu Yan said calmly: "What I drew is the Golden Snake King, it's alive. Isn't it cool to wear it?"

"Is my little nephew asking the Golden Snake King to recognize his master? Is it too amazing?" Qi Ningyuan exclaimed.

"Can I sleep with my little grandson?" Zhen Chenji couldn't move his eyes as he looked at the portrait.

Mu Yan rolled up the portrait, Zhen Chenji hugged it in his arms, lay down again, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and closed his eyes. Now he was really happy and relieved.

When he went out, Qi Ningyuan lowered his voice and said to Mu Yan: "Cousin, just forget it if you deliberately don't call me cousin! Tell you, I don't care anymore! I decided that as long as I can hear my nephew call me uncle, I will be very happy! My nephew is much cuter than you! Hehe!"
