Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Fangtian Halberd, Empowers Me with Filial Piety

Chapter 217 Fifth Stepmother, Angelic Holy Sword? Mom, are you an angel?
"Mother?"

Yali blinked, looking at the boy who suddenly knelt in front of her, somewhat surprised.

I haven't even started guiding them yet!

Just then, Zang Xin's voice suddenly rang softly in her ear.

"My disciple lost his father and mother at a young age, and has been raised by his two older sisters all these years. It's a pity... alas!"

Halfway through his explanation, Zang Xin himself sighed.

If he weren't unsuitable for adopting sons, there wouldn't be a chance for Yun Ming to become an adopted son.

This child's background is truly pitiful...

Of course, this pity is also inseparable from the talent that Jiang Yi has shown; otherwise, people like them would at most just glance at him.

"Good boy..."

Ya Li's heart softened, and she reached out her hands to gently pull Jiang Yi's head to her side, soothing him softly.

"Let bygones be bygones. From now on, this is your home."

As Yali spoke, she turned to look at Yunming beside her and gave him a wink.

"Brother Ming?"

"Cough cough!"

Yun Ming understood, coughed lightly, stood up and walked over, standing beside Ya Li, and looked down at Jiang Yi who was still kneeling.

"Yali and I have always wanted to adopt a godson, and your teacher has already agreed. Would you be willing?"

After saying that, he and Yali simply looked at Jiang Yi quietly, without urging him.

As usual, Jiang Yi glanced at Zang Xin beside him.

A teacher is like a father, so we should ask for his opinion. What we just heard was just a private conversation between the two of us.

"Ok!"

Zang Xin nodded with a smile, considering this a pleasant story.

Although Ya Li already had a goddaughter, it was still a bit lacking. Now that Jiang Yi has made up for it, it's a perfect ending.

"Godfather and Godmother, please accept my bow!"

After receiving Zang Xin's nod, Jiang Yi no longer hesitated, solemnly bowed, and kowtowed three times.

When he looked up, his face showed three parts reverence, seven parts longing, and ninety parts joy buried deep in his heart.

(Inner monologue:)
With two godfathers and godmothers all at once, isn't this a huge windfall for me?
"Good good!"

Yun Ming laughed loudly, his expression full of satisfaction.

"From this day forward, you are my adopted son, Yunming!"

Ya Li bent down and helped Jiang Yi up, patting the dust off his clothes.

"Get up, child."

"Thank you, godmother!"

Jiang Yi stood up, a bright smile spreading across his face.

At the same time, the long-absent system notification sound rang in his mind again.

[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have successfully become the godfather of Douluo Yun Ming, the Sky-Supporting Douluo, and have obtained 1 Godhood Fragment. Do you wish to claim it?]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully become the godmother of Holy Spirit Douluo Ya Li and have obtained the Angelic Holy Sword x1. Do you wish to claim it?]

"???"

Jiang Yi's smile paused almost imperceptibly for a moment before quickly returning to normal.

Angelic Holy Sword?

He glanced at the gentle and quiet Yali in front of him, a strange feeling rising in his heart.

No... Yali's mother, you're an angel, aren't you?

And our fifth adoptive father, those god fragments, you're all in pairs.

No! No!!

Jiang Yi had a thought and habitually shut down the system.

That's something we'll work on later; right now, it's time to test our acting skills.

He collected his thoughts, looked up at Yali's mother, and gave her a friendly smile.

"Xiao Yi, don't be nervous."

Ya Li reached out and pulled Jiang Yi into her arms.
She naturally noticed Jiang Yi's slight pause just now, but she didn't pay attention to it, assuming that he just hadn't adapted yet.

"Na'er, come here."

Yali waved to Na'er again and gently gave her some instructions.

"From now on, Jiang Yi will be your older brother. You must listen to your older brother, understand?"

Na'er came over and was also embraced by her.

The two of them, one on each side, nestled in the warm embrace of the Holy Spirit Douluo, and couldn't help but exchange a glance.

Eyes wide open.

"I was here first, godmother! I should be the older sister!"

Na'er pouted, looking at Jiang Yi who was snuggled up in her arms, and said indignantly.

What brother?
Not content with taking my sister, he even wants half of my godmother's share! How wicked! I'll never call him brother again...

"Silly girl, your brother is older than you, of course he's your brother." Ya Li was amused by the little girl's pouty appearance and gently pinched her cheek with her fingertips.

"I……"

Na'er pouted, wanting to argue, but a glimmer of light suddenly flashed in her eyes.

The next moment, she pouted and reluctantly turned her head towards Jiang Yi.

"Okay, brother! Brother!"

Na'er gave a soft snort, called out to Jiang Yi twice perfunctorily, and then buried her head in Ya Li's broad chest.

Then she kept her head down and didn't say a word, as if she were just a shy little girl.

"Sister Na'er!"

Jiang Yi nodded slightly and responded, thus quietly moving up a generation.

"They are all good children!"

Seeing that the two had accepted each other, Yali felt relieved, and a relieved smile appeared on her pretty face.

She tightened her arms slightly, holding the two people in her arms even closer, like a mother animal protecting her cubs.

The scene was warm and touching.

"Hahaha, that's great! It's a rare occasion, Brother Zang, how about we share a drink?"

Looking at the figures of the mother and her two children opposite him, Yun Ming felt a surge of joy and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Although they only adopted one son and one daughter, at least they have both a son and a daughter, which fulfills a long-cherished wish of the couple.

Yali saved countless lives during the plague that swept across the continent, but she herself was left with a chronic illness.

The source of life is damaged, and the possibility of conceiving offspring is almost lost.

After they got married, in order not to upset Yali, he never brought up this topic with her.

"Alright! Since Brother Yun has spoken, then don't hold back any good wine."

Zang Xin also burst into laughter.

Although he had some reservations about Long Yeyue, Shrek Academy and Tang Sect were the only way to make money in the Federation, back to back.

With Shrek Academy at the forefront, the Tang Sect can secretly make a fortune.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the Spirit Pagoda is currently at its peak after separating from them. If Shrek Academy and Tang Sect fall, the Federation will target the Spirit Pagoda next.

If the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold; if the rabbit dies, the fox will grieve.

"Brother Zang, please!"

Yun Ming laughed and reached out to put his arm around Zang Xin's shoulder, but Zang Xin subtly dodged to the side.

"Brother Yun, please!"

Zang Xin remained calm and raised his hand in greeting.

Yun Ming paused for a moment, then belatedly coughed and quickly withdrew his hand.

I almost forgot...

"go!"

Yun Ming took the lead and walked into the pavilion, followed by Zang Xin, and Ya Li also led Jiang Yi and Na'er to follow.

Soon, a family dinner began, and there was not much restraint during the meal.

There was no Tang Sect Master, nor Sea God Pavilion Master, only two old friends who had known each other for many years.

"Back then, so many people... some left, some scattered."

"My elder brother is the same. He has been guarding the Blood God Legion for decades and has never come back once."

Yun Ming downed another cup of dragon blood wine, without using his soul power to counteract its effects, letting the intense warmth rush to his head.

His face was slightly flushed, whether from the effects of the alcohol or from being overwhelmed by emotions, he refilled his glass and raised it to Zang Xin.

"Zang Xin, this cup is a toast to you on behalf of your elder brother."

"..."

Zang Xin remained silent for a moment, then raised his glass in response.

A cup is drunk to the last drop, and countless old stories remain unspoken.

On the other side, instead of the two men drinking together, Ya-li sat quietly to the side, accompanied by her two children, her eyes filled with gentle contentment.

She had longed for this scene countless times, and now it had finally come true.

She always felt guilty towards Yunming because she had not been able to fulfill her duties as a wife due to her old illness.

That's why she had previously suggested that Ming-ge accept Leng Yao-zhu and the others...

However, Yunming disagreed, so the two of them always treated each other with the utmost respect.

"Eat slowly, Na'er!"

Yali gave the silver-haired girl a reproachful look, wondering if she was afraid of choking on her food eating so fast.

"Okay, godmother~"

Na'er nodded obediently and indeed slowed down.

Yali was slightly taken aback by his obedient demeanor.

Has this girl changed her personality today?
