Young Song: The Hidden Sword God, Han Yi and Her Child Arrive at the Door.

"Time to go home for dinner!"

Little Nuomi cheered and rode on Su Changqing's shoulders like a victorious little general.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the family of three (plus two freeloaders), casting long shadows.

Su Changqing held his daughter's little feet in one hand and naturally took Li Hanyi's hand in the other.

Li Hanyi's body stiffened slightly, and she subconsciously tried to break free.

After all, in public, she was still the aloof Snow Moon Sword Immortal, and this "holding hands" behavior was simply too shameful.

"Don't move."

Su Changqing applied a little force, but instead of loosening his grip, their fingers intertwined even tighter. "Didn't we just say we'd never separate again? What's wrong with holding hands? Who dares to object?"

Li Hanyi's cheeks flushed slightly as she secretly glanced around.

Those onlookers who were previously gossiping about the show suddenly became extremely tactful, looking up at the sky, down at the ground, or chatting with the air next to them, pretending to be blind.

joke!

The truth has been exposed, who would dare to have a problem with this guy?

"Hmph, scoundrel."

Li Hanyi spat lightly, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly. She let him lead her, and her steps became lighter.

This feeling of being protected so fiercely... doesn't seem so bad?

"Brother-in-law, wait for me!"

Behind him, Lei Wujie limped after him, carrying the heavy sword case in his hand, his face full of flattery, "Um... is the 20% discount still valid? Can I order two meat dishes tonight?"

"It depends on your performance."

Su Changqing didn't even turn his head.

Xiao Se walked slowly at the back, toying with the bamboo chopstick he had picked up, which was now broken in two.

A faint, yet chilling, trace of sword intent lingered on the chopsticks.

"Incredible..."

Xiao Se murmured softly.

"Even the lingering aura resonated within my hidden meridians. If I could stay by this person's side... perhaps my crippled martial arts would one day see the light of day again?"

Thinking of this, a resolute glint flashed in Xiao Se's usually half-asleep eyes for the first time.

He's determined to cling to this powerful figure!

……

Back to the tavern.

Su Changqing kept his word and didn't put on airs after his impressive performance. Instead, he rolled up his sleeves and went into the kitchen.

"Let's have hot pot tonight!"

Su Changqing announced, "Congratulations to our Nuonuo on her first victory, defeating the little genius from Leimen!"

Lei Wujie: "..."

Brother-in-law, are you being polite? Can we please not bring this up again?

However, when the fragrant red oil broth was served, Lei Wujie instantly forgot all his frustration.

"It smells so good!"

Lei Wujie's mouth watered. "What's this smell? I've never smelled it before!"

"This is called Sichuan hot pot, with a unique secret recipe."

While slicing mutton rolls, Su Changqing instructed, "Xiao Se, go wash the vegetables. Lei Wujie, go chop firewood. Han Yi, you... you just sit here, don't use the knife, be careful not to hurt your hands."

Li Hanyi was about to help chop the vegetables when she heard this, and the knife in her hand paused for a moment.

She's a dignified sword immortal, wielding a sword like a god, how could she possibly cut her hand?

"You think my cuts don't look good, right?" Li Hanyi saw right through his little scheme.

"No way."

Su Changqing said seriously, "I'm just worried about you. These two lads can handle the rough and tiring work."

Lei Wujie and Xiao Se: "..."

So we're just free labor, huh?

However, I'll tolerate it for the sake of that hot pot meal!

Soon, all the dishes were served.

The family of three, along with two guests who came to freeload, sat around the steaming hot pot.

"Cheers!"

Little Nuomi held up a small cup full of juice and shouted in a very serious manner.

"Cheers!"

Everyone clinked glasses.

At this moment, there are no sword immortals, no princes, no grudges or affections.

Only the warmth of everyday life can truly soothe the human heart.

Seeing this heartwarming scene, Li Hanyi's eyes welled up with tears.

She once thought that she was destined to grow old alone and be accompanied only by swords.

But unexpectedly, happiness came so suddenly and so intensely.

"What's wrong? Is it too spicy?"

Su Changqing noticed her unusual behavior and picked up a piece of blanched tripe for her. "Here, try this. It's best when it's cooked seven or eight times up and down, making it the crispest and most tender."

"Um."

Li Hanyi lowered her head, stuffed the tripe into her mouth, and hid the tears in the corners of her eyes.

very nice.

These days are wonderful.

……

however.

The tree wants to be calm and the wind does not stop.

While laughter and joy filled the Changqing Tavern, a massive uproar had already erupted outside because of the man named "Su Changqing"!

Unparalleled City.

"A single chopstick cleaves the heavens? Destroys the moonlit nights and blooming flowers?"

On the city wall, the young man carrying the peerless sword box looked at the message in his hand, his eyes blazing with an unprecedented light.

"Interesting...this is so interesting!"

Wushuang abruptly stood up, the sword case on his back humming. "I thought the only ones in this world capable of making me draw the Great Ming Vermilion Bird were those old guys. I never imagined that such a monster was hiding in Snow Moon City!"

"Master! I need to go to Snowmoon City!"

Wushuang turned to look at Song Yan Hui, her eyes resolute, "I'm going to meet that Chopsticks Sword Immortal!"

Song Yan was about to stop him, but seeing the burning fighting spirit in her disciple's eyes, she could only sigh in the end: "Go. But remember, don't underestimate your opponent. That person's strength... is unfathomable."

at the same time.

Dark River Headquarters.

"Su Changqing...is his daughter his weakness?"

Su Changhe sat on the dark throne, a piece of intelligence clutched in his hand, a chilling smile playing on his lips. "Everyone has weaknesses. Since we can't win in a direct confrontation, then... we'll resort to underhanded tactics."

"Pass down the order: activate 'Operation Bone-Corroding.' This time, I'm going to give him a gift he'll never forget!"
