A Failure's hopeful Journey

Chapter 285: First Milestone.

After the discussion with the system, You Xi Wang was uneasy, he then decided to put aside such thoughts and started to meditate. It was morning when he woke up from his cultivation. The system has gone silent as if it did not exist. The boy did not bother with it and walked out of the room. 

He headed to his room and saw Jojo standing outside his room. This child has also grown up and he acknowledged Mu Qingling as his master and started to learn medicine. He was surprised to see him here. he asked, "Jojo, how come you are here?"

Jojo was sent to live in the Chen Family as he was young and still had a lot to learn from his master. The kid smiled and said, "Uncle, the master is here with me. She is not in the guest hall. She found out that you came back from the lost sector and wanted to come and meet you."

You Xi Wang nodded and without any delays followed the little boy to the guest room. On the way, the two people talked about a lot of things that happened in the past few months. Soon, they arrived at the guest room where Mu Qingling was having tea with the elders of the house. She saw You Xi Wang walking in and a beautiful smile surfaced on her face. 

The boy also rushed to her arms, like a kid. He held her tight while she did the same. Chen Qianbei was like his mother but Mu Qingling looked 90 percent similar to Chen Limao and unlike Qianbei she was not cold. His aunt did love him a lot but the fact that his granny loved him more was obvious. 

Nobody spoke as the two people embraced each other, they broke up only after a few minutes. the boy spoke first, I was planning to go to the Chen house today, how come you came here first?"

Mu Qingling smiled and said, "My bunny came back from the lost sector so how can I not come over and see him? Also, I fought with your old grandfather. Would you let me stay here for a few days?"

Chen Qianbei almost spurted out the tea she had in her mouth. You Xi Wang chuckled, "How come I don't find anything new with this? What did he do this time Moon Fairy?"

The old lady smiled as she caressed his face gently, she said, "He forgot our anniversary. You tell me was I wrong?"

You Xi wang shook his head with a smile and said, "But If I remember correctly, your anniversary was two months ago, right? How come you fight now only?"

Mu Qingling sighed and narrated the whole event. Turned out Old Master Chen, suddenly wanted to take her out for a dinner. When Mu Qingling asked Why was he so romantic? The old man directly said that it was their anniversary. The lady tolerated him forgetting about it but did not expect him to have a face and even admit a wrong date for it. The two quarrelled and finally the lady left home to chill. 

You Xi Wang glanced at his aunt who nodded, seemingly confirming the case. You Xi Wang said, "We are family, Grandma, why are you being so formal? You stay here for as long as you like."

His words brought a bright smile on the lady's face. She said, "I knew I did not love you in vain." 

The rest of the people smiled. The atmosphere became merry when You Zhichi came in, followed by All of her sisters-in-law. they were all introduced to Mu Qingling and the lady was very happy to see her grandson having such beautiful fiancees. After some time You Zhichi said, "Gougou, I will be going back to Array Hall. Would you like to come and meet Grandmaster?"

You Xi Wang nodded and said, "Our meeting has been long due. Let's go." Then he bade farewell to the others and came to his room with his sister. He wanted to pick up some clothes before leaving. he asked, "Big Sis, are we going to fly all the way?"

The celestial maiden shook her head and said, "Silly boy, I have called the family airship over. Also, where are the two little devils?"

Her brother chuckled and said, "Flexing to the kids in the family. After meeting grandmaster I will take those who want to participate in the ancestoral exam to the elf dimension. You should also gather your talented people in the array hall for the trip. It would be beneficial to them. But have them all oath bound so that this matter is kept a secret." 

You Zhichi nodded and said, "Yes, I was about to talk to you about it. Also, I have something else too." her voice suddenly became hesitant. You Xi Wang turned back and saw his sister frowning, he instinctively used Mind Reading and was shocked.

Then he took a deep breath. he said, "Big Sis, I also miss mom and dad. Don't worry if there is a way to bring them back I will not hesitate to lay down my own life. Yet we do not know if and when this will be possible. Don't worry let us take one step at a time."

You Zhichi nodded and they she gawked at her brother, "When did you learn this?"

He replied casually, "Grandmaster left me some hints, I connected the dots and the picture became clear. It is all inside the array knowledge you learn. You will figure it out."

The girl sighed and shook her forehead. She said, "Let's pick up the two devils and then we will leave."

The two siblings walked to the training field where Celestia and Lily were practising with each other while the other kids gazed at them with a reverence. You Xi Wang smiled and he crouched down among the children. He asked, "Tell me my little devils. Do you also wish to be like them?"

The kids nodded, You Xi Wang smiled and said, "After two days, I will come back and teach you all exercises, but remember they will be very painful. I will not let you stop once you start."

A cute guy said, "Uncle, you do not worry, we will be fne." the rest followed, "YES"

You Xi Wang's long journey was now reaching it's first milestone.
