Chapter 103: The Will of the Wolf, Huren Brothers' Conversation!
"This... this is... the Heavenly Wolf Sacred Seal of our Helián family, you are...", The long sword in Helián Shuò's hand fell to the ground with a clang, he took a step forward and tightly grasped Helián Nuò's shoulder, his eyes already involuntarily overflowing with tears.
Although they were biological brothers, Helian Nuo still didn't expect his brother's emotions to be so intense. Despite feeling a bit uncomfortable with Helian Shuo's violent reaction, he was deeply moved in his heart. He could feel that Helian Shuo's behavior was not fake, and this second brother truly missed Helian Nuo extremely!
He stretched out his hand and patted Helian Shuo's shoulder, and Helian Nuo repeated in a low voice: "Second brother, I am your younger brother Helian Nuo! At that time, I was less than one year old and escaped from Tianfeng due to the change. Who would have thought that this escape would last for ten years? Fortunately, everything has passed, and we two brothers finally met!"
"Ano, is that really you Ano? I thought you were... Ah, never mind, don't say anything. Quickly tell Second Brother, how have you been all these years?" In fact, from the moment he saw the Heavenly Wolf Sacred Mark, Helian Shuo had already confirmed Helian No's identity, it was just that Helian No's appearance was too sudden, and it was inevitable that he felt a bit hard to accept.
He Lian pointed to the unconscious Lan Youzhu and smiled bitterly: "Second brother, this is not a place for detailed discussion. Let's first wake up Youzhu and then find a place to have a good chat. I also have many things I want to ask you!"
"Oh, right!", He Lianchuang patted his forehead and smiled apologetically, then bent down to take out a jade bottle from his bosom, carefully pouring out a pill which he gently fed into Lan Youzhu's mouth.
It wasn't long before Lan Youzhu slowly came to, and knowing he had done something wrong, He Liancheng didn't wait for her to ask questions, but instead voluntarily recounted the whole story in detail. Contrary to He Lianuo's expectations, Lan Youzhu, who was usually hot-tempered, behaved extremely quietly in front of He Liancheng, not only did she not hold him accountable for knocking her out, but also kept turning her head to secretly glance at He Liancheng, with a very shy expression.
"This sentimental sister, wouldn't she have taken an interest in Second Brother as well? But it's no wonder, Second Brother's appearance is far more handsome than that Thousand Fantasy Young Master, even I have to admit my inferiority! ", He Lianuo was secretly laughing in her heart, completely unaware that the charm of a ten-year-old child like him couldn't compare with the mature He Lianshuo. Lan Youzhu had taken an interest in him earlier probably just because she was curious about his heroic performance in the Beast Fighting Arena."
Lan Youzhu and He Lianchu didn't know that He Lianuo was secretly gossiping in her heart. After learning that He Lianuo wanted to find a place to have a good chat with her second brother, Lan Youzhu quickly volunteered to lead the two of them to a wine house with a very elegant environment. It has to be said that women have an innate talent for navigating and shopping that far surpasses men's abilities. Although they had just passed by here, He Lianuo hadn't noticed the existence of this wine house at all.
They ordered a few dishes at random, and the two brothers couldn't wait to ask each other about their situation. He Lianuo recounted everything that had happened since he left Tian Shuang without reservation, telling his second brother. When it came to Nan Huan Yue and the pursuers falling into the lake together, the expressions of the two brothers were somewhat gloomy, feeling the atmosphere was a bit heavy. Lan Youzhu hastily changed the subject, begging He Lianuo to tell him about the interesting things that happened in the Youyue Forest.
For some reason, when mentioning the Youyue Forest, what first came to Helian's mind was not Helian Chu, but Chongchong. As for Helian Chu, who was skilled in martial arts, Helian didn't have much to worry about, and only missed him a little. However, gentle and weak Chongchong might encounter danger at any time deep in the Youyue Forest. Moreover, Helian had left in a hurry and hadn't even had time to bid farewell to Chongchong before departing. Now, Chongchong was probably still worried about Helian's safety.
He Lian Nu let out a deep sigh and intentionally skipped over everything related to Chong Chong, slowly starting to talk about the interesting things she and Xiao Lang encountered in the You Yue Forest. When she mentioned Jiu Bao and Qiu Qiu, Lan You Zhu couldn't help but smile, as she had personally seen these two little guys before.
The sky gradually darkened, and although he had intentionally shortened his words, Helianuo still spoke for two hours before finishing his account of the past decade. Helianshu's face was heavy with emotion as he patted Helianuo's crippled arm, saying in a firm tone: "Third brother, rest assured that from now on, with Second Brother here, no one will dare to bully you again. Those who have bullied you before will also be made to pay the price. Unfortunately, Ling Xiao is already dead; otherwise, I would immediately return to Tianfeng and borrow several tens of thousands of soldiers from Father to flatten that Astral City!"
He Lian Nuo smiled, took a sip of tea and continued: "Forget it, when will the grievances end? Besides, Ling Xiao is already dead, so I can also put down this hatred. My only goal now is to pass the test of Sheng Hun Academy smoothly, then cultivate my soul in peace and let myself become stronger slowly, and make He Lian clan revive! As for other things, I really won't think about them anymore. Alright, stop talking about me, Second Brother, why did you also come to participate in the test of Sheng Hun Academy? How are Father and Eldest Brother now?"
"When it comes to Father, you two are really similar, even your dreams are so consistent!”, He Lian Shuo smiled and poured tea for He Lian Nuo, “Like you, Father has always dreamed of restoring the prosperity of the He Lian clan a thousand years ago. Although He Lian is now in control of Tian Xiang, Tian Xiang is just an empire in the mortal world. For our family, who once commanded the winds and rains in ancient times, everything in the mortal world is just fleeting clouds. Only by truly restoring our former power can we be recognized by the soul masters and regain our lost glory. My coming to Sheng Hun Academy this time is also a step for Father to expand the He Lian clan!"
"Right, our Hélán has been dormant for too long, it's time to let the soul masters of Yuèyuè see the potential of Hélán. Second brother, you're still young and have already reached the fifth rank of Soul Guard, even in the Sacred Soul Academy where geniuses gather, you can be considered a top-notch expert, right? Although I'm only a sixth-rank Soul Attendant, but one day, I'll definitely stand at the peak of Yuèyuè! At that time, we two brothers will create history for Hélán together!" Hélán Nuò's tone became somewhat excited, since Nánhùang Yuè sacrificed herself to protect him, the two words "Hélán" had become his totem, fighting for this totem was his duty as Hélán Nuò!
"Don't forget about our big brother! I've got some good news for you, our big brother He Lian Po is also in the Sacred Soul Academy, but unlike me, he's already been a formal student here for three years. Although he's only 25 years old, he's already advanced to the Soul Master level. I heard he's quite a notable figure within the academy! To catch up with him, we'll have to work harder! Unfortunately, it won't be possible this time, as Big Brother is currently in seclusion deep within the academy, cultivating his soul. Next time, when we enroll, we should be able to see him!" He Lian Cheng said with a smile, revealing a piece of news that left He Lian Nuo utterly astonished.
"Really? Is big brother also here? This is great, we three brothers can finally get together!", He Lianuo excitedly patted the table, he was truly feeling the closeness from blood ties for the first time. Although Lei Shuo and Sang Xiao were also his sworn brothers, they couldn't give him this feeling of being connected by blood. This kind of feeling could only be given by kinship.
Three people chatted and laughed, talking all the way into the deep night. Suddenly, He Lian Shuo became excited and called for a pot of wine to drink with his brother. Who knew that after this drink, they couldn't stop? Although it was only He Lian Nuo's second time drinking, he surprisingly had a natural talent for resisting alcohol. After downing a pot of wine, he didn't react at all, but instead worriedly advised He Lian Shuo not to get drunk! This made He Lian Shuo, who originally planned to just take a sip, feel a bit embarrassed. To prove himself, he ordered two large jars of wine and instructed the waiter to bring over the largest sea bowl. With one mouthful after another, he competed with his brother in drinking. The two brothers were both young and vigorous, and once they started competing, they couldn't stop. Lan Youzhu tried to advise them several times but was harshly scolded by He Lian Nuo. Helpless, she moved to another table, took out a silver coin, and instructed the waiter to go find a horse carriage, in case the two brothers couldn't make it back to the hotel after getting drunk.
"Second brother, do you know how bitter my life has been all these years? Although I've had Fourth Uncle by my side, I wasn't qualified to experience everything a child should. My daily task was to get stronger, stronger, and even stronger. There were many times when I couldn't bear the bitterness and wanted to give up, but thinking of Mother, I gritted my teeth and persevered. Other children at the age of ten would be in their parents' arms, eating snacks, playing house... But what about me? All I have is this!
He Lianuo was clearly drunk, his words slurred as he suddenly stood up and took off his shirt. What entered He Lianshuo's eyes, apart from the Heavenly Wolf Sacred Mark, were countless scars of all sizes!"
One of them pressed his younger brother into a chair, and Helian Shuo said emotionally: "Old three, I know you've had a hard time these years. You and Helian have been through too many hardships, but it's precisely these hardships that made us mature early. Your eyes don't have the dependence and innocence of a child under ten years old. This is cruel, but it's a reality we can't avoid. Fortunately, you're still alive, Helian is still passing on, and the will of the Tianlang is still continuing! Alright, let's not say more. Raise your glass, and let's swallow all our sorrows with wine!" As soon as Helian Shuo finished speaking, he shook his head, raised his cup, and drank it in one gulp!
"Right, down the hatch!", Hellenor stood up, and in one breath drank all the strong liquor in the bowl. As the last mouthful went down his throat, he slid softly to the bottom of the table and fell fast asleep in an instant.
"Haha! Although your drinking capacity is not bad, you still can't beat me!" He Lianchuo hugged the wine jug and burst out laughing, then his body swayed and he fell head-first onto the table!
