Chapter 97 Long Time No See, Son
"This is a family portrait that the lady requested to be painted after the young master was born, but I never expected that it would be painted so soon—"
Seeing Gu Xuan lost in thought, Afu couldn't help but whisper an explanation.
"Okay, I understand. Go and cultivate. After absorbing the soul bone and immortal herbs, you should be able to break through to the Title Douluo level."
Gu Xuan snapped out of his reverie and gently patted Afu's shoulder, signaling him he could leave. "Yes, young master, this old servant will return to cultivate now."
Afu quickly resigned and left.
Gu Xuan glanced at Gu Rong, and seeing him pursing his lips and refusing to speak, he suddenly smiled.
"Tsundere!"
Gu Xuan shook his head, clearing his mind of the complex emotions, and waved his hand to take out a huge log as tall as a person.
After reviewing the details of the two figures in the portrait in his mind once more, he raised his hand and gathered sword energy at his fingertips.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Wood chips danced in the air, carried away by the breeze, and the ancient banyan tree's thoughts drifted away with them, as if it were seeing its worthless son again.
"Quan'er, you probably have no idea just how extraordinary Xuan'er is."
Gu Rong smiled as she looked at Gu Xuan, whose expression was serious, her face full of satisfaction.
Time passed slowly, while Gu Rong was immersed in his fantasy of meeting Gu Xuan's father, Gu Quan.
He had never dared to dream of it before, but now that his wish was about to come true, he found himself having so many things to tell Gu Xuan.
Looking at the seemingly dazed Gu Rong, Gu Xuan didn't react at all, concentrating on carving the statues of his "parents".
However, unlike traditional statues, Gu Xuan did not sculpt his parents separately this time. Instead, he sculpted their hands together, making them look as if they were holding hands. Although they are two individuals, they are closely connected through their palms.
The Rat Talisman can even turn physical objects like books into real ones. Neng Guxuan also wanted to try it out. If there were two of them, but they were considered as one entity, would the power of the Rat Talisman affect only one person or would it revive both of them?
It's both an experiment and a way to fulfill the ancient banyan tree's dream.
After all, choosing to see one means never seeing the other, so choosing is indeed a difficult test.
And it also fulfills a conjecture that had just surfaced in his mind.
Under Gu Xuan's manipulation, a man and a woman with completely different temperaments appeared before Gu Rong.
Looking at the person he often thought of, Gu Rong became even more silent.
Stopping his work, Gu Xuan looked at the statue, which bore a 99% resemblance to the original, and nodded with slight satisfaction.
The carving technique is getting better and better.
"Xuan'er, how about—"
At this point, Gu Rong hesitated, unsure how to face his son and daughter-in-law.
After all, in a sense, their deaths were indeed related to him.
Gu Xuan ignored Gu Rong's affectation and directly conjured a rat talisman, throwing it at his mother whom he had never met.
Compared to his father, who had a gloomy temperament, he preferred to revive this so-called "mother" first. If the joint resurrection failed, then reviving his mother first was probably his inner inclination.
As Gu Xuan moved, the rat talisman emitted a white light the moment it touched the statue.
brush!
Before the white light had dissipated, a sharp sword light shot out from where the statue had been, followed by a chilling aura that attacked Gu Rong and Gu Xuan respectively.
"You beast!"
Gu Rong, who had been looking forward to the resurrection of his son and daughter-in-law, turned pale upon seeing this scene.
He instantly teleported in front of Gu Xuan, shielding him behind him, and then, without even looking, threw a punch at Gu Quan.
Although sons are important, grandsons now hold a much higher status than sons.
This son attacked his grandson as soon as he was resurrected; he has absolutely no respect for the law!
They deserve it!
boom!
In just a moment, the attacks launched by Gu Quan and Sun Yan'er were shattered by Gu Rong's punch. Gu Quan, in particular, couldn't help but show joy after feeling his attacks being destroyed by a familiar force. But before he could be happy for long, that familiar aura, along with the familiar force, landed on his face.
boom!
Gu Quan originally wanted to let go of Sun Yan'er's hand and take the punch from his father alone, but he suddenly found that their hands seemed to be stuck together and he couldn't let go at all.
Finally, the two of them turned into rolling gourds and flew away.
"Hmph, daring to attack my precious grandson the moment he's resurrected? He's practically asking for death!"
Although Gu Rong was a little embarrassed that Sun Yan'er was unharmed, he didn't think he had done anything wrong and said arrogantly with his hands behind his back.
Although he had a stern face, you could tell from his various little gestures that he was in a very good mood.
"What the heck?!"
Gu Quan and Sun Yan'er got up from the ground, both covered in dust and dirt. However, Gu Quan was the one who suffered the most, while Sun Yan'er was only a little disheveled and not seriously injured.
The only thing that puzzled them was that their hands seemed inseparable, clasped tightly together as if they were an extension of each other.
In their memories, they should be under attack by the Spirit Hall, otherwise they wouldn't be attacking anyone they sensed indiscriminately as soon as they were resurrected.
However, to their surprise, the ancient banyan tree appeared at the crucial moment.
Although they were somewhat bewildered by being punched and having their hands fused together, the appearance of the ancient banyan tree meant that they wouldn't die.
They immediately forgot about their joined hands and quickly got up to look in the direction where they felt a familiar presence.
"Old Deng!"
"Father!"
Sure enough, the two of them immediately saw the figure that made them feel incredibly at ease.
But Gu Xuan's expression was somewhat strange.
Old Deng?
It seems that my cheap father is indeed not a normal person. What kind of good person calls their father "Old Deng"?
Gu Rong's cry of "You beast!" was truly well-deserved.
Gu Rong's initially pleasant mood instantly turned sour, and her face darkened as she slapped Gu Quan on the head from a distance.
What if his grandson gets corrupted by the things he sees here?
Snapped!
"Ouch!"
Gu Quan was so slapped that his head exploded and he fled in terror.
"I've called you Lao Deng, I've called you Lao Deng, I've told you not to pick up these bad habits, but you just won't listen, you just won't listen."
Gu Rong chased after Gu Quan and started punching and kicking him.
Gu Quan also wanted to run, but he was tied to Sun Yan'er and couldn't run at all. He could only circle around Sun Yan'er and hide.
Who is Ke Gu Rong?
Who can escape the person he wants to hit?
"Hey, hey, I was wrong, I was wrong, please stop hitting me."
Gu Quan jumped up and down, but he couldn't run away, so he could only beg for mercy while jumping.
"snort!"
Gu Rong put the whip back into his soul tool, snorted coldly, and looked at his son, who was both familiar and unfamiliar, and couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness in his eyes.
In the end, he couldn't control himself and hugged Gu Quan tightly.
"Long time no see, son!"
