Poules et chiens volent dans le chaos et la renaissance

Chapitre 97

Lan Qi, however, kept his head down, intently playing with the chess pieces, wanting to see how the Second Young Master would handle the situation.

Seeing her detached demeanor and Lie Chifeng's impatient expression, as if he were about to draw his sword and strike, the Second Young Master coughed again, raising his hand to his lips. Just as he was pondering how to respond, he heard footsteps approaching.

"Miss, the soup is ready." A middle-aged woman dressed as a servant came over with a bowl of soup. "This fish soup has been simmering over a low flame for three hours. It's very fragrant and nourishing." As she spoke, she poured the soup into a bowl and placed it in front of Lan Qi.

The fish soup was snow-white and fragrant, tempting anyone who smelled it, but Lan Qi frowned in disgust.

Upon seeing this, the maidservant couldn't help but urge, "Miss, even if you don't like it, this soup is good for the child, please drink it."

child?

Lie Chifeng and Yun Wuyai looked at each other in bewilderment.

What child?

“This stuff is very fishy, I won’t drink it.” Lan Qi turned her face away from the fish soup.

The maidservant couldn't help but look at Ming Er.

The second young master raised his hand to press his forehead, then personally took the fish soup and handed it to Lan Qi, saying softly, "This fish soup will be even fishier when it's cold, so you should drink it while it's hot."

Lan Qi turned her head, her brows still furrowed, clearly unwilling to drink.

Ming Er scooped up a spoonful of soup and held it to her lips: "Just think of it as drinking dragon's nectar and phoenix's nectar."

Lan Qi chuckled upon hearing this, "Why don't you go catch some dragons and phoenixes to make soup?" Her tone seemed disdainful, but she still opened her mouth to take the spoonful of soup, then reached out to take the bowl and finished the fish soup in a few gulps.

"If you really want to drink dragon's broth and phoenix's nectar, then I'll go to the palace another day and ask the emperor and empress to cut a piece of meat to make soup." The second young master spoke these chilling words in an elegant manner and refined voice.

"Not only that, next time I must snatch that chessboard from Yulong Pavilion in front of that Feng guy!" Lan Qi snorted. It was unclear whether she was genuinely still thinking about that chessboard, or just annoyed that Feng Yibai always thwarted her plans.

“Fine, even if you want to steal his ‘Lan Yin Bi Yue’, I’ll help you.” The Second Young Master Ming agreed without lowering his standards to her level, given her current unpredictable mood.

Over there, Lie Chifeng and Yun Wuyai were still puzzled by the "child," and upon hearing the two's words, which sounded both sweet and sour, they couldn't help but get goosebumps. However, the two remained completely at ease, as if this had been going on for many years.

Seeing that Lan Qi had finished her soup, the maid said, "Miss, you've been sitting here for two hours now. Let me help you walk around a bit, otherwise you'll have a hard time later."

Lan Qi nodded, raised her hand to help herself up with the help of the maid, and Ming Er also considerately reached out to help her up.

As soon as she stood up, both Third Master Lie, who remained unmoved even if the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and Young Master Yun, who could handle everything with ease, widened their eyes and looked shocked.

Previously, Lan Qi was sitting behind the table, hidden by a tablecloth, but now that she stood up, her figure was immediately exposed.

Third Master Lie pointed at Lan Qi's round belly and exclaimed, "You...you...you...you're pregnant?!"

Since Master Lie had spoken, Young Master Yun naturally swallowed the gasp that was about to escape his throat, but he couldn't immediately hide the look of astonishment on his face.

The two of them were not surprised that Lan Qi was dressed in women's clothing, but when they suddenly saw the once charming and wicked Lan Qi now with a big belly, how could they not be shocked?

That day at Qianbi Mountain, when Lan Qi learned she was pregnant, she felt a strong aversion and almost immediately wanted to abort the child. But the instant the thought arose, Feng Yi's image flashed into her mind, and her heart clenched. Then, for some reason, she thought of Ning Lang. With his kindness, if he knew she was pregnant, he would surely be overjoyed; but if he knew she had aborted the child, he would foolishly feel sorry for her and grieve for her. Thinking of this, her usually cold heart wavered. Reaching the foot of the mountain, she looked around, unsure which way to go. It seemed that taking that step would be making a decision, and would she regret it later? Would she hate him?

Ming Er, who had been silently following beside him, suddenly sighed softly and said, "Of course I know we will never be good parents, so I won't stop you from doing whatever you want, but..."

Hearing Ming Er's unusually gentle tone, Lan Qi couldn't help but turn her head and see that his eyes, which were always veiled in mist, were clear as water at that moment, reflecting her clearly.

"In this life, as long as we stay together, I don't care about anything else. Just take care of yourself." Ming Er's voice was calm to the point of being cold, but his eyes were so warm as he looked at her.

He didn't care about his own flesh and blood, but he worried about the danger to her if she aborted the fetus. At that moment, looking at that person, Lan Qi felt a warmth in her heart, and then stood silently. After a long time, she shook off her confused emotions, made a decision, and said in Lan Qi's otherworldly and unrestrained manner: "From this moment on, wherever I am, you must follow."

They understood each other deeply; he knew why she said those words, and she knew he understood. Whether it was out of caution or reliance, she said it naturally, and he simply smiled and agreed.

Because no matter how unpredictable the world may be, no matter how cold, selfish, and treacherous they may be at heart, they have already decided that the other person is the one who will accompany them to the end, and even if pain follows, they will never regret it in this life.

Even though Lan Qi was dashing, she refused to expose her pregnant belly to the martial arts world, so she hid in Pear Blossom Tomb. Ming Er naturally accompanied her, and for several months, there was no news of the two in the martial arts world. Meanwhile, Lie Chifeng had mastered his ultimate technique and wanted to challenge the two to a duel, but he couldn't find them. He had no choice but to seek out trusted confidants from both families. Ming Ying and Lan Tong knew that this Third Master Lie was different from ordinary people, so they asked their family heads for permission. Ming Er and Lan Qi thought that given Lie Chifeng's temperament, if they didn't come forward, he might eventually resort to force. Neither the Ming nor Lan families had anyone who could match him, so they had someone guide Lie Chifeng to their location.

Lan Qi had been feeling awkward about letting Lie Chifeng know that she was pregnant, but seeing the surprised expressions on Lie Chifeng and Yun Wuyai's faces, she immediately felt it was all worth it.

But before she could even feel smug for long, Third Master Lie exclaimed, "So you can have children too!"

Upon hearing this, Lan Qi immediately retorted, "This young master..." But realizing his mistake, he changed his words, "Is there anything in this world that I cannot do?"

Master Lie ignored Lan Qi's words and turned his thoughts in another direction. He looked Lan Qi up and down and after a while said, "With your natural talent, your child will definitely have extraordinary bones. If you nurture him well, his martial arts achievements will surely surpass his master's."

The three people present were speechless upon hearing what Master Lie said.

"Brother Lie, can you spare a moment your thoughts from martial arts?" Lan Qi sighed. "Can you think about the things that ordinary people think about, like gold, silver, jewels, power, and beautiful women?"

But Third Master Lie didn't listen to her and blurted out something that left the three of them speechless and their veins bulging.

"Since you can have children, then you should give me one too. With our combined talents, our child will surely be exceptionally gifted. We will nurture him carefully from a young age and pass on the martial arts skills of our two families. He will undoubtedly become the number one master in the world."

Upon hearing this, Yun Wuyai covered his face. He had known for a long time that Lie Chifeng was a martial arts fanatic, but he was just too fanatical! How could he even utter such words?

After Lie Chifeng finished speaking, he felt a chill run down his spine and inexplicably sensed a murderous intent. He immediately gripped his knife and turned around, only to see Ming Er with a half-smile on his face. A sudden unease ran through him, and he vaguely sensed that something was amiss.

After a moment of stunned silence, Lan Qi first pushed aside the dumbfounded maid, then slowly walked to Lie Chifeng, smiling alluringly: "Brother Lie's suggestion is excellent. There's no time like the present, let's..."

"cough!"

Lan Qi's words were suddenly interrupted by a loud cough. She turned her head and looked at Ming Er, who had a faint smile on his face but unfathomable eyes, and pouted: "Why are you coughing? You've coughed countless times today."

"Oh," Ming Er replied calmly, his smile and gaze unchanged.

Lan Qi felt inexplicably guilty, but she was unwilling to back down. So she glared at Lie Chifeng with her green eyes and said, "You, Lie Chifeng, how dare you insult me and ruin my reputation? Tell me, how do you want to compensate me?"

Even the most oblivious Lie Chifeng finally realized the truth. There was no need to guess; the child in Lan Qi's belly was undoubtedly Ming Er's. And according to worldly ethics, his words were indeed frivolous and disrespectful. However, the demonic Lan Qi had never gained much advantage over him, so he simply retorted, "Your demonic reputation is known throughout the world; what good reputation do you have left? Besides, you're pregnant before marriage; you should be classified as a wanton harlot." This left Lan Qi speechless.

“Brother Lie,” Ming Er suddenly spoke, his smile as usual, “As the saying goes, a guest is a guest, and a guest should always bring a gift.” His hazy eyes glanced lightly at Lie Chifeng’s back, which sent a chill down Lie Chifeng’s spine. “Your Blazing Sun Blade is a treasured weapon of the martial arts world. Why don’t you leave it here today?”

Yun Wuyai paused in his tea-sipping, then set down his cup and turned his gaze over, a hint of anticipation in his eyes. He wondered if he would have the honor of witnessing a duel between two of the world's most unparalleled masters today.

Lie Chifeng remained silent, looking at Ming Er.

Ming Er looked at Lie Chifeng with a calm expression.

Lan Qi looked at Ming Er with some surprise, but her heart felt as if it had been gently brushed by a feather. A smile unconsciously appeared on her lips, like a night-blooming cereus blooming secretly.

Lie Chifeng and Ming Er stared at each other for a long time, then a faint but genuine smile appeared on his perfectly sculpted, cold face: "You actually..." He sighed softly, not continuing, but reached out and took the precious sword from his back, "Very well, I will give you this Blazing Sun Sword, on the condition that your child, whether male or female, must become my disciple, and I will come to pick him up when he turns twelve." With that, he tossed it lightly, and the unique sword landed in Ming Er's hands.

His reaction was completely unexpected, and the three of them couldn't help but raise their eyebrows and look at him.

"I've been traveling for days. Go and prepare food and hot water for my bath," Lie Chifeng instructed the servant who had been standing there dumbfounded.

Upon hearing this, Yun Wuyai continued sipping his tea, casually glancing at the unfinished chess game on the table to see if there was any way to salvage it. Lan Qi happily strolled over to Ming Er's side, wanting to see the precious sword, but Ming Er said it was too heavy and didn't want her to take it, then took her hand and led her for a walk in the pear blossom grove. Meanwhile, the maidservant led Master Lie into the bamboo house.

A gentle breeze swept by, and a soft rain of petals fell.

The Pear Mound is like a painting, and the figures there are extraordinary.

In December, Lan Qi gave birth to a baby boy.

The child was sent to the Wind and Mist Sect after he turned one year old.

It was from that time that the disciples of the Wind and Mist Sect discovered that their young sect leader, the always aloof Senior Brother Feng Yi, was actually such a gentle and loving person, treating the child like a precious jewel, and naming the child Hua Yin.

When the child turned eight, Ning Lang went to the Fengwu Sect, by which time he had become the leader of the martial arts world.

At his uncle's suggestion, the child became Ning Lang's godfather and took his surname Ning. He then returned to Qianbi Mountain with Ning Lang and lived there for another four years.

When Ning Huayin was twelve years old, Lie Chifeng went to Qianbi Mountain to take him as his disciple, as agreed with Lan Qi and Ming Er. From then on, Ning Huayin followed Lie Chifeng to travel all over the world and practice martial arts. When he was eighteen, Lie Chifeng left him.

Ning Huayin entered the martial arts world at the age of eighteen, and the first thing he did was to find his parents. His elders, such as Feng Yi and Ning Lang, never hid the truth from him, so he knew from a young age that his biological parents were the famous "Immortal" Ming Huayan and "Azure Demon" Lan Canyin.

Ming Er and Lan Qi did not disappear into the shadows. They wandered the north and south of the country without a trace, sometimes together and sometimes apart, laughing and roaming the martial world. Their astonishing, absurd, and shocking deeds were often told in the martial world. They never agreed to marry, but everyone in the martial world knew in their hearts that Bi Yao and Zhe Xian were partners.

No matter how much Ning Huayin longed to see his parents, no matter how intelligent or skilled he was in martial arts... he always fell short. Most recently, he had heard a mesmerizing laugh and a gentle, elegant sigh.

People in the martial arts world gradually learned about his background, but no one dared to criticize him. When he traveled the martial arts world, the Ming and Lan families also took good care of him, but they never acknowledged him as their own.

When Ning Huayin was twenty-four, he met a young woman surnamed Feng who carried a sword and traveled around seeking martial arts masters. She claimed she was acting on her father's orders to find a son-in-law with exceptional character, looks, and martial arts skills. He fought the young woman for seven days and seven nights, ending in a draw, but they exchanged tokens of their love. He gave the young woman a brocade pouch that his adoptive father had given him when he was nineteen, containing seven gold leaves, each with the seal script character "Yin" engraved at its tip. The young woman gave him a vibrant black and white twin flower hidden in a jade box, which she told him was called "Lan Yin Bi Yue" (Orchid's Cause and Jade Moon).

That year, the Wind and Mist Sect celebrated its first joyous occasion since its founding.

On that day, heroes from all walks of life gathered on the misty mountain to celebrate the joyous occasion of the nephew of the Wind and Mist Sect leader, the adopted son of the martial arts master, a disciple of the Shallow Green Sect, and the successor of the Blazing Sun Divine Blade Master Lie Sanye.

After the newlyweds finished performing the three rites, someone suddenly delivered a congratulatory gift.

It was a jade vase about a foot tall, with a twin lotus flower inserted inside. The tips of the snow-white lotus petals were tinged with a light green, and the stamens were as red as cinnabar.

At that moment, Ning Huayin suddenly realized who had sent the gift. He looked around and saw two figures, one in purple and one in green, standing on the opposite mountain peak, their robes fluttering and surrounded by a light mist, like immortals. In that instant, he knew who they were. He and his bride bowed to them from afar, and as he raised his head, he called out, "Father, Mother!"

Two faint sounds drifted from the opposite mountain peak, seemingly an agreement and a sigh.

Ning Huayin's personality and character are unlike those of his father and mother. He is intelligent and kind. Although he has an extraordinary background and superb martial arts skills, he is indifferent to worldly affairs and humble. Although he is not as powerful as his parents in the martial arts world, he has friends all over the world and is respected by people. He has family by his side and a loving husband and wife. He lives a very happy and fulfilling life.

If one had to pick out one regret from his life, it would perhaps be that he never met his birth parents, and that he only ever heard their names and voices throughout his life.
