Baby with Daoist Monarch System

Chapter 670: Chapter 273: Mysterious Peach Blossoms in the Enigmatic Stream

The dark clouds in the sky completely dispersed, and the sunlight, as usual, passed through the sparse clouds, piercing like a sharp sword into the quiet courtyard of the Xu Family, nourishing the Seven-leafed One-flowered Plant in the corner, where the dewdrops residing on the leaves gradually shrunk.

For the Great Wilderness Border Village, which had experienced an entire morning, those rays of sunlight were undoubtedly a hope of rebirth, endowed with life, casting various shapes on the ground—circular, square, and various irregular figures.

These shapes glistened, but they were of a blood-red color.

As the sun rose, several kinds of bird calls sounded in the sky, but in the courtyard, there was an unparalleled silence.

The scene where Xu Ran wielded his sword to behead echoed repeatedly in everyone’s heart, the charm unmistakably belonging to an immortal.

”Why are there so many headless corpses in the village? What happened during the few days I was absent?”

At this moment, a powerful voice slowly rang in everyone’s ears, not loud, but that familiar voice caused the initially stunned villagers to come to their senses simultaneously, turning their gaze towards the source of the sound.

Not far from the Xu Family courtyard, there appeared a robust young man, wearing a coat made of tiger hide, with a sharp bone knife at his waist, though the knife was somewhat damaged.

The tiger-hide coat on his body was stained with blood, and his face was full of dust, looking travel-worn.

Following his shoulder, one could see him carrying a huge piece of white jade bone, nearly five meters long, as thick as the arm of a robust young man, and looking like it weighed several hundred pounds.

Such a giant item was easily carried on the shoulder by the robust young man.

”Sick Tiger!!”

Old Qi recognized the elderly man’s appearance and suddenly exclaimed.

No mistake, the one who returned was Xu Binghu.

This voice suddenly echoed in Xu Binghu’s ear, making it a bit unbearable for him.

”Old Qi, what are you doing? Why so excited?”

Just as he finished speaking, Lian Ji, who had just entered the room, heard the sound coming from outside. Instantly, her head turned, her eyes reddened immediately, and drops of tears slowly fell from the corners of her eyes.

”Sick Tiger!”

Immediately, she pushed open the door and rushed out.

At that moment, Xu Binghu and Lian Ji looked at each other, and at this point, Lian Ji’s tears flowed incessantly, covering her mouth with disbelief, her hair cascading down, looking extremely agitated.

”My wife, I’ve returned!!” Xu Binghu spread his arms, speaking to Lian Ji at the door.

At this, Lian Ji completely lost composure, rushing toward Xu Binghu, throwing herself into his embrace, disregarding the dried bloodstains on him, and cried out loud.

Xu Binghu, hit by her impact, loosened his shoulder, causing that huge piece of white jade bone to fall.

”Bang---”

A loud sound erupted, and the rainwater that hadn’t yet dried on the ground splashed several meters high, indicating its weight.

Similarly, Xu Ran and Little White, who heard the sound from outside, also walked out of the room. Seeing Lian Ji crying incessantly in Xu Binghu’s embrace, both nodded slowly, their lips curling upwards.

And Little White, upon seeing Xu Binghu’s return, was equally excited, spreading its wings, flying freely at low altitude without restraint, causing the winds to swirl, and in an instant, the undried blood and rainwater in the courtyard were blown outside.

It was unsure whether Little White was happy because Xu Binghu was back and it could eat meat daily again, or because its worried heart had finally relaxed.

Though the ground was swept by fierce winds, the spot where Xu Binghu and Lian Ji stood remained unaffected.

After a while, Little White stopped, returning to Xu Ran’s side, when sunlight filtered over the eaves, casting a radiant glow on Xu Ran’s face, shining brightly.

Lian Ji sobbed for quite some time, slowly raising her head, her eyes red, yet her fists slightly clenched, placed on Xu Binghu’s chest, speaking with some resentment.

”Husband, where exactly have you been these five days? Do you know we were really worried about you?”

Lian Ji spoke while hitting Xu Binghu’s chest with her small hands, but each punch felt like it was against air, causing the tiger-hide coat to not even slightly sway.

Xu Binghu did not stop Lian Ji’s actions, allowing her to vent freely.

”Exactly! Binghu, during these few days when you were not here, people from other villages who have succeeded in body refining thought of occupying your house. If it weren’t for little Ran, it’s afraid...”

At this moment, Old Qi spoke.

Upon hearing this, Xu Binghu’s aura suddenly erupted, waves of qi radiating outwards from him, causing his tiger-hide coat to flap loudly in the wind, forcing the guards, who had recently regained their senses, to block with their hands in front of their chests to prevent being blown away by the qi waves.

”Bing... Binghu, you... you should calm down first!!”

Old Qi put effort into resisting the qi waves radiated by Xu Binghu, shouting with all his strength.

Among this group, besides Xu Binghu, Xu Ran, and Little White, he was the strongest, but also the most injured. Once at the village gate and now individually suppressed by King Mountain’s Gravity Suppression in the Xu Family courtyard, managing to stay standing amid Xu Binghu’s qi waves was already quite commendable.

As Old Qi’s voice echoed, Xu Binghu’s qi waves gradually subsided until they vanished, allowing everyone else to slowly breathe a sigh of relief.

”This aura is not weaker than that of King Mountain with divine techniques, and this qi wave, could it also be Xu Binghu’s divine technique? What happened during the five days when Xu Binghu disappeared?”
