Chapter 1345 The Mermaid: Her Beauty Shine Like the Tide (81)

Li Guang buried her face in his warm chest, listening to his strong heartbeat. The longing and worry that had accumulated for more than ten years turned into silent sobs.

"You're back."

Lu Jinghong tightened his arms, rested his chin on the top of her head, and stroked her back with his hot palms, again and again, as if to confirm that she was real.

"I'm back, my lady, Ah Li, I'll never leave you again."

For more than a decade, he endured the chaotic void and endless wandering in darkness, facing life and death countless times. What kept him alive was always the person in his arms.

Seeing her daughter secretly laughing to herself, Li Guang gently broke free from Lu Jinghong's embrace.

"Let me introduce you. This is Li Yan, and this is Li Yao. They are our children."

Lu Jinghong paused, slowly released Li Guang, and looked at the boy and girl in front of him.

The boy was dressed in a dark brocade robe. His eyes and brows were both clear and bright, as well as heroic. In particular, his calm demeanor was unlike that of an ordinary child.

Just now in the void, he couldn't believe it, but now that he has seen Li Guang, he truly believes what Li Yan said: that he is Li Yan's father.

On the other side, a young girl wore a white and gold dress and had an elaborate hairstyle; she was clearly a girl who loved beauty. Her face wore an innocent and carefree smile, which softened Lu Jinghong's heart. His daughter looked just like his wife.

Lu Jinghong's pupils suddenly contracted, his gaze shifting back and forth between the brother and sister, his fingertips trembling slightly, his voice becoming hoarse: "Ali, they..."

Looking at his shocked and helpless expression, Li Guang smiled gently and nodded softly: "They are our children. Li Yan is the older brother, and Li Yao is the younger sister. They are both seventeen years old this year."

They were seventeen years old, and eighteen years had passed since they parted.

Lu Jinghong's heart sank. When he left, A Li was just pregnant, and now the children are all grown up. In other words, for the past eighteen years, she has been pregnant, given birth, and raised the children all by herself, facing all the hardships alone, and worrying about his life and death.

He couldn't imagine how she had gotten through it.

"I'm sorry, madam, it's my fault. I shouldn't have left in the first place."

Li Guang touched his face and comforted him, "You didn't do it on purpose, go see the children."

"My beloved Daoist partner gave me two children! Hahahaha, this life has truly been worthwhile!"

Lu Jinghong hugged his children tightly and grinned foolishly. Li Yan looked disgusted, but did not break free.

Li Yao, however, was somewhat conflicted.

"Dad, why don't you wash up before you hug me? Mom just bought me new clothes, they smell so good."

"Am I that dirty? If you find me disgusting, then your mother must find me disgusting too."

He suddenly turned around and looked at Li Guang.

Li Guang sighed, "I'm not disgusted by you. Your daughter is very clean, and you've been drifting in the void for so long, it must be tiring. Alright, let's do a deep clean."

Before she could finish speaking, Li Yao threw several cleaning talismans at herself and her adoptive father.

Li Guang brought out a new set of clothes and asked Lu Jinghong to change into them.

The precious moment of tenderness was ruined by her daughter's obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness. Lu Jinghong smiled helplessly, quickly took the clothes, and prepared to tidy herself up properly.

He touched his skin, which seemed a bit rough. No wonder the lady hadn't been rubbing his face like she used to!

He needs to take good care of himself! Fortunately, he is now at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, and there are fewer impurities in his body than before. After taking a few more pills, his appearance will be restored!

In the small courtyard of Yunhua City, several orchids were planted in the bamboo fence, and they were in full bloom at the moment.

Lu Jinghong rummaged through his storage ring and found some rare spiritual materials, including body-tempering pills suitable for his children's cultivation, mind-concentrating flower tea that Li Guang liked, and trinkets collected from various places, which filled half of the courtyard.

"This is for Yan Yan. It's a jade slip containing a spatial cultivation technique that I comprehended myself in the void turbulence."

"This is for Yao Yao, a warm jade hairpin that can nourish the soul."

"Ah Li, this is a Mind-Calming Grass. You tend to exhaust your mind when you cultivate. Using this to make tea can relieve your fatigue."

Like a child presenting a treasure, he handed each item to his wife and children, his eyes full of doting affection. Li Yan held the jade slip, gazing at it intently. Li Yao carefully fastened the hairpin to his hair bun, looking at himself in the mirror again and again, his little face full of joy.

It's the first time I've received a gift from my own father; it's a very novel feeling.
