Senior Brother Wei suddenly understood. It wasn’t that Asun had been bullied, it was just that her home was gone. In an instant, his expression became gloomy as he patted Asun's head, “From now on, wherever I, Wei is, will be your home!”
Asun immediately buried her head in his chest and burst into tears.
Seeing this scene, Yang Kai couldn’t help feeling a bit emotional. The current situation of the Star Boundary wasn’t too optimistic. With Mo Sheng’s actions, the entire Star Boundary had been thrown into chaos, and only the World Tree could repair it. What if he couldn’t find the World Tree? Would the Star Boundary be completely destroyed in the future, just like Asun's homeland?
At that time, how many people would be displaced? This made him even more determined to find the World Tree and return to repair his Star Boundary.
After crying for a while, Asun finally calmed down and walked out of Senior Brother Wei’s embrace with a red face, feeling somewhat embarrassed. She had lost control of her emotions just now, mainly because she had experienced many dangers along the way and had finally met the last person from the same world as her, so she was unable to control her emotions. Now that she had calmed down, she felt even more embarrassed…
Senior Brother Wei laughed and reached out to pat Asun's little head, “You still know how to be shy. Good, it seems you’re doing well.” Looking up at Yang Kai, he nodded, “You did well!”
When he had flashed over just now, Yang Kai had immediately stood in front of the others, blocking the path. To be able to act like this while not knowing the strength of the incoming person meant that this young man in front of him was a very responsible person, causing Senior Brother Wei to have a good impression of Yang Kai.
“Senior is too kind,” Yang Kai said politely.
“Little Sun’er, aren’t you going to introduce me to your friends?” Senior Brother Wei lowered his head and looked at Asun.
Asun wiped her eyes and calmed her emotions before introducing them one by one. Through her introduction, Yang Kai and the others learned that the burly man’s name was Wei Que, so everyone naturally bowed again.
Wei Que waved his hand, “There’s no need to be polite, since you’re Little Sun’er’s friend, you’re not an outsider. Come with me to a safe place first.”
“Senior can decide.” Yang Kai and the others naturally didn’t have any objections. This time, they had come here with the intention of getting protection under Great Moon Province.
Wei Que immediately led the group towards the location of the Great Moon Province's headquarters and asked as he flew, “Little Sun’er, how did you find this place? Didn’t I tell you to bring that token to Great Moon Province to find me?” He was extremely curious about this point. If he hadn’t felt the aura of his token just now, he wouldn’t have believed that Asun would actually find this place. After all, this place was too far from Great Moon Province.
“It’s a long story…” Asun stuck out her tongue awkwardly.
Wei Que smiled, “Then we’ll talk about it slowly, there’s nothing else to do anyway.”
Asun immediately explained what had happened after she had jumped out of that Universe World, and when he heard that Asun had actually been taken over by Seven Skillful Land to become a servant for half a year, Wei Que’s face became as black as the bottom of a pot. When he learned that Seven Skillful Land had met with a great disaster, even more than one Protector Venerable had died, while Seven Skillful Heavenly Monarch had been seriously injured, his expression changed again, “No wonder I didn’t see anyone from Seven Skillful Land this time, it turns out something happened…”
If it weren’t for the great changes that had happened to Seven Skillful Land some time ago, the deaths of the masters inside, the injuries, with the extinguishing of the Sun’s Fire, how could the Seven Skillful Land not participate? Although Seven Skillful Land was not close to here, it was not too far.
“What happened next?” Wei Que asked.
Asun glanced at Yang Kai but didn’t mention anything about the Great General’s search for his family. She only said that after they escaped from the Seven Skillful Land, she had summoned the white jade fox and had it lead them to Great Moon Province. However, after passing through two Domain Gates, the fox had lost its use.
Wei Que’s expression became somewhat awkward, “En, this situation is like this. I didn’t expect you to bring so many friends with you, hahaha… so when I was refining that fox… this Wei miscalculated and made you suffer.”
Asun shook her head, “Senior, please don’t say that. If it weren’t for that fox, we wouldn’t have been able to find this place. Although there were some twists and turns along the way, Asun still managed to find Senior. Asun is already satisfied.”
“That’s right, no matter what, you and I still met at this Outer Universe. In the future, you can remain in Great Moon Province. As long as this Wei doesn’t die, I will ensure your safety.”
“Thank you, Senior…” Asun pursed her lips and nodded before turning to Yang Kai and the others.
Wei Que said, “These friends of yours, if you want to, you can stay in the Great Moon Province. This Wei has some status in the Great Moon Province, so taking in a few people is not a problem.”
Old Fang and Die You were both overjoyed when they heard this, and Yang Kai quickly said, “Then we’ll thank Senior first.”
As they spoke, they arrived in front of a large ship. Wei Que led the group directly onto the deck, which was already filled with people. The woman in a palace dress in the lead looked over with a smile.
Yang Kai and the others looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
They had seen this ship from a distance before, but they hadn’t found any trace of Wei Que. At that time, he probably hadn’t shown himself in the ship’s hold, causing everyone to miss him. Fortunately, Wei Que had taken the initiative to come and meet them later, otherwise they would have had to ask about it one by one.
“Senior Brother Wei, have you found it?” The woman in palace robes glanced at Yang Kai and the others, unable to determine who was Wei Que’s descendant.
Wei Que stretched out his hand and pulled Asun towards him, laughing loudly, “Come, come, come, greet your Martial Aunt Tao!”
Asun obediently bowed, “Greetings, Martial Aunt Tao!”
The woman surnamed Tao sized up Asun and smiled, “Such a beautiful little girl, what is your name?”
“Asun…” Asun lowered her head in embarrassment.
“Your name sounds good too,” The woman surnamed Tao nodded, “It must have been hard on you all this time. Now that you’ve arrived here, if anyone dares to bully you in the future, tell Martial Aunt Tao, she will stand up for you.”
“En… Thank you, Martial Aunt Tao,” Asun’s eyes turned red again. It had been so many years since she had been alone, yet someone had suddenly shown so much concern for her, making her feel like she was in a dream. Everything felt so unreal.
“You little girl…” Wei Que felt a headache coming on, “Why do you always cry?”
The woman surnamed Tao glared at Wei Que, “Haven’t you heard that women are made of water? What’s wrong with crying a few times?” Reaching out, she pulled Asun into her arms and gently patted her shoulder.
Wei Que scratched his head, “Is that so?” Unable to understand what was going on, he placed his hands on his waist and looked around at the other Great Moon Province disciples on the deck, “You little brats, listen up. From today onwards, Little Sun’er will be my personal disciple and also your Little Junior Sister. In the future, no one is allowed to bully her, do you hear me? If anyone dares to bully her, I will skin them alive!”
A young man grinned and said, “Martial Uncle Wei, what are you saying? Little Junior Sister is so cute, how could we bully her?”
Everyone nodded vigorously.
Wei Que coldly snorted, “Good!”
The woman surnamed Tao asked, “Senior Brother, is your cultivation method suitable for Little Sun’er? I can’t imagine how such a delicate beauty will become after a few years of training.”
Wei Que blinked and said firmly, “Is there anything suitable or unsuitable about cultivation methods? As long as you can become stronger, that’s enough.” Turning to the group of disciples, he asked, “What do you think?”
With the young man in the lead, the group said in unison, “Martial Uncle Wei is right!”
The woman surnamed Tao smiled lightly and said, “It’s useless even if you ask them. In the entire Great Moon Province, who dares to oppose you? If Senior Brother doesn’t worry, I think it’s better for me to accept Little Sun’er and cultivate with me in the future. I will definitely teach her well.”
“You want to accept her?” Wei Que stared at his Junior Sister in shock.
The woman surnamed Tao asked, “What’s wrong? Could it be that Senior Brother is reluctant?”
Wei Que laughed, “There’s nothing to be reluctant about, but it all depends on Little Sun’er’s own opinion.” Looking at Sun’er, he asked, “Little Sun’er, let me ask you, are you willing to cultivate with me or follow your Martial Aunt Tao?”
Asun looked up at Wei Que and then at the woman surnamed Tao before lowering her head and saying, “Senior can decide, I have no objections.”
The woman surnamed Tao immediately said, “Then it’s settled. I’ll accept Little Sun’er as my disciple.”
Wei Que immediately said, “What are you waiting for? Quickly greet your master!” Saying so, he pushed Asun.
Asun saw the opportunity and quickly bowed, “Disciple Asun greets Honored Master!”
The woman surnamed Tao accepted her greeting before helping her up with a smile, “This place is quite simple, we’ll talk about the ceremony when we return to Great Moon Province. Master will first give you a gift.” Saying so, she reached out and took out a jade hairpin from her hair and stuffed it into Asun’s hand, “This is a defensive artifact. Refine it well, it can save your life at critical moments!”
Wei Que’s expression changed slightly, “Why did you give this thing away? It’s too precious. No, no, you can take it back and give something else later.”
The woman surnamed Tao smiled lightly, “What does it have to do with you if I send a gift to my own disciple?”
Wei Que was speechless…
The group of Great Moon Province disciples watching from the side were extremely envious. This Little Junior Sister had been snatched by two Martial Uncle and Aunt as soon as she arrived, and now that she had become a disciple of Martial Aunt Tao, she had even obtained such a precious artifact as a gift to become her disciple. Which disciple present would have such treatment?
However, they couldn’t help feeling envious. The other party had some kind of relationship with Martial Uncle Wei, and Martial Aunt Tao had fallen in love with Martial Uncle Wei for many years. However, Martial Uncle Wei was a fool and didn’t realize it at all. Martial Aunt Tao’s actions were obviously a display of her love for his family.
It wasn’t just the disciples of Great Moon Province who were envious, how could Old Fang and Die You not?
All of them had escaped from the Seven Skillful Land and had been walking side by side all this time. Now that they had arrived here, Asun suddenly became a hot potato.
However, although they were envious, they were also happy. Although they had only known each other for a few months, Asun's pure and innocent personality was indeed very likable.
After accepting these disciples, the woman surnamed Tao was also in a good mood as she looked towards Yang Kai and the others, “These people are…”
Asun quickly replied, “Reporting to Honored Master, they are Disciple’s friends. It is thanks to them escorting Disciple that Disciple was able to arrive here.”
