A rare opportunity

Chapter 447 Father-Daughter Agreement

It was another disappointing day. As usual, he searched the bottom of the cliff again. Except for some animal skeletons, he still found nothing. When disappointment has become a habit, then disappointment can no longer be called disappointment. At best, it will only cause a sigh!

As he walked home with an empty and numb mood, he finally felt tired and had an urge to follow his wife and children.

When he was walking alone in the forest like a zombie, a faint cry of a baby came with the wind. He thought it was just the sound of wind blowing the leaves, at most just the cry of a hunter's child!

However, the sound that sounded like a baby's cry seemed to have some kind of magic, prompting him to listen carefully! The sound was intermittent, hiding in the rustling of leaves and the unique bird calls and animal roars in the forest! He didn't know why he was so stubborn that he believed it must be the cry of a baby, and he didn't know why he was dragged by the sound.

The scene in front of him was unbelievable! A group of howling wolves under a big tree were trying to jump up and overturn a basket hanging on the tree! Yes, it was a basket! A common basket in farmers' homes, the kind used to hold food! And in that basket came the intermittent, weak cry of a baby!

Under the tree were several hunters' huts. One of the two skeletons was lying in front of the hut's door. Next to him was a rope wrapped around a wooden pillar. The rope passed through a tree branch, hanging the frame high up. The other skeleton was scattered under the frame!

Apparently, the hunter was besieged by wolves. When they were in danger, the couple risked their lives to hang their child in the air!

This was a delicate and beautiful child. It was just that he had been hanging in the air for too long, so he was out of spirit! When Mu Chengqi dealt with the wolves and held him in his arms, his frozen heart was finally melted by the child's dark eyes! He seemed to see his daughter when she was a child! No! This was his daughter!

When he took the child out of the basket, heavy snow began to fall from the sky. Mu Chengqi named the child Mu Xue!

From then on, he settled down in the thatched hut with Mu Xue, who had escaped death.

Mu Xue was already in tears! Obviously, the child hanging in the basket mentioned by Mu Chengqi was herself! No wonder her father never mentioned her mother! Whenever he mentioned her, he was vague. But it turned out that she was an orphan! This was hard for her to accept!

Thinking of Mu Chengqi's love for her over the years, she couldn't help but shout:

"father!"

He hugged Mu Chengqi tightly. Mu Chengqi also hugged Mu Xue tightly, tears streaming down his face!

It is said that the plum blossom fairy Mu Chun ran all the way in anger, and finally fell to the ground and burst into tears! She cried until she was hoarse and heartbroken! Li Yu, who was following closely behind her, also shed tears secretly! He didn't know what his master had experienced, nor did he know what kind of gap there was between them. But in his opinion, his master was still lucky! At least, she still had a father and a sister!

He did not say anything to persuade her, but just walked to her side and sat down silently! Sometimes, people have to vent their emotions. Otherwise, they will accumulate in their hearts, which can make them restless and unable to practice, or even hurt themselves.

After a long time, Mu Chun finally stopped crying and sat cross-legged.

Seeing the miserable face of his master, Li Yu felt so distressed! He immediately whispered:

"Master!..."

"Yu'er! You don't need to say anything, Master knows what to do!"

Mu Chun raised his hand to interrupt Li Yu. Then he stood up and said to Li Yu:

"Let's go! Let's go back!"

Seeing Mu Chun staggering, Li Yu rushed over to support her and said softly:

"Master! Can't we take a rest before we go?"

Na Muchun shook her head, took a deep breath, and walked away! Li Yu hurriedly followed her closely and headed towards Lingshan together!

When Mu Chengqi saw Mu Chun and Li Yu coming back, he hurriedly stood up with the help of Mu Xue, avoiding her gaze and not daring to meet Mu Chun's. Mu Chun, on the other hand, looked cold and straight at Mu Chengqi!

Li Yu felt a little ashamed when he saw the happy expressions of Xu Qiankun, Jiang Wuya and others! Knowing that everyone was worried about him, he also wanted to give Mu Chengqi and his daughter a separate environment. He immediately came in front of everyone and bowed:

"I'm so sorry! I made you all worried!"

Everyone bowed in return, saying they dared not. Although they were full of curiosity about Mu Chengqi and others, and wanted to know what Li Yu had experienced, since the leader himself did not say anything, it was not easy to ask.

Since the leader has returned safely, there is no need to stay any longer. Immediately, everyone bowed and said goodbye, returning to the underground to practice. Yin Zijuan, Hua Yu and others were worried about the master, but they did not dare to go forward. After all, they had heard Mu Chengqi's description. If they were to interfere in the affairs between their father and daughter, it would be a bit embarrassing. After thinking about it, the two finally took the disciples of Plum Valley up the mountain to continue practicing.

Before leaving, Yin Zijuan specifically told the Hongzhou Imperial Guards guarding the foot of the mountain to retreat far away. In an instant, only Mu Chengqi, his daughter and Li Yu were left within a few miles of the foot of Lingshan Mountain.

The reason why Li Yu did not leave was because he was a little worried! The appearance of the Blind Mountain Poisonous Woman made him alert! Of course, he did not intend to eavesdrop on their conversation, but just focused on exploring the surrounding situation.

Under Mu Chun's gaze, Mu Chengqi couldn't help but tremble and said:

"Chun'er! Dad knows he was wrong! As long as you are willing to forgive Dad, you can ask Dad to do anything!"

Mu Xue also shouted timidly:

"Master...sister...sister!"

When Mu Chun heard this, a little warmth appeared on his cold face! He waved to Mu Xue. Mu Xue immediately rushed over and hugged Mu Chun, crying.

Muchun's eyes were red too! He patted Muxue's back lovingly. He comforted her softly:

"Good girl Xue'er! Don't cry!"

In fact, she had known for a long time that Mu Xue was her sister, which was one of the reasons why she was unwilling to forgive her father! She didn't know that Mu Xue was not her biological sister, she just thought that Mu Chengqi had married someone else! But this had nothing to do with Mu Xue!

Mu Xue couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard this! She didn't know whether she was happy or sad!

After a long while, Fang choked up and said:

"Sister, please forgive me, okay? I have been thinking about you all the time these past few years!"

Mu Chun sighed and said:

"Oh! Xue'er! I know. But I just can't get over it! Okay, Xue'er, don't cry! If you want me to forgive him, he must promise me two things!"

Mu Xue couldn't help but burst into laughter when she heard this! She hurriedly shouted to Mu Chengqi:

"Dad! Promise it now! Promise it now!"

Mu Chengqi couldn't help but shook his head and smiled bitterly! I don't know what conditions he will propose, and you want me to agree? Alas! After all, she is my daughter, what conditions can't I agree to? The worst that can happen is death! Now that I know she is still alive, it is worth it even if I die now! I nodded immediately:

"Okay! No matter what conditions you put forward, Dad will agree to it!"

Mu Chun couldn't help but be moved when she heard this! She knew her father's character. He always made plans before acting and would never easily agree to anything from others! Not even his own mother! But she didn't expect him to agree so readily. She looked at Mu Chengqi in confusion and saw that he looked determined. She thought: Could it be that he has changed his gender over the years? She immediately stared at Mu Chengqi and said in a deep voice:

"Okay! First of all, I hope you will stop interfering with Xue'er's affairs like you did with me!"

"Okay! Dad promises you!"

Mu Chengqi glanced at Li Yu who was standing in the distance and said through gritted teeth.

"Secondly, I think you have seen the notice of the Anti-Knife Alliance. I hope you can come forward to summon those hermit masters to come out and help protect Lanyu Star!"
