CapĂtulo 1439: Chapter 1424: Finally Home
âThese people areâŠâ
After a while, Sun Yiyi calmed down and saw a group of people dressed like ancient individuals, immediately sparking her curiosity.
Song Xiaodong laughed and said, âThese people have a rather special background. You two, go and prepare some clothes for us, then get a few vehicles ready. However, donât let a word of our return slip outside.â
The two agreed promptly and departed quickly.
Song Xiaodong then said, âGive me the phone, I need to call home and assure them weâre safe.â
He Lingzhi hurriedly handed her phone to Song Xiaodong, who dialed home.
The call connected quickly, and Su Yuyaâs voice came from the other side, âLingzhi, have you found the Family Head?â
âAunt, itâs me.â Song Xiaodong said excitedly.
âAh⊠Family Head! Ah! The Family Head is back!â Su Yuya first exclaimed, then shouted at the top of her lungs.
Soon after, a mix of womenâs voices and cries were heard through the phone.
Song Xiaodong felt a pang of sadness and began to tear up, saying, âIâve worried you all. This incident was quite unexpected; Iâll explain everything in detail when Iâm home.â
After briefly expressing his longing and soothing everyoneâs emotions, Song Xiaodong ended the call, otherwise it seemed like the call would never end.
âMy experience this time was quite peculiar. This pool connects to an underground world inhabited by people from the Warring States period over two thousand years ago, whose mindset still remains in that era.â
âWhoa, thereâs actually such a place?â He Lingzhi widened her eyes. If it werenât for seeing this group of strange people with her own eyes, she wouldnât have believed Song Xiaodongâs words.
Song Xiaodong laughed, âYeah, there are over two thousand people there. It could become our holiday spot in the future. Iâll need to send them some supplies and head back in sometime.â
âGreat, Iâm going too!â He Lingzhi said, her face full of excitement.
Sun Yiyi squinted and said, âSo how did you all just end up diving into that pool for no reason? Were you going for a romantic bath together or something?â
Indeed, Sun Yiyiâs words hit the nail on the head. Song Xiaodong coughed dryly and said, âWhat romantic bath? I sensed danger in that pool. Who knew a giant python would actually appear! Then my leg got bitten by the python and it kept dragging me down.â
âA python⊠Hmph, just a little reptile.â He Lingzhi said disdainfully.
Sun Yiyi apparently also didnât take the python seriously and said, âWe found your clothes here, including your underwear. You went into the pool completely naked. If not for a romantic bath, then what?â
Hearing Sun Yiyi, He Lingzhi also stared at Song Xiaodong.
Feeling a bit awkward, Song Xiaodong reluctantly confessed, âAlright, Iâll admit it. At that moment, I just wanted to take advantage of her. Sheâs the Princess of the Dark Night Sect, and I felt like taking advantage of her was a blow to the Dark Night Sect. My intentions werenât pure.â
âI can understand that part, but Iâm curious. You got bitten by the python, so how did she end up going down with you?â
âShe wanted to save me. The result? Both of us got dragged down.â
âI see, so it was truly mutual affection.â Sun Yiyi gave Song Xiaodong a side-eye but let it go. Everyone knew about Song Xiaodongâs relationship with Qingluan; capturing Qingluanâs heart seemed beneficial to Dragon Gate with no downsides.
Song Xiaodong brought Sun Yiyi and He Lingzhi to Song Hu and the others, saying, âThese two are my wives.â
âGreetings, madams!â Song Hu, Huarui, and Huaqing immediately greeted.
Song Xiaodong introduced the others, while Sun Yiyi squinted her eyes at Huarui and Huaqing, saying, âThese two are like beautifully carved little ladies. You specifically brought them along, so they must be extraordinary, right?â
Song Xiaodong lightly coughed and said, âThey count as mine too.â
Sun Yiyi chuckled lightly and said, âI knew it. Youâve been having a leisurely time in there, while weâve all been worrying about you out here.â
Huarui and Huaqing were anxious, fearing Sun Yiyi and He Lingzhi. Partly because they were Song Xiaodongâs wives and partly because the outside world was utterly unfamiliar to them, leaving them unsettled.
However, Sun Yiyi immediately went over and held their hands, saying, âAlright, now that youâre in our family, weâre all family from now on. Thereâs no need to be afraid. We wonât bully you two.â
Huarui and Huaqing quickly tried to bow, making Sun Yiyi feel embarrassed.
Song Xiaodong wasnât worried about Huarui and Huaqing, knowing that Sun Yiyi and the others wouldnât bully them, saying, âTheyâre responsible for seeing the world outside, so I need to take them around. After they return, it will assure the people inside.â
Sun Yiyi asked, âAre you taking them back to our Su Family?â
Song Xiaodong shook his head and said, âThat would be too troublesome and itâs a long journey. Iâd rather organize some materials nearby first and send them in to ease their minds.â
Sun Yiyi said, âThis area is quite impoverished; Iâm afraid there arenât many supplies, right?â
Song Xiaodong replied, âEven though itâs a mountainous area, some of the things here are already quite good for them. Also, sending things inside is quite inconvenient. Weâll need to get tools next time to better send in supplies.â
