1256 Tian Yanyu’s Feelings

"Xiao Yuan! Where have you been this whole time?! Do you have any idea how worried I was when you didn’t return as planned?!"

After spending a good moment silently hugging him, Tian Yanyu suddenly exclaimed.

"I know, your mother gave me a handful at the entrance. And I’m sorry for being late. I was stuck inside the Nameless Emperor’s Tomb and couldn’t return until now." Yuan apologized again.

"Really?! Are you okay? It must have been terrifying!"

"I’m fine," he reassured her.

"What about you? I hope nothing happened after we separated," he then asked.

"Nothing happened. In fact, it was actually really boring after we reunited with the sect." Tian Yanyu shook her head, and she added, "I should’ve followed you."

"That would’ve been a really bad idea. I almost died a few times," he chuckled, ignoring the fact that he’d actually ’died’ once.

The two of them would talk for several minutes while Tian Yanyu had her arms around him the entire, almost as though she was afraid he’d disappear the moment she let go.

Eventually, they got off the floor and made their way to the lobby, where Tian Suyin and Tian Xianzu were sitting around a table and drinking tea.

"Welcome back, young man." Tian Xianzu said with a smile, and he gestured at the chair beside him.

"Thank you," Yuan said as he sat down beside Tian Xianzu.

"I heard everything from from my wife. You’re the first person that I know of to leave the Nameless Emperor’s Tomb after it’s sealed. Even calling it a miracle would not do it justice."

"I wasn’t in a dangerous situation it was just time-consuming."

"I’m just glad you’re safe. After all, you’re my family’s savior, and we’ve yet to repay the debt."

"Savior?" Yuan raised his eyebrows in a puzzled manner.

Tian Xianzu nodded and said, "I heard about everything you’ve done for my wife and daughter all the treasures you’ve given them, as well as saving them from danger."

"It wasn’t much. I didn’t need the treasures, and it was only natural for me to protect them," Yuan smiled.

"Still, we are grateful to you."

"Anyways, now that you have returned, what are your future plans?"

"I have one more business in this world before I start making my way to the Fourth Heaven," said Yuan.

"What?! You’re leaving the Third Heaven already?!" Tian Yanyu exclaimed.

He nodded, "I am quite busy, after all."

Furthermore, although he won’t mention this to them, the Third Heaven was currently crowded with people from the Upper Heavens, all of whom had come down there to hunt him. It wouldn’t be wise for him to stay in the Third Heaven for too long.

"Then I will go with you to the Fourth Heaven!" Tian Yanyu exclaimed without even thinking, her devotion to him evident in her words.

"What?! You must be out of your mind if you think I will let you leave!" Tian Suyin shouted, her anger causing her to slam her hand on the table.

"B-But!" Tian Yanyu quickly realized how imprudent her statement had been.

Yuan interrupted, "I appreciate your thoughts, Miss Yanyu, but unfortunately, I have to agree with your mother here. It’s too dangerous, and you already have a stable life here."

"I, on the other hand, have no family or life here, not to mention the mountain of things that I need to do in the Upper Heavens. I have to keep going higher even if I don’t want to."

"I-If you have no family here, then you can start one... with me!" Tian Yanyu hesitated for a moment but eventually pushed herself to say such words, her face flushed red by the end.

"..."

The entire room filled with silence as Yuan and the others stared at Tian Yanyu with surprised faces.

"Y-You... What nonsense are you spewing?" Tian Suyin was astonished that her daughter even had the courage to say such things.

However, this also showed how much Tian Yanyu cared for Yuan.

Despite how nervous and embarrassed she felt, and how much she wanted to run away, Tian Yanyu forced herself to remain in the room, her gaze fixed on Yuan as she waited for his response.

After a moment of awkward silence, Yuan responded to her feelings with a single word, "Sorry..."

Tian Yanyu quickly realized that she had been rejected, and tears immediately began forming in her eyes. However, before any tears could fall, she turned around and ran out of the room.

After another moment of silence, Tian Suyin mumbled, "I finally believe you when you said that you didn’t come here to court my daughter..."

"..."

Yuan didn’t know how to respond to her words.

"But... thank you for rejecting her." Tian Suyin unexpectedly thanked him out of the blue.

And she continued, "Everything that’s happened lately has been quite a whirlwind, and her emotions have been all over the place. Now, she’ll finally have some time to reflect on what she truly desires. If, after she finds some clarity, she still wishes to follow you, I won’t stand in her way."

"However, when that happens, I still hope that you’d decline her company. I don’t mean this in a bad way, but you’re too much for her, Yuan. We’re just a small family in the Third Heaven with some history, but you’re different. And I don’t think she has what it takes to follow someone as magnificent and talented as you."

Yuan was speechless. He didn’t expect Tian Suyin to have such profound thoughts about him.

Tian Xianzu didn’t say anything, but his thoughts aligned with Tian Suyin’s feelings. Yuan was simply too outstanding for their daughter. With his talents, he would definitely achieve greatness in the future, and Tian Yanyu would hurt herself just by being around him.

What happened with the Nameless Emperor’s Tomb proved to Tian Suyin that her daughter was simply incapable of catching up with Yuan, much less following him.

Even though Yuan wasn’t the kind of person to care about such things, he couldn’t ignore Tian Yanyu’s parents’ feelings, and he also didn’t want to endanger Tian Yanyu by bringing her with him on his journey that is still shrouded in mysteries.

"I understand."

In the end, Yuan acknowledged Tian Suyin’s request.

"Thank you," Tian Suyin expressed her gratitude once more, her sincerity couldn’t be any more apparent.
