Chapter 1039 - 1025: He Is Back

The sunlight shone on Di Fu Yuan, enveloping him in a radiant halo, as if he had suddenly broken free from the fog and stood atop the clouds.

His posture was upright, with long, ink-black hair flowing like satin, walking towards her step by step against the light. His black robes moved without wind, carrying an invisible aura, capable of captivating all beings, along with supreme majesty.

Yet, the moment those peach blossom eyes fell on her, they held a gaze filled with heartache.

At the instant she saw Di Fu Yuan, Su Muyao’s footsteps halted abruptly, her breathing seemingly paused.

She stared blankly at that figure, her pupils contracting intensely, eyes instantly filling with incredulous brilliance.

Even though the wind roared around her, she could see no one else at this moment; everything around her became blurred shadows. Only that familiar silhouette was etched clearly into her very being.

"Brother, brother..."

He’s back.

She found him.

No one knew, in the Divine Domain Fragment, when she saw him sacrificing himself to resist the Demon Realm and to block the Gate, her heart ached for a long time.

There was a place in her heart that felt empty, fearing to think about those scenes.

Every time she did, her heart ached to the point of breathlessness.

Aching for him, heartache.

At that time, she thought, she must find Di Fu Yuan’s body quickly, she had to save him.

Believing only seeing him well would return her to normalcy.

Many times in her dreams, she would involuntarily dream of his figure.

Dreaming that he turned into foam, she would wake up startled, disoriented, panicked.

A myriad of emotions broke through the shackles of her heart at this moment, surging like an overturned sea, crashing against her heart, engulfing her whole Divine Soul.

Su Muyao kept looking at Di Fu Yuan, at his true, tangible form, with her eyes tinged red.

A mist of tears spread, burning hot tears locked firmly in her eye sockets.

"Brother..."

She gently murmured the term, afraid to exert force, fearing it was an illusion.

The water glistened increasingly in her eyes, softening and rendering those once cold pupils tender and fragile.

Her flushed lashes trembled slightly.

Di Fu Yuan approached her and reached out, wanting to hold her tight, but since his figure was transparent he couldn’t hold anything.

Di Fu Yuan sighed lightly, wanting to touch the little girl’s hair but couldn’t, so he could only soften his voice to comfort her, "Little girl, don’t cry, I’m back."

This sentence, especially the part about him coming back, completely moved Su Muyao, causing her tears to fall uncontrollably.

Drop by drop, her vision blurred.

She choked and said, "Brother, it’s really you."

Di Fu Yuan softened his voice, filled with tenderness and affection, "Yes, it’s me, really."

"Stop crying, brother can’t bear to see you cry."

He couldn’t touch her now, nor could he wipe her tears, feeling very anxious.

Her tears seemed to drip onto his heart, scorching it with pain.

Truly, he couldn’t bear to see the little girl shed even a single tear.

Su Muyao also wanted to hug Di Fu Yuan but couldn’t, his body was still transparent.

She wiped her tears chaotically, choking, "I don’t want to cry either, can’t control it."

"Brother, have you returned from ages past?"

That battle, it was the source of her greatest heartache.

Di Fu Yuan looked deeply at Su Muyao, his voice carrying boundless gentleness and indulgence.

He spoke softly, "Yes, little girl, I’m back."

He gently said with patience, "Girl, I said, I have an Undying Body, I would come back."

"During that time, I even saw you, then I thought, I must come back, can’t let my little girl be sad."

This was the decree descended by Heavenly Dao, appointing her as his wife.

He waited for so long, before the first demise ages past, he didn’t get to see her.

But he eventually saw her once through the endless time of ages.

Knew she and he were separated by endless ages.

Later, reincarnating as the Black Dragon King of Floating Light Cyan Creek Sea, with his fragmented soul not complete, he didn’t retain memories of ages past.

But at that time, his little girl also had issues, after death reincarnating into the Immortal Realm as an Immortal Phoenix Divine Beast Egg, then when the Immortal Realm collapsed she had a problem, he personally incubated the egg.

At that point, as the Dragon King of Floating Light Cyan Creek Sea, he had another marriage pact with the little girl.

Thus, he personally cared for and protected her as she grew.

Who could have thought Floating Light Cyan Creek Sea would have issues again, the Destruction Tribulation would reappear, and the Dragon Clan would vanish.

She didn’t know how many times her little girl had reincarnated.

Just thinking about this, Di Fu Yuan’s heart ached terribly, his eyes were tinged red, he desperately wanted to hold her in his embrace and protect her properly.

Ages past, during the time of Hongmeng Sea, when he initially was the Black Dragon King, that was the beginning of heaven and earth.

At that time, the Heavenly Dao Consciousness wasn’t complete, it required the Heavenly Destiny Book to maintain some order.

His little girl hadn’t appeared yet.

Later, experiencing too much.

She bore too many responsibilities.

Su Muyao swiftly suppressed her emotions, seeing brother was the happiest matter regardless.

Furthermore, this fragmentary soul was different from previous fragments, this should be the genuine fragment from ages past belonging to him.

"Brother, I found your Dragon Body, in the Dragon Race Key."

"And the Dragon Scale Whip is also in the Dragon Race Key, which was your weapon."

When she missed her brother, she would occasionally take it out to look at.

But she didn’t dare to look often, afraid she would think again of the time he battled the Demon Beast, her heart sharply aching.

Now her mood seemed to calm down somewhat.

Di Fu Yuan’s peach blossom eyes glowed with rippling, gentle hues, "My wife, you have worked hard, you saved brother."

Nowadays the Heavenly Dao Consciousness was vague, clouded by the strength of the Demon Clan, but the Qi Fortune of Beast World still focused on the little girl.

She was left behind by Heavenly Dao to save the world.

Naturally, she would be granted things others couldn’t possess.

He even sensed a touch of the Heavenly Destiny Book’s aura on her.

So the Heavenly Dao kept the Heavenly Destiny Book on her to guard her?

No matter what, as long as the little girl was fine now, Di Fu Yuan’s anxious heart was slightly eased.

Ages past, after death leaving just a wisp of consciousness in Hongmeng Sea, when he saw her, he truly was very uneasy.

He was afraid she would suffer even a hint of grievance, afraid she wouldn’t protect herself well.

"Because of the Qi Fortune you have, you could find brother’s body, otherwise, even if others searched everywhere, they might not find it."

Su Muyao gripped the Dragon Race Key with her fingers, "It was this that guided me."

Di Fu Yuan gazed at the Dragon Race Key, speaking softly, "Only you can make it glow."

"Others can’t use this."

"Little girl, you were appointed by Heavenly Dao as my wife."

"This can’t be unrecognized, right?"

Meeting once, Di Fu Yuan naturally wanted to promptly establish the relationship.

Su Muyao was amused by Di Fu Yuan, "It’s already recognized."

Back then within the Dragon Race Key, she could touch that wisp of his fragmented soul.

She knew each wisp of fragmented soul retained different memories.

Now Su Muyao couldn’t bear to let Di Fu Yuan feel any sadness.

She also knew, it seemed a long time ago, there was a marriage pact between them.

Di Fu Yuan felt emotional upon hearing this, his fingers fell uncontrollably on her, yearning to touch her and truly feel her warmth.

He had so much to say.

But right now, he needed to first merge with his body.
