Chapter 45: Chapter 45: The Two Families are Mortal Enemies

Yan Rufeng left the Grand Canyon and arrived at the base, boarded a military jeep that had long been prepared, bid farewell to everyone at the base, and hurried towards Zhongzhou.

In Yan Rufeng’s villa at Central Province Jade Garden, Xiaxia was busy cooking, Murong Xue was busy serving tea and water to Yan Rufeng’s parents, while Li Xiaofei had already moved to the construction site at Wolong Abyss.

Although Mr. and Mrs. Yan had heard from Li Xiaofei that Yan Rufeng had broken up with Chen Wanqiu, when they saw the more beautiful and sensible Xiaxia and Murong Xue, the two elders were very pleased.

Xiaxia finished cooking and looked at the time, then began to complain.

"This stinky Rufeng, said he would be here by twelve, and now it’s already half-past twelve and he’s still not here, no sense of time at all."

Murong Xue rolled her eyes at Xiaxia and said, "Dare to criticize Rufeng, you’re in trouble."

"How am I in trouble?" Xiaxia asked irritably.

"Haha."

Murong Xue took out her phone and waved it in front of Xiaxia. "I have recorded what you said and sent it to Rufeng."

Xiaxia pointed at Murong Xue angrily and said, "I can’t believe you..."

"Hmph!"

"What about me?"

"Can you two be quiet for a while?"

"Rufeng is here!"

Xiaxia and Murong Xue exclaimed simultaneously in joy.

At that moment, the door opened and Rufeng walked in.

Yan Rufeng saw his parents smiling broadly and instantly smiled like a child, "Dad, Mom, the road was a bit congested, sorry to keep you waiting."

"Feng’er, it’s good you’re here, come sit down and eat." Yan Rufeng’s parents said joyfully.

Yan Rufeng sat down and his mother kept serving him food and pouring drinks, busy as ever.

"Mom, I can do it myself."

Yan Rufeng’s father laughed and said, "Wife, Rufeng is grown up now, not a child anymore, why do you still treat him the same as before."

Yan Rufeng’s mother pouted and said, "Old man, you don’t understand. Even if he gets married and has children, Xiao Feng will always be a child in my eyes."

"Married with children? Give it a rest, look at the present, who do you pick?" Yan Rufeng’s father deliberately hinted.

Yan Rufeng’s mother understood of course and sighed, "I like both girls. Look, Xiaxia is beautiful and generous, and Xiaoxue is gentle and cute. However, I can’t make the decision for my son; this, he has to choose himself."

Hearing this, Xiaxia and Murong Xue were overjoyed, eating their meals as if they were eating sweets, and drinking soup as if they were drinking honey, their hearts filled with happiness.

"Dad, Mom, can we eat peacefully? What’s the point of discussing this now?" Yan Rufeng said, focusing on his meal.

At long last, Yan Rufeng managed to finish the meal with his parents.

Xiaxia cleaned up the table when her company called about some urgent matters, so she had to leave for the office.

Murong Xue prepared the fruit platter and tea, and when Zhou Tong called her from the construction site at Wolong Abyss, she also left in a hurry.

Only Yan Rufeng and his parents were left in the house. His father lit a cigarette and started smoking, while his mother was peeling an apple.

"Sigh..."

"Dad, why are you sighing?" Yan Rufeng asked.

"Just now, the child is capable, you should be happy, not sighing all the time as if we owe someone millions." Yan Rufeng’s mother reproached.

Yan Rufeng’s father glanced at his mother, who was giving him a look.

Of course, Yan Rufeng noticed it. He lit a cigarette and asked, "Dad, Mom, is there something you’re hiding from me?"

"No, nothing, what could we possibly hide from you? It’s just your dad’s old habit for over twenty years, don’t overthink it."

"Dad, Mom, you should tell me. Keeping things to yourself can make you sick."

Yan Rufeng’s father took a deep puff of his cigarette and said, "Xiao Ru, you’ve been with me for over twenty years, and now that Rufeng is grown up, we should tell him."

Yan Rufeng’s mother immediately got angry and said, "Yan Feng, if you dare tell Feng’er, I won’t forgive you."

When his mother got furious, Yan Feng stayed silent, threw away his cigarette, and went back to the room.

Yan Rufeng knew this matter was not simple, otherwise, his mother wouldn’t lose her temper so much.

Being a Cultivator proficient in the Mind Reading Skill, he knew his parents, who were ordinary people, couldn’t hide anything from him.

"Mom, you’ve never told me anything about Grandpa’s side of the family, and Dad has never told me about Grandpa’s side either. What’s the reason for this?"

When Yan Rufeng asked this, his mother started crying. At this moment, his father Yan Feng came out.

"Child, our Yan Family and your mother’s Mu Family are arch-enemies."

"Yan Feng, why did you tell Feng’er? Letting a child bear things he shouldn’t have to," his mother Mu Ru cried.

Hearing this, Yan Rufeng instantly understood, "Mom, don’t cry. You have to trust your child; with me here, the Yan Family and Mu Family will definitely reconcile. Soon, people from both families will be proud of you!"

"Well said, Dad didn’t raise you for nothing," Yan Feng said excitedly.

Yan Rufeng listened as his father recounted how he and his mother met, how they defied their families and eloped, and how they had him. His mother, Yan Ru, eventually stopped crying, realizing that the twenty-year secret had finally been revealed to Yan Rufeng.

"Dad, Mom, tomorrow I’ll take your tokens to the Capital City. I believe it won’t be long before you can proudly return to your families."

Yan Feng solemnly said, "Son, I know about your recent accomplishments. Defeating the President of the Martial Arts Association in one battle, you have to understand that our Yan Family and Mu Family are not just wealthy families in the capital, but also among the top ten hidden martial cultivation families in Huaxia."

"Hehe!"

Yan Rufeng thought happily, "I didn’t know the Yan Family and Mu Family were among the top ten hidden martial cultivation families. If I hadn’t been reincarnated, I wouldn’t have known my parents had such notable backgrounds!"

"Dad, Mom, can you tell me your Martial Artist ranks?"

This sudden question took Yan Feng and Mu Ru by surprise.

"You brat, do you mean you want to spar? I don’t know when you secretly learned martial arts, but I can tell you clearly, I can’t beat you now," Yan Feng joked.

Mu Ru pointed at Yan Feng and said, "Can you be serious for once?"

Yan Rufeng took a deep breath and thought, "If Brother Leopard had come to my house in my past life, he would have been beaten up by my parents. They hid their abilities so well that it made me feel guilty for so long."

Yan Feng handed Yan Rufeng a cigarette, rubbing his hands together, he said, "Rufeng, I always suspected you learned martial arts secretly from your mother, but watching you fight the Martial Arts Association live, I realized their Mu Family’s cultivation techniques are nothing compared to yours. Can you tell me how you learned martial arts?"

Mu Ru, hearing this, pointed at Yan Feng and said sternly, "Yan Feng, I always suspected you secretly taught our son, and thought the Yan Family’s martial arts were superior to the Mu Family’s. But you speak so demeaningly about the Mu Family, you’re sleeping on the street tonight."

"How can you be like this?"

"What do you mean how?"

"Mom, Dad asked how I learned martial arts, this means I’m not using the Yan Family’s techniques either," Yan Rufeng said helplessly as he saw his parents arguing.

"Hmph! Did you hear that? My son isn’t using your Yan Family’s techniques either,"

Mu Ru rolled her eyes at Yan Feng, "The Yan Family doesn’t have such profound techniques."

Yan Feng was speechless, "Yes, yes, the Yan Family is inferior to the Mu Family."

"That’s better."

Mu Ru smiled at Yan Rufeng, "Son, tell Mom who taught you your martial arts."

"Dad, Mom, it’s a long story. Let’s say, your son has a remarkable master, he’s very powerful," Yan Rufeng lied deliberately, not daring to tell the truth, fearing it would scare his parents. Some things needed to be accepted gradually.

Yan Rufeng chatted with his parents for a while before bidding them farewell, heading to Wolong Abyss.
