Chapter 876: Is Happiness That Easy To Find?

Tian Luo Palace.

After Yue Yang returned to the Tong Tian Tower, the first person he wanted to see was no one else but Si-niang.

It’s a good thing to know Pandora from the Desire Valley, but thinking back to the beginning, she almost killed me with the Divine Power of Calamity and the Law of the Desire Valley. Thinking about it, it’s really a bit scary. If I never came back, what would become of Si-niang and Bing Er? How sad would Wu Xia and Qian Qian be? Of course, all those assumptions were untenable… Just having time to recall the initial situation made Yue Yang have a heart throbbing emotion surge in his chest, desperately wanting someone to comfort him.

Who could release the negative state of Yue Yang’s heart most?

Wu Xia, Qian Qian, Luo Hua, Yi Nan, Sky Law, Yue Yu, etc…It could be any of them.

Although Bing Er, Shuang Er, Bao Er, Niu Niu and the others still needed Yue Yang to take care of them, having them jumping around and laughing made his mood slightly better, even if they were unaware of the fact.

However, there was no doubt that the person who could inspire Yue Yang the most and eliminate his negative emotions was Si-niang.

The weakly soft Si-niang, gentle like water, demure and virtuous, born with a kind of maternal brilliance.

Even if she didn’t say anything and just looked at Yue Yang, he could feel her resolute support for him through her gaze.

That kind of confidence, that kind of encouragement; they were indescribable. As long as Yue Yang sees Si-niang, he will automatically know what to do next.

As long as he sees her, Yue Yang will always feel warmth in his heart, like a wandering and helpless child returning home. No matter what kind of blows he receives or what sort of worries he has on the outside, they will disappear in an instant, not even leaving a trace.

Yue Yang returned to the garden.

He happened to see the Drunken Cat Big Sis who was also coming out of the teleportation array, both of them slightly shocked. What a coincidence?

“What a bad time for you to come back. Wu Xia and Qian Qian have already accompanied Bing Er to comprehend some ancient runes, and Yue Yu went to visit her instructor. The others are busy cultivating at the stairway, so no one has the time to accompany you,” The Drunken Cat Big Sis quickly reacted, and before Yue Yang could speak, she said, “Don’t look at me, I’m not free. His Majesty’s birthday is approaching and I have to go back to make arrangements.”

“I’m free,” The little panda Niu Niu ran over for fear that Yue Yang would be disappointed. She wrapped her arms around Yue Yang’s arm and raised her pink face, “I’ll be with you with Shuang Er— we are all free!”

“How obedient of you!” Yue Yang hugged Niu Niu and gave a loud kiss on her smooth and small forehead.

“Go and finish your homework instead of patronising all day to play. Didn’t you just say you were coming back to study with Shuang Er?” The Drunken Cat Big Sis was like a stern mother, and the scared little panda girl spat out her little pink tongue but didn’t dare to pester Yue Yang anymore. She hurriedly ran in, preparing to find Yue Shuang first. After finishing today’s homework, she would find a way to sneak out and play with her brother.

At the turning corner, she stopped and made a secret gesture towards Yue Yang, indicating that he should wait for her.

It wasn’t until she saw him nodding his head that she jumped in happily.

Drunken Cat Big Sis was refuting hilariously when she saw it, “How old are you? Still playing with children?”

Student Yue Yang grinned and retorted, “A person with childlike innocence will not grow old… His Majesty’s birthday? Can I join?”

The Drunken Cat Big Sis snorted very nicely, “It’s not for you! If His Majesty didn’t invite you, you can’t be cheeky and show up uninvited. Otherwise, it will make things messy. If it wasn’t for Si-niang living here, your frequent visits wouldn’t have tarnished the reputation of His Majesty!”

Yue Yang pretended to be confused, “What’s the bad effect?”

Drunken Cat Big Sis almost wanted to strangle him alive with her hands, but finally, she tried to hold back, “Anyway, it’s not a good thing. Who else in the Dragon Continent wouldn’t know that you’re a pretty playboy anyways?”

Yue Yang was angry.

“Hey, His Majesty’s numerous beautiful ladies in the harem and Jun Wu You, the old man that clearly has an entire collection of concubines, unable to truly finish counting them. Compared with them, what am I? I’m not even a scum! Let’s talk about it. In the Soaring Dragon Continent or Tong Tian Tower, which of the emperors did not have a dozen women? Compared with them, I am an innocent and dedicated good boy, okay…” This was the self-defense of the transverse man.

“You’re an innocent and dedicated good boy?” The Drunken Cat Big Sis was about to faint.

“Compared with other kings, I would really dare to say yes,” Student Yue Yang’s skin was thicker than the city wall— what a quibble with all but two sentences!

“You! How can you compare with others?” When Drunken Cat Big Sis heard it, she suddenly became angry, “Those stinky men can fool around all they like, but you should be different. You should set a good example for everyone!”

“Cut! It’s better not to be this kind of ‘good role model’!” Student Yue Yang waved his hand disdainfully.

“What?” The Drunken Cat Yu Sis stared at Yue Yang angrily.

“I just want to remind you that I am also one of the cunning men from the criticisms of your mouth…” Yue Yang raised his hand and replied weakly.

“So? Just because you’re a cunning man, can that give you the right to be a playboy” The Drunken Cat Big Sis grasped this key question.

“Can’t it?” Yue Yang asked, blinking his eyes.

“I’m really mad!” Drunken Cat Yu Sis looked at this kid’s face and there was a trace of change momentarily, which was absolutely stunning. She pushed Yue Yang away and rushed to leave, yelling angrily, “Don’t talk to me anymore, I won’t bother to care about you!”

“This girl…” Yue Yang scratched the back of his head, and suddenly felt that Yu Sis was a bit strange. She was not like this normally, so what happened?

No one was around— otherwise, he would have asked clearly.

Yue Yang returned to Si-niang’s residence and saw her bidding goodbye to someone else. He was a little curious; who was looking for Si-niang?

She turned around and saw Yue Yang.

Suddenly, she was overjoyed.

She was in a very good mood. She let Yue Yang sit down with a smile on her face, and while gently combing his long hair, she said joyfully, “After several parents’ discussions, we have finally set a date. Leaving them with an engaged status for too long is rather unfair to Wu Xia and Qian Qian. Of course, you youngsters have your own ideas. If you don’t want to publicise the wedding, we can approve it, but you would have to meet up with your elders to settle things down. It’s not that we are uneasy with how you handle things, but we elders all hope to be able to spread the branches and leaves earlier[1], with grandchildren around our knees. There are always endless wars outside, but the Tong Tian Tower is now peaceful, so you should take care of these happy events. In the future, there will be a little baby who can justify your standings too… The marriages’ how-to’s and the customs of different races vary, but we don’t care about this anyway, it’s your generation’s stuff to deal with. Whatever the format is, you can hold it in a simple manner or a grand one. Regardless of the courtesy, we just want to confirm it.”

T/L Note:[1] Family tree. (Referencing to a tree’s branches)

Yue Yang heard her say so and he knew that he couldn’t hide.

He had no choice but to nod.

Seeing his promise, Si-niang couldn’t help but hold him in her arms with joy, tears dripping down her face, “San Er, Si-niang’s biggest wish in this life is to see you grow up, marry a wife, and give birth to children in the future. If you can have a baby for me to hold and care for in the next two years, then I will have no regrets!”

She thought it would take some lip services to make him nod in agreement.

Who would have thought that he agreed as soon as he mentioned it.

That really surprised her— how could he become so ‘obedient’ after coming back from the Heaven Ream?

Si-niang’s heart jolted and she understood a little. She immediately turned Yue Yang gently over her body, wiping away the tears from the corner of her eyes and stared at him with wet orbs, “San Er, did you encounter something in the Heaven Realm? Tell me, okay? You must not hide anything from me!”

Yue Yang smiled, “In fact, it’s nothing. It’s just a small accident, but it’s okay…”

He briefly talked about the experiences of the Desire Valley and the Beast Valley to Si-niang.

Through this kind of confession, the negative emotions that had originally emerged in Yue Yang’s heart disappeared instantly and became invisible.

Si-niang was surprised and delighted. She couldn’t help but patted her chest with her hands, soothing the heart that was about to pop out of fear. She patted Yue Yang lightly on top of his head, criticizing with a bit of grotesqueness, “Since there were ways to clear the Levels better, why do you have to do extra work? You will scare me to death if you keep this up! You must never be like this again in the future because you have to think about everyone else. If anything ever happens to you, how would we survive in the future? Of course, you’re not fully to blame on this matter; this is fate, after all… Meeting Pandora is also a kind of fate, all destined to turn out to be true. Sometimes, we want to escape but we can’t run from the shackles of fate. But with Sister guiding us from above, we will surely be able to have some good luck in the future!”

Yue Yang suddenly buried his head in her arms, as if he was asleep, and gently closed his eyes.

An infinitely tender expression appeared on Si-niang’s face and her long eyelashes slightly closed.

Gently, she caressed his black hair and his cheek, her voice like the sound of nature under the stars, “Go to sleep, San Er. You had to shoulder everything at home and you have been very tired; this Si-niang knows. But there was no other way— you are the backbone of the family and I want to help you, but…Go to sleep, I am here. You don’t have to be afraid of anything, because everything will be fine!”

In the brilliance of her gentle motherhood, Yue Yang was intoxicated.

It’s not that he was asleep, but rather, he was caught in that unspeakable spiritual world. It was quiet, peaceful, ethereal, and worry-free… Is this the heart of Si-niang?

In such a peaceful spiritual world, even if I slept for 10,000 years, I don’t think I would feel lonely!

When Yue Yang woke up, he found himself lying flat on a bench with his head resting on Si-niang’s knees. His hands were around her waist and he slept like a child. Before he opened his eyes, he heard the voice of Drunken Cat Yu Si, and quickly continued to stay half asleep, only to hear her tremblingly pleading, “Can you cross out my name? Si-niang, I don’t want to marry him!”

“Why?” Si-niang’s voice was as soft as still flowing water.

“Wu Xia, Qian Qiani, and Luo Hua are all on the list. What would it look like if my name was up there together with theirs!” Drunken Cat Yu Sis’s voice had a little cry.

“Is this about the main wife position?” Si-niang asked.

“No, it’s not,” Drunken Cat Yu Sis quickly denied, “Wu Xia is the best candidate; even Qian Qian agrees with this.”

“Then you don’t like my San Er?” Si-niang asked deliberately.

“It’s not that… It’s just that my identity is so different from him. Besides, he always teases me and I don’t know what he is thinking. Si-niang, my heart is very confused, so let me think about it, okay? Please help me persuade His Majesty. It’s alright to care, but I want to make my own decisions about this matter. By the way, don’t let him know. If things don’t happen, I don’t know how to face him in the future. …Si-niang, you are the best, so please help me!” Drunk Cat Yu Sis was anxious as she took Si-niang’s hand and looked at her pitifully with red eyes.

“What are you worried about? I know about your troubles, but it’s totally fine. Go back and think about it, silly child. Who knows when this absurdity will end? Perhaps a lifetime of happiness will come after. Is happiness really that easy to find? If you care so much about what others think, wouldn’t your life be more strenuous? Wu Xia, Qian Qiani and Luo Hua are able to let go, so why are you so stubborn? Silly child, you will only suffer if you are like this!”

Si-niang softly comforted the Drunken Cat Yu Sis and stretched out her hands to hug her gently.

Giving her a little peace of mind.

The emotions of Drunken Cat Yu Jie gradually calmed down. When she saw Yue Yang’s sleeping face and the corners of his lips curled slightly, seeming to have seen some pleasure in his dream, as if he was silently laughing at her even within the depths of a dream. It seemed to be able to see through the abyss of her heart at a glance, and then deliberately laughed at her, too. Suddenly, her heart trembled and it was difficult to control it.

“Si-niang, I’m going back, let me think about it first!” Drunken Cat Yu Sis didn’t dare to look at him again, for fear that she would not be able to look away as she stood up and flew away.

“What a silly child!” Si-niang couldn’t help but to laugh at her.
