“Maybe you don’t need it, but your Father does.” Sima Liu Yun continued, “Your father can only come back after obtaining the Ten Thousand Years Laughing Buddha Fruit.”
“What do you mean?” Sima You Yue frowned.
“Your Father was chased out of the house because of your Mother last time. But he loves the clan a lot, he said before, the clan is his roots.” Sima Liu Feng said.
“What has it got to do with the Ten Thousand Years Laughing Buddha Fruit?”
“Because of your parents, someone of virtue and prestige in the clan was injured. If he doesn’t recover, your Father might not be able to come back. If he recovers and if your Father wants to come back, there’s still a glimpse of hope.”
“What do you mean by ‘if my Father wants to come back’? Where is he now?” Sima You Yue had an ominous presentiment.
Sima Liu Yun hesitated for a while and said, “After your Father brought you away, he never came back, we don’t know where he is too. We looked for him for ten over years, but he was nowhere to be found.”
Indeed.
Sima You Yue’s heart sank and asked, “Is he still alive now?”
“The situation doesn’t look good now.” Sima Liu Yun took out a box and opened it, Sima Liu Xuan’s life jade was lying inside, although it wasn’t completely destroyed, but it was filled with spider webs.
Once Sima You Yue saw that life jade, she felt a sense of closeness, followed by a sharp heartache.
“Father.” She extended her hands to touch the life jade, as it wasn’t completely destroyed, there was still a sense of warm. “When did this happen?”
“A few years ago.” Sima Liu Feng continued, “The clan’s core disciple uses the best jade, it is spiritual. If someone recovers, the cracks will heal on its own.”
“So my Father was injured badly and never recovered, after so many years, he’s the same.” Sima You Yue’s eyes were fogged up, she couldn’t imagine what kind of environment that made a Spirit Master unrecovered for so many years.
“We found out some information, although we haven’t found him, but we already found the trace of him before he went missing.” Sima Liu Feng comforted her.
Sima You Yue raised her eyes and took a glimpse at him, the concerns on his face were genuine.
She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down and said, “Tell me the information.”
“Can’t.” Sima Liu Yun rejected without hesitation, “Those aren’t the things you can touch on, it’s not too late to know one day if you can come back to the clan or after you grow up.”
“Tell me!” Sima You The stared at him firmly.
“I will tell you some of the things that you can know after you get the Laughing Buddha Fruit.” Sima You Yun continued, “If not, I won’t tell you all those dangerous stuff.”
Sima You Yue watched him and said, ” You will only tell me after I give you the Ten Thousand Years Laughing Buddha Fruit?”
“Yes.”
Sima You Yue made a notion, a fruit that looked like Ten Thousand Years Laughing Buddha appeared in her hand and said, “Now, tell me.”
“….”
Sima Liu Yun was stunned and chose one of the informations to tell her. They ended the conversation after half an hour.
“The things you just told me weren’t really related to my Father.” Sima You Yue was unsatisfied.
“I told you, I won’t let you take the risks before you grow up.” Sima Liu Yun insisted, “I promised him that I will protect his daughter.”
“I will find it out myself.” Sima You Yue continued, “From the information you just gave me.”
