Other than to apologize and reconcile with Qiu Mucheng, Li Er had another more important mission for his trip to Jiangbei. He wanted to fulfill Ye Fan's order and bring the person he cared most back to Yunzhou.
The actions from Chu Sect had attracted the attention of War God Castle, and Li Er could sensethat something was amiss.
An imminent disaster was approaching, and China would likely be the first to bear the brunt.
“Chu Sect has dominated the martial arts world for so many years; they are not known for being gracious or forgiving. Mr. Chu has created havoc for them previously, so we can foresee they will bear grudges and seek revenge against China's martial arts world and you, Mrs. Chu.
“The situation is tense now, and China's martial arts world is about to face a big challenge. I beg you to go back with us to Yunzhou, Mrs. Chu. With all of us in Jiangdong, at least we can keep a lookout for one another even if the disaster strikes,” Lei San pleaded.
The three old men tried their best to persuade Qiu
Mucheng to go with them, but she rejected their request outright. It was something the trio did not expect.
“You have to come with us, Mrs. Chu. Please reconsider your decision, not only for yourself but also for Mr. Chu. You are the one he missed most in this world. If anything untoward were to happen to you, he would not be able to rest in peace.” Li Er implored her to change her mind.
Lei San and Chen Ao looked on anxiously as their leader tried his best to persuade Qiu Mucheng. Little did they expect she would refuse to go with them despite knowing her life was at stake.
They wondered if she was still mad at Ye Fan and had not forgiven him.
“Why don't you come with us, Ms. Qiu? Do it for Ye Fan. You are his wife, and this kid is his only flesh and blood. Can you really bear to see his only son perish here?” Tearfully, Chen Nan stepped in to help persuade her as well.
Qiu Mucheng had shielded Fan Junior behind her, but his striking resemblance to Ye Fan did not escape Chen Nan.
The little boy had his father's nose and eyes.
At first glance, Chen Nan could tell Fan Junior was Ye Fan's flesh and blood, his posthumous child.
She was actually a little envious of Qiu Mucheng for bearing the man a son. It was something she had dreamt of doing herself. Alas, she knew it would remain a pipe dream for her.
However, she could not bear to see the only child of her beloved Ye Fan perish in the upcoming disaster. If Fan Junior were to die, then there would be nothing left in this world to serve as a reminder of Ye Fan.
“ I -1 s this really Mr. Chu's son?” After hearing what Chen Nan said, Li Er and Lei San were elated and started to take note of the little boy.
Never in their wildest dreams had the three men expected there would be a living heir for their master. They took a closer look at the boy, and judging by his looks and age, they were convinced Chen Nan was right.
Qiu Mucheng's silence meant they were right.
Li Er, Lei San, and Chen Ao broke into tears of joy as they gathered around Fan Junior.
“Hahaha, Mr. Chu has a descendent!” “Mr. Chu has a son and Jiangdong has an heir!”
They were overjoyed that Ye Fan had someone to continue his lineage.
The trio thought he had not fathered any sons, so after his death, they felt a deep sense of loss. They gloomily thought that was the end of his legacy.
