809: Chapter 524_2 809: Chapter 524_2 Cai Xiangxiang was absolutely certain that one of the young men before her was her brother.
“Come here!”
Like the other young men, he noticed this pair of young male and female fairies, glanced at their relatives, then back at the couple.
They were ordinary people, facing a pair of fairies, they felt a great pressure, emanating from the couple.
Where had ordinary people seen such fairies?
They had only heard of such fairies in legends within their own country.
This man had also heard about it.
When he was young, his sister had followed an Immortal to learn arts.
And she hadn’t returned for more than ten years.
He had once considered going to the Immortal Sect to find a master, but unfortunately, by the time he got to the testing site, many had already been tested and found to be without a Spiritual Root.
The young people in their village had also been tested, and none of them possessed the Immortal Spirit Root.
They could only remain ordinary farmers in their village.
The man and his family had been waiting, waiting for his sister’s return.
They waited until he got married and had children, until a few months ago when, suddenly, a windstorm occurred, and for some unknown reason…
At the fairy’s call, all the young men looked over, eventually realizing who the fairy was calling.
The called young man pointed to himself, unable to believe that the fairy was addressing him.
“Fairy…
fairy, are you calling me?”
Cai Xiangxiang smiled lightly at the man, nodding encouragingly for him to come forward, “Come here, don’t be afraid!
Come to your sister.”
“Sister…?” The man couldn’t believe his ears; could this beautiful fairy truly be his sister?
He looked down at his clothes; they were old garments, though without patches, somehow there was a foul smell, as if they hadn’t been washed in a very long time.
It seemed like just yesterday, they were caught in a windstorm, and had fainted; could it be his sister’s arrival that meant to keep others from knowing and brought the entire village to this unfamiliar cave?
Behind the two fairies, they saw that it was heavily snowing outside.
Snowing?
It was still summer when they fainted; at night, his family had yet to sleep, cooling off in the courtyard.
Why had it turned to winter?
Could this be an illusion?
Was the beautiful fairy before him also an illusion?
The young man couldn’t help but pinch his thigh to know if this was real.
“Ouch!”
The pain let the man knew it felt very real.
Jiang Tang watched the man’s foolish demeanor from the side, not speaking.
This was probably going to be his future brother-in-law.
He thought he should be more tolerant of this future brother-in-law.
Jiang Tang had already taken someone else’s sister as his own, and naturally, he also took this person’s relatives and friends.
He didn’t mind having more relatives and friends; supporting them wasn’t beyond his ability.
Yet Cai Xiangxiang looked at him with a very indulgent expression; this young man before her was her own brother, whom she hadn’t seen for more than ten years.
Sometimes, of course, she had held him; she was the first child of her parents.
After having a brother, she gave even more love to him, and although she had been jealous as a child, she still really liked having a brother.
She became her brother’s protector, holding him, protecting him, and taking care of him when their parents and grandparents were busy.
But back then she was too young, her ability was limited, but over ten years had passed, and she still remembered those happy scenes.
Having been away for more than ten years, during the leisure of her cultivation, she always remembered every detail at home.
She remembered every relative’s face clearly, but she could not remember the faces of childhood friends as they grew up; if she hadn’t seen the transformation of the Western Wolf Demon into her brother’s appearance at their house, she wouldn’t have recognized her own brother.
“Is it really you, sister?” The young man asked the fairy before him again.
“Yes, I am your sister, Cai Xiangxiang, I have returned!”
Cai Xiangxiang spoke her name, making the young man before her, Cai Xiaodi, somewhat believe that this female fairy might indeed be his sister, feeling an undeniable familiarity.
“My sister is back, my sister Cai Xiangxiang is back!”
Cai Xiaodi exclaimed excitedly, his words and expressions conveying joy to the villagers and young men of similar age behind him.
The men stood intently watching the fairy, absorbing their interaction, and becoming excited by their words and expressions.
Cai Xiangxiang had gone to the Immortal Sect to become a disciple of an immortal.
This made her the first person from their village to do so, which was why, despite their village’s poverty and backwardness,
it was still prospering.
Women from outside were still willing to marry into this village unless they were fools or too ugly—almost everyone could find a wife.
There weren’t many bachelors, simply because rumors claimed a fairy had emerged from here, and Windmill Mountain was a village with good Feng Shui.
Backed by a big mountain, it wasn’t a wealthy place, but their lives were still very stable.
Generation after generation passed down, without hope that future generations might have children with a Spiritual Root.
Once children reached four or five years old, adults took responsibility to take them to the testing area of the Immortal Sect to become disciples, but unfortunately, wave after wave of children returned disappointed!
“It’s great, Cai Xiangxiang is back!”
Among these men, some were slightly older than Cai Xiangxiang and had seen her being taken away by the Immortal Master.
There were also peers who had played with her in their youth, and some of the women had already married.
Among these men, they remembered Cai Xiangxiang from their childhood.
It truly felt like a woman transformed greatly by the age of eighteen.
Who could have imagined that the once plain-looking girl could grow up to be so beautiful?
Could becoming an immortal make one so beautiful, so stunningly attractive?
There were also men about the same age as Cai Xiaodi, even younger, who had never seen Cai Xiangxiang but had only heard legends from their families.
Many of these men were already married, merely admiring the fairy-like beauty of the woman before them.
The unmarried men felt drawn to the incredibly beautiful fairy before them, admiring her lovely features.
Jiang Tang felt the gaze of so many boys as he came to Cai Xiangxiang’s side and gently embraced her.
Being held, Cai Xiangxiang blushed in the presence of so many, feeling shy as her little brother watched a man hold her waist in front of their family!
“Sister, who is this…?”
As a man, and seeing Jiang Tang’s actions, Cai Xiaodi certainly understood it was this man declaring his claim in front of them!
“Little brother…” Cai Xiangxiang hesitated, unsure of what to say next.
She could only look up at Jiang Tang, fearing that this man might declare he had no relationship with her.
“I am her boyfriend!” Jiang Tang pronounced, under Cai Xiangxiang’s hopeful gaze, using a phrase that sounded quite confusing to listen to.
Cai Xiangxiang, having not spoken much with Jiang Tang, didn’t understand what “boyfriend” meant and could only interpret it from the man’s expressions and gaze.
“Boyfriend?
What does that mean?”
Cai Xiaodi couldn’t understand, baffled by the language spoken by the man before him.
Could an immortal really speak such confusing words?
Was this the disparity between ordinary people and immortals?
Just as Jiang Tang was about to reply again, everyone’s attention shifted to the young women who had awakened, standing up with bewildered looks in their eyes, staring at the elderly and children on the ground.
Then their gazes followed the men standing up, finally resting on the pair of immortals at the doorway.
Feeling puzzled, the women began to inquire while the men focused their attention on them.
Distracted by his wife’s calling, Cai Xiaodi couldn’t continue talking with his sister and brother-in-law.
He went to his wife’s side and together they picked up their child.
Then they helped lift the elderly person who was still lying on the ground.
The elderly and children hadn’t awakened yet, and they were somewhat worried, their attention on the elderly and children.
“Husband, how did we get here, and who are they?”
Cai Xiaodi’s wife addressed her husband, like the other women, querying their relatives.
The responses they got were still unclear.
They only knew that from a summer night, it had turned into a snowy winter day.
