CHAPTER 518: CHAPTER 10: YE HULI’S LETTER

Yun Cangxue always harbored hate.

After Yun Cang Lang left, the second brother Yun Cang Lang was ambushed by Emperor Hong City on the front line. To save Yun Cang Lang, Yun Bahe went alone to the border. By the time he brought Yun Cang Lang back, Yun Bahe was also exhausted from his fighting spirit.

At that time, the Yun Residence was in utter chaos. Yun Cangxue, who was only seventeen and already a widow, felt as if the sky was falling down.

She wrote to Yun Canghai, hoping he could return to the Yun Residence to take charge, but Yun Canghai said that he had severed ties with the Yun Residence. In this lifetime, if Yun Bahe did not acknowledge his wife and child, he would not return to the Yun Residence.

Because of this, Yun Cangxue became enraged. She vented all her resentment on Hu Jiusheng and her unborn child.

She secretly informed the Military Department about the village where Yun Canghai and Hu Jiusheng were hiding.

What followed was as Yun Sheng knew, the scene she stumbled upon when she traveled through time.

Hu Jiusheng happened to be in labor when Yun Canghai went out to find a midwife. Little did they know, the group of mysterious people, including the Military Department, came knocking at their door.

When Yun Canghai returned, their dwelling had been burned to the ground.

His wife was gone, and the child was barely clinging to life, having fallen into the hands of those mysterious people.

At that moment, Yun Canghai went insane, killing hundreds of mysterious people, himself barely alive.

If it hadn’t been for Yun Sheng "crying" out in that moment when she crossed through time, he would have likely given up hope completely and taken his own life.

When Yun Sheng recalls once more that night illuminated by fire, Yun Canghai’s face filled with despair, her heart becomes sour.

Yun Cangxue remained silent, knowing that her selfishness and caprice back then had caused great harm to Yun Canghai and Yun Sheng.

"My mother, she isn’t dead," Yun Sheng couldn’t help but hate Yun Cangxue.

But now that she knew her mother wasn’t dead, she could let bygones be bygones with a smile.

"My sister-in-law isn’t dead? Has my brother...?" Yun Cangxue first felt joy, then quickly a sense of relief.

After she left the Yun Residence, she had an epiphany.

Upon reflection, she always felt very sorry for her brother and his wife. Now with her brother in his current condition, Uncle Yun had already informed Yun Cangxue, who wanted to visit, but feared displease Yun Bahe.

If Hu Jiusheng was still alive, perhaps there was a chance to make up for the wrongs she had done in the past.

"You should come with me back to the Yun Residence, you are still part of the Yun Family after all. Some things, as a family, must be made clear," now that her mother wasn’t dead and Yun Bahe had taken her father back, the disparities Yun Sheng had with the Yun Residence over the years seemed to have been unraveled all at once.

After contemplating for a moment, Yun Cangxue decided to return to the Yun Residence with Yun Sheng.

Within the Yun Residence, when it was heard that Yun Sheng had arrived, Yun Bahe strode out.

"The young miss, the young miss has truly returned," Uncle Yun was so excited that he nearly wept openly.

On Yun Bahe’s stern face, in those severe eyes, initially there flashed an ecstasy, but soon after he coughed a few times and forcibly suppressed that joy.

He grunted strangely, then turned to look at Yun Cangxue beside Yun Sheng.

His quick change of expression would make even the masters of the Peking opera face-changing artistry envious.

"Young miss, miss, you have both returned, today is truly an auspicious day. Servants, quickly go and invite the second young master and the young mistress over," upon seeing his master’s demeanor, Uncle Yun was a little headache.

Mumbling to himself, Uncle Yun thought the master really should be more consistent inside and out.

This coffin-like face made it seem as if the young misses owed him millions.

Yun Cang Lang and his wife hurried back home in no time.

And with them came a group of old hunters from the Sky Hunting Corps.

The crowd could care less about etiquette, each one cramming their way into the Yun Residence.

"It really is the young master!"

"Young Master, you’re back!"

"Young Master, we all missed you to death!"

Yun Sheng looked at the crowd, familiar faces one after another, and felt a wave of emotion in her heart.

Yun Canglang saw Yun Sheng and was momentarily choked up.

He walked up and embraced Yun Sheng in a hug.

Yun Sheng was hugely embarrassed; her second uncle still treated her like she was just a six-year-old child.

Yuan Shahu, still wearing a veil, covered her mouth and chuckled aside, chiding, "Cang Lang, hurry up and put Yun Sheng down. She’s a grown lady now. As her second uncle, you really aren’t very proper."

Yun Canglang, hearing this and seeing his niece’s blushing face, also felt a touch embarrassed.

"Hehe, I’m just too happy," Yun Canglang said with a hearty laugh.

Years ago, because of him, Yun Sheng stayed in Dihong City and later went to Xianju. He could not accompany her because of the affairs of the Hunting Corps, and he has always felt very guilty about that.

Latterly, Yuan Bupo returned to Dihong City with Xuan Meimei, and it was said that Yun Sheng was left in Xianju Country.

At that time, Yun Canglang had wanted to rush to Xianju to bring Yun Sheng back.

But when he got to Xianju Country, he was stopped by the Snow Forest Sea.

The Elves informed Yun Canglang that if he didn’t want to make enemies out of Great Zhou and Xianju, he should not force his way through, as the Divine Wind King was protecting Yun Sheng and she was doing quite well in Xianju.

Yun Canglang had also heard of the name of the Xianju Divine Wind King, and he learned from Yuan Bupo that Yun Sheng was seriously injured and only the Life Water of Xianju could heal her.

If he insisted on taking Yun Sheng back, he might delay her treatment.

Yun Canglang had great confidence in Yun Sheng, believing that once she recovered, she would definitely return to Great Zhou, and so he left with the Hunting Corps.

But who would have known, this separation between uncle and niece would last a full three years.

During those three years, there was no word from Yun Sheng, like a kite that had its string cut, her traces becoming difficult to find.

It was only today that she suddenly appeared in Yujing City. Seeing his niece, who had grown and changed so much, Yun Canglang couldn’t help but get teary-eyed.

"Young Master," Zhou Quan, that kid from the Hunting Corps, leaped out, "Young Master, you really came back! That’s great, oh right, I have a few letters from Prince Beiming that he left for me to personally hand to you when you returned."

Yun Sheng had noticed earlier that everyone was there, even Zong Ren was smilingly standing not far away.

The only one who didn’t come was Ye Beiming.

Ye Beiming... is he okay?

The letters from Ye Beiming were sent back every month when he left and after he had left, and since Yun Sheng was not there, they were all held by Zhou Quan.

Three years, thirty-six months, a total of thirty-six letters.

Yun Sheng opened one of the letters, and the entire letter contained the same word, "Wait."

It was always the word "Wait." For every additional month, there was an additional "Wait."

The handwriting of Ye Beiming was profound and forceful as if wanting to pierce through that thin piece of paper.

The last letter had thirty-six "Waits," showing that Ye Beiming had been waiting for Yun Sheng to come back all this time.

Yun Sheng remembered three years ago, the last time she and Ye Beiming had a meeting of minds. Back then, Ye Beiming told her to come back to Yujing within two months because he was going to take part in the Mainland Elite Camp’s examination.

Yun Sheng lost her memory due to the jailbreak incident at Ice Waterfall City, and she missed that very important Mainland Elite Camp examination.

By now, Ye Beiming must already be in the Mainland Elite Camp.
