CHAPTER 547: CHAPTER 547: LANDSCAPING AGAIN

Yuan Kaiyang gave his father a hug and then hugged his mother.

He said he wanted to sleep with them, but in truth, neither of the couple slept a wink, and with hardly any sleep last night, their eyes were bloodshot, filled with fatigue.

"I’m off." Yuan Kaiyang turned and walked towards the balcony.

Deng Huiling took a few quick steps as though she wanted to catch up to him, but Yuan Hesheng gently held her arm and shook his head slightly.

Sooner or later, their son would leave; clinging to him would only add more annoyance and sorrow.

At that moment, Yuan Kaiyang turned from the balcony to look at them, then broke into a smile.

The couple’s faces, originally full of sorrow, also hastily forced a smile.

This time, Yuan Kaiyang didn’t speak to them; he simply raised his hand to wave, then slowly disappeared from their sight.

Only then did Yuan Kaiyang burst into tears, crying his heart out, and amidst his tears, he transformed into a gust of Yin Wind and rose from the ground, flying out the window and into the sky...

However, he quickly stopped crying, as this was his first time flying, and the vast expanse of the land captured his attention, making him forget his sorrow.

But for Yuan Hesheng and his wife, the pain of separation was devastating, for farewells are always painful.

Sometimes seeing someone again is not as good as not seeing them.

Still, though it added sadness, it also dispelled the long-standing gloom in their hearts.

After the sadness, they gathered themselves, ready to embrace a new life.

The Banner Master’s words are like imperial decrees to the Fan Soul, leaving no room for defiance. So even though Yuan Kaiyang was enchanted by the skies and curious about the land, he returned promptly to Shen Siyuan’s side.

"Brother."

Yuan Kaiyang glanced at Dou Dou and Duoduo beside him. He didn’t know what plan the Banner Master had for him, but he didn’t feel afraid or anxious. Perhaps because the Banner Master was so trustworthy in Yuan Kaiyang’s heart.

"Don’t worry, you’ll have a good place to go."

Shen Siyuan patted his head. The little guy had thick eyebrows and big eyes and looked like a little man.

He believed Yuan Kaiyang would soon become friends with Xu Shilong, Lan Xinyi, and the others.

Thinking of this, Shen Siyuan didn’t waste words. He focused his mind, formed a seal with his fingers, and directly absorbed Yuan Kaiyang into the Yin City within the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

It had been a long time since the Landscaping Technique expanded the world within the banner.

Thinking of this, Shen Siyuan glanced out the window.

At that moment, he stood on the 24th floor of Tianfeng Building, with most of Bin Hai visible before him.

With a wave of his hand, the Ten Thousand Soul Banner in his palm disappeared into the void, growing with the wind, overshadowing the sky. Despite its tattered surface, its imposing presence couldn’t be concealed, casting a massive shadow over all of Bin Hai.

Dou Dou and Duoduo immediately crawled to the window, amazed at the sight.

Ordinary people would definitely not see this scene, but as Fan Souls, the Ten Thousand Soul Banner was naturally visible to them.

Besides the two of them, Xiao Yue, who stayed home, also came outside and looked up into the void.

Of course, besides the three Fan Souls, there was another person in Bin Hai who noticed.

This person was naturally Tang Tang, who suddenly felt a giant shadow cast down as she returned home with her mom after grocery shopping in the morning, and quickly lifted her head to look towards the sky.

"han~"

She broke into a foolish smile; she recognized this flag. Last time Shen Siyuan raised it, Tang Tang was by his side.

"Ah?"

Seeing Tang Tang suddenly stop, looking up at the sky, Mao Sanmei was curious and also halted her steps to look up.

The weather was excellent today; the breeze and sun were pleasant, and the sky was as blue as a mirror with drifting clouds, presenting a scene of peace and calm.

However, nothing seemed unusual to Mao Sanmei’s eyes; she had seen such a sky countless times.

Yet she didn’t interrupt Tang Tang, instead standing quietly by her side.

She wasn’t great at educating children but tried her best to fulfill her daughter’s wishes.

At this moment, Tang Tang suddenly lowered her head to look at the shadow beneath her feet, then quickly moved her gaze to nearby shadows.

Mao Sanmei moved her eyes following Tang Tang’s gaze, and at that moment, she seemed to see the shadow at the wall corner twist slightly.

However, she soon thought it was a hallucination and didn’t take it to heart.

Tang Tang then looked up at the sky again.

-----------------

"I knew you were here," suddenly a voice echoed behind Shen Siyuan.

Shen Siyuan stopped using the Ten Thousand Soul Banner to imprint on the real world, turning to look.

He saw Taozi standing behind him with both hands clasped, smiling.

Today she wore a beige floral dress with a centipede braid, its tail resting on her chest, revealing a hint of dazzling whiteness.

Her once curvy figure now showed a touch of mature charm.

"Do you find work dull? You don’t have to come if you don’t want to; whether you’re here or not makes no difference, hehe~"

Playfully, she walked up to stand shoulder to shoulder with Shen Siyuan.

"What are you looking at?"

Taozi curiously raised her head to look at the sky, but there was nothing unusual apart from a few clouds in the blue sky.

Just as she was about to speak again, Shen Siyuan suddenly put his arm around her shoulders.

"We’re at the company, and people will see..."

Her words weren’t finished when her mouth opened wide, pupils contracted instantly, filled with shock.

"What... what is this?"

Taozi’s voice was curious yet intrigued with a hint of fear.

"Don’t be afraid."

Shen Siyuan comforted her, formed a seal with his fingers, and immediately, a massive vortex appeared on the Ten Thousand Soul Banner; the world seemed like an abstract painting, being pulled inside, though the world itself remained unchanged.

The opposition between motion and stillness created an intense visual impact, even making people nauseous, like the feeling of sudden acceleration in a fast-moving vehicle, causing dizziness.

Taozi felt just that; without Shen Siyuan supporting her, she might have collapsed.

Fortunately, the process was short; Shen Siyuan’s fingers formed a seal again, and the Sky-reaching Banner spun quickly, shrinking until it was palm-sized, and returned to Shen Siyuan’s hand.

Of course, Taozi couldn’t see this; to her, the Sky-reaching Flag disappeared into thin air, though she noticed Shen Siyuan’s hand motion and saw a tiny flag appear in his palm, realizing it wasn’t vanishing but being retracted.

"This... this..."

Taozi’s eyes widened, her cheeks blushing, emotions overwhelmed, leaving her speechless for a moment.

"Let’s go." Shen Siyuan turned to walk towards the office.

"Wait... wait a minute, you haven’t told me what that was."

Seeing Shen Siyuan was about to leave, Taozi snapped back and hurriedly asked.

"You’ll understand eventually."

"But I want to know now."

"I can’t..."

"Humph... then I’ll have Ruan Ruan ask you," Taozi said discontentedly.

"Even if she asks, I won’t tell."

"I don’t believe you." Taozi said that she didn’t believe him, but her lips curled slightly.

Shen Siyuan let Taozi see this because slowly he needed to inform them of certain things. Previously, being unrecognized, he simply used the term ’cultivator’ to brush off inquiries.

Now it was different; he had a foundation.

The Qiong Province Governor, overseeing ghost gods, was a legitimate Divine, unlike some demonic outsider preaching wild fox doctrine.
