Chapter 502 Family Reunion


    "This is a time when thousands of families are reunited, bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new."


    "We offer support to people of all ethnic groups across the country."


    "Send a word of thanks to our overseas compatriots and all the sons and daughters of Cathay all over the world."


    "Happy New Year!"


    …


    In front of the TV on New Year''s Eve, several well-known hosts went on a gorgeous and festive stage to send New Year greetings to the people across the country, and the Spring Festival Gala with Aurora characteristics also kicked off.


    Outside the house, the sound of various firecrackers was heard one after another, which made many foreigners who had just come to China feel frightened. Inside the house, families were laughing and having fun.


    At this moment, Luo Jun was sitting on the sofa in Yuan''s hometown, surrounded by various relatives of his master''s family.


    Mr. Yuan was a hundred years old, and he had not only Dean Su''s daughter, but also many descendants of his nephews and grandchildren. There were many grandchildren in the family. The originally spacious villa became a bit crowded after being filled with so many relatives.


    Luo Jun, who had been celebrating the New Year alone for several years, suddenly faced this kind of scene. Even after going through strong winds and waves, he inevitably seemed a little embarrassed.


    Of course, Mr. Yuan could not say that Luo Jun was his direct disciple. He could only say that he was a distant relative and the same generation as Su Manchen.


    This is remarkable. Among Mr. Yuan’s children, Dean Su is the youngest, over sixty years old. Her elder brothers and sisters are no longer here. Luo Jun and her contemporaries, among the dozens of people in the room, are all His junior.


    Therefore, when Luo Jun first came here, everyone was somewhat respectful of him. But after a New Year''s Eve dinner, they got closer to each other, and this group of juniors began to "become neither big nor small".


    "So, you are a relative of Grandma Su''s family?" asked a middle-aged man in his fifties. His name is Yuan Sizhe, and he is Mr. Yuan''s grandson.


    "Yes..." Luo Jun nodded. The so-called Grandma Su was Dean Su''s mother, not Mr. Yuan''s first wife. Mr. Yuan''s first wife died while exploring another world. Mr. Yuan later met Su Manchen''s mother. After getting married, they had Su Manchen. However, the two divorced due to some reasons. The young Su Manchen left with his mother at that time. He also changed his surname to Su and broke off all contact with Mr. Yuan. It wasn''t until many years later, when she also entered the extraordinary world and became the dean, that she met Mr. Yuan because of work...


    The process of two people getting to know each other is enough to make a ethics drama worth dozens of episodes, so I won’t go into details here. All in all, after all these years, Dean Su has tentatively recognized his biological father, and the relationship between the two is not as estranged as it was before. But because of his childhood experience, getting along with Mr. Yuan is still a bit awkward. Even during the Chinese New Year, he is not willing to come to the house. He can only make phone calls or send messages.


    "That''s rare..." Yuan Sizhe touched his chin: "Grandma Su''s relatives all regard grandpa as their enemy..."


    "Oh, I''m just a distant relative... almost no blood relationship, and I haven''t interacted with him for many years." Luo Jun said and introduced himself to Yuan Lao: "If I hadn''t been admitted to Ningdong College this time, I would have investigated my family background. , Mr. Yuan doesn’t know that we have some relatives..."


    "It''s really good. I think back then, I took the exam for several years, but I didn''t pass the exam. I was scolded by my grandfather all the time..." Looking back on the past, Yuan Sizhe sighed endlessly.


    "That''s because you are too stupid." A woman in her forties said: "I passed the exam in just one year!" Her name is Yuan Sijia, the granddaughter of Mr. Yuan and the cousin of Yuan Sizhe.


    "What''s the point of passing the exam? Why don''t you just work as a civil servant after graduation?" Yuan Sizhe curled his lips and said, "I still worked as an explorer for several years."


    "Can''t I ask for stability?" Yuan Sijia retorted: "Besides, don''t talk about it when you were an explorer for several years. You can let the polluters kill you, or my uncle will go to [Martial Arts] to save you!"


    "Speaking of which, how are Xiao Luo''s grades this year? What class will he be assigned to next semester?" On the other side, a man in his thirties asked. His name is Yuan Weien, and he is Mr. Yuan''s great-grandson.


    The final exam of Ningdong College is actually the class placement test for the next semester. Based on the scores and performance, you can decide which class to study in the next semester.


    "I will be in Class A next semester." Luo Jun answered honestly.


    "Oh, you''re an honor student!"


    "It''s amazing!"


    "I heard that you have only been exposed to Yuanqi for less than a year, right?"


    "This is another rising star."


    There was a sound of admiration all around, and a young woman in her mid-twenties next to her said, "I was in Class A back then, why didn''t you praise me so much..." Her name was Yuan Weiyi, and she was Yuan Wei''en''s younger sister.


    "You?" Yuan Weien curled his lips and said: "You don''t even think about it, how much resources did your parents invest in cultivating you? They worked so hard to get you to the fourth level of Peiyuan Realm before you entered school. If you didn''t even get into Class A, , you should apologize to Grandpa!"


    Hearing what he said, the whole family burst into laughter.


    "If you ask me, in the past twenty years, the most promising person in our family has to be Xiao Min." Yuan Sizhe said with a smile.


    "Yes, yes!" After hearing what he said, the others all agreed and turned their attention to a little girl wearing glasses and reading a book in the corner.


    Noticing everyone''s gaze, the girl raised her head and looked around blankly, then lowered her head and immersed herself in the ocean of knowledge.


    This girl''s name is Yuan Lingmin. She is only sixteen years old this year and is Mr. Yuan''s great-great-granddaughter. But looking at her dazed look, the word "sensitivity" has nothing to do with it.


    But Luo Jun didn''t dare to underestimate her because of this. There is basically no problem with a practitioner''s vision. Unless they are interested in wearing glasses, they are all Noble Phantasms. Some are to enhance abilities, and some may be to hide power.


    This girl looked weak, quiet, and not very powerful, but Luo Jun''s keen insight felt that she exuded an extraordinary aura.


    "Speaking of which, Xiao Min will be a senior in high school next year, right? If you ask me, don''t waste that time studying in high school. Just take the exam to Explorer College this year."


    "That won''t work." Xiao Min''s parents said: "Although explorers focus on strength, what is more important is the heart dedicated to the main world. If you are immersed in the world of cultivators too early and lack contact with ordinary people, you will also Many polluters are shaken by the lack of a sense of belonging in this world.”


    After saying that, Xiao Min''s mother stepped forward and touched her daughter''s head: "I hope she can have more contact with those ordinary classmates, experience their lives, and understand their joys, sorrows, and joys... This is also true. It’s what Xiao Min lacks.”


    Luo Jun was also deeply touched by these words. All along, most practitioners have been working hard to improve their realm and make themselves as transcendent as possible from ordinary people. But here, these descendants of Mr. Yuan are still proud to be ordinary people. They are sincerely fighting for ordinary people and the world.


    "Oh, stop talking nonsense!" At this time, Mr. Yuan''s voice came: "The Spring Festival Gala has started, have you forgotten what you should do?"


    Everyone looked and saw that the huge dining table had been pushed into the living room, with a chopping board and rolling pin placed on it.


    "It''s time to make dumplings again..." Several young people were a little impatient and seemed not to be interested in this annual fixed program, but the elders urged the children to come and help.


    For such a big family, there are naturally a lot of dumplings to eat during New Year''s Eve. Everyone gathered around the table, divided the work and cooperated, and began to make dumplings skillfully with the background sound of the Spring Festival Gala.


    As a guest, Luo Jun was naturally embarrassed to just sit there, so he came over to help. He has lived with his grandfather since he was a child, making dumplings is not a problem. In addition, with his current attributes, he took on the important task of rolling the dumplings. Standing in the middle of the table, a rolling pin made the dumplings fly up, and the dumpling skins flew in all directions. In one fell swoop, one person provided for the entire family, men, women, and children.


    Just when everyone was enjoying themselves as a family, Mr. Yuan''s face suddenly changed: "Why this time?" "What''s wrong, grandpa?" Yuan Sizhe asked curiously.


    Mr. Yuan waved his hand: "It''s nothing. I just received the notification of the Chaos mission... Really, I still want to have a rest."


    "Chaos mission...I don''t know what it is about." Yuan Weiyi frowned and said, "I wonder if I can catch up to eat dumplings..."


    "It''s not that easy." Mr. Yuan laughed and scolded: "The Chaos mission will take at least a few hours, and it may take several days. Maybe I will be involved in it this year... If I had known, I would have found a way to enter a mission before the Chinese New Year. That''s all. "It''s useless to complain now. You continue to make dumplings while I make some preparations."


    "Grandpa..." As soon as Mr. Yuan took off his apron, he heard Yuan Lingmin calling him. Mr. Yuan, the extremely talented great-great-granddaughter, liked it very much. The old man looked over with a smile: "What''s wrong, Xiao Min?"


    Yuan Lingmin pushed up his glasses, tilted his head and looked at Mr. Yuan, and suddenly said: "You are going to die!"


    As soon as these words came out, Luo Jun, who was rolling out the dough, let the rolling pin fly out...


    This girl speaks so unscrupulously. During the Chinese New Year when he was a child, his grandfather had to scold him for even mentioning the word "medicine", not to mention illness or death. Yuan Lingmin not only dared to say it, but also directly pointed at her nose and said that her grandfather was going to die. ? Shouldn''t this be beaten up and thrown out by the adults in the family?


    Luo Jun looked around with some anxiety, only to find that no one scolded her at all, but everyone looked serious.


    "Xiao Min, are you telling the truth?" Yuan Sijia came over and asked.


    Yuan Lingmin nodded, pointed at Mr. Yuan and said, "Yes, it''s a very heavy death aura, a chance of a narrow escape."


    Everyone looked worried when they heard this, even Mr. Yuan frowned: "When did it start?"


    "Just now, you said you received the Chaos mission."


    "How is it possible!" Yuan Sijia said in surprise: "Grandpa has a death-avoiding treasure, how could he show his dead appearance?"


    "The Noble Phantasm is not omnipotent..." Mr. Yuan nodded: "It seems that this mission is not easy."


    Luo Jun probably understood this time. It was obvious that Yuan Minmin''s words were not without purpose. She could obviously see something.


    "Xiao Min is an Insight sect, and a very talented Insight sect." Yuan Weien on the side saw Luo Jun''s curiosity and explained: "The practice of the Insight sect has two directions: real and virtual. The ultimate direction of the real direction is The eye of truth can see through all disguises and lies, and can even see through people’s hearts. Song Yi from your school is a leader in cultivating the eye of truth.”


    "The other virtual direction, the ultimate is called the Eye of Heaven, also known as the Eye of Destiny. By cultivating this direction, although the ability to see through disguise is not as strong as the real eye, you can see the information hidden behind things and see destiny. The context, and even the ability to predict the future.”


    "Xiao Min has a very strong gift of clairvoyance, and what she is best at is being able to see other people''s death signs. Although this ability is not yet mature, and often cannot be used as she pleases, but when she is smart, she can always hit the mark!"


    After listening to Yuan Weien''s words, Luo Jun also frowned: "So, Mr. Yuan''s mission is more dangerous than bad? Isn''t there a way to crack it?"


    "Of course there is." Yuan Weien added: "The Sky Eye only sees the current direction of destiny. If the current conditions change, it is possible to change the destiny."


    As soon as he finished speaking, Yuan Sizhe had already stood up: "In this case, I will accompany Grandpa on the mission! I also have a follower card in my hand, which can follow people who have been recruited for the Chaos mission and participate in the mission together."


    As he said that, he actually took out a card, which was faintly glowing with blue light. It should be a rare treasure.


    "No." Yuan Lingmin shook his head: "Grandpa''s death sign has not diminished at all... Moreover, when you took out the follower card, uncle, the death sign also appeared... the death sign of ten deaths but no life."


    "What?" Yuan Sizhe was embarrassed on the spot: "You said I died more completely than grandpa?"


    "Don''t make trouble with your half bucket of water." An old woman in her sixties came next to her and said, "Let me accompany grandpa."


    This old woman''s name is Yuan Sining, and she is Mr. Yuan''s granddaughter.


    "Second sister, are you going?" Yuan Sizhe said: "You haven''t recovered from your injury last time, have you?"


    "It''s no longer a serious problem." Yuan Sining shook his head: "My ability is auxiliary and can protect grandpa." As she said that, she grabbed the follow card from Yuan Sizhe and looked at Xiao Min.


    Yuan Lingmin shook his head: "Grandpa Ancestor''s appearance of death is slightly weakened, but Second Auntie''s death is certain!"


    "You all should stop arguing." At this time, a 70-year-old man with a beard stood up and said, "I''d better go."


    Yuan Sijie, the eldest grandson of Mr. Yuan, is also the grandfather of Yuan Linmin. Apart from Mr. Yuan, he is the elder in the Yuan family who has the highest level of cultivation.


    "But brother, you just participated in a mission a few days ago, right? You can''t use the follower card."


    Yuan Sijie waved his hand and took out another card: "It''s okay. I have a refresh card. I can erase the mission progress within the cycle and do another mission." As he said that, he took the follower card from Yuan Sining''s hand.


    Xiao Min shook her head again: "Grandpa Zu''s death appearance has hardly diminished. Grandpa, your death appearance is extremely serious..."


    "So dangerous?" Everyone was surprised when they heard it.


    "Okay, okay." Mr. Yuan waved his hand: "It''s just a narrow escape. It''s not like I haven''t experienced it before... Isn''t there a glimmer of hope? Don''t worry, I will come back to celebrate the New Year."


    "No, how can you let grandpa (great-grandpa) risk his life? I want to go with him!" Everyone volunteered. During the quarrel, Yuan Sijie''s hand was empty, and the two cards disappeared.


    "Who took my card?" Yuan Sijie said angrily. At this time, he saw Luo Jun standing next to Mr. Yuan holding the refresh card and the follow card: "Let me go."


    "You?!" Everyone didn''t expect that this young distant relative would actually come forward.


    "How can this be done? You are a guest and a student, how can I let you..." Everyone was about to dissuade him, but Luo Jun smiled slightly, injected his energy, and used the two cards.


    "You... are fooling around!" Mr. Yuan was shocked when he saw this: "How come you, you brat, are making your own decisions!"


    Others also became angry: "Who else has a follower card? Take it out quickly?!"


    Just when everyone was in chaos, Yuan Lingmin suddenly spoke.


    "Grandpa''s death scenes have been greatly reduced!"
