Regarding Cold as Ice, Seventh Master really couldn't believe it. Xiao Yun was supposed to be dead; how could he possibly appear in Island Nation?
Unfamiliar with these people, Long Yan was also secretly astonished after hearing Cold as Ice's words. What was this Xiao Yun about, and how could he casually expose his true identity?
After a moment of thought, Long Yan's mood calmed down again. With Xiao Yun's intelligence, if these people weren't trustworthy, he wouldn't have revealed his identity so easily.
At that moment, Cold as Ice smiled and pointed at Xiao Yun, introducing him to Seventh Master: "Seventh Master, this is Mr. Longsan, who is actually Xiao Yun!"
"Uh, what did you say? Mr. Longsan is Xiao Yun?" After hearing Cold as Ice's words, Seventh Master was stunned and looked at Xiao Yun in disbelief.
Xiao Yun squinted his eyes and smiled, saying, "Seventh Master, I am indeed Xiao Yun!"
"Oh my God, Xiao Yun is a legendary figure! I can't believe you are Xiao Yun, that one..." Seventh Master was clearly excited and somewhat incoherent.
Xiao Yun naturally knew what Seventh Master wanted to say and replied, "Seventh Master, I didn't actually die. That was just a smoke bomb released by Dragon Team to facilitate my mission here in Island Nation!"
At this point, Xiao Yun no longer concealed anything from Seventh Master and directly explained the situation to him.
Only then did Seventh Master realize that the Heart-Cleansing Pearl in the hands of the mysterious woman behind Paradise Beauty Club was actually the Heavenly Mechanism Mirror.
After listening to Xiao Yun's account, Seventh Master stood up from the table with excitement and clasped his fists: "Xiao Yun, although I am in Island Nation, my heart that loves Huaxia will never change. I believe that if the Heart-Cleansing Pearl is to be revealed on Snow Festival day, the island side will definitely be on high alert. If you need my Northeast Gang's assistance to seize the Heart-Cleansing Pearl, I would not hesitate to go through fire and water!"
Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Thank you, Seventh Master. As for the day we seize the Heart-Cleansing Pearl, I can handle it alone. Having too many people would only bring unnecessary trouble. This time I invited you here mainly to ask for your help with one thing..."
"What is it? Just bring it up. Whether it's one thing or a hundred, I, Seventh Master, will definitely do my best!" Seventh Master said loudly.
"Seventh Master is indeed a straightforward person!" Xiao Yun said. "The situation is like this: I am worried that after I obtain the Heart-Cleansing Pearl and leave Island Nation, those who have been close to me will be implicated. Therefore, I thought of asking Seventh Master and the disciples of Three Immortals Hall to handle the aftermath and help them relocate to a safe place!"
Seventh Master laughed and said, "This is a small matter. Just let me know who they are, and you can give me the list and contact information!"
Xiao Yun knew that if Seventh Master said he could do it, he would definitely follow through. He then provided him with the contact information for Kato Miyoko, Kato Yoshiko and her sister, as well as Akiyano Koiko.
Since entering Paradise Beauty Club, these women had all had close interactions with him. Although Xiao Yun and Kato Miyoko appeared to be at odds on the surface, he understood in his heart that she liked him.
The Military Agent of Island Nation could do anything. Xiao Yun was worried that after he escaped from Island Nation, their close relationship would implicate them, which was why he made this decision.
In front of Kawagawa Haruko, Xiao Yun also presented the gold medal of Three Immortals Gate to Floral Beauty Jade, appointing her as the new leader of Three Immortals Gate. Kawagawa Haruko was exceptionally intelligent; she could see at a glance that although Cold as Ice had taken over the leadership position, the true leader should still be Xiao Yun.
Kawagawa Haruko immediately knelt on the ground and bowed to Floral Beauty Jade, saying, "Master, please accept your disciple's bow!"
Seventh Master was certainly aware of the power of Three Immortals Hall. Seeing his daughter become the leader of Three Immortals Hall with Xiao Yun's help excited him immensely; his eyes sparkled with excitement.
"Charming Jade, hurry up and help Miss Haruko up!" Seventh Master urged from the side.
As long as Kawagawa Haruko was helped up, it meant that Floral Beauty Jade had accepted the leadership position of Three Immortals Gate. Seventh Master knew this well.
Encouraged by Xiao Yun's gaze, Floral Beauty Jade extended her hands and pulled Kawagawa Haruko up from the ground, smiling as she said, "Haruko sister, from now on we are family; there's no need to be polite!"
"Thank you, Master!" Kawagawa Haruko replied.
The dishes were all served on the table, and several people sat around it.
As the host, Floral Beauty Jade held the wine jug and was about to pour wine for Xiao Yun when she was stopped by Xiao Yun.
Xiao Yun smiled and said, "Sister Mei Yu, elders come first. Since your father is here, you should pour wine for him first!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Seventh Master was suddenly taken aback.
Seventh Master understood that the "father" Xiao Yun referred to was himself, but Floral Beauty Jade had always called him "Godfather." How could she call him father?
For many years, he had wished in his dreams for Floral Beauty Jade to call him father.
At that moment, Meng Qiye looked nervously at Floral Beauty Jade—this daughter who had carried her mother's surname since birth. He knew very well her personality; ever since he brought her to Island Nation, he had undoubtedly planted a time bomb beside him.
Seventh Master had helped Floral Beauty Jade establish the Drunken Dragon Gang, while Floral Beauty Jade was secretly supporting Jizhu Hall in expanding its influence. The reason behind this was that she wanted to use Wei Qinghe's power to eliminate him in the future.
He understood many things clearly; as long as he lived a day longer, his daughter would never let him go.
However, even though he knew what Floral Beauty Jade was doing, Seventh Master did not regret supporting her in anything. No matter what, as long as his daughter was happy, he would rather die than not help her.
As he grew older, Seventh Master had seen through many things.
At that moment, he truly wanted to hear his daughter call him "Dad."
Meanwhile, Floral Beauty Jade's eyes were fixed on Xiao Yun.
"Go ahead!" Xiao Yun smiled and encouraged her with a glance to pour wine for Seventh Master.
In that instant, the air in the room seemed to freeze, so quiet that they could hear each other's breathing.
After hesitating for a moment, Floral Beauty Jade slowly approached Seventh Master and softly said, "Dad, I’m pouring wine for you!"
Her voice was soft, but that one word "Dad" instantly stirred up a storm in Seventh Master's heart.
He finally heard Floral Beauty Jade call him "Dad."
To earn this one word from his daughter made Seventh Master feel that he would gladly jump off a cliff at that moment; it was worth it.
"Charming Jade, my child—" Seventh Master suddenly burst into tears.
Thud!
Seventh Master suddenly knelt on one knee before his daughter, crying out hoarsely, "Charming Jade, my child, I’m sorry. I’m sorry for your deceased mother. I am a sinner before you..."
"Dad, let go of the past. I have already forgotten what happened. Please get up; don’t embarrass me!" Floral Beauty Jade hurriedly pulled Seventh Master up from the ground.
The father and daughter embraced each other, crying uncontrollably. They both knew in their hearts that without Xiao Yun's persuasion, they would not have been reunited.
As they left the Drunken Pavilion, snowflakes began to fall from the night sky like goose feathers.
Xiao Yun sat in Long Yan's car as Long Yan drove and said with a laugh, "Xiao Yun, impressive! I didn't expect you to be so capable!"
"What am I impressive for?" Xiao Yun replied, pretending to be puzzled.
Long Yan continued, "In just a few words, you merged the Three Immortals Gate and the Drunken Lady's Drunken Dragon Gang. This new force stationed in Island Nation will probably follow your command from now on!"
Xiao Yun touched his nose and said, "You can even see that?"
Long Yan added, "What's even more impressive is that you've prepared a backup plan for your women. I have to admire you for that!"
Xiao Yun smiled and said, "This is mainly related to my character; whatever I do, I must see it through to the end!"
"Conceited!" Long Yan looked at Xiao Yun with disdain and said, "I've realized your biggest trait is that you have the thickest skin in the world!"
Hearing Long Yan's words, Xiao Yun broke into a sweat and thought, sometimes I'm shy too, you know?
