Fang Xian felt a little ashamed. Most fathers and sons, after a long separation, would be tearful upon reunion.
His father, however, was even more enraged; upon seeing his son, he was filled with hatred and drew his sword to attack.
But upon hearing Fang Miaomiao's words, he suddenly remembered the dungeon rules and understood.
Now that he controlled the entire Great Thousand World, he could ignore the dungeon rules and freely enter and exit.
This action, however, turned what should have been a heartwarming reunion into a battlefield of swords and spears.
Fang Xian shook his head and smiled bitterly, extending a single finger to block Fang Miaomiao's attack.
With a loud "clang," the impact made Fang Miaomiao's hand go numb.
He quickly retreated, staring at Fang Xian in astonishment.
Although this was a level 99 dungeon, clearing it would be a piece of cake for Fang Miaomiao.
But the monster resembling Fang Xian had actually blocked his attack with a single finger—it was simply terrifying.
Cai Cuicui frowned slightly, staring intently at Fang Xian.
She knew Fang Miaomiao's strength all too well; no one on the entire Blue Star could defeat them.
The "Fang Xian" who should have been instantly killed was completely unharmed.
"Honey, it seems we've encountered a mutated BOSS."
"Hmm, very likely."
Fang Miaomiao scrutinized Fang Xian, trying to view his basic information, but it wouldn't display.
There are two reasons why it wouldn't display:
One: The target isn't a dungeon creature.
Two: The target's level is too high or its strength is too great.
This made him even more certain that "Fang Xian" was indeed the newly mutated, powerful BOSS.
Fang Xian looked at their serious expressions, utterly speechless.
"Mom and Dad, can you stop overthinking things?"
"Are we as good as you at pretending? Going around claiming everyone as your parents, aren't you afraid they'll be driven crazy?"
Seeing this, Fang Xian knew further words were pointless, so he directly used "Trick: Mind Interference" to dispel their doubts.
They looked at Fang Xian as if struck by lightning; their weapons slipped from their hands, their bodies stiffened abruptly, and their eyes were filled with disbelief.
Cai Cuicui's lips trembled slightly, her eyes instantly reddening, tears welling up but not falling.
Fang Miaomiao stared wide-eyed at Fang Xian, a smile involuntarily creeping onto her lips.
"Xiao Xian!"
Cai Cuicui called out first, her voice trembling with surprise and joy.
She could no longer control her emotions, and started running towards Fang Xian, her steps somewhat hurried, yet incredibly resolute.
Fang Miaomiao followed closely behind, her usually steady steps now becoming rapid.
They rushed to Fang Xian, as if afraid he would disappear again, and hugged him tightly.
Cai Cuicui gently stroked Fang Xian's face with both hands, tears finally welling up and streaming down her cheeks.
"Xiao Xian, you're finally back!"
She choked out, her voice filled with longing and joy.
Fang Miaomiao patted Fang Xian's shoulder, her voice a little hoarse.
"It's good you're back, it's good you're back!"
His eyes glistened with tears, but his face beamed with a happy smile.
Fang Xian hugged his parents tightly, feeling their familiar scent, his heart filled with warmth.
"Dad, Mom, I'm back."
Their laughter echoed for a long time in the instance, the joy of a family reunion, the truest form of kinship.
"By the way, Xiao Xian, how did you get back from the Great Thousand World?"
Faced with Fang Miaomiao's question, Fang Xian recounted everything, giving a brief account of his experiences in the Great Thousand World.
Fang Miaomiao and Cai Cuicui listened to Fang Xian's story, their emotions fluctuating like a rollercoaster.
They were proud of Fang Xian's success, worried about the dangers he faced… worried about the setbacks he encountered…
Well… apparently there were no dangers… no setbacks…
It was all smooth sailing, a classic invincible protagonist story.
Of course, Fang Xian omitted the details of how he won over so many beauties, only briefly mentioning that he currently had 73 wives.
Fang Miaomiao and Cai Cuicui stared at Fang Xian in disbelief, unsure what to say.
Then Cai Cuicui suddenly remembered something and quickly asked.
"Xiao Xian, how's the child?"
Fang Miaomiao, hearing this, anxiously looked at Fang Xian.
"Yes, yes, how many grandchildren do you have?"
Fang Xian's face beamed with happiness as he cheerfully replied,
"Eight children in total, five boys and three girls."
"That's wonderful!"
The two elders' faces lit up with radiant smiles, overjoyed.
"Where are they? When can we go see them?"
"I can go after I pick up two more wives."
"Okay."
They were already immune to Fang Xian's words; they weren't surprised by his many wives. But the thought of this question made Cai Cuicui glare at Fang Xian with some dissatisfaction.
"Xiao Xian, with so many wives, why are your children still the same eight on Blue Star?"
"Exactly!"
Fang Miaomiao immediately chimed in, annoyed,
"So many wives, only eight children? Is that reasonable?"
"Don't just be busy all day long. Take some time to go to the hospital, take your medicine when you need it. Don't delay."
Fang Xian felt ashamed. How did he become the one with "unspeakable troubles" here?
"A dignified 'Chaotic Divine Body,' can't just have children whenever he wants, can he?"
If anyone else dared to say that, he'd tear their mouth in half and see if they'd still dare to spout nonsense.
But these were his parents, the two people who loved him most, what was wrong with wanting more grandchildren?
Fang Xian nodded repeatedly, giving an awkward smile.
"Okay, Mom and Dad, I'll try my best when we get back, I'll definitely let you have more grandchildren."
"Hmm, that's good. Xiao Xian, actually, your dad has a prescription for having children here, do you want to take it back..."
Fang Miaomiao said as she took out a traditional Chinese medicine prescription from her storage ring, preparing to hand it to Fang Xian.
"Stop."
Sometimes Fang Xian really wanted to call the police, he solemnly declared again.
"Dad, please take it back. I promise you, I'll work hard when I get back, a hundred times harder."
"Okay…"
Fang Miaomiao took the recipe, preparing to put it back in her storage ring, then looked at Fang Xian again.
"Really don't want it? Maybe we should try…"
"Hello, 110? I want to call the police."
Fang Miaomiao: ???
…
Fang Xian waited for the gifts Fang Miaomiao and Cai Cuicui had bought for several days, feeling completely numb.
He had said he could come back anytime, but his parents insisted on preparing gifts for each of their daughters-in-law, not wanting to embarrass them.
Ji Xiaolan and Ji Xiaofen accompanied them all the way, traveling the world together to buy gifts.
Fang Xian looked helpless and could only let them buy it.
A few days later, the purchase was finally complete.
Looking at the expectant Fang Miaomiao, Cai Cuicui, Ji Xiaolan, and Ji Xiaofen, Fang Xian waved his hand, and a vortex appeared out of thin air.
"Let's go, we'll go back to
—the Great Thousand World now."
