When he saw his son, Mo Xinyan sitting up from the ground, Mr. Mo Da couldn't control his emotions and excitedly grabbed his son's hand.
The leader of this powerful ancient martial arts sect also burst into tears.
"Yan'er."
Because of the mistake he made sixteen years ago, he endured the pain of losing his son for sixteen years, and even had his wife turn against him, but he did not shed a single tear.
But today, when he saw his son was resurrected, he couldn't help but cry.
Mo Xinyan looked at Mr. Mo Da in surprise. His memory was a little vague. In his impression, his old father only had half-white hair. But when he woke up, his father's hair and beard were all white, as if he had aged by ten years.
"Dad, what happened to me? I remember being sprayed with cold air by the ice beast, and everything went black before my eyes..."
"Yan'er, you have been frozen by that cold air for sixteen years."
"Sixteen years. God, that's a long time."
Mo Lingshan also hugged her father's arm and cried like a tearful person.
Mo Xinyan looked at Mo Lingshan in surprise. At first, he thought Mo Lingshan was his wife, but Mo Lingshan looked so young, still a child, but looked so much like his wife Duan Qiuhe.
When he heard Mo Lingshan calling him dad and learned that he had been frozen for sixteen years, he suddenly realized that this beautiful girl who looked like Duan Qiuhe was his daughter.
Some dreamlike fragments flashed through his mind. He dreamed that his daughter had grown up, holding his hand, talking to him and telling him stories.
That was a reflection of his active consciousness when he was frozen into an ice sculpture.
In his memory, his daughter was just a baby, but when he woke up from a dream, she had grown into a beautiful girl, which made him feel both sad and happy.
He touched Mo Lingshan's hot tears excitedly: "Are you Lingshan, or is your name Lingshan?"
That was the name he gave his daughter.
Lingshan threw herself into her father Mo Xinyan's arms and burst into tears: "I am Lingshan, I often come here to see you. From childhood to adulthood, I have been talking to you, but you always ignored me and slept in the ice."
"Silly child, stop crying. Daddy is awake now and will talk to Shan'er."
In the past sixteen years, he missed too many days. He did not see the girl babbling, did not accompany her when she first learned to walk, and did not teach her to throw her first punch.
Mo Xinyan's eyes stopped at the door of the ice cellar. Grandma Mo was standing at the door excitedly, but she didn't dare to go in. She suspected that she was dreaming.
Many times, she dreamed that her son was resurrected and stood in front of her again, but when she woke up, she found a wet pillow and her son Mo Xinyan was still frozen in the ice for ten thousand years.
"Mom, your hair has turned completely white too."
Mo Xinyan felt mixed emotions. When he woke up from the dream, his daughter had grown up and his parents had all grown old.
"Yan'er, I'm sorry. I wish it was me who was frozen in the ice instead of you."
"Mom, let's not talk about the past. It was me who insisted on fighting the ice beast. It has nothing to do with you."
Mo Xinyan thought of something, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes: "Mom and Dad, where is Qiu He? Where is she? I'm resurrected, she should be very happy too."
Mr. Mo, Mrs. Mo, and Mo Lingshan all looked embarrassed. No one wanted to tell Mo Xinyan the news that Duan Qiuhe had left sixteen days ago.
Speaking of her daughter-in-law, Aunt Mo's face turned gloomy, but she was helpless. She had no right to ask Duan Qiuhe to stay. She just hated her for leaving and ignoring Mo Lingshan for the past sixteen years.
"she… "
Grandpa Uncle said bluntly: "She ran away sixteen years ago. When she saw you were frozen into ice, she ran away."
Mr. Mo Da and the others all looked at my uncle in reproach. Mo Xinyan had just woken up, how could they provoke him like that
Uncle felt the reproachful gazes from his elder sister Aunt Mo and Mo Lingshan, and he said innocently, "You have to tell Xinyan that this is the truth. I just told the truth. Why are you blaming me?"
The aunt pinched my uncle and said, "Shut up and say less."
Sixteen years ago, his wife ran away. Mo Xinyan was stunned at first, but then he calmed down and sighed, "Alas, sixteen years. I can't let her stay with me, an ice man, for sixteen years. Whether she leaves or stays, we can't blame her. Uncle is right. You have to tell me about this matter. I have to face reality in the end."
Mr. Mo Da and Grandma Mo looked at each other and felt better when they saw that their son was not sad about this incident.
Mo Xinyan touched his daughter's snow-white and delicate face, with a look of heartache: "I won't hate Qiu He, but it's a pity that Shan'er doesn't have me to accompany her, and there is no Qiu He to accompany her. Isn't she very lonely these years?"
Seeing her father feeling so sorry for her, Mo Lingshan smiled: "Dad, I've come here often over the years to tell you stories and chat. Sometimes I live with grandpa, and sometimes I live with grandma. I'm not lonely at all."
Mo Xinyan was stunned: "Dad, Mom, you broke up? What happened to you?"
Mr. Mo Da quickly shook his head: "It's not what you think. I have been trying to improve my cultivation over the years and reach the peak of the Xiantian realm, so I live separately from your grandmother. I'm afraid that she will be distracted and affect my cultivation."
"Yan'er, your father is a martial arts fanatic. It's better for me to separate from him so that he can focus on his training. I am here to guard your ice sculpture in Bingxin Valley."
Because his son Mo Xinyan was resurrected from the ice, the grudge between Mr. Mo and Grandma Mo melted away, and they were once again on the same front.
Mo Xinyan smiled and said, "Don't look so sad. I'm alive, everyone should be happy. I'm so hungry, mom, can you make something delicious for me?"
"Ah, the kitchen is destroyed. Let's go to the Blizzard Town ahead and find a restaurant."
Mo Xinyan had already seen Ye Feng, but because he had just woken up, he was shocked by the changes that his family had undergone over the years. It took him a while to calm down.
"This little brother is..."
"Dad, it was Brother Ye who saved you."
"My son, this Sect Master Ye is your savior. If it weren't for him, not only would you not wake up today, but your grandmother, your uncle, and Shan'er would probably all be harmed by the ice beast."
Speaking of the ice beast, Mo Xinyan's face was filled with horror. He didn't want to be frozen for another sixteen years, and he didn't want to see his relatives being frozen like himself.
"What about the ice beast? Did you kill it?"
"It was destroyed by Brother Ye."
Mr. Mo Da said with a look of relief: "The Ice Beast has been hiding in the underground ice cave for these years, and it has actually risen to a level 7 beast. If it were me and your mother, we would not be able to deal with this beast at all. Fortunately, Sect Master Ye helped."
Mo Xinyan would never have guessed that this inconspicuous young man would be his savior and destroy the terrifying ice beast.
