Douluo: A Century-old Legend I Am the Second Uncle Chenxin

Xue Churan's eyes flashed with color, and she said excitedly: "Sister Chuxin, I never thought that my aunt would give you a magical herb!"

Xue Chuxin replied as gently as ever: "Yes, the King of Ming has agreed, and our two families are now on the rise in relations, so it doesn't matter whether Auntie gives the immortal grass or not."

Xue Churan continued, "Well, then your aunt is very good to you."

"Come to think of it, now that I think about it carefully, Brother Yu and my aunt do look a bit alike."

"Especially the silver-white hair, which is exactly the same as Brother Yu's."

"When I was young, I was wondering what happened to Brother Yu's silver hair. It turns out he inherited it from my aunt."

What she said was absolutely right. As mentioned before, Chen Yu looked 70% similar to Chen Xin later in life.

However, Chen Zixiu's hair is black, and so are Chen Xun, Chen Jianjun, and Chen Xiaojun.

But Chen Zhang and Chen Feng, their hair is silver-white.

This is rare in Douluo Continent. It has nothing to do with age. How many Titled Douluo have silver hair?

And then there is Chen Xin who returned to his ancestral home across generations.

Xue Chuxin smiled gently and said softly: "The ninth-grade precious medicine that your aunt gave you is really precious. In comparison, she is sincere to you."

Xue Churan's face was filled with unconcealable joy. She responded with a little pride and shyness, "Well, I feel a little embarrassed by your generosity, aunt. I feel like I don't deserve it."

"It's worth millions, and money can't buy it."

Xue Chuxin gently patted the back of her hand and said softly, "Then you should come to see your aunt more often and chat with her. Didn't Lingyun hint at that?"

Xue Churan was stunned for a moment, then blurted out: "What about you? Aren't you coming too?"

After hearing this, Xue Chuxin was silent for a moment, and her eyes became a little complicated, as if she had a thousand words to say but didn't know where to start.

Xue Churan felt uneasy when she saw this. She asked tentatively, "Is it because Xia Qingyun didn't come today that you didn't go?"

Xue Chuxin's eyes dimmed slightly, and she lowered her head, with a barely perceptible sadness: "Back then, Qingyun was really good to me."

"At that time, the three of us traveled around the continent together. She was like my own sister, always protecting me and shielding me from the wind and rain."

Xue Churan nodded gently and said with emotion: "Yes, after all, she was the number one goddess back then!"

"She is the first goddess of your generation to achieve the title of Douluo."

"Her demeanor once swept the entire era and became a legend in the hearts of countless people."

Xue Chuxin heard this and a bitter smile appeared on her lips: "Yes, it's popular among a generation."

"But, in the end, I still feel sorry for her and Brother Yu. This is always a hurdle in my heart."

Xue Churan sighed and said comfortingly, "Who can tell clearly about matters of the heart?"

"And those old stubborn people in the royal family, if they hadn't interfered, you would have been the one who married Brother Yu."

"Not to mention that later on, when Xia Qingyun was lying in ambush at Chen's house, she rushed to rescue Brother Yu and they got married in the end."

Xue Chuxin shook her head and whispered, "Don't say it. After all, we can't choose our own origin and destiny."

"We inherit the grace of the royal family and enjoy the royal family's resources and protection, but we have to pay a price. This is an unavoidable responsibility."

Xue Churan curled her lips in dissatisfaction when she heard this: "Ah, bah, if you want to say it, you should have said it earlier. You didn't allow her to marry outside, but you came out to stop her at the last minute. What kind of thing is this?"

"Isn't it just being a snob? It's because you saw the Chen family in trouble. It's really speechless."

Xue Chuxin remained silent, just sat there quietly, as if lost in thought.

Seeing this, Xue Churan continued, "And this time, they had already reached an agreement with Poseidon Island, but they didn't even say hello to you. I wonder what price they sold you for."

"And Ming Wang, why doesn't she come out and say a word?"

Xue Chuxin heard this and sighed softly: "Don't say it, my aunt also has her difficulties."

"Back then, when she gave me the Vast Sea Universe Cover, she also put in a lot of effort."

"These are not things we can just ask about casually."

Xue Churan curled her lips when she heard this: "It was originally given to you, to the lineage of the Emerald Swan."

"They just look at us as a remote branch and don't take us seriously."

"But fortunately, the high priest is your aunt, so you didn't suffer any loss."

"Otherwise, if it were someone else, hmm, I don't know what they would do to you."

At this point, Xue Churan suddenly changed the subject: "You are going to be promoted to a Titled Douluo this time, let's see what they say then."

"They couldn't have imagined that your aunt would give you a magical herb, right? This is a huge surprise!"

Xue Chuxin smiled slightly when she heard this: "I should really thank my aunt."

Xue Churan nodded and said, "I think Auntie treats Xia Qingyun better than you do. Xia Qingyun didn't come today, she must be a little disappointed, right?"

Xue Chuxin's expression changed slightly when she heard this, but she immediately regained her composure and said, "Don't talk about this kind of thing."

"After all, Qingyun is the mistress of the Chen family."

Xue Churan felt nervous when she heard this, and she was eager to defend Xue Chuxin: "Back then, didn't you also..."

However, before he could finish his words, Xue Chuxin interrupted him harshly: "Shut up!"

Xue Churan was stunned for a moment, she stared blankly at Xue Chuxin.

In their decades of sisterhood, this was the first time Xue Chuxin had lost her composure like this, which caught her off guard.

After a while, she finally responded and whispered, "I understand."

Xue Churan looked at Xue Chuxin's rare serious expression, and her heart couldn't help but ripple.

Whenever Xia Qingyun was mentioned about this, Xue Chuxin's emotions always became extremely complicated.

So she gently held Xue Chuxin's hand, trying to give her some comfort.

"Sister Chu Xin, I know you have always felt guilty towards Xia Qingyun. But what happened in the past has already happened, and we can't change it."

Xue Chuxin felt the warmth in her hands, and was touched. "Churan, thank you. I know I have always been lucky to have a sister like you by my side."

Xue Churan's eyes revealed a trace of worry, and she asked softly and cautiously: "But, Sister Chuxin, about that matter, are you really not going to tell Brother Yu?"

"As one of the parties involved, he has the right to know the truth of the matter. No matter what the result is, at least he should understand it."

Upon hearing this, Xue Chuxin slowly lowered her head. Her eyes became deep and complicated, as if she was recalling the dusty past.

Her fingers gently stroked the corner of her clothes. The silence was like a huge rock, pressing on her heart and making it difficult for her to speak.

When Xue Churan saw this, she couldn't help but feel anxious.

So, she continued, “I think Brother Yu has the right to know the truth about this matter.”

"He is not your responsibility alone, but everyone's common concern."

"Besides, Xia Qingyun already knew about it, otherwise she wouldn't have chosen to leave the Chen family for more than ten years."

"This matter has always been like a thorn in her heart, and in your heart."

Xue Chuxin heard this and sighed softly, low and helpless: "It's been so long, what else can I say."

"That thing has already happened and it cannot be changed."

"Besides, it's because Qingyun left the Chen family that I can't say anything."

"Back then, Qingyun was braver than me. He gave up the power of the Xia family and withstood the pressure from the sect."

"Now, I don't want to open those scars again and cause everyone more pain."

"Qingyun has endured too much suffering."

"Besides, Brother Yu... maybe he doesn't need to know the truth of this matter."

When she said this, Xue Chuxin's voice became choked, and tears sparkled in her eyes.
