The Legend of Dragon and Phoenix of Douluo

"Father sealed my age in order to temporarily seal my talents when I was born."

"This way I won't delay my cultivation because I become a mortal, thus wasting the best cultivation time."

"In fact, my body will grow, just like ordinary people, grow up, age, and die."

"After sealing my bloodline, my father and mother took me to the human world. They also established their own cultivation levels and became ordinary people."

"In this way, we became an ordinary family of three. My father farmed, my mother collected mulberries and weaved, and I was a crying baby in swaddling clothes."

Yunze spoke slowly, falling into that memory himself, with a slight smile on his lips.

He told Gu Yuena about his life as a mortal, from toddler to babbling.

From losing his front teeth while running when he was three years old, to climbing a tree to dig out bird's nests when he was seven years old, to almost drowning while swimming in a river when he was eleven years old.

When he was young, he lived a happy and carefree life. His family was not rich, but it was extremely warm.

My father was relatively strict, but only verbally. Even when he made mistakes, he only educated others verbally and persuaded others with reason, and never beat himself.

His mother was very gentle and cared for her in every possible way. When she was sick, she stayed up all night to take care of her, even forgetting to eat or sleep.

That time, after I learned that I almost drowned while swimming, I cried all night, and my eyes were swollen the next day.

My father loves my mother very much. Every time before cooking, he will ask my mother what she wants to eat, and then my mother will ask her what she wants to eat.

When cooking, my mother would light the fire and chop the vegetables by herself, while my father would be responsible for the cooking. The three of them cooperated, and there was constant laughter in the kitchen.

When he was studying in the academy, he was the naughtiest one and the smartest one, and his grades were always first.

He studies well, but he doesn't like studying and often skips classes to go to the martial arts gym next door to learn martial arts.

In the end, he simply gave up studying and went directly to the martial arts school as an apprentice. After practicing martial arts for only one year, he defeated the master of the martial arts gym.

"After defeating the master of the martial arts gym, I felt that there was no point in staying any longer, so I left the martial arts gym and went to join the army."

Yunze continued to tell that although it had been a long time since he became a mortal, he still remembered it deeply.

Remember everything you have experienced and be able to talk about it fluently, as if you have said it many times.

In fact, he didn't say it many times, it was just that the impression was too deep.

Gu Yuena sat on the stool, supporting her chin with her hands, listening carefully and finding it very interesting.

After joining the army, he achieved great military exploits due to his martial arts skills, and within a few years he became a general commanding 50,000 soldiers.

At that time, he was only twenty years old. Five years later, he had repeatedly made military exploits and became Wu Yunhou, commanding an army of 300,000 people.

"When I was granted the title of Marquis, the then emperor also betrothed the thirteenth princess to me." At this point, Yunze's expression became a little complicated.

Gu Yuena's heart tightened, the smile on her face stopped suddenly, her expression became a little stiff, and she said cautiously: "You agree?"

Yunze glanced at Gu Yuena and nodded: "I agreed. My parents had urged me to get married and have children many times at that time."

"I don't hate the Thirteenth Princess very much, so I agreed and got married to her."

"Oh..." Gu Yuena's mood suddenly became low. She lowered her head and twisted her fingers together, feeling a little sad.

Seeing Gu Yuena like this, Yunze knew why she was like this, but he didn't say anything and continued to tell the story.

In the second year after getting married, he had a child, a girl named Yunxi.

After learning that Yunze was married and had children, Gu Yuena felt very depressed, her nose was sore, she felt aggrieved and sad.

Yunze knew that Gu Yuena didn't listen much anymore, so he skipped a lot of experiences.

"I lost my mother when I was forty, my father in December of the same year, and my wife also died of illness when I was forty-four."

"My daughter also died at the hands of others due to the turmoil in the country. She left one step before me. She was only twenty years old at the time."

"After my parents, wife, and daughter died, I became alone. After the previous home was destroyed due to turmoil, I did not rebuild it, or even went back."

"Maybe it's because there are so many things in the army, or maybe it's because I'm worried that I'll be sad after seeing things and missing people when I go back. Anyway, I've been staying in the army since then."

"It wasn't until I resigned at the age of sixty-three that I returned home, to the home where I grew up and played as a child, where my parents, wife, and daughter are buried."

"After that, I planted vegetables, weeded, and visited their graves every day. I lived a very leisurely life."

"You must have been in pain and loneliness at that time," Gu Yuena whispered, with tears in her eyes.

The tears may be because he learned that Yunze was married, or he may be heartbroken because of his tragic experiences.

Yunze nodded, his mood fluctuated, and he sighed:

"I must have felt painful and lonely at first. Every time I visited their graves, I would cry."

"But as time went by, my pain and loneliness diminished until I could laugh and talk to them at their graves."

"I have already let go of their deaths and can face them calmly."

"A person's secluded life lasted for thirty-seven years. On my 100th birthday, I died and ended my mortal life."

"When I died, my vision went dark and my consciousness became blurry. When it became clear again, it was already the Phoenix Palace in the fairy world."

"I became the same as I was when I was a baby, as if I was reborn with memories."

"At that time, I really thought I was reborn with memories, but later, after my parents' explanation, I figured out that I was not reborn, but ended a dream."

"Is this a dream?" Gu Yuena suddenly became energetic.

Yunze shook his head and nodded again, which made Gu Yuena feel particularly uneasy, and asked anxiously: "Is this a dream?"

"You can say it's a dream, or you can say it's not. The reason why I say this is because these things really happened."

"I have truly spent a hundred years in the mortal world, a happy childhood with my parents, a passionate middle-aged life, and a tragic old age when I lost my father, my mother, my wife and my daughter."

"These are all true. Later, I went to the mortal world to have a look and saw the thatched cottage and the tombstone," Yunze said.

Gu Yuena had just raised her hopes, but now she was disappointed again, and she curled her lips in grievance: "Then why do you say it's a dream again?"

Yunze smiled bitterly: "Because the moment I ended my hundred-year life in the world, I was no longer the same person in the world."

"He is the young patriarch of the Immortal Phoenix Clan in the Immortal Realm. He is a baby who has been given high hopes by his parents and needs to practice hard since childhood."

"The previous hundred years were just a beautiful dream to me. When I woke up from the dream, it was over."

"Can you really think that it was a dream?" Gu Yuena asked softly, feeling sad for Yunze.

"You have to be able even if you can't." There was a hint of helplessness in Yunze's words.

"My parents took me to the mortal world because they wanted me to have a relaxed childhood that an ordinary person should have, and to enjoy father's and mother's love."

"During this period, they won't ask me for anything in particular. As long as I'm happy, I can do whatever I want, even if I just idle around all day."

"But once this mortal life is over, they will have strict demands on me, which can even be said to be harsh."

"It's so cruel that even when I'm about to die, they won't come to save me. They will only bury me afterwards and help me take revenge."

"Ah" Gu Yuena covered her red lips with her hands. She didn't expect Yunze's parents to be so strict, even cold-blooded.

"The fairyland that countless cultivators yearn for and regard it as paradise is not a peaceful place."

"This place is full of battles. Even those who are as powerful as the Immortal Phoenix Clan may face an existential crisis."

"If I don't practice hard, how will I protect my people and myself in the future?"

"My parents are harsh to me because they hope that I can truly grow up and become the immortal phoenix that can dominate the fairy world without relying on their protection," Yunze said slowly.

"Just like what they said to me, after a hundred years in the mortal world, they have changed from my parents to my teachers in cultivation, and they will always urge me to become stronger."

"Until I am stronger than them, then their identities will become my parents again."

He understood his parents' hard work and didn't blame them. After all, without their strict requirements, he might not have achieved the achievements he had in the past.

After Yunze finished telling his story in the mortal world, neither of them spoke again, and the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat silent.

After a long silence, Gu Yuena asked: "Has your wife and daughter been resurrected?"

After the short period of time just now, Yunze has calmed down and regained his previous calmness. He calmly shook his head:

"No, as I said, it was a dream to me. When I wake up, it is over."

"The fate between me and them has been severed. There is no need to force this fate to continue. It is best to let everything be in the past."

Hearing this answer, Gu Yuena was actually a little happy, and her mood improved a lot. Originally, she had prepared for the worst, but now it seems that she is quite lucky.

"Sister, I'm not cursing you or anything, don't be offended, don't be offended," Gu Yuena apologized in her heart.

Realizing that what she just thought was like saying that the other person died well, she quickly apologized. This was not her intention.
