Xiao Aotian dragged his seriously injured body and slowly walked to the bedside, recalling Xiao Ruoshui's care for him in his mind. What happened today, Xiao Ruoshui did not tell his parents truthfully. Every time I am always in need, the person who appears by my side is my sister.

Xiao Aotian silently clenched his fists, secretly vowing to become stronger. When he was bullied for the first time, Xiao Ruoshui stood by his side, and then taught others a hard lesson, the second time, Xiao Ruoshui also came forward, and the third time, his sister came forward, and he couldn't do anything himself.

Xiao Aotian, who had no mana value, found that he was really a waste, and he was useless except to escape. If there is anything in case for my sister in the future, then what ability does he have to protect my sister. Originally, I thought that I couldn't become a magician without magic, I couldn't feel the magic element, and I could become a swordsman with my own efforts.

Heaven treats him unfairly!

Xiao Aotian really wanted to scold loudly, he was tired of such days, listening to others laughing at him every day, looking at the sneering eyes of those people every day, he was really fed up, he wanted to become strong and found that he couldn't do anything.

I remember that once he also had an argument with his classmates, and his nose was swollen and swollen from being beaten, and when he came back, his sister saw and asked, and silently shed tears to treat him with medicine.

In order not to make his sister cry, Xiao Aotian's injuries in the future were always dealt with silently by himself. But in his sleep, he always felt that someone was quietly treating him, and later he knew that it was his sister Xiao Ruoshui. Even if he didn't say it, his sister still found out, and in the end, Xiao Aotian restrained his temper and stopped arguing with others, which is why he can run fast, he doesn't want his sister to find out that he is injured, and would rather become a runaway.

Now he is fifteen years old, not an ignorant teenager, and knows how to take care of his sister and younger brother. As the second son in the family, he can't even protect his younger brother, on the contrary, his younger brother protects his elder brother. Xiao Aotian found that he was really a failure, and his life was a failure.

"Why can't I comprehend the magical elements between heaven and earth, and why can't I practice swordsmanship?"

Xiao Aotian asked himself countless times, but no one explained it clearly, and his father couldn't understand this matter. However, his father never forced him to do anything, but he loved him more, even his mother, which made Xiao Aotian feel very uncomfortable in his heart, and a sense of powerlessness arose.

Xiao Feng understands his son's mood and knows his son's father, he takes the trouble to comfort Xiao Aotian, just hoping that he can live a happier life. Xiao Aotian understands his father's hard work, but he has never been able to pass the hurdle in his heart, he is optimistic on the surface, but he is actually very depressed. Except for the warmth of the world that he could feel at home, everywhere else looked cold, and this kind of life was until Xiao Aotian's eighteenth birthday.

"Xiaotian today is your birthday, and it is also the day you graduate from the academy, come back early in the evening, I will ask your mother to prepare more dishes you like to eat, and our father and son will have a good drink." ”

Xiao Feng always remembered Xiao Aotian's birthday, and would prepare a birthday party for him every year. No matter where Xiao Feng goes, or if there is something important, he will come back on this day to celebrate his son's birthday, of course, this is not his alone.

"Xiaotian is still young, how can you let him drink with you!" Mother Hong Yan looked at her old man angrily, she was very opposed to Xiao Aotian's drinking, looked at her son kindly, and said gently: "What do you want to eat, mother will prepare it for you!"

"Mom, whatever you cook is the best!"

Xiao Aotian's words made Hong Yan very useful, and she looked at her old man proudly, which was simply a naked show-off. Xiao Ruoshui and Xiao Qian also laughed when they saw their mother's smug smile, Xiao Feng couldn't cry or laugh, and the picture of a harmonious and happy family made Xiao Aotian also show a bright smile.

"You've really decided to tell Xiaotian?"

"It's time to tell him, after all, that's what he asked, isn't it?"

"But I'm afraid that Xiaotian won't be able to accept it, if there is anything in case, then what can I do!"

"I must tell him about this anyway, or I will be entrusted with it!"

When the three of their sisters and brothers went to the academy, Xiao Feng and Hong Yan spoke quietly, even if there was no one, they still didn't dare to say it loudly. Hong Yan thought of it, and she was still a little worried, she really didn't want to make it public. But her worries, Xiao Feng ignored it, still stood up and walked to a corner wall in the southwest, stretched out his right hand to draw a circle, purple aura surrounded him, and put his hand on the wall, and then, a quaint box appeared in the wall, and directly took it out and put it into his storage ring.

Xiao Aotian successfully graduated from Elander Academy, but he did not get a certificate of recognition as a swordsman, only a graduation certificate. If it was a magic class, Xiao Aotian would not be able to graduate at all, and it would be difficult to graduate without reaching a certain level.

When he came out of the academy and received his graduation certificate, he felt as if he had seen the sun, and his heart was very happy, without the swordsman's recognition certificate was not important to him at all, the important thing was that he could finally leave this cold place.

"Mom, I'm back, where is Dad?"

"Xiaotian is back, your dad went out for a while and came back, come and try the turkey leg that mom gave you!"

Hong Yan saw that her son was back, and hurriedly served a plate of turkey legs, Xiao Aotian grabbed the chicken legs and gnawed them unceremoniously, watching her son eat with a mouth full of oil and a face full of happiness. But when she thought of what was going to happen next, she faintly revealed a sense of worry, and her eyes moistened unconsciously.

"Mom, why are you crying?"

"My son has graduated and grown up, and my mother is happy!"

Hong Yan quickly wiped her tears, she looked at Xiao Aotian's eyes more kindly, full of maternal love made Xiao Aotian embarrassed, Hong Yan saw that he was embarrassed, touched his head again, smiled and said Let him eat first, and then went into the kitchen to continue cooking.

Then, Xiao Qian also came back, Xiao Qian is the youngest brother in the family, and the family loves him very much. Xiao Aotian directly pulled his younger brother to eat together, and after eating, Xiao Aotian began to check his younger brother's homework.

"Brother, what do you think?"

"Yes, there is progress!"

Since Xiao Qian entered the academy, Xiao Feng has never taken care of his youngest son, on the contrary, Xiao Qian's courses are all managed by Xiao Aotian, sometimes even Xiao Ruoshui's courses are Xiao Aotian, his magic theory has reached the point of Xiao Feng, even Xiao Feng himself is surprised, he can't feel the magic element, but he can analyze the trajectory of the magic element and how to use it to exert the greatest power, this specialty is only known to the family, no one else knows, Xiao Aotian has never been revealed.

In the evening, Xiao Feng and Xiao Ruoshui returned home at the same time, and the family was happy.

At twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Xiao Aotian greeted his eighteen-year-old! Xiao Feng was really relieved to see the family get together, and then at the three of their sisters and brothers. Then Xiao Feng allowed Xiao Feng to drink, and Xiao Ruoshui also drank a little with him, Xiao Qian could only watch with his eyes.

Xiao Feng was very happy, and finally someone at home had two drinks with him. Xiao Ruoshui and Xiao Qian respectively gave the gifts they had prepared to Xiao Aotian, and Xiao Aotian happily accepted them. Since they were still students, they didn't have extra money to buy valuables, but Xiao Aotian accepted this intention.

Xiao Ruoshui's little face is a little ruddy because of the effect of alcohol, she is a person who does not drink alcohol, and she is not allowed to drink at home. Because she was happy, she drank a few more glasses, and her mother Hong Yan helped her to bed, and Xiao Qian went upstairs to sleep not long after because he had to continue classes tomorrow.

"Xiaotian, you are an adult, and you will be an adult from today onwards!"

Xiao Feng looked at Xiao Aotian with a gratifying face, for eighteen years, he watched his son grow up day by day, and now he looks more handsome than himself, his handsome face is a little immature, he knows that one day his son will mature, and sighed: "No matter when, you are always my son!"

"Dad, have you drunk too much?"

"Xiaotian, this is your gift!"

Xiao Feng took out a short sword forged from high-grade fine iron, this gift he had bought this afternoon, and he also injected his own thunder magic into it, making this sword not only have the sharpness of a sword, but also have powerful thunder magic.

"Thank you, Dad!" Xiao Aotian played with this short sword, and carefully looked at the word 'Tian' on it, which was definitely engraved by the carver, Xiao Feng told him how to use this sword, and cherished the sword very much.

"It's another gift for you!"

Xiao Feng took out another gift, which was a box with a simple shape, and glanced at it with some puzzlement. No matter how hard he tried, the box just couldn't be opened, which made Xiao Aotian a little puzzled.

"This box was left by a good friend of mine, and it has been kept with me for more than ten years, and I have not taken it out until today. ”

Xiao Feng asked Xiao Aotian to prick his finger and squeeze out a drop of blood, and under Xiao Aotian's shocked gaze, the box opened, and there was nothing in it except for a pair of rings. But Xiao Aotian's face was a little unnatural, and when he saw the pair of rings, he was in a bad mood.

"Actually, this box was left to you by your father, and it is also a gift for you as an adult at the age of eighteen. Xiao Feng said eloquently, "Back then, your father came to me with you in his infancy and asked me to raise you to adulthood, and he didn't give this to you until you were eighteen years old." ”

"Dad...... What do you say...... Aren't you my father?" Xiao Aotian stammered as he replied, he really didn't want to believe that this was true, but when he saw his father's eyes, he knew that this thing was true, and then looked at his mother, and saw that her eyes were a little moist, and what she wanted to say was stuck in her throat.

"Your father's name is Long Cheng, and your original name should be 'Long Aotian'. I wanted you to take your father's surname Dragon, but your father asked me to let you take my surname. I still remember when Aaron came when it was raining heavily, and he appeared in front of my door covered in blood, all wet, but there was no rain on you. ”

Xiao Feng recalled the picture when he saw his friends again, "Ah Long is seriously injured and there is no way to treat it, he didn't say who your mother was, he didn't say why he was injured, and where was your mother, he only said that the child was taken care of by us." ”

Xiao Aotian clenched his fists tightly, his palms were full of sweat, he bit his lips tightly, and was silent.

It was raining heavily outside, and four-year-old Xiao Ruoshui appeared beside him, and his happy appearance shocked him. He jerked his head up, and was greeted by his young parents, who had no other children at home. Suddenly, Xiao Aotian understood that this was the memory of his parents eighteen years ago, and they used magic to preserve this memory, just to let Xiao Aotian see his biological father and let him understand his father's distress and helplessness.

"Mom, there's a knock on the door outside!"

Four-year-old Xiao Ruoshui was like an angel, happy like an elf, when he heard a knock at the door. Xiao Ruoshui shouted loudly, her mother Hong Yan came out of the kitchen, she also followed behind her mother, and when Hong Yan opened the door, she saw a man covered in blood.

"Who are you?"

Hong Yan saw that the man who was covered in blood and didn't know appeared at the door of her house, and hurriedly protected her daughter behind her, with a burst of blue aura on her body, and even her expression became vigilant. The magical aura that erupted at that moment even Xiao Aotian was a little shocked, this was definitely a magic power at the level of a magic master.

Xiao Aotian smiled bitterly, and he also followed his mother's gaze to the comer. Suddenly, Xiao Aotian was dumbfounded, his eighteen-year-old appearance was simply a copy of the person in front of him, except that his eyes were blue and his eyes were black, basically the outline was not the slightest different.

"You're sister-in-law?"

Hong Yan is a water magister, and the power she releases is not very strong but not weak, and she is maintaining a defensive posture, and she is the 'water prison' in her hand, wanting to firmly control the person in front of her. Unexpectedly, her magic power was useless in front of him, and he directly broke through the 'water prison' to his eyes, and he also made up his own secrets.

"Aaron, why are you here?"

Hong Yan's aura that burst out in an instant alarmed Xiao Feng in the study, and he quickly appeared in front of the door, just seeing the appearance of the person who came, and hearing what he said, he was very surprised. When Aaron entered the house, he finally saw that he was wearing a huge waterproof robe, which was taken off to reveal that his body was covered with scars, some of which had rotted, and his face still did not change.

"Aaron, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Feng saw that Long Cheng's injury was so serious, but he didn't go to heal it, but came to himself, which surprised him, and hurriedly asked his wife to go for treatment, but was stopped by Long Cheng, he still knew about his injury, and he didn't want to waste too much time.

"Ah Feng, I have something to ask you!"

Xiao Feng saw Long Cheng's very serious tone, he knew that it was not a good thing. Because they are confidants and friends who have been friends for many years, they have a lifelong relationship, and they basically call themselves 'crazy' when they open their mouths, where would they call themselves so seriously, it is more like a kind of entrustment, which makes his mood a little heavy.

"This is my only son, I will hand him over to you!" Xiao Aotian, who was still in infancy, was held in her arms by the four-year-old Xiao Ruoshui at this time, she was very happy when she saw this child at first sight, and she was reluctant to put it down, and Long Cheng did not refuse to let her hold it.

"Why? Where is the child's mother? What's the matter with your injury?"

Xiao Feng was in a hurry, he really wanted to drag Long Cheng to ask what was going on, why he was so seriously injured, why there was only the child, where did the child's mother go, he had too many questions that he didn't understand, but Long Cheng didn't say anything.

"I don't have much time to explain so much to you, I'll leave this kid to you! You are my only friend, and I can only ask you for this trust. ”

Xiao Feng saw that Long Cheng never opened his mouth to answer his question, he nodded helplessly and agreed, Long Cheng saw that he promised to take care of his son on his behalf, and then said: "'Aotian' was obtained by his mother, and this is the gift we left for our children. If he inherits my constitution, then you give him this gift when he is eighteen years old. ”

Xiao Feng's moist eyes nodded heavily, since Long Cheng opened his mouth to ask him to help take care of the child, with his understanding of Long Cheng, if he hadn't encountered a tricky situation, he would definitely not have made such a decision. Seeing his former friend encounter a problem, but he can't do anything about it, this makes Xiao Feng very uncomfortable.

"Crazy, you should have a bar!" Long Cheng looked at his friend who he hadn't seen for many years, he was really glad to have met Xiao Feng, otherwise he really didn't know what to do. Now that his concerns have been arranged, handing over the child to Xiao Feng, Long Cheng can rest assured.

"I'll get it right away!"

Xiao Feng hurriedly went to get the wine, and Hong Yan didn't stop him.

"Sister-in-law, I came in a hurry and I don't have any gifts for the child!" Long Cheng took out a pair of blue bracelets from his arms and said with a smile: "This is not a valuable gift, just treat it as a thing for the child to play with, I hope my sister-in-law will not mind." ”

"'The Goddess's Refuge'?"

Hong Yan is a water magician, she felt the clear water magic elements coming from this pair ring, and then looked at the subtle lines on it, and was shocked, this gift is really heavy. After all, this item is only available in the water mage family, and it is simply the item that water mages dream of. By wearing it, you can not only feel the water element more clearly, but also form a protective barrier in times of crisis.

Hong Yan saw the injuries on Long Cheng's body, she knew that this item Long Cheng needed even more, and she might be able to save his life. So Hong Yan was incompetent and couldn't ask for it, Xiao Feng, who happened to come back with wine, saw it, and he could see at a glance what this bracelet was, and he resolutely couldn't ask for it.

"This pair of rings was left by Aotian's mother, and it is not of much use to put it next to me, so it should be regarded as a meeting gift for the child!"

Long Cheng looked at this pair of rings as if he saw his wife, no matter what kind of danger he never used, he always treasured it, he wanted to give it to his son, but when he saw the four-year-old Xiao Ruoshui like an angel, he liked it very much and finally decided to give it to Xiao Ruoshui. In addition, he also saw that Xiao Ruoshui's physique should be a water-based magic physique, and this pair of rings was just right for her.

Xiao Feng didn't want to live or die, Long Cheng was also anxious, and in the end he directly said that this was for his future daughter-in-law. Because the two of them had an agreement to form a family of children and daughters, this is also very natural. It's easy to say it, and let Xiao Feng accept it toughly, but Xiao Feng is unwilling to be killed. In desperation, Long Cheng could only forcibly put the bracelet on Xiao Ruoshui's hand, and said: "This bracelet has some restrictions, otherwise Ruoshui's physique will not be able to withstand the huge water elemental power, and as her strength grows in the future, this restriction will be slowly lifted." ”

The matter has come to this point, Xiao Feng and Hong Yan reluctantly accept it!

"Are you really leaving?"

"There are things that must be understood! If I don't come back, then I am dead!"

Long Cheng poured a full bottle of wine, touched Xiao Feng, and then drank it all, he knew that he was leaving, and if he stayed, he would be in trouble. took a deep look at Xiao Aotian, who was still a child, and finally Long Cheng didn't say anything and left with reluctant eyes.

Xiao Aotian clearly saw that there were tears in Long Cheng's eyes at that moment, but he still left without saying anything, he could only say that he really had something to do. From Long Cheng's hateful gaze, Xiao Aotian guessed that this matter should have something to do with his mother.

"You are my son at all times!"

Xiao Feng's tears flowed out again, even if in the past eighteen years, recalling the resolute and lonely back of Longcheng that day, he still couldn't let go, he had done his best to take care of Xiao Aotian all these years, and he had already regarded it as his own, without any difference.

When he finished saying this, Xiao Feng left with Hong Yan and returned to his room. Because they want to give Xiao Aotian space to think for himself, so that he can understand that even if he is not his own son, he is definitely biological in their eyes.

At this time, Xiao Aotian's eyes were a little red, tears couldn't stop flowing, his mind was full of the picture he had just seen, he was not qualified to comment on his biological father, even if he was left alone, he was really unacceptable.

Only now did he understand why he had no magic power and could not condense magical elements in his body. From the memories he just had, he guessed that his mother was definitely a water magician, and her identity was definitely not ordinary. But he didn't inherit his mother's magical physique, but inherited his father's physique, and I really don't know what kind of physique it is.

Now at this moment, his mind is a little confused, the cold eyes he has suffered, the grievances he has suffered, the ridicule he has suffered, these negative emotions have all come up, the whole person is a little confused, he doesn't know what to do, and he doesn't know what to do next. was originally a happy and harmonious family, and the reason why he was special in this family was also because he was not biological, but an adopted child.

He was the only one in the huge house, and the quiet sound outside the window made him very lonely. Xiao Aotian cried, and the entire spiritual world collapsed directly, only bitter tears dripped down his cheeks.
