Cheers to the Jin family

"Mom and Dad, I am now a Cultivator!!!"

Wu Jin Fei said aloud, then after he told, everyone there was even more shocked, even his father froze and the parents who were listening were also just stiffly silent to hear it.

Like a bolt of lightning in the cold silence, the sound of Wu Jin Fei's statement left everyone there speechless, their hearts racing as they looked at Wu Jin Fei who was also speechless with happiness at the sight of his entire family.

How could they not? For the Wu tribe, becoming a cultivator was just a dream or wishful thinking.

Uncle Jin Hao, Wu Jin Fei's father, who was sitting with his wife and daughter on the terrace of their house, could not contain his joy, Uncle Jin Hao immediately rose to his feet with both hands supporting him.

With a tearful face and a wide smile, he stepped forward cautiously, his voice trembling as he asked, "What you say is true, Jin Fei?" After getting a definite nod from her son, he immediately hugged Jin Fei tightly, tears of happiness falling down his cheeks.

His mother, Jin Yue, immediately joined in, crying and laughing at the same time, hugging her son as if she didn't want to let go anymore, the atmosphere around them became even more emotional, with his sister and other branches of the family coming to congratulate him, sharing the same happiness.

The village that was originally filled with a sense of tension mixed with curiosity now turned into a sea of joy, uncles and aunts cheered, patting Wu Jin Fei and his family on the back, while the twins Bei Zhang and Bei Zheng were confused by this commotion.

Families gathered on the main street of the village celebrated, congratulating each other vigorously, amidst all the happiness, it was clear that Wu Jin Fei's arrival as a cultivator was not only a personal achievement, but also a new hope for the entire Wu tribe.

Under the scorching sun, the village that climbed up to the mountain of the Wu tribe bore witness to the great joy that pervaded the hearts of everyone there.

The atmosphere was festive and lively, in stark contrast to where they were living now.

A gentle breeze blew them all warmly, shaking the souls and wooden instruments hanging on the main street.

Everyone reacquainted themselves with each other and reminisced together.

Like a child who has successfully migrated is now returning home with many achievements.

"Hahaha my son, my son, how did you become a cultivator? Come tell us all."

In response to his father's question Jin Fei kept quiet while scratching his head in nervousness, he turned his head towards Wang Jun.

Because of his son's gesture uncle Jin Hao immediately realized, "Ohh is it true?..., thank you for helping our son, thank you very much" said uncle Jin Hao movedly while nodding his head many times.

His wife followed suit, wisely thanking him profusely, as big as they imagined, perhaps even bigger than this mountain.

Wu Liang and the rest of the family also gazed at Wang Jun with an extremely happy and moved look of reciprocation.

Once again, being a cultivator in the Wu tribe's village was just an empty fantasy, like the wind that always touched them but could not be touched back.

Then came Huang Xie Auntie, Shang Luo Auntie, Ao Mei Auntie, and Shan Yu, carrying bread, honey, and cold milk on beautiful wooden trays.

"Now this is what I've been waiting for, come on Wang Jun, enjoy this welcome, although it does feel primitive compared to the city, but this is its own uniqueness" Jin Fei then took a loaf of bread and split it and gave it to Wang Jun who had been silent.

"Come try it young man, our bread may be different from the bread in your town, but it is still delicious" Grandpa Ming Qi assured Wang Jun who looked hesitant to accept it, then out of curiosity and his friend's encouragement Wang Jun tasted the bread.

The crunchy taste of the crust, the soft taste of the inside, was truly delicious.

"This is delicious."

Wang Jun ate it openly and heartily, as did Jin Fei who had also just finished his share.

"You should try our cow's milk, although we don't have an ice cultivator, we do have a snow cave."

The two wooden glasses filled with cold milk were drunk by both of them with mouth-watering gulps, every drop of the cold milk moistening their esophagus thoroughly.

"Let's break out the chants." As soon as Ao Qi's uncle said out loud, all the men including his father Jin Hao, Wu Liang and Ao Nan, all chanted a short song for Jin Fei's arrival to the Wu tribe's village.

On the way home, step back,

Wu Jin Fei, come here,

Our village longs, your gallant heart,

Come home, oh hero, to us all.

Wu Jin Fei, Wu Jin Fei,

Come home, oh our pride,

Here is love, here is brother,

Back, back, we celebrate this day.

Mountain breezes welcome, in a village full of laughter,

Under the blue sky, with us all,

Bring back hope, and new stories,

Today the village shines, because you came home.

Wu Jin Fei, Wu Jin Fei,

Come home, oh our pride,

Here is love, here is brother,

Back, back, we celebrate today.

We welcome thee, with open hearts,

Wu Jin Fei, Wu Jin Fei, welcome back.

At the same time, the rest of the aunts returned to the crowd and threw a basket of flowers and sowed festively here and there, showering the whole crowd with colorful forest and mountain flowers.

Right and left, front and back, all of them were united with a tight inner bond, without any physical or status barriers.

Wang Jun also suddenly felt the same, his heart trembling gently, the warmth of this family also knocking on the door of his heart.

Slowly but surely, he began to follow the flow of this small festive feast.

In the center of the crowd, Wu Liang and Ao Nan embraced together while singing their verses to Jin Fei, "It's really great.... How will it be if I'm greeted like this?", Wu Liang interrupted the lyrics.

"You can only dream, are you sure you can be like big brother Jin Fei? Leave and come back as a cultivator? If you can then I will be your slave for life."

"Hahaha are you kidding me? Alright, when I grow up I will leave to pay my debt to the village and return as a cultivator"

"Agreed."

"Are you serious? Did you forget the previous agreement? The loser is labeled as a liar, right? Hahaha"

"Hey hey, I'm serious, I don't intend to lie either, even if you become a cultivator that means you're more noble than me but we're still one family"

Everyone enjoyed this small party truly and happily, the short tension before was replaced by a day's worth of happiness.

"Hahaha all of you, thank you very much..., first introduce him, this is Wang Jun my friend so far, without him I wouldn't be able to come here"

"Ohh your name is Wang Jun it turns out, thank you for accompanying my son all this time, thank you benefactor, how can we Jin Fei's parents repay you" Uncle Jin Hao embraced Jin Fei tightly but it didn't have much impact because Jin Fei's own body was getting stronger because he had become a cultivator.

"It's no big deal, helping others is a good and natural thing"

"Oh humble young man, thank you very much, we are very grateful"

Uncle Jin Hao shook hands intimately with Wang Jun, repeatedly swinging their handshake and wanting to hug him.

"Hohoho is really a great family, will I be replaced? Thank you ancestors for giving me a good opportunity until today" Ming Qi grandfather thought as he looked at Jin Hao's family who were reveling and getting to know each other with Wang Jun.

Grandpa Ming Qi looked at Wu Liang once and saw him talking to Ao Nan who was also listening to this happy atmosphere.

Jin Fei suddenly kneels before his parents gallantly, but is about to be restrained by both of them.

"Father and mother, I am your son, Wu Jin Fei, the successor of the Wu Jin family, please bless me with your prayers, without you I would not be able to come to this today, I beg you one last time..."

Jin Fei's teardrops broke the happy atmosphere into a touching sadness.

Obviously Jin Yue's aunt held her mouth and cried.

"Jin Fei what are you talking about? Are you feeling low? Don't be so my son, you are our pride, seeing you back is enough for us, especially with this unimaginable special gift, we are already very happy Jin Fei... O my son just stand up my son, don't kneel down as if you are low and despised, you are a cultivator who is higher than us, how can we all stand up while you kneel on the dirty ground"

Jin Fei's father held back tears of happiness and emotion as he tried to make his son stand up again.

"I am indeed a disobedient son, I went away for a long time as if I never thought of you all, I..."

"It's okay son, it's okay, we will always look up to you and pray for you."

Jin Fei sobbed into the fabric of his father's clothes, soaking everything that clung to his face.

Jin Yue's mother tried to hug him and calm him down, as did Jin Qing.

All of them gazed at this small family with their hearts stroked with nostalgic memories of their respective families.

Jin Fei brushed away his tears and wiped his nose, helped by his father who also used his cloth.

"Come on my son, never mind that, let's go back home, we are waiting for you for now, at home there is much available for you, young man, come with us too, let's eat together inside, everyone, thank you for this."

As soon as Uncle Jin Hao got up with Jin Fei, the Jin family walked back home to the tune of their poem.

Like newlyweds who are accompanied by lyric-less instruments as they return to their home.

"Wang Jun, are you going to stay there, come to my house, let's eat together"
