Songcheng Dong Family, the capital of the Pine Flower Country. The reception hall was decorated elegantly, but it was not luxurious at all. It was obvious that the owner's cultivation was very high. At this moment, three people were sitting in the hall, sipping tea and chatting. One of them, a middle-aged man, had an anxious expression on his face.

”Li Xun, why hasn't Na Na and the others arrived yet? Could something have happened?” At this moment, he was extremely anxious. Originally, he was worried about his daughter killing the sword spirit without a swordmaster to lead her, but there were only three days left before the competition. Yet, Dong Nana's group of four had yet to arrive.

”Uncle Dong, I believe they have the talent.” Li Xun replied.

”What a great saying, 'A wise man has his own destiny'. ”That's right, I'm disturbing myself.” Dong Bo Tong had roamed the business world for many years and had seen many storms. However, his eldest daughter was the flesh and blood in his heart. As the saying went, care was the only thing that mattered. After all, Dong Bo Tong wasn't an ordinary person. After hearing Li Xun's words, he calmed down.

”Father. Father. I'm back.”

Dong Bo Tong spat out the mouthful of tea that had just entered his mouth when he heard Dong Nana's cheerful and familiar cry. Li Xun and Qin Qing, who were by his side, couldn't help but snicker.

”Hehe, sorry for making the two of you laugh. Please excuse me.” Even though Dong Bo Tong felt a little awkward, he was inwardly overjoyed.

”Uncle Dong, you don't have to say that. This is your true nature. We are all happy for Nana to have a father like you.” Li Xun was really envious of Dong Bo Tong's concern for Dong Nana.

When Dong Nana rushed into the main hall, she could not help but gape at the happy conversation between Dong Botong and Li Xun and Qin Qing.

”Father, you're too concentrated on joking with your senior brothers and sisters. Have you forgotten about me?”

”Seems like I've almost forgotten about it. Your two Senior Brothers and Senior Sister are much more sensible than you. I feel that they have become twenty years younger by chatting with them.” Even though Dong Bo Tong said that, his eyes became moist and he opened his arms. He had not been able to eat and sleep soundly these past few days, so how could he not be excited when he saw Dong Nana?

Father, wuu.” Dong Nana could not control her emotions and threw herself into her father's embrace. She had always known that although she had two younger brothers, her father loved her the most. His own mother and Dong Botong had a very good relationship. Unfortunately, her health was not very good and she left early. However, her father's love for her never made her feel lonely, let alone wronged at home.

Looking at the father and daughter pair crying in each other's arms, Li Xun and Qin Qing felt a burst of envy. When Cheng Kun and the other two people saw this, they had no choice but to walk up to Li Xun and Qin Qing and greet them. They didn't want to disturb their father and daughter reunion.

When the staff finally arrived, Dong Bo Tong ordered some people to prepare a feast. Everyone was in a good mood so at this moment, they had to drink a few cups. But, other than Dong Bo Tong and Cheng Kun, the rest of them were not strong enough, so they left after eating half of the liquor. This was because they found out that Dong Bo Tong and Cheng Kun were wine buckets. Dong Bo Tong and Cheng Kun had a pleasant conversation. Although Cheng Kun didn't like to take the initiative to talk, but with Dong Bo Tong around, the wine still drank one cup after another down his throat.

Actually, Dong Bo Tong was extremely shrewd. Dong Na Na Na's unintentional words to protect Cheng Kun made him pay attention to Cheng Kun. Because he could tell that his daughter seemed to be interested in this little rascal. He knew that his daughter was used to being pampered. Since when had she paid attention to a man, let alone speaking on his behalf? Now that he had a clue, he naturally had to interrogate her properly.

Dong Bo Tong gradually realized that although Cheng Kun didn't like to talk, he was honest on the surface and did not lack exquisite thoughts. He had seen countless people in his life and knew that Cheng Kun was not a sinister villain. However, it seemed like it wasn't time for him and his daughter to make things clear yet. Furthermore, in terms of family background, Tianshan's family was the perfect match for the Dong Clan, and his own daughter's marriage could be considered a grievance. However, Dong Bo Tong was still very open-minded. He had told his daughter many times that she would be the one to choose her future husband. There was only one condition to make her happy. Otherwise, with the Dong Clan's financial situation and Dong Nana's talent and looks, the people who came to propose to Dong Nana could all line up into a long line. However, until now, no one had arranged a marriage for Dong Nana.

After two days of rest, Dong Nana and the other three, who had already gotten used to the dust from their travel, decided to head over to meet up with the person in charge of receiving the guests from the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect.

”You're finally here.” The Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect had already contacted Li Xun before Dong Nana and the other three had returned. Therefore, they were not too anxious.
