# Chapter 868: Xiao Yun's Son (Part 2)

Xiao Yun and Tianxia Diqi carried the child before Xiao Lie: "Grandfather, please give this child a name."

Xiao Lie reached out, touching the baby's small hand, but did not pick him up... afraid that he might inadvertently disturb this little life that had just escaped from its nightmare. Holding back his tears, he spoke slowly: "Back then, I named your father Xiao Ying, hoping that he would soar through the heavens like an eagle and dominate all directions. But I never expected that he would leave this world at such a young age."

"After all the ups and downs of this half a lifetime, all the vicissitudes of these decades, I have finally seen and understood many things. This child... I do not seek any achievements or fame for him when he grows up. I only pray that he lives a life of peace and safety, free from disasters and calamities. I shall name him... Yong'an."

"Yong'an..." Xiao Yun murmured softly, then nodded with immense force: "Good, let it be Yong'an."

"Child, did you hear that? Your name is Xiao Yong'an." Tianxia Diqi held the baby tightly in her arms. Though she had stopped crying, her tears still could not be stopped.

"Xiao Yong'an, a good name." Yun Qinghong said with a smile: "As they say, after a great disaster comes great fortune. Yong'an encountered calamity the moment he was born, yet he stubbornly pulled through. From now on, his fortune will surely be boundless."

"Yes, he truly is tenacious." Yun Che nodded approvingly: "The demonic energy that invaded his body was more than I anticipated. While purifying it, my greatest worry was that he wouldn't be able to hold on until the energy was fully cleansed. But he was remarkable... three hours, a full hour longer than I had estimated, yet he stubbornly endured it all."

This was a heartfelt praise, and it came from none other than Yun Che. Xiao Yun's eyes brimmed with tears of excitement, while Tianxia Diqi's tear-streaked face bore a look of deep pride. She held the child close, unwilling to loosen her grip for even a single breath.

"HAHAHAHA!" Tianxia Xiongtu laughed heartily: "Earlier, I was scared out of my wits by Xuanyuan Wentian, and the thought of him still makes my heart tremble. But... if even a newborn child can defeat his power, what reason do I have to fear him! If he dares to come again, I will stake my life to make sure he never returns!"

"Hahaha, well said, Brother Tianxia!" Yun Qinghong also burst into laughter: "Yong'an has set a remarkable example for us. What is there to fear from Xuanyuan Wentian! Brother Tianxia, stay here today, and let our two families drink heartily. We can discuss preparations for battle tomorrow!"

"Good!" Tianxia Xiongtu agreed readily.

Xiao Yong'an's survival after calamity swept away the gloom that had shrouded the Yun family, replaced by a fervent, almost boiling atmosphere of joy. Even the heavy shadow left by Xuanyuan Wentian seemed to have dissipated into thin air.

And as the foremost of the Twelve Guardian Clans, the change in the Yun family's mood subtly dispelled much of the gloom hanging over the entire Demon Emperor City.

However, after the initial fervor subsided, when calm returned, they still had to face the immense fear of Xuanyuan Wentian... the destruction that could descend at any moment. Xiao Yaohou soared into the air and disappeared into the distance. As her figure vanished from Yun Che's sight, a whisper reached his ears: "When you return to Demon Emperor Palace, you are permitted to bring your Empress wife and Xue'er along."

Yun Che: "..."
