Chapter 117: Hang Bao Festival 3!
Feeling her tight hug, tears streamed down Zhang Ming\'s eyes "Min\'er..."
Seeing their reunion, Zhang Yuan\'s heart softened and a small smile graced his lips.
Meanwhile, Ning Xia\'s jaw dropped to the floor. "H-How is Madam alive?"
She turned to look at Zhang Yuan and saw him smiling, "Husband... how did she?"
Zhang Yuan chuckled faintly and replied "Her wish came true... that\'s all."
Zhang Fumin who was crying in Zhang Ming\'s arms, slowly retracted the hug and wiped the tears from her face with the back of her palm.
"M-Mother..."
"Min\'er..."
Zhang Fumin raised her hands cupping Zhang Ming\'s face "M-Mother... how are you here? I-Is this some kind of illusion... by Yuan\'s powers?"
"Yuan?"
She turned to look at Zhang Yuan, her eyes pleading for answers.
With a shake of his head, Zhang Yuan smiled, looking at her "No, this is not an illusion. That is your real Mother..."
Huh?
She again turned to look at Zhang Ming and she was totally confused as her words stuttered, "B-But... Mother, didn\'t Xiangli Fei kill you?"
"Even your dead body was c-cremated... but how are you here now."
Zhang Ming let out a giggle as she wiped the tears from her face and muttered "It is because you wished for it... that Little Brother made that happen."
Huh?
She looked at Zhang Yuan and asked "Yuan... what is happening, please explain to me."
Zhang Yuan smiled wryly as he didn\'t know how to explain about his presence and how he was born.
Ning Xia also glanced at him curiously "Husband... tell us how?"
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yuan spoke "Well... I am an omnipotent being who took this human form from the very essence of this cosmos."

-_-
0_0
Huh?
The three of them stared at him blankly and Zhang Yuan smiled dryly, seeing their faces "What\'s with those reactions?"
Zhang Fumin snapped out of her shock and scratched her head "O-Omnipotent being?"
Ning Xia also blinked her eyes in surprise "Husband..."
Zhang Fumin couldn\'t wrap her head around this information and asked again "Like... you are a god or something?"
Zhang Yuan rolled his eyes at her and uttered "Well, god? I am above that... I am a being with absolute authority over anything."
Zhang Fumin was taken aback and her heart raced in shock as she couldn\'t comprehend what level of power he was in.
Zhang Yuan waved his hand and a wooden bench appeared there "Shall we sit and talk?"
The three of them were dumbfounded and looked at him blankly.
With a slight frown, Zhang Fumin asked "Did... you create this with your powers, Yuan?"
Zhang Yuan walked to the bench and sat on it, before raising his head to look at the three of them "Yeah... come and sit."
Zhang Fumin took a deep breath to control her racing heart and walked to him, softly sitting beside him on the bench.
Ning Xia followed suit and Zhang Yuan pulled her, making her sit on his lap.
Zhang Ming stood there awkwardly but she also followed them and sat beside Zhang Yuan on the bench.
Smiling, Zhang Yuan turned to look at Zhang Fumin and wrapped her arm around her shoulder.
"Big Sister..."
Eh? Zhang Ming who was beside him, was stunned to hear him call Zhang FUmin as Big Sister \'E-Eh? I thought they might be lovers... they are siblings?\'
\'Wait... I am their mother? No, he might be the son of another Queen... in the Empire?\'
Zhang Fumin glanced at his golden eyes and asked in a soft voice "Yuan... i just couldn\'t understand... can you please explain it fully?"
With a nod, Zhang Yuan began to speak "Like I already said I am a being... I am everywhere.. and I can see through anything and I can do anything."
"I am omnipotent in all of these verses."
Zhang Fumin stopped him and asked "Is there anything or anyone above you?"
With a shake of his head, Zhang Yuan spoke "I alone stand above anything... even the concept of everything... I am alive before everything even started."
The three of them were bewildered to the core and their eyes trembled as they realized what Zhang Yuan actually was.
Zhang Fumin\'s jaw dropped and she asked "That\'s how you brought my mom back? With your own powers?"
"A-And my mom\'s body is quite weak..."
Zhang Yuan replied keeping his smile "Don\'t worry... I gave her a new body and she is quite powerful now."
"W-Woah..." Even Zhang Ming herself was surprised, as she didn\'t expect this.
Meanwhile, Ning Xia who was sitting on his lap was quite nervous as she didn\'t know that her Husband was an Almighty presence like this.
Zhang Fumin lowered her head as she remembered the first day she met him and how easily he killed those mobs.
Finally coming out of her shock, Zhang Fumin asked "But... if you are that powerful... what are you doing here? In this world?"
Zhang Yuan let out a faint chuckle and replied "Even though I was so powerful and could literally do anything..."
"I could not understand these human emotions... I have seen and observed humans for millennia, but still, I couldn\'t comprehend why they were crying.. laughing and how it feels to feel those emotions."
"So... I decided to become a human and began to wander around many worlds, trying to grasp this thing called emotions."
"And that\'s when... I stumbled on you Big Sister."
With a soft smile playing on his lips, he spoke "You gave me a name and taught me about these emotions..."
Zhang Fumin gasped in shock hearing his story and now thinking back, she realized everything.
At the same time, Zhang Ming and Ning Xia couldn\'t grasp the situation fully and were still confused.
Zhang Fumin closed her eyes to take another deep breath and arrange her thoughts to let the shock completely sink in.
Seeing her sighing, Zhang Yuan turned to look at Ning Xia and saw that she was thinking about something.
*smocch* He placed a kiss on her cheek making her turn to him and he asked "What are you thinking, dear?"
With a hesitant smile, she asked "I-I didn\'t know you were someone so powerful like that... uhm, y-you are still my Husband, right?"
Zhang Yuan couldn\'t help but chuckle and nodded "Yeah..."
Her gaze lowered and her words stumbled "A-Are you really okay with me being your wife? i-I am just a maid.. I am not that beautiful..."
He gently hugged her waist "What are you saying... Xia, I didn\'t love you because of your appearance."
"In my life... you are the first one to make me feel this love and make my heart flutter with your smile. I love you for that... Xia."
Ning Xia\'s eyes trembled in happiness hearing his sweet words and unknowing to her, tears filled her eyes "T-Thank you, husband..."
She plunged into his arms, hugging him tightly and Zhang Yuan hugged her back patting her head "I should be the one asking you, Xia..."
"You realize that you will be with me forever, right? I won\'t let you die... Will you not get tired of me?"
Burying her face in his chest, she hurriedly shook her head "No, husband... I will love you forever."
Zhang Yuan\'s eyes softened upon hearing this and replied with a tender smile "Thank you, Xia..."
Zhang Fumin looked at them in the corner of her eyes and smiled as she reached out pulling his cheek "No matter... what being or omni- whatever you are, you are still my little brother."
Nodding his head, Zhang Yuan replied "Of course, Big Sister."
Zhang Fumin twisted his cheek and asked in a frustrated tone "And... why didn\'t you tell me about your powers earlier, you idiot?"
Feeling his cheek being pulled, Zhang Yuan smiled dryly "I didn\'t get the chance to, and there were no opportunities to say about my powers."
Zhang Fumin let go of his cheek and directed her gaze to the lanterns flying up in the air.
"So... you can do anything you want?"
Zhang Yuan gave a nod, his hand patting Ning Xia who was still hugging him "Yeah... do you want anything in particular? I can do that for you."
With a thoughtful expression, she said "What about... making the whole sky bright with fire crackers."
As her words fell *baam* *crack* fire crackers began to blast into the sky and the sky became even more colorful along with lanterns.
Zhang Ming raised her head to look at the sky and smiled gently "Oh... they look beautiful."
Hearing her voice, Zhang Fumin stood up and went to sit beside her "Mother."
Zhang Yuan turned to Ning Xia who was on his lap and uttered "Xia... can you get down for a while... I need to go and meet someone."
Ning Xia raised her head to look at him and asked "Now, husband?"
"Yeah..."
