Chapter 134: Chapter 134 Hidden Crisis (1)_1
As the master of Jiang Yu, Dugu Qianye could now come and go as she pleased in the illusion she had created. Thinking about how long she had been here, and that Xiaohuo and the others had lost contact with her, she must be worried. She said to Dandan, "I must go out now. I’ll work hard in my training so you can come out early."
Dandan awkwardly looked away from Dugu Qianye, and with a thought, disappeared.
"Dandan, wait for me," Dugu Qianye silently said to herself, then she flashed out of the Phantom Realm.
In the room, Xie Ping was lying on his special lounge chair, his eyes half-closed as he pondered something unknown. Mo Ziqing sat on a stool, occasionally glancing at Dugu Qianye. Xiaohuo, holding Xiaojiu, sat next to Dugu Qianye, looking at her face, which was constantly changing expressions, with concern.
"Ah, sister is awake!" Xiaohuo suddenly exclaimed.
Not knowing how long she had been gone, when consciousness returned to her own body, Dugu Qianye finally felt the sensation of standing on solid ground again.
"Sister, sister."
Before Dugu Qianye even opened her eyes, she heard Xiaohuo’s calling.
"Is Qianye really awake?" Mo Ziqing came up to Dugu Qianye, asking uncertainly.
"She’s awake, definitely awake. I can even sense the connection between myself and sister now," Xiaohuo confirmed.
Dugu Qianye slowly opened her eyes, and what entered her sight were four pairs of anxious eyes.
"Sister, you’re finally awake. Woo, Xiaohuo was so scared." Seeing Dugu Qianye truly awaken, Xiaohuo immediately threw herself into her arms. Although she had been certain that Dugu Qianye was awake a moment ago, only now, seeing her open her eyes, did her heart truly settle.
"Hmm," Dugu Qianye moved her somewhat stiff body and asked, "How long has passed now?"
"It’s been one day and one night," Mo Ziqing answered.
"One day and one night..." Dugu Qianye murmured. She had not expected that after experiencing nearly twenty years of her past life, only one day and one night had passed here.
"Sister, what happened to you? You were crying one moment and laughing the next. I couldn’t even contact you. When I knew you used the Golden Fire, I was so worried. Did you get into a fight with someone?"
Upon hearing Xiaohuo’s question, Dugu Qianye remembered what she had experienced in the Phantom Realm. All her past events, although she could now avoid them, she had never forgotten; they had always been lodged deep in her memory. The longing for her parents from her former life, the hatred for Dugu Qianlan and her boyfriend, the guilt towards the smoke-like past, all of it had always been in her heart.
And what had unearthed all that was the stone now on her ear. She reached up to touch her right ear; Jiang Yu was worn there.
"Eh? When did sister get an extra earring? It wasn’t there just now." Xiaohuo followed Dugu Qianye’s hand to look, and asked in surprise.
Dugu Qianye picked up Xiaohuo and explained to everyone, "Since last night, I’ve been trapped in the Phantom Realm Heart."
"Phantom Realm Heart? Are you truly trapped in a phantom realm?" Mo Ziqing asked.
"Yes," Dugu Qianye nodded and said, "It’s all because of Jiang Yu. This spiritual mist is something he created out of boredom while he was on the Xuanyue Continent."
In ancient times, the subordinates led by the Creator God split into two factions, one represented by XX, embodying righteousness, and the other known for their ruthless actions, represented by XX. When the Creator God was still alive, she managed to keep the two sides in a relatively peaceful coexistence. But shortly after her death, the factions erupted into a cataclysmic war. This war lasted for hundreds of years, and in the end, due to the cunning and deceit of faction XX, many people and divine beasts from the other faction perished. The survivors, unable to resist, were forced to live in hiding.
Because the war was so vast, it damaged the very foundation of the world, causing the ancient aura to decline day by day, ultimately shaping the world as it is now. Many civilizations from the ancient period also fell into decline.
Jiang Yu was a phantom stone formed during the era of the Creator God, but it gave birth to two lives, himself and Jiang Yu. Since they were born of the same essence, they were inseparable. Over millions of years, Jiang Yu spent most of his time in slumber, only occasionally awake. Meanwhile, Jiang Yu loved to wander through various worlds, setting up obstacles and fooling others for amusement. The Spiritual Mist Zone is something he left behind on the Xuanyue Continent. Within the mist, he could easily draw someone’s consciousness into the Phantom Realm Heart.
Dugu Qianye formed a contract with Jiang Yu, which allowed her to learn some details about these matters. She didn’t mention what she experienced in the phantom realm, but simply talked about Jiang Yu to them and then let Xie Ping and Mo Ziqing go back to rest.
"The possessor of the Divine Fire, so young?"
After Xie Ping and Mo Ziqing left, Jiang Yu came out and saw Xiaohuo’s face still flushed from recently crying, looking rather surprised.
"So what if I’m small, I can still burn you to a crisp. Look at you, all flash and no substance!" Xiaohuo didn’t know what Jiang Yu meant by Divine Fire, but felt he was mocking him, so he threatened out loud and even released some Golden Fire.
"Er, I didn’t say anything." Jiang Yu felt dejected. The two things he feared the most were both with Dugu Qianye, which made him wonder how he was supposed to live on from here!
"What’s this about Divine Fire that you mentioned? Xiaohuo only knows his flames are Phoenix Golden Flame, so why call it Divine Fire?" Dugu Qianye asked.
Jiang Yu found a stool for himself to sit on and said, "Well, her fire isn’t really considered true Divine Fire. The true Divine Fire is the flame of the ancient Divine Beast Vermilion Bird. The Vermilion Bird once used its flames to scorch the darkness of the world, which is why it’s revered as the Sacred Fire, also known as Divine Fire, because it’s the progenitor of all flames. However, Xiaohuo merely possesses a trace of Vermilion Bird bloodline, so he isn’t truly a descendant of the Vermilion Bird, which is why the Phoenix Golden Flame isn’t Divine Fire. But the Golden Phoenix is indeed the creature with a bloodline closest to the Vermilion Bird in this world, so perhaps there is a chance for evolution into a Vermilion Bird in the future. Then, the Golden Fire might indeed be worthy of the name Divine Fire."
Having said a lot in one breath, Jiang Yu poured himself a cup of tea. Seeing Dugu Qianye eager to ask more, he hastily added, "Don’t ask any more, okay? Even if you do, I won’t tell. Some things are not meant to be said now."
Dugu Qianye and Xiaohuo gave Jiang Yu a dejected look, which greatly pleased him. He stretched out his right hand, talking to himself, "If only my hand could heal, perhaps I could remember something."
Damn it, isn’t that an outright threat?!
"Is that so? Since sister caused your right hand to be injured, should I also do something to your left hand to make it symmetrical?" Xiaohuo asked with a sweet smile.
Joking apart, she was a little tyrant and was not about to let him threaten her. She might be small, but she knew well enough that some things come when they will, not when one wishes.
"Uh." Jiang Yu replied with a wry smile, "I think it might be better if I go back into my original form to heal."
Without waiting for a response from the two, he quickly returned to Dugu Qianye’s ear.
Afterwards, Dugu Qianye went to the Refining Demon Pot once again. Her recent ordeal must have caused great worry inside, so she went in to reassure everyone that she was safe.
