Chapter 191: Chapter 191: Sudden Increase in Strength(2)_1

The two of them and the beast looked at each other and smiled, forming the Trouble-Making Alliance, complicating Master Zi Xiao’s pursuit of his wife with many more obstacles.

Master Zi Xiao arrived at Dugu Qianye’s room, seeing a crowd of distressed people enveloped in a cloud of sorrow.

"Master Zi Xiao."

Master Zi Xiao looked at Mo Chi and the others, and said with a smile, "Qianye and I are friends, and I’m the junior here, so please, just call me Zi Xiao."

"Alright then," Mo Chi said without any fuss, "thank you for saving Qianye today."

"I didn’t do much, I just brought her here," Zi Xiao replied. "How is she doing now?"

When Weng Yuzi had arrived, so had Qie Yue and the others. He saw that Mo Chi and everyone were there, so he went out to find Qie Yue to get updated. Hence, Zi Xiao wasn’t clear about Dugu Qianye’s situation. Mo Chi repeated Weng Yuzi’s words to him.

Zi Xiao knew that Dugu Qianye had a considerable amount of Phantom Power within her, but he had not expected it to be this serious. He looked at Dugu Qianye, still in distress on the bed, and his expression darkened.

In the days that followed, everyone took turns caring for Dugu Qianye. Even after Weng Yuzi later concocted some more Elixirs for her, they were still ineffective, and her condition remained dire.

The altar was also destroyed in the great battle, where Yellowstone Fiends, who had been consumed by Jiang Yu as a tonic, were no more. With the Yellowstone Fiend gone, the people of the Phantom Sea no longer worshipped the Divine Master, were no longer constrained by the Divine Temple, and began to lead the life they wanted.

The people trapped on Wuyou Island, as well as the survivors from the four great Empires, managed to return to the Continent with the assistance of the Secret Pavilion. Thanks to the battle, the Sea Phantom Beasts had come to know about them, so there were no obstructions from Phantom Beasts along the way, and everyone smoothly returned to Pearl City.

Due to the particular identities of Cang Jin and Lin Feng, as princes and a marquess from their Empires and the outstanding figures of the new generation, they had some clout in their countries. The fact that they had been saved by Dugu Qianye led to gratitude from Cangqiong Empire and Glei Empire towards Mors Empire, somewhat easing the direct relations between the nations.

The students from Mors Empire were initially reluctant to leave, as Dugu Qianye’s condition was unknown, and they didn’t wish to depart. However, they were ordered to leave by Xie Ping, with the exception of Mo Ziqing and Mo Feng, and the rest departed together.

In the room, Little Baiqiu lay curled up beside Dugu Qianye, motionless, when it suddenly began to whimper. Xiaohuo thought it had woken up and approached to check, only to find its eyes still closed. Dugu Qianye, lying beside it, followed with her own pained moans.

"Sister, sister, what’s wrong?" Xiaohuo shouted, alarming those outside who rushed in hurriedly.

"What happened? What’s wrong with the girl?"

"I don’t know what’s going on, but sister is in a lot of pain right now," Xiaohuo said.

Weng Yuzi approached and said, "Let me take a look."

He sat beside the bed, laid his hand on Dugu Qianye’s wrist, and carefully felt it out.

"How is she?" Mo Chi asked.

After examining further, Weng Yuzi said, "The Phantom Power inside her is uncontrolled."

"What?!"

"Is there a way to help her control it?" Mo Zhenting inquired.

"No, she can only rely on herself to get through this," Weng Yuzi said, shaking his head.

At this moment, Dugu Qianye’s situation could be described with one phrase: in dire straits!

In order to stimulate Little Baiqiu’s potential, she had stirred up such a scene. As a result, Little Baiqiu indeed erupted, but because it was too small and didn’t know how to control itself, it uncontrollably absorbed too much Phantom Power. And since it didn’t know how to cultivate, a lot of that Phantom Power directly transferred into her body. If it hadn’t been for Dandan absorbing most of the Phantom Power for her, she would have already died from her body exploding.

To avoid being burst by Phantom Power, Dugu Qianye forcibly shut off all communication with the outside world, turned all her consciousness inward for introspection, and concentrated all her energy on dissolving the Phantom Power. It was very dangerous under those circumstances, but she had no other choice and had to take the risk.

Originally, as Dandan spat out a bit, she refined a bit, and waking up would just be a matter of time if she continued to refine it slowly. However, Little Baiqiu suddenly lost control of the Phantom Power within its body, allowing the Phantom Power to enter Dugu Qianye’s body. The original balance was disrupted, and the Phantom Power began to rampage throughout her body, even the portion that Dandan had absorbed was starting to behave uncontrollably.

The Phantom Power burst her meridians, causing her body to swell up, and her skin became like paper, to the point that the Phantom Power roaming beneath her skin was visible.

"What do we do? What do we do?" Xiaohuo watched Dugu Qianye’s condition and was so anxious he was close to crying, but nobody had a solution, and they could only anxiously pace around in the room.

Dugu Qianye watched the out-of-control Phantom Power. The pain of her shattered meridians stimulated her nerves, and every part of her body felt as though it had been crushed by a heavy weight. If things continued this way, she reckoned she would truly be done for.

No, at this rate, she might have to rush to be reincarnated once again. Dugu Qianye gritted her teeth and turned her spiritual power into nets, interweaving them to intercept all the Phantom Power, then channeling it along the meridians toward her Dantian, finally depositing it beside Dandan. Because the Phantom Power was too wild, the seemingly simple process exhausted all her strength.

After organizing one strand of Phantom Power, Dugu Qianye started on the others. She repeated the process over and over, not knowing how long it took, until she had organized all the Phantom Power. But because she was too exhausted, Dugu Qianye fell into a deep sleep.

"Sis, sis seems better!" Tonight, Mo Feng was on duty, and when he came in to wipe Dugu Qianye’s face, he found her swelling had subsided and her body was no longer burning hot.

"Family Head, Headmaster, sis seems to have recovered!" Mo Feng went outside and shouted loudly. Soon everyone arrived at Dugu Qianye’s room.

Master Zi Xiao was the first to arrive. Seeing Dugu Qianye’s condition, the worry in his eyes slowly dissipated. Mo Zhenting and Qiongli quickly followed, and seeing Dugu Qianye was no longer swollen, they knew she had overcome the ordeal.

"It’s finally over," Mo Chi said.

"But why isn’t my sister waking up?" Xiaohuo asked.

Weng Yuzi examined Dugu Qianye and said, "There’s no problem now, as far as I can see, she has absorbed the Phantom Power in her body."

No sooner had Weng Yuzi finished speaking than Dugu Qianye’s body suddenly emitted the light of advancement, its dazzling white light forcing everyone to back away.

"Is this an advancement?"

"It should be."

As the Phantom Emperor’s constellation appeared beside Dugu Qianye, Mo Zhenting and Qiongli only then realized Dugu Qianye’s level, and both were surprised.

"I wonder how many levels Qianye will advance this time?" Old Mo Three said with a chuckle.

Everyone’s mood lifted. Now that Dugu Qianye’s critical period had passed, and she was even advancing, it was like Weng Yuzi said—if she could turn the corner, it would be a huge stroke of luck.
