Chapter 361: Chapter 361: The Wheels of Feng Shui Turn (1)_1
Feeling Dugu Qianye’s tension, Dugu Yunheng and the others also stopped talking. They just watched her break the formation, their breaths becoming tense as well.
Dugu Qianye set aside the Array Stone she had taken out and then continued with the next step. Over ten hours later, she finally broke through the entire grand array.
"Ding."
When Dugu Qianye removed the last Array Stone, the formation emitted a crisp sound, and the light that had been shining steadily finally dimmed.
"Dad, you can come out now," Dugu Qianye said, sounding somewhat depleted.
Dugu Yixuan, still wiping the sweat from his brow, stepped out, came over to her, and embraced her in his arms.
"You’ve worked hard, my child."
Dugu Qianye initially felt a bit awkward, but hearing him say "my child" made her accept his identity as her father instantly. Dugu Yixuan hugged Dugu Qianye for a while before letting her go, approaching Dugu Yunheng and Phoenix Third Sister, and said with a bow, "Grandfather, Grandmother, I’ve caused you trouble."
Dugu Yunheng patted Dugu Yixuan’s shoulder, feeling his boniness and said with heartache, "It’s good that you’re out!"
Dugu Qianye withdrew her Domain, then collected all the Array Stones, and said to them, "Let’s go back first."
This indeed was not a good place for reminiscing. After they had left, Dugu Qianye asked Jiang Yu to set up an Illusion Array here again, making everything look as if nothing had changed. After ensuring that the Spiritual Beasts wouldn’t find out and go snitch, they then rode on Xiaohuo and left the Flame Abyss.
Above the oasis, Xie Bing paced back and forth, glancing in the direction of the Flame Abyss from time to time. When Dugu Qianye and the others appeared, she couldn’t help but fly over at once, going straight to Xiaohuo’s back.
From afar, Dugu Yixuan saw his mother flying over. Before he could speak, Xie Bing embraced him and burst into tears.
"Mom, I’m back!" Dugu Yixuan said as he wiped her tears.
"Good, good, you’re finally back." Even though Dugu Yixuan was now over a hundred years old, in her eyes, he was still her little son.
"Alright, let’s discuss everything else when we get back," said Dugu Yunheng, looking at the emotional Xie Bing.
Hao Pengyou and Zi Xiao also noticed them, and after Dugu Qianye brought them along, they flew towards the Dugu Clan.
On the way, Xie Bing kept looking at Dugu Yixuan; seeing his emaciated appearance, tears flowed from her eyes again. Dugu Qianye saw this and said, "Grandma, Dad looks like this only because his Spiritual Power was severely depleted over the years. He’ll recover after resting for a while."
"Yes, I know. You’ve worked hard, Qianye," Xie Bing said, looking at Dugu Qianye with satisfaction.
Xiaohuo flew for two or three days before bringing them back to the Dugu Clan. After returning, Dugu Yixuan naturally stayed in his own courtyard. After Dugu Qianye had carefully checked him and felt relieved that there was truly nothing wrong with him—aside from severe depletion and no other issues.
After the check-up, Dugu Qianye said to Dugu Yunheng and the others, "Dad’s body is fine. I’ll prescribe him some tonic treatments for some time and he should recover soon."
Hearing that there was nothing wrong with Dugu Yixuan, the four elders finally felt relieved. The news of Dugu Yixuan being rescued had reached Dugu Qianye’s four uncles who rushed over. Seeing him, they excitedly crowded around him. Especially Dugu Yilan seemed overjoyed. Dugu Qianye noticed the sparkle at the corner of his eye, which must have been tears of happiness.
Dugu Yilan, caught by Dugu Qianye’s gaze and feeling a bit embarrassed, suddenly remembered something. He took out a red invitation from his Space Ring and handed it to Dugu Qianye.
"What’s this?" Dugu Qianye took it, opened it, and saw it was an invitation.
"This is an invitation sent by Black and White Impermanence on behalf of the Divine Temple," Dugu Yilan explained. "It’s for you to visit the main hall of the Divine Temple, which the temple issued to the Alchemist Guild."
An invitation from the Divine Temple?
Dugu Qianye unfolded it and indeed, it was from the Divine Temple, inviting Baili Xie, the first-place winner of the alchemist competition. The contents roughly indicated that the Divine Master of the temple had heard about her performance in the alchemy competition and hoped to invite her as a guest. Since her whereabouts were unknown, they could only send the invitation to the Alchemist Guild; if she was willing, she could simply bring the invitation to the main hall.
Dugu Qianye looked at the invitation in her hands and secretly rejoiced. She had been thinking about entering the temple to further investigate where her mother was suppressed, and now the invitation arrived!
"I understand, thank you Uncle Three," Dugu Qianye put the invitation away.
"When do you plan to go?" asked Dugu Yilan.
Dugu Qianye glanced at Dugu Yixuan, who was surrounded by everyone in the middle, and said, "There’s no rush for now. I’ll wait until I’ve nursed Father back to health before talking about it. Keeping them waiting a while may make them value it more."
Dugu Yilan nodded and said, "That sounds good."
"Please let my master and the others know, just say that I can’t be found for the time being, but I will visit the Divine Temple when I am able," Dugu Qianye requested, as it wasn’t possible to go now, but she also didn’t want the temple people to think she wouldn’t go at all.
"Okay," said Dugu Yilan.
Everyone stayed in Dugu Yixuan’s courtyard until late, leaving only when they saw that Dugu Yixuan was getting tired. Since Dugu Qianye and the others lived in side rooms, Dugu Yixuan’s room was vacant and had always been kept clean, so he moved right in.
At that moment, Dugu Yixuan was sitting in the main hall, looking at the two people below.
"Hao Pengyou, as Qianye’s senior brother, I thank you for taking care of her all this time," Dugu Yixuan said to the Dugu Qianye below.
"Hehe, Uncle, you’re too kind. In fact, it’s the junior sister who has been taking care of me all along, hehe," Hao Pengyou hurriedly replied upon hearing Dugu Yixuan’s words.
Dugu Yixuan chuckled, then turned his gaze to Zi Xiao and carefully scrutinized him before saying, "Zi Xiao, I hear you’re Qianye’s fiancé?"
"Yes, Uncle," Zi Xiao replied, looking at Dugu Yixuan with composure.
"Without the consent of the parents, it can’t be considered valid," Dugu Yixuan said.
"Uncle, I wasn’t the one who said it," Zi Xiao responded, seeming quite innocent.
"Hm?" Dugu Yixuan looked at Zi Xiao with slightly narrowed eyes, "What do you mean?"
"At the time, Little Yeye herself said she would take responsibility for me," Zi Xiao claimed as if he were the wronged party, prompting Hao Pengyou to barely suppress his laughter.
"Why?" Dugu Yixuan didn’t believe his daughter would say such a thing.
"Because she slept with me, then said she would take responsibility," Zi Xiao replied calmly.
"Pfft—"
Hao Pengyou spat out all the tea in his mouth, staring at Zi Xiao in disbelief. Such a boss response! And to his future father-in-law, no less. Domineering, truly domineering!
