Chapter 409: Chapter 409 Tender Moments Above the Battlefield (2)_1

Seeing her like that, Zi Xiao felt he was just asking for punishment. He struggled to leave her lips and rested his head against her neck, breathing heavily and muttered, "You really are a seductress!"

"You’re the seductress, you’re the true calamity!" Dugu Qianye retorted. Not wanting to continue with this ambiguous topic, she left his embrace and, looking at his bewitching face, asked, "You haven’t told me why you came back when I became stronger."

Zi Xiao pulled her back into his arms and said, "You should know about Yong Xing, right?"

Dugu Qianye nodded and replied, "Yes, the current Ruler of this world."

"The Divine Temple doesn’t play much of a role, but her brother, as you know, is a General under Yong Xing. If he finds out his sister has been killed..."

Zi Xiao didn’t continue, but Dugu Qianye already understood his implication. If Lu Yuanshuang died, her brother would surely seek revenge on them, and if he was killed, Yong Xing would definitely become aware of her existence. By then, Dandan and the ancient Divine Artifact would not escape his notice. That would place her in danger!

And he, he would have to restrain them, to prevent their attention from falling onto her. But that was the Ruler! And what was his status, to be able to contend with the Ruler!

"I always knew your identity was not as simple as just a Pavilion Master of the Secret Pavilion, but I didn’t expect you to be even more remarkable than I thought," Dugu Qianye said. "Don’t worry, I will make myself strong as soon as possible."

"Little Yeye doesn’t want to let go of me, huh!" Zi Xiao held her, feeling as if he embraced the whole world. Hearing her words that sounded like a promise, his heart felt as sweet as honey.

"Who says I can’t let go of you, I’m just used to it," Dugu Qianye scolded. I’m just used to it, used to your presence, used to the little things about having you around, used to you being with me.

A ripple traveled through the air, and Zi Xiao’s eyes darkened. He stealthily waved toward that direction. Taking out a bracelet, he put it on her and said, "With this, you can find me anytime. When you miss me, just channel your Spiritual Power into it and call my name. If you face any troubles, it will protect you until I arrive."

Dugu Qianye looked down at the bracelet on her wrist, which was astonishingly crafted from rare purple spirit jade! On her fair and slender wrist, it made her skin seem even more delicate and soft.

Hearing his instructions, she knew he was about to leave and felt uneasy inside.

"I will come to find you too. Next time we meet, I’ll tell you everything," Zi Xiao said, trying to comfort her.

"Mhm." Dugu Qianye nodded gently, "I will grow stronger as fast as I can."

"I’ll wait for you," Zi Xiao said, kissing her lips and transforming his reluctance into a final tender moment. Dugu Qianye responded, her hands moving from around his waist up to his shoulders, embracing him there.

No matter how much he savored her sweetness, it seemed never enough. He truly wanted to stay with her forever. However, the repeated ripples in the air forced him to stop. Letting go of her lips, which were slightly swollen from his kisses, he pecked her cheek and commanded toward the sky, "Come out."

Two figures in black appeared and kneeled before Zi Xiao. "Master."

"I’ll have them deliver messages to you if there’s anything. Luo, Sha, meet your mistress," Zi Xiao said, pointing at the two.

Xiu Luo and Xiu Cha could not help but twitch at the corners of their mouths. When had they fallen so low as to become messengers?! Despite their thoughts, they still paid their respects to Dugu Qianye, for if they did not, Zi Xiao would surely throw them into the snowy mountain’s ice springs for a two-year soak upon their return!

Dugu Qianye glanced at Xiu Luo and Xiu Cha, nodded in greeting, and said to Zi Xiao, "I understand."

Zi Xiao waved his hand for the two to leave, which left Xiu Luo and Xiu Cha deeply frustrated. It seemed they had been summoned not for their counsel, but merely to show their faces. Were they not the chiefs of the Luo Sha Army anymore? Since when had their status plummeted this much!

"Alright, I’m leaving. Do you have any messages for me?" Zi Xiao asked.

"What message? Don’t go flirting around after you leave, or else never come back!" Dugu Qianye threatened, and then took the initiative to kiss him on the lips, called Xiaohuo out, and leapt onto its back.

Zi Xiao had not expected Dugu Qianye to kiss him voluntarily. Watching the white silhouette on the colorful phoenix’s back, he flew over and kissed her lips fiercely, saying, "I will stay chaste for you, but you need to grow up quickly."

Dugu Qianye glared at him but nodded anyway. Zi Xiao patted her head, returned to Ci Hun’s back, and said, "Let’s go."

At the command, Ci Hun flew forward and soon vanished from sight. Dugu Qianye stayed on Xiaohuo’s back, watching them leave until they were no longer visible, then she commanded Xiaohuo to descend.

By the time they descended, the battle below was nearly over. Most of the Divine Temple and the Ouyang Family members had been disposed of, the only remaining few formidable ones were making a last stand. But they ultimately stood no chance against the combined forces of the Mo Family and the Dugu Clan, and they were all slain in the end.

"Bang!"

The white figure crashed heavily to the ground. Dugu Qianye looked over to find Lu Yuanshuang thrown to the ground by Dugu Yixuan, a sword thrust backward through her chest, as her blood slowly oozed out of her mouth.

"Why... Why are you so ruthless towards me?" Lu Yuanshuang looked at Dugu Yixuan with a tear falling from her eyes. Gazing at the man she loved, the very man who was about to kill her, she was full of unwillingness! She had both looks and strength, why couldn’t he fancy her, yet set his heart on a lowly woman of little power?!

"Because I don’t love you!" Dugu Yixuan replied coldly.

"Haha, haha... I love you, yet you treat me this way! Take my life, destroy my Divine Temple, Dugu Yixuan, I hate you! I hate you! Cough cough..." Lu Yuanshuang said agitatedly, her breathing unsteady, causing her to cough violently, "When I die, don’t you think you can live in peace. Brother, avenge me!"

With her final words, Lu Yuanshuang closed her eyes. Thus, one Hidden World Family and a power that had dominated the Yuling Continent for many years disappeared from the Continent forever...

Dugu Qianye looked at the ground, rendered into a battlefield riddled with scars, where the Vine Emperor merrily consumed the bodies of the Divine Temple and the Ouyang Clan members. She then glanced toward the direction in which Zi Xiao had departed, eyes narrowed lightly. The sunlight draped over her, suddenly causing her figure to appear blurred.

It was as if she found herself back in that lifeless world again. But this time, she noticed that the river didn’t just carry along floatsoms; it now teemed with small fish and shrimp-like creatures. She wanted to walk over for a closer look, but she was pulled back out.

This visitation was brief, so brief that she questioned whether she had truly been there, or if it had merely been an illusion.
