Chapter 424: Chapter 424 Ni Yun (4)_1

Dugu Qianye looked at the Black Blade King Bee and asked, "Do you really wish to form a contract with me?"

"Yes, I am willing. I and my people are all willing to follow you," Dada said from Xiaohuo’s shoulder, nervously flapping its wings.

After Xiaohuo had released his own pressure on them, it knew that escape was impossible today. It was preparing for a desperate fight when it heard Xiaohuo offering them an opportunity, which was to acknowledge Dugu Qianye as their master. Initially, it was unwilling, but Xiaohuo explained many benefits, including the existence of the Refining Demon Pot. Lastly, Xiaohuo threatened that since they knew about the Refining Demon Pot, if they refused to acknowledge a master, for the sake of secrecy, they would have no choice but to kill them all, which was a matter of a single fire. Under such intense coercion and temptation, it had no choice but to board Xiaohuo’s pirate ship.

"Then, alright," Dugu Qianye nodded, extending her palm, and Dada flew onto her hand to let her form the contract.

Dada’s rank was not high, having just reached the Super Divine Beast level, while the other Black Blades were almost all of Divine Level. After Dugu Qianye had tamed it, she directly formed a contract with it. Then she went underneath the beehive and collected the Black Blades and the beehive together into the Refining Demon Pot, entrusting Dudu to arrange them.

Turning back to see Bei Tong wearing a surprised look, she smiled and said, "They say there isn’t much honey now, we’ll bring the honey and stingers back for you later."

Bei Tong looked at Dugu Qianye and then at Xiaohuo and said, "Qianye, you are still as formidable as ever!"

"Of course, my Keke has always been formidable!" Little Baiqiu said proudly, as if Bei Tong’s compliment was directed at it. Dugu Qianye found it amusing and laughed as she flicked Little Baiqiu’s small head, then turned to Bei Tong and said, "Tongtong, do you have any other business here?"

"No," Bei Tong shook her head.

"Then let’s go back," Dugu Qianye suggested.

"Okay."

Just as they were preparing to leave, Lan Mei suddenly knelt down on one knee, supporting the ground with one hand and clutching her chest with the other, exclaiming, "Mother, mother..."

Dugu Qianye, seeing Lan Mei’s condition, went over to help her up and asked, "What’s wrong?"

Lan Mei grasped Dugu Qianye’s hand tightly, her voice a mix of excitement and anxiety, "Master, I feel it, my mother is still alive, but she’s suffering; she’s in pain right now, I can feel it!"

"Really?!" Dugu Qianye was also very pleased. They had always assumed that given the circumstances back then, Lan Mei’s mother definitely wouldn’t have survived, but she was still alive!

"Tongtong, do you know the Phoenix Tree Forest?"

"I’ve heard of it, it seems to be where the Phoenix Clan lives," Bei Tong replied.

"Then do you know how to get there?" Dugu Qianye asked.

Bei Tong shook her head and said, "I’ve only heard of it, and don’t know its location. It is said to be very secretive, and ordinary people can’t find it. I’ve heard my master mention it once or twice."

"Master? Maybe he knows. Let’s go back and ask him," Dugu Qianye then looked at Lan Mei and Xiaohuo and said, "You two go back into the Refining Demon Pot for now. If they find out that you are still alive, resolving this will become troublesome."

"Okay."

Dugu Qianye put Xiaohuo and Lan Mei back into the Refining Demon Pot, Hao Pengyou summoned Xiaowu and led Dugu Qianye and Bei Tong away.

Shortly after they left, two golden shadows flew over.

"How could they be gone," said one of them, looking around puzzled.

"Are you really sure it’s come back? Wasn’t it supposed to be a dead egg? How could it have survived?" another person said skeptically.

"The oppressive aura we just felt, you felt it too, didn’t you? How come it’s gone once we’re here?" the first person to speak said, looking at the messy footprints on the grass. "They must have already left. We need to hurry back and tell the King this news."

"Okay."

The two then transformed into two golden phoenixes and flew away with flapping wings.

Xiao Wu brought some people to the nearest city, used the Transmission Array to go to a big city, and then transferred again. Along the way, they also met people who greeted Bei Tong. Dugu Qianye noticed that when Bei Tong talked to these people, he seemed like a different person, cold, and didn’t talk much, saying he had to go back after a few words. His attitude was lukewarm, but those people were warmly saying they hoped he would visit them in the future and to send their regards to his master.

"Who are these people?" Hao Pengyou noticed that every place they went, Bei Tong met some people and asked.

"These are people from the family powers here. Sometimes they come to master for elixirs and such. That’s how I know them," Bei Tong said.

"How high is master’s alchemy level?" Dugu Qianye asked.

"Master can now at least refine twelfth-grade elixirs. That’s what I’ve seen, maybe master can refine even higher ones, but he never said," Tongtong said. "Master is really amazing, he knows about alchemy, Artifact Refining, formations, and everything!"

Dugu Qianye suddenly thought of a question and pulled Hao Pengyou aside to ask, "If master is so amazing, why didn’t he come back to find grandmaster to heal him?"

Hao Pengyou didn’t expect Dugu Qianye to ask him that and said, "Because when master was injured and went to find grandmaster, for some reason, they had a big argument. Grandmaster, in a fit of anger, declared that he would not heal master unless he was on his last breath, and commanded others not to help master either."

"What? Even if you’re angry, you can’t really let master’s old injuries worsen, can you?" Dugu Qianye’s impression of this so-called grandmaster soured a bit. Even if you have a fight, you can’t just ignore them, right?

"But later, grandmaster did want to heal master, but master went crazy and absolutely refused to let grandmaster treat him. That really made us, his fellow disciples, suffer. Sigh, you have no idea, back then we..."

"Stop right there, don’t give me your sob stories. Master’s temperament is all because of how you guys spoiled him," Dugu Qianye said, cutting off Hao Pengyou. Alright, the master also has an irritable temper, probably just clashed with grandmaster.

After several transfers, they arrived at a valley.

"Is this the place?" Hao Pengyou asked, looking at the empty valley.

"You call yourself a Formation student, and you can’t even tell there’s an Illusion Array here? If master is inside, you’re definitely going to get a thrashing again," Dugu Qianye shook his head and said.

"You can see it, can you solve it?" Hao Pengyou inquired.

"No. That’s why I plan to follow Tongtong’s steps," Dugu Qianye said, looking at Tongtong.

"And you still laugh at me!" Hao Pengyou glared at Dugu Qianye.

"What, do you want to try my tickle powder again?" Dugu Qianye glared back.

"Fine, you win." Upon hearing about the tickle powder, Hao Pengyou quickly surrendered.

Seeing the way the two interacted, Bei Tong laughed and said, "You two, follow my steps. Otherwise, you’ll get lost in the Formation. Only master will be able to save you then."
