Chapter 62: Chapter 62: Reunion (2)_1
"It’s you!" Dugu Qianye recognized Zi Xiao at a glance.
"Ah, you remember me!"
Zi Xiao ran up to Dugu Qianye, his smile lifting the corners of his mouth, his peach blossom eyes tenderly fixed on her. His smile was so enchanting that it outshone the flowers in the forest.
Uh, does he need to smile so seductively?!
"You recognize me?" Dugu Qianye was slightly surprised. The last time they met, she was in her female form, but now she was in her male form.
"Of course... I don’t recognize you, but I recognize them!" Zi Xiao pointed to Xiaoyin and Liehuo, who were in battle. But I’ve known all along it was you! He swallowed that last thought. Hehe.
Ci Hun glanced at the disheveled assassins, licked his lips, and said, "How could we miss out on such fun?"
"Who are you?" the leader asked.
"We’re the ones who are going to kill you!" Ci Hun chuckled, engaging with the opponent’s Phantom Beast in battle. Zi Xiao joined Dugu Qianye in the fight. Although he was only in his twenties, he was already a Phantom Ancestor master! The two stood back to back, attacking the enemies in front of them.
With the addition of Zi Xiao and Ci Hun, the stalemate quickly tipped to one side.
"Boss, we can’t keep going like this!"
The leader saw that many of his brothers were exhausted of their Phantom Power, and Dugu Qianye and Zi Xiao still hadn’t run out. Moreover, most of his own men were already injured. He waved his right hand and said, "Retreat!"
The twelve people quickly left the forest, and Dugu Qianye didn’t intend to chase them down to kill them all. With assassins like these, even if you killed them, the organization would send others.
After retracting Xiaoyin and Liehuo into the Refining Demon Pot, Dugu Qianye gave a fist and palm salute to Zi Xiao and Ci Hun, saying, "Thank you both for coming to my aid."
"So, how do you plan to thank us?" Ci Hun asked with a mischievous grin, circling around Dugu Qianye.
"If you need help in the future..."
"Don’t talk about the future. Since we saved you, you should repay us with your body!" Zi Xiao interrupted Dugu Qianye.
"Uh." Dugu Qianye was stunned by Zi Xiao’s words. Although grateful for their assistance, it wasn’t to the extent of offering her body in return. Besides, even without them, she would have been fine.
"Master Zi Xiao is jesting," Dugu Qianye said with a forced smile.
"You’re not willing? Then I will offer myself to you, how about that?" Zi Xiao wasn’t discouraged by Dugu Qianye’s response.
"Master Zi Xiao, if there is anything you need in the future, just let me know. I must be going now," Dugu Qianye said and then turned to leave.
"We’ve fought together, and just like that, you’re leaving?" Zi Xiao called out to Dugu Qianye.
Dugu Qianye stopped, turned around, and asked, "What else?"
"You should at least take us to your place for some tea and a meal!" Zi Xiao said.
"It’s too early for a meal right now. There’s no food," Dugu Qianye replied.
"We can make our own. You could cook for us to show your sincerity," Zi Xiao suggested.
"I don’t know how to cook," Dugu Qianye replied.
"No problem, I can cook, and I’ll cook for you!" Zi Xiao insisted.
Uh, who’s thanking whom here?
On the side, Ci Hun, having heard Zi Xiao’s words, lowered his head to count ants and muttered under his breath, "I don’t know him, I don’t know him..."
Could someone tell him if this shirker was really his Pledged Master?!
"Oh man, I just remembered my big-breasted, big-butt beauty is waiting for me, I gotta run!" Overwhelmed, Ci Hun hurriedly took off.
In the end, Dugu Qianye still couldn’t outlast Zi Xiao’s shirking and ended up bringing him back to the Mo Residence.
Dugu Qianye arrived at Mo Feng’s yard with Zi Xiao and, sure enough, found Mo Ziqing there. Seeing Mo Ziqing, Dugu Qianye smiled and said, "I knew you’d be here."
"Qianye, you’re back?" Mo Ziqing said joyfully upon seeing Dugu Qianye.
"Yeah. This is, uh, a friend of mine. It only dawned on me when I got back that I don’t seem to have a place to stay. So, I came to find you," Dugu Qianye said.
Mo Ziqing glanced at Zi Xiao, who wore a purple robe and had peach blossom eyes, features that could rival any woman’s. If he were a woman, he would surely be a calamity, Mo Ziqing slandered in his heart.
"Your yard has been ready for a while. They prepared it when your uncles came back; it’s just that you haven’t returned, so you didn’t know. Shall I take you there now?"
"I want to check on Mo Feng first. Would you mind showing him to a guest room meanwhile?"
"Sure. Mo Feng is inside the house; go ahead in," Mo Ziqing said.
Hearing Dugu Qianye had arranged for a guest room for himself, Zi Xiao objected, "No, I want to live in the same yard as you."
Mo Ziqing disagreed, saying, "I don’t think that’s appropriate."
He certainly wasn’t about to agree to let some other man stay in his sister’s yard!
"I don’t care; I want to stay with you. You’re the only one I know here!" Zi Xiao clung to Dugu Qianye’s clothes.
Having experienced his persistence, Dugu Qianye said somewhat helplessly to Mo Ziqing, "Then let him stay in my yard."
Watching Mo Ziqing’s face show clear reluctance, Zi Xiao revealed a victorious smile.
"Demon." Mo Ziqing muttered inwardly.
As Dugu Qianye entered the room, she saw that Mo Feng looked much better. Mo Ziqing and Zi Xiao also entered the room.
Mo Feng turned his head slightly and said to Dugu Qianye, "Sis, you’re back! I heard your voice even from outside."
Dugu Qianye approached and, as usual, checked his injuries.
"Ziqing, you’ve taken great care of him! His injury has healed much faster than I expected. At this rate, he could fully recover within a month!" Dugu Qianye said to Ziqing with a smile.
"I just did as you instructed," Mo Ziqing chuckled, still unaccustomed to being praised by his younger sister.
After checking on Mo Feng, Dugu Qianye followed Mo Ziqing to the yard the Mo Residence had arranged for her. The yard was a bit isolated, with just a three-story small building. Inside there was an ancient tree, a large flowerbed, a pond, and behind the house, a bamboo grove.
Mo Ziqing led Dugu Qianye and Zi Xiao to the yard and told Dugu Qianye, "Father and the uncles were going to set up the front yard for you, but Mo Feng said you preferred quiet, so they prepared this yard for you. This used to be your mother’s court."
Dugu Qianye walked in, touched the big tree, and caressed the stone table underneath it. Was this where her mother had once rested?
She entered the house to see everything furnished anew.
"Father and the others cleaned out the old stuff and put it in the room at the very end. The rest they got new for you," Mo Ziqing explained.
Dugu Qianye nodded and walked to that room, finding it full of items common to any young lady’s home. She brushed over them and felt her mother’s presence.
