Chapter 1580: Chapter 1573: Huayu Ting

"Are you also... from the Demon Clan?" Fei Yu asked cautiously.

"No, we are from the distant Western Continent, it just so happened that we landed in West Outer Heaven, so we are quite familiar with the Demon Clan," Tangmo explained.

"Is that so?" Hearing her words, Fei Yu seemed somewhat relieved, her eyes brightening up, not as dim as before.

"How did you end up in this place, is your home nearby?" Tangmo asked curiously.

"No, I, I am here to look for someone, I don’t live here..." Fei Yu waved her hand and said.

"Who are you looking for?" Tangmo asked further.

Fei Yu took a deep breath and after a long hesitation, timidly said, "I, I am here to find my own child."

"Child, you are already a mother?" Tangmo raised her eyebrows, somewhat surprised.

"Um..." Fei Yu shyly nodded her head and then took off her hood, revealing her face and ears.

She appeared to be about twenty-four or twenty-five years old, with delicate and gentle features, exuding an innate charm from the Qingqiu Clan. Coupled with her fluffy ears, she was even more enchantingly attractive.

Her gaze was soft and serene, conveying a fragile charm that evoked pity. Whenever she frowned, even Tangmo couldn’t help feeling guilty, always feeling that she had wronged her.

Fei Yu was dressed neatly; although her clothes were soiled, the fine quality was still evident, indicating her status was not low.

Her figure had a certain grace, something Tangmo could clearly perceive. Unlike the lean members of the Demon Clan they had encountered, this fact supported her identity as a mother.

"How old is your child?" Tangmo asked with concern.

"He, he is only six and a half... I, I am really worried about him, if something happens to him, how can I explain it to the Manor Lord... I am an incompetent wife, I can’t even protect my own child..." Fei Yu became emotional when she mentioned her child, her eyes reddening as she began to sob.

"No, don’t worry too much, your child should be fine, you can stay with us for tonight and tomorrow we will help you look for him," Tangmo comforted her.

"I, I, I am so worried about him... because of me, the Manor Lord has already lost one child, and now this has happened, I am really useless..." Fei Yu seemed to feel more guilty rather than comforted by Tangmo, tears dribbling down her face.

"Calm down, don’t be too sad, your child might have already returned home. Anyway, don’t think too negatively, if you collapse, how will you find your child?" Tangmo continued to soothe her.

"The Manor Lord has already sent people out to look for him, but I have let him down, the child was lost because of me, I must find him back, I can’t let the same tragedy happen again. I, I don’t want to see the Manor Lord despair again..." Fei Yu, sniffling, tearfully said.

"Since your Manor Lord has already sent people out, there must be good news, try not to be upset," Tangmo kept reassuring her.

"I’m sorry, I get like this when I’m upset. I haven’t slept well since my child went missing, so I tend to lose control of my emotions, I’m sorry..." Fei Yu apologized while wiping her face and sniffling.

"You don’t need to feel so guilty," Tangmo waved her hand and smiled, "Speaking of which, your relationship with your Manor Lord seems really good, is he also from the Demon Clan?"

"He is not..." Fei Yu was about to speak when suddenly it seemed she remembered something, so she quickly covered her mouth and stopped talking, watching Tangmo warily.

"What’s wrong, can’t I ask?" Seeing her reaction, Tangmo asked, puzzled.

"Sorry, I can’t, can’t tell anyone about the Manor Lord’s identity... I am sorry..." Fei Yu said with widened eyes and guilt.

"Ah, it’s okay, we were not particularly curious, just asking casually," Tangmo said with a smile.

Even though she said she wouldn’t ask, Tangmo was still overwhelmingly curious. She was very curious about who exactly was the Manor Lord that Fei Yu mentioned.

Because from the information already obtained, the energy of the husband she mentioned should be extraordinary. Just from the phrase "send someone to find," it can be inferred that her husband is definitely not an ordinary man.

"Strange, a woman from the Demon Clan, to have reached such a position in Kyushu, it is indeed somewhat puzzling," Tangmo muttered to himself, head bowed.

"Could she be a forbidden consort of some major figure? But that doesn’t quite make sense either. Looking at her, that man must treat her well, they are even husband and wife, which is weird..." Tangmo still felt puzzled.

"What, what are you talking about?" Fei Yu stared at them, asking somewhat guiltily.

"Oh, no, nothing," Tangmo was taken aback for a moment, then quickly shook his head and smiled, "Anyway, you stay with us for the night, and we will help you look tomorrow. Don’t worry, we have also been graced by the Demon Clan before, so we have no ulterior motives towards you."

"Thank you, thank you all Manor Lords..." After a pause, Fei Yu widened her eyes and asked a bit anxiously, "But, I, I still don’t know your names..."

"Ah, sorry, our oversight..." Tangmo gave a smile and then introduced himself, "Just call me Moumou, I’m a close attendant to the Saint. These are the four guardians of the Saint, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise."

"The Saint?" Fei Yu stared blankly at him, asking with a puzzled face.

"Oh, the one in the carriage, that’s our Saint," Tangmo explained, "The Saint pities the people, coming from the west to the east to Shengyuan Prefecture, asking for Emperor Wu to extend his grace and not to bring disaster upon West Outer Heaven."

"You came for West Outer Heaven?" Fei Yu asked, somewhat excitedly.

"Exactly." Tangmo nodded in response.

"Thank you," Fei Yu said with genuine appreciation, "Though I am married, my heart is still with West Outer Heaven, and I am grateful to you for coming for the sake of West Outer Heaven and the Demon Clan."

"No need for thanks, after all, when we landed, we were also cared for by the Demon Clan, so this is also our way of returning the favor," Tangmo waved her hand and said.

"West Outer Heaven... how is it?" Fei Yu asked with anxious trepidation.

"Hmm? The war has ended, and West Outer Heaven is now in a period of rapid recovery," Tangmo said.

"That’s great, that’s great," hearing her words, Fei Yu showed a sincere smile.

Seeing her smile, Tangmo felt somewhat guilty. When Tangmo left, the Southern Yao Race had already decided to unify West Outer Heaven from the north, which would mean another war, and they were powerless to stop it.

But no matter what, it is better to solve all the encountered troubles at present. This day has also been quite tough, being snatched back and forth by two groups of people, troubles they had not encountered before.

No matter the reason, Tangmo always felt that the Advance Team was made of people, not livestock, and should not be forcibly taken. Therefore, in her view, whether it be Heterogeneous Hall or the Wuting Clan, neither were good people to them. And whoever dares to prevent them from going to Shengyuan Prefecture, they would be their enemy.

Meanwhile, the newly appointed Patriarch of the Huayu Family, Huayu Ting, was currently dealing with household affairs inside the manor. During this period, the Huayu Family had gone through misfortune, with his father and younger brother dying one after another for various reasons, sending off both the grey-haired and the young. After handling these funeral affairs, Huayu Ting appeared somewhat haggard.

He paced back and forth in his own room, seeming very uneasy about something. Soon, the shadow of the candle flickered on the windowsill, and Huayu Ting took a deep breath and shouted without turning his head, "Come out!"

"Young Lord is indeed formidable," A shadow emerged from the darkness, bowing respectfully.

"In the middle of the night, Heterogeneous Hall pays a visit not through the main entrance, but climbing over the wall?" Huayu Ting turned around, squinting his eyes at the man dressed in night-wear.

"The Saint and his party were robbed within Rainbow Government territory, I ask the Young Lord to assist and bring them to our manor," the man in black said respectfully.

"Are you ordering me?" Huayu Ting asked with a stern tone, hands behind his back.

"I dare not, it is by the order from above. Young Lord should be aware, your elder brother..." the man in black hesitated.
