Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Flame Abyss(1)_1

"I wonder who Sister thinks is worthy of him?" Dugu Qianye was struggling to control her rising anger.

Dugu Qianlan smirked charmingly and said, "How about Sister herself? Sister is only in her sixties now and has already reached the Divine King Level. Surely, I can keep him company for a very long time."

Dugu Qianye found herself amused, nearly failing to catch her breath. Only sixty-something years old!

Well, although being in one’s sixties was considered quite young for a cultivator, that was still much older than them! Dugu Qianye looked at Zi Xiao with full sympathy in her eyes: This tender grass has caught the eye of an old cow!

Zi Xiao’s face was as black as the bottom of Dugu Qianye’s cooking pot. He immediately shooed her away: "Get out!"

Dugu Qianlan hadn’t expected to be kicked out by Zi Xiao right after speaking. She didn’t leave, but instead brazenly insisted, "Young Master, all that I said is true. You won’t have a good outcome with this good-for-nothing. It would be better to be with me. I am also a young lady of the Dugu Clan, my status is far higher than this incapable trash who can’t cultivate!"

Dugu Qianye was rendered speechless by Dugu Qianlan’s audacity. She was digging right under her nose with such blatant disregard! Indeed, when a person loses shame, even ghosts fear them!

Hearing Dugu Qianlan repeatedly calling Dugu Qianye worthless, Zi Xiao sent her flying out of the yard with a burst of Spiritual Power, causing her to crash heavily to the ground.

"Ouch!" Dugu Qianlan fell face-first, crying out in pain. But seeing the hostile aura emanating from Zi Xiao, she got up reluctantly and walked away. Before leaving, she still threw a flirtatious glance his way, saying, "Young Master, you might want to think it over!"

Watching Dugu Qianlan, Dugu Qianye no longer knew what words to use to describe her. Seeing Zi Xiao’s angry face, all her displeasure suddenly vanished, and she burst out laughing.

"You’re still laughing, someone’s trying to steal your man right in front of you, and you don’t care?" Zi Xiao said, feeling wronged.

"Heh, when did I ever not care? But I know you won’t be easily swayed, I’m just more at ease." Dugu Qianye reassured him, noticing his Peach Blossom Demon’s eyes flickering away. She saw his sexy lips pouting slightly, felt a ticklish sensation in her heart, and swiftly planted a kiss on his face, saying, "You’re mine!"

Zi Xiao hadn’t expected Dugu Qianye to kiss him first. Even though it was just a peck, it still made him exceedingly happy. He cradled her face, caressed her red lips, and leaned down to kiss her deeply. He had intended to keep it light, but touching her always made him lose control; he wanted to take more. Dugu Qianye’s response almost made him lose himself!

"Hehehehe." Suddenly, a child’s laughter interrupted their intimate moment.

Realizing that their actions had been witnessed, Dugu Qianye’s face instantly flushed with embarrassment. She followed the sound and saw a little head that had popped up over the wall, grinning at them.

The little boy looked to be only five or six years old, sitting on the shoulder of a Red Fire Ape, resting his hands on the wall, with his head leaning on it. When he saw Dugu Qianye looking over, he said, "I saw you playing kissy, hee hee!"

Dugu Qianye’s face turned even redder, and she asked the little boy, "Who are you? How did you get onto the wall of my yard?"

"This is clearly my little uncle’s yard. How did it become yours?" The little boy replied crisply, then patted the Red Fire Ape’s head and said, "Xiao Yi, I want to go down."

The Red Fire Ape helped the little boy down from its shoulder. He put the Red Fire Ape into his Spiritual Beast Space and then ran through the gate. Standing in front of Dugu Qianye, he asked, "Are you my little uncle’s daughter?"

Dugu Qianye nodded and asked, "You must be the son of my Fourth Uncle, Dugu Qianlin, right?"

Calling her father little uncle and being only five or six years old matched what Dugu Yilan had told her about the youngest son of her Fourth Uncle’s family.

"Eh? How did you know it was me?" the little boy asked curiously.

"Guessed it," Dugu Qianye said with a blink, "You still haven’t answered how you got onto the wall?"

"I saw Sister Qianlan coming here, so I followed. I had just hidden well when I saw her fall flat on her face. Then I crawled over to see who was so powerful, hee hee, and then I saw you guys playing kissy face!" Dugu Qianlin laughed wickedly.

"Ahem, when did you get back?" Dugu Qianye quickly changed the subject and handed over a pealed Spirit Fruit that Zi Xiao had prepared.

Dugu Qianlin wasn’t shy at all, he took the Spirit Fruit and started munching on it, talking between bites: "I came back yesterday. As soon as I got back, I heard people talking about you, so I thought I’d come and see if you’re really like what they say. If you were like they said, I’d have decided not to like you. But you’re okay, even though you can’t cultivate, you’re still a nice person. So, I’ve decided I like you, and if anyone bullies you, I’ll protect you."

"Pfft!" Dugu Qianye laughed at Dugu Qianlin’s words and pinched his face, "You’re so little, can you even protect me?"

Dugu Qianlin swatted away Dugu Qianye’s hand, confidently saying, "Of course I can. I’m going to be very powerful in the future, just like Uncle Five."

Zi Xiao, who was standing to the side, couldn’t stand it any longer and said to Dugu Qianlin, "I’ll protect my woman myself, you take care of your own woman."

"I don’t have a woman," Dugu Qianlin said. "I like her now, and I’m going to protect her."

"Then go find one!"

"No, I’m not going. How about sister Qianye become my woman instead?!"

Zi Xiao’s face turned so dark it couldn’t get any darker, while Dugu Qianye couldn’t stop laughing at the side. Right then, Dugu Yilan arrived to see Dugu Qianlin and Zi Xiao staring each other down, with Dugu Qianye laughing by herself.

"What’s so funny?" Dugu Yilan stepped forward and asked.

"Uncle Three just arrived, come in and take a seat," Dugu Qianye greeted, preparing to move some stools from the house, but Dugu Yilan stopped her.

"No need to bother, I’ve come to tell you that your other uncles have returned, and your great-grandma has sent me to call for you."

"Right now?"

"Yes. Qianlin, let’s go see great-grandma," Dugu Yilan called out to Dugu Qianlin.

Dugu Qianlin rubbed his sore eyes and said, "Hmph, I’ll come back later to have a staring contest with you! You just wait!" Then he went over to Dugu Yilan’s side.

Dugu Qianye stood up, and Zi Xiao grabbed her, saying, "I’ll go with you."

Dugu Qianlin ran to Dugu Qianye’s side, grabbing her hand and smugly lifting his chin at Zi Xiao. Zi Xiao snorted but didn’t argue with him.

The four arrived at the main courtyard where guards were already waiting at the entrance.

This time, they weren’t heading to the Council Hall but to the main hall. Upon entering, Dugu Qianye saw that many people were already seated. Feng Sanmei, seeing Dugu Qianye come in, waved and said, "Qianye, come sit here," and even had two more chairs placed beside her own.
